Chapter 264 The Battle of Yanmen Pass (6)
Seeing that Laihong broke through successfully, Shibi and Elivershi, who had been sitting in the rear, did not express any surprise. Shi Bi nodded lightly and said: "This Imperial Forest Army of the Great Sui really lives up to its reputation, and it is close to these hundreds of people, and it has succeeded in breaking through!" It seems that the Han people are not as weak as we imagined! ”
Elivershe, who was next to him, was a little unconvinced, snorted, and said, "This can only be said that the armor they are wearing is too good!" If I were to put that fine armor on our steppe warriors, I would be able to do it with just a hundred men!" ”
Shi Bi didn't comment much on Eliver's words, just smiled faintly, but soon, the smile on his face disappeared. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info because Shibi saw that in the direction of Laihong's breakthrough, several men in white suddenly rushed out from among the Turks, one jumped up, but kicked several Turkic soldiers off their horses, and then grabbed the war horses and chased them in the direction where Laihong and the others fled! Shibi's brows were tightly locked, and he looked very unhappy! He naturally recognized the identities of those men in white, but they were the Goguryeo people who cooperated with them to besiege Yanmen Pass this time!
Originally, Shibi didn't look down on these Goguryeo people very much, because in Shibi's eyes, these Goguryeo people had no other skills except bragging, and some big men were playing with the needle and thread used by girls all day long! This sneak attack on the emperor of the Sui Dynasty was just to bring these Goguryeo people in passing! But now these Goguryeo people not only can't help, but they even dare to do something to the warriors under Shibi! Although those Turkic soldiers were only kicked off their horses, for Shibi, these Goguryeo people were undoubtedly slapping him in the face and insulting him greatly! Immediately, he shouted behind him: "Kang Shealy! ”
With Shibi's shout, among the group of Turkic warriors behind him, a tall, thin Turkic man rode out of the ranks, saluted Shibi, and shouted, "Great Khan! Konsheath is here! ”
This Kang Sheli is the number one general under Shi Bi, especially since Shi Shu Hu Xi's death, Kang Shali has become Shi Bi's most trusted subordinate. After Shibi shouted out Kang Sheli, his face was gloomy, and he stared closely at the Goguryeo people who rode away in front of him, and hummed: "I'll give you a thousand people, and take care of those Goguryeo people!" After the Yanmen Pass is breached, I want to see the heads of these Goguryeo people hanging on the Yanmen Pass! Remember! Not a single one is allowed to run! ”
"Yes!" Kang Xuanli did not have the slightest doubt about Shibi's order, and bowed to Shibi, and retreated directly.
And Eliver was also startled after listening to Shibi's order, turned his head to look at Shibi, and asked, "Big brother!" You, you're going to turn your face with the Goguryeo people? We've already torn our faces with the Han people here, and if we start another war with the Goguryeo people over there, I'm afraid we'll be too busy, right? ”
Shibi was disdainful of this, snorted coldly, and said, "Just Goguryeo? Since I dare to kill those Goguryeo dogs, I am not afraid of what he Goguryeo dares to say! Not to mention that Gao Yuan's old fox doesn't have that much courage! Even if he dares to declare war on us and wants to fight on our grassland, he still has to pass the Khitan and Ya levels first! Even if Gao Yuan could settle the Khitan and the Yan Ya, at that time, we would have already gotten what we wanted! When the time comes, simply hit Goguryeo in one go! Hmph, the dog emperor of the Han people can't beat Goguryeo, that's because he's stupid! Just a Goguryeo, our warriors on the grassland, it is easy to take it! ”
Hearing everything he said, Eliver naturally had nothing to say, nodded again and again, and at the same time smiled, and said, "Big brother! Then you must let me lead the troops to fight Goguryeo! Hey! I'm going to have a good time! ”
"Hahahaha! Can a little Goguryeo satisfy you? It's really unproductive! Rest assured! There will be a chance! Shi Bi also laughed at his brother's invitation, but patted his brother's shoulder happily, then turned his head, looked at Yanmen Pass, and said in a deep voice: "There will definitely be that opportunity!" ”
At this time, the battle in front of Yanmen Pass was already intensifying! Because of the oil, the ropes on the city wall also became very slippery, and the Turkic soldiers couldn't hold on to those ropes at all, so the Turkic soldiers under the city simply used short bows to shoot arrows at the top of the city, and at the same time, there were nearly fifty Turks, holding a huge log, shouting slogans, while slamming towards the gate! It's just that this gate has been specially processed, and the two doors alone are made of iron plates nearly a foot thick! Inside the gate, the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army firmly locked the gate with iron chains thick as their wrists, and used more than a dozen iron rods against the door, and at the same time, there were dozens of soldiers of the Royal Forest Army, using their bodies against the closed door! With so much protection, it's probably impossible for the Turks to knock the door open!
The confrontation between the two armies is still focused on the bow and arrow attack! Needless to say, the Turks are all good at bending bows and arrows, and although the walls of Yanmen Pass are high, it is difficult to block the short arrows of the Turks! And the archers on the head of the city occupy the advantage of the terrain, condescending, Yanmen Pass as a military fortress, the arrow reserves in the pass are also very sufficient, so in front of Yanmen Pass, this arrow up and down, almost intertwined into a black light curtain! It's just that the smell of blood brought by this light curtain is too heavy!
At the head of the city, Laihu'er, who had completely assumed the command of the city, frowned, sat on the high platform, staring at the situation on the battlefield ahead, although there were arrows everywhere, but Laihu'er was unmoved, as steady as Mount Tai! This move to protect the children is also a way to bring peace of mind to the defenders in the city, and it can be regarded as a way to stabilize morale!
Laihu'er sat steadily, but he was busy with the soldiers beside Laigo'er, and the long swords in their hands were waving around Laigo'er, helping Lai'er resist those flying arrows. It is precisely because of them that it is guaranteed that Laihu'er is not even injured on the battlefield!
"Ahh A shout sounded, but it was one of the personal soldiers who patronized to block the guard, but he noticed that he was negligent, and a stray arrow shot directly into his thigh! As soon as this pro-soldier was in pain, the whole person knelt directly on the ground, and in this way, it was also a vacancy in front of Laihu'er! At this moment, a stray arrow flew in from this void, and it flew directly towards Laihu'er! This scene shocked all the soldiers and generals to shout, and everyone rushed towards Laihu'er's side, wanting to block this arrow for Laihu'er!
"Smack!" Suddenly, a hand stretched out, and directly grasped the arrow firmly in his hand, and then looked at the owner of that hand, it was Lai Hu'er, who had been sitting firmly on the high platform before! In the face of everyone's stunned eyes, Lai Hu'er threw the arrow aside as if he had done something insignificant, suddenly stood up, and shouted in a deep voice: "Dugu Sheng! ”
"Ugh! The end will be! Hearing the call of Hu'er, Dugu Sheng, who had just gone to the city and was hiding among the generals, couldn't help but tremble. Just now, he made a big mistake and almost closed the door, Dugu Sheng also knew that he had made a mistake, so even if he came up, he kept hiding in the crowd and didn't dare to show up. But now Lai Hu'er is calling his name, in his mind, Lai Hu'er must be coming to settle accounts with himself, and he doesn't want to answer, but thinking about the means of Lai Hu'er, Dugu Sheng can't help but feel weak in his heart, so he can only come out honestly and salute Lai Hu'er, but he cautiously peeked at Hu'er's expression. Don't look at Dugu Sheng, who is also in his forties, but he looks like a child who has done something wrong.
It's a pity that Lai Hu'er didn't have any expression on his face at the moment, just nodded lightly and hummed: "Now go to the gate immediately and take out the artillery!" Not more, just three! Within the time of three incense sticks, it will be delivered to the city! If it's a little late, the two crimes will be punished both! ”
At first, Lai Hu'er didn't mention Dugu Sheng's mistake just now, and Dugu Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect Lai Hu'er to burst out with a sentence of "two crimes and punishment" in the end, which scared Dugu Sheng's head and couldn't help shrinking! He didn't dare to bargain with Laihu'er, since Hu'er's unrivaled character, Dugusheng didn't want to please him! Fortunately, although the time for these three incense sticks is a little tight, it is still in time, Dugu Sheng can't care about saying anything, he just turned around and rushed towards the pass, he didn't dare to delay time, this is the punishment of not completing the task, he didn't have the courage to taste it!
Artillery! Listening to Hu'er's order, the eyes of all the generals in the city lit up! Oh, yes! Why did you forget that there is such a good thing in Yanmen Pass! However, everyone was surprised by Lai Hu'er's order, he had been injured before, and now he had bandaged it, Sima Dekan stepped forward, hugged his fist at Lai Hu'er and said, "Come to the old general!" Why did General Dugu only come out with three artillery pieces? If the last general is not mistaken, there should be twenty artillery pieces in this Yanmen Pass! Why don't you take out those twenty artillery pieces together and let the Turks know how powerful our Great Sui is! ”
What Sima Dekan asked was also the question in the hearts of the generals, now that the Turks outside the pass are so dense, it is the time to let the artillery play its maximum effect, if all twenty artillery pieces are taken out, they will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the Turks! Lai Hu'er is a veteran of the battlefield, so he should naturally know this, how could he make this mistake?
Lai Hu'er shook his head, glanced at the generals, and finally explained: "Why doesn't the old man want to beat the Turks!" It's just that the offensive of the Turks in the past few days is not ferocious, because the Turks think that they can win easily, so in order to reduce casualties, they do not attack with all their strength! If we take out all the artillery, the Turks will suffer huge losses! Shibi will definitely be annoyed and angry, and order to go all out to tackle the problem! When the time comes, even if we have artillery in hand, we may not be able to hold it! Now all we have to do is hold off time! Three artillery pieces will only make Shibi think that we still have the strength to spare, but not enough for Shibi to go all out to tackle the problem! That's enough! ”
