There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that the place where the star fell must be captured by the Han army.

Of course Sima Huan had never heard of this rumor, but when he was at the mountain pass, he was indeed frightened by this inexplicable star drop.

At that time, two falling stars appeared at the mouth of the river valley, and he was almost cut off from his escape.

 Now another star has fallen.

And they are exactly the same as the two at the mouth of the river valley.

He scrambled to his feet and ran towards the location of the soldiers he had brought back without looking back.

 The cavalry that came back from the mountain pass had not yet rested and their morale was low, so there were only hundreds of local county soldiers guarding the city gates at this time.

 At each city gate, there were only about a hundred people.

 There is no problem in maintaining order at the city gate on weekdays. It can also be used to cheer for people from behind.

But it would be too difficult for them to have a few hundred people to fight against the black army outside the city that could not be seen at a glance.

They were able to close the city gate tightly at this time and did not flee immediately, which already showed great courage.

Just when the city of Jinyang was in chaos due to the large army outside the city, a group of rangers quietly gathered on the street near the north gate.

But when Xinghui appeared, someone suddenly shouted: "Reverse Wei and restore Han!"

 This slogan is like a clarion call for charge.

These knights-errants immediately drew out their swords and shouted: "Reverse Wei and restore Han!"

The county soldiers at the North Gate were still looking up at the falling stars appearing in the sky above them, when they saw a group of people rushing toward the North Gate with swords raised.

These county soldiers thought that the Han army outside the city had already invaded the city from somewhere, and some of them turned around and tried to escape.

However, among the county soldiers there were old soldiers who had retreated from the front of the formation. They quickly stopped them and said loudly:

"Don't run away, these are just some scoundrels who want to take advantage of the chaos, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"

 “Raise the gun, raise the gun!”

 “Just practice as you usually do, hurry up!”

After a moment of panic, and with people's hearts fluctuating, the old soldier was able to organize thirty or forty people into a sparse formation to face the enemy.

 After all, he is not a regular army. It is rare that he can react like this when the army is pressing down on the situation and people's hearts are fluctuating.

Someone not far away saw this scene and couldn't help but muttered: "It's really troublesome. Sure enough, the plan can't change as fast as it does."

"hurry up!"

"Enough!"

 Two short spears made in Hanyang, the head of one was removed, and then the lower end of the other was butted together to form a prohibited long spear.

　　It shook a little, and it was shaking a bit, and it probably wasn't too strong, and it was certainly incomparable to a real spear.

 It's almost enough to be used against county soldiers.

"Walk!"

“Han Long, the commander-in-chief of the Liangzhou Army of the Han Dynasty, is here. The traitor shall die!”

With a loud shout, a dozen people suddenly rushed out from the side. Everyone was holding a spear, arranged in a small charging formation, and used Han Long as an arrow to kill them from the side.

 

The knight's courage suddenly gave out and he retreated. Someone was loudly encouraging the crowd to prevent them from scattering.

However, the ranger rushed in a random manner without any means. Although it was anticlimactic, it successfully attracted the entire attention of the county soldiers.

The county soldiers never thought that the real killing was from the side.

The dozen or so people led by Han Long were well organized, not to mention the rangers, but even compared to the sparse county soldiers.

Caught off guard, the county soldiers killed several people at once, and several others fell to the ground groaning.

　　For the regular army, this kind of situation is trivial, and the rear team can immediately make up for it.

 It's just that these county soldiers don't have a big problem dealing with the unorganized rangers.

Now that he was rushed out of the gap, and because he had seen blood on his side, he became timid for a moment.

One of the guards guarding Han Long stabbed him too hard, and the spear he pieced together in his hand broke with a "click".

He secretly screamed bad luck and took a step back. His teammates quickly filled the gap. He took the opportunity to pick up a long spear from the dead county soldier on the ground.

 This kind of cooperation is clearly superior to that of Jinyang County soldiers.

 The small group battle at the gate of the city is suitable for a master like Han Long.

He was charging left and right with a gun, and few county soldiers could stop him.

Seeing that the chaos was getting bigger and bigger, the old soldier leading the county soldiers ignored the ranger directly in front and hurried over to stop Han Long.

 How could he stop Han Long and dozens of elite soldiers by himself?

With his rich experience in battle, he was able to avoid one shot from Han Long, and three more spears pierced several parts of his body.

 The armor on the old soldier's body has long been in tatters, and many places have been patched up with leather armor.

 Blocked two shots, but couldn't block the third one.

 “Poof!”

 Blood gushed out like a fountain.

Han Long took another shot during the gap between the lightning and flint.

 The old soldier said "Uh-huh" twice and was picked to death on the spot.

Without their leader, the remaining county soldiers lost their courage. Whoever took the lead gave a shout and fled one after another.

Jinyang North Gate changes hands!

 “Open the city gate, quickly!”

 Seeing the county soldiers being killed and dispersed, the courage of the rangers returned, and they hurriedly stepped forward to help turn the winch.

 The gate made a heart-wrenching "click-click" sound and was gradually lifted.

There is no Wengcheng at the north gate. After all, for more than two hundred years, even dangerous passes such as Yanmen Fortress have not received much attention. Who would have thought that the enemy would come from the north?

Liu Hun, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, raised his glass and shouted: "Kill!" before the city gate was fully opened.

 He couldn’t wait to lead the people through the city gate and into the city.

They entered the city only a hundred feet away, but saw a Wei army arriving at the end of the street. Who was Sima Huan, who had just gathered the remaining troops?

Sima Huan ran all the way back to Jinyang, but he still hadn't had time to take a few breaths.

 The soldiers below are even worse. Not only are they scattered, but their morale is extremely low.

In a hurry, he could only gather a few hundred people and hurried to the north gate.

Unexpectedly, before he arrived, the sound of horse hooves could be heard from the other side of the street.

Looking up, I saw that the Han army’s cavalry was already galloping inside Jinyang City.

 “Kill the thief!”

 Although it is on the street, Jinyang is the largest city in Bingzhou, and the streets are wide enough.

What’s more important is that Sima Huan led a group of defeated soldiers and hurriedly arrived without any formation at all.

When Liu Hun saw the scattered Wei army, he leaned down slightly and his long horse drooped. Instead of slowing down, the horse's hoofbeats became even more rapid.

The red iron cavalry swept across the Wei army in a matter of seconds.

 In the rush, Sima Huan only saw Ma Shan's head, a cold light flashing across somewhere, and then a touch of blood-red floating up.

Sima Huan’s last thought was: It’s better to fight to the death at the mountain pass!

It’s just that they didn’t consider that the Xiongnu would rebel, and they didn’t even have the chance to face-to-face with the Shu captives at the mountain pass.

Five thousand soldiers were chased all the way, and less than two thousand escaped back to Jinyang. As a result, the undefended Jinyang City was easily captured by the Shu captives...

It can be said that this battle was an inexplicable and sudden death.

It was not only Sima Huan who died suddenly. When the governor Bi Gui learned that the Han army had broken into the city, he laughed several times and immediately committed suicide in the governor's mansion.

The county soldiers in Jinyang City were not afraid, but the Wei army who fled back was discouraged. The Han army that entered the city hardly encountered any decent resistance, and took control of Bingzhou, the largest city.

"Da da da……"

General Guan, who was riding a tall horse, passed through the gate and entered the city under the escort of his personal guards.

The rangers who had been guarding the city gate and did not leave could not help but feel a commotion.

Facing dozens of blazing gazes, General Guan smiled slightly on his extremely handsome face. He suddenly reined in the horse's rope, turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists at the ranger and said:

“Guan thanked you all for your help.”

When the knights saw this handsome general dismounting from his horse and thanking him personally, many of them looked flattered and returned the favor, saying in all directions:

"Although we are reckless, we still know a little bit about the great righteousness. To fight against the traitors and restore the Han Dynasty, this is where righteousness lies!"
