Chapter 72: The Decisive Battle with the Western Song Dynasty (I)
"The ghost weather in Buddha City, it rained heavily overnight yesterday, and it is so sunny today. Yuan Qin muttered dissatisfiedly, "Wanren, how do you say the people of Buddha City live?"
"Your Highness, the soldiers are a little in a bit of a mood today, otherwise they will set off again tomorrow. Wan Ren said to Yelan.
"Your Highness, Changle feels that what the two generals said is not unreasonable. Xiao Changle also agreed.
"Oh well. Yelan nodded, "Go and send a message to the master, and say that what he has prepared will be done tomorrow." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. Wan Ren said.
......
At the same time, Hu Yanchi of Zhongdu was loudly reprimanding the generals in the mansion of Zhongdu.
"All of them are waste, usually this king raises you, and you can't even kill a stinky boy who has not dried up, and he has also damaged several generals of this king. ”
"The king is angry, this Yelan martial arts is strong, and it is not so easy to kill as imagined. One of the generals explained in a whisper.
Hu Yanchi went up and gave him a kick, "you, Yelan is still a god." ”
"The king is angry. He quickly got up and saluted, "The minister has a clever plan." ”
"Tell me about it. Hu Yanchi glared at him.
"Today, the sun is in full bloom, and the minister heard that the Jiuchen Army is stationed in Focheng and has not yet set off..."Before he finished speaking, Hu Yanchi was furious, "Don't mention this to me, this king will be angry when he mentions this! Yelan, this turtle grandson, actually went to Focheng to ask those masters to boost morale, and now the morale of the Jiuchen Army is in full swing, if you call over, I see which of you can withstand it!"
The king was angry and listened to the ministers. Ye Su continued, "Even so, after all, the Nine Dust Army is from the south, and it has been here for so long, and it is somewhat unadaptable. The sun is so big today, they certainly don't want to go out of the city to fight with us. ”
"General Suxuan is right!" Wan Yanliang got up and interjected, "King, we can take advantage of today to unite with Murong Yongci to surround the Buddha City, take down the Nine Dust Army in one fell swoop, and annihilate them all." ”
"The walls of the Buddha City are in disrepair, very easy to attack, and the opportunity cannot be lost, and the time will not come again. He also said with a quick smile.
"Good idea. Hu Yanchi showed a treacherous smile, "It's also quick, this king ordered you to go out with this king, and when you are done, you will stay and defend the city." ”
"Don't be the king, Wan Yanliang also wants to go out with the king to attack the Nine Dust Army. Wan Yanliang was a little unhappy.
"This is a military order, and it must not be disobeyed. Hu Yanchi's tone was cold, there was no doubt, Wan Yanliang could only hum and chirp to receive the order.
After Huyan Chi and other generals led the army out of the city, Wan Yanliang took a group of generals to drink flower wine, he was not happy, and felt that the credit would be robbed by Ye Suxuan, so he didn't want to defend the city well.
"General, let's not defend the city well, run to eat and drink, in case the king knows about it, won't he punish us. One of the generals was worried.
"What are you afraid of!" Wan Yan Liang scolded him angrily, "Lao Tzu's grandfather is the Western Song Dynasty fierce general Wan Yan Yu, and he is the master of Huyan Zhenzong, Huyan Chi still has to respect my grandfather for three points when my grandfather is alive, what can he do to me?"
Seeing that Yan Liang was so confident, the generals couldn't say anything, so they could only drink with Wan Yan Liang.
......
"General, Hu Yanchi has just left with his army, and now only Yan Liang is left in the city to defend the city. Hai Shengyue's men reported to him.
"Okay!" Hai Shengyue was overjoyed, "immediately assemble the three armies and prepare to attack the city." ”
"Yes. ”
......
"General, general, it's not good!" a Western Song soldier ran over.
"Panic... Panic what. Wan Yanliang drank some wine, and his tongue was a little unsharp.
"General, the Nine Dust Army is coming!" the soldier panicked.
"What!" Wan Yanliang's wine immediately woke up, and his tongue became sharp. "Gather troops for defense!"
"I'm afraid it's too late. The soldier shook his head.
"General, the Jiuchen Army has broken through the city gate and killed in!" another soldier ran over.
After Yan Liang panicked like an ant on a hot pot, he hurriedly ran back to the mansion to change his armor, and fell on the way, and fell a dog gnawing mud.
Before arriving at the mansion, the Jiuchen Army had already been killed, and Hai Shengyue led the central army to be full of morale, like a lion cutting people when he saw them. Wan Yanliang hurriedly pulled out his sword and led the chaotic Western Song soldiers to meet the enemy, but the Western Song Dynasty soldiers were like a plate of loose sand, their formations were chaotic, trampling on each other, many Western Song Dynasty soldiers were even trampled to death, and some died under the swords of their companions in a panic.
Hai Shengyue laughed, took Yan Liang's head without much effort, and led the army to kill the Western Song Dynasty soldiers without leaving a piece of armor, and easily took the Zhongdu.
Here, not long after Hu Yanchi left, he was caught up by the soldiers to report that Zhongdu had been occupied, and he grabbed the soldier's collar in anger and asked angrily, "Where did that damn guy die in Wan Yanliang!"
"Will... The general is dead. The soldier stammered.
"Die!" Hu Yanchi stabbed the soldier to death with a sword, and was about to turn around and return to help.
He also quickly grabbed the reins of his horse, "The king can't!"
"What are you doing!" Hu Yanchi pulled out his sword and put it on Ye Suku's neck.
"King, if we go back now, we will be sent to death, that Hai Shengyue is recuperating in the city, let's hurry away, we will only fall into his ambush!"
"Now we can only take the Buddha City and Yelan to make up for the loss of Zhongdu!"
"Okay!" Hu Yanchi shouted, "The whole army obeys the order, rush to the Buddha City at full speed, and capture Yelan alive for me!"
"Yes!"
......
"Your Highness, it's not a good thing. Yuan Qin ran back and reported.
Say. Yelan said.
"The spies reported that Hu Yanchi led a large army towards us. Yuan Qin said as he wiped his sweat.
"Your Highness, General Hai has just sent a message from the flying pigeon, they have occupied the central capital, Huyanchi almost poured the country's troops to fight us, it seems that this is a tough battle, either we die, or the Western Song Dynasty dies. Wan Ren said.
"Now you just need to defend the Buddha City, wait for the reinforcements of Beixuan, and annihilate the Western Song Dynasty in one fell swoop. Yelan said ambitiously.
"But Your Highness, I don't know when the Beixuan Army will arrive, Huyanchi's side is already imminent, and our small Buddha City may not be able to resist for so long......" Wan Ren and Yuan Qin said worriedly.
"Changle, what do you think?" Yelan asked Xiao Changle instead.
"Your Highness, I think your decision is the most appropriate now, we can only defend to the death, this battle can only be gambling. Xiao Changle echoed.
"Your Highness, or can you let His Royal Highness the King of Qi lead the army to support. Yuan Qin said loudly.
"No, you can't. Yelan shook his head, "Yefan is our backing, if he comes to support and the rear is attacked by a sneak attack, we will have no time to take care of ourselves." ”
"Your Highness is right, His Royal Highness King Qi's army can't move, we can only wait for the Beixuan army. Xiao Changle said, "Now we can't waste time, we must quickly deploy to deal with the Huyanchi army and buy time for the arrival of the Northern Xuan army." ”
"What do you suggest?" Wan Ren asked.
"There are two gates in front and back of the Buddha City, and there is no exit other than that. Wanren, you lead the main army to guard the front gate, Yuan Qin leads a thousand men and horses to guard the back door, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are handed over to His Highness to support and respond. Xiao Changle said.
"But Miss, a thousand centaurs can't hold it. What if Hu Yanchi sees that the front door is not broken for a long time and changes his route to attack the back door?" Yuan Qin worried.
"I guess Changle meant deliberately, luring the enemy deep and fighting them in the streets. Yelan said.
"Your Highness is right. Xiao Changle smiled happily, "The worst thing for Western Song Dynasty soldiers is street fighting, and this is our strength. ”
"With such a layout, dare to ask how long Miss is sure it will last?" Wan Ren asked.
"It's no surprise that it can stand up to five pillars of incense. Xiao Changle pondered for a moment.
"Is there enough time?" Wan Ren looked at Yelan uncertainly.
"Enough. Yelan nodded, "The time of the Northern Xuan Army is estimated to have arrived. ”
"There's just one more problem. Xiao Changle said, "If Murong Yongci assists Huyanchi in attacking the city, then our plan will be a bit dangerous. ”
"Murong Yongci is not a fool, it is so profitable, he may not come. Yelan said.
"Murong Yongci, that guy has rebelled?" Wan Ren and Yuan Qin looked at each other.
"He never really surrendered. Yelan said.
"Don't be afraid. Wan Ren patted his chest, "With His Highness here, he will definitely win." ”
"You believe in me. Yelan smiled.
This is the first time in his life that he has made a bet, whether he wins or loses, it all depends on the destiny of heaven.
