The battles nowadays have all been concentrated on the first acropolis.

The only remaining 7,000 beggars used very simple siege equipment to rush to climb the city wall.

There are only three thousand soldiers in this acropolis.

Although there are only three thousand people, because the structure of the Acropolis is more refined, various materials can be stored more, and the soldiers have a lot of room for maneuver, so the most severe damage was given to these more than 7,000 people.

But the number of enemies was so large that they attacked them several times.

If the lieutenant who was in front of the battle had not been properly commanded, he would probably have fallen into the most tragic melee.

Even so, casualties on both sides are increasing in large numbers.

The acropolis where Lu Zhengxiang is located is five miles away, but after passing through a thousand miles of eyes, he could still see the tragic tragedy clearly.

The captain in charge of the command was the one who had just chatted with him on the beacon tower, named Gu Qinglong.

Although Lu Zhengxiang called Gu Qinglong and had to retreat to his place when things were not done, Gu Qinglong might not be able to come back now, looking at the tragic look.

Because in addition to these seven thousand people, there were six or seven thousand elite soldiers coming slowly.

These people are definitely not enough to capture the Acropolis where Lu Zhengxiang is located.

After all, there are twenty or thirty enemy platforms, So Fort, etc. in front of here.

In addition, this acropolis is the largest recently, with a total of 4,000 people. With the two thousand people brought by Lu Zhengxiang, it is not as large as 20,000 people, and it is impossible to obtain it at all.

But Lu Zhengxiang didn't dare to rescue Gu Qinglong at all.

Because once he left the Acropolis, even if all his four thousand people attacked, they would be killed by Qiyan's elite cavalry.

Facing the powerful cavalry, the Dakang's border guards could only defend, so that they could have hope of killing them back.

Lu Zhengxiang was watching, his heart was bleeding.

Every one of the dead and injured inside... no, all the soldiers who were killed and injured today were brought out by him personally.

Seeing that at least seven or eight people were going to be killed or injured, Lu Zhengxiang felt that he and the Qiyan people had reached the point of never stopping.

However, Lu Zhengxiang not only could not save Gu Qinglong, but instead, when the enemy came to attack the acropolis, he would lead a thousand people to continue to retreat.

Retreat until the last largest acropolis is where he can no longer take a step back.

Because behind it is Datong City!

No one has any way out.

But no matter how the situation endangers, Gu Qinglong is worthy of being the most trusted general of Lu Zhengxiang. He firmly controlled the situation and used various methods to kill all the enemies.

The surroundings of the Acropolis were covered with blood.

Both sides' voices were already hoarse.

The enemy army that had been attacking and killing for two hours could not hold on anymore. They were only more than a thousand people left. For some reason, they ran away with a loud bang.

There were only one or two, and almost a dozen breaths, all of these people staggered and ran back to the elite troops who had arrived more than a hundred feet away from the Acropolis.

It seemed that two groups of cavalry rushed out of the other side and surrounded the group of begging men, but then they stopped and let the begging men go backwards.

Here comes!

Lu Zhengxiang clenched his fists, his teeth almost bleeding.

At first glance, these six or seven thousand cavalrymen were the elite among the elites, and they didn't have to go all in battle. As long as three thousand people were dispatched, the first Acropolis, which had already suffered heavy casualties, would be completely destroyed.

What awaits Gu Qinglong and the others is cruel fate.

Lu Zhengxiang hated his weakness and hated that the troops he led were not as good as the elite soldiers.

But Gu Qinglong there did not have such melancholy feelings.

He came to a high ground leaning towards the acropolis here, and waved to Lu Zhengxiang with a strong smile.

Gu Qinglong knew that Lu Zhengxiang could see him and see his movements clearly.

This is also a farewell!

but!

At this moment, the elite cavalry who had been advancing slowly suddenly stopped.

Then their front army was changed to the rear army, and the rear army was changed to the front army, escorting the group of noble generals walking in front and slowly moving backwards.

“!?”

Lu Zhengxiang, Gu Qinglong, and all the Dakang soldiers around him felt inexplicable.

Their first reaction was that this must be a trap!

But after waiting for those two quarters of an hour, when these elite beggars disappeared, the beacon tower in the distance also ignited the signal of "the enemy retreated from the wall of the Great Wall", everyone suddenly realized.

It turned out that it was not a trap, but they really retreated!

"ah……"

"We won!!"

"Repel them!!"

A hoarse voice with excitement suddenly rang throughout the battlefield.

In the First Acropolis, Gu Qinglong, who was so fierce just now, fainted directly.

In another acropolis, Lu Zhengxiang, who had just ordered the doctors and soldiers to rescue them, also sat on the ground.

Only then did he feel that the clothes in his armor were all soaked in sweat!

These two hours are so long and so painful!!

...

At this moment, Shi Wanliang, the general of the northern defense line, who was hundreds of miles away, was already actively deploying troops.

He has a total of 100,000 troops in his hand, and there are 25,000 imperial guards next to Zhending Mansion, which will be supported by Zhu Xingjun, so he will not take many people in the first step.

It's probably 10,000 cavalry.

The remaining forty thousand infantry will follow behind.

If the situation is unfavorable, his ten thousand people will be ready to fight guerrilla warfare, wander around the edge of the battlefield, and if you have the chance, you will bite the beggar.

If the enemy has not reached that point and the enemy has not yet broken through the fortress defense line, then his ten thousand people will enter Datong City first.

After all, Zhu Xingjun's 25,000 imperial guards will definitely not enter the city.

They are the most authentic field forces. As long as they set up a formation in the wild, even 50,000 beggars will not be able to break their defense.

Moreover, the 10,000 cavalry in Zhu Xingjun's hands are much more elite than his border troops.

No army of begging Yan dares to ignore their involvement.

Taiyuan was originally an important town in the north, and the military facilities here were very complete.

Ten thousand cavalry gathered within three hours.

In order to ensure speed, they only brought dry food for two days and brought an additional 5,000 horses to spare for emergency use.

Not to run away.

But things have come to an irreversible step. Five thousand elites selected will ride these five thousand horses that have not consumed much energy and launch crazy harassing attacks on the enemy in order to slow down their siege.

If Datong is lost, no one can bear this responsibility.

"General!"

When Shi Wanliang rode his horse to test his troops, a horse rushed over there quickly: "The order of the Governor is here!"

Shi Wanliang quickly pulled over the letter that had not been copied and read it carefully.

"I will lead reinforcements to Taiyuan within three days. Your troops can move forward quickly, but you must pay attention to the movements of Zhangjiakou and Yumu. Remember not to devote all your efforts! Maintaining Datong is the most important thing, and you are not allowed to make a rash progress."

After reading the letter, Shi Wanliang ordered: "Lao Zhang, you lead the infantry to follow you. You can't relax your vigilance just because we are in front. The spy must be free. Be careful when camping at night! Do not attack when encountering enemies. Take your people safely to Taiyuan City and I will be your great contribution!"

"yes!"

The captain Zhang beside him replied, "Don't worry, General, I know what is the most important."

Xiong Wenqing reminded Shi Wanliang that Shi Wanliang would also remind his subordinates.

Everyone should know what the first element is, not show off.

After all, this time, the 100,000 begging for troops is a rare thing in the past twenty years. We should not be careless and everything should be based on stability.

Shi Wanliang and Xiong Wenqing have the same thoughts as long as I can protect Datong, no matter how many people you come, you will not dare to go deeper.

Otherwise, do you really think that the cavalry and imperial cavalry of our border army are vegetarian?

After saying that, he said to another tall lieutenant: "Old Wang, you must be prepared at any time. I am worried that they will have more than just such things. If they are attacking the world, you will have to fight for rescue with all your strength."

"I know."

Captain Wang responded seriously.

Captain Wang is more stable than Captain Zhang, and Shi Wanliang is quite at ease with him.
