Yang Tian ignored Da Xihong's kindness: "After you enter the city, you hand over the prisoners to the soldiers and civilians in the city, immediately come out from the east gate and attack the Turks. Whether you can continue to win this battle depends on whether you can attack in time."
Da Xi Hongcai replied loudly: "I am responsible for my duties."
"Honey Shi, you lead 500 people as the vanguard and set out first. The rest of the people followed me and attacked the East Gate together!"
"The last general is the order."
Shi Wansui was overjoyed. He waved his silver spear and pointed forward: "Brothers, come with me." He led the five hundred people from the headquarters to set out first.
The East Gate was also led by a Turkic insurgent. At first, he vaguely heard the shouts of killing from the South Gate. He thought that it was his companions from the South Gate who were siegeing the city, so he couldn't help but step up his command of his subordinates to attack the city. It was not until a dozen remaining soldiers of the South Gate fled to find out that Zhou reinforcements were coming from the South Gate.
The first reaction of the Inspector General was impossible. He looked at the dozen deserters but it was true. He was immediately anxious and ordered his subordinates to blew the retreating horns.
"Woo, woo, woo."
Hearing the sound of the ox horns, the Turkic people who were sieging the city retreated. Several team leaders Qi Jin hurriedly asked the Turkic Inspector General: "Sir, why did you retreat?"
The inspector said helplessly: "The Zhou reinforcements are here."
Everyone looked at each other in an instant. No one expected that Pule County would come to reinforcements. Pule County was so difficult to cultivate, and their morale had been wiped out. Several people in Shi Jin suddenly wanted to retreat: "Sir, retreat."
The inmate was hesitant. The 20,000 troops were unable to conquer a border town in Dazhou for a long time, and the casualties were so serious that they were incompetent. If the Zhou army retreated as soon as they arrived, you can imagine how angry Shaboluo Xiaohan would be when he learned about it. Chu Luoqi was Xiaohan's younger brother, and he might be exempted from punishment. On the contrary, the inmates who assisted Lord Ye Hu were very likely to be punished.
Another man saw that the inspector was hesitating and asked quickly, "Sir, how many reinforcements have the Zhou people come?"
Everyone suddenly realized that when they heard Zhou Jun coming to support, they subconsciously thought that many people had forgotten to ask, and the inmate was the same, and quickly brought the soldiers who had escaped from Nancheng to ask.
The Turks often grazed horses and cattle, and they all had a way to judge the number of people. Although they were busy escaping, they could still tell that there were not many reinforcements from the Zhou people. One was about to say that there were only two or three thousand people, but the other quickly rushed to say: "Sir, the Zhou army has about four or five thousand people, all of which are cavalry."
He was afraid that if the number of people was said to be small, he would be treated as a deserter military law, so he slightly exaggerated the power of the Xuanlong Army.
Although the power of the Xuanlong Army was twice as exaggerated, these Turks were not afraid. If the Zhou people left the city wall, how could they be the opponent of the Turkic warriors? One person said: "Sir, do we want to reinforce Nancheng?"
"Yes, sir, let's reinforce the Nancheng. If the Zhou people's reinforcements are annihilated, Pule County can be taken down."
The inspector was moved by the saying that there were 3,000 people in the south city. He only had to leave one thousand people to guard here and take two thousand people to the south gate. It was certainly no problem to join the 5,000 Turkic army to deal with the four or five thousand Zhou people. He never dreamed that the 3,000 Turkic people in the south city were wiped out by the Zhou army in a short time.
He pointed to a Shi Jin: "You stayed at the camp and sent someone to report to Lord Ye Hu, and the rest followed me to Nancheng."
"Yes, sir."
Since the Inspector General said so, everyone did not feel it was impossible. When the two thousand Turks heard that they did not have to attack the city but attacked the Zhou reinforcements, they also raised a little morale and rushed towards the south city with a scream.
As soon as Shi Wansui turned to the East City, he met the Turks head-on. Both sides were stunned. The Turks originally thought that the Zhou army was fighting with their own people in the South City, but they were not shocked when they saw the Zhou army coming. However, Shi Wansui was prepared and took the lead in reacting: "Kill!"
The five hundred Zhou army followed Shi Wansui like a tiger or a wolf and rushed into the Turkic formation, and in an instant it disrupted the Turkic vanguard formation. Shi Wansui took the lead in opening the way, and he picked or stabbed the spear in his hand. Several Turkic people who were shot fell straight down like firewood, and in a blink of an eye, they were stepped into flesh mud by the Zhou army cavalry that rushed up.
"Kill!" After a brief panic, the Turks also aroused their ferociousness and used a scimitar to slash at the Zhou army with a scimitar. Although the Turks were ethnic groups on horseback, most of them were herdsmen. If they were to deal with the Zhou army's palace and county soldiers, the Turks had a huge advantage. Faced with full-time soldiers like the Xuanlong Army, the situation was one-sided. Where the two armies were connected, the Turks fell off their horses one after another. Their scimitars could not pose a threat to the Zhou army's spear and horse spear.
The Turkic Inspector was shocked from behind. They had always looked down on the Zhou army. Even after being taught in Pule County, they still believed that the Zhou people were just cowards hiding in the city walls. Unexpectedly, the two armies met and were killed by the Zhou people. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hold on, hold on."
Shi Wansui had already reached the central army of the Turkic people. When he saw a Turkic nobleman in the rear shouting, knowing that it must be the leader of the Turkic people. He rushed out of the Turkic people from the flanks and rushed towards the direction of the Turkic chief.
Seeing that only one Zhou army came here, a personal soldier beside the Turkic Inspector sneered, drew out a precious long arrow, and shot Shi Wansui.
"Swish!" The long arrow made a shrill sound in the air. A contemptuous smile appeared on Shi Wansui's face. He snatched the silver spear in his hand and knocked off the long arrow flying towards him, instantly drawing a lot closer.
Seeing the brave Zhou army, the inspector was shocked and shouted: "Shoot him to death, shoot him to death!"
Several personal soldiers around the Turkic Inspector immediately drew a long arrow and shot Shi Wansui. Shi Wansui's silver spear trembled and danced into a gun shadow in front of them. All the long arrows shot by the Turkic people were knocked away. The distance between the two sides had been narrowed to more than dozens of steps. Several personal soldiers of the Inspector looked at each other and slapped at Shi Wansui to welcome him. Shi Wansui was not afraid. The long spear turned into a strange fox line, and it struck the necks of several Turkic soldiers in succession. These Turkic people shook their horses and shot a wisp of blood from their necks. The thunderbolt and the horses fell to their horses several times and died.
The Turkic Inspector was shocked and took advantage of the time when Shi Wansui stayed and drove away. Dozens of Turkic people behind him found that their inspector were in danger and quickly shouted to meet him. Seeing that the inspector was about to meet with his subordinates, Shi Wansui drew out his long bow, bent down to put an arrow, and made it all in one go. The long arrow flashed and had already reached the back of the Turkic Inspector.
At this time, there were several people around the Turkic Inspector. As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, several Turkic people saw Shi Wansui shooting arrows and shouted: "Sir, be careful."
"Why are you careful?" The Turkic Inspector was confused, and suddenly felt a pain on his back, as if he was hit hard by a huge force. He let out a scream and fell off the horse's back. He fell to the ground with a sound, motionless, and an iron arrow on his back left only a little feather trembling slightly.
