Loulan City could accommodate 30,000 to 40,000 people and was an important town on the Silk Road. Its city size was second to none in the Western Regions.

The city was built on the shore of Puchang, with the eastern gate overlooking a vast lake.

It is ten li long from north to south and eight li wide from east to west.

Therefore, there is a distance between the north and south gates.

It takes a considerable amount of time for soldiers to relay information between the two sides.

Meanwhile, in Loulan City, one after another, people fled in panic from the south.

Thick smoke billowed across the streets near the South Gate, filled with the sounds of battle and the cries of anguish.

More and more Xianbei soldiers have poured into the city, looting and killing everywhere.

Outside the South Gate, Xue Rengui led his Xuanjia cavalry in a merciless massacre of the Xianbei cavalry who were fleeing in all directions instead of entering the city.

The 1,800 Xuanjia cavalrymen's armor was always soaked with blood.

Of the 10,000 Xianbei cavalry, after losing 1,000 men in the past five or six days, 6,000 of the current 9,000 have entered the city.

The other three thousand men were all killed by Xue Rengui outside the city.

Xue Rengui obeyed Liu Wei's orders and knew when to stop.

If all of Yuchi Gu's men are killed, then there will be no one to wreak havoc on the western kingdoms of Qiemo and Ruoqiang, thus implementing Liu Wei's plan to drive away the wolves.

Seeing that there were no living people outside the city, and the ground was littered with corpses, Xue Rengui ordered the three squads of Xuanjia cavalry to assemble and prepare for a short rest.

However, on the shore of Puchang, the sound of horses' hooves echoed, and a large army appeared.

They were Anjiu and his five thousand cavalrymen who had retreated from the north gate and were preparing to enter the city through the south gate, following the Xianbei people.

"Soldiers, another one is alive!"

Xue Rengui laughed loudly, his eyes flashing with a cold light.

The Yuchi Xianbei army kept a portion of its troops to act as wolves, but Liu Wei of the Cheshi Kingdom did not say that he would leave any behind.

Since they didn't say it, it means they can be completely wiped out.

"You guys didn't get enough killing just now, did you? Now, let's wipe them all out, leave no one alive!"

The 1,800 Xuanjia cavalrymen roared and howled, their eyes behind their masks filled with bloodthirsty fervor.

Xue Rengui's attributes added a 10% combat power bonus to the already formidable Xuanjia Cavalry.

For those Yuchi Xianbei cavalrymen who had fallen outside the city, it was as easy as killing chickens and dogs.

The one-sided slaughter by the Xuanjia cavalry suddenly felt rather dull.

Now, another five thousand cavalrymen have arrived, and they are all excited again.

"Line up! Kill!"

The Xuanjia cavalry immediately split into three groups of six hundred men each, and like tigers spotting their prey, they charged towards the Cheshi army that had appeared.

What's going on?!

When they were less than a mile apart, Anjuya Ma was stunned!

Here, besides the corpses of the Xianbei people, were armored cavalrymen exuding an aura of death.

Damn it, they were heavily armored cavalry, both men and horses clad in armor.

We just escaped from the tiger's mouth, and now we've encountered a lion!

How could we possibly win?!

Anjiu hurriedly stopped his horse and tried to turn around.

However, countless arrows were already being shot at them.

The opponent not only pushed their warhorses to their maximum speed, but also steadily shot arrows from horseback!

A fierce general in white robes placed his halberd on his horse's back and took out a bow and arrow!

An arrow flew in and struck Anjiu squarely in the throat!

The unfortunate King Anjiu of Cheshi was killed by an arrow and went to the underworld to join his son, Prince Anxin.

With Anjiu's death, the cavalry of Cheshi Kingdom were thrown into chaos.

The three Xuanjia cavalry units, as fierce as tigers, surged into the cavalry ranks of the Cheshi Kingdom!

Corpses littered the fields, blood flowed like rivers, and even the waters of Puchanghai Lake were stained red.

......

at the same time.

In front of the Loulan King's residence, Wei Liao led more than twenty guards, preparing to gather the soldiers and head to the streets of the South Gate district to engage in street fighting.

An Ranweiji arrived in haste with more than a hundred accomplices.

"My good brother, how's the defense of the North Gate going? Are you here to fight alongside me?"

When Wei Liao saw An Ran Wei Ji arrive with his men, he was overjoyed.

With the help of people like An Ran and Wei Ji, holding one or two streets and waiting for the Han army's cavalry to enter the city should not be a problem.

The longer we hold out, the less Loulan will suffer.

However, An Ran Weiji seemed oblivious to Wei Liao's enthusiasm, and strode over with a gloomy face.

His accomplices followed closely, waiting for his order to act.

An Ranweiji was already certain that the North Gate would be easily captured with the help of his subordinates.

Anju's army also entered like a tidal wave.

If Anran Weiji could win over King Weiliao, then the entire city of Loulan would be up to them and the Xianbei to divide up.

Suddenly, An Ranweiji, who had walked up to the lieutenant, drew his sword and shouted, "Attack!"

His accomplices immediately rushed towards the guards behind the officer, raising their knives to slash and kill them.

Caught off guard, the more than twenty guards were quickly cut down and fell to the ground, their blood splattering everywhere.

"An Ran Wei Ji, what are you doing?"

The officer looked at An Ran and Wei Ji in disbelief and questioned them angrily.

"Lieutenant, hand over the king, and I'll spare your life!"

An Ranweiji placed the sword against the officer's neck.

"An Ran, Wei Ji, I treated you like a brother, how could you betray me!"

"You traitor! I was blind to trust you so completely, and even made you prime minister!"

Wei Liao never imagined that An Ran Wei Ji would betray him.

The brother who saved his life from bandits in the vast desert north of the Western Sea ten years ago has betrayed him and tried to seize his throne when Loulan is in crisis.

“Weiliao, King Anjiu of the Cheshi Kingdom, is my elder brother. My original name was Abe!”
