Chapter 64: The Sword Is Not Old (Three Watches Arrive, Ask for Subscription)

After Li Mi retreated from the defeat of the Tiger Prison Pass, he quickly gathered the defeated army, regrouped, and gathered more than 100,000 troops, and stationed troops in Changle Town, thirty miles outside the Tiger Prison Pass. 56 Library's new website:

And Wang Shichong also led a heavy army to garrison the Tiger Pass, strictly defended it, and repelled more than a dozen attacks by Li Mi one after another, and the battle situation fell into a stalemate for a while.

In order to break this deadlock, Li Mi ordered Zhu Wen, a general stationed in Xuzhou, to bring troops to help, and Wang Shichong also sent a messenger to Jingxiang to find Yang Gao, asking him to quickly send troops to rescue Luoyang.

。。。。。。。。。。

In Yingchuan County, the 40,000 elite soldiers led by Chang Yuchun have already arrived in Yingchuan County to govern Changshe County, and the 20,000 Sui troops from the direction of Nanyang converged and surrounded Changshe County together.

The commander of the Sui army on the Nanyang side was Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao's father, and Yang Ye's implanted identity was the concubine of Yang Jian's cousin of Emperor Wen of Sui, who had been guarding Yanmen Pass for many years and fighting the Turks. During the Great Cause, he offended the powerful people of the dynasty and was removed from his official position.

However, Yang Ye was brave and loyal, and heard that Emperor Wu Yang Guang avoided trouble in Jiangdu, and specially sent his most proud son Yang Yanzhao and his best martial arts son Yang Yansi to Jiangdu.

Yang Yanzhao knew that his father's biggest dream in this life was to return to the battlefield, so this time he sent troops to the Central Plains to let Yang Gao write to recommend his father Yang Ye as the main general of the army.

Yang Ye had a total of four lieutenant generals on this trip, Lin Chong and Hao Siwen, who served as partial generals, and the other two were Yang Ye's sons Yang Yanping and Yang Yande, both of whom were carried out by Yang Ye.

After the two armies met, they immediately launched an attack on Changshe County.

Li Mi has mobilized 200,000 troops to attack Wagang, although Changshe County is the seat of Yingchuan County, but there are only less than 3,000 defenders, the guard general Gao Quan was originally a small cottage leader, he didn't know any art of war at all, and he had already panicked in the face of tens of thousands of Sui troops besieging the city, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

"Siege the city, the first to attack the city will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold!"

Chang Yuchun waved the command flag in his hand and ordered loudly.

Yang Ye, Lin Chong, Yang Yande, Hua Rong and other generals led the charge, and tens of thousands of troops rushed to the foot of the city wall like a fierce dragon crossing the river, with a shield on their heads and a ladder on their shoulders, shouting and roaring towards Changshe County to launch a stormy offensive.

"Bow and arrow suppression!"

Chang Yuchun gave an order, and tens of thousands of crossbowmen who were on standby under the city wall opened their bows and arrows and shot towards the city.

Whoosh ......

All of a sudden, arrows rained down like locusts from the sky, and the Wagang army on the city wall screamed bitterly, desperately trying to bow their heads and flee to avoid bows and arrows, how could they have any mind to stop the Sui army from attacking the city.

The Sui army besieging the city almost unhindered the city wall, and built one cloud ladder after another on the city wall, holding a shield on it, and bravely climbed up.

"Soldiers, at this time, kill with me!"

Yang Ye laughed wildly, holding a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, wearing a strong and stubborn one, taking the lead, and climbing up the ladder.

Chang Yuchun looked at it from behind and sighed, "General Yang is old and strong, and the sword is not old, and he is really a model for my generation." I should personally cheer for the old general! ”

As he spoke, Chang Yuchun jumped off the horse, snatched the drummer's hammer, and struck it fiercely towards the cowhide drum.

Inspired by Chang Yuchun's fierce drumbeat, Yang Ye roared, kicked his feet, and suddenly jumped onto the city wall.

"Those who know the times are Junjie, and traitors such as you still have to resist stubbornly?" The golden-backed broadsword in Yang Ye's hand slashed horizontally and vertically, slashing several defenders in succession, rushing through an open area, and shouting: "Those who put down their weapons and tie their hands and capture them will be spared death!" ”

"Old General Yang is nearly sixty years old and still so brave, how can I and other juniors fall behind him?"

Yang Ye's bravery greatly boosted the morale of the Sui army, and Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Yang Yande and others also climbed the city wall one after another.

Gao Quan, the commander of Changshe County, saw that the situation was not good and wanted to abandon the city and flee. Unexpectedly, he had already been targeted by Yang Ye, who was the first to enter the city, and was blocked by Yang Ye just a few steps away.

"Old horseman, dare to stand in my way, you are looking for death!"

Seeing that the way was blocked, Gao Quan was furious, shouted violently, and swung his sword in his hand like a mad bull, slashing towards Yang Ye.

Yang Ye snorted coldly disdainfully, and the golden-backed broadsword in his hand slashed out obliquely like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, colliding with Gao Quan's war knife.

Throat!

In the splash of sparks, Gao Quan snorted, staggered back a few steps, a surge of qi and blood in his chest, and his heart was horrified, "This old man is so old, and his martial arts are still so powerful, let alone me, even if Wang Bodang, Shan Xiongxin and others bump into it, they may not be able to win!" ”

Yang Ye saw the timidity in Gao Quan's heart, and was secretly overjoyed, the gold-backed broadsword in his hand slashed out, and the layers of knife shadows shrouded Gao Quan in it, Gao Quan was strong and energetic to swing the knife to block, and struggled to support, and it was already full of loopholes in less than ten rounds.

Yang Ye saw a flaw, slapped Gao Quan to the ground with a backhand, and shouted, "Come on, tie up this thief for me!" ”

The lord will be captured, and the Wagang army defending the city has no fighting spirit, but in a quarter of an hour, the entire Changshe County will be replaced with the battle flag of the Sui army, and the three thousand Wagang troops defending the city will be killed in seven or eight hundred people, and the rest will be captured.

Gao Quan is an old fritter, after being captured and taken to Chang Yuchun, without saying a word, he immediately knelt on the ground and begged to surrender: "This general, the villain followed Li Mi's rebellion completely because of the situation, but the villain has always been concerned about the court and has never thought of going against the court. Today's heavenly soldiers are here, and the villain is willing to surrender! ”

Chang Yuchun's eyes widened angrily, and he scolded and scolded: "Are you a fool to be a general like this villain?" If you really have no choice but to rebel, why did our army lead the army to resist when it came to the city, and now surrendering is clearly to save your own life. What is the use of unfaithful and unrighteous people like you, and where are they left and right, drag them out and cut them down! ”

Gao Quan's face was as frightened as earth, and he kowtowed again and again and said: "The general spares his life, the general spares his life!" ”

Yang Ye couldn't bear it, and said: "General Chang, this person has surrendered, I think it's better to spare his life, it's ominous to kill prisoners!" ”

Chang Yuchun shook his head when he heard this, and said categorically: "The old general's words are wrong, this thief sees the wind and makes a camel, and there is no loyalty at all. If he surrenders to our army today in order to save his life, he will betray our army for his own life one day. What's more, this thief is a city broken and surrendered, if this matter spreads, and all the counties in the Central Plains follow suit, then when will our army be able to take all the Central Plains? I have made up my mind, and the old general does not need to persuade me again! ”

Yang Ye saw that Chang Yuchun's mind had been decided, and there was indeed some truth in Chang Yuchun's words, so he stopped talking at the moment and slowly retreated into the queue.
