One thousand and eighty-eight, Fancheng broke

The Song army that came to support was wearing the Song army's flag, wearing the Song army's uniform, and using the Song army's weapons.

Wang Yan, who was guarding Xiangyang, even saw the commander-in-chief of the Song army.

He didn't know who was coming to help this time, and he couldn't see the words on it from a distance, but he knew very clearly that the handsome flag was indeed in the Song army's style.

And only the commander of the Song army can use it, and no one will use it.

Recalling the situation in the past few days and their expectations, almost everyone subconsciously believed that the Song army reinforcements arrived. The Song army reinforcements broke through the Ming army's blockade line and came to support them!

Where do you need any other certification?

Zhou Benyuan, who was under great pressure, saw the Song army reinforcements defeating the Ming army in besieged, and the Ming army in besieged fleeing, while the Song army approached Fancheng step by step.

The Song army in the city was infuriated and their morale was greatly boosted. Everyone shouted loudly to go out of the city to help the battle, defeat the Ming army, and obtain the final victory.

He ordered the city gate to be opened, the suspension bridge was lowered, and the elite troops were sent out of the city, preparing to attack the Ming army on both sides, and to give the Ming army a fierce battle to obtain the final victory.

The suspension bridge was lowered, and the Song army in Fancheng City launched a large-scale attack, trying to cooperate with the Song army outside the city to kill the retreating Ming army.

The Song army soldier shouted loudly, his posture, courage, and impact speed seemed to pour out all the depression and fears of these days in one breath, and he was completely proud...

But who knew that the situation suddenly changed.

The Song army, who were pursuing the Ming army and the retreating Ming army turned their offensive and rushed towards the Song army who came to support them.

The Ming soldiers in Ming army uniforms and the Song army in Song army uniforms joined forces to attack the Fancheng Song army who had just rushed out, killing the Fancheng Song army in a confused manner. Many people were cut down to death before they even raised the knife in their hands.

The killed Song soldiers did not realize why they were killed and why they died so miserably.

Why?

Why are our comrades coming to kill us?

But this is not the most critical. The most critical thing is that after rushing, a chaotic situation outside the city, a large number of Song soldiers were in a mess, and they ran back with ghosts and wolves howling, blocking the road from the city gate to a large group of outside the city, and the Song soldiers in the city were also in a mess.

Zhou Benyuan on the top of the city had actually noticed the problem. He was immediately frightened and instinctively asked his soldiers to close the city gate and pull up the suspension bridge to prevent the Ming army from assaulting.

But they couldn't do it at all, because the soldiers operating the suspension bridge and closing the city gate were washed away by the collapsed Song army crowd. Many people stepped on each other and squeezed each other. Many people were trampled to death in front of the city gate and at the city gate, and many people were killed.

Moreover, many Ming soldiers and Ming soldiers pretending to be Song soldiers rushed forward desperately, slashing and killing a lot. They rushed forward and rushed directly to the city gate and in front of the city gate. There was another wave of killing.

What's even more terrifying is that the main force of the Ming army in the rear also pushed various siege equipment to attack Fancheng, with a very fast speed, and it tended to directly impact Fancheng's walls through the moat.

Zhou Benyuan was so scared that he was so despair that he desperately ordered his subordinates to close the city gate and pull up the suspension bridge. After finding that it was invalid, he sent all his personal guards out and asked them to carry out the mission. So the elite personal soldiers also fought with steel knives and continued to kill the fleeing Song soldiers.

The Song army in the city was completely in a melee.

They killed themselves, and the Ming army was also killing them. They could not tell who was the enemy and who was the friend.

So in order to survive, they could only kill each other, no matter who he was, kill him when he saw him, rush over to fight, bite, poke the eyes, insert the nostrils, and stuck the neck...

The city was in chaos, the order of the Song army completely collapsed, and the miserable situation was almost equivalent to the bombing of the camp.

Under such a chaotic situation, the Ming army outside the city finally broke through the gate of Fancheng main gate, which was more than ten meters long, passed through the urn city, entered the city, killed the Song army everywhere in the city, and then entered the city with great organizational structure to seize important military and civil strongholds in the city.

While the city gate hole was completely lost, the Song army on the city wall could not hold back because the Ming army had already pushed the well railing and other large siege equipment such as the van approached the Song army's city wall.

This was the first time that the Ming army had attacked the Song army's city wall in such a long time. Faced with such a situation, the Song army on the city wall was almost unresponsive and was rushed to the city wall by the Ming army and started fighting.

Zhou Benyuan was on the city wall.

He watched the Ming soldiers with red eyes rushing fiercely to the city wall through the ladder on the siege equipment, jumped directly and threw down the Song soldiers one by one, and then killed them.

Most of the Song army on the top of the city were killed in an instant. Zhou Benyuan fought and retreated under the protection of a few guards to try to escape. However, the armor he wore made the Ming soldiers judge that his identity was different, so he chased him reluctantly and chased him all the way. Zhou Benyuan could not get down to the city wall after all.

He was surrounded by Ming army in the corner of the city wall and still fought endlessly. When the last guard was also killed by the Ming army, he looked at the messy city wall and the pairs of eyes full of hatred in front of him, and was extremely desperate.

So he gave up his resistance, but did not surrender, but committed suicide by slashing his sword.

After Zhou Benyuan's death, Fancheng could not continue to resist. More than 10,000 defenders in the city were killed by the Ming army, and the rest defected in a panic and fled in a panic.

Under this circumstance, the strong men in the city could no longer sit still. They spontaneously picked up their weapons and began to chase Song Bing in Song army uniforms. When they found out, they rushed forward with red eyes and chased them.

Often when Ming soldiers were chasing the Song army's defeated soldiers, they would find a group of uneven clothes, pale and thin people rushing over with weapons, knocking the Song army soldiers who were fleeing in a panic to the ground, and then chopping them into meat paste.

Perhaps because they hated these Song soldiers too much, even some women rushed out with steel knives and killed the Song soldiers. Even the Ming soldiers who had just entered in the Song army uniforms were attacked by the people.

They quickly shouted that they were not Song Bing, and then showed them the black cloth tapes on their arms. Some people stopped and some were red in their eyes. They waved their swords to kill these Ming soldiers.

The Ming army strictly stipulated the military regulations and must not face the people with swords. They had no choice but to turn around and escape, and find their comrades in Ming army uniforms for help.

Such a situation occurred in every corner of Fancheng City. The young and strong men who were pulled into the city to act as tycoons and cannon fodder had revenge and revenge, and they held machetes and chopped the Song soldiers who ran away with their heads.

During the street fighting period, there were quite a lot of Song soldiers killed by the strong men in the city.

Until the entire Fan City was captured by the Ming army, the Ming army finally freed up their hands to control the restless strong men in the city, disarmed them and took care of them.

The captives of the Song army were finally safe for the time being.

On May 28, the fifth year of Hongwu, Fancheng was captured by the Ming army.
