35 This war
Bai Xiang's troops were much more than Bai Huang's, the 30,000 left guards he took with him when he was the general of the exile, the 20,000 Yuyang garrisons transferred from Yuyang, and the 80,000 northern border troops brought back from the north, a total of 120,000.
In terms of the comparison of troops, Bai Huang is at a disadvantage, and now there is a fire in the backyard, and he is being smashed by Huanglong, Bai Huang is in a difficult situation, not counting Bai Ti's men and horses who may have been secretly ambushed.
Everyone is waiting for Bai Huang's reaction, return to help or admit defeat?
There was a storm brewing in Bai Huang's eyes, and a smile became more and more gentle on his handsome face, and those who knew him well should know that what was going to happen next would not be too harmonious.
"Uhhh
“……”
With a thud, the headless body of the forbidden army fell to the ground, and his head flew far away, rolling into the battlefield on the city wall, and in a short time, he was trampled to pieces.
Bai Huang held the long sword in his hand, the tip of the sword hung down the ground, and drop by drop of blood dripped to the ground along the blade, the smile on his face had not yet dissipated, and he became more and more gentle and kind, "This person falsely spread the news, disturbed the morale of the army, and should be punished." ”
No one spoke, no one moved, as if they had been hit by the legendary immobilization technique, and they were stunned.
Zhuang Hua's original face was expressionless, but now he was completely petrified.
Bai Huang actually abandoned the palace and ignored the danger!!
No one expected that Bai Huang was stunned and chose the third way from the situation of choosing one of the two.
Bai Huang put away the sword, and with a smack, it was like a fixation technique to unravel a spell, but the situation of the head and ear to ear was completely gone, and they all hung their heads and poked there like wooden stakes, and several respected old ministers were also solemn, and their eyes made a slight contact, and they were silent, as if they hadn't seen anything, and they were still as immobile as a mountain of self-contained arrays, paying attention to the fierce battle situation in front of them.
Bai Yue pulled away Zhuang Hua's hand that was covering her eyes just now, and looked at the headless corpse, her little face turned pale, and she squatted on the ground and spit it out, tears and snot flowing.
Now, the attention of all the ministers has been drawn.
Zhuang Hua hurriedly squatted down, patted Bai Yue's back, and helped her calm down one by one.
Zhuang Hua regretted in his heart, he shouldn't have brought Bai Yue, he shouldn't have let her see such a bloody side of the world, maybe this would leave a psychological shadow on Bai Yue and affect her for the rest of her life.
Bai Yue vomited so much that she couldn't spit it out, retched a few times, tears flowed badly, and she cried uncomfortably, and threw herself into Zhuang Hua's arms, crying loudly.
Zhuang Hua hugged Bai Yue, frowned slightly and said to Bai Huang, "Your Highness, I want to go back to the city tower to stay for a while." ”
Bai Huang nodded and agreed: "Let's go to the mountain court." ”
Zhuang Hua confessed to everyone, hugged Bai Yue, who was still crying, and returned to the city tower under the escort of more than a dozen forbidden soldiers.
Bai Yue has been holding Zhuang Hua's neck and burying her head in her neck, Zhuang Hua couldn't let go of her at all, so he had to sit cross-legged on the couch with Bai Yue in his arms, and let Bai Yue sit on her lap.
Rather for the peace dog, the end for the troubled world.
Zhuang Hua sighed and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”
Bai Yue's crying gradually stopped, choked and looked up at Zhuang Hua's side face, and then buried her head in Zhuang Hua's shoulder and neck again.
"I shouldn't have brought you, it's all my fault." Zhuang Hua felt more and more guilty, but he didn't know what to say.
She will not do two things, explain the misunderstanding and apologize. So like the kind of "you listen to my explanation!" in the Tianlei Dog Blood Romance Drama! "I don't listen, I don't listen! "Listen to me!! "I just don't listen!! "This kind of thing will never happen in Zhuang Hua's life.
Tang Qi said that talking to an emotional person is equivalent to playing the piano to a cow, so Zhuang Hua will write a letter to the other party, and it is a regular mail (⊙_⊙), and when the other party sees the letter, his mood must have calmed down, so everything is much simpler.
It's been a long time since I've been in a hurry to apologize like this.
In this way, there was silence for a long time, the sound of fighting outside the door became louder and closer, Bai Yue finally stopped choking, raised her head and said to Zhuang Hua, "It's not your fault, Brother Shan." ”
Bai Yue's expression was very serious and serious: "The person was not killed by Brother Shan, it was killed by Brother Prince." ”
Zhuang Hua didn't know how to explain the complications, so he had to stroke Fu Baiyue's hair, "Duke Xie forgives." ”
Suddenly, the forbidden army guarding outside the door broke into the door and hurriedly said: "My lord, quickly follow the city wall under your subordinates!" ”
Zhuang Hua nodded, picked up Bai Yue and walked out of the city tower, surrounded and protected by more than a dozen forbidden soldiers, and walked towards the stairs of the city wall.
There were already many enemy troops rushing up the city wall, and the defenders were also rushing up in waves.
Zhuang Hua hugged Bai Yue, who was buried in her shoulders and neck, and gradually approached the direction of Bai Huang and the retreat of the ministers, she only felt that every step was as if she had stepped into a pool of blood, and the sound of fighting on the battlefield could not cover this small sound at all.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The sound of the siege trees hitting the city gate also reached the ears of the people on the city wall, and I don't know who shouted: "The city gate is about to be opened!" ”
After a while, people were shouting everywhere on the battlefield, "The city gate is open!" ”
The morale of the defending side was obviously weak, and the besieging army became more and more courageous.
Suddenly, there was a loud cheer from under the city walls, and at the same time there was a loud roar.
"City Gate ......" Zhuang Hua stopped and muttered to himself.
Almost at the same time, everyone on the city wall also stopped.
A cold gust of early spring wind blew, slightly blowing away the overflowing smell of blood.
The defenders and besieging troops under the city gate fought at the city gate, the people on the city walls recovered, and the cold wind danced as if to cheer up the war.
Zhuang Hua, who had already joined Bai Huang, watched Bai Huang draw his sword again, and shouted: "Fight!" ”
The forbidden army raised their swords one after another, "Fight!" ”
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
At this moment, the morale of the defenders on the city wall was raised again. The crown prince has fought in person, and they still have nothing to do.
For a time, the war reached a fever pitch.
After all, the defenders were not as outnumbered as the besieging troops, and they were defeated and retreated step by step.
Just when the defenders of the city were about to be unable to hold on, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the city, and thousands of troops arrived at the city gate in a short time, blocking the decline of the defenders.
"Reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming! The defenders cheered and exerted their strength in unison, and even forced the besieging army back again.
The verbena pole in Bai Xiang's hand was pinched off in his hand with a "click", and he said angrily: "Where did he get reinforcements?!" ”
Xu He, a newly promoted staff member beside him, said: "It should be transferred from other city gate guards." ”
Bai Xiang's face became more and more gloomy, and Xu He said again when he saw this: "The other city gate defenders have been transferred, and the troops are empty, and our army will definitely take a city gate." ”
Bai Xiang's face was a little better, and he asked, "In your opinion, which side was broken first?" ”
"West." Xu He said without hesitation.
Bai Xiangqi said: "What is the explanation? ”
In the distance, a scout galloped quickly, flew and dismounted in front of Bai Xiang, and said happily: "Lord Wang, our army has broken through the West City Gate and is marching into the city!" ”
Bai Xiang immediately laughed and said, "Okay, good! Summons the order to collect the troops and go to the West City Gate! ”
The defenders also wondered why the siege army suddenly withdrew its troops, and suddenly a fast horse ran over with a bloody forbidden army.
The forbidden army on the horse could not support it and fell off the horse, and the horse felt that the master was gone, and gradually stopped.
An adjutant ran over to listen to what the Praetorian had to say, and then crouched down and knelt there, motionless.
All the defenders had a bad feeling in their hearts.
Suddenly, the lieutenant got up and walked over to Bai Huang, and fell to his knees with a thud.
"Your Highness, the West City Gate...... It was breached. ”
Bai Xiang led the troops to the west city gate, looking at the broken city gate that was open to him, and he was in a happy mood, "Enter the city!" ”
At the sound of the order, an army of 20,000 men remained.
Just when Bai Xiang's Chinese army just entered the city gate, the arrow team suddenly appeared in all directions, and the sun shone on the arrows reflecting the cold light, as if the sky and the earth were netting, surrounding Bai Xiang's army.
The front army is in the city, the rear army of the Chinese army is outside the city, and the ambush soldiers cannot see the edge at a glance.
Bai Xiang was just about to give the order to fight back, but his neck was cold, and a dagger was pressed tightly against his neck.
Xu He, who was on the side, said respectfully as before: "Lord Wang, please order the whole army to abandon their weapons and surrender." It's just that the dagger in his hand against Bai Xiang's neck has not relaxed at all, the sharp blade has even cut through the skin, and a little blood flows down the curve of his neck into the collar.
"You spy!" Bai Xiang was furious, but further let the dagger cut the skin on his neck again.
"Lord Wang, please give an order." Xu He was unmoved and repeated.
The guards next to him were ready to move, wanting to rescue Bai Xiang, but they couldn't find the opportunity.
Seeing that the blade of the dagger was getting tighter and tighter into his skin, Bai Xiang finally said in a low voice: "The whole army ...... Surrender. ”
Under this order, from the Chinese army to the front and rear, a full moment, all the soldiers threw away their weapons, the surrounding arrow team retreated, and the foot soldiers stepped forward to escort the surrendered Baixiang men and horses separately, and in less than an hour, 20,000 surrendered soldiers were escorted away.
Bai Xiang is still being held hostage by Xu He, and Bai Xiang's guards are still surrounding Bai Xiang and Xu He, confronting each other.
At this time, a group of people came out of the city, like a black torrent, rushing towards the city gate.
"Red Horseman." Bai Xiang gritted his teeth and said these three words.
Chi Xiao rode under the city gate, the cavalry in front of him separated, and Bai Ti rode out in the middle.
"Boti!" Bai Xiang's eyes were about to split, and he wanted to step forward immediately.
Xu and a hand knife stunted him, lifting him from the horse to himself and immediately putting him in front of him. Before the guards next to him could react, they were controlled by another team of red horsemen who came out of the station at some point behind him.
Xu He jumped off the horse and said to Bai Ti: "Lord Wang, I am left to you, I want to go and sleep well." ”
Bai Ti rarely teased: "You are actually sleepy, this king still thinks you are an immortal." ”
Xu He spread his hands helplessly, "The gods can't stand staying by the side of fools every day." ”
Bai Ti smiled: "Okay, if you want to sleep first, let's go to Zhangliang Wangfu to sleep." After speaking, he ordered someone to find a carriage and send Xu He to Shaoguang's Zhangliang Palace.
After Xu He left, Bai Ti turned his horse's head and headed towards the palace.
It's all over. Bai Ti clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of ice and snow.
