Chapter 427: The People's Heart
The enemy was about to be cut off from his horse, and the Qi army suddenly had a great morale, and under the leadership of Mo Duolou Jingxian, they all rode their horses and raised their swords, and rushed towards the Zhou army with crazy shouts.
When the narrow road meets, the brave wins.
Thousands of soldiers from the two countries of Qi and Zhou collided together like two torrents, and suddenly burst into earth-shattering Lang flowers. Compared with the Zhou army that did not command, the Qi army was high, and the formation was neat, and under the leadership of Mo Duolou Jingxian and the guards surnamed Zhang, it was like a sharp knife, fiercely inserted into the Zhou army.
"Soldiers, kill all the Zhou thieves and capture Yuwen Yong alive!" Mo Duo Lou Jingxian did not escape the slightest benefit in Yisheng, he covered his face and was damaged, and he already had a bad breath in his heart, but now he seized the opportunity and immediately vented it. While roaring angrily, he waved his mace vigorously, smashing left and right, Sergeant Zhou was next to him, the light ones were broken bones and tendons, and the heavy ones were blurred with blood and flesh on the spot, and they became meat cakes.
Behind Mo Duo Lou Jingxian, the three thousand Qi troops were also not as good as the slightest, and the cold light of the steel knife in his hand flickered, constantly reaping the lives of the Zhou army.
For a time, the Qi army was like a god of war possessed, with one as ten, brave and extraordinary, and the Zhou army was killed on his back, and the ghost cried wolf. Thousands of Zhou troops were soon divided by the Qi army, the formation was completely scattered, and the speed of Internet access skyrocketed.
"Kill all the thieves, kill, kill, kill!"
In the past two months, the Northern Qi Dynasty was basically in a comprehensive defeat, and the soldiers had long been holding back an evil fire in their hearts, and now they had the opportunity, they were finally able to kill the Quartet, and hit the Zhou army, and their hearts were naturally excited and happy, although their own casualties were not small, but they were more and more brave in the battle, and completely suppressed the Zhou army.
"Qi Gouxiu wants to be rampant, kill!" In a short time, the reinforcements of the Zhou army had come to nearly 1,000, densely trained, and I am afraid that there were no less than 5,000 people, like a brown torrent, surging and terrifying.
Tang Yong saw it really at the head of the city, and hurriedly said to Gao Yanzong: "Your Majesty, the reinforcements of the Zhou army are coming, and if our army fights for a long time, I am afraid that it will fall into a heavy siege." β
Gao Yanzong nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Order, let General Mo Duolou enter the city." Archers are ready to answer! β
With Gao Yanzong's order, the stirring drums at the head of the city suddenly repeated. Mo Duolou, who was killed, was in a clear spirit, glanced at Zhou Jun, who was approaching rapidly, snorted a little daringly, and then shouted loudly: "The rear team becomes the front team, rush back!" β
After speaking, he turned his horse's head and rushed towards the way he came, his mace flew up and down, smashing the Zhou army in front of him one after another, advancing by leaps and bounds all the way, no one dared to stop him, so not majestic. The soldiers of the Qi army no longer loved to fight, and quickly changed their formation and rushed towards Jinyang City.
"Chase!"
"Mo Duo Lou Jingxian is gone, there is a kind of turning back and fighting again!"
"Kill!"
Seeing that the Qi army was about to escape, how could the Zhou army be willing, he immediately used all his strength, ran wildly, and chased and killed.
However, just as the Zhou army was about to catch up with the Qi army, a sharp sound of breaking the air suddenly came from the city. Zhou Jun looked up and was immediately frightened. I saw that a dense rain of arrows was shooting down from the top of the city, and before the Zhou army could dodge, it was fiercely inserted into their bodies.
"Retreat, retreat!"
As a last resort, the Zhou army could only retreat in embarrassment, retreated to a safe place, and looked at Mo Duolou Jingxian under the city and Gao Yanzong on the city with a resentful face.
"Into town!"
Mo Duo Lou Jingxian saw that most of the Zhou army was coming quickly, took a deep breath, and after leaving five hundred people to break off, he led the remaining two thousand soldiers to rush towards the city quickly.
The three thousand Qi troops who went out of the city this time were considered elite, although they were not as good as the cavalry division under Qin Qiong, but the overall strength and military literacy were not bad, and they finally got rid of the Zhou army's encirclement and pursuit, and fled to the coverage of long-range weapons in the city. However, the Zhou army was not a vegetarian, although it was killed by the Qi army by surprise and retreated, but the Qi army also had nearly 500 people fall on this land forever.
When Yu Wenyong came to the city under the arch guard of Wei Xiaokuan and other generals, looking at the scene of corpses all over the field and blood flowing all over the ground, and looking at the corpse of Yi Sheng, who was not blind, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and the hand holding the horsewhip creaked.
Yu Wenyong raised his head and looked at Gao Yanzong under the yellow banner at the head of the city, and his eyes suddenly became extremely cold.
"Yu Wenyong, I haven't seen you for many days, don't come to call unharmed?" won a small victory, and Gao Yanzong was in a good mood. Seeing Yu Wen Yong looking at him, he couldn't help but have a smug smile on his face, and looked at Yu Wen Yong condescendingly.
"Without the concern of King Lao Ande, my body is as always, and I can still straddle the horse and raise the knife to capture and kill the bandits." Yu Wenyong took a deep breath, his face regained his composure, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and he said lightly, as if nothing had happened to Fang Cai.
After a pause, Yu Wenyong continued: "King Ande, the day before yesterday, I heard that you murdered the Qi lord Gao Wei and established yourself as the emperor, and I still didn't believe it, but when I saw it today, I realized that there was really such a thing!" β
Seeing that Yuwen Yong kept calling himself "King Ande", and distorted the facts, saying that he had rebelled and usurped the throne, Gao Yanzong's fat face suddenly turned iron blue, and he shouted angrily: "Yuwen Yong, you old horseman, my ascension to the throne and the title of emperor is the will of the people, and the expectations of the people are the same, and it is useless for you to try to insidiously provoke." β
"Although I know that my talents are mediocre, far inferior to the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, I will not tolerate you, a shameless old horseman, trampling on the land of my Daqi and bullying any of my people in Daqi. I swore on this day today that I am willing to live and die with the rivers and mountains of Daqi, and I am willing to live and die with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Jinyang City! β
"Live and die together! Live and die together! β
Tang Yong and the others were moved when they heard this, their blood boiled, and they couldn't help but echo loudly. The sound was like a tide, surging and surging, infecting everyone in Jinyang City, calming down their nervous and panicked moods, and also making the morale of the Qi army climb to the peak.
Listening to the deafening cold sound in the sky, Yu Wenyong's eyes couldn't help but squint tightly, and his eyes were very gloomy. He clenched his fists, clenched his teeth, and stared at the extraordinarily proud Gao Yanzong at the head of the city, full of murderous energy.
"Your Majesty!" Feeling the surging anger in Yu Wenyong's heart, Wei Xiaokuan couldn't help but look at the former with some concern.
Yuwen Yong didn't look back, he glanced deeply at Gao Yanzong at the head of Jinyang City, his face finally regained his calm, and he said coldly, "Collect the troops", and walked towards the camp in the lead.
"Yu Wenyong, but that's it, hahahaha!" When Gao Yanzong saw the Zhou army retreating, he was overjoyed, and laughed wildly, the mockery in the laughter made Yu Wenyong on horseback shake, his teeth creaked, and his eyes were full of murderous intent in his eyes.
Shame, shame never before.
Yu Wenyong never thought that he would be ridiculed by Gao Yanzong, who had never been in his eyes and was like a pig. If it was Emperor Shenwu Gao Huan who was alive Chen Guojun Chen Ji, he would not be so angry.
Yu Wenyong wanted to order an all-out attack of 100,000 troops more than once, set foot on Jinyang City, and kill Gao Yanzong with his own hands, but reason told him that he couldn't do this.
Today's small victory of the Qi army, Gao Yanzong's bold words on the day of the oath, greatly inspired the determination of the soldiers to fight to the death and win, and even took advantage of this to win many people's hearts. If the Zhou army launched an attack at this time, it would undoubtedly provoke a strong resistance from the army and people of the Qi State, which was obviously not a wise move for the Zhou State. Yes, even though Yu Wenyong was angry, he still calmed down and made the most rational decision.
β¦β¦
Outside the city of Jinyang, the camp of the Zhou army, the handsome tent.
"Your Majesty, it was the negligence of Weichen that led to the death of Duke Yisheng of the Yan clan today, and our army was defeated, please ask Your Majesty to surrender!" Wei Xiaokuan fell to his knees with a heavy face, and said sincerely and guiltily.
Yu Wenyong rubbed his brows vigorously, then waved his hand and sighed: "Wei Aiqing, get up, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers." I am not a faint king who does not know things, how can I not know, this time it is because our army underestimates the enemy, if you talk about responsibility, I am the greatest! β
"Your Majestyβ" Wei Xiaokuan was both moved and frightened, and called out hurriedly.
"Wei Aiqing, get up!" As he spoke, Yu Wenyong stood up, turned to look at the more detailed map of Qi hanging behind the bookcase, and said with some sigh: "I thought that this Eastern Expedition could be like a bamboo, but I didn't want to have many twists and turns. First, Qi Wang Yu Wenxian disappeared, and then Yu Yi and Yu Wenxian's 50,000 troops were wiped out, and Jinyang was not broken. It's cold, the soldiers are tired, and I'm afraid it's not good to be away for a long time! β
Hearing Yu Wenyong's words, there was a hint of depression, as if he wanted to withdraw from the army, Wei Xiaokuan's eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of anxiety.
"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, but now we are ready to send them. If the class teacher returns at this time, won't the efforts of the past two months have been in vain? Although the Qi State abolished the old and established the new, the morale was greatly boosted, but the puppet emperor Gao Wei would never give up, because Jinyang was just a lonely city, as long as we broke Jinyang and captured Gao Yanzong, the Qi State would fall, and there would be no resistance anymore. β
After a pause, Wei Xiaokuan continued: "However, once we withdraw from the army, Gao Yanzong will get a chance to breathe, and if we go on another eastern expedition in the future, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult." I hope Your Majesty will think twice! β
"What Wei Aiqing said I also considered, but now if we don't retreat, how can we break through Jinyang City? I believe that with my 100,000 elite men attacking the city, I will be able to set foot on Jinyang, but the casualties will be extremely heavy, which I will not allow. Yu Wenyong looked at Wei Xiaokuan with burning eyes and said: "Although I have worked hard in the past two years, the country is rich and the people are far stronger than in the past, but the surrounding area is surrounded by tigers and wolves. β
"Your Majesty is thinking about it!" Wei Xiaokuan nodded in agreement, and then said: "But Weichen thinks that we can't withdraw our troops easily, and we can think of other ways." β
"Wei Aiqing, what do you think, come quickly!" Yu Wenyong's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say hurriedly.
"The minister's foolish opinion still needs to be examined by His Majesty!" Wei Xiaokuan said modestly, and then said: "Your Majesty, the so-called country is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change. Gao Yanzong is tyrannical, and he was unscrupulous when he was in Dingzhou, provoking the people to dare to be angry and dare not speak, although now because of my large army on the side, he took the opportunity to ascend the throne and become the emperor, and restrained his temperament, and won the support of the people of Jinyang, but Weichen believes that he will eventually expose his tyrannical nature. β
After a pause, a playful smile appeared on the corner of Wei Xiaokuan's mouth and said: "Since ancient times, the highest level of warfare in the direction of the army without a fight, since Gao Yanzong wants to win the hearts of the people, why don't we use this as a breakthrough?" β
