Zhou Cang and He Man were both fierce infantry warriors.
Especially He Man, who was extremely proficient in infantry combat. His movement technique and footwork could be unleashed to the extreme in a combat.
Therefore, even though Zhou Cheng asked He Man to practice riding, He Man still liked to practice horse stance.
At this moment, He Man had already seized an iron spear and was using it to sweep through a group of soldiers.
The soldiers of Ye City were all county soldiers. They had not been trained for long and did not have much actual combat experience.
Other than that, the local soldiers were even more vulnerable.
Although He Man and Zhou Cang had only brought a hundred elites, they had been drawn from the Tiger Troop Battalion, so their strength was extraordinary.
The more people He Man and the others killed, the more chaotic the city gate became.
Zhou Cang took advantage of the situation to drive an ox cart to the city gate. He let the ox run away and cut off the axis, causing the things on the cart to scatter on the ground. The main point of seizing the city was not to completely occupy the city gate, but to create trouble for the garrison so that they could not close the city gate.
During the Yellow Turban Uprising, they had swept through seven states and twenty-eight counties, attacking cities and raiding strongholds. Zhou Cang and the others had also accumulated a wealth of experience.
At this moment, a large number of vehicles had been driven to the city gate, and a large number of goods were scattered on the ground.
Even if the soldiers were wiped out or He Man and the others were repelled, it was impossible to clear the obstacles at the city gate in a short period of time and successfully close the city gate.
Wang Kuang wore a set of traditional armor and held an iron spear in his hand. He swung the spear and came to fight Zhou Cang.
However, in less than three rounds, he was stabbed in the heart by Zhou Cang and died on the ground.
Wang Kao had already received the news. At this moment, he was watching the battle on the north gate tower. He just didn't know how the battle was going inside the city gate.
When he saw the chaos at the north gate, with clothes, bedding, and pots scattered all over the ground, Wang Kao panicked.
"Bowen, what should we do now?”
In a moment of desperation, Wang Kao hurriedly asked Li Yan for help.
Li Yan was resourceful and quick-witted. Moreover, he was straightforward and decisive. At this moment, he suggested to Wang Kao,"Ming Gong, don't panic. There aren't many moth bandits. We just need to send a group of elite soldiers with bows and crossbows to eliminate them. At the same time, chase away the people who haven't entered the city to prevent the moth bandits from mixing in.”
"Lord Provincial Governor!"
"Lord Provincial Governor!"
However, just as Li Yan finished speaking, a hurried shout came from below the city tower.
A captain ran to Wang Kao in a panic. He didn't bother to wipe the blood and sweat off his face and said,"Lord Provincial Governor, Commandant Wang died in battle!”
Wang Kuang was Wang Kao's nephew, and he was the one with the highest martial arts skills among his sons and nephews.
However, unexpectedly, Wang Kuang was actually killed?
Hearing that his nephew had been killed, Wang Kao almost fainted.
Li Yan hurriedly said,"Ming Gong, quickly send troops!"”
"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Kao hurriedly said to the person beside him,"Ask Lieutenant Wu Feng of the South City to quickly lead troops to reinforce us!”
The sudden attack of the moth bandits at the north gate was indeed unexpected.
Logically speaking, they should be attacking the south gate. However, they attacked from the north gate.
Meanwhile, Wang Kao had placed a large number of troops on the southern wall, including 3000 archers.
However, before Wu Feng could come to reinforce them, the army on the southern city tower saw the cavalry of the moth bandits.
The leader was Zhou Cheng, and his eight hundred Daybreak Cavalry followed closely behind.
Like Zhou Cheng, the Daybreak Cavalry each held a round shield. From their looks, they were clearly prepared to forcefully charge into the city through the rain of arrows.
At this moment, Zhou Cheng led the Daybreak Cavalry around the city wall and arrived at the northern city wall.
The northern wall was still under the control of He Man, Zhou Cang, and the others.
However, a large number of archers were shooting at them.
Zhou Cang and the others were pressed down by the arrows and did not dare to raise their heads. They could only hide behind the vehicles.
"Follow me to defeat the enemy!"
Zhou Cheng took the lead and charged into the city. He held a shield in his left hand and fearlessly charged at the archers of Ye City.
These hundreds of archers only shot out a few arrows before Zhou Cheng charged in front of them.
"I am Zhou Cheng, who dares to fight!"
Although Zhou Cheng's shoulder and arm were shot by arrows, he still shouted as he pierced through the iron spear.
His voice was like thunder, scaring the surrounding soldiers away.
Following that, he pierced another soldier's neck with his spear. Then, he waved his ape arm and threw the archer on the spear away. As if he was playing Bowling, the corpse fell again.
The Daybreak Cavalry were also killing to their heart's content. In just a short while, nearly 500 archers were dead or injured.
Wang Kao and the others looked down from the city gate tower with trepidation. They saw that Zhou Cheng was unstoppable. Wherever he passed, he was not a match for him.
The iron spear either swept across the area, or stabbed out rapidly, stabbing into the necks of several people in a row. It also hacked down forcefully, splitting the shields of the soldiers into two. It also whipped the horse lightly, picking up a person on the tip of the spear like a skewer of meat.
Li Yan looked at Zhou Cheng, who had been shot several times but was still killing crazily as if nothing had happened. He could not help but mutter to himself,"The bravery of a rebel general is rare in the world.”
"Bowen!" Wang Kao was a little angry.
Is this the time to praise the Moth Thief?
Of course, the most infuriating ones were the North City soldiers. They clearly had the geographical advantage, and their troops were several times more powerful than the moth bandits. However, they were killed by the moth bandits and fled in all directions. They did not dare to fight the moth bandits head-on!
