Gao Gang walked in the last branch of the team and was one of the first to feel the shock.

He was very shocked in his heart, wasn't there two thousand soldiers behind him?

Why can the rebel cavalry catch up so quickly, and the soldiers behind them don't even have time to send out the alarm?

Gao Gang thought it was unlikely, and if the rebel cavalry caught up, the alarm could still be sent out.

The Shun army is not just cavalry.

Among the 2,000 shun troops after the breakup, there was a 30-man cavalry squad, so it was impossible not to send out even a single message.

Regardless of Gao Gang's doubts, the fact that the cavalry of the guard led by Ma Teng caught up cannot be changed.

"Defend on the spot!" Gao Gang ordered in a deep voice.

Running away is the worst way to deal with it.

After all, two legs cannot run with four legs.

Moreover, it was not far from Yangwei City, and they could quickly retreat to the root of the city wall while fighting. Gao Gang didn't believe that the rebel cavalry dared to attack the city.

If Gao Gang really led the Shun army to withdraw to Yangwei City, Ma Teng would really not be able to attack the city.

He has only two thousand cavalry, neither of which is suitable for siege.

So where are the other three thousand cavalry?

(Yang Yuan replenished Ma Teng's 5,000 cavalry and said that this was the last time he would replenish his troops before the end of the war.)

Of course, it was the 2,000 Shun army after the attack was over.

Ma Teng led 2,000 cavalry to detour, and the other 3,000 cavalry pursued along the retreating road of the Shun army.

It's not that the 2,000 soldiers Gao Gang left behind didn't help, but he didn't expect that Ma Teng would split his troops into two groups.

The Shun army behind could stop one cavalry, but not two.

What's more, they didn't even see the shadow of the second cavalry.

Ma Teng caught up after a long circle, otherwise he would have caught up with the speed of the imperial war horse.

The other cavalry is estimated to be finished by now.

Ma Teng will catch up with Gao Gang.

After the two armies met, there was no nonsense. The guard cavalry began to charge, and the Shun army began to form a formation to resist.

It's just that this battle is much less intense than the previous ones.

The imperial warhorse had already charged more than once today, and even made a half-way charge. Although it was still sharp when it charged again, it still lacked some impact.

Similarly, the Shun army also consumed a lot of physical strength, but they felt powerless when resisting the charge of the guard cavalry.

Just a slight difference in physical strength is a fatal shortcoming on the battlefield.

Ma Teng reprimanded him for charging too slowly last time, but this time the cavalry soldiers were extra serious.

Even though the physical strength of the horses has declined somewhat, the fighting spirit of the cavalry is even higher.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the Shun Army not only suffered a serious decline in physical strength (they had no horses to ride), but also their morale was not very high.

It can only be said that with Gao Gang present, their morale has not become negative, nor is it zero, but it is at most one or two.

The guard cavalry started with at least ten morale, and the two sides were not at the same level at all.

Two thousand cavalry against three thousand infantry.

The results speak for themselves.

Gao Gang didn't leave any soldiers behind this time, in fact he didn't have any soldiers to leave behind.

If hundreds or thousands of people stay, it will only stir up a few waves, and nothing will be left behind.

Finally, after several rounds of charges by the guard cavalry, Gao Gang and the remnants began to flee.

If Feiyangwei City was right in front of him, Gao Gang would definitely not continue to flee. Sometimes it is a relief to die on the battlefield.

Going back to Yangwei City is definitely a painful thing for Gao Gang.

It was only his body that came back alive, and his spirit had been lost in this battle.

It's an exaggeration to say that he is a walking dead, but he must have lost 80% of his spirit.

After Gu, he may never lead troops out of the city again.

No matter how many grain transportation teams outside were robbed, it had nothing to do with his admiration in the city.

Ma Teng chased Shunjun all the way to the outside of Yangwei City, and left after being threatened by bows and arrows shot from the city wall.

In the end, there were less than five hundred Shunjun soldiers who fled back to Yangwei City with Gao Gang.

There must have been wandering Shun army routs outside the city, but under the threat of the guard cavalry, they either surrendered or hid in other places incognito.

Returning to Yangwei City is the most dangerous path, and only the most loyal and ambitious soldiers are likely to choose this path.

It's just possible.

After being driven away by the archers of Yangwei City, Ma Teng left Yangwei City with his cavalry.

"It's a pity that the chief general of the Shun Army was not left behind!"

Ma Teng glanced back at Yangwei City and said regretfully.

But it doesn't matter too much, Yangwei City will not be your shelter soon.

After Ma Teng stopped, the scout captain came up with two scouts.

Others still have to keep staring at Yangwei City. Although the "blocking battle" just now did not have much effect, the scout brigade also lost more than a dozen people. It is not enough to monitor Yangwei City with these people, and the scout captain can only take two less The person is around.

When Ma Teng saw the scout captain approaching, he didn't blame his actions for making Shunjun speed up, resulting in a gap in the final siege, allowing Gao Gang to escape.

It can only be said that Gao Gang's luck is good, and it's not time for him to die yet.

But not far away.

soon!

Ma Teng looked at Yangwei City with determination in his eyes.

But if you want to break through Yangwei City, the scout captain is the key.

"How about the investigation of Yangwei City?"

The scouts of the Divine Guard wandered around Yangwei City not only to see when the Shun army would leave the city, and when the Shun army on the city wall would change their guard.

They also have more important tasks, UU reading www.uukanshu.com to find the weakness of Yangwei City, and provide information for the army to break through Yangwei City.

Scout Captain: "General, we have found the weakest point in Yangwei City, we can start from this weak point when attacking the city."

The scout captain's answer surprised Ma Teng. He just asked out of habit. He didn't expect the guard scouts to move so fast this time!

Or is Yangwei City's weakness too obvious?

The weakness of a strong military city was discovered so quickly, Ma Teng even wondered if the Shun army cut corners when building the city!

Ma Teng asked curiously, "How did you find out?"

The scout captain knew why Ma Teng was surprised, and he couldn't believe it when he heard the news.

For a while, he wondered if Shunjun let them find out on purpose and set up a trap in the city?

It was only later that I realized it was a coincidence.

The scout captain explained how they discovered the weakness of Yangwei City, and Ma Teng finally understood why the scout team moved so fast.

A scout on a reconnaissance mission wanted to find a corner for convenience due to personal problems, but unexpectedly found traces of a secret passage at the base of the wall.

Although the secret passage has been abandoned and blocked, what do the guard scouts do?

One can see through the essence of the secret passage at a glance. Isn't the buried secret passage not a secret passage?

Innocent!

When the guards attacked the city, they could use coffins filled with gunpowder to blow up the city wall. This buried tunnel is the best place.

The Divine Guard is equipped with a new type of engineering shovel produced by Qianlongzhai, which greatly improves the digging speed.

Ma Teng was very excited when he heard the news, and wished he could take Yang Yuan over immediately.

He knew that the lord must be carrying a lot of gunpowder with him, as soon as the lord arrives, the day when the city of Yangwei will be destroyed is just around the corner!
