Chapter 59: Breakthrough and Ambush
Nanyang City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the center of the city tower, Lu Xun stood with his hands in his hands, his face was gloomy as iron, his cold gaze stared at the direction of Yang Lin's army without moving, and his short eyebrows were deeply wrinkled.
The battle flag is like a wave, the sword and halberd are like a forest, looking from the high platform, the black pressure is overwhelming, almost overwhelming.
"This Yang Lin really wants to force our army to break through, so besieged but not attacked, sooner or later the grain and grass in my city will run out, and Nanyang will be broken without attacking, so Yang Lin can take Nanyang without spending troops, but it is really cunning."
Lu Xun analyzed the situation with a solemn face, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. "Then why don't you just lead the troops to go out and break through?" Ling Tong asked puzzledly beside him.
Lu Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head, if this is the case, then why do you need to besiege the city?
"Commander Ling doesn't know, this Yang Lin laid down two large arrays, the innermost is a long snake formation, this array is not aimed at soldiers, but for generals, the general generals fall into it, the snake head and snake tail attack it, then this general can be swallowed up, when the Sui attacked the Northern Qi, I don't know how many heroes died here."
"It's so powerful, but I underestimate it." Ling Tong heard this word The Long Snake Formation was so powerful, and worry appeared on his face. "And what about the outer array?"
Seeing that Ling Tong asked about the outer array, the solemnity on Lu Xun's face was even heavier, and he unconsciously clenched the golden silk sword at his waist in his hand.
"This outer array, I have only heard of it, this formation is called Tiangang Seven Killing Array, it is the former Northern Qi Generalissimo, Qin Yi's generalissimo of the unique formation, this formation is varied, Hugh said that the general, even the soldiers, if you can't be familiar with its changes, once you enter the formation, you will definitely lose!"
When Lu Meng heard this, he hurriedly came up and asked, "Sir, can this formation break the formation?" β
Lu Xun shook his head helplessly, "I can't break this array, because I'm afraid that only the descendants of the Qin family can break this array, but the Qin family has long since died, when Yang Lin attacked the Northern Qi." β
"Then our army really wants to sit still?" When Lu Meng heard that he couldn't break the Tiangang Seven Killing Array, his face was full of unwillingness.
A glimmer of hope flashed on Lu Xun's young face, but it was fleeting, "There is a way, but in my opinion, it is better to sit in Nanyang." β
"What's the solution, sir."
"Breakout."
When Lu Meng heard the breakthrough, he seemed to suddenly see hope, "Since you have broken through, why doesn't Mr. arrange for the soldiers to break through?" β
Lu Xun shook his head and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to break through to give news to Xiangyang, but this formation is heavy, and Yang Lin, this person has the courage of ten thousand people, and there are thirteen Taibao under the seat, how can it be said that you can break through the siege." β
"Besides, I'm Nanyang, there are only two generals like you, and I don't want to see any of them lost."
"Don't say it, I'll break through!" As soon as Lu Xun's words fell, Lu Meng suddenly bowed down and asked for battle, asking to break through in person.
Lu Xun waved his hand and said, "Don't come nonsense, this is not a joke." β
"I've never been a child's play, instead of sitting and waiting to die, it's better to fight back on the spot, maybe there is still a glimmer of life, and please ask my husband to agree to me to lead the troops to break through." Lu Meng's firm eyes reflected the indestructible firmness of all things.
Lu Xun was silent, obviously what Lu Meng said was not wrong, now that everything is surrounded, even the passage for grain and grass to enter and exit has been blocked, if it goes on like this, it will only be a matter of time before the city is broken, maybe, there are some things, you can really only know the result by trying.
"Okay, how many soldiers and horses do you need, break out before the sun sets tomorrow." After Lu Xun weighed left and right, he took charge of the Tiger Talisman, his eyes instantly became resolute, and he agreed to Lu Meng's request to fight.
Lu Meng stretched out two fingers and slowly spit out a few words from his mouth, "Two thousand soldiers and horses." β
"Two thousand? Are you sure you can get out? Yang Lin has an army of 100,000. Lu Xun was obviously surprised by Lu Meng's request, thinking that Lu Meng needed seven or eight thousand men and horses to forcibly break through, but he didn't expect that Lu Meng only needed two thousand soldiers and horses.
"There are many people, so it's easier to give me a small number of elite soldiers and let me kill them."
Lu Xun nodded, "Lu Meng listened to the order and ordered you to lead two thousand soldiers and horses, break through tomorrow when the sun sets, and put on a feast together tonight to see you off!" β
"The last general commands!" A mighty echo echoed above the edge of the female wall.
This breakthrough, if it doesn't work, it will be benevolent!
......
At night, Yang Jun's big tent.
Yang Lin was practicing the dragon prison stick method in the handsome tent, which made the tiger and tiger angry, and made the eldest Tai Bao Bao Fang and the second Taibao Xue Liang who were watching from the side fearful.
"Report! Marshal, according to the detailed report, there is a feast in Nanyang City tonight. A rush of footsteps rang out from outside the door, and a soldier ran in and bowed down to report the latest situation.
"Got it, you go down first." Yang Lin nodded, and ordered the soldier to retreat first and continue to practice the Dragon Prison Stick Method.
Picking, stabbing, sweeping, knocking, one move and one style are like flowing water, fluent.
The dragon prison stick weighing about 100 catties made the breeze roll in his hand, startling the candle next to the tent slightly.
"Father's stick method is really superb, presumably even the invincible general of Tianbao is also inferior." Luo Fang and Xue Liang saw Yang Linwu's complete set of stick techniques, and they were stunned and suddenly came back to their senses, and applauded without listening.
Yang Lin saw the two righteous sons clapping their hands and shouting, but they had a look of hatred that iron could not become steel: "Hugh wants to say that I am good, if you practice hard, you can reach such a state in the future." β
After Yang Lin finished speaking, a different color flashed in his eyes, put down the dragon stick, gently brushed the white whiskers next to the corners of his mouth with his hand, and said: "Luo Fang, tomorrow with Yang Xiong, Li Wan, Li Xiang, the four of you will lead an army of 20,000 and go to the south gate of Nanyang, where there is only a way to escape, and there must be no mistake." β
Luo Fang looked puzzled, "Father, why is this?" β
Yang Lin sneered, and coldly swept over a few candles in the distance, and the dancing fire on the candles was extinguished instantly.
The second day, the sunset.
Lu Meng led an army of 2,000 and sneaked to the south gate of Nanyang City, opened the city gate slightly, and soldiers came out one after another.
The November wind, blowing the remnants of the leaves on the ancient road, falling one by one, under the reflection of the setting sun, is all blood red.
"It seems that there is no ambush here, brothers, rush out of this road with me!" Seeing that the road was open and there was no sign of an ambush, LΓΌ Meng gave an order, and two thousand light horsemen rushed straight forward.
"As my father expected, brothers, release the arrows!" The 20,000 Sui soldiers who were lying in ambush on both sides of the bushes bowed down in the low-lying area, and when they heard Luo Fang's order, they all showed their true forms, set up curved bows, and surrounded the 2,000 light cavalry that LΓΌ Meng was advancing.
Whoosh, whoosh, search.
The sound of a string crashing broke through the air, and the arrows converged in the sky like two torrents, and went straight down again, shooting into the light horse.
Lu Meng didn't have time to think about it, pulled out the broadsword prepared on the horse's back, and began to desperately block, bounced away a lot of arrows.
Although Lu Meng was able to seek self-protection in the chaos of arrows with 90 forces, beside him, a muffled sound of flesh and bone tearing was heard, and countless cavalry fell in a pool of blood.
"Suffer death, thief Chen!" Yang Xiong saw that Lu Meng's general trend was gone, so he lifted a simple knife, patted his horse to catch up, and came straight to Lu Meng.
Lu Meng slashed a beam of arrows that came horizontally, looked at Yang Xiong's pursuit, turned around and rode his horse, and raised his knife to meet it.
Seeing that Yang Xiong was already approaching, Lu Meng fiercely raised the big knife in his hand and slashed down: "Avenge my brother!" β
The blade of cold light slammed into Yang Xiong in the blink of an eye like the fangs of the god of death.
Yang Xiong originally thought that Lu Meng was just an incompetent person, but he didn't expect this knife to be so powerful, so he hurriedly swung the knife up, and the two blades collided, sparks appeared, Yang Xiong blocked this domineering blow, but was shocked to the point that the tiger's mouth cracked slightly.
"Thirteenth brother is panicking, let's come!" Luo Fang and the others saw that Yang Xiong had fallen into the disadvantage with only one move, so they hurriedly patted their horses and rushed up with weapons.
Lu Meng only felt a chill behind him, Luo Fang relied on his 84 strength, and stabbed Lu Meng directly in the back, Lu Meng hung upside down on horseback, grabbed a blow, and was scared into a cold sweat.
Li Xiang saw Lu Meng hanging on the back of the horse, and an axe directly chopped down, Lu Meng hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and the war horse was directly cut in the abdomen and back by an axe, and fell to the ground and died.
Li Wan saw that the situation was coming again, and Lu Meng was lying on the ground at this time, with the horse's hooves in front of him, and he didn't have time to react, so he had to scream.
"My life is at stake!"
