Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 295 Solving the Siege of Nanyang ([-])
"What's the matter, where did the Tang army come from to attack the camp?" Wu Lingxun was awakened by the chaos, and before he could get on the armor, he rushed out of the tent to find out the situation and where the Tang army who attacked the camp came from. , I want to organize resistance and repel or even annihilate the Tang army who attacked the camp.

However, before Wu Lingxun fully understood the situation, he directly saw the scene where the thousands of elite warriors guarding his tent in the Chinese army were forcibly defeated by the five thousand Anton cavalry who killed Wu Sheng and others to the Chinese army.

The incoming reinforcements from the Tang army turned out to be so fierce!
Wu Lingxun was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, and his hair stood on end. This Chinese army with more than [-] combat elites was his core force, but now he was defeated so quickly. Without this core elite, relying on other mobs alone, He knew that the general situation was over, and there was no room for recovery.

"Order the whole army to retreat to the north!" Wu Lingxun gritted his teeth with a gloomy face. After giving the order, he fled northward under the protection of his own soldiers.Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, no matter what, he has to save his own life first.

After defeating the anti-army elite blocking the way, Wu Shengzheng scanned the surroundings, looking for the shadow of the anti-army commander.

"Where is the commander-in-chief of the rebels?" Although Wu Sheng didn't know Wu Lingxun, and Wu Lingxun was not wearing the commander's armor at the moment, seeing that Wu Lingxun had so many personal guards, he didn't care if Wu Lingxun was The anti-army commander yelled at Wu Lingxun who was running away.

"Let's go, let's go!" Wu Lingxun was shocked and fled even more hastily with his soldiers.

The more flustered Wu Lingxun was, the more Wu Sheng doubted his identity, and he chased after Wu Lingxun with An Dong cavalry behind him.

However, chaotic and fleeing anti-army soldiers blocked the way everywhere. Although Wu Sheng and other Anton cavalry were killing a bloody road like a butchered chicken and a dog, they kept chasing Wu Lingxun, but Wu Lingxun and the soldiers around him were also in danger. He was riding a war horse, and after all, Wu Lingxun escaped farther and farther.

Wu Sheng was helpless. The main task Li Fei gave him was to go back and forth to penetrate the entire camp of the rebel army. Killing the enemy commander was only incidental, and because Wu Lingxun was not wearing the commander's armor, he could not determine Wu Lingxun's identity. , Only then did he prepare to give up the pursuit of Wu Lingxun, and instead continue to intersperse and divide the anti-army camp to kill the active forces of the anti-army.

Because thousands of anti-army core elites were defeated, and the commander-in-chief Wu Lingxun also ran away, the remaining anti-army was a mob. The next battle became extremely simple, just a one-sided massacre. collapse.

In Nanyang City.

Previously, although Lu Jiong got the news, Li Fei would attack the rebel camp at night to relieve the siege of Nanyang.But because he was not sure about the specific combat power of the [-] Anton cavalry, and he didn't know that the Khitan and Xi cavalry had left, he only thought that the Khitan and Xi cavalry had gone to take captives around Nanyang again.You know, with the rebel army and the Khitan, the Xi cavalry has a full army of [-].

However, being uneasy is one thing, and Lu Jiong is still willing to cooperate with Li Fei to fight with all his strength, because the food in Nanyang City has really been exhausted, and the soldiers and civilians in the city will not be able to survive if they do not rescue the siege.

Hearing the sound of galloping cavalry and shouts of killing from the direction of the anti-army camp outside the city, soon one after another anti-army tents were burned, and the flames ignited soaring into the sky.

Lu Jiong was already very close to the city wall, and immediately ran up to the city wall to check.

With the help of binoculars, Lu Jiong clearly saw the situation in the anti-army camp, and the entire anti-army camp was in chaos.

"Hurry up, gather all the soldiers and follow me out of the city to wipe out the rebels!" Lu Jiong hurriedly gathered all the soldiers who could still fight in the city, a total of more than 1000 soldiers.

"Kill!" The gate of Nanyang City, which had been closed for half a year, was opened, and Lu Jiong took the lead and led the Nanyang defenders out of the city.

Seeing the flames soaring into the sky, and the anti-army camp in chaos under the massacre of Anton's iron cavalry, not only Lu Jiong was excited, but even the defenders who were so hungry that their hands and feet were shaking were extremely excited, as if a force was born out of thin air in their bodies.

When Lu Jiong and more than [-] defenders also entered the anti-army camp, the anti-army in the anti-army camp had already begun to collapse. Lu Jiong and the Nanyang defenders hardly encountered any resistance, almost just chasing and fleeing rebel soldiers.

Holding a precious sword, Lu Jiong went in for more than 200 meters without encountering any rebels who came to stop him.This made Lu Jiong stunned, the anti-army was defeated so quickly?It was fast enough for him to gather an army and fight out of the city, but he still couldn't even drink a mouthful of soup.Judging from this situation, even without him and the Nanyang defenders going out of the city to attack, the rebels would surely be defeated!
"Heroes are born young!" Lu Jiong sighed, looking at the heroic and mighty Anton cavalry everywhere in the anti-army camp, Lu Jiong sighed even more.The elite of Anton's iron cavalry was not inferior to the elite of the Longyou army that the King of Xiping led them to kill Tubo in the Qinghai area of ​​Longyou.

Now that the anti-army has collapsed across the board, all that remains is to hunt down and kill them.

The hunt lasted most of the night.

Of course, Anton's cavalry are still the main ones chasing and killing the rebels. After all, Anton's cavalry are cavalry, and the Nanyang defenders have been short of food for a long time. They are so hungry that they can fight out of the city. It was so rare that many defenders chased after him, but they fainted from starvation because they were too hungry and exhausted too much energy.

After all, the rebel army had more than 8 troops, and there was a lot of food and grass hoarded in the camp, enough to feed 10 people for half a month, all of which were captured by Li Fei.

While Li Fei ordered Anton's iron cavalry to continue chasing and killing the defeated rebels, he also sent someone to notify Lu Jiong to transport the grain and grass back to the city first to help the people in the city.

As cart after cart of grain was transported into the city, both the soldiers of the Nanyang garrison and the people in the city cried.After half a year of siege, many people in the city starved to death, and there were even reports of cannibalism. Now that the siege of Nanyang has finally been lifted, they no longer have to drink half a bowl of soup every day to support their lives.

Ninety-nine percent of the routs of the anti-army were infantry, and few routs without horses could escape the pursuit of Li Fei and Anton's iron cavalry.

Except for Wu Lingxun who fled to Yingchuan with less than 8000 defeated soldiers, only about 7 rebel soldiers escaped, and the remaining [-] rebel soldiers were either killed or captured.Among them, more than [-] people were killed, and nearly [-] were captured!

This is undoubtedly a great victory!
In the early morning, Li Fei entered Nanyang City with the regrouped Anton cavalry.

Due to the seizure of a large amount of food and grass from the rebels, the soldiers and civilians in the city who had been hungry for a long time last night finally had a full meal.

Because they were grateful to Li Fei for defeating the rebels and breaking the siege of Nanyang, when Li Fei entered the city, many people spontaneously lined the road to welcome Li Fei.
