Chapter 499: Rescue

Shibi Khan sat on a high point platform, leaning on a tiger chair, with a table on his side, on which were placed Central Plains wine and some dried meat, etc., drinking a little wine, watching the army attack the county town of Yanmen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He is very leisurely, because the army of Yanmen County has been sharply reduced, the grain and grass are insufficient, the city is not huge, and there is a possibility of breaking through at any time, as long as he can plunder these Great Sui courtiers and capture Yang Guang, he will be a great victory, he can ask for territory, gold, etc., and he can also wave his army to the south and break through the Central Plains.

Looking from a high place, the soldiers below are like ants, Shibi Khan had many years ago, or relying on the vassal prince of the Great Sui, the dignified Turkic tribe, the fierce nation, was actually raised by the Great Sui, thinking of this, Shibi Khan is angry, he is not his father Qimin Khan, there is a tiger in his heart, and he is not afraid of offending the Central Plains Dynasty at all.

"Woohoo!"

Rows of sharp arrows attacked the city like locusts, and the defenders at the city head were also firing arrows downward, and the two sides were fighting fiercely, which had lasted for more than ten days.

Up and down the city, there was blood and fire everywhere, dead bodies were lying everywhere, lying in pools of blood, there were tens of thousands of corpses, and there was no time to clean them up.

If it weren't for Jing Yuanheng, Yang Zichong, Sima Dezhan, Wang Rengong, Yu Wencheng and other generals who fought hard, the soldiers and the people were worried about the Turkic massacre, so they fought to the end, otherwise, they would have abandoned the city and surrendered a long time ago.

In Yanmen County, Emperor Yang of Sui and some civil ministers gathered in a county guard yamen, all of them were pale, the city was not big, and the advantage was close to the mountains, so the sound of fighting outside the city could be clearly transmitted and echoed in the sky, and they all knew in their hearts that how fierce it was outside, they could be broken at any time and become ghosts under the knife.

"Reinforcements haven't arrived yet, it's really a waste, a rice bucket!" Yang Guang was impatient and was no longer calm.

He is the supreme of the Ninety-Five, he is trapped here, the huge splendid country, about to lose his chances, he has only been on the throne for ten years, he has done a great job, he has every opportunity, he has not had time to enjoy the fun of the emperor, and the harem has not expanded many beauties, how can he be willing to die like this?

"Your Majesty, I believe that reinforcements will soon arrive to defeat the Turkic army." Yu Shiji, Pei Yun and others expressed comfort.

But how many people believe their words? Can the reinforcements be able to gather hundreds of thousands in a dozen days, and then defeat the Turkic cavalry of three or four hundred thousand? This is not realistic at all, not to mention the current situation of the dynasty, even in the heyday ten years ago, it is impossible to gather enough troops, food, grass and equipment so quickly!

However, none of the ministers dared to say it, for fear of angering the saint, so they directly pulled out and beheaded him.

At this moment, suddenly a guard hurriedly ran inside, shouting: "Report-"

When everyone heard the guard's anxious tone, their hearts trembled, and they thought that the city was broken, and some people were even grinning, and they were about to cry.

"What's the matter?"

"Enlightenment...... Your Majesty, the ...... of the city" The guard was panting, anxious to deliver the news, and replied breathlessly.

"The city is broken?" Yang Guang furrowed his brows, trembling a little, and his face was full of nervousness.

"Out of town...... There is a big chaos, as if a support army is coming, and it is fighting with the rear of the Turks! The guard finally relented.

"Reinforcements are coming?" Yang Guang was pleasantly surprised and shouted: "Is this true? ”

"The little one can't see clearly, but he just listened to General Dugufeng's words."

"Quickly go and investigate, if there is a lie, take you and ask!" Yang Guang's face sank, he didn't know the specific news, so he came to tell a fart!

The guard got up in a panic, turned and ran out again, inquiring about the situation.

When dozens of officials in the government heard the word 'reinforcements', they were also full of hope, and their despair recovered a lot.

After a while, another guard ran in and shouted, "Your Majesty, reinforcements have arrived, Your Majesty ........"

"Don't breathe, say it steadily, what's going on outside the city, which reinforcements have arrived?"

"Your Majesty, a cavalry is coming, it is almost close to the city, someone is shouting Luo Cheng's name, it seems that General Luo is leading troops to rescue."

"Luo Cheng is coming?" Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was stunned at first when he heard this long-lost name, and then he was immediately overjoyed, if it was really Luo Cheng who came, with his intelligence and bravery, maybe he could really solve the siege of the Turks.

"How many soldiers and horses did he bring?"

"It seems like there are twenty or thirty thousand people." The guard looked at the wall for a moment and estimated the number of reinforcements.

"Twenty or thirty thousand?" Yang Guang's smile froze suddenly, and the other ministers also turned gray, obviously disappointed.

Pei Ju arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, don't be disheartened, maybe General Luo Cheng is just a vanguard, and the follow-up reinforcements are not far away, as long as General Luo and others are brought into the city, at least they can keep the city for a while longer, and they can also know when the follow-up reinforcements will arrive." ”

"That's right!" When Yang Guang heard the words of comfort, his heart felt better.

……….

Luo Zhaoyun led more than 20,000 cavalry, twisted into a force, and the war horses trampled on it, like a thunderbolt on the ground, attacking from behind the Turkic army array.

After passing through the Turkic army formation, they crushed up from behind the Turkic soldiers and horses besieging the city, harvesting the lives of these soldiers, and at the same time shouting outside the city, and shooting arrows with notes, that is, to tell the people in the city that they are reinforcements, led by generals such as Luo Cheng and Chen Liang, come to the rescue, open the south gate as soon as possible, and lead them into the city.

When the army at the head of the city saw the arrival of reinforcements, their morale was high, and they concentrated their arrows at the south gate to cover them and block the encirclement of the surrounding Turks.

"Kill—"

Luo Zhaoyun led the army to fight, not only charging into battle, harvesting the Turkic soldiers and horses under the city, but also commanding the army to line up, maintaining cooperation, and blocking the Turkic cavalry rushing up from the left and right directions.

There was a lot of blood along the way, and the soldiers had the courage to kill, even in the face of a five-fold or ten-fold Turkic army, they were all roaring and fighting with fighting spirit, and there was no sign of retreat.

"Bang Chang - "

The south gate was opened from the inside, and although some Turks took the opportunity to pour in, they were soon ambushed by the spear array, sword and axe array, and bow and arrow array arranged inside, and the reinforcements were brought into the city.
