Even so, with Yang Rui's current 100 men, it seemed to be quite difficult for him to storm the current city.
"Fine! Fine! Fine … "
"…"
Yang Rui was about to use the Sky City to investigate the surrounding situation from the air before deciding on what to do. However, to his surprise, the sound of galloping horses suddenly came from the distance behind him, and he could faintly hear the sounds of fighting.
"Open the city gate! Open the city gate … "
"…"
The sounds of fighting soon became clear, and Yang Rui soon recognized the general situation. The people who came should belong to two different forces, one chasing the other, and the other fleeing. They were rushing toward the "Tongluo City" in front of Yang Rui.
Moreover, from the tone of the fleeing army in front, it seemed that they should belong to the same camp as the Loulan garrison in the city. As for the party chasing from behind, most of them should be cavalry, which could be seen from the dense sound of horse hooves.
When Yang Rui saw this, he immediately frowned. This was too much of a coincidence. Under the situation where both sides were charging at full force, it was already too late for Yang Rui and his hundred subordinates to dodge.
"Swoosh …"
Without much hesitation, Yang Rui had already released all the 50000 soldiers in the Sky City, as well as the generals Zhang Ning, Cheng Yu, Yu Jin, Han Dai, and Ding Yao.
If Yang Rui's men were dragged into a state of battle, it would be impossible to use the Sky City at that time. The Sky City could not be used in a state of battle.
Yang Rui's action was decisive. The moment the 50000 soldiers of the Formation Breaker filled the space between "Tongluo City" and the fleeing and pursuing army, the soldiers at the forefront had already collided with the enemy in front of them!
"Fine! Fine! Fine … "
"Hiss …"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"…"
The three sides fought together. Since they were all enemies, there was no need to pay attention to which side the other side belonged to.
Facing the situation in front of him, even if the soldiers of the [Capture Barracks] were extremely strong, with the assistance of Gao Shun, Cheng Yu, Zhang Ning, Yu Jin, Han Dai, Ding Yao and the other six generals, there would not be any major losses. As Yang Rui killed the enemy, he could not help but smile bitterly.
What the hell was this? Yang Rui himself had yet to figure out how to attack the city. Who would have thought that he would be embroiled in a three-way battle for no reason? It was simply a laborious and thankless task.
Speaking of which, Yang Rui had experienced a lot of battles, so he was quite alert to the surroundings of the battlefield. Yang Rui did not expect that he would be caught off guard this time. By the time he realized it, it was already too late for him to react.
In reality, it was because Yang Rui lacked battle experience in the Loulan region. Because of the large expanse of meadow, the distance of the sound made by the marching troops was naturally limited. This caused Yang Rui to be slow to react, leading to the chaotic battle in front of him.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the [Capture Barracks] were all exceptionally elite. They had the attribute of "Live and Die together". Adding on the unique skill of Gao Shun, Cheng Yu, Zhang Ning and the other generals, the [Capture Barracks] at this time could be said to be an iron army.
The two groups of people rushing towards [Tongluo City] numbered in the tens of thousands. Their momentum was also very great. But facing the iron bucket-like formation of Yang Rui's [Capture Barracks], the two groups of people were like a violent tide crashing into a reef. They were instantly stopped in their tracks.
The scattered troops in front should be the Loulan troops. At this time, Yang Rui's [Capture Barracks] had blocked off their path. Behind them, there were also fierce pursuers. The scattered troops of Loulan were already extremely passive and were rapidly being slaughtered.
Following the rapid collapse of the Loulan troops, the pursuers behind them were quickly revealed. Yang Rui could almost immediately recognize the culprits. Because the other party was actually the Xiongnu tribe that Yang Rui had interacted with before!
Previously, because his territory had been intentionally attacked by Ge of Gale and the other players, Yang Rui's punitive campaign against the Xiongnu was greatly restricted. Later on, he did not continue to effectively organize a punitive campaign against the Xiongnu. He did not expect to encounter them in Loulan.
From this, it could be seen that the Xiongnu's range of activity was very wide. Their tentacles had also extended to the land of Loulan. It was just that he did not know which branch the Xiongnu tribe in front of him belonged to.
The other party's identity as a Xiongnu tribe was also very suitable for Yang Rui's troops to go on a killing spree. Who knows, they might even be able to push forward the [Origin of the Xiongnu] mission.
Moreover, the appearance of the Xiongnu tribe was too inopportune. Yang Rui had originally chosen 100 people to participate in the second phase of the mission to reduce the complexity of the mission. He did not expect that the appearance of the Xiongnu troops would spoil Yang Rui's plan, forcing Yang Rui to directly pull out the entire [Capture Barracks].
Under such circumstances, after stabilizing the formation at the beginning, Yang Rui directly ordered his troops to charge out. During this period, he paid special attention to the areas where the Xiongnu troops were more concentrated. He even unintentionally created some opportunities for the scattered Loulan troops to escape.
Yang Rui did not bother with the Loulan troops who were lucky enough to escape from the two sides of the battle. As a result, these Loulan troops managed to keep their lives. With Yang Rui's 50000 [Capture Barracks] troops, he could completely wipe them out in one fell swoop.
The Xiongnu troops that were charging at Yang Rui's vanguard suffered a calamity. Although these Xiongnu troops were all cavalry and had a natural advantage over ordinary infantry, when faced with the [Capture Barracks], this advantage was completely lost.
"Kill!"
"Harrumph..."
"..."
The entire eastern gate of Tongluo City could be said to be filled with the cries of men and horses. The chaotic battle caused the sky to darken.
On the battlefield, there were a few areas where the fighting was particularly intense. One of them was where a Loulan general and his guards were, while the other was where Yang Rui's troops and the Xiongnu cavalry were clashing.
However, this chaotic battle ended just as quickly as it had begun. It did not last for too long, especially when the other two sides realized that Yang Rui's troops were practically unstoppable. They sped up the battle even more.
First, the Xiongnu troops turned around and fled. Because they were all cavalry, Yang Rui could not chase after them even if he wanted to.
The scattered Loulan troops did not put up a proper resistance from the start. Taking advantage of the small gap created by Yang Rui's slaughter, the soldiers who could escape naturally took the opportunity to flee to the two sides of the battle formation. They should have fled to the other gates of Tongluo City.
This included the Loulan general and his guards. Later on, they also planned to break out of the encirclement. However, from the start, they were too closely watched by the Xiongnu troops and thus fell into the center of the chaotic battle.
