Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 174 Attacking Runan

Bang, boom, boom.
Zhang Liao led hundreds of elite wolf cavalry from Bingzhou, colliding with thousands of cavalry.

However, the impact of the horse's charge is not a joke. Many elite Bingzhou wolf riders were knocked so that they vomited blood and flew backwards, and fell to the ground without any life left.

However, it does not mean that the elite wolf cavalry in Bingzhou had no results, and many cavalry fell under their butcher's knives.

"drink!"

Zhang Liao, who was the arrow of the arrow array, gave a loud shout, held the long spear stabbed by the cavalry with his left hand, and dragged it hard, pulling the cavalry off the horse's back, and stabbed the long spear held by the right hand, and then sent the long spear into the ground. the chest of the cavalry.

Let go of the spear that pierced the cavalry's chest with his right hand, hold the reins of the horse that was still running, and turn directly on the horse. All the actions were completed almost instantly.

Thousands of cavalry charged in the past, and turned around on the left and right sides.

The rest of the Bingzhou wolf riders also snatched the horses that had lost their soldiers, got on their horses, and gathered behind Zhang Liao.

The two armies looked at each other.

In a round of charge, the cavalry also lost some soldiers and horses, but the one who lost the most was the Bingzhou wolf cavalry. There were almost 700 Bingzhou wolf cavalry, and now there are less than 200 left.

Zhang Liao retreated to the gate passage with less than 200 elite Bingzhou wolf cavalry.

Although it seems that the number of people is small, it gives the impression of the defenders of Runan City that a great change has taken place in their temperament. The Bingzhou Wolf Rider with a horse and the Bingzhou Wolf Rider without a horse are like a different person.

If the previous Bingzhou wolfriders were only brave and not afraid of death, the current Bingzhou wolfriders have undergone great changes, with a fierce and indomitable fighting spirit exuding from all over their bodies.

"It's just a dying struggle, kill!" Chen Ji shouted.

He couldn't let the Bingzhou wolf cavalry continue to occupy the city gate passage, he had to take it back. As long as the city gate was not broken, with the strength of the city, he could completely hold on. If the city gate was lost, then everything would be hard to say.

Just when the Runan cavalry wanted to obey the order and launch a second charge.

Boom~~
There was a sound of galloping war horses, but it was not their charge from Runan City, but from outside the city.

View from the fully opened city gate.

A group of cavalry was galloping towards the city with an invincible momentum. The leader was wearing a white robe and silver armor, holding a long spear, and a war horse without any hair on his crotch.

A black flag embroidered with the word "Liu" in gold was held by a soldier in red and black armor, followed closely behind.

"Jingzhou Liu Qi is here!"

"Lu Bu of Bingzhou is here! Who dares to fight!"

Two shouts came from outside the city gate.

It turned out that Liu Qi and Lu Bu did not lead their troops close to Runan City. After all, the terrain of Runan City was wide and the front was unobstructed. They could only stay three miles away to watch the situation in Runan.

They waited until the sounding arrow exploded in the sky and a ray of light shone before leading the troops forward. Of course, Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were still outside, and it was the Jingzhou army who charged.

In front of the city gate passage, one side is happy and the other is worried.

"kill!"

Zhang Liao was overjoyed, knowing that the reinforcements had arrived, he had no more worries, so he mounted his horse and raised his gun, and charged towards the soldiers in the city.

There were less than 200 elite Bingzhou wolf cavalry left, and without fear, they followed behind Zhang Liao and charged towards the enemy.

Liu Qi, Lu Bu!
The defenders in the city were shocked when they heard the shouts of the two men. Liu Qi led the army to come, which is known all over the world, but Lu Bu's arrival is different, and he is still united with Liu Qi.

Chen Ji's face also changed drastically. Even with Liu Qi leading troops, he didn't dare to lead troops to fight with the same strength, let alone add another Lv Bu.

The main thing is that the gates of the city are still wide open.

"kill!"

Knowing that the destruction of the city was a foregone conclusion, Chen Ji had no choice but to fight to the death, so he raised his sword on his horse and charged forward.

The defenders of Runan City, seeing Chen Ji's behavior, also stabilized their minds, and the whole army covered and killed them.

"kill!"

At this time, Liu Qi and Lu Bu, who came from outside the city to hide and kill, also led the army to rush into the passage of the city gate, and came into the city to hide and kill.

Half of the defenders on the city wall were dispatched to encircle Zhang Liao and others because they wanted to retake the city gate. In addition, Chen Ji led [-] cavalry to arrive, but they did not expect that they would not take back the city gate in the end.

The remaining defenders of the city wall couldn't organize any effective blocking, so Liu Qi and others led the army to rush to the city gate passage.

One time
In front of this empty city gate passage, the two armies fought together, and the battle continued.

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere, and soldiers fell to the ground every moment, unable to get up again.

The gleaming cold weapon drank countless blood.

Soldiers from both sides fought one after another and threw themselves into the battle, fighting to the death.

The defenders on the city wall also abandoned the city wall, descended from the city wall, and joined the battle.

Liu Qi, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, a group of generals rushed left and right among the chaotic army as if they were in no man's land, no one could stop them at all.

Chen Ji didn't go to fight these enemy generals either. When he saw the generals' flags from afar, he turned around and went into the rebellious army, so as to delay the time when Runan City fell into the enemy's hands.

Time passed slowly.
The wailing, shouting, weapon clashing, and screams in the city also gradually subsided.

The battle also settled down with Chen Ji's death among the chaotic army, and the rest was just some small groups of resistance, which could not stop the Jingzhou army's pace at all.

In front of the city gate passage, as the main battlefield, it can be said that corpses are piled up like a mountain, and countless blood flows on the ground, dyeing the bluestone slabs in this empty area red, and when you step on it, it is thick Yes, blood that has not yet clotted.

Bingzhou soldiers and horses also entered Runan City under the leadership of Guo Jia and Chen Gong after the battle was settled, and took over all affairs such as city defense.

Runan City fell and fell into the joint efforts of Liu Qi and Lu Bu.

With the end of the battle, the people in the city were able to calm down, but they didn't dare to step out to see which side won the victory. They could only wait for the result to be announced tomorrow.

Although Runan City was won in this battle, a certain price was paid.

A thousand Bingzhou wolf riders were elite, and in the end less than a hundred remained; the Jingzhou army suffered more than [-] casualties.

This is still the result after opening the city gate. Zhang Liao led a thousand elite wolf riders from Bingzhou to take down the city gate and open the city gate. Then the price to be paid for forcibly attacking the city would not be just that little.

After taking Runan City.
Liu Qi also ignored the affairs of Runan City, such as how the original officials of Runan City dealt with it, etc. After integrating the soldiers and horses, he withdrew from the city and set up camp. After all, this was an agreement between him and Lu Bu.

The captured Runan City belongs to Lu Bu, and if it weren't for Lu Bu, he would not have thought of capturing Runan City. With the strength of the Jingzhou Army, once the troops from all walks of life arrive, it will not be easy to defend Runan City. things.
