—————————————————————

Qian Xiaoxing's guard company, when Zheng Tong was hunted, died and seriously injured several people. Now there are thirty-two people. The soldiers have put on gas masks on their heads and are ready to charge.

Qian Xiaoxing saw that the city wall was pitch black and there was no sign of people, so he ordered: "Prepare a ladder and get on!"

The soldiers behind carried six cloud ladders and forked them on the city wall. Under Hu Suoyuan's leadership, the soldiers of the guard company began to climb up the ladders.

The cloud ladder appears and disappears in the black smoke, and the people on the cloud ladder cannot see clearly in the black smoke. They just bury their heads upwards, and soon they come to the city wall.

Hu Suoyuan was the first to turn over and enter the city wall. Through the glass of the gas mask, he could not help but laugh.

Others also climbed up one after another, and Hu Suoyuan immediately ordered: "Action as planned!"

The soldiers of the guard company took off the refining bombs from their bodies, ignited them, and threw a few at the stairs, blocking the stairs with a fire wall.

After occupying the city wall, Hu Suoyuan shouted: "Chief of Staff, the city wall has been occupied by us as your order."

"Okay, destroy the smoke immediately and prepare to land on the city wall!" Qian Xiaoxing gave orders to the remaining soldiers.

The soldiers immediately used their spears to lift the fire into the moat, and the black smoke suddenly dissipated, and the others set up some ladders to start climbing.

Sima Chuchu saw that the fire had already lit up at the stairs, and knew that the people of Si Jun were coming up. Seeing that they occupied the city wall, but they had no way to snatch it back, Sima Chuchu was very helpless. Unexpectedly, the city wall was broken in an instant. It seemed that in Qian Xiaoxing's hands, it was indeed not difficult to break the city.

Seeing the soldiers of the guards wearing gas masks, Sima Chuchu also vaguely realized that they could come and go freely in the black smoke with this. Although the city wall was occupied by them, there was not a lack of opportunity. If Si Jun got off the city wall, there would be many advantages.

Sima Chuchu ordered the soldiers to guard the city gate and the stairs to prevent the Si army from capturing.

After the Si army had about 300 soldiers, Qian Xiaoxing also climbed up the ladder. Now that he had occupied the city wall, he could attack the enemy from a high point.

Qian Xiaoxing shouted to Sima Chuchu: "It's neither male nor female, now we have attacked, haven't you surrendered yet?"

"Qian Xiaoxing, don't be too proud too early. We will not surrender even if we fight to the death." Sima Chuchu shouted.

"Why are you doing this? Sima Chuchu, you are also a smart person. You should understand that if you continue to resist, you will only die more people." Qian Xiaoxing then shouted to the enemy under the city: "Brothers, I, Qian Xiaoxing, don't want to kill you, but Sima Chuchu has always asked you to fight against me, and for the sake of her own interests, you all want to work hard. Think about it."

Sima Chuchu shouted angrily: "Qian Xiaoxing, you are not allowed to destroy the morale of our army."

"The stable morale of the army can't be destroyed no matter how hard others destroy it," Qian Xiaoxing continued to shout to the enemy under the city: "I, Qian Xiaoxing, are not that I have no ability to kill you. Now I advise you to give you a chance. I will treat your brothers who were captured by me before. As long as you defect to our country, you will have five taels of military pay per month. Please consider it."

The Qingyu City defenders below did start to whisper. Although Sima Chuchu was the military advisor of the army, she had not had a deep relationship with the soldiers for a few days, so the soldiers followed her wholeheartedly and had not yet reached that point.

Sima Chuchu naturally knew his shortcomings and shouted: "Don't believe Qian Xiaoxing. There is still a 50,000 army by the Lanjiang River. We still have a backing. Everyone must defend Qingyu City."

Seeing that the soldiers were still hesitating, it seemed that they would not surrender if they did not show their strength, so Qian Xiaoxing ordered Hu Suoyuan to say, "Do you throw me a few poisonous gas bombs."

"Yes!" The poisonous gas bomb exploded in the crowd, and a vast white dust immediately dissipated. Qian Xiaoxing shouted: "If I drop a refining bomb, you will burn a large area to death. Don't you surrender?"

Qian Xiaoxing was persuading surrender, and suddenly Hu Suoyuan came to Qian Xiaoxing to report: "Chief of Staff, a large number of enemies were found outside Qingyu City."

"What?" Qian Xiaoxing immediately turned around and came to the city wall, took out his telescope and checked it. He saw that there were indeed many soldiers coming from afar. Seeing that his military uniform was consistent with the soldiers in Qingyu City, was it that the soldiers who were originally stationed by the Lan River came to rescue Sima Chuchu?

Seeing the soldiers running here in a dense manner, Qian Xiaoxing immediately felt something was wrong. There were 50,000 troops stationed by Lanjiang River. If all of them came over, they could surround Qingyu City. It seemed that he had been attacked by Sima Chuchu. If he still stayed here and was united by their internal and external forces, his tens of thousands of infantry might be wiped out.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately, order the entire army to retreat!" Qian Xiaoxing said hurriedly.

Hearing Qian Xiaoxing's orders, the soldiers did not hesitate and climbed down the ladder one after another. Some of them could swim and simply jumped into the moat.

Qian Xiaoxing returned to the outside of the city and saw that Qingyu City was about to be given up, he was also very heartbroken. Sima Chuchu seemed to be not simple, and he happened to get reinforcements at this time.

Lu Shengzhong also learned that there were enemies coming outside the city. After discussing with Qian Xiaoxing, he immediately gathered the soldiers surrounded by four city gates. In order not to be surrounded by the enemy, everyone immediately retreated for three miles before stopping.

When Sima Chuchu saw Qian Xiaoxing leading troops to retreat from the city wall, he was very confused. Qian Xiaoxing was really unreasonable in doing things. Later, he realized that there was his own reinforcements outside. However, Qingyu City was surrounded and he had never sent anyone to ask for help. Why did they come here?

With doubts, Sima Chuchu climbed up to the city wall and watched the soldiers running towards Qingyu City quickly, but felt that something was wrong.

Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong also stood on the slope and observed with a telescope. Lu Shengzhong looked at it and said, "Seventh brother, things seem to be wrong. Those soldiers heading to Qingyu City do not seem to be their reinforcements."

"Not reinforcements? What is that?" Qian Xiaoxing asked in confusion.

"Seventh brother, you're looking at it." Lu Shengzhong signaled Qian Xiaoxing to raise his telescope and continued to explain: "These soldiers ran and scattered, unorganized, some of them even threw away their armor, and their flags were tilted. They should be a group of defeated troops."

According to Lu Shengzhong's explanation, Qian Xiaoxing did see this scene from the telescope and said thoughtfully: "The defeated army, has the confrontation on the Lan River been broken by Hu soldiers?"

"I think it's very likely." Lu Shengzhong then continued to pick up the telescope and observed it, and suddenly shouted: "Seventh brother, look, behind the defeated troops, Hu soldiers are chasing them."

Qian Xiaoxing also saw Hu soldiers riding a horse and waving their long swords to cut and kill the slow-flying soldiers. These soldiers had no resistance at all and just wanted to escape into Qingyu City as soon as possible.

Qian Xiaoxing looked at the soldiers who were chopped to the ground by Hu soldiers and couldn't help but say, "Oh my god, it's too bloody and too violent."

Qingyu City had opened the city gate and accepted the defeated troops. However, there were too many people. Everyone gathered at the city gate and waited for entry. However, the Hu cavalry behind had already come here, and the defeated troops suffered a lot of casualties.

When Lu Shengzhong saw this scene, he couldn't help but ask: "Seventh brother, should we go and save them?"

"Save? If we drive Hu soldiers away, then these people will enter Qingyu City. It will be almost impossible for us to take Qingyu City." Qian Xiaoxing said worriedly.

Lu Shengzhong reminded: "Seventh brother, don't you want to take all these people and let them surrender to Si Guo. Now that one of them has been killed by Hu Bing, we will have one less soldier."

Qian Xiaoxing nodded and replied, "Yes, our enemy is Hu Bing. We must stop it in favor of Hu Bing. Well, we will send troops to rescue him."

"Okay," Lu Shengzhong obviously didn't want Hu Bing to kill so comfortably, and said, "I think Hu Bing should have been chasing him for a long time, and he has used almost all his strength. It's time for us to go out."

Then, Lu Shengzhong wanted to arrange the 2,000 Dark Knights and the 4,000 Long-sing Cavalry Regiment to rescue him, but was stopped by Qian Xiaoxing. Qian Xiaoxing said, "Dark Knights, I think it's better to keep it confidential first, otherwise the Wu King of Hu Bing's army will be prepared by then, so the Long-sing Cavalry Regiment and the Ye Sakura Regiment will be dispatched."

Lu Shengzhong accepted Qian Xiaoxing's suggestion and asked Yang Qing and Shi Yeying to lead their troops to rescue him and ordered him to defeat Hu Bing.

Hu soldiers were chasing the defeated troops who were running away everywhere. Unexpectedly, a row of cavalry rushed over quickly, caught off guard, and immediately turned around and started running away.

The general who led the Hu soldiers to hunt down was Peng Guangyi. When he saw Yang Qing rushing over, he shouted: "Here you are the general's name!"

"Yang Qing, the commander of the Siguo Zongheng Cavalry Corps! Who are you!"

"I am Peng Guangyi, the general general of the border army of Hu. Haven't you started a war with the Zheng brothers? Why are we fighting again?" Peng Guangyi asked in confusion.

Yang Qing smiled and said, "We will hit anyone we want to hit, so you can point your fingers and see the gun!"

Seeing that the opponent's cavalry was coming, Peng Guangyi had been fighting for a long time, so he fought with Yang Qing for several rounds. He flew and pulled the team back.

After a while, the Hu cavalry was driven back. When they ran away, they were chased by female soldiers of the Ye Sakura regiment and shot many cavalry down.

Many of the defeated soldiers knelt down and thanked the Si Jun Zongheng Cavalry Regiment for their life-saving grace. Yang Qing clasped his fists and said, "After the order of our Chief of Staff Qian Xiaoxing, we come to rescue you. Come and enter the city quickly!" He said that, leading his subordinates back to the camp.

These defeated troops finally entered Qingyu City, and the city gate was closed again and the suspension bridge was pulled up.

The soldiers entering the city were very glad that their lives were finally saved. Sima Chuchu was looking for Zheng Tong in the crowd, and after a while, he finally found him.

Zheng Tong looked tired, wearing broken armor, and didn't know where the helmet fell. He was also slightly injured on his body. He was sitting there bandaging the wound. When he saw Sima Chuchu, he immediately stood up and said, "Chuchu, Lanjiang has been lost, our army has been defeated."

Sima Chuchu couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"

"Oh..." Zheng Tong sighed and replied, "I don't know how the soldiers learned about my brother Zheng Chang's arrest by the Si army. The morale of the army was suddenly unstable. Under the temptation of the Hu army, many soldiers surrendered. When the Hu army knew the news, they forced the Lanjiang River to cross at night. We had few people and their morale was low. They were defeated after a few fights."
