The captain guarding Juyong Pass was the first to get a report from Deng Qiang sending someone back, so after knowing that Pingxi's army was coming towards him, he hurriedly strengthened his vigilance. On the other hand, he immediately sent people out of the pass to the north to report to Li Xin's army, asking for troops and horses to be sent there to support. Otherwise, with their 500 men and horses, even if they rely on the pass, they may not be able to stop Pingxi's 10,000-strong army.

After all, the two levels of the military capital are both set up to defend the north but not the south, and attacking from the north and attacking from the south are not at all the same level.

Therefore, even if the opponent is coming with 10,000 cavalry, and it is impossible to fully deploy it in a narrow valley, it will be difficult for the defending side.

As soon as Deng Qiang's side separated from each other, he faintly heard some sounds of killing from the mountain wind blowing from the north. Obviously, there was already a war over there, and under this situation, Deng Qiang immediately took action.

He divided his 2,000 soldiers and horses into four teams, each of about 500 men. Then, the four teams were arranged down the valley in turn.

In this way, it is equivalent to forming several ambush points in the valley, and he himself personally led 500 elite soldiers as the first wave to kill behind the enemy.

Under Juyongguan, Pingxi's face was extremely ugly at this time.

He never thought that after he hurried and hurried, he was actually taken by Tang Jun to take the Juyong Pass first.

If this place can't be recaptured, it means that you don't have to do the next thing. can only be honestly blocked here by the Tang army, and let the two northern counties be taken by the Tang army.

"Order everyone to dismount and fight, and be sure to take this pass back as soon as possible!" Pingxi ordered the general beside him murderously.

Compared with other places in the military capital, the inside and outside of the pass are naturally much wider, but they are not too wide. In this pass, if you can accommodate 300 people attacking the city at the same time, it is already very dense.

Under the strict order, the soldiers of the Yan army abandoned their horses one after another, and rushed towards the wall in waves. Because they were cavalry, they weren't meant to be siege troops, especially since they hadn't expected such a situation here.

Therefore, the equipment and other materials that should be prepared have not been prepared at all. In this way, it is a favorable thing for the Tang army who closed the guards. The soldiers of the Yan Army wore shields and used the cover of bows and arrows, and everyone climbed towards the wall like arhats.

Fortunately, the current Juyong Pass is not the one that came later, otherwise, it would be impossible for them to attack it like this. But now, it's quite possible.

A group of Yan soldiers were like ants moving, constantly taking soil and stones and piling them under the wall, and then stepping on the shoulders or corpses of their companions, so they gradually touched the city.

Seeing that there were already a few Yan Army soldiers, who had already begun to cross the battlements, Pingxi's face looked a little better. In this case, it only takes a little more for the pass to be recaptured.

"Report, General Qiyu, hundreds of Tang troops suddenly came out from behind, unstoppable, and they are killing here!" Just as he was happy, someone from the rear came to report.

"What? And the Tang Army behind? Hearing this, Pingxi's smile suddenly froze on his face, and after thinking for a while, he said to himself: "It's not good, this must be the enemy's trick, their soldiers and horses must have been ambushed on both sides of the valley a long time ago, just waiting for me to outflank me from behind when I attack Juyong Pass!" ”

"General, if that's the case, what should we do?" The generals next to him asked.

"Since the Tang army only has a few hundred men, presumably they should be a partial division sent by Li Xin, and the purpose is to take this pass first. In that case, there will certainly not be much of them. Order the rear army to block on the spot and deal with those Tang troops. As for us, continue to tackle key problems, and we will definitely take down this city! After thinking about it for a while, Pingxi felt that the relationship between the two was too big, so he ordered.

Soon, the Yan army was divided into two parts, with about 2,000 people in the rear army, and turned around to resist Deng Qiang and their troops. However, due to the limited terrain, although they actually have a lot more soldiers and horses, they can't rush up all at once.

In short, Pingxi thought that the war in the future should have little impact, at least, it would not affect him in a short period of time when he recaptured Juyong Pass, but in fact, the situation has changed a lot.

"Report, General Qiyu! The Tang army attacked fiercely, and the rear army could not resist it, so please send troops to support! "About an hour after the battle had been going on, the men from behind came running to report it.

"What? With an army of 2,000, it can't stop hundreds of Tang troops? What else do you need to do if you are so incompetent? Hearing the news, Ping Xi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but be angry.

"General, it's not that we are incompetent, it's really because the Tang Army is too powerful. Especially the first member of the Tang General, the water in the dance of a big knife in his hand can't be splashed, and anyone who touches it will be cut in two, and several generals have died under his knife! The herald said with a sad face.

"Hmph, incompetence is incompetence, there are so many excuses!" Pingxi's anger is still unstoppable.

"General, it seems that Juyong Pass is about to be taken, if it is really killed by the enemy from behind at this time, I am afraid that it will be a failure! Please think again, general! Seeing this, the staff next to him hurriedly said to Pingxi.

When Ping Xi heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Juyong Pass not far ahead, only to see that dozens of Yan soldiers had already killed the city, and they were fighting fiercely with the Tang soldiers. It seems that this Juyong Pass will soon be able to take down.

"Transfer another 2,000 soldiers and horses, and tell the generals below that if you can't stop it this time, come and see you!" Pingxi's anger subsided for a while, and finally sent troops over.

But he didn't know that if these two thousand soldiers and horses passed, the fate would be the same.

The previous 2,000 soldiers and horses were unjustly defeated, because the general who led the troops saw that the 500 people led by Deng Qiang were far less than his own, so he directly ordered to chase them.

Deng Qiang pretended to be invincible and retreated directly to the back. Slowly, the two thousand men and horses were lured away from Pingxi's army camp and lured into the place that had been arranged before.

After the two thousand soldiers and horses arrived, the ambush troops in the mountains and forests on both sides fired thousands of arrows, and most of them were killed and wounded at once. Then, at both ends, the soldiers rushed down and cut the two thousand men and horses into four sections, and Deng Qiang led the people to kill them back.

In a short time, two thousand cavalry were wiped out. These people are afraid that they will not accept it even if they die, after all, they are powerful cavalry, if they are changed to a flat and open place, where will there be such a result.

Because Pingxi was focused on the Juyong Pass in front of him, he didn't think about why the soldiers and horses behind him were defeated so quickly.

At this time, there are more and more Yan soldiers at Juyong Pass. It seems that although the Tang army above tried their best to resist, it seemed that they could no longer resist.

"Order the troops to prepare, once the gate is opened, they will immediately kill out of the gate, and control the gate first!" Seeing this, Ping Xi hurriedly ordered.

Sure enough, not long after, the Tang soldiers guarding the gate were surrounded by the Yan army, and finally couldn't support it. The gate fell into the hands of the Yan army, and the soldiers of the Yan army immediately cheered.

"Squeak!" With a sound, the door was slowly opened. The soldiers of the Yan Army, who had already been prepared, immediately rode their horses and rushed forward.

Although the battle above the city was not over at this time, after seeing this scene, a smile still appeared on Pingxi's face.

"Woohoo!" It's a pity that Pingxi's smile didn't last long.

Because just when his cavalry had just rushed to the gate, a wave of sharp arrows suddenly flew from outside, knocking back the Yan soldiers who had just rushed to the door.

Then I heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the north. From the open gate, I could see the flat ground outside the gate, and suddenly a group of cavalry appeared, with crossbows in their hands, and it was obvious that they were the ones who had just released the arrows.

"Don Army reinforcements!" As soon as he saw these soldiers in dark armor, Pingxi exclaimed.

It was the soldiers and horses of the Tang Army who went south to support Juyong Pass, but the general who led it was Liao Chuan.

When Juyongguan sent people to report the news in the north, Li Xin had just led his army to the north of Fuyang County. As soon as he learned of the situation in the south, he immediately ordered Liao Chuan to lead 2,000 cavalry to the south to support.

If it is one step too late, I am afraid that the Yan army will really come out of Juyong Pass. At that time, Juyong Guanfu was captured by the Yan army, and more importantly, the Deng Qiang people who were in the military capital at this time would inevitably be trapped and killed in it.

Liao Chuan led people all the way to this place non-stop, and just happened to see the Yan army rushing out of the pass. So, he immediately ordered the release of arrows and forced these Yan troops back.

"Close the door!" Seeing the reinforcements of the Tang Army arriving, Pingxi didn't think much about it, and at this time he was only thinking about saving Juyong Pass. So, I hurriedly ordered the soldiers to close the door.

But at this time, it was already too late to close the gate, especially after the Tang soldiers above the city found that the reinforcements had arrived, and suddenly became more courageous. The Yan army at the head of the city couldn't resist it all of a sudden, and was actually killed.

As a result, Liao Chuan led the army to rush into the pass dangerously and dangerously. Then, without saying a word, Liao Chuan took the lead and rushed towards the place where Pingxi, the most eye-catching in the Yan army, was.

With his bravery and skill, the soldiers of the Yan Army could not stop it at all. Especially after seeing him kill the commander, the surrounding soldiers came to the rescue, which allowed the Tang Army to get time to enter the pass, and more and more people poured ~ into the Juyong Pass.
