Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Fall of Tushan

Jiang Yeli jumped over the soldier as if he had a spring, and rushed out of the mansion with his legs. His tormented heart had sunk to the bottom.

From the west and the city tower, looking to the north, only to see the flickering firelight, thick smoke billowing, hideous roll straight to the sky, in the blue sky and white clouds against the background, particularly shocking.

Jiang Yeli propped his arms on the city wall, only to feel that his legs couldn't stand. There is no doubt that Tushan was attacked by the enemy. And looking at the momentum of the fire so fiercely, the two thousand reinforcements are afraid that they will be more than lucky. If Yang Wanfu is lost in the hands of the enemy, it is the cousin of the great chief, and if he is placed in another country, he will be guilty of losing the vassal king, and the granary was burned before, even if he Jiang Yeli is not beheaded by Yang Maosou, he is afraid that he will not be able to stand among the people of Wudu in the future.

No matter how calm a person is, when he encounters a series of bad luck, most of them can't hold on, at this moment Jiang Yeli only feels dizzy and frustrated.

After staying for a while, Jiang Yeli gritted his teeth, suddenly turned around, and was about to stride downstairs, ordering soldiers and horses to go out of the city to rescue. didn't take two steps, and his subordinates had already dragged him down, saying that the enemy situation was unknown at the moment, and it was taboo to attack rashly, and the general should not be impulsive. Jiang Yeli struggled and shouted: "How could I not know this kind of truth, but after the fall of General Yang, how could the big leader spare me and others?" ”

Some of the left and right people changed their colors when they heard the words, and they hesitated to let go. While they were arguing and tangling, the soldiers on the side of the city wall shouted in surprise, "General, general, come and see!" ”

Jiang Yeli hurried back to the city wall in a few steps. But half a mile away, a large number of people appeared in the field of vision, the pace was steady and fast, and the bearing was serious. Although there are thousands of people, there is a kind of high military force that is difficult for thousands of people to defeat. When it was closer, the banner of the front army was moving, and there were only two words on it: Longxi.

Jiang Yeli's muscles twitched, and his pupils shrank suddenly. After suffering for so long, I finally waited for the main master, and it was really a Han from the north! Jiang Yeli scolded, these cunning fox-like people will do some unseemly deeds, set fire to grain, and frame them, the heroes of the Di tribe never disdain to do this, can they dare to fight with us face to face?

The subordinates next to him said with a heavy face: "General, if there is no fighting, then how did they take Tushan?" ”

Jiang Yeli was speechless for a while. When looking at it again, the enemy army under the city neither stayed nor attacked the city, and directly bypassed from both sides of the city, Jiang Yeli was inexplicable, and a soldier hurriedly ran over, and reported loudly: "General, the enemy army is assembled under the south city gate, and said that the general is invited to answer." ”

The south gate is the direct gateway to the lower city. To put it bluntly, the enemy's formation in the southern city was to intercept the communication between Xihe and Xiabian, and at the same time besiege the city and send reinforcements, so as to truly isolate Xihe into a lonely city far away from the southern Zhudi.

South Castle Up. Jiang Yeli stared at the imposing enemy troops under the city with a complicated expression. I saw that the enemy soldiers and horses were neat, the spear was shining, and the armor was cold. At a glance, there are more than 5,000 people, although they are all silent, but there is a sense of persecution that black clouds are overwhelming the city and want to destroy it.

A fat and fierce enemy general took two steps forward and raised his head and shouted: "Where is the lord of the city?" ”

Jiang Yeli cheered up and said viciously: "I am, where is the army under the city?" ”

The enemy general laughed twice and shouted: "I am Gu Siduo, the forward officer under the command of Longxi Taishou and General Yingyang. My Longxi army is invincible! He raised the iron broadsword in his hand violently into the sky, and thousands of sergeants behind him burst out in a burst of shouts: "Invincible!" ”

Its high-pitched sound was deafening and deafening, rolling over the sky of Xihe City. Jiang Yeli looked back in a panic, but saw that all his subordinates were worried.

Jiang Ye made up his mind, and in order to win back some momentum, he made a gesture and scolded: "You are despicable and shameless, hateful, and you have violated my realm for no reason, what is the reason?" If I don't retreat, I'll ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the enemy general Gu Siduo interrupted him unceremoniously, and said in a loud voice: "My general gives you three choices." Shangce immediately opened the city and surrendered. The middle strategy fled the city, and the next strategy was to resist the city. Hurry up! ”

Anyway, don't wait for the city to react. The enemy general Gu Siduo waved his hand, and two more people from the enemy army pushed out and stood in front of the people. Jiang Yeli fixed his eyes and saw that one person was a personal soldier who had been sent out of the tunnel to contact the reinforcements of Tushan; The other person is Yang Wanfu, the chief general of the reinforcements and the nephew of the big leader!

Both of them were properly bound and looked embarrassed. Gu Siduo stared at Yang Wanfu with a gloomy face. Yang Wanfu had no choice but to raise his head and said astringently: "Jiang, General Jiang!" I was defeated and captured, needless to say. You don't have many soldiers in the city, and you don't have food or grass, so it's better to plan for the people and people of the city......"

The captured soldier raised his head and cried: "General! As soon as I got out of the tunnel, I was caught, and I couldn't help it, General! ”

It turned out that Yang Wanfu suddenly saw the fire in the back mountain, and knew that it was not the number of roads, so he jumped up immediately, beckoned his subordinates, and was about to rush out. Moreover, there are enemy troops roaring and clamoring at the foot of the back mountain, and the momentum is strong, I am afraid that there are many people, and the Tushan reinforcements have no choice but to turn around and rush down the front mountain.

As soon as he approached the foot of the mountain, he was greeted by the Longxi archers who had been waiting for a long time, and he was caught off guard by a rain of arrows, and shot down more than 30 soldiers when he landed. Yang Wanfu gritted his teeth at first and commanded a hard charge, wanting to tear a hole so that he could retreat to Xihe City, but the Longxi archers took turns shooting, and the arrows could not stop, and his side had already suffered more than 200 casualties, but it only advanced about 50 steps.

After being knocked down by more than forty people, he was finally less than thirty paces away from the enemy. Suddenly, the archers stopped shooting, turned around and ran backwards. In the enemy army, countless bright broadswords and cold spears were stretched out at once, and then they wanted to run forward, as if they took the initiative to hit those murder weapons that cost people's lives, Yang Wanfu hurriedly stopped the momentum of running, and there were indeed those who couldn't stop or ran dizzy, and directly hit head-on, letting out a terrible scream.

In fact, at this time, there were still 1,500 people who could fight in the Tushan reinforcements. If Yang Wanfu is not afraid of the enemy and calmly commands, he can quickly gather his subordinates, concentrate his forces, focus on breakthroughs, and kill diagonally from the flank of the Longxi Army, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to break through.

However, the truth is often not so much yet. Yang Maosou and his two parents and children can be regarded as brave and brave men of the Di tribe, but Yang Wanfu is still young and has never experienced any major battles. When he came to aid Xihe City before, Yang Maosou originally planned to call his second son Yang Jiantou to come, but Yang Wanfu took the initiative to ask for help, Yang Maosou was very appreciative, and in the spirit of letting his nephews in the next generation exercise more, he determined that Yang Wanfu would lead the troops to the rescue.

However, Yang Maosou also knew that this little nephew was a fledgling, and most of his hair was not firm. He repeatedly told Yang Wanfu to adapt to the situation, closely cooperate with the defenders in the city, and if he encounters the enemy, he must not be cowardly, he must dare to fight in the face of the enemy, and he must not be the first to lose courage and demoralize.

Yang Wanfu went away. In his heart, he really wanted to be like his father and brothers, to be a good descendant of Qiuchi Shenshan who was majestic and brave and good at fighting. However, reality told him that war is cold-blooded and cruel, and if he is not careful, he will lose everything, and there is no room for maneuver.

After Gao Yue was arranged, he launched a surprise attack. In the midst of the sky-high fire and the earth-shattering shouts of killing, Yang Wanfu really panicked, and just wanted to escape the battlefield and rush into Xihe City. It's just that he doesn't even have any rules to escape, he just clashes everywhere, and even with a group of subordinates, it has become a plate of scattered sand, morale is gone, and Han Bai has no way to live again.

Yang Wanfu was at a loss, Gao Yue had already led a hundred horsemen, and rushed out like a whirlwind. Yang Wanfu was frightened when he saw it, and he didn't resist it, so he was captured by Gao Yue himself, and ordered the binding to stop, so the Tushan reinforcements collapsed, and all of them surrendered to the ground.

At the same time, according to Duochai's intelligence, Gao Yue had already arranged manpower, found the tunnel entrance, and guarded it in full armor, and the personal soldiers who were sent out of the city by Jiang Yeli were just poked out of the tunnel, and they were dragged out and subdued on the spot.

At this moment, Yang Wanfu, who was lost in the city, and a group of Tushan reinforcements who had already been disarmed and depressed, became more and more majestic and high-spirited in the Longxi Army.

Jiang Yeli was dumbfounded and speechless for a while. Originally, he had made up his mind to defend the city to the death, but this time his heart was in chaos and chaos.

The cronies on his side, Ai Ai said: "General." Now the grain and grass in the city have been burned, the reinforcements outside the city have surrendered, and the soldiers and civilians have no fighting spirit, and this city is not easy to defend. If you leave the city and go by yourself, the enemy army will firmly surround the south gate, making it clear that you can't get out from here, the only way to go is from the north gate, but the further north you go, the more it is the territory of the Han people, let's go north, where can we go? This is a deliberate game set up by the enemy, and we can't do anything about it. ”

The cronies glanced at Jiang Yeli, and when they saw that there was no difference, they stubbornly said: "It's helpless to attack and retreat, there is only the only way to open the city and surrender at the moment." ”

Jiang Yeli's expression changed several times, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Hold on for another ten days." If within ten days, the big leader sends reinforcements, we can still win by attacking inside and outside. If after ten days, there are no reinforcements coming, we will surrender, and it seems that we have surrendered from exhaustion, and the big leader is not to blame much, and the Han people in Longxi here will not despise us too much. ”

The cronies were impressed. It's really a good way to get the best of both worlds, relatively speaking. The city gate was opened without fighting, not to mention that the clansmen behind him would spit on it, even the surrendered Jin army, most of them would also be high, with contempt and contempt.
