Xie Shigong's face changed.

The thing that I worry most about finally happened.

"General, let's take people to block the hole." The deputy general said.

Xie Shigong nodded.

The deputy general brought a team of troops to block the collapse of the city wall.

"Go and see when the troops in Fubiao Camp will arrive." Xie Shigong knew that the city wall collapsed, and the bandits outside the city would definitely not miss this opportunity.

When he was close to each other, there were not enough troops. He was worried that the Tianmen Pass would start to fall from this opening.

The personal soldiers on the side turned around and ran under the city wall.

At this moment, the cannon sound outside the city had almost stopped.

However, not only did Duke Jie not relaxed, but became even more nervous, because he knew that the bandits would not miss such an opportunity to break the city.

"Report, general, the bandits attacked." A soldier who was defending the city quickly came to Xie Shigong to report.

Hearing this, Xie Shigong strode towards the battlements on the city wall.

Several personal soldiers and guards were next to him and walked over with him.

When he arrived at the chassis, Xie Shigong condescendingly walked out of the city.

About a few thousand bandit soldiers were rushing towards the city wall north of Tianmen Pass.

Seeing this scene, Xie Shigong clenched his fists tightly, hoping that his deputy could block the gap in the city wall that was bombarded by the bandits with cannons and defeat the invading bandits.

"Come on, shoot arrows, shoot arrows under the city."

On the north wall, the deputy general stood at a high place, directing the archers to shoot at the rushing bandits with their bows and arrows.

On both sides of the city walls, the defenders archers shot arrows from the bandits who wanted to rush into Tianmen Pass through the gap.

The soldiers who siege the tiger flag were not prepared at all. In addition to the sword and shield soldiers who rushed in the front, many soldiers also held door panels to block the front to resist the attacks of the defenders on the city.

arrows.

The sword and shield soldiers who charged in front were wearing half-body breastplate to protect their vital points. Unless the arrows hit the vital points such as the face and throat, ordinary arrows would not pose much threat to them.

Among the sword and shield soldiers, the one who rushed in front was a small war soldier squad leader.

He and two sword and shield soldiers rushed to the gap in the city wall, stepped on the ladder and climbed up the city wall that was half short. He watched the official soldiers blocking the front of him slashed over with a knife, and at the same time, he used his other arm to slap.

The round shield went to block the weapons that were chopping towards him.

Puff!

The blade slid away and blocked the neck of a soldier in front of him, and blood sprayed him all over.

kill!

He shouted angrily, turned over and jumped onto the city wall, and chopped him up whenever he saw someone.

Many Tianmen Pass defenders who were guarding the gap were attracted by him. They stabbed him with several spears, but they had the opportunity to jump up the city wall for their companions behind them.

More and more swords and shields were climbing up a gap that was bombarded by cannons on the ladder.

The pressure on the defenders of Tianmen Pass is getting stronger and stronger in defending here.

"Come on, rush on, and drive all the bandits down." The deputy general looked at the gap in the city wall and killed the two men and horses, eagerly and loudly ordered the guards guarding around Tianmen Pass.

There were also hundreds of soldiers guarding the gate of Tianmen Pass who rushed towards the gap.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The musketeer who followed the sword and shield soldiers finally rushed up. As soon as he approached, he fired the musketeer in his hand at the archers on the city wall, and then quickly installed a bayonet and began to assist the sword and shield soldiers in purging the guards of Tianmen Pass around him.

With the invasion of the musketeers, the original advantage of the guards and soldiers at Tianmen Pass was no longer there, and the number of people gradually began to fall into a disadvantage.

"General, I protect you and leave, and I can't stop it here." A personal soldier protected the deputy general, showing nervousness.

There were fewer and fewer guards at the Tianmen Pass at the gap. If someone from behind hadn't been to the formation and killed a few deserters who wanted to escape, they would have fled on a large scale.

Even so, more and more soldiers of the tiger-shaped flag at the gap climbed to the city wall, and even if there were people behind the Tianmen Pass guards, they would gradually be unable to suppress them.

"Let's go." The deputy general decisively gave up the gap and took his personal soldiers to retreat to the city gate.

Without the people who were holding the formation, the guards at Tianmen Pass at the gate of the city wall were soon defeated and fled. Some of them even left their weapons and knelt on the ground and chose to surrender.

The soldiers who seized the gap in the city wall did not care about the official army that voluntarily surrendered, but continued to chase and kill the fleeing deserters.

"General, don't walk through the city wall, Tianmen Pass can't be defended." A personal soldier on the side stopped the deputy general who wanted to return to the city.

Hearing this, the deputy general hesitated for a moment. Seeing the bandits behind him chasing him, he had to give up his plan to go to the top of the city to find Xie Shigong and chose to take the remaining soldiers to escape from Tianmen Pass.

On that day, the city wall of the Menguan can no longer become an obstacle for the soldiers with the Tiger Flag. The city wall on the north side of Tianmen Pass quickly fell into the hands of the soldiers with the Tiger Flag.

The official guards on the northern city wall fled, the arrested were arrested, and the blocked city gate was opened again.

The cavalry of the Tiger Flag brigade who had been waiting outside entered Tianmen Pass.

The cavalry and warriors cooperated with each other, and soon the entire Tianmen Pass was taken down, and the city wall was replaced with a large flag with the tiger flag.

"General, the last general is incompetent and cannot block the gap in the city wall."

The deputy general who fled from Tianmen Pass met Xie Shigong who also escaped from Tianmen Pass on the way to Yangqu.

"It's not your fault, it would be the same if I were the general." Xie Shigong said with a wry smile.

After the city wall was bombarded by cannons, he had already thought of this result.

"General, what should we do next?" asked the deputy general.

Governor Pan asked them to stay in Tianmen Pass for at least half a month, and for this reason, they sent Fubiao camp beside the governor to support him. However, Tianmen Pass was held in their hands for only two days before being taken down by the thief army.

Without Tianmen Pass, the next one is Yangqu, and there is no dangerous pass like Tianmen Pass in the middle to guard.

Several important yamen in Shanxi are all in Yangqu. Not only are there governors, but the officials in the yamen in Chengxuan's Political Consultative Office are also in Yangqu.

"First go back to Yangqu, then to guard Yangqu, or retreat to Liaozhou or other places, and all the troops will be pacified." Xie Shigong said to him.

The deputy general nodded.

Both of them knew in their hearts that there was no other choice except to retreat to Yangqu.

The two soldiers and horses who escaped from Tianmen Pass joined together, and there were only three or four hundred people in total. Of course, there must be more than just these soldiers and horses who escaped, but the only ones that the two people can control now are only such soldiers and horses.

No one knew whether the bandits occupying Tianmen Pass would catch up. The two of them did not dare to waste time on the road. In order to escape faster, all the soldiers and armor on the body of the armor were left on the road.

"General, a large number of soldiers were found in front of him."

On the way to escape, a brigade of soldiers under the banner of Fubiao Camp in Shanxi discovered Shigong and the remaining soldiers around him.
