Chapter 45: The Fall of Xiao Liang (Part II)

At dawn the next day, Yang Gao ordered the whole army to march to Changsha City.

On the long official road, the banner is like a cloud, the sword and halberd are erected like a forest, and the 100,000 Sui army stretches for several miles, and the mighty crowd of Zhao Wang Yang Gao to Changsha City to kill.

Woo~~Woo~~

In the continuous sound of horns, a group of Xiaoguo war horses surged forward from the wilderness, and when they were still a thousand steps away from Changsha City, they stopped their horses, and then slowly spread out to the two wings.

Boom Boom Boom !!

After the Xiaoguo Iron Cavalry spread out to the two wings, the tens of thousands of infantry behind them slowly moved forward with uniform steps, shouting hoarsely at the head of Changsha City: "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The voices of tens of thousands of people converged into a uniform shout, wave after wave, and the violent sound was like a stormy wave, reverberating and raging fiercely between heaven and earth, brutally rushing the will of Xiao Liang's soldiers to resist.

"The Sui army is here, the Sui army is here!"

The momentum exuded by the 100,000 Sui army was really terrifying, although most of the Liang troops still in the city at this moment were the elite of several battles, but they were still frightened and confused by the terrible coercion of the Sui army, and they shouted in panic.

"What's the panic, we have Changsha Jiancheng in hand, no matter how powerful the Sui army is, it won't be able to cut you!" Just when the Liang army at the head of the city was at a loss, Xu Xuanche led a group of guards to climb the city tower, and when he saw the appearance of the city head, he was furious and shouted: "Those who dare to disturb the morale of the army will be killed!" ”

was yelled at by Xu Xuanche, and the Liang army at the head of the city calmed down, and they picked up their bows and crossbows and aimed at the Sui army under the city.

"Stop!"

When there were still about 500 paces away from Changsha City, Xue Rengui, the commander of the Sui army, suddenly waved his big hand and shouted loudly for the whole army to stop advancing.

Rumble!

Xue Rengui gave an order, and tens of thousands of Sui troops immediately stopped their advance, the sword and shield men stood in front of the shield array, the pikemen behind them raised their spears, and the archers behind raised their bows and crossbows to aim at the head of Changsha City.

Xue Rengui stood in front of the battle, and shouted at the city: "Is it General Xu Xuanche Xu on the city? ”

"A certain family is Xu Xuanche, who are you?" Xu Xuanche said coldly at the head of the city.

Xue Rengui laughed and said: "Why is General Xu so forgetful, a certain Xue Li Xue Rengui is also, haven't we already met before?" ”

"We've met?" Xu Xuanche looked at Xue Rengui suspiciously.

Before Xu Xuanche could react, Xue Rengui had already laughed wildly: "Hahaha, it seems that General Xu is busy with affairs and has forgotten about Xue, but since Yuanjiang said goodbye, Xue has admired General Xu's resourcefulness!" ”

"Xue Rengui, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, you have the courage to come and attack the city, don't talk this nonsense!" Xu Xuanche became more and more confused when he listened, and yelled at Xue Rengui impatiently.

"What did General Xu say, how dare I attack the city with you General Xu at the head of the city?" Xue Rengui smiled strangely and shouted loudly at the city: "My Royal Highness admires General Xu's martial arts strategy very much, and he writes a letter to express his respect for you!" “

Then he tied the epistle to an arrow and shot it at the city. With a whoosh, the arrow struck the railing of the city like a meteor with precision and fierceness. The Liang army in the city pulled out the arrow for a long time.

Xu Xuanche took the arrow suspiciously, took down the letter tied to the arrow, and before he could open it, Xue Rengui under the city suddenly shouted: "General Xu, please entrust General Xu with the things that His Royal Highness entrusted in the letter!" After that, there was another burst of laughter, and he turned his horse's head and ordered in a deep voice: "Go back to the camp!" “

Xu Xuanche looked at the city with a blank face, and muttered to himself, "Xue Rengui, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?" After a long time, he turned his gaze back to the letter, and prepared to open it with a suspicious face.

"Liang Gong has arrived!"

Just as Xu Xuanche was about to open the envelope, he saw Xiao Mo walking up to the city wall with hundreds of guards with a gloomy face, Xu Xuanche hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The last general will see Liang Gong!" ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Mo responded coldly, and said lightly: "General Xu, I heard that you just had a good chat with Xue Rengui, the chief general of the Sui army, and gave you a letter. ”

As he spoke, his gaze had already moved to Xu Xuanche's hand, and he suddenly sneered, "It seems that this is the letter that Yang Gao'er sent you, so let's take a look at General Xu first!" “

After saying that, he snatched it from Xu Xuanche's hand, slowly opened the letter, just glanced at it lightly, his face became iron-blue, and he threw the letter in front of Xu Xuanche with resentment, and said through gritted teeth: "General Xu, Yang Gao is really a big hand, take off the head of the lone person and make you the general of the left and right mansions, and open the house with the three divisions, it seems that the head of the lone man is still quite valuable!" “

Xu Xuanche suddenly came to his senses, secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on the ground and said: "Liang Gong Mingjian, this is the Sui army's counter-strategy, the last general has never thought of turning his back on Liang Gong!" “

"Really?" Xiao Mo sneered, "In the battle of Yuanjiang that day, you led the team to evacuate alone for the sake of your own life, regardless of the life or death of the main general Zheng Wenxiu, so how can you be sure that today Gu will not take Gu's head in order to survive?" “

"Liang Gong!"

Hearing Xiao Miao's words, Xu Xuanche raised his head in shock and looked at Xiao Mi in disbelief.

In the past two months, Xu Xuanche has worked hard to stabilize the situation in Changsha, but he never expected that what he would get from such a sacrifice was Xiao Miao's ruthless suspicion.

At this moment, Xu Xuanche only felt that a cloud of anger was burning in his chest, he held his head high, and said loudly: "Since Liang Gong believes that the last general is not the last general, then simply behead the last general and show it to the public, so that Liang Gong must be at ease!" ”

"Do you think Lone won't dare kill you?" Xiao Mo was furious by Xu Xuanche's attitude, "Come on, drag him down and behead him for me!" ”

"Liang Gong is angry!" The general on the side, Wan Xun, hurriedly pleaded: "Duke Liang, since the Sui army besieged the city, General Xu has worked hard to stabilize the situation in the city, how can he fornicate with the Sui army, and I hope that Duke Liang will think twice!" ”

"I hope Liang Gong thinks twice!"

Under the leadership of Wan Zhan, the Liang generals at the head of the city knelt down and pleaded for mercy.

Seeing that all the generals under his command were interceding for Xu Xuanche, Xiao Miao's face changed again and again, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "Okay, for the sake of the generals, Lone will pardon Xu Xuanche's capital crime, but the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, come on, drag me down with a cane and punish me for thirty years, and expel me from the barracks!" ”
