Seeing this, several grassroots officers in the forbidden army hurriedly ordered their soldiers to stabilize the formation and not panic.

However, the imperial forbidden army was a newly defeated army, and its morale was originally low. Emperor Zheng Yao changed commanders twice, which made his morale even more depressed. The newly appointed veteran Bai Wenbo originally planned to rely on the Tongguan Trench to easily win a few small battles first, and slowly reorganize the team and improve morale. But I didn't expect that the first battle was broken through Tongguan by Youyan's army and entered, and now there is a fierce battle, and the outcome is still unknown.

The front of the forbidden army of the imperial court had just barely mustered up the courage to fight to the death with the Youyan army, but behind him, there was a long-standing and prestigious marshal Dai Luanxiang, and there was a faint intention to take refuge in his words.

In this way, the rare morale of the forbidden army inevitably received a serious blow, not only did they no longer continue to fight forward, but dozens of timid soldiers threw down their weapons and deserted.

In fact, in addition to the four of Dai Luanxiang, together with the guards left by Qiu Yizhi, there are only about 80 people in total. As long as the officers and soldiers have a responsible commander and a lieutenant who leads the troops and horses of the headquarters, they can capture him in one fell swoop, and they can drive him away if they are not good.

However, Dai Luanxiang has a prestige in the army, and there are many people in the forbidden army who are dissatisfied with the imperial court.

At this moment, Bai Wenbo, the veteran general in charge of the operation, heard the news that Dai Luanxiang appeared in the rear army, and immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, left the primary task of the command in front of the pass, and led a few personal soldiers to the back of the battle.

There were too many strange things that happened in today's war, Bai Wenbo was numb, and he didn't have the heart to understand the cause of the matter, he just wanted to be able to send this matter away as soon as possible, so he opened his mouth and scolded loudly: "Who is here to deceive people's hearts, don't silence me, otherwise it will be difficult to escape the ruthlessness of military law!" ”

He has always been known for his strict management of the army, and when he gave an order, no one in the ranks of the forbidden army dared to shout loudly, and he suddenly fell silent.

Bai Wenbo drove his horse forward again, and in the silence, he said to Dai Luanxiang: "This is a bloody battlefield, why don't Marshal Dai retreat quickly, so as not to be suspicious of the melon field and plums?" ”

The relationship between Dai Luanxiang and Bai Wenbo is complicated.

Bai Wenbo is a veteran, and he was Dai Luanxiang's superior at the beginning; But Dai Luanxiang made outstanding achievements, and then became Bai Wenbo's superior. Moreover, Dai Luanxiang likes to win a decisive battle with the enemy in battle, while Bai Wenbo pays attention to using the fortress of Jiancheng to wear down the strength of the enemy's army, and the two views are often at odds, but in fact, they are not in harmony.

Therefore, when Bai Wenbo held the military power here, he did not take the opportunity to embarrass Dai Luanxiang, which is very rare.

Dai Luanxiang also knew that Bai Wenbo was quite complaining about himself, and his temper was extremely explosive, so he was very polite to himself to speak like this, so he carefully said: "Old General Bai is not harmed. Dai came to save the general. Now that the court is dark, traitors are in charge, and Zhongliang is framed, Dai is loyal to the master, but he ended up like this, which is the best evidence. And the prince of Youyan is wise and martial, why don't the old generals Bai follow his order to rebel and strike a counterattack to become a ......"

Dai Luanxiang was about to make a tirade and delay time, but was interrupted by Bai Wenbo in a loud voice: "Marshal Dai's kindness is appreciated by the old man." It's just that the old man has sold his life for the court for more than 50 years, and this old bone is not as good as Marshal Dai's talent and loyalty to the country, and Zheng Rong may not be able to see it; Naturally, the old man had no intention of touching him. Therefore, the marshal does not need to say much, please leave quickly, don't miss the bright future! ”

Dai Luanxiang listened to Bai Wenbo's cynicism, but he was not angry, and said: "Dai Mou is a normal person, the old general Bai and the soldiers in the forbidden army, I don't know which one I don't know?" If you don't go to the end of the mountains and rivers and all your thoughts are lost, how dare you betray the court? Dai's words still hope that General Bai will think twice! With that, he simply dismounted and took a deep bow in the direction of Bai Wenbo and the forbidden army.

What Dai Luanxiang does on weekdays, of course Bai Wenbo knows - even if the whole forbidden army rebels, and only one general is left to meet the enemy alone, then Dai Luanxiang is this general - as Dai Luanxiang said, if it is not really when the mountains and rivers are exhausted and all thoughts are lost, Dai Luanxiang will never surrender to the enemy.

Thinking of this, Bai Wenbo was speechless for a while.

At this time, Dai Luanxiang's mother flashed out from the side on a horse, and saluted on the horse: "Old General Bai, do you still recognize my old woman?" ”

Seeing this, Bai Wenbo exclaimed: "It turns out that the old lady is here!" Indeed, the old man was unexpected. With the resume of the old lady, why not persuade Marshal Dai to change his mind and regain his allegiance to the imperial court, presumably there must be a grace from the saint. ”

Dai Mu laughed loudly and said, "Old General Bai said it well! The one who persuaded my son Luan Xiang to change his mind was the old me. My son originally wanted to accompany the faint king to die together, but thanks to the old body forced him to die, he persuaded him to take refuge in the prince of Youyan! ”

When Bai Wenbo heard this, he replied.

I only heard Dai's mother continue: "My son Luan Xiang has always been arrogant and arrogant, and he has some disagreements with the old general Bai, which is a common thing, and there is no need to deny it. But the old general and the old man who died are friends, why not look at the face of this dead ghost and listen to the old man's persuasion? As she spoke, Dai's mother began to talk about reason.

Dai's mother has extraordinary qualifications, one year older than Bai Wenbo, Bai Wenbo is inconvenient to interrupt her words directly, and was about to find a stubble to answer the call, but listened to the report of the soldiers around him: "Old General Qiyu, the reinforcements of the Youyan Army have arrived, more than 50,000 people, carrying a cloud ladder, and are preparing to storm Tongguan, and please ask the old general to decide!" ”

When Bai Wenbo heard this, he was anxious, and he couldn't care about any face, so he ordered ruthlessly: "All the troops listen to the order!" Dai Luanxiang and others are all criminals of the imperial court, don't listen to their demagoguery! He also ordered a lieutenant beside him to say, "You order five hundred soldiers and horses, and you will take down Dai Luanxiang and others, but you must treat each other with courtesy, and you must not hurt their lives!" ”

In all fairness, Bai Wenbo also felt that it was unreasonable for Emperor Zheng Yao to deal with Dai Luanxiang, and he didn't want to capture Dai Luanxiang by himself.

After listening to Bai Wenbo's order, the captain ordered five hundred elite soldiers, hurriedly lined up the formation, and killed Dai Luanxiang and the others.

Dai Luanxiang saw that the situation was not good, and was about to lead his mother and children and more than 80 Youyan sergeants to retreat for a while, but he heard Dai Song next to him stand up and say: "Father, look at the child's means." ”

Dai Song stepped forward and took a bamboo pole from the side of the saddle that had been prepared in advance, the front of which was cut in half diagonally with a sharp blade, and made into the shape of a proposed spear.

He held the bamboo spear in his hand, aimed slightly, and threw the bamboo spear in his hand with a light sigh of his ape arm.

Dai Song's strength is extremely strong, he can pick up the stone lion of three or four hundred catties with his bare hands, this bamboo spear was thrown by him with all his strength, and it was really extraordinary, with a strange whistling sound, and it was inserted into the chest of the leading captain.

The lieutenant was also a tiger's back, but he could not withstand the impact of this blow, and fell from his horse with a backward lean, and he had already lost his breath.

Seeing that Dai Song's methods were so powerful, the army couldn't help but be shocked, and none of them dared to step forward standing in place.

Dai Song did not hesitate, took out another bamboo spear and threw it in the direction of the forbidden army.

One of the officers in the forbidden army who was in a school uniform, was then hit by a bamboo spear, and he also fell off his horse, spitting blood from his mouth and crying for his life.

Dai Song saw that when he first went into battle, he showed his skills, and he was very excited, and took out a bamboo spear, and raised his eyes to look for the general in the forbidden army array, so as to take his life.

Seeing this, the inspectors, captains, and lieutenant generals who were riding on horses in the forbidden army were all shocked, dismounted, and secretly ordered their soldiers to take out bows and arrows, and to shoot Dai Luanxiang, Dai Song and others into hedgehogs first.

Dai Song was still looking for a sniper target, but his father Dai Luanxiang had already seen the movement of the forbidden army, and hurriedly ordered everyone to retreat and leave the range of the official army's bows and arrows.

Dai Song didn't dare to disobey the order, so he casually found a thousand generals in the front row, and after throwing a bamboo spear and killing him, he took out a bamboo spear and held it in his hand, and personally cut off the queen for his father.

The forbidden army has seen Dai Song's ability, but they are afraid that they will go to the west immediately, how dare they follow the pursuit. By the time they took out their bows and arrows and were ready to shoot, Dai Luanxiang and the others had already left the range and fled into the town on the side of Tongguan, never to be found.

Dai Luanxiang stirred up trouble behind the forbidden army, although he did not persuade a single officer and soldier to defect, but it also really shook the heart of the forbidden army.

The Youyan vanguard led by the rebellious general Cui Nan immediately felt the pressure on the front drop sharply, so they pushed the battle line forward a lot in one go.

Bai Wenbo, a veteran general who was originally preparing to re-ascend the Tongguan wall and command the frontal defense, found that the battle situation was not good, and hurriedly ordered all the reserves under the pass to be put into battle. The strength of the forbidden army increased, and the front was naturally stabilized.

However, the strength of the Youyan army into Tongguan was also strengthened, and it slowly gained a firm foothold, and the imperial forbidden army could no longer squeeze the Youyan army outward.

Although the war was developing in favor of Youyan's army, it was once again at a stalemate.

At this time, the 50,000 reinforcements led by Zheng Miao and others finally arrived at Tongguan.

Youyan's army is good at field warfare and clumsy in siege, although it has undergone targeted siege training before, but the action still seems a little clumsy, and it took a lot of effort to erect the ladder, but the ladder transported has been damaged by half.

However, the Youyan army that came to reinforce had just recuperated, and Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan, offered a generous reward of "one hundred taels of gold for those who ascend first, and the general of Fengzhonglang", and the morale was even higher. As soon as the ladder was erected, they raised their shields in one hand and held a sharp blade in the other, climbed the ladder and climbed towards Tongguan.

The crossbow that the Youyan army was proud of was not idle, taking advantage of its long range and strong power, and constantly shooting at Tongguan - and whether it could shoot or not, at least it would shoot the forbidden army guarding Guanshang so that they couldn't raise their heads.

In this case, it stands to reason that reserves should be immediately sent up the city wall to reinforce the troops.

But the reserves under the veteran Bai Wenbo have all been sent to resist the vanguard of Youyan Dao, and there are no soldiers available under him. In desperation, Bai Wenbo had no choice but to order the guards who condescendingly attacked Youyan's vanguard on the west side of the wall, and returned to the east side to strengthen the frontal defense.

In this way, the vanguard led by the rebellious general Cui Nan was less threatening from overhead, and was more unscrupulous, and broke through to the west of Tongguan with vigor, and the progress of the battle expanded instantly.

At the same time, the army of Youyan's frontal attack, after paying considerable casualties, finally climbed the Tongguan city wall, and without saying a word, picked up the sword and slashed it around.

At this point, Bai Wenbo, the veteran general who commanded the imperial military in Tongguan, had reached the point where there were no soldiers available, and in desperation, he had to shout, personally handle the treasure knife, and lead his own soldiers to fight with the Youyan army above Tongguan.

The main general entered the battle, and the morale of the court officers and soldiers on the wall rose slightly, and they were barely evenly matched with the enemy army.

However, the imperial court officials and troops have become the end of the strong crossbow, and the Youyan army is constantly climbing the city wall, this Tongguan fortress that has never fallen for hundreds of years, is already in danger.
