Chapter 269: Dead Guard
When the words fell, ten people walked out of the team. Pen ΔΩ Fun Pavilion Ω.
"Send her back to Yangsan!"
"I'm not going back!"
"Nonsense! This is the battlefield! Not a place for women! ”
"Who said women can't come! There are women in the team of the Five Phoenix Pavilion! Dye Xian gritted his teeth and argued.
"Don't look down on women, I have killed no fewer Western Xia soldiers than your personal guard captain!"
"Send her back to Yangsan!" Wang Yan repeated the order, and the secret guards of the palace surrounded the dyed immortals, in order to deal with the dyed immortals.
"Miss Dye, please go back to Liangshan with your subordinates."
"I'm not going back!" The dying immortal gritted his teeth and roared, turning his head to Wang Yandao.
"Wang Yan, you don't have the right to let me go back!"
Wang Yan turned around, walked up to the dyed fairy step by step, sneered and looked at her, and then slapped her on the neck with a palm in her panic, knocking her unconscious.
Wang Yan didn't have the patience to reason with her now, he had more than 2,000 of his subordinates dead, and he was holding back a breath of anger in his stomach.
Wang Yan tied the hands of the dyed immortals with a rope, carefully checked the team, and asked all the people with face armor to take off their face armor! Then her female guard was screened out and handed over with her to the dark guard.
Dye Xian didn't bring all her four female guards, only one of them, and took off her face armor, Wang Yan looked quite familiar, after all, the four girls under her had been imprisoned by herself for a while.
With the second girl, Wang Yan directly replaced the hemp rope with iron cuffs, handed the key to the secret guard, and told her to open it when she went up the mountain, and with the female guard there, things became much simpler.
After tidying up the soldiers and horses, the group rushed out from the Broken Dragon Pass, first went to the dense forest where the mole was stationed, took him and Sun Qin with them, vacated one, and handed over the carriage to the dark guard for the dyed immortals.
The dark guard took the dyed fairy and the female guard back to Liangshan, and Wang Yan and the others went straight to the mouth of the gourd.
After traveling for half a day, I met with a dozen riders, and after I learned about it, my face suddenly sank to the bottom, and what I was worried about was still born...
"Last night, a large number of Western Xia troops suddenly appeared outside the camp, about more than 10,000 people, storming the camp, General Zhang Zhao led the army to fight to the death, let me wait for my brothers to go to the rescue!"
The cavalry who reported the news was gone, and went to close the gate to ask for help.
Wang Yan gave the order to march quickly, and 5,000 people rushed with all their might, and at sunset, they rushed to the mouth of the gourd.
Hulukou is the name of this canyon, because after entering the entrance, there are two spacious canyons that are connected, and the connection is narrow and gourd-shaped, so it is called Hulukou.
A thick smoke can be seen from the outside, there is a faint sound coming out of the valley mouth, the eagle guard led by Zhang Zhao is stationed at the mouth of the gourd, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Wang Yan only hopes that the mouth of the gourd is not lost, otherwise it is difficult to resist the footsteps of the Xixia people!
Walking into the valley, passing through the narrow valley road in the middle, and entering the small gourd valley, the sound of fighting became more real, lingering in the valley.
Wang Yan took the lead and led the army towards the camp at the mouth of the gourd.
The camp has indeed not fallen, but there have been heavy casualties, the eagle guard guarding the back door saw Wang Yan and others wearing Liang army clothes, and opened the gate without asking, and let people in.
The camp is built on the gourd mouth, the further forward it becomes, the narrower it becomes, and the narrowest place is the gourd mouth, which can only accommodate two carriages in parallel.
Walking out of the pass, it was a steep slope one zhang high, separating the front camp from the rear camp.
The front camp has been breached, and there are still 100 people not far away who are surrounded by the Western Xia Army, and the destruction is only in the morning.
Wang Yan carried the coiled dragon and intended to step forward to relieve the siege, but was stopped by the deputy general of the rear battalion.
"The general has an order, no matter what the soldiers and horses in the rear camp are, they must not go down from the high platform, and they cannot let the Western Xia army go out from here." The adjutant general gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were already blood-red, he wanted to lead people to rush over to fight with the Western Xia army, but the situation did not allow him to do so, if the Western Xia army broke through the gourd mouth, it would be the tens of millions of people in Daliang who would suffer.
This time, Wang Yan stopped, the surrounded Liang army was the bait to lure the Houying army out of the pass, he smelled the smell of danger, the Xixia army here is different from the Xixia army under the Broken Dragon Pass, similar to the Xixia army surrounded by the man in Chinese clothes, but here is obviously much stronger, their armor is flashing with cold light, and their bodies are full of bloody gas, this is the momentum that can only be forged after countless bloody battles, they are elite warriors.
This is the main force of Western Xia!
"I am the newly appointed vanguard officer of the State Pastor, my name is Wang Yan, and my task is to assist the Eagle Guard stationed here and delay the Western Xia Army for ten days."
Wang Yan said, handing the military order to the deputy general, but the deputy general did not answer, his eyes were still on the soldiers of the former battalion who were surrounded.
The surrounded Liang army was killed one by one, and finally the shouts of killing disappeared...
Wang Yan didn't expect to meet Zhang Zhao in this situation, he was closed, his head was tied to the banner of Western Xia, and his face was full of hideousness.
The lieutenant let out a roar of rage, and the eagle guards rushed to the high platform to block the road.
The Western Xia army did not attack immediately, the crowd parted, and a man in gold armor walked out of the formation.
"Get out of the way, and I'll spare you from death."
There was no movement on the platform.
"The five counties of Liangzhou have all fallen into my hands, and your parents, wives and children are also in my hands, get out of the way, I can leave your parents, wives and children alive."
There was a low roar from the high platform, and the words of the golden-armored man were inserted in the weakest place in the hearts of these people.
They didn't believe the nonsense of this golden-armored man at all, it was not the first time that Western Xia had invaded Daliang, they were thirsty for killing, and after breaking through the county seat, they killed on a large scale, raping * women, when did they spare the lives of the people?
"Forget it, let's go down with them." There was a hint of impatience in the golden-armored man's tone.
The Western Xia army moved, holding their shields and approaching the high platform.
The adjutant general stared at the Western Xia army and said solemnly to Wang Yan without looking back.
"Pioneer, bring your men up and defend with us! These are the elite of Western Xia who have not hidden private troops, and they can't be let go even if they die. After the adjutant general finished speaking, he paused and said in a deep voice. If I die in battle for a while, you will take my place, hold the high platform, and can't let the Xixia thieves pass, if you die, remember to explain this matter before you die. ”
Wang Yan nodded, let Yue Pengju lead people to rush up, and the Eagle Guard set aside a quarter of the space for Wang Yan to defend, and everyone was waiting for the moment when the Western Xia Army rushed up.
The low ladder slammed into the high platform, and countless Western Xia soldiers climbed up and rushed over.
The adjutant general led people to rush forward, kicked on the shield of a Western Xia soldier, and kicked the Western Xia soldier out with a strong thrust, followed by a slash on the neck of a Western Xia soldier who had just climbed up, splashing out a stream of blood.
For a time, there was a loud fighting in the valley, and the Western Xia army poured up to the high platform, and there were not many people standing on the high platform, so there were very few Western Xia troops who climbed the high platform, and they were all killed by the eagle guards guarding the high platform, and the Liang army had the upper hand for a while.
General Jinjia's face was a little ugly, he shook off the reins, and was about to step forward, but he was held down from behind.
A middle-aged man in dark gray armor walked up from behind, glanced at the high platform, waved his hand, and rushed out a group of people behind him, three hundred people, all shirtless, holding a hard bow in their hands, carrying three quivers behind him, at least thirty arrows in a barrel, and the three barrels added up to a hundred.
The Western Xia army took the initiative to get out of the way, allowing this group of archers to rush to a hundred paces in front of the high platform.
Wang Yan smashed the two Western Xia soldiers who were blocking him from the high platform with a stick, and the alarm bell suddenly sounded in his heart, and when he looked up, there was now a team of archers a hundred steps away, all of whom had bent their bows and arrows to aim this way.
"Beware of bows and arrows, everyone!"
As soon as the words fell, a burst of wind came from the sound of breaking wind, and the Western Xia troops who were blocking the front suddenly squatted down in unison.
The deputy general has been fighting, his sight was blocked by the Western Xia army and he did not show his bow and horseman, and before he could react when he heard Wang Yan's words, the Western Xia army in front suddenly squatted down, and then several cold lights entered the body, and the people were also taken back a few steps by arrows.
The eagle guards in the front row all fell to the ground weakly after several arrows, and the Western Xia army suddenly got up and rushed forward, and the battle line was closer than a zhang.
The shield soldiers retreated to the second line, and Wang Yan stood up and led people to kill them.
The adjutant general couldn't stop vomiting blood, his eyes had begun to drift, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointing at Wang Yan's back, and the next moment, his hand fell, and his eyes were fixed on Wang Yan's back.
The soldiers of the Eagle Guard did not have time to grieve, so they passed the body of the adjutant general back to the rear camp, and picked up their blades to meet the Western Xia army.
Everyone heard what the adjutant general just said, and after he died in battle, everyone listened to the orders of the new vanguard officer and held this place at all costs!
Wang Yan was at the front, and each blow swept away several people.
"Shield Defense!" At the moment when the Western Xia Army's knees were bent, Wang Yan shouted!
The shield soldiers guarding the second row swept the first row and raised the big shield, which clanked and clanged, blocking the crossbow arrows of the archers, and did not let the Western Xia army succeed several times, and the battle line was stalemate again.
The middle-aged man had been observing the battle situation, and when he saw that Liang Jun was prepared and the cavalry no longer worked, he let the bow rider retreat, tested the wind direction in the air with his hand, shook his head, and ordered.
"Fei Congyuan, with your people, within an hour, must defeat the Liang army on the high platform!"
"Hahaha, Great Commander, an hour is too much, my Fei Cong clan only needs a stick of incense!" After Fei Congyuan finished speaking, he walked to the front of his own clan army and led his people to rush towards the high platform.
Fei Congyuan is eight feet tall, and his body size is more than one circle larger than ordinary people, and Fei Congjun's warriors are also like this, his body is larger than the Xixia army next to him, and he is holding heavy weapons in his hands, mostly with iron rods and hammers, and he is wearing leather armor, which only covers the vital parts, and the rest of the places are exposed outside.
With the Fei Cong army joining the battle, the morale of the Western Xia army increased again.
Wang Yan noticed the changes in the Western Xia Army, saw Fei Congyuan ascend to the high platform, met Fei Congyuan's eyes, and saw the hideous look on his face.
With a wave of force, a Western Xia army was sent flying, Fei Congyuan stretched out his hand violently, grabbed the person in the air, and then let go of his hand, the person fell into the crowd, Fei Congyuan's face showed a touch of fanaticism, and walked towards Wang Yan.
The Western Xia army and the Liang army stopped fighting, the Western Xia army retreated a kilometer away, and Fei Congyuan walked out of the crowd, holding a three-foot-long hexagonal nail iron rod in his hand.
Fei Congyuan glanced at Wang Yan, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly rushed forward like a gust of wind!
