"Keep hitting." Bai Yutian said in a deep voice, then continued to get up and slam into the city gate.
The reinforcements of the Tianyi Army have arrived. In order to resist the attack of the Tianyi Army, most of the Zhou army has been held back, and their available manpower is getting smaller and smaller.
Finally, a crack appeared at the connection between the city gate and the city wall.
Seeing this, Bai Yutian and others smiled, but Shi Wanlang put away his proud expression.
He did not dare to delay any longer, so he quickly led a group of troops, passed through the battlefield, and headed straight for Bai Yutian.
"Boom!" There was a huge sound, like a chain reaction, and there were loud bangs at the city gate immediately.
The city gate was finally knocked open by Bai Yutian and others, revealing a huge gap.
"Shi Wanlang, you completely lost this time." Deng Yongle laughed and said, feeling very happy in his heart.
He had played against Shi Wanlang and admired the latter very much.
Shi Wanlang's use of troops is very understandable to most people. He is somewhat similar to Shanuguo's settlers, both of whom like to take risks with their troops.
The Shanu Kingdom used to like to use surprise troops to win, and it was first used on the battlefield by An Deng, one of the ten heroes of Shanu.
However, facing Bai Yutian, Shi Wanlang ended up in a disastrous defeat today.
Shi Wanlang's face was ashen and he didn't say much. He came directly to face Bai Yutian, but he was stopped by Deng Yongle's people.
There may be some numerical difference between the two sides, but they do not have an absolute advantage.
Now that the city gate has been breached, Bai Yutian and others want to leave, how can Shi Wanlang stop them.
Seeing the hope of escape, the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty became more brave and gained confidence in fighting. They didn't know where the strength came from, and their combat effectiveness even increased.
"Hahahaha." In front of the city gate, only Bai Yutian's hearty laughter was left.
This siege operation was declared a complete failure as the city gate was breached.
Shi Wanlang ordered his men to stop the pursuit. There were more than 30,000 soldiers of Deng Yonglian outside. Although they had withdrawn, they were still a threat.
The manpower he brought has also been lost a lot. If he insists on pursuing them, it will be dangerous.
"General, are you just going to let them go like this?" someone said unwillingly.
"Then what can you do? Go and capture the Emperor of Zhou alive." Shi Wanlang said angrily.
Today's failure made him feel very bad.
The city gate was forced, and Bai Yutian led the army to advance at full speed. When they came out, they did not see Deng Yonglian's army, and their expressions suddenly darkened.
"This Deng Yongle!" Deng Yongle scolded angrily. At this time, he could no longer care about his friendship with Deng Yongle. What happened today really made Deng Yongle extremely disappointed with Deng Yongle.
If Deng Yonglian insists on attacking the city, Shi Wanlang will inevitably allocate part of his force to deal with Deng Yonglian, and by cooperating internally and externally, they can escape more smoothly.
Just because of Deng Yonglian, they lost nearly 10,000 more horses.
It can be said that even without the previous incident, Deng Yonglian is still a deserter and will receive the most severe punishment.
"Your Majesty, the Tianyi Army behind has stopped pursuing." At this time, someone behind him came over to report, with a look of joy on his face.
Bai Yutian hummed and nodded slightly.
Shi Wanlang did not choose to continue the pursuit, which was within his expectations.
The nearest city from here is only thirty miles away. If we march at a high speed, we should be able to reach it at dawn.
"Deng Yongle, order the army to advance at full speed and rest after arriving at a safe place." Bai Yutian called Deng Yongle and said to him.
Soon, Deng Yongle issued the order and ordered the soldiers to advance at full speed.
After Bai Yutian left, reinforcements from the Tianyi Army finally arrived. When they arrived in Xiangcheng, they saw only corpses all over the ground, including soldiers and civilians. The ground was dyed red with blood.
Many people died in Xiangcheng tonight.
Shi Wanqin and Shi Wanlang look very similar, but the difference is that Shi Wanqin's eyes are very deep, and he looks very deep.
If he wasn't a smart man, Shi Wanqin wouldn't have been able to bring a team to the scale of today's rebel army.
"Second brother, how's it going?" After Shi Wanqin saw Shi Wanlang, he immediately walked over and asked nervously.
"Brother, I'm fine. I just let the emperor run away and couldn't capture him alive."
Speaking of this, Shi Wanlang's face was full of regret. If he had been more cautious, he might not have been broken out by Bai Yutian.
Hearing this, Shi Wanqin also looked at the destroyed city gate. Judging from the traces, it should have been destroyed with brute force.
"It's good that you're fine." Shi Wanqin finished speaking and looked at the people beside him, "You go and count the casualties immediately."
This time, it looked like Bai Yu was escaping in panic, but in fact, the Tianyi Army also suffered a lot of losses.
Especially in the first confrontation, Bai Yutian's cavalry charge almost wiped out a team of Tian's Rebel Army.
"Brother, this Emperor of Zhou has really changed. He is not simple." After a long time, Shi Wanlang stood up, held Shi Wanqin's hand and said.
There was still deep hatred in his eyes. This was his first real failure.
In the past, they all knew that Emperor Bai Yutian of the Great Zhou Dynasty was weak and incompetent, and favored his powerful ministers, which led to Gu Taizhong becoming extremely powerful and controlling the court.
When Bai Yutian went on a personal expedition and defeated the army of the Shanu Kingdom, they also pointed out which talent appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty and helped the Great Zhou defeat the Shanu Kingdom.
Even if Gu Taizhong was liquidated and the Gu family was destroyed later, they did not think it was Bai Yutian's fault, but that Bai Yutian had noble people to help him.
It wasn't until today that Shi Wanlang knew that Bai Yutian was indeed someone not to be underestimated.
After a night of marching, Bai Yutian and others finally arrived at the bottom of a city.
Coincidentally, Deng Yonglian also chose to come to this city.
When Bai Yutian appeared completely in front of him, Deng Yonglian was almost shocked.
He thought that Bai Yutian had been captured by the Tianyi Army a long time ago, and he had even made plans to start negotiations with the Tianyi Army.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty, I am guilty." Deng Yonglian quickly kowtowed and apologized.
"No." Bai Yutian looked cold and shook his head, which made Deng Yonglian stunned. "If you make such a big mistake, you won't have to be an official in the future."
Hearing Bai Yutian say this, Deng Yonglian suddenly panicked, crawled forward a few steps, and grabbed Bai Yutian's sleeve, "No, Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please give me a chance."
, let me plead guilty and make meritorious service, and I will definitely help your majesty to eliminate the Tianyi Army."
However, Deng Yonglian's begging for mercy only made Bai Yutian look at him coldly, showing no mercy at all.
At first, Bai Yutian decided to escort Deng Yonglian back to Tailin to await his fate.
Although Deng Yongle looked unbearable, he did not try to persuade him.
After all, Deng Yonglian's direct withdrawal of troops was indeed extremely excessive. If it weren't for Bai Yutian, they might not have been able to leave Xiangcheng.
