As usual, the Naga soldiers shouted, "For the emperor!" ā
The Liang soldiers shouted, "For Yang Shuai!" ā
The kind and simple soldiers, although they are used to giggling with Yang Yu, and even make jokes about Yang Yu, they love this commander who has no official pretension and usually sits on the ground with them to eat. They don't know too much about the big truths, but they know that this expedition is the best to eat, and the most military merit rewards.
Before the attack, they were told that it was their Yang Shuai who personally led people to seize the city gate! The soldiers were surprised, and their blood boiled one by one, and they couldn't wait to rush up to replace their Yang Shuai.
Yang Yu had already withdrawn from the city gate, extremely weak, drenched in the rain all night, and the fight had exhausted all his strength, and now he had to rely on the support of Su Bing to stand. But seeing that the battle situation was stalemate, Yang Yu said to Su Bing: "Find me a horse!" ā
Su Bing's body was strong, and his state was slightly stronger than Yang Yu, so he refused: "Yang Yu, no, you can't do anything now!" He clearly felt that Yang Yu had almost run out of oil, and he barely hung on himself to keep it from falling.
Yang Yu looked at Su Bing steadily: "Quick, find me a horse!" Don't let your progress go to waste! ā
Su Bing was taken aback, what kind of eyes is this, there is firmness, faith, and responsibility, the kind of courage to move forward and give up who else is really shocking, is this still the gangster in that border town?
Su Bing found a horse, Yang Yu wiped his face indiscriminately, took a Liang military uniform handed to him by someone and put it on, and everyone pushed him onto the horse - Yang Yu had collapsed, and he couldn't get on the horse anymore.
Yang Yu shook his head, his head was dizzy, and he bit the tip of his tongue hard, and the huge pain made him sober up a little, "drive", and beat the horse and moved forward slowly.
Da Niu silently raised a big flag and followed.
"Yang Shuai is here!" He was spotted by soldiers. The soldiers looked over one by one.
It can be seen that their Yang Shuai is very weak, sitting on the horse and still shaking, his pale face is full of red blood, and he is only wearing an ordinary military uniform, but all this not only does not affect the soldiers' love and reverence for him, on the contrary, under the fluttering of the black military flag, Yang Yu's straight body and firm expression exude a poignant and heroic temperament, which makes everyone who sees it heartbroken.
The soldiers spontaneously gathered around him and protected him in the middle.
Yang Yuji pointed forward and used all his strength: "Long live the beam!" Take the gates! ā
"Long live the beam!"
"Long live Yang Shuai!"
The soldiers shouted and rushed to the city gates. The Changhe soldiers didn't know what was going on, they only felt that the Liang army on the opposite side suddenly seemed to be crazy, and rushed forward desperately, even if they didn't hesitate to face the tip of the gun, and even bit their teeth and use the top of their heads, using their own bodies as weapons, and the Changhe soldiers couldn't stand it anymore.
The east gate of Xijing was lost.
The next development is like mercury leaking out of the ground.
The battle for the city gate has been said for a long time, and everything actually happened in less than half an hour, and the incident happened suddenly, the army in Xijing City was completely defenseless, and the Liang army drove straight into after seizing the city gate.
On the same day, the supreme commander of the city, Chuan Yunjian, was missing in the war, which led to the news that the city gate was in danger and did not spread out immediately.
Yang Yu expressed deep regret for the tragic death of such a chief and senior general, and at the same time thought: Who asked him to pretend to be thirteen and pretend to be handsome, and he was wearing silver armor, this is not to make it clear that I am a big official, come and beat me!
When Zuo Jiateng led the reorganized reinforcements to arrive in the afternoon, he saw a huge column of black smoke burning from Xijing everywhere from a distance.
Yin Wancheng received the news delivered by Yang Yu, and proposed that he would defraud the city gate, if he could successfully ask Yin Wancheng to block the incoming army, Yin Wancheng saw the plan, admired Yang Yu's courage, and was surprised by his plan, and said angrily: "Reply to your marshal, as long as he can enter the city, the chief and 200,000 reinforcements will be handed over to Yin." ā
On that day, he faithfully fulfilled his promise, Zuo Jiateng used all his strength, Xijing was in front of him, but he never took a step.
The 40,000 Right Route Army bloodied Xijing City, and the desperate resistance of Changhe soldiers only slightly delayed the capture of Xijing, but it was far from being stopped.
Emperor Nagawa Tokugawa Kenseki, at noon, dressed in white clothes, exuded stomp feet, and led hundreds of officials out of the palace to surrender.
The surrender came suddenly, and the officers were in a hurry, they didn't expect that the soldiers of Nagawa were still resisting, and even many of the people of Nagawa spontaneously joined the resistance team, which brought them a lot of trouble, but the emperor himself surrendered first.
After a period of chaos, Yu Huahe was quickly accepted into the city and accepted the surrender.
This made many people dissatisfied, but there was no way, it is said that after taking the city gate, Yang Yu fainted. The accompanying military doctor said that he was overtired, and last night he was drenched in rain all night, and the blood and qi of the battle were moved, and his body couldn't stand it.
Yang Yu fainted, the supreme commander of the army was Yu Huaji, even if the Su soldiers were dissatisfied, they could have Yu Huatong's support, or because of Huahe's surrender. In fact, even if Yang Yu didn't faint, the supreme commander was nominally Yu Huaji, but in that case, everyone would definitely automatically ignore this fact.
In short, the biggest hero of the Western Expedition, Yang Yu, who almost single-handedly changed the situation of the Changhe War, did not appear at the surrender ceremony.
The capture of Xijing, the surrender of the Emperor and the Emperor, Yu Hua and the great joy of the hope, even if he has a small mistake (the lives of 200,000 soldiers, he is only a small mistake), it is estimated that he can make up for the merit after returning.
The complacent Yuhua and ordered Tokugawa Jianshi to give an order to Zuo Jiaten, who was still resisting outside the city, to stop resisting and surrender immediately, but unexpectedly, there was no response after the messenger went, and the Zuo Jiaten army stopped attacking, but did not surrender, but there were faint signs of withdrawal.
Now Yu Huahe is panicked again, now the Changhe army is all in the hands of Zuo Jiateng, if he refuses to surrender and supports the army to stand on his own, it will be a big trouble. Yu Hua urgently ordered Yin Wancheng to make sure that he must completely annihilate the Zuo Jiateng army, otherwise he would not let the left army enter Xijing.
Yin Wancheng only smiled bitterly after hearing this, this is the eldest prince, he took 200,000 troops and annihilated them all, but now he ordered himself to take 60,000 tired soldiers to annihilate 200,000 people.
There is no way, the official level crushes people to death, even if people are not in every way, there is a good old man, who is the rightful generalissimo of the Western Expedition. Yin Wancheng's suicide note was written, and he was ready to die in battle, and the news brought by the herald who came from afar saved his life.
After Emperor Dexing of the Great Liang received the news of the annihilation of the Middle Route Army, he was furious, and after learning the military situation of the other two Route Army, he quickly dispatched the border army and the government army to the nearest place as quickly as possible, and quickly assembled an army of 300,000 to march westward.
When Zuo Jiaten learned the news, he looked up to the sky and sighed and surrendered.
At this point, Emperor Nagawa and the main force have surrendered, and Nagahe was incorporated into Daliang only with an edict from Emperor Dexing, and the western expedition completed the intended goal.
However, in this western expedition, due to the rash advance of Yu Huaji's light enemy, Daliang lost 200,000 elite soldiers, and his combat power was greatly damaged, which laid a hidden danger for the changes in northern Xinjiang and the decline of national strength.
However, Yang Yu's battle is far from over......
