Chapter 292: Accident
Wang Yan swept the four Western Xia soldiers who rushed forward and flew out, bringing down more than a dozen people in a row, the defenders seized the opportunity to step forward and resulted in the lives of those Western Xia soldiers, an hour of fierce attack, the battle still ended in the defeat of the Western Xia, the mountain pass once again held on, the shield soldiers poured up from under the pass and pressed against the wall, this time, the Western Xia army did not attack continuously, and the defeated team returned to the camp for half a day without moving.
Wang Yan dragged the coiled dragon to the back, no matter what the Western Xia army thought, he would not take it lightly, many defeats occurred in the moment before the victory, because at that moment the winner would become careless because of the dawn.
Guan Lan left, walked for a while, Guan Ping woke up and replaced Yue Pengju, Guan Ping was guarding by the wall, Wang Yan returned to the Guan Building, Yue Pengju snored like thunder on the soft couch.
Took out the food from the charcoal stove, hastily filled his stomach, did not continue to sleep, just slept peacefully, and recovered most of his energy, at this time it was the second half of the night, the sea of stars was bright and very beautiful, looked at the stars for a while, walked to the wall, and turned his attention to the Xixia military camp below.
The Xixia soldiers patrolled outside the camp with torches, and they could only see the light moving in front of the camp from the close, unlike yesterday, tonight's Xixia military camp was a little more quiet, and there was too much light.
Wang Yan was blowing a cool breeze on the wall, listening to the commander report the casualties, and in the past two days, many soldiers have been lost, the number of dead is close to 4,000, plus more than 2,000 wounded soldiers, less than 4,000 can fight normally.
The Western Xia army killed more than 20,000 people, and the Liang army died less than 4,000, which is a very remarkable record.
The soldiers guarding the pass were very happy, because they killed several times the enemy, but Wang Yan was not happy, because the gap between the two armies in terms of numbers was still much worse, and there were only 100,000 Xixia troops stationed under the mountain, even if 20,000 were killed in battle, there were 80,000 people, minus the wounded soldiers, there were 70,000 people, but there were only less than 4,000 wounded soldiers on the pass.
However, it was that Xixia stopped the attack and surprised Wang Yan, what conspiracy were they planning, or did they receive any orders? Wang Yan thought of a lot of possibilities, and felt that the most likely should be the order from above, the possibility of the withdrawal order was the greatest, the granary was burned, and it was destined that the Western Xia army would not stay in Liangzhou for too long, and it would not be able to take the Broken Dragon Pass, and Liangzhou could not hold it at all.
No matter what happened in the Western Xia barracks, it was always good for the defenders not to attack, and the longer the stalemate lasted, the better it would be for their side.
The red sun was rising, the patrolling Western Xia soldiers retreated to the camp, the sun climbed over a long line overhead, and unconsciously, when it was time to set, the whole day, the Western Xia army did not move.
When the sun set, Wang Yan looked at the Xixia military camp and sighed.
"The Western Xia army has retreated! Liang Nu should now be being shipped to the country. ”
As soon as the words fell, a cold question sounded in my ears.
"How do you know?" Guan Lan's voice was crisp, mixed with some coolness, which was very refreshing.
"Only this reason can explain the actions of these Western Xia troops, they do not retreat, do not attack, block the mountain roads tightly, the intention is already obvious, they want to nail the Liang army to the pass, so that they can transport Liang Nu back to Western Xia safely, this is a great achievement, they failed to take Liangzhou, Liang Nu dare not make any more mistakes." Wang Yan looked at the closure and said in a low voice.
"I didn't believe that you killed Tuoba Jinxiong before, but now I believe it, I just got the secret protection, since last night, the Western Xia army began to transport Liang Nu out of the city, it should be to Western Xia." Guan Lan's eyes were slightly wet, and her face was unwilling.
"It's come to this, there's nothing that can be done." Wang Yan sighed, turned around and looked at Guan Lan, this was the first time he looked at Guan Lan head-on, dressed in a military uniform, heroic, delicate facial features, beautiful, and comparable to the Liangzhou Oiran he saved, but he didn't expect Guan Ping's sister to be a big beauty, and his younger brother had eyes.
"I want to save them."
Wang Yan didn't wrinkle slightly when he heard this, and stared at Guan Lan up and down.
"If Liangzhou Mu said this to me in front of me, I would let him go, even if he brought everyone in the Guan, I wouldn't say a word, he went to save the people under his rule, no matter how he said it, as for what kind of price to pay, it was his choice, and you, just a guard captain of the Guan family, your responsibility is to protect the family of the Zhou Mu, you want to take people to save people, then you tell me what to do if the Xixia army under the Guan comes up?"
Wang Yan wanted to reject her directly, but when she thought that she was Guan Ping's sister, she could think of such a brainless thing, so she was not afraid that the family of Lord Zhou Mu would pick her skin? In order to make her have long eyes, Wang Yan crumpled the words and said to her.
"I'll only take a thousand people."
Hearing this, Wang Yanzhi had an urge to vomit blood, didn't she have a brain? Do you have to say it yourself?
"Take them to their deaths?"
Wang Yan said with a hideous face. "With your three-legged cat's skills, who can you beat! Why let them go with you to death! ”
"Then I can't watch them being taken to the Western Xia Kingdom, you are not a woman! You won't understand! Guan Lan roared at Wang Yan, turned around and rushed down the mountain pass.
I don't understand? I don't know better than you? Whether it is ancient or modern, when will a woman fall into the hands of an opponent will have a good end, I have seen it in my previous life, some women were captured by hostile people, the degree of misery is by no means comparable to this era, and I want to save them, but I am not cumin, and the family members of Qingkun in Guanli, if they have an accident, even if they save all the Liang women, there will be no good end.
"General, don't be like my sister, that's what she is..."
"Your sister is very kind, but she is a little impulsive, you heard what she said just now, go down and watch her, don't let her do stupid things."
Guan Ping nodded and went down.
Tonight there are some clouds in the sky compared to last night, looking at the white moon, a few shadows appear in my heart, I don't know how they are doing.
Yue Pengju woke up, he went to Guan Xia to take a bath, and came back refreshed, Wang Yan asked him to stand guard at Guan without the slightest carelessness.
It is not a comfortable thing for blood to condense on the body, and when I got off the pass, the bath room was on the side, and a soldier stepped forward to boil water for Wang Yan, but Wang Yan stopped him, took a cool cold shower, and planned to get dressed and go back to the close.
"General!"
From a distance, he saw Guan Ping riding a horse rushing towards this side, and the moonlight on his face was white and terrifying.
Guan Ping quickly rushed to Wang Yan, his expression was frightened as if he had seen a ghost, and he knelt down suddenly, Wang Yan frowned, and his heart suddenly gambled.
"What's wrong, tell me quickly."
"General, my sister her! My sister, she gathered a team of people and went out to save people along the secret passage! ”
Boom! Wang Yan made a footprint on Guan Ping's body, kicked him out a foot away, and said with a hideous face.
"What are you eating! What I told you! ”
Guan Ping struggled to get up from the ground, his voice choked.
"She promised me that I wouldn't be impulsive, so I went to have a meal, and she took someone away!"
"How many people did she bring?"
"Less than a thousand, including three hundred lightly wounded soldiers, general, my sister is going to die, please save her!"
"How long have you been gone?"
"It's been almost half an hour!"
Wang Yan was so angry that he almost crushed his back teeth, why was Guan Lan so willful!
"Can't go!" After a few breaths of silence, Wang Yan gritted his teeth and said.
"General!" Guan Ping gritted his teeth and said, his voice full of pleading.
"I'm sorry, I can't gamble with the family of the state pastor." As he spoke, his heart was uncomfortable, Guan Ping had been his deputy general for a while, during which he was born and died together, and he had already established a lot of feelings, but at the moment he refused to save his family.
After being silent for a long time, Guan Ping wiped a handful of tears and slowly stood up and said.
"General, I see." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Guan Ping's voice was sad and helpless, and it was sad to listen to, it seemed that Guan Lan was a very important family member to him.
"Wait!" Looking at Guan Ping's back, Wang Yan still couldn't help but shout at him.
"General, I understand, I'll go back and talk to my mother and let her be prepared."
"Don't talk about it yet." Wang Yan walked up to Guan Ping as he spoke, pushed his armor into Guan Ping's hands, and handed him over to him with Panlong.
"General, what are you..."
"I'll go to save your sister, you wear my clothes and go to the gate to stand guard, promise me that before I come back, the mountain pass must not be lost!"
After listening to Wang Yan's words, Guan Ping was stunned for three seconds, and then tears welled up.
"General, whether you save my sister or not, I recognize you as a big brother!"
Wang Yan slapped him on the head and said with a cold face.
"You and I have been born and died several times, you are already my brother, after I leave, you must guard the mountain pass!"
"Big brother, don't worry, if the Xixia thieves want to enter the customs, they must step over me!"
Wang Yan lowered his face after hearing this. "When you say that, I'm a little uneasy..."
Guan Ping's sad mood instantly stiffened, and his expression collapsed.
Wang Yan changed clothes with Guan Ping, came to the entrance of the secret passage, took his glaive knife, and walked out of the secret passage with his horse.
The secret passage is very long, and it takes half an hour to walk to the exit, which is a cave in the forest behind the mountain, and the exit is tightly covered by weeds, which is not easy to find.
Out of the secret passage, Wang Yan searched for traces, quickly determined the direction, and galloped towards the north.
Wang Yan didn't know that as soon as he left, Tuoba Ke personally led a team of people up the mountain, because the spies who were ambushed at the pass passed back that the beam that made the dragon mace disappeared from the pass, so he came up to see what was going on.
The team stopped outside the range of the bow and arrow, separated by a distance of dozens of zhang, looking towards the pass, there was really no Wang Yan's figure, and was thinking about whether to try to attack, when the shield soldiers on the wall suddenly parted, revealing Liang Cheng who was holding a dragon mace.
Tuoba Ke frowned, looked at it for a long time, and finally shook his head and turned the horse's head...
