Chapter 244 Helpless Zhang Liao
"Why are we fighting?" Just when the south gate and east gate fell into the attack of Lu Bu and the state army, Zhang Liao, who was responsible for attacking the north gate, fell into confusion.
"Wenyuan! Stop being dazed! Attack quickly!" Among the five thousand Bingzhou cavalry troops behind Zhang Liao, it was Lu Bu himself! At this time, Lu Bu faintly heard killing shouts coming from the direction of the east gate, and saw the former army leading the team again.
Zhang Liao was reluctant to take action and couldn't help shouting.
"Tsk..." Zhang Liao was very reluctant, but the military order was like, "Charge!" Zhang Liao waved his broadsword, and then he started galloping with the cavalry behind him.
Four thousand cavalrymen fought out from behind a hill not far from the north gate of Chang'an City. This caught the soldiers who had received orders to strengthen their defense somewhat unprepared. News of the attack on the east gate and south gate had just come through.
After the four thousand cavalry, Lu Bu was flanked by his most trusted two generals, Cao Xing and Cheng Lian, and then followed by Lu Bu's most elite thousand cavalry.
"Let go!" The defenders at the North Gate still didn't have time to arrange their defensive equipment, so they could only use arrow feathers to try to slow down the advancing speed of the siege troops.
But hundreds of small arrow feathers could not withstand the huge cavalry troops. Those arrow feathers were like a stone sinking into the sea, and they did not stir up a single wave.
Although Zhang Liao himself was extremely reluctant, the Bingzhou Army's offensive was still very efficient. Perhaps Lu Bu personally participated in the battle, and the four thousand Bingzhou cavalry who opened the way moved forward without any command.
"Wenyuan, I'll leave this to you!" Lu Bu is also a discerning person, and he can see Zhang Liao's disgust with this surprise attack on Chang'an City, but Zhang Liao is also an old man in the Bingzhou Army, and now he has been forced to a dead end by Lu Bu, right?
Maybe they just sit back and do nothing about the four thousand soldiers.
Lu Bu immediately rushed out of the array with Cao Xingcheng Lian and a thousand elites, and rushed directly towards the Weiyang Palace under the leadership of Lu Bu himself.
"Report! The north gate is also in danger! The north gate has been breached!" In the barracks in the west of the city, Dong Wu received another urgent report. Cold sweat dripped from the head of the senior general of the Dong family army. The entire Dong family army
They can all be said to be Dong Zhuo's bodyguards, and the Dong Family Army is now the main force responsible for protecting Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City. They are directly under Dong Zhuo's command. The highest officer is Dong Yang, the captain of Dong Zhuo's bodyguards.
Therefore, without receiving orders from Weiyang Palace, Dong Wu could only lead the Dong family army to defend Weiyang Palace first, and they had no way to intervene in other wars.
At the same time, the South City Gate has been breached by Wei Xu's army, and the cavalry troops with bronze ghost faces have been looting everywhere in the city. However, the south barracks closest to the South City Gate still has its gate closed, with no intention of sending troops.
Many people who wanted to take refuge in the Chengnan barracks could only face the closed gate and sighed. At this time, it was not because the Chengnan barracks refused to save them, but because the entire Chengnan barracks only had a few hundred troops.
, it is impossible to go out to fight against thousands of enemy troops of unknown origin.
.It turns out that the Chengnan Barracks was evacuated after the Battle of Hulao Pass and was handed over to Zhang Chen's troops who suffered heavy losses to recuperate, and the configuration of Zhang Chen's troops was very strange. While Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang's troops were recruiting and expanding, they were also helping the troops from Luoyang
The migrating people are in the Guanzhong area
Build a home. Zhang Heng's troops were completely wiped out in the Battle of Hulao Pass. Even the commander-in-chief Zhang Heng was killed on the battlefield. There was no possibility of rebuilding the entire Zhang Heng tribe. The four major battalions were led by their respective battalion commanders.
A group of new team members were recruited, and at Zhang Chen's request, they pulled the team to the end.
They went to the foot of Nanshan Mountain for training, where, with the help of the Shenji Sect, they would have their own venues to help train the soldiers of the four battalions. The entire seemingly scattered Zhang Chen Department was in charge of Lao Jiang, and Zhang Chen himself had just returned to Guanzhong at that time.
Soon he was sent to the west to fight against the alien rebels.
Therefore, under the influence of Zhang Chen, who possesses modern thinking, the camp in the south of the city became an empty camp with only a few hundred scattered troops stationed, and its real combat effectiveness was exercised outside.
But no one thought that Chang'an City, which was defended by tens of thousands of troops on the outside, would be raided. Zhang Chen himself also saw that the density of soldiers in the Guanzhong area had reached an unprecedented high after the entire war, so he pulled the troops into the wild.
Let the veterans quickly train the new recruits to prepare for the next battle in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.
Just when Hua Xiong's troops in the east of the city had left the city to block the enemy's entry into the city, and the south of the city was plunged into panic, in the camp in the north of the city, the hesitant Yang Ding had to fight.
Zhang Liao himself was in a dilemma. Before sending troops, Lu Bu issued an order to let his Bingzhou troops loot at will and commit evil everywhere in the city. As a young general, Zhang Liao naturally could not let most of the soldiers disobey Lu Bu's orders, so he had to take his troops with him.
The soldiers personally found their way to the camp in the north of the city, while other Bingzhou troops gradually came over and stormed the camp in the north of the city.
Among the four military camps in the city's southeast, northwest and northwest, the North Camp has the worst combat effectiveness, because they were originally formed from the miscellaneous princes' armies from Xiliang, and there were even horse thieves among them. At first, Dong Zhuo thought it was troublesome, so he sent
These armies were all handed over to his younger brother Dong Min to manage as the reserve force of the Xiliang Army. The army in the north of the city was
The general of the battalion, Yang Ding, was himself a motley general who chose to surrender like most of the small princes due to Dong Zhuo's overwhelming power in Xiliang. The consistent style of such a general is based on ensuring the safety of his own life.
When Yang Ding received the battle report that the three city walls were like snowflakes, he still chose to stand still.
But who would have known that many of his subordinates were soldiers from the Guanzhong area. Worried about the families inside and outside the city, many soldiers went out to fight on their own, hoping to resist the sudden surprise attack.
When Zhang Liao had the opportunity, Zhang Liao followed the direction they rushed in and found the military camp in the north of the city. Yang Ding had no choice but to lead the remaining defenders to attack to fight against the enemy.
...
There were beacon fires all over the city of Chang'an. Among the rebels, many soldiers who reported the news were already riding fast horses to urgently request support from the troops stationed near Chang'an City.
"Quickly mobilize the army! Li Meng! You quickly mobilize three thousand cavalry to support the city!" Xu Rong was shocked when he received the emergency, but this veteran general who had been on the battlefield had already experienced many ups and downs.
He quickly calmed down, and on the one hand, he asked his subordinates to mobilize troops to fight against the enemy in Chang'an, and on the other hand, he secretly sent people to the military camp of Lu Bu and others to see the origin of this army.
