"The first person to rush into Tongyuan County will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver! Those who catch the lord Yang Huairen will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver! ”

A loud roar in Ye Litu made the Xia soldiers under his command even more excited, thinking that they had never seen so much silver in their lives, and all the soldiers imagined that they were the lucky ones. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In an instant, all the Xia troops shouted loudly and rushed in the direction of Tongyuan County, there was no formation, only scrambled to run, so as to sprint at all costs.

Maybe for Yang Huairen, five thousand taels of silver is really nothing, but for Xia Jun, whose salary is much lower than that of Song Jun, it is a wealth that the whole family can't spend in a lifetime.

If Yang Huairen knew that in Xia Jun's eyes, his life was worth five thousand taels of silver, and he was willing to spend five hundred thousand taels of silver to buy a hundred lives and save them.

On the Song army's side, in fact, when the Xia army loaded the boulders, they were ready to retreat from the city wall, and all of this was planned in advance.

When the boulder flew towards the city wall, the vast majority of the Song army had already torn off the city wall step by step, and only a very small number of Song soldiers who fell to the end were hit by the splattered gravel and suffered some minor injuries.

There were also a few sturdy minions hiding behind the female wall, watching the flying boulders alertly, judging where they landed, adjusting their positions, and then burying their heads in the protection of their arms to avoid the fatal blow.

After the first round of boulders landed, they raised their heads, shook off the small gravel scattered on their heads and bodies, and continued to look at the Xia army under the city.

Sure enough, as Yang Hou Ye expected, the Xia army only carried out one round of stone-throwing strikes, and when he saw the Song army running down the city wall, he thought that the Song army was frightened back, and he had already rushed over with joy.

His eyes widened, staring closely at the soldiers of the Xia Army who were running and rushing to the front, to see if they also thought about what Yang Hou Ye said, that there was about to be an unexpected change.

Xia Jun was stimulated by the bounty, everyone was running with all their might, their hearts beating violently, and the blood flowing in their veins accelerated.

A summer soldier who had been running at the forefront turned his head to look at both sides from time to time, and made sure that he was the fastest runner, and the happiness in his heart was like wildflowers blooming on the grassland.

Because thousands of infantry ran out of formation, the Xia army scattered and ran, blocking the route of the cavalry, and even if the cavalry behind them wanted to grab the merit, they could only slow down the speed of the horses and could only follow behind the infantry.

He didn't know where Yang Huairen, the Marquis of the Great Song Dynasty, was hiding in the city, as General Yelituli said, but he knew that he was determined to get the reward of 1,000 taels of silver.

He has always been the fastest runner in the team, but he is a little thin, but he is not as good as others in fighting, and the head of his squad and other summer soldiers laugh at him, saying that it is useless to run fast in battle, and only by fighting can he live, can he kill the enemy, and can he be rewarded for meritorious service.

But today, will they still laugh at him? Haha, when I take a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, let all those who laughed at me cry!

He had already run half the distance, and he was still a hundred steps away from the city wall, and the bright military flag of the Song army on the city wall seemed to be already in front of him, as long as he stretched out his hand, he could pull it out.

Not only did he run fast, he threw a rope hook to climb the city wall, he was also the fastest, as long as he was the first to stand on the head of Tongyuan County, pull out the banner of the Song army and wave the flag and shout, he was the one who was rewarded!

He has been in the army for three years, and he is only 20 years old this year, but he has not made an inch of merit in the past three years, and he has never brought any benefit to his family by counting on that little military salary.

If he had the 1,000 taels of silver, his father would not have to look at the sky and worry about it, but prayed that the heavens would let more rain fall, so that the water and grass in the pasture would grow more abundantly, and the cattle and sheep in the family would be fattened and sold for a good price.

His mother no longer has to wear shabby clothes and eat rough food, and his younger brothers and sisters no longer have to be ridiculed as cheap people from poor families, he wants to provide them with reading and literacy, so that they can get ahead in the examination in the future, and no longer have to be like him to serve in the army, not knowing that one day they will die in battle.

Fifty steps left!

His mood was even more agitated, and he felt a little sore in his thighs, but he could not stop, because once he stopped, someone would overtake him and climb up to the top of the city.

Therefore, he could only continue to run with all his might, so that the wind stayed in his ears and fell behind him. But his breathing became more and more rapid, and his heart beat more and more violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

"I can't stop, I'm going to keep running!"

He said to himself firmly. But his legs began to whimper, and his chest seemed to be pressed against a boulder, and he could no longer breathe.

Suddenly, his legs were emptied, and his feet suddenly lost their strength, or his legs were no longer at his mercy, and he stumbled forward, stiffly, and threw himself out hard.

"I can't stop ......"

He fell to the ground in embarrassment, foaming at the mouth and his lips opening as if to say something, but his heart had stopped beating.

His sad eyes widened as he looked at the nearby city walls, and the brilliance of life flashed by, leaving only an endless darkness......

The soldiers of the Song Army who stayed at the head of the city to observe suddenly found that the speed of the running Xia Army began to slow down, most of them were clutching their chests in pain, their faces were purple, and many people couldn't control their steps and fell to the ground.

Even if some soldiers fell, the rest of the Xia army did not stop to help their companions, everyone wanted to be the first to climb the city and pull down the Song army's flag, but as they got closer and closer to the city wall, more and more people began to fall.

The cavalry behind the Xia army's infantry, although they did not run fast, the riders on the horses were as excited as the infantrymen.

But for some reason, someone suddenly fell off his horse, and the cavalry behind him could not dodge, so he hit his horse and fell out.

The cavalry behind could not restrain their speed for a moment, so they trampled over them. There were constantly cavalrymen clutching their chests and falling in pain, trampling on each other constantly, and the cavalry array of the Xia army suddenly became a mess.

The Song army on the city wall was overjoyed when they saw this, and happily gave a loud whistle to the Song army under the city.

Yang Huairen was determined in his heart, and the strategy finally succeeded! He nodded to Yang Shihu and the others beside him, "Generals, next, it's up to you." ”

Yang Shihua led the generals to respectfully salute Yang Huairen, "Hou Ye's clever plan really worked, the following things, please rest assured that Hou Ye will definitely live up to Hou Ye's expectations." ”

With that, the generals turned on their horses and shouted, "Open the city gates!" ”
