Chapter 426: Hold a Portal

"What about the Cavalry?"

"Withdraw first!" Lin Duwei said angrily. If it weren't for the people of the Xiao Cavalry who slipped away first, how could he have held it up.

"Evacuate first? Strange, could it be that the King of Qi was willing to give up the East Gate to Zhao Xun? In this way, wouldn't it make Zhao Xun even more unscrupulous! Yang Shan's brows tightened.

"Let's go, the whole army accelerates, let's get the east gate back!" Yang Shan didn't think much about it, and immediately ordered.

More than 1,000 meters away, within easy reach. Qian Niu Wei and Jin Wujun met. The same is 10,000 soldiers, Qianniuwei is cavalry, but now there are 4,000 horseback, waiting on the East Gate Avenue, 6,000 soldiers with bows and arrows, on the city wall to point directly at the galloping Jinwu army infantry.

"Who are you? Stop now! Zhao Mang was the first to roar.

Yang Shan waved his hand, and the 10,000 soldiers immediately stopped. The people of the entire land of several miles from the east gate have already been cleaned, leaving only a piece of flying dust. But in the distance, there are still some bold ones who are watching.

"The champion general and the people of the left prime minister are going to fight?" One exclaimed.

"It's been called around, and it's still us who suffer." The second child of the first shop said helplessly.

"Hey, you say, who's going to win this time? What about the people who are the generals? Or is it someone on the left? ”

"The people of the left phase, although the generals have outstanding military achievements, most of these soldiers are just recruits who have been trained for less than a month, and Jin Wujun is an old soldier." One said calmly.

"That's not necessarily, you know, although Jin Wujun is an old pawn, he is not a veteran of a hundred battles who has participated in battles. But since the champion general took over, Qianniuwei has been trained strictly, and he has never deducted the salary of the soldiers. It is said that morale is very high. Besides, the champion general can still defeat the Tatar people with a few thousand battalions, can't he still settle these people? A young man who obviously admired Zhao Xun retorted.

No matter what others think, Yang Shan has already matched Zhao Mang, a distance of three hundred meters.

"Get out of here!" Zhao Mang said coldly. He saw the state of the other party's march, although it was far inferior to the Xiaoguo Army, but it was already much stronger than the new recruits of the Qianniu Guard. Fortunately, most of the recruits were on the city walls, and half of the cavalry behind them were knights of the Fury Blade Battalion.

"Get out of here? Haha, I heard you right! Here is my Jin Wujun handle, and it should be you who retreated! So, now, where did you come from, and where did you go back for me! Yang Shan laughed.

"Archer prepare!" Zhao Mang didn't bother to say more to him. Fight! Who's afraid of whom.

"You dare to do it?" Yang Shan's face changed, and he said angrily.

"Jin Wujun? Haha, I tell you, from today onwards, the east gate belongs to me Qianniuwei. If you want to fight, then fight to the death! But can the general afford to do so? In the Xiaoguo army, there are a lot of things to be afraid of, but they are not afraid of death! There is no shortage of warriors. Now Qianniuwei is the same, either quit or die here! Zhao Mang said coldly. The east gate must be taken by Zhao Xun, and it must not be lost.

"Good! Good! Good! The little Qianniuwei also dared to be so arrogant. This Luoyang City is not the time for you to call the shots. Now, get the hell out of the east gate or ......"

"Shoot the arrows!" Zhao Mang didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, and gave an answer.

Qianniuwei's combat power is far inferior to that of the Jin Wu Army, but their obedience is definitely the best among the Luoyang City Army. Zhao Mang gave an order, above the city wall, under the city wall, more than 10,000 arrows flew like black clouds, and then covered down.

"Woo Woo ......"

More than 10,000 arrows did not hit an enemy army, not because the shooter was inaccurate, but because Jin Wujun was outside the range, even if it did not hit Jin Wujun, it also made Jin Wujun's face stiffen. The people watching the battle around were even more shocked, Qianniuwei took the lead, does this mean that the war is about to start? The world is going to be in chaos?

"Do you really fire arrows?" Yang Shan said with a pale face.

Zhao Mang sneered: "I said, from today onwards, the east gate will belong to us." We want to take the East Gate, unless we die. How? To fight or not to fight? By the way, this general, think about it before making a decision, be careful not to repeat the back path of the Ti Cavalry, and be careful that the whole family dies! ”

"You ......" Yang Shan's face was extremely ugly. If you don't fight, it's hard to reply to the order of the left minister. Let's fight, not to mention whether you can settle the other party, that is, if you settle the other party, can you settle Zhao Xun, the murderous king?

For a while, neither Zhao Mang nor Yang Shan moved. Zhao Mang doesn't care, but Yang Shan has a hard time choosing.

"Captains, what do you think should be done?" Yang Shan asked.

"One qiē obeys the general's orders!" Several lieutenants replied in unison. Just kidding, we are small people, but we don't dare to oppose Zhao Xun, the butcher. But as long as the general gives an order, whether it is a battle or a retreat, we should obey it. Anyway, we are acting on orders, and it is you, the general, who make the decision. In case Zhao Xun retaliates, it will be you on top.

"Nima, it's not a good thing, everyone is cunning like a ghost." Yang Shan scolded secretly. But the subordinates answered without error at all, but they were extremely obedient.

"To kill or not to kill? Damn, I should have asked Xiangye how to solve this situation. Isn't it advantageous to fight with Zhao Xun! Yang Shan was entangled.

Just when Yang Shan was unable to decide, a shrill voice came from the north: "The Holy Decree has arrived!" ”

"Whew! Finally solved my problem! Divine decree? I'm afraid it's aimed at here, but I should get out of trouble this time. Yang Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

Not only Yang Shan, but even the soldiers behind Yang Shan also breathed a sigh of relief. Fighting with Qianniuwei, if it was before, Jin Wujun would have liked to make the other party look good, but now, they really don't dare.

As soon as Xu Xi arrived at the east gate, he saw the two armies facing each other, although he didn't know the situation, but when he saw that the banner of Qianniuwei was already standing above the east gate, he felt a little in his heart. Because of the last announcement, Zhao Xun gave him a lot of gold coins, which made him show favor to Zhao Xun. Now it's just right, this time I can help Zhao Xun once.

"Generals, what are you?" Xu Xi came to the middle army of the two armies and asked with a smile.

Zhao Mang said: "It turned out to be Father-in-law Xu, Father-in-law Xu has a task?" We will make a way for Grandpa Xu. ”

Xu Xi shook his head and smiled: "It turned out to be General Zhao of Qianniuwei, there is no need to do this, I am here to give you an order this time." As he spoke, he raised the holy decree in his hand.

Zhao Mang was stunned, and then knelt on the ground to receive the order.

Seeing that Yang Shan on the other side did not move, and there was even a trace of disdain, Gonggong Xu's face was ugly for a while, and then he smiled again.

"General Qianniu Wei Zhao takes the order!"

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Now the four seas are calm............ Qianniu Wei restored his old post and was stationed at the east gate. Go up and down Qianniuwei, don't forget the responsibility of guarding the city, admire! ”

"General Zhao, take the order!"

After the three long live calls, Zhao Xun resulted in the holy decree of Gonggong Xu, of course, nearly a hundred gold coins are indispensable.

"Okay, my mission has been completed, and this place will be handed over to General Zhao. If anyone refuses to accept it, it will be a bully, and General Zhao can kill him on the spot! Father-in-law Xu glanced at Yang Shan coldly and said with a smile.

"Thank you Gonggong Xu for your advice!"

"On the other side, do you hear it, Qianniuwei is the east gate guard. ! Zhao Mang waved the holy decree in his hand and sneered.

"Let's withdraw, Captain Lin, you immediately contact Zuo Xiang and see what Xiang Ye says." Yang Shan said coldly.

Jin Wujun's follow-up men and horses were intercepted by the second right wing of Qianniuwei before they could defeat the east gate. There are quite a few Jin Wu troops, and there are more than Qianniuwei, but there are still more than 10,000 Praetorian Guards standing beside Qianniuwei.

Murong wanted to intervene, but after getting his subordinate Liang Ba to withdraw, he then decided not to go out again, and let Zhao Xun and Situ Lei go against each other, anyway, he had already lost his first move. Then he took the guards and rushed to the eastern city.

Among the sixteen guards, the Jin Wu Army, the Xiao Cavalry Army and the Qianniu Guard (all divided into left and right guards) are different from the other ten guards. The other ten guards are all regular field armies, with a maximum of 50,000 in peacetime, and can be divided into government troops under their banners in wartime, and even temporarily expanded the army. And these six guards are stationed in Kyoto and guard the entry into the city. The three armies each guarded one side, but Qianniuwei did not have a backstage, so the side that should have been in charge of them was divided between the Jin Wu Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army under the command of Zuo Xiang and King Qi.

It is precisely because of the lack of responsibilities that he will not be able to reap the benefits and receive the supplies he deserves, which is also the reason why Qianniuwei has insufficient manpower and the least amount of silver.

When Murong Cheng arrived in Dongcheng, Jin Wujun, Qianniuwei, and Jin Wujun were holding each other, and the two sides did not give in to each other, and they had the intention of fighting to the death. Especially Qianniuwei, it was completely different from before, as if he wished that Jin Wujun would kill him.

"Qianniuwei has changed a lot! It seems that Zuo has put a lot of effort into this Qianniuwei. Dongcheng, it's time to let it out. Zhao Xun, the tiger out of the cage! Murong Cheng said bitterly.

"His Royal Highness King Qi? How did you end up here? ”

King Qi turned around and smiled: "Luoyang City is about to go to war, how can I not come?" Zuo Xiang, are you ready to fight them? This Zhao Xun is not an ordinary person! ”

What appeared from Murong Cheng's side was naturally Situ Lei, who had just arrived, and when Situ Lei saw the situation in front of him, his face was also extremely unsightly.

Qianniuwei has really grown up, which means that Zhao Xun is getting stronger and stronger. It's not that Situ Lei is afraid of the other party, it's just that this Zhao Xun doesn't talk about the rules at all. It's a hedgehog, and if you slap him, he'll swoop your hands full of holes. For this kind of hooligan who doesn't care about anything and doesn't talk about any rules, Situ Lei is really speechless.

War? If there is a war, the happiest person is His Royal Highness King Qi beside him. No war? He couldn't stand it.

Seeing the depressed look on Situ Lei's face, Murong Cheng smiled and said, "What? This little question stumped our left phase? If they really want to fight, they are definitely not the opponents of the left minister. By the way, aren't there still two armies and four guards under the command of Zuo Xiang outside the city? Although it was formed from the ground up, it would be of great help if it really had to be fought. You see, it only took Zhao Xun less than a month to train Qianniuwei like this, and the two armies and four guards who have been trained for almost a year should be stronger than this. “

Situ Lei's face became even more ugly, speaking of which, his newly formed two armies and four guards were still broken up in the past to suppress the rebellion in Xuzhou. Although it took more than half a year to recruit soldiers and train for eight or nine months, he knew that his subordinates were not as good as these Qianniuwei.

"Xiangye, General Yang Shan has sent someone!" A soldier whispered.

"Yang Shan sent someone here? Didn't I let him take over the East Gate? Is something wrong? Situ Lei frowned and muttered to himself.

"Let him come!"

"Lin Sen, the subordinate captain of the Jin Wu Army, has seen Zuo Xiang!" After Lin Duwei saw Situ Lei, he saluted respectfully.

"Anyway, what did Yang Shan ask you to do?" Situ Lei felt that things were not going well.

"Back to Xiangye, thousands of guards suddenly occupied the east gate, the Xiao cavalry took the lead in evacuating, and our department was then driven away. Immediately afterwards, our army and Qianniuwei were based in the east gate, and Qianniuwei even suppressed the position with a rain of arrows. Later, it was rumored in the palace that the responsibility of guarding the east gate was handed over to Qianniuwei in the public. General Yang asked me to ask for instructions, what should I do now? ”

"Divine decree? Damn it! The emperor knew about these things, and gave the east gate to Zhao Xun? Situ Lei's face was extremely ugly for a moment.

"Give Yang Shan an order and let them withdraw!" Situ Lei said depressedly.

Judging from the current situation, Zhao Xun has been prepared! One step too late.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, the emperor has sent a decree! This time, you've miscalculated! ”

"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops!" Situ Lei ordered angrily again. With that, he turned and left.

After Murong Cheng heard about the situation, his face gradually became gloomy...... He didn't care that Zhao Xun took over Dongcheng, but that the emperor was also involved...... He knew that, in comparison, the emperor probably wanted to get rid of him more than the more powerful Situ Lei. Because he is a royal family, he has a direct impact on the throne.

In the eyes of the emperor, Situ Lei can be a powerful minister, but he does not dare to rebel lightly, but the royal family of King Qi is very likely to pull the emperor off the horse. Therefore, Murong Cheng is more threatening in the emperor's heart.
