Chapter 15 The snow is white, and the black clouds are overwhelming
The sky is full of snow, and black clouds weigh down the city.
The snow fell from heaven and earth like stars scattered in the mortal dust.
There are not a few beautiful scenes in the world.
It's just that the heaven of creation has created such beautiful scenes, and more living beings must be used to fill the energy expended in its creation.
Therefore, there is no beauty in this world that is not stained red by blood.
I don't know that the living beings in the world have passed away, and the scenery of heaven and earth is extremely beautiful, who should be left to appreciate, and who should be left to sing the wind and make the moon?
Yanmen Pass on Yanmen Mountain.
The gate of the wild goose is closed, and the wild goose is returned.
Zhang Tong sat upright on the Yanmen Gate as always, and the seat covered by tiger skin could make him feel warm.
He looked to the north, the meadow strewn with snowflakes everywhere, and watched quietly.
Doing so has become a habit for him, and in autumn and winter, he will warm a pot of hot soup, put on fur and shoulders, and wait for the Xianbei people to sweep the edges.
Although they came to run in the same form every time, the Xianbei people seemed to be helping the imperial court to check whether the guards of Yanmen Pass were lax.
I often come to take a walk, and I don't bring many people, just to visit the guards of Yanmen Pass.
"Brother, are you there?"
"Yes."
"Okay, brother, I'm leaving."
"Eat me with an arrow!"
It is this harmonious environment of mutual greetings that has allowed Yanmen Pass to not experience too much trauma.
But there seems to be a lot of snow early this year, which made Zhang Tong realize a problem.
The Xianbei dogs on the grassland have no room to survive, right?
Maybe they'll come to the state.
Zhang Tong was mentally prepared.
But when he saw the white in his eyes, little by little eroded by black, he still understood the seriousness of the problem.
Black clouds are crushing the city, and the city is about to be destroyed!
"Assemble the army!"
Zhang Tong suddenly stood up from his seat, and the fur shoulders on his body were scattered on the ground, revealing the armor that had just been covered in heat.
"Prepare for war!"
With a roar from the depths of his throat, Zhang Tong saw that the black had swallowed up most of the original white beauty.
This wave of people is definitely not the thousands of people who fought a little before.
Definitely more than 30,000 people!
Even...... Zhang Tong looked at the endless black wave in the distance.
Probably hundreds of thousands!
"Fourteen!"
Zhang Tong suddenly remembered something, shouted behind him, and a nimble pawn rushed out.
"In!"
"Immediately go to Yanmen County to report, and go to Taiyuan County, Shangdang County, and Hanoi County for help!"
"And ...... If you meet the young master, don't let him come back......"
Zhang Tong remembered his nephew who ran to Taiyuan, and Zhang Liao became a general in Taiyuan, and Zhang Tong was still pleased.
Although he didn't know very well how his Qilin nephew encountered this kind of opportunity, he was able to ascend to the general position at a young age, but Zhang Tong didn't want to dwell on the problems.
He was simply happy about Zhang Liao's success.
Maybe the tradition of the Zhang family fighting on the border for generations will end here in Zhang Liao, and it can be regarded as the end of the cause and effect of so many years with foreign people.
He knew that he might die in battle today, but Zhang Liaotian flew high, so he got his wish.
In fact.
The 800 Yanmen Pass defenders, facing hundreds of thousands of troops, in fact, even if they turn around and run, no one will say that they are incompetent.
But behind them 800 people is Yanmen County.
The Yanmen Gate is closed, the passage is flat, and it goes straight into Dai County.
As soon as the county was broken, the state was directly into the hinterland, and there was no danger to defend.
Can they run?
Zhang Tong's big knife shook the ground, telling the soldiers that they couldn't escape.
Only the border troops who died in battle.
There are no runaway earth dogs.
If they can't even keep their home, then they can only be stray dogs in the big man!
"Fight!"
Zhang Tong raised his sword and hissed, and the 800 sergeants of Yanmen Pass shouted thunderously.
"Poof!"
The aura of heaven and earth fluctuated, and Zhang Tong's head showed his job card, which quickly merged with the city wall of Yanmen Pass, and the job cards shown by the soldiers on the city wall were also shrouded in a green light.
After the Yanmen Pass, several fast horses quickly left the Yanmen Pass, and with their identity documents, they ran towards the south and asked for help everywhere.
The Xianbei army had gradually pressed close to Yanmen Mountain, and He Ruogu was wearing a woolly grass cloak, squinting at the small and steep checkpoint.
Wrapped in soft armor, she rode a white horse, and she carried a delicate longbow on her back, which her brother had given her before.
"You're going straight to Dai County today, right?"
Iza picked up her bow and looked at the wall of Yanmen Pass, she saw the beacon fire on Yanmen Pass, and also saw the soldiers on Yanmen Gate.
"Yes, occupy the city as soon as possible, and then take protective measures to prevent Taiyuan and Youzhou from attacking."
He Ruogu gasped.
In fact, he didn't expect that he would be able to collect so many disaster-stricken tribes along the way, but fortunately, there were still the most people in the Heruo tribe all along, and he was able to hold the position of the leader of this tribal alliance.
There are hundreds of thousands of people in their hands, and nearly 100,000 warriors.
It was the first time that He Ruogu felt that his power was so strong, and of course, the result of the condensation of this force was almost the result of He Ruogu, a large tribe on the grassland, who had annexed most of the small and medium-sized tribes near Heyou.
Therefore, he knew that Youzhou was not troubled by large-scale invasion this year, and General Baima might rush to the aid of the state.
He must take and state north as soon as possible.
"Go straight ahead, all tribes must send people."
He Ruogu gave an order, and there was no cumbersome opening ceremony.
Nearly 10,000 Xianbei warriors went up the mountain along the mountain of Yanmen Mountain, the rangers gathered and walked from the mountain road, and the warriors who fought on foot stepped on the mountain stones from both sides.
There is no politeness, go straight to war.
The battle for survival and the war of the race have always been like this, there is no morality, no etiquette, because what you fight is fate!
"Shoot the arrows!"
Zhang informed that the final result of this battle was either their death at Yanmen Pass, or the retreat of Xianbei.
But looking at this formation, the latter is unlikely, after all, you will stab you when you come up.
Then it can only be the former......
Holding a longbow in hand, Zhang Tong led the soldiers to shoot at the Xianbei dogs who went up the mountain first.
For the border army, bows and arrows, long knives, spears, swords and shields, those are all talents, and they can do everything.
There are too many Xianbei people going up the mountain, even if they are not good at archery, they can shoot blindfolded.
But what kind of damage can more than 800 people inflict on a large army of more than 10,000 people?
What's more, this is just the vanguard of the Xianbei people.
But what else?
After only three rounds of shooting, the first Xianbei person had already arrived in front of Yanmen Pass.
The Xianbei people brought siege equipment, which was a ladder made of wood, saying that it was a ladder, maybe the one who built the ladder would be ugly.
"Change the knife!"
Zhang Tong shouted, threw the longbow behind him, and grabbed his big knife.
More than 800 defenders firmly clutched the swords in their hands, waiting to give a knife to the Xianbei people who took the lead.
The ladder cannot be pushed, and instead of exerting his strength to push the ladder, Zhang Tong prefers to let the soldiers cut the ladder.
Just cut off those joint points.
However, He Ruogu came this time, and he was well prepared.
As far as the ladder he prepared, it was enough for Zhang Tong to cut his hands numb.
What is desperate is that the generals of the Xianbei advance army have not yet opened their job cards.
"Poof!"
The Xianbei warriors who began to engage with the sabers of the Yanmen Pass guards, there was a glimmer of light on their bodies, which was the effect of the military formation's shared bonus.
The snow is white, the black clouds are pressing the city, who knows the border guards in Yanmen?
