Chapter 499: Capture Xinye, slay Wang Wei (Silence)
Several Wei soldiers rushed out from behind the deputy general and quickly opened the city gate.
The sound made when the city gate "crunches" opens is the best signal.
The Wei army lined up not far outside the city without hesitation. When they heard the sound of the city gate opening, they quickly launched a charge. As long as the deputy general led his troops to guard the city gate for more than ten days, the three thousand cavalry led by Wei Yan could rush into the city!
As long as the cavalry enters the city, they can rush to disperse the defense of the Jingzhou army. Once the infantry arrives, Xinye City will almost have to declare a change of ownership.
The enemy attacked, fighting and screams echoed over Xinye City.
No matter how lazy the Shinye defenders were, they almost realized at this time and rushed to the city gate to reinforce.
The deputy general held the spear he had seized and stood at the gate of the city with a strong aura of being a man who could not open the door.
In just over a dozen breaths, the Jingzhou army had already attacked several times, but at the last moment, they would be defeated by the Cao army's soldiers first.
When night attacks occurred, soldiers naturally reported the situation to the guard Wang Wei as soon as possible.
"Report! General! An enemy attacked the south city gate at night!"
Wang Wei just heard a noise in his sleep. Now that someone came to report, he immediately turned over and put on his clothes and said, "Hurry up! Summon the defenders and follow me to the south gate!"
The soldiers who sent the order said in a faint panic: "General, it's Cao's army here! They turned over from the city wall. They have seized the southern city gate at this moment and are connecting with the army outside the city into the city!"
Wang Wei is the old general. Although the enemy is about to enter the city, he still maintains the most basic calm.
After putting on his armor and holding a sword, Wang Wei squeezed his hair into his helmet, and walked out of the room and asked, "How many people are there in Cao's army, who is the general in charge?"
The messenger shook his head and said, "It's too dark. We only know that there are about 200 people who have seized the city gate. As for the generals in the army, there are so many people outside the city that they can't see clearly."
Wang Wei did not waste time. He said as he walked: "Then why don't you go and order the troops to quickly assemble troops and make sure to take back the South Gate! Go!"
"Here!" After the messenger took the order, he spread his feet and ran away.
As soon as Wang Wei walked out of the house, the generals who had already had a sense of excitement gathered their troops.
It was too dark, and they lit torches and waited outside the city guard's mansion. After Wang Wei came, they immediately followed Wang Wei to support the south gate.
However, when most of Wang Wei's troops barely arrived at the South Gate, the cavalry led by Wei Yan rushed into the city gate!
"Cabin! Cavalry! Cavalry are coming in!" The soldiers in Jingzhou shouted in panic.
Seeing that his cavalry finally arrived, the deputy general and the last dozens of soldiers who had first climbed quickly dispersed, making way for Wei Yan and the cavalry behind him.
Wei Yan took the lead and led two thousand cavalry into the city.
Almost in an instant, the defenders who besieged the city gate of Xinye City were washed away!
Wang Wei took advantage of the fire at the city gate and watched his defenders fly around by the tall and strong war horses. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and said to himself: "Damn it! One step late!"
After the cavalry rushed out of defense, there must be a large number of infantrymen following behind.
Sure enough, after the cavalry rushed into the main street in the city, there were again shouts from the city gate!
Listen to the sound, there will never be a small number of people!
"What should I do? I'm afraid this city can't be kept!"
However, when Wang Wei just came up with this idea, Wei Yan had already discovered them.
"Follow me and charge!" Wei Yan raised his big knife and shouted.
"charge!
”
"kill!"
It is too late to retreat; if you force retreat at this time, it will only evolve into a defeat; if you fight to the death, you may still have a glimmer of hope!
Wang Wei made a quick decision and shouted: "Forge a formation and meet the enemy!"
These Jingzhou soldiers were all Wang Wei's old subordinates, well-trained and quick-responsive.
As soon as Wang Wei's words fell, a shield wall was built by the guards two meters in front of him!
"Swish!"
In the gap between the shield wall, countless spears suddenly stretched out. Looking at the sharp spear head shining with a cold light in the fire, if the cavalry just bumped into it, it would be very uncomfortable.
But Wei Yan and the cavalry behind him did not slow down.
The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!
Wei Yan stared at the dense spear in front of him. When he was five steps away from the spear shield formation, he suddenly shouted and stepped on the horse and jumped over the shield formation, falling into the Jingzhou army's formation!
Because Wang Wei was blocked by the shield wall, he didn't know what was happening outside the shield wall.
He was holding his breath and preparing to command the battle, but suddenly he saw a black shadow falling from the sky and was stunned.
"What?"
"It's a man, a general of Cao's army!"
"Kill him!"
Wei Yan's divine weapon descended from the sky to cause the Jingzhou army to panic. After he landed, he blocked the god of killing the god of killing the god of killing the Buddha, causing a lot of bloody storm!
Wang Wei didn't care about commanding the defense because he was less than five steps away from Wei Yan.
After Wei Yan cleanly killed more than a dozen guards surrounding him, he raised his sword and killed Wang Wei!
"Come, protect the general!" Jingzhou army came back from panic and immediately shouted and gathered around Wang Wei.
But at this moment, the cavalry of Cao's army had already broken through the unmanned and supported shield formation at the cost of dozens of cavalry casualties!
"General Wang, you have no chance of winning, surrender!"
Wang Wei was about to command the soldiers to form a defensive formation again, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice.
Wei Yan raised his hand and stopped the Cao army cavalry behind him who wanted to take the opportunity to attack Wang Wei and the Jingzhou army behind him. Although the cavalry were unwilling to give up, they finally stopped slowly behind Wei Yan.
Wang Wei saw that the general Cao's army in front of him was familiar with him, but he couldn't remember who his surname was, so he asked, "You are..."
"Wei Yan, I once met the general." Wei Yan raised his lips and continued with a sarcastic smile: "But I was just a small lieutenant at that time, and I'm afraid I didn't catch your eyes."
"Wei Yan!" After hearing this name, Wang Wei finally had some impressions, "It turned out that it was you... a person who betrayed the Lord and asked for honor. I have always despised me, let alone remembered me?"
Wang Wei was strong-willed. After Wei Yan talked to him for a few words, he realized that this man could not be persuaded to surrender.
So Wei Yan walked back to his cavalry team, turned over the war horse led by his personal guard, and said, "Since that's the case, don't blame Wei for being ruthless!"
Wang Wei laughed and said, "What a thief, just let the horse come over!"
......
In the night attack on Xinye, Wei Yan killed Wang Wei, the guard general of Xinye. Cao's army killed more than 2,000 enemies and captured hundreds of people. At this point, Xinye fell into the hands of Cao's army.
The fall of Xinye,
This marks that the north of the Han River has basically fallen into the hands of the Cao family, and now there is only one Fancheng left and is still hanging alone on the north bank of the Han River.
