Chapter 480: Fluttering in White
"See General Yu!"
Leaving Yu Wenyong's room, Yu Yi didn't care about resting, so he dragged his tired body to inspect the city defense of Dingyang City. Although a heavy snowfall won Zhou Jun a chance to breathe, Yu Yi did not dare to slack off.
Along the way, the soldiers of Zhou saluted him one after another. Although everyone was still serious and silent at their posts, Yu Yi could feel the faint depression and panic in their hearts. After all, the 150,000-strong army crusaded against Jinyang, and now only more than 5,000 people have returned, even fools know that the Zhou army must have suffered defeat on the front line, and suffered heavy losses.
"I've seen Lord Yu!" As soon as Yu Yi ascended the north tower of Dingyang City, a man with a long body and a handsome face, about forty years old, greeted him. Although this person's body is a little thin and looks a little weak, a heavy chain mail makes him add a bit of solemnity, especially the wise and decisive gaze in his eyes, which people dare not underestimate.
"Yang Gong, hurry up and be exempt." Yu Yi hurriedly returned the salute.
The middle-aged man's name is Wang Yi, who is the official internal history of the Northern Zhou Dynasty (Secretary General of the Ministry of Education), Yang Guogong. Wang Yi was born in a wealthy family, not only covering the books, but also being skilled in bows and horses, which can be said to be both civil and military. When Yuwen Yong conquered Nanfenzhou and led the army all the way north, he deliberately left him to guard Dingyang City, responsible for coordinating the overall situation and ensuring logistics and supplies.
Wang Yi got up, waved his hand and asked the nearby soldiers to retreat more than ten steps away, only a few steps closer to Yu Yi, his face was solemn, and he asked in a low voice: "My lord, how is the emperor's situation now?" β
Yu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were like electricity, and he looked at Wang Yi tightly, and when he saw that the latter's eyes were full of worry, he didn't have the slightest suspicion before he spoke: "The emperor has woken up, although his body is still weak, but he is much better, I believe that he will be cured in a few days." After a pause, Yu Yi sighed and said, "Actually, the emperor is mainly sick of the heart!" β
Wang Yi picked, although judging from Yu Yi's heavy and tired face, things didn't seem to be as he said, but Wang Yi wisely didn't ask any further. Yu Wenyong's illness has already affected the morale of the army, and if the situation is even worse, Wang Yi doesn't know what chaos will happen in Dingyang City.
"Yes, I hope the emperor recovers soon." Wang Yi sighed, then frowned, and said with some concern: "My lord, two days have passed, and there is still no news from Lord Wei and Lord Liang, I am afraid that it has been more than lucky." β
Yu Yi was shocked, the wrinkles on his face deepened again, his bloodshot eyes were full of thick and indissoluble sorrow, and his originally straight spine became more and more stiff.
For more than a month, Yu Yi can be said to have tasted failure, and he was defeated in the hands of a young man, which made him feel extremely depressed, and he often had time to pass, and Lian Po sighed as an old man.
"To live is to see people, and to die is to see corpses. Try to send someone to find it, I believe that with the wisdom and martial arts of the two adults, you will definitely be able to escape this catastrophe. Yu Yi adopted an emphatic tone, as if to strengthen Wang Yi's confidence, but also to strengthen his own confidence.
As he spoke, Yu Yi lowered his gaze to the outside of the city. A heavy snowfall made the sky and the earth covered in snow, and the outside of Dingyang City really turned into a vast snowfield, which formed a sharp contrast with the hazy sky. Because of the snow, the sky and the earth are very bright, but Yu Yi's heart is dim, and there is no light in sight.
Wei Xiaokuan and Liang Shiyan are likely to have died, Yu Wenyong is seriously injured, and he is always worried about his life, although there are 50,000 soldiers and horses in the city, but Yu Yi does not have the slightest confidence in winning. Dingyang City is far less solid and tall than Pingyang City, and it is not suitable for entrenchment, not to mention that the soldiers in the city do not have much fighting will.
"Lord Yu, look, what is that?" Just when Yu Yi was stunned, Wang Yi suddenly exclaimed.
Yu Yi woke up and hurriedly followed the direction indicated by Wang Yi, and saw that a black shadow suddenly appeared on the first line of heaven and earth, and the black shadow was approaching Dingyang City at an extremely fast speed.
Yu Yi rushed to the edge of the city with an arrow, pressed the arrow stack with both hands, and looked into the distance with wide eyes. The rumbling footsteps came from far and near, Yu Yi suddenly changed color, and he finally recognized that it was a cavalry, the cavalry of the Qi Kingdom, the red robe was like blood, and it looked so eye-catching against the white snow.
"Enemy attack, alertβ"
The Zhou army on duty at the head of the city suddenly exploded, the exclamations of the soldiers, the shouts and scolding of the generals, and the noisy and messy footsteps came one after another, and the scene seemed a little chaotic. Although the morale of the Zhou army in the city was a little low, the reaction was not slow, and in the shouts of Yu Yi, everyone immediately returned to their posts and waited for the arrival of the Qi army.
The cavalry in the north is also becoming clearer. Looking at the huge, iron-painted silver hook, and the vigorous and powerful word "Gao" on the battle flag that was waving in the wind, Yu Yi's face became more and more cold, his lips were pursed tightly, and his eyes were full of murder.
Glad.
Although he could only see that the leader was dressed in white, and he couldn't see his face clearly, Yu Yi knew that it must be the general of Qi Guocha, and the prince of Beiping was happy. It was the young man of Fang Sixteen who led 5,000 iron cavalry to break the siege of Jinyang, turn the tide, and turn the tide of the war, and it was he who set up a poisonous plan to annihilate the 100,000 army of the Zhou State, causing Yuwen Yong to be angry and angry, and he couldn't afford to fall ill.
After a short time, the five thousand cavalry stopped at a stone's throw outside the city, and a fierce aura swept in the face like a fierce wind, cold and slaughtering. Yu Yi's eyes moved slightly, and his heart was both envy and jealousy. The order is forbidden, uniform, and the cavalry under his command is extremely strong in combat whether it is a single soldier or a team.
"It's General Yu Yi in the city? If you don't see mestruation, don't come unharmed? Happy rode out, tilting his head, with a faint smile on his face, and a clear voice came from afar.
Listening to the happy and teasing words, although Yu Yi was angry in his heart and wanted to rush down to the city to kill Happy on the spot, the expression on his face was light, and he said with a smile: "There is a lot of work, and everything is fine with this general." β
Hearing this, he couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "General Yu, I can't imagine that you are so duplicitous and respectful, which really disappoints the kid." β
Yu Yi snorted coldly, looked at him coldly and said happily: "Happy, if you have any tricks, just use them, why bother talking about it here?" Do you think that you can break through Dingyang City with only 5,000 cavalry, you are too arrogant! β
The feud between the two sides is deep and difficult to resolve. Moreover, victory is at hand, and how can happiness miss the opportunity.
He smiled happily, and said lightly: "General Yu, although Gao doesn't dare to underestimate the people of the world, he will not be arrogant, how can Dingyang City stop me?" Although the tone of joy was flat, everyone could hear his strong self-confidence in it.
"Arrogance!"
Yu Yi's face was gloomy and he said coldly. The Zhou army was also in an uproar, showing ridicule on their faces, and in their eyes, happiness was simply a big talk.
Facing the horizontal eyebrows of thousands of eyes, he was happy but calm, and said with a chuckle: "General Yu, the one who knows the times is Junjie, now that Yu Wenyong is seriously ill and there is a shortage of soldiers and food in the city, why do you continue to resist?" My father has always been kind and merciful, as long as you are willing to open the city and surrender, we will definitely treat you and the warriors of the Zhou Kingdom in the city well. β
"Rejoice, don't bewitch the crowd! Our emperor has already returned to Chang'an to transfer troops and generals, and will soon wave his troops eastward again. Yu Yi wrinkled his eyebrows and shouted: "You kid, if there is a kind, you will come to attack the city, see if Ben will be afraid of you!" β
"Good!"
Hearing Xing Xing say this, Yu Yi and Wang Yi couldn't help but be stunned. Even if Dingyang City is weak, there are 50,000 soldiers in the city, and it is tantamount to a fool's dream to break the city with 5,000 cavalry.
However, at the moment when the wings were stunned, the happy body suddenly left the horse's back, and rushed towards Dingyang City like an arrow from the string, with white clothes fluttering and snow flakes flying, and ordinary people could not capture his true body with the naked eye.
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!" Yu Yi snorted angrily and shouted coldly: "Archer, release the arrow!" β
"Woohoo!"
After a brief shock, the Zhou army at the head of the city quickly reacted, opened their bows and released arrows, and in the terrible scream, dense arrows like rain shot towards Happy all over the world.
Happy eyes stared closely ahead, the thick immortal true qi in his body was agitating, his feet were like phantoms, stepping on dexterous and strange steps, light as a feather, like wind and lightning. Because of the ghostly speed of joy, most of the arrows fell behind him, and some of the arrows that were lucky enough to shoot at him were dodged by him by twisting his body, and some fell to the ground with a pair of palms.
A round of arrow rain failed, and when the soldiers of the Zhou army wanted to shoot again, they were shocked to find that Xing Xing had already arrived in the city. I saw him scold, and his body jumped up in the air, swaying on the city wall, and his feet stepped on the city wall repeatedly, and he approached the city head in the blink of an eye.
"Get down!"
Wang Yi always paid attention to happiness, and when he saw that happiness was about to fall to the city, he couldn't help but shout angrily, and slashed forward with a long sword in his hand.
"Hey!"
Although Xing Xing had nowhere to borrow strength in the air, he was not afraid, and shook the wide sleeve of his left hand vigorously. There was a muffled sound of "bump", and under the infusion of happy internal force, the thin sleeves also became very flexible, swinging the long sword that Wang Yi had chopped. And Xing took advantage of the situation to fall on the head of the city, and threw his right sleeve forward in the same way, knocking out the Zhou army that wanted to besiege him.
"Rejoice to die!" Yu Yi had already attacked at this time, although he was no longer young, but he came with anger, the sword in his hand was cold, and the tiger was vigorous, which made people dare not underestimate it.
"Good time!" laughed happily, waved his hands in a circle, and once again retreated Wang Yi, and at the same time reached out and snatched the spear in the hand of a Zhou army. Happy wrist trembled slightly, the spear poked out like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, and the sound of "ding" hit the tip of the sword stabbed by the wings.
With the increasing depth of skill, both speed and strength have reached a point that ordinary people cannot reach. Although Yu Yi was not weak, he was still not a happy opponent, the offensive was blocked by happiness, his body couldn't help shaking, and he took a step back to stand firm, and his qi and blood surged.
"Kill him!" Yu Yi was horrified in his heart, and his face became heavier, but this did not make him afraid, but aroused his murderous intent even more. If this son is not removed, it will be difficult to say that Dingyang will be difficult, and it will definitely be a big disaster for Da Zhou in the future.
"Who can stop me!" With a long roar of joy, he held a gun in both hands, like a dragon going out to sea, and killed Zhou Jun so much that he cried his father and called his mother, and no one dared to take it lightly.
