Xu Sheng's angry horizontal knife could not stop Pei Xingyan's copper hammer. The horizontal knife had just raised the hammer and had already reached his head. The copper hammer hit the back of the horizontal knife, and with a sound, it rammed the horizontal knife into Xu Sheng's iron helmet. Almost at the same time, the copper hammer followed the horizontal knife to hit his head.

The iron helmet was smashed into pieces, and a big head scattered like a broken watermelon. The head crumbled, and the red blood and white brain matter mixed together and stirred out. Because the distance was too close, a few pieces of minced meat stuck to Pei Xingyan's face. He took a step back, raised his hand to wipe the flesh and blood on his face, and did not take a look at Xu Shengqiu, who slowly fell down, striding towards the trapped Tang cavalry.

"The general has an order, and you will not kill me if you surrender!"

Pei Xingyan's personal soldiers shouted loudly, and then the Yan Yun soldiers surrounding the Tang cavalry shouted in unison.

"Surrender and not kill!"

"Surrender and not kill!"

The Tang cavalry trapped in the gun formation were still fighting to the death. As the shouts sounded, the Yanyun army soldiers retreated and left a clearing. Although the battle lasted only one stick of incense from the beginning to now, more than half of the Tang cavalry died in battle, and almost all the remaining people were injured. Less than 100 people were still riding on the war horses, and even three hundred people could stand. There was no doubt that if the Yanyun army soldiers did not retreat, they would be slaughtered for at most one stick of incense.

Pei Xingyan walked to the front of the formation and looked at the blood-covered Tang cavalry in front of him and said loudly: "Your Highness the King of Yan, you are also a Han family. You are both from ordinary families and your brothers from Yan Yun. This battle was entirely caused by the emperor in the city, and the King of Yan had no choice. If you are willing to surrender, the King of Yan will treat you as good as my brothers from Yan Yun."

"surrender?"

A Tang army captain wiped away the blood from his forehead, smiled bitterly and shook his head and walked to everyone. He first clasped his fists and bowed to Pei Xingyan, and said solemnly: "Thank you for not killing the general, but..."

He looked back at the comrades and said hoarsely and sadly: "The brothers who selected the rushing battle this time are all in Chang'an City. This is the decree issued by His Majesty the Emperor himself. Everyone naturally understands what it is. If they surrender, our wife, children and parents in our family will not be able to end up in a good way. From the day we chose us to leave the city to fight, we would have no way out."

"We surrender, and it will harm our family."

He looked at Pei Xingyan's voice and said, "So thanked the general for his kindness and thanked the King of Yan for his kindness, but we cannot obey the order!"

"We don't want to die!"

A Tang soldier who was only sixteen or seventeen years old wailed and fell to the ground. He looked at the captain and cried, "I don't want to die... I haven't lived enough yet, I haven't married and had children yet, I haven't passed on the family line for my Liu family! I don't want to die..."

"Who wants to die?"

The captain asked with a tragic smile: "Ask brothers, who wants to die?"

"But if we don't die, what should we do if our parents at home?"

He looked at his soldiers and shouted: "I won't force you to leave your weapons if you are willing to surrender. The King of Yan will definitely not deceive us. You also know that Japan is bound to die today. There is no need for the Yanyun Army to let us go a long way. If you still care about your relatives in your family, stand with me, and the brothers of Yanyun Army will do nothing, and we will break ourselves!"

Hearing these words, some of the Tang cavalry couldn't help but throw the sword down and squatted on the ground and burst into tears. Some people walked to the captain with a blank expression, with a hint of spirit in their eyes.

"idiot!"

Pei Xingyan cursed and said, "If you don't die, you will join my Yanyun army and tell the truth when you arrive outside the city early tomorrow morning when you call out. Will Li Yuan still dare to order your family to be killed? If he does this, he will definitely lose the hearts of the people!"

"yes!"

Someone's eyes lit up and seemed to see a way out: "As long as we tell this matter in front of the battlefield, the emperor will definitely not dare to order a murder!"

The captain was stunned, then threw the sword to the ground in dejection, and couldn't help but sigh, thinking in his heart that as long as we talked about this, the emperor might not attack our family due to helplessness, but the emperor's reputation would also plummet. King Yan... is very scheming!

He came from a noble family and naturally thought of things much deeper than those soldiers from poor families. At this time, he even thought of the purpose of King Yan doing this. But who can withstand the temptation of survival? There are not so many things like taking death as if it were. Most of the people who are praised are lies, and no one wants to die. Even if he can live for a few more days, it is better than dying in a bloody way, and he can't even keep a whole body.

“Reduced…”

He looked at Pei Xingyan and slowly knelt down.

...

...

The battle in the east of the city quickly ended. It took less than half an hour from Xu Shengqi leading the light cavalry into the Yanyun Army's camp to the surrender of more than 400 remaining soldiers, but the battle in the south of the city was beyond everyone's expectations.

Wei Tianchui is a general under the command of Duke Zhang Gongjin of Tan. This man is famous for his superb martial arts skills. Few people are his opponents in the military competitions. This man has made many contributions in several battles, and he has dozens of deaths in his hands. After killing too many people, he will lose his awe of life, but it does not mean that he will not cherish his own life.

From the beginning of the rushing forward, Wei Tianchui knew that today would never be successful.

Unlike Pei Xingyan's tactics, Niu Jinda did not let the archers line up from the beginning, but let the archers retreat. Thousands of infantry holding shields formed a concave formation and put the Tang cavalry into the camp. Before the Tang cavalry who rushed into the camp had time to be happy, they found themselves in a siege.

The Yanyun Army infantrymen, holding a tall and huge shield, stood next to the people, and dense shields formed a series of city walls. The Tang cavalry who rushed into the camp suddenly woke up and then stopped the war horses and planned to withdraw. The shield formations around began to close, and the thick formation slowly pressed up.

The soldiers hiding behind the giant shields were completely blocked. Even if the long spear in the hands of the Tang cavalry was sharp, they could not find the target! In front of them was a neat and continuous shield formation, and the long spears were stabbed randomly and could not hurt the Yanyun soldiers!

Just after the shield formation was encircled, the Tang army soldiers hiding behind the giant shield began to show their power. Behind each row of giant shield hands was a row of soldiers holding guns. When the shield formation surrounded the Tang army approached within twenty steps of the Tang cavalry, with Niu Jinda's order, countless guns flew out from behind the giant shield and smashed into the Tang cavalry's formation like heavy rain.

For a moment, the wailing sounded across the sky, and the Tang soldiers had nowhere to hide. The back was blocked by their comrades and could not turn around. If they rushed forward, they would be dead.

"Bump them away!"

Wei Tianchui, who was in the last team, shouted: "Run forward, only by knocking the shield array opens can you survive. Don't stop as a target, and rush forward!"

While he shouted, he secretly turned his horse and rushed back. While Yan Yun's army had not yet counterattacked, he had time to rush outside Mingde Gate. As long as the city gate was opened and he returned to the city, he would not make things difficult for him with Duke Tan's respect for him. He didn't know that Xu Shengran, who was in the east of the city, chose a completely opposite path, and if he knew, he would not change his choice.

This is simply a trap!

Wei Tian cursed in his heart that Yan Yun's army had already been prepared. Not to mention the surprise attack, even if Duke Tan mobilized tens of thousands of troops to break through, he might not be able to break the Yan Yun's army's battalion.

So he chose to escape without hesitation.

The dense spears were thrown over endlessly, and the gathering of Tang cavalry were torn off the horse's back layer by layer. Just like a huge and dense hail smashed into the pond, a burst of blood was stirred up on the water. The leather armor on the light cavalry could not stop the heavy and sharp spears, and stopping was the most fatal mistake they made.

It is impossible to imagine that such tragic, densely popped guns covered the past, and the cavalry and war horses could not dodge at all. As the shield formation gradually closed, it seemed that their last life would be cut off.

...

...

Wei Tianchui and more than a dozen personal soldiers turned around and escaped. As he escaped at the last battle, the Tang cavalry team collapsed immediately. The soldiers turned their horses and ran back after Wei Tianchui. The crowds accumulated behind dispersed, and the cavalry in front also had a way out. The defeat spread out at an unstoppable speed from the beginning.

The Tang army fled immediately as soon as they rushed, and even Niu Jinda did not expect it. He originally thought that since he came to charge, the Tang army would have to die. There were not many cavalrymen coming, and obviously they were planning to rush out to seek help. Since that was the case, there was no reason to be defeated at the beginning.

But this happened like this, it was a joke, a very cold joke.

Wei Tianchui ran all the way, relying on his war horse to lead the way and rushed out of Mingde Gate. He beat the horse like crazy, telling himself that he could survive as long as he rushed to the city gate.

In front of the Mingde Gate Tower, holding the battlements in his hand, he looked at the Duke of Tan, Zhang Gongjin, who looked outside with a blue face. His hands were holding the bricks, because the blue veins on the back of his hands were bulging.

"Shoot the arrow!"

He squeezed out two words from the corner of his mouth and then turned away.

The rain of arrows covered the city wall, mixed with heavy crossbows as thick as a calf. The escaped Tang cavalry did not die at the hands of Yan Yunjun, but at the hands of his comrades. Wei Tianchui was extremely lucky and was directly smashed by a heavy crossbow to pieces. The corpse on the ground looked as disgusting as half of his maggots. What is sad is that his war horse was intact and there was no wound on his body.

The war horse stood alone next to Wei Tianchui's corpse, constantly arching the master's body with its mouth to try to wake him up. Its mouth made a soft call, but how could the already cold corpse respond to it?

Not far behind the war horse, white feathers covered a layer, and hundreds of elite cavalrymen of the Tang Dynasty were shot to death here, and none of them touched the city gates that were within reach alive.

Those who want to die are dead, and those who want to survive are dead.

Zhang Gongjin didn't take a look outside, his lips twitched, and his face turned cold.

At the gate of Xi Neiyuan, Liu Hongji drank all the wine in the pot and shed a line of clear tears.
