"It seems that you have returned victorious this time?"
"I have been worried about you, sir!"
Pu San Zhongyi felt incredible when he saw Zhu Xi's quick return.
"Of course!"
"How can I come back if I don't win?"
Zhu Xi responded with a smile.
"Since it went so smoothly, sir, please tell me quickly how your trip to Song Camp went this time!"
Pu San Zhongyi was of course eager to know the process.
"Isn't this... all of this based on the word 'reason'?"
"So if you move the world with 'reason', you can not only defeat thousands of troops, but also stabilize the country!"
"In this world, only 'reason' is the way for people!"
"Prince Liang, just listen to what I, Zhu Yuanhui, have to say!"
"This time, I, Zhu Yuanhui, in the name of 'reason', am not only talking about the generals of the Song Army, but also their military advisor Yang Cunzhong...!"
Zhu Xi complained to Pu San about his loyalty.
Guangcheng Pass.
"Xu thief!"
"If you still want to live, take your people out of the city and surrender!"
"Otherwise, when our commander-in-chief breaks through the Guangcheng Pass, captures Ruzhou City, and captures you, then don't blame our commander-in-chief for being unkind!"
Shao Hongyuan led his army to Guangcheng Pass.
"snort…!"
"If you have the guts, why don't you come and knock on me?"
"Our Majesty is waiting for you behind closed doors!"
Xin Qiji immediately responded to Shao Hongyuan for Xu Xian.
"good!"
"When the time comes, just don't run back to Luoyang!"
Shao Hongyuan continued to threaten.
"Our Majesty has said that as long as you have the ability to capture Guangcheng Pass, our Majesty will never flee to Luoyang!"
Xin Qiji responded to Xu Xian's behalf.
"good!"
"Then just wait and see!"
"Tell me to go down and send my whole army to attack. We must capture Guangcheng Pass and capture Xu Thief alive!"
Shao Hongyuan began to give orders.
Then Shao Hongyuan's Song army began to rush towards Guangcheng Pass in dense numbers, and even flints were thrown towards Guangcheng Pass.
Because the guarding army was well prepared, they immediately set up countless strong tree branch nets to block all the flints.
Then they pushed all the tree branches ignited by flint into the crowd of Song troops attacking the city. As a result, the Song troops were burned all over by fire, and there were countless casualties in an instant.
Seeing this, Shao Hongyuan had no choice but to immediately order his people to stop throwing flints, and ordered the siege soldiers to withdraw temporarily and prepare to organize a second wave of offensive.
On the city tower, a mysterious general wearing a mask was closely monitoring the Song army's movements.
"General Lee!"
"It seems that your prediction is correct. Shao Hongyuan really wants to use firearms and infantry to attack our Guangcheng Pass!"
"Fortunately, we were prepared in advance and prepared!"
"Otherwise, Guangcheng Pass would be completely destroyed by now!"
At this time, another general walked up to the masked general.
"After all, that was once my army. Of course I know exactly how they fought!"
"This place is so dangerous, Commander Xin, please stay away for now and see how I deal with them!"
This masked general is Li Mingzhong.
"I, Xin Tanfu, am also a soldier. How can I be as valuable as you, General Li, say?"
"I can just take this opportunity to learn some command and combat experience from you, General Li!"
Military Advisor Xin was naturally Xin Qiji.
"Military Commander Xin!"
"You are laughing!"
"In your Majesty's tent, servant San Zhongyi and disciple Dan Hexi are all famous generals of the past generation. They are no worse than me, Li Mingzhong!"
Li Mingzhong now seemed less serious than before.
"Report to General Li and Military Advisor Xin!"
"Those Song soldiers began to gather again. It seems that they are preparing for the next wave of attacks!"
At this time, a general came over and interrupted the two people's conversation.
"good!"
"That's what I'm waiting for!"
"You tell us to go down and prepare everyone to fight back!"
Li Mingzhong immediately cheered up.
At this time, the attacking Song army did not adopt the previous method of throwing flints to cooperate with the infantry attack. Instead, they first sent a large number of archers to attack the defending troops with flaming arrowheads.
Upon seeing this, Li Mingzhong immediately ordered his people to retreat to the rear, set up a catapult on the gate tower, and began to attack the archers with stones.
Upon seeing this, Shao Hongyuan immediately ordered the infantry to prepare ladders and begin climbing the stairs.
Upon seeing this, Li Mingzhong personally led his soldiers to block the Song army's attack.
Although some Song troops took the opportunity to board the Guan Tower, they were quickly eliminated by Li Mingzhong and his men.
Shao Hongyuan saw that the capture of Guanlou was unsuccessful, so he immediately ordered the army to retreat, and then continued to attack by throwing flints.
But unexpectedly, a group of armored iron bulls suddenly rushed out from the gate and rushed towards Shao Hongyuan's army like crazy.
Seeing this, Shao Hongyuan could only hurriedly order the soldiers to throw flints at the iron bulls.
However, these iron bulls had already gone crazy, running rampant and breaking through Shao Hongyuan's formation.
Of course, Shao Hongyuan had heard about the Iron Ox Formation used by the famous Qi general Tian Dan, but he did not expect that the troops guarding the pass would also use this formation, so he was a little caught off guard.
Just as Shao Hongyuan's army was preparing to reorganize its army for battle after avoiding this group of mad cows.
A large cauldron suddenly came out from behind this group of mad cows, instantly causing Shao Hongyuan's army to become even more confused.
Shao Hongyuan had no choice but to fight with this army in a hurry, hoping to destroy it first.
But I didn't expect that the soldiers in this army were all highly skilled in martial arts, and their spear skills were all superb, even making Shao Hongyuan a little unprepared.
So Shao Hongyuan had no choice but to order his soldiers to retreat while fighting.
But unexpectedly, suddenly at the city gate, another army with a banner with the word "Yue" rushed out. This army was not inferior to the army that was using guns to fight.
The two armies fought in and out of Shao Hongyuan's army, making it impossible for Shao Hongyuan's army to retreat normally.
Seeing this, Shao Hongyuan had no choice but to turn back and continue fighting with the two armies.
At this time, another army suddenly rushed out from the door. This army was led by Li Mingzhong, who had been in command before, and headed straight for Shao Hongyuan.
The Song army in Shao Hongyuan's hands was already low in morale and unwilling to fight. It was already difficult to deal with the two large cauldron troops that rushed out before. Now that he saw another continuous large cauldron army rushing out, he immediately panicked and stopped obeying.
Shao Hongyuan took command and began to flee eastward.
The army that wields the spear is naturally the Yang Family Army led by Yang Polu, and the one with the flag "Yue" is the Yue Family Army led by Yue Lin.
When these two armies saw the Song army fleeing, they did not give any chance to pursue them.
Shao Hongyuan was already the first to escape at this time, but he didn't expect that the cauldron army would pursue him so quickly.
So Shao Hongyuan wanted to organize these fleeing troops to block the chasing Dafu Army to avoid suffering greater losses.
However, these fleeing Song troops no longer listened to Shao Hongyuan's orders. They all ran to their own ends, and some even began to abandon their armor in order to run faster.
