Chapter 752

Yan Liang found two surrogates for the dead, and continued to "guard" Xuanwu Pass, while the large army quietly evacuated to Weiwu Pass. Under the bombardment of artillery, Xuanwuguan was lifeless and lifeless.

The abnormality of the coalition forces was quickly noticed by the Second Army.

"General, something is wrong, the enemy won't withdraw?"

Zhang Han also had this doubt, thought for a while, and ordered decisively: "Shoot the city gate and prepare to attack!"

"promise!"

Amidst the rumbling shelling, the gate of the city broke down.

A mighty army poured into Xuanwu Pass like a black tide, and only five thousand defenders were seen.

The two scapegoats didn't have the courage to die generously. Seeing the enemy army entering the pass, they simply chose to surrender. He knew everything about Zhang Han's inquiries.

Knowing that the main force of the coalition forces had withdrawn, Zhang Han immediately ordered: "Chen Yucheng!"

"The end is here!"

A young general came out in response, and it was Chen Yucheng, one of the peerless twins of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Chen Yucheng fought bravely and had a high level of comprehension. He won Zhang Han's trust and love, and he did not hesitate to teach him his life's teachings. This young general has grown into the mainstay of the Second Legion.

Ouyang Shuo has already confessed that whether it is Chen Yucheng or Li Xiucheng under Di Qing's command, the army commanders should focus on training these young generals with potential to help them grow into talents.

In particular, Li Xiucheng, Chen Yucheng and other generals of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, who were born in the Qing Dynasty, are familiar with firearms and are the best candidates for the formation of exclusive firearms troops in the future.

"Let you lead five thousand fine cavalry and pursue them all the way. Remember one thing, don't be greedy for meritorious service, and return it immediately before reaching Weiwu Pass." Zhang Han ordered.

"Follow the command!"

Chen Yucheng clasped his fists and took the order to leave.

After a little leaning, five thousand cavalry rushed out of Xuanwu Pass and chased them all the way.

Zhang Han then led his troops to take over Xuanwu Pass, took in the surrendered generals, cleaned up the battlefield, and at the same time prepared a battle report, and went to command Han Xin as the leader of the Leopard Army, waiting for the next command from the command.

…………

Chen Yucheng led his troops to pursue, and as soon as he reached the middle, he found the coalition forces that were retreating rapidly.

"kill!"

Chen Yucheng didn't hesitate, and directly led his troops to kill the general.

There is only one rugged mountain road connecting the two passes. The mountain road is narrow, but only three or four meters wide. The 40,000 coalition troops formed a long stretch of dragon. The front army has already entered the Weiwu Pass, and the rear army is still on the way.

Faced with Chen Yucheng's men hiding from behind, Yan Liang was not prepared at all.

In addition to leaving 5,000 sergeants to "guard" Xuanwu Pass, Yan Liang also arranged a special force in the rear army to be in charge of the rear. Just one point, Yan Liang underestimated Zhang Han's decisiveness.

As soon as Zhang Han found that something was wrong, Zhang Han immediately ordered to attack the pass, and even as soon as he got the information, he arranged for elite cavalry to pursue it.

In this way, the rear army was caught off guard.

On the narrow mountain road, the sword and shield soldiers in charge of the rear of the palace were pierced by the cavalry led by Chen Yucheng before they could form their formation, and they were routed.

Looking from a high altitude, I saw that the five thousand cavalry led by Chen Yucheng, like a sharp arrow, pierced fiercely into the coalition formation from behind, and then pierced to the end like a skewer.

Wherever the cavalry passed, whether it was a sword and shield soldier or a spearman, they were either trampled to death, or directly pierced by the cavalry's spear, and more often they were rushed by the cavalry, squeezed to the foothills on both sides, and fell to the ground .

The scene was once very chaotic.

Chen Yucheng is very smart and does not pursue the number of kills. There is only one thought in his mind, to charge, to charge, to charge again, to completely disperse the enemy army and defeat their will.

The view is very narrow on the narrow mountain road.

After being charged by the cavalry, the soldiers in the rear were immediately scared out of their wits. They didn't know how many enemy troops were coming, they just kept rushing forward.

"Run, the enemy is coming!"

Sergeant 1 dropped his luggage and ran forward like a rabbit.

"How many people are here?" Sergeant B asked.

Sergeant A replied: "At least five thousand!"

"Five thousand? At least tens of thousands!" Sergeant C vowed.

"There are so many, then run for your life!"

Sergeant B was so frightened that his face paled, he left his luggage and ran for his life.

The soldiers were like a flock of frightened rabbits, running forward with all their might.

Panic is like dominoes, which keep passing forward.

During this process, the number of enemy troops continued to snowball, first five thousand, then ten thousand, then twenty thousand, and then directly to one hundred thousand troops.

"One hundred thousand? The enemy's army is only seventy thousand. Where did the one hundred thousand come from?" Sergeant Ding questioned.

Sergeant C vowed again: "You don't understand this, Shanhai City has more than one Second Legion."

"Brother is right."

When Sergeant Ding heard this, he didn't care whether it was reasonable or not, it was always right to flee into Weiwu Pass as soon as possible.

The army that hadn't entered the customs was in chaos, and there were countless "vicious incidents" such as stampedes, group fights, and brother betrayals, and there were no less than five hundred soldiers who were trampled to death by their own people.

It wasn't until this time that Yan Liang, who had already entered the customs, realized that something was wrong and asked, "What's going on?"

"Report to the general, the enemy is coming." The lieutenant reported.

"How many people are here? Panic like this!"

"Ten, one hundred thousand!"

The lieutenant stuttered, obviously undecided whether to believe this information or not. The problem is that as long as the soldiers who escaped into the pass, they all claimed that the enemy army numbered as many as 100,000.

One by one vowed, with a sincere look.

With that level of piety, they are afraid that if the officers say "unbelief", they will jump off the tower to show their innocence.

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound, and Yan Liang, who had a fiery temper, had been holding back his anger for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it now, he whipped down, and beat the lieutenant until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

"You bastard. One hundred thousand troops? Are you joking? Can you believe this?!"

Yan Liang was no fool, he didn't believe that the enemy army would be so stupid as to send 100,000 troops to attack on the narrow mountain road, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? !

The lieutenant's stupidity completely ignited Yan Liang's anger.

"Forgive me, General!"

The deputy general didn't dare to argue, and knelt down on the ground tremblingly.

"Stupid!"

Yan Liang couldn't see such a coward, so he kicked down again, "Get lost!"

After repairing the lieutenant general, Yan Liang took advantage of the opportunity to climb to the top of the city, raised his eyes to look at the mountain road, his expression was instantly dignified.

On the stretch of the mountain road, the coalition forces have completely messed up.

The enemy cavalry galloped recklessly on the mountain road, reaping the lives of the coalition forces like harvesting wheat. The coalition forces that were already in a mess did not have the slightest intention to fight, and they only wanted to run forward and escape for their lives.

On the foothills on both sides, soldiers of the coalition army who were running for their lives could be seen everywhere.

"General, do you want to arrange for the army to go down to support?" One of Ling's lieutenants cautiously suggested.

Yan Liang shook his head, "It's useless. The mountain road is narrow. Sending troops now to block their retreat will only increase the panic of the soldiers and will not help."

"Maybe it will cause even greater panic." Yan Liang didn't say this.

"so what should I do now?"

Yan Liang looked cold, "Wait another half an hour. After half an hour, close the city gate immediately."

"promise!"

The lieutenant trembled in his heart and did not dare to refute.

No wonder Yan Liang was ruthless. Although he didn't believe that the enemy had dispatched 100,000 troops, he still couldn't control the number of the enemy. If the enemy army takes this opportunity to rush into Weiwu Pass, it will be a lot of fun.

This is what Ci Bu Zhang Bing said.

…………

"Boom~~~"

Half an hour later, the city gate of Weiwuguan closed slowly, resolutely and firmly.

A city gate separates the two worlds.

Those who enter are saved, while those who do not enter are like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.

Some sergeants who managed to escape to the city were ruthlessly blocked from the city gate, all of them looked desperate, with madness and anger mixed with despair.

A kind of despair of being abandoned spreads and takes root in the hearts of soldiers.

"Open the door, open the city gate quickly!"

"Open the door, let us in!"

"General, save us!"

No matter how hard the sergeant begged, Yan Liang remained indifferent.

Compared with Xuanwu Pass, there are only 20,000 soldiers stationed at Weiwu Pass. Therefore, as a general under the command of Ximen Daguan, Yan Liang led his troops to Weiwu Pass and immediately took over the command of the pass.

The mighty gatekeeper didn't even dare to fart.

Not to mention other things, Ximen Daguan is the number one lord of [Northern Sichuan City-state], a real giant.

Yan Liang didn't let go, no one dared to open the city gate.

In just a short while, Chen Yucheng had already led his troops to the vicinity of Weiwu Pass. Seeing that the city gate was closed, he felt a sneer in his heart. The enemy's reaction did not exceed his expectations.

"Stop going."

Chen Yucheng was not dazzled by the victory, and kept Zhang Han's instructions in mind.

With a "swipe", the five thousand fine cavalry with almost no battle damage, even in the chaotic battlefield, still stopped neatly.

Such a strong quality is really beyond the reach of the coalition forces.

"Pass down the order, surrender and not kill!"

Chen Yucheng followed the order, but he saw that the coalition forces outside the city had separated from the main force.

"promise!"

In an instant, hundreds of Qingqi came out, spreading orders to surrender.

When the soldiers of the coalition army heard that since the city gates were closed, there was no talk of loyalty, so they simply chose to surrender without stopping.

When someone takes the lead, join with the bigger ones.

Suddenly, there were countless surrenders. At the back, the sergeant, who was still hesitant, saw that his comrades around him surrendered, his heart trembled in fright, and he stammered to surrender.

They were really worried that if they dragged on, they would be tied up by the comrades around them and sent over to claim credit.

Rather than that, it is better to follow and surrender.

It has long been heard that the Shanhai City army is treated much better than them, so why hesitate? !

On the top of the city, Yan Liang's face became even uglier when he saw it.

For Yan Liang, this day was indeed a bit of a torment.

…………

Chen Yucheng didn't dare to delay, and he had no intention of provoking the coalition forces at the top of the city. After tidying up a bit, he escorted tens of thousands of surrendered troops and set off on his way home.

In this battle, Chen Yucheng killed more than 6,000 enemies and took 10,000 prisoners with only 5,000 elite cavalry, which can be said to have made a great contribution.

Even Zhang Han, who ordered the pursuit, probably never expected to achieve such brilliant results.

Chen Yucheng, a young general, became famous in one battle!
