Chapter 611: The Siege (Part II)

The sound of the fighting became quieter, and the spreading soldiers retreated like a receding tide.

In the sunlight without a trace of temperature, the Han Western Expeditionary Army set up a temporary camp, piles of bonfires burned to warm the soldiers, a group of patrolling soldiers, wearing armor with built-in wool, and gloves on their hands with spears and knives, even if it was still cold, it was much better than the Parthian soldiers who were only wrapped in linen clothes, and the road they patrolled extended to the center into the largest tent, in which Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Yan Rou, Hua Xiong, Lu Bu, Cao Chun, Zhang Fei and other generals who commanded the cavalry were all sitting in the room, and the furnishings were simple, But I still don't dare to underestimate everyone here.

A vigorous flame ignited in the iron basin, driving away a lot of chill.

Gongsun Zhi sat on the stool, looked at the information handed by the scout in his hand for a while, raised it, and then passed it down for all the generals to read it. Zhao Yun glanced at it and passed it to the commander of the Black Cavalry Army next to him, and his voice was cold: "Finally, a decent opponent has come." "General Zhao should not be careless." Yan Rou frowned and read the above content, and after reminding him, he handed it to Lu Bu, who didn't look at it, "Any cavalry is enough." It should have turned the temptation into a strong attack before, and someone from the Xiliang Army had already stood at the head of the city. ”

"The rest of the city is indeed a strong city, the temptation has ended, the forcible attack will only lose the army, although we have a lot of people, but all the way down, the morale of the army has to take into account some, and now the reinforcements of the rest people are a little unexpected to me, the weather is cold, I think the earliest spring will come again."

Over there, Gongsun Zhi straightened up a somewhat loose dayu, got up and walked among the crowd: "This army of Anxiu people has 30,000 troops, and there are 10,000 cavalry, if they let them gain a firm foothold, it will inevitably affect our attack on Fandou City." The figure dragged Dayu to the tent, looked at the brilliant but temperatureless sky outside, and squinted his eyes: "They are tired from afar, and it is a good time to attack." ”

Outside, the patrolling soldiers saw the wolf king at the entrance of the tent and stopped to salute.

"Zhao Yun and Ma Chao listen to orders."

During the banquet, the two of them stood up, their armor pieces were shaking, and they arched their hands towards the back of the tent, and said in unison: "Here!" ”

Gongsun Zhi looked back at them: "The camp is now rushing to make siege equipment, and the dismantling from Nisa is still on the way, I will give you two days!" As he spoke, he turned around and walked back to his seat, slamming his palm on the table, "Right under the nose of Fandoucheng, crush the support soldier of the rest of the people." ”

"Yes!"

The two shouted in unison, and then took the military order to stride out of the tent and return to their respective arrays, and soon, five thousand white wolf riders and three thousand Xiliang iron cavalry made a fighting posture, and the soldiers activated the skin and flesh of the war horse, or appeased the emotions of the war horse, Zhao Yun looked at the city wall in the distance with a gentian gun, and had a bloodthirsty impulse.

"It's a pity that there is no chance to attack the city...... It would be nice to have a little more strength in the Sabbaths. He whispered, retracted his gaze, and there was a sound of horses' hooves galloping towards this side in the distance, a lion helmet, a white robe and silver armor Ma Chao raised his gun and reined in his horse: "By the way, General Zhao, there is a question I have always forgotten to ask." ”

"What?"

"Are you married?"

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and the surrounding guards all looked at Jin Ma Chao over there with ghostly expressions, although the northwest man was bold and direct, but this kind of thing, especially when he suddenly asked in the military formation, made him feel a little weird. Ma Chao didn't care about the surrounding eyes, and urged Ma to get closer: "Don't say it, that's nothing, just right, after this battle, I'll tell you about family affairs." ”

β€œ.…… Let's talk about it after playing. Zhao Yun looked at him, shook the reins and rushed out.

On the distant city wall, Vologis stood behind the battlements with his hands on his back, looking at the field in the distance, the army from Alacsia could already see the cavalry of the previous army, the extended family flag, the Parthian military flag seemed to cover the sky, he had not yet become emperor, he already knew the strength of this army, but unfortunately his father was also afraid of it. Among the several great nobles of Parthia, there are actually not many people who are really capable, and now that he is an emperor, he just wants to sweep away this bad atmosphere.

As early as the beginning of the plot to usurp the throne, Vologis had already opened this joint, in addition to the capital has its own army, it also needs the support of other nobles, and the army of Arakosia, which has been resented for many years, is the best target, and for now, every move he has made is proving to be correct.

"This battle, dragging the Celeus people down here, is when my Parthian counterattack, spring comes, the earth warms up, I want to let the Celeus people ...... What's that?."

In the afterglow, two streaks of smoke and dust broke into his field of vision, and there was a faint rumbling sound, and the faces of the generals around him showed surprise: "Your Majesty, it's the cavalry of the Celeusβ€”"

"Stupidity, or arrogance? There are 30,000 people over there! Vologis scolded with a smile.

Boom Boom –

Countless horses' hooves galloped, and the earth shook with it, and in the smoke and dust, after the white-robed and silver-armored generals with gentian guns rushed out, more cavalry silhouettes appeared, and the two cavalry teams embraced the Arakosian army over there like giants' arms on the field.

"I'm going to see how good the Salius are."

Inheriting the bravery of his father's generation, the new general of Arakosia, Nebiris, looked at the cavalry of Celeus with less than 10,000 people, and pounced recklessly, but as the cavalry approached, he felt a faint sense of unsteadiness in his heart, and shouted: "Array to meet the attack-"

In the next second, the iron hoof cracked the ground and bumped into it without the slightest hesitation.

In just an instant, a huge wave was set off in the front formation, and Nibilis saw the shield, the fragments of the shield, and the human body lifted high, and after ten breaths, the front was directly pushed and killed by the other party, and the human body and the fallen corpse were pushed away like a giant ship sailing through the water, and the broken ripples were pushed away. After that, the general Cylius, wearing a lion's mane and a silver armor and white robe, brandished an extremely long iron spear and roared towards him, and the previous rumors became real and clear at this moment.

On the city wall, Vologis's smile stopped on his face, he looked at the army with hope in the distance, and the more than 10,000 people in front of him were directly chiseled, intertwined, and cut in less than a pot of wine, and the defeated soldiers were running wildly in all directions.......

His face gradually turned red, then turned iron, and then smiled and waved his hand to his side: "Nebilis is too proud, he ...... earlier I had expected that where they would be the opponents of the Selius, my father had rightly placed them in Arakosia. ”

"Your Majesty, the reinforcements have been defeated, lest the Cylius suddenly attack the city, it is too dangerous for Your Majesty to stand on the city wall, or return to the palace to command the defense of the city."

The army formation stretched outside the city, and once again heard the sound of the horn faintly sounding on the eastern city wall, Vologis nodded: "I ..... I think so too." ”

In the city of Hekadong Biru, the civilians who had heard the reinforcements saw the emperor and a group of nobles who had ridden up the city wall in high spirits, and after a short time, they hurriedly rushed through the streets towards the palace, and their faces seemed to have a panicked look.

They didn't know about the crushing defeat of the reinforcements outside the city, and for the Parthian emperor and nobles who witnessed the scene of the Terrorist offensive of the Cylius, the whole person was a little bad, but what happened outside did not dare to spread in the city, and once something happened inside, it would be even more troublesome.

Back at the palace, the high priest Balalxin greeted him, and was pushed away by the emperor, and in a fit of rage, he smashed everything he could see, and the fragments, gold and silver utensils made a ping-pong sound on the ground.

β€œ.…… I can't help it, Ballarxin. ”

The tone of his voice trembled slightly, the woman came over to help, his body was shaking, he sat back on the throne, grabbed Bala Erxin's hand, pinched it stiffly, pursed his lips for a while, and slowly spoke: "You...... What's the solution? ”

The high priest squatted down, and his fair cheek rubbed lightly against the back of Vologis' hand a few times, and it took a moment to have a little thought, and then he spoke.

"Then ..... Your Majesty might as well sue for peace and delay for a while."
