The sound of horses' hooves came from a long distance, first very soft, faint.

But soon it became dense and violent, and the Xia soldiers inside and outside Wuyan City only felt that the battlements were trembling slightly, the earth in the fog was like a drum, and the hooves of the horses were like countless mallets, beating it majestically!

Several Xia soldiers held the fire and looked at the water urn placed at the head of the city in horror, the water in the urn against the west wall shook particularly violently, and the ripples rippled in circles.

"On the west side, is it the cavalry of the Tang Army that has come to attack Wuyan City?" Yuan Hui ascended to the top of the city and urgently summoned the chiefs to discuss.

Everyone couldn't believe it, because the Tang army now has a numerical advantage and has won a big victory, it stands to reason that it will not come here to launch a night attack, or use cavalry

Suddenly, in the fog, it seemed that a fierce battle broke out, swords slashed and slashed, bows and arrows broke through the air, and the shouts of men and horses were heard.

"Isn't it the Tang army that arrived in Wuyan and fought with this group of cavalry?"

After a while, the cavalry of the Xia army, who were like facing a great enemy, mounted their horses one after another and lined up behind the wooden fence to guard.

In the fog, the sound of horses' hooves rumbled, becoming clearer and clearer.

Gradually, a group of blue-gray cavalry in armor faded away the fog veil that was originally hidden on the bodies of the men and horses, and in each small group there were torches, flickering and dimming, but the Xia soldiers clearly saw that the other side was fighting in the head, there were red lions, snow lotus, flying horses and other splendid battle flags, and the number of cavalry was increasing, three thousand, five thousand, or more, and the distance from the wooden fence was getting closer and closer.

"Don't let them come close!" Yuan Hui didn't know whether this group of cavalry was friend or foe, waved his hand at the head of the city, and shouted orders to his subordinates.

But the cavalry that came out of the fog slowed down, and the officers in front looked like tiger tails on their pockets, and their armor was draped with shawls and aprons made of tiger and leopard skin, and then they arrived at a hundred steps outside the wooden fence of Wuyan City, and shouted in fluent Western Tibetan:

"We are the warriors of Dafan, who have defeated the Tang soldiers besieging the city, and have come to the aid of Zampu Zhongqing Tianzi!"

At this time, Yuan Hui at the head of the city blinked, looking at the group of cavalry in the mist, it was like a dream.

He did hope that the Xifan Society would send troops to cross the Yellow River and come to Yanzhou to help him.

However, the cavalry of this Western Fan is too powerful, and they rushed directly to Youzhou.

"Where is Yanzhou, how is Tang Bing?"

The enemy defense envoys of the Western Fan shouted: "I have been defeated by the combined forces of my North Great Fan Province and the Eastern Great Theory, there are countless zombies, lying in the desert, I and other seven vanguard Xiaotongcheek (thousand households) galloped to this city first, dare to ask who is the son of Qingtian?" ”

Yuan Hui violently pressed the arms of the people around him, and then shouted again: "I waited for the Xia people to ask for reinforcements from Zampu, and sent 17 people, except for the rebellion of Ye Shitang, where are the others?" If you can get one or two of them to come forward, we will naturally open the gates. ”

"Your envoy of the Xia Kingdom does have someone in the Great Fan Army, but he is still in Liuboling."

At this time, Yuan Hui's hair stood on end, and he suddenly jumped up nervously, "This is Tang Jun pretending to earn Wuyan City, shoot me, shoot hard!" ”

Before the words were finished, several enemy defense envoys in front of the "Dafan Cavalry" suddenly drove forward with a sharp voice, picked up a strong bow in their hands, and rushed directly to the wooden fence ten steps away, before leading the bow and releasing the arrows.

This was almost an arrow fired against the faces of several Xia army chieftains on the opposite side.

The cluster head of the arrow shot was as sharp as a giant needle, ten steps away, and one by one pierced the head of the party chief in the Xia army array.

Brains and blood, fluttering spurted out of the back of the deceased's head.

Before and after the wooden fence, soon the horse's heads were staggered, and the mournful roar was everywhere, and the army of the "Xifan Cavalry" suddenly rushed to this defense line and fought with the Xia cavalry.

The first archery enemy defense envoy still shouted in the Tibetan language: "I am the prince of the moon, Zhu Xie is obsessive, and the rebel Qingtian son will come to confer the head quickly!" ”

"The Shatuo people have voted for Tang?" Yuan Hui was shocked.

As a result, at this time, a large number of cavalry also appeared in the north of the city, raising fire from the fog to kill, and a young general at the beginning also shouted: "I am Murong Fu, the retreating prince of Qinghai Kingdom, and those who rebel will not die!" ”

"What, Helong's Tuyuhun also voted for Tang?"

Further, a large number of infantry and cavalry of the Tang Army also waved the battle flag and rolled out, most of them were soldiers of the Dingwu and Yining armies.

At this time, the party Xiang Xia army in Wuyan City was so frightened that they had no intention of resisting the enemy, rode on horses or camels, abandoned the city, and rushed to Naiwangjing further east.

Among them is also the so-called Qingtianzi Yuanhui.

Snow fell again in Naiwangjing tonight, the cavalry of the Xia army ran with whips, the Shatuo and Tuyuhun cavalry fiercely pursued behind him, Yuan Hui lay on the saddle, the snow flakes like blades, holding ice particles, constantly whistling past his cheeks and beard, and of course the arrows shot by the Shatuo people behind.

The soldiers were either shot and fell from their horses, or they fled, and finally in the ruins of the snow, his horse was hit by an arrow in the hip, Yuan Hui fell forward, and fell firmly into the snow, his eyes were full of splashed snow foam, and when he struggled to get up, he saw his mount screaming and rolling, and then straightened his front hooves, and lay on his side and could not stand up again.

Yuan Hui hurriedly bent down and crawled a few steps.

In the dwilight snow all around, cavalry rode by, some of his own defeated soldiers, others of pursuing enemy soldiers, leaning against the trees, taking off his cloak, a symbol of status, trying to make himself look like an ordinary soldier.

But not far away, a group of howling Shatuo cavalry, spitting white mist on the horse's head, holding torches, rushed like lightning.

If he stayed under this tree, he would definitely be shot to death by them no matter what.

At the moment of life and death, a Xia soldier came over, dismounted, and then gave his mount to Yuan Hui.

"Who are you?" At the moment before he ran away, Yuan Hui, who was very grateful, turned around and asked.

"Fine-sealed mouse." The Naxia soldier replied by name.

Yuan Hui couldn't see the other party's face clearly, only vaguely felt that it was a young man with loose hair and beard, and the war horse under his crotch ran around, and in a flash, the young man fell behind him.

The group of Shatuo cavalry rushed over, and immediately swung their swords at the thin seal that had lost its horse.

The horse's hooves raised a shower of snow, and the fine seal of the rat should have been cut and fell in the light of the knife

Two days later, Yuan Hui fled back to Tongwan City.

In the Xia army on the entire western front, there were no five out of ten survivors, and the depressed Yuan Hui simply asked all the clansmen in the Yinzhou area of the eastern front to come back, and defend the vicinity of Wancheng, so as not to be wiped out by the Tang army.

Now Wuyankou to Naiwangjing was all captured by the Tang army commanded by Gao Yue.

Because the city was already there, Gao Yue then asked the soldiers of various armies to repair the barracks and cities of Changze, Wuyan, and Liuboling after the snow stopped.

Sure enough, it was the same as Gao Yue expected, about ten days later, after receiving the news of Yuanhui's fiasco, more than 10,000 party members in Luziguan in Shannan, knowing that they were in a desperate situation, took the initiative to sacrifice the castle under the leadership of the leader Po Chao Yimo, and surrendered to Hun Xuan's army in a neat manner.

"The Qiang Rebellion will be completely pacified, and the winter solstice of the following year will not be the latest at the latest." Gao Yue said so in his report to Daming Palace.
