Volume 1 The Breaking of Mountains and Rivers in Chapter 30 Breaking the Barrier

These days, Fang Hengxin sent out hundreds of scouts to inquire about the situation of the besieging Rong people, and the number of soldiers reported was about 50,000.

This morning, he had already disabled a team of 10,000 people, and now there were about 30,000 Rong people in front of him.

So is it that the last 10,000 Rong people who should have stayed behind are attacking the east gate or the south gate?

Obviously, he didn't think that the Rong people would do this, and for more than 500 years, the living environment of the Rong people was extremely bad, so that after so many years of dealing with the Qin people, they were still in a state of drinking blood.

Perhaps this is an exaggeration, but judging from the weapons they hold and the hides they wear, it seems that they are not much different from Ru Mao drinking blood.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for the Rong people to attack the city, if it is a low city wall like Yuxiao Pass, it is just a fortified city like Xiao Pass, if the Rong people do not have several times the number of defenders, they will resolutely not climb the city to attack and send them to death.

What's more, the Rong people should also beware of the Qin soldiers copying their own back roads and snatching or burning the already small grain and grass.

So what's going on with the shouts of killing in the city?

At this time, there were already soldiers in the city running to report to Fang Mingxin: "Deputy General Fang, General Yong has an order, the Rong soldiers have broken through the east gate, please quickly transfer the soldiers into the pass to resist the Rong soldiers." ”

"How did the Rong people break through the East Gate? How many Rong people have invaded? Where is General Yong? Why didn't the Rong people report it when they attacked the city? ”

Fang Mingxin threw all the questions in his heart to the herald soldier in one breath, but the soldier didn't know anything, just said "Atonement." ”

Fang Mingxin was already in turmoil at this time, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers under his command to quickly retreat to Xiaoguan City.

At this moment, the Rong people in front of their battle formation seemed to know what was going on, and when they heard the shouts of killing in the city, the whole army ignored it, and killed Fang Mingxin's army as if they were killed or wounded.

Fifteen thousand people wanted to retreat into the small city gates, and how could they do it in a moment.

Seeing that the Rong cavalry in front of the formation was about to be killed, Fang Mingxin stomped his feet and ordered the Xuanjia cavalry to quickly assemble a team and mount their horses.

But at this moment, the Xuanjia cavalry had no room to speed up, so they could only let them go around behind the Rong cavalry to attack the infantry who rushed up.

And the cavalry was handed over to the archers and Changge soldiers to deal with.

The Qin soldiers were indeed warriors of a hundred battles, although they were not the Fang family's descendant troops in the morning, but the Qin soldiers at this moment were also the cavalry that was fearless to meet the Rong people.

After three rounds of arrows, the archers hurriedly retreated behind the moat, leaving behind a large number of corpses of the Rong cavalry.

But unlike in the morning, the cavalry was too large, more than twice as large as in the morning. Although there were heavy casualties under the arrow array, under the absolute numerical superiority, the root was not harmed.

The most important thing is that the Rong cavalry is obviously determined to die, and the most obvious proof is that the cavalry in the front row tied the eyes of the war horses and rushed straight to the Qin Changge army formation.

The moment the two armies met, the sound of people shouting and neighing resounded in the sky.

Although he saw from a distance that the Xuanjia Cavalry had also rushed into the ranks of the Rong people, Fang Mingxin did not have the slightest joy, because the position in front of the moat made him stunned and extremely shocked.

I saw that after the Rong cavalry rushed into the military formation, although the men and horses were full of Changge, these two corpses would also rush to a large number of Qin soldiers around them by virtue of their inertia, and cavalry like this continued to rush into their own military formation one after another.

"What kind of tactics is this, is this still a Rong person?" Fang Mingxin was very shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but say to himself.

After nearly a month of fighting with the Rong people, although the two sides won and lost each other, until this morning, Fang Mingxin still maintained the belief that he would win, but at this moment he suddenly felt that maybe he was about to taste defeat today.

Looking up at the Xuanjia cavalry in the distance, after rushing in and out of the Rongren infantry array several times, it gradually lost its speed, and the cavalry that lost its speed became infantry targets, and gradually, the Xuanjia cavalry also suffered casualties.

In addition to the soldiers who were left to fight with the Xuanjia cavalry, the rest of the soldiers still rushed towards their own Chinese army at full speed.

A thousand steps away at the beginning of the war, now only a few steps away.

Fang Mingxin hurriedly ordered the Xuanjia cavalry to withdraw at full speed, and the infantry seemed to be unable to leave the battlefield, except, of course, those five thousand archers who retreated outside the moat.

Fang Mingxin has been fighting horses all his life, of course, he knows the pros and cons of trade-offs, and after gritting his teeth, he ordered the archers to enter the city quickly, while the cavalry went north to enter the city from the north gate.

At this moment, he just wanted to let the soldiers who could enter the city enter the city as soon as possible, and then let the infantry in front of the battle retreat, as for how much he could retreat, he was not the slightest sure.

The original plan to lure the enemy to the city could not be implemented because of the shouts of killing in the pass.

After the order was given, Fang Mingxin suddenly felt a little tired.

This is a strange battle that he has never encountered, obviously he has the upper hand, but because of the chaotic punches of the Rong people, he is embarrassed.

And more importantly, the Rong people's lifeless tactics came from the abnormality in Xiaoguan City, and this abnormality was the root of Fang Mingxin's tiredness.

Although he thought so, as the main general, he was concerned about the safety of the whole army, and he was also concerned about the safety of Yongyunqi, so after a while, he forced himself to cheer up, and after watching the archers enter the city one after another, and after the Xuanjia cavalry left the battlefield, he turned his horse's head and ran towards Xiaoguan City.

The infantry outside the city no longer had the will to fight after receiving Fang Mingxin's military order to retreat, and they all turned around and ran towards Xiaoguan, and a desperate struggle turned into a rout.

After 15,000 men went out of the city to meet twice the enemy's army, and after killing nearly 10,000 soldiers in about two hours, the Qin side lost less than 4,000 infantry and less than 1,000 cavalry.

However, what was supposed to be a great victory ended in the final defeat of the Qin soldiers, and the reason for this result was nothing more than the changes that occurred in the city.

Fang Mingxin entered Xiao Guan, and he heard the sound of shouting and killing in the east direction, he couldn't help but be surprised, the speed of this shouting and killing was too fast, even though Xiao Guancheng was not big, so this fast-moving shouting and killing sound was undoubtedly telling himself that the number of enemies was definitely quite large.

Sure enough, not long after, Fang Mingxin and his party, who were leading a hundred personal soldiers to run quickly east on the main street of Xiaoguan, had just run a short distance when they saw a team of oncoming black-clothed soldiers.

Although he couldn't see the face of the person who came, he knew from his clothes that it was Qin Bing.

Fang Ming was anxious, he wanted to know what was going on, how could the Rong people enter Xiao Pass from the east gate, as soon as he thought of this, he hurriedly accelerated and greeted the group of Qin soldiers alone.

The Qin soldiers on the opposite side also saw Fang Mingxin and the others, and when they saw them running towards them, several of them mentioned Changge, but they were quickly stopped by a person next to them.

One man shouted, "Who is coming?" ”

Fang Mingxin suddenly felt a little strange after hearing the question, when did the Qin soldiers in Xiao Pass not recognize him?

After thinking about it, he suddenly realized, and replied: "Xiao Guan's deputy general Fang Mingxin is here, are you waiting for a soldier from Yuanzhou?"

Let's talk about it, what happened at the East Gate, and how many Rong people entered the city? Have you seen General Xiao Guan, Lord Yong? ”

After a series of questions, Fang Mingxin gradually lowered his voice, because he saw that the Qin soldiers in front of him had all raised Changge again, and a smile still appeared on their faces.

Although Fang Mingxin was anxious, after all, he had been in the army for a long time, and suddenly felt that things were not good, so he wanted to turn his horse's head and return to the guards.

But as soon as he turned around, he heard the man shout: "Release the arrow."

Hearing only the sound of "collapse", Fang Mingxin felt dozens of arrows burrow into his body from behind him at the same time.

The good generals of the Great Qin generation didn't even let out a scream, so they planted the horse's head and fell.

"Kill".

The "Qin soldiers" who had just given the order to shoot arrows gave an order, and countless "Qin soldiers" raised Changge to kill the real Qin soldiers who were stunned behind Fang Mingxin.

……

It was dark late in the western frontier of Great Qin, and this majestic fortress was still slowly disappearing into darkness.

The only ones left were some lonely horses in the afterglow of the passing days, pacing back and forth among the corpses outside the city, wailing.

And on this city, the black Xuanwu banner that has never fallen for more than 500 years has never existed, and all of them have disappeared without a trace.

And at this moment, on the banner waving in the wind at the head of the city, a round of burning red sun watched the sunset.

Xiaoguan is about 240 miles away from Yuanzhou, and the Qin State built a galloping road from Yuanzhou to Xiaoguan in the early days of the founding of the country, which is convenient for the mobilization of the border army.

Because Xiaoguan is located on the border, there are almost only some military families living in the city, and the business is not developed, so on weekdays, no one walks on this gallop road at all.

But on the day and night when Xiaoguan City broke, there were many people and horses on this galloping road, but everyone walking on the galloping road in the night had no words, so that they could only hear the footsteps of people and horses.

"Newspaper"!

In the darkness of the night, the lifeless silence was shattered by the shouts of a herald.

Yongyun Qi rode on horseback, his armor was already tattered, the broken leaves on his shoulders fell sparsely on his chest, and only a belt was left on his head with black hair loosely tied on the top of his head, and the rest of the untied hair swayed with the up and down of the war horse, swaying to cover his sluggish gaze.

Looking at the herald in front of him, Yongyun Qi cheered up, raised his head and said softly, "Speak." ”

The soldier came from the direction of Yuanzhou, obviously the scout he sent to the front, and then returned to report the news, so that Yongyun Qi raised his spirits and looked at the scout with some curiosity.

The scout said: "Report to the general, there is a camp ten miles ahead, it looks like it is the Qin soldiers, according to the camp military tent, there are about 5,000 people.

However, his subordinates did not make a noise, and several brothers were watching from a distance, and they hurried back to report the news. ”

When Yong Yunqi heard the words Qin Bing now, he couldn't help but feel tense, and even his breathing became short.

He couldn't tell which Qin soldiers were his own people and which Qin soldiers were traitors of the Rong people.

Before the city was broken today, he was already a little afraid to kill people when he saw them, and cut them down when he met them, and finally he was dragged on a horse by the running Xuanjia to leave Xiaoguan City.

After running for more than forty miles, he gradually regained his senses, and then arranged two scouts to investigate the movements of the Rong people.

And the Qin army outside the city was transferred to Xiaoguan City by his order.

At this moment, when he heard that there was a camp of Qin soldiers, he subconsciously wanted to order a detour.

But after thinking about it, Yongyunqi still decided to check it out himself, if it was a traitor of the Rong people, he would have the heart to avenge it.

He has been a proud character since he was a child, born in the right family, and studied under the best generals of Daqin.

Although the glory is great, in terms of his character, he wants to step out of the aura of his father and teacher and create his own glory.

Originally, when he went to Xiao Guan Shubian this time, he wanted to make some achievements. But I didn't think about it after a few battles, but I lost the world.
