"Chapter 21: The Charge"

The next day, the two sides were not fighting as frantically as yesterday. Instead, pull the army out of the city and fight to the death outside the city! It's good for both parties! Jiayuguan can not only repair the broken city wall, but also give full play to its own cavalry!

Although the infantry of the Western Xia army was strong, the cavalry was not weak! The four coalition forces can't let them out of the city for a decisive battle, which is a piece of cake for those of them who live on horseback all year round! The Jiayuguan army was not taken into account at all!

They thought that the Tanguts would only hide in tall and sturdy castles, but they were wrong, Jiayu Pass guard Fu Qingyun Rong horse for a lifetime, horseback archery is his strength, and because of this, most of his subordinates are still cavalry! Just because of helplessness and lack of horses! Otherwise, his army decided that all of them would be armed into cavalry.

The two sides faced each other outside the city, and this time most of the army in Jiayuguan went out of the city to fight, because they knew that hiding in the castle would still be stoned to death! No one ran away, so people were full of fighting spirit, as if they were not dying.

Yu Xuan didn't want all the people to die in battle, and he didn't want Jiayuguan to be captured by the four coalition forces, he was very anxious, he didn't know when his army would arrive, with the current situation, the sooner the better! The soldiers and horses in Jiayuguan are no longer good?

The two sides lined up to watch, the front was the cavalry, the cavalry was followed by the pikemen and shield bearers, commonly known as the "armor soldiers", the armor soldiers were followed by the archers, and finally there were all kinds of miscellaneous soldiers, with any weapons, some of them were even composed of young people in the city, they were wearing simple peasant clothes, holding weapons tightly in their hands, and their eyes were very anxious and uneasy!

There are cavalry swimming around the square of the army to prevent deserters from escaping, and they have the right to cut first and then play with this bow and arrow in their hands!

The horns of the four tribesmen sounded! The four cavalry are already howling and rushing over! The horses' hooves were like thunder, the dust was flying like a landslide, and tens of thousands of horses were rushing madly!

"Archers! Get ready! ”

"Positioning arrows! Put!!! ”

A flock of feathered arrows swished!! Break through the sky!

"The archers continue to release their arrows, and the cavalry attack!"

After one of the generals finished speaking, he drew his sword and rushed towards the enemy, and all his men rushed forward desperately when they saw it!

The dust, the sound of horses and hooves was earth-shattering, as if it were a sandstorm! The sky gradually darkened, I don't know whether it was the dark clouds or dust that obscured the sun, and the dark and dark winds shouted angrily, "Soldiers, attack with me!" Destroy the rebels! The general of the Jiayuguan garrison shouted that he drew his sword and rushed towards the four coalition forces!

Subsequently, his subordinates also rushed out with their broadswords held high, and most of the defenders of Jiayuguan were locals, and it would be a nightmare for themselves and their families if the four allied forces captured the city. Everyone rushed out like madmen, as if they had forgotten their lives and deaths.

Then the two armies fought together outside the city, the weapons collided with each other, the shouts and screams of the people, and the sorrowful screams between the war horses, deducing a sad song of the era of cold weapons!

"Take down the head of the enemy general and reward 10,000 taels of gold!"

At this moment, the leader of the four companies shouted, he saw the general of the Jiayu Pass defenders, and in an instant! The person who heard it was like a person who had taken an aphrodisiac and saw a beautiful woman who had stripped naked, and rushed over to die! The allure of money!

The two armies blended together like tea and fire, blood flew and screamed again and again, and one life ended like this!

The armor soldiers in the four coalition armies wore heavy armor and charged at the front, they were a torrent of steel, unstoppable, as if no man's land, their team kept in line, and the defenders of Jiayuguan gave a blow to the defenders of Jiayuguan as soon as they met each other.

The defenders suffered heavy casualties, but they were still holding on, even if they retreated, they believed that the Four-Enemy Alliance would definitely follow here to attack the city, Jiayuguan they were bound to win, and the defenders here would face an unprecedented catastrophe! Many people will die in battle, and they may not be able to protect the city, they are desperate, making a final struggle.

The old general Fu Qingyun, who was on the city wall, looked at the people below desperately, and saw that he was a soldier bleeding when he was young, and his heart was very uncomfortable, and his heart was like a knife!

But there is no way, no one can stop it! Is the Western Xia Empire over? He'll let his soldiers shed their last bit of blood and keep their loyal souls here, right? This is also an honor for a soldier!

In an unbalanced war, the defenders of Jiayuguan suffered heavy casualties and withdrew to the city to continue defending, and the four allied forces also paid a heavy price and had to withdraw to rest the army! Also give the Jiayuguan defenders a chance to breathe!

Everyone in the chamber was silent, not knowing what to say? The battle has come to this point, and there are heavy losses, and there are no reinforcements to hold on, only the blood-stained battlefield!

"Tell us what you think?" At this time, a majestic voice sounded, looking a little old, but full of power.

Everyone looked at each other, and not a single one spoke!

"Father! Let's retreat! A middle-aged general said, and all eyes were on him.

Fu Qingyun looked at this, he "withdraw!" ”

"Yes Father, we are going to die if we persist like this! We don't have reinforcements now, the imperial capital has been lost, can we defeat the four coalition forces outside? ”

"Yes! Father, let's listen to the eldest brother first! At this time, someone came out and echoed.

With these two people taking the lead, the other generals also began to echo them, and everyone agreed with their ideas, for this way everyone can live!

"Stand! Who are you? The sound of the guards questioning was heard outside the council chamber, followed by the sound of swords drawn.

"I have something to see your general!" A young man's voice came!

The people in the council hall were stunned, what kind of person dared to break into the council hall, but the guards outside successfully stopped the people! didn't enter the council hall, mainly because Yu Xuan didn't want to cause trouble, he was here to do something, otherwise these few guards would not be enough to clean up by himself!

"This is the council chamber! Outsiders are not allowed to enter, or not, they will be killed! One of the guards said fiercely, and at the same time drew his own knife.

"Who's out there?" Fu Qingyun asked unhappily, "I'll take a look!" ”

When he came outside, he saw a young man who was carrying him on his back and was very handsome, if it weren't for the fact that he was carrying it, others would mistakenly think that he was a literati, and he looked too gentle!

"Who are you? Why are you intruding on my important place, aren't you afraid of death? ”

"Huh! General, I'm here to rescue everyone! It's not for death! Believe me, I have something to tell your father! ”

"I want to see my father! It's not that easy! Can you tell me anything? ”

"I want to solve the predicament of Jiayuguan!"

"What? Just you? "He was amazed at what he had!

"Is that me, about the details? I don't want too many people to know? Do you understand? Yu Xuan said confidently.

"Wait a minute, I'll report to my father!"

"Alright! I'm waiting for you! Yu Xuan nodded and agreed!

After a while, a lot of people came out, and when they looked at them, they knew that they were important figures in the Jiayuguan garrison, and everyone was a little disappointed when they looked at Yu Xuan, such a young person wouldn't be fooling people! There was not much hope for him!

"My father wants to see you! This way, please! The middle-aged general said very politely.
