Chapter 206: Warmth is seen in the place of trouble

As soon as the sky was bright, the military formation of the Liangzhou Army appeared outside Yuzhong City again, and this battle was a whole day.

This day passed, Xiang Cheng's armor was full of traces left by chopping, his scattered hair was tied behind Xiang Cheng's head, and the mud and blood stains on his face were too late to wipe it, and in front of him were only wind swords and frost swords and Jin Ge iron halberds.

Gan Ning and Sun Jian were already wounded, their faces were covered in blood, and even the hands holding the knife had begun to tremble uncontrollably, this battle had been fought for too long.

The Liangzhou army could still be replaced to rest, but Xiang Cheng and the others did not enter the water and rice all day. Under the advantages of one another, this battle was extremely difficult. Even Xiang Cheng has no doubt that as long as there is a little bit of slackness on his side, I am afraid that it will be a catastrophe.

On this day's battle, the originally abundant Rolling Stone Sasa also bottomed out, after all, it is really not that simple to use 5,000 people against 30,000 people.

With the remaining armaments now, if the Liangzhou army wants to fight at night, I am afraid it will not be enough to deal with them, not to mention that after the night is day, as long as they have such a siege battle, it will be difficult to lose it.

The Liangzhou army was not weak, but Xiang Cheng overestimated himself, overestimated the strength of these 5,000 people, and overestimated the speed of the Han army. As the saying goes, "it is in the people who plan things, and it is in the sky to achieve things", this day has given Xiang Cheng hope, but he did not grasp it. At this time, there was only one sentence echoing in Xiang Cheng's mind - one general is incompetent and tired to death.

But fortunately, as soon as the night came, the Liangzhou army once again withdrew its troops.

Gan Ning couldn't understand the operation of the side chapter, but Xiang Cheng did.

Although it seems that the losses of the Liangzhou army are much higher than those of Xiang Chengjun, in terms of morale, the current Xiang Chengjun can be said to be extremely low.

The five thousand cavalrymen suffered countless casualties, and the wealth and nobility that they once fantasized about returning to Luoyang have now turned into the bright red on the city wall. Once fantasized about making immortal achievements, just today it is flying and drifting with the wind and sand on this Yuzhong City.

Of these 5,000 people, there are less than 3,000 left, and there are actually less than 2,000 people who can go to war here.

Such battle damage is fatal, watching the brothers fall under the knife of the Liangzhou army one by one, maybe some people will be brave, some people will be angry, and some people will want to take revenge. But what is left in the hearts of more people is timidity and fear.

Strength is certainly a valuable quality. And because it's so valuable, not everyone has it.

Looking at the soldiers lying on the ground, Xiang Cheng had mixed feelings in his heart for a while. To say that he has not experienced large-scale battles, but whether it is Youzhou or Yingchuan, his own people have not suffered such large casualties.

People have such a commonality, as long as the "things" around them do not disappear, no one cares whether the world is a flood or a drought. But when the people, things, and things around you gradually disappear, you will feel lost or even depressed.

Xiang Cheng wanted to boost morale, but now he couldn't say a word, and all he was thinking about was how to let these people live.

Because this reinforcement did not arrive, then the person who killed these soldiers was him-Xiang Cheng.

After Liangzhou Mingjin, Gan Ning was covered in blood, and walked over with Yanyue in his hand.

"Jiyu, you and I are waiting for reinforcements here, don't break through tonight!"

Xiang Cheng raised his head when he heard this and asked, "How to break through?" ”

At this time, Sun Jian also came over and said: "Yes, Xingba is reasonable, if the reinforcements are not available tomorrow, we will inevitably be trapped in the city, why not break through tonight." I've just counted the horses and soldiers, and we still have 1,300 horses available. ”

Xiang Chengdao: "There are 30,000 troops on the other side!" ”

Gan Ning said: "If we can force them back once, we can force them back a second time, if not, it will just be the fate of the horse leather shroud." ”

Sun Jian sighed lightly and said: "Originally, with these five thousand soldiers and horses, we wanted to defend Yuzhong City, which was our whimsical move, and we wouldn't blame you if we really died on the battlefield." ”

Xiang Cheng thought about it, although the truth is simple, but in the face of death, everyone will have a grudge, although this time he owes consideration, let him die he is also willing, but the failure of the 1,300 people to break through is aside, but if the breakthrough is really successful, the thousand wounded soldiers in this city will naturally not end well.

Although Xiang Cheng is not a woman, his moral character is not so noble. But seeing these soldiers who were disabled and seriously injured in order to defend Yuzhong, he really couldn't be so ruthless. Maybe Beigong Yu is right, he is not a good lord, not a good warlord. But at this moment, let him leave the wounded soldiers and break through on his own, but he couldn't do it.

But he didn't ask Gan Ning and Sun Jian what to do with these wounded soldiers, but said in battle banner: "Of the 1,300 horses, I will take 300 with me, and you will take the remaining 1,000 horsemen with you." ”

Gan Ningqi said: "Why? You're not going with us? ”

Xiang Cheng patted Gan Ning on the shoulder and said, "I'm going to rob the camp...... You guys...... You take these thousand cavalry and wounded soldiers and take advantage of the chaos to break through! ”

Xiang Cheng's idea is actually very simple, in the final analysis, this matter was created by his willful behavior, although Bai Ren, who contacted him before, and Bai Ren also wrote back to him, saying that he would be able to reach Yuzhong in a few days. However, the current situation is so bad that Xiang Cheng did not expect. He didn't expect that he had no choice but to use the lives of these 5,000 people to guard this place in Yuzhong!

Sun Jian was shocked: "You are going to die for a lifetime!" And we don't necessarily get out of the way with the top, which ......"

Xiang Cheng interrupted: "This move to seal the door is what I did, but I am tired of the soldiers of the three armies, I am ashamed of you!" ”

Sun Jian wanted to say something, but was preempted by Gan Ning. Gan Ning asked, "Have you thought about it?" ”

"Think about it, even if I die in battle, I will protect you well!"

Gan Ning is also worthy of being the person who knows Xiang Cheng best, and the thing Xiang Cheng decided is that ten cows can't be pulled back, so Gan Ning didn't dissuade him, but asked him if he thought about it.

In fact, Gan Ning was even more entangled in his heart, 300 people went to rob the camp of 30,000 people, no matter how it sounded, it sounded like a fantasy. It is reasonable to die of failure, and if you say success, it is definitely not unexpected! Because, it is impossible to succeed at all, and some can only delay the Liangzhou Army for a while and a half.

Gan Ning patted Xiang Cheng on the shoulder and said, "Okay, it's Xiang Jiyu I know!" ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and burst into laughter, and the laughter was so loud that it spread throughout Yuzhong.

Xiang Chengdao: "Xingba, wounded soldiers...... Only...... It's up to you! After saying that, he turned his hand and left.

Gan Ning stood in place and looked at it for a moment, and suddenly said, "Brother Wentai." ”

"Huh?"

"I'll hand over this soldier to you, take them to break through, and I'll die with Ji Yu."
