Chapter 46 Raid on Kaiyang

Kaiyang (the name of the ancient county, located in the south of Shuocheng today) is a small county seat, the population of the county is only more than 2,000 households, as for the county seat of Kaiyang City is even more pitiful, a total of more than 1,000 households, more than 8,000 people, this time Xue Yantuo came very fast, most of the people in the city did not have time to escape, after being besieged for half a month, in the 15th year of Zhenguan October 14 was broken by more than 10,000 people of the ancient department of Baye, and more than 1,000 defenders were killed.

Although Kaiyang City is small, it is not rich, of course, it is the result of comparison with the county town in the interior of the Tang Dynasty, but for the ancient department of Baye, this Kaiyang City is simply like heaven, rich and oily, once the city is broken, how can it not grab a pass, and when attacking the city, due to the desperate resistance of the defenders, the ancient department of Baye lost nearly 3,000 people under Kaiyang City, once the city is broken, the red-eyed Baye Ancient Department immediately burned in Kaiyang City, and turned a good end of Kaiyang City into a hell on earth, for several days, The screams and cries in the city never stopped.

On October 20, the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, the sky was very overcast, the dark clouds in the sky blocked the brilliance of the stars and the moon, and the noisy Kaiyang City finally completely quieted down, except for one or two faint cries that came by chance, there was no other sound, and most of the people of the ancient tribes of Baye, who had been burned for four or five days, had fallen asleep at this time, only the more than 20 horsemen led by Chiada were still patrolling, there was no way, who let the tribe to which Chiada belonged suffered casualties in the siege battle, not to mention, even the tribal elders who led the team diedWithout the leader, the remnants of the deed can only carry out tiring tasks such as late-night patrols.

The Tang people are really rich, and the women are also tender and tender, and it is different when they are rubbed! As soon as Chiada thought of the woman he had snatched a few days ago, he couldn't help but feel hot, stretched out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, and his heart was full of fire, eager to rush back to the camp immediately, and then vent, but unfortunately he could only think about it, he didn't have the courage to do it when he disobeyed the military order, and he had no choice but to kick the war horse under his crotch boredly, planning to run wildly into the distance to vent his unsatisfied desires, but his wish was not realized at the end, Just as the horse was about to let go of his hooves and was about to gallop wildly, a feathered arrow shot out of the dark night with a strong roar, and immediately shot Chiada through the heart.

Chiada stood on his horse, looked down at the wound on his chest that kept spurting blood, but he didn't find the shaft of the arrow, the word "enemy attack" lingered around his lips for a while, but Chiada was unable to shout, his strong figure shook a little, and then he fell off the horse, and the torch in his hand rolled in the dry grass, which immediately ignited a fire, and at the same time, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance.

"Enemy attack!" "Enemy attack!" The frightened Qibu rangers turned their horses and rushed in the direction of the big camp, and shouted loudly, and in an instant, the military camps inside and outside Kaiyang City were all in chaos, and they didn't expect that the people of the ancient tribe of Baye, who were attacked at this time, shouted and screamed like headless flies.

Buxiao said, that magical arrow was naturally shot by Li Zhen, its purpose was just to startle the snake and take advantage of the chaos - Kaiyang City is small, unable to accommodate more than 10,000 cavalry of the Baye Ancient Department, at this moment most of the army of the Baye Ancient Department is in the city, and the commanders of the tribes are basically in the city, and there are only some low-level officers in the military camp outside the city, and it is impossible to organize effective resistance, the purpose of Li Zhen's move is to quickly break the military camp outside the city, and then bluff, so that the Baye Ancient Department in the city is not aware of the truth, Don't dare to send troops to meet the battle without authorization.

The wind was roaring, the blood was burning, and Li Zhen, who had killed Cheada with an arrow, was in a state of agitation, put away the iron-tired bow, took the bright silver spear from the victory hook, and shouted: "Follow me, kill!" Suddenly, a thousand Tang cavalry, who had been hidden in the shadows for more than two hours, immediately rushed out and rushed towards the panicked enemy camp with murderous energy.

Closer, closer, with the help of the light of the hastily lit torches in the enemy camp, Li Zhen could already see the existence of antlers, fences and other obstacles, his heart was beating fast, a stream of blood surged up, Li Zhen's eyes immediately became red, staring at the fence that was getting closer and closer, the spear in his hand suddenly raised one by one, and roared: "Open!" With the help of the momentum of the snow dragon horse, Li Zhen picked up a fence of the old man in the air with a shot, the snow dragon horse hissed, and rushed into the chaotic military camp with Li Zhen on his head.

"Kill!" Li Zhen roared wildly, the spear in his hand shook violently, several spear flowers erupted, and stabbed down several people in an instant, and the rest saw that Li Zhen was fierce, let out a shout, and fled in all directions, and at this time the follow-up cavalry also caught up, and rushed into the camp wildly, at the same time, another battalion of cavalry led by Hou Guozhong also came in from the right side of the camp, and a thousand Tang cavalry were like two wild dragons rampaging in the camp of the ancient tribe of Baye, setting off bursts of bloody wind and rain, and the corpses of the ancient tribe of Baye who were caught off guard were all over the field. In the panic, it was impossible to figure out how many soldiers and horses the Tang army came, and more than 5,000 people in the ancient department of Baye were stunned to be killed by a thousand Tang troops and fled in all directions, seeing that there was no Tang army in the direction of Kaiyang City, the defeated soldiers who were scattered immediately rushed to look at Kaiyang City and ran away.

In the Ya of Kaiyang City County, Qu Li, the leader of the ancient tribe of Baye, who was sleeping sweetly with the beauties he had snatched, suddenly heard the sound of killing outside the city, and he didn't even have time to put on his robes, he picked up a knife, and rushed out of the door screaming naked, leading the guards to rush to the head of Kaiyang City, just went to the city gate, and found that the military camp outside the city was already in flames, and a group of defeated soldiers at the city gate were either naked, or only wearing a leather jacket, regardless of the fact that they fled straight to the city, and suddenly became furious, and shouted wildly: "Come on, come on, Where is Takuno? ”

Baye Tuo, the most courageous general of the ancient department of Baye, was at the gate of the city at this time to guide the chaotic army that had broken into the city, and when he heard that his own commander was shouting at the head of the city, he hurriedly rushed to the head of the city, and said on one knee: "The commander, the subordinates are here." ”

Qu Lishu jumped to his feet and said: "Quick, take the men and horses, and kill the commander out of the city, go quickly!" ”

"No, never." Before Baye Tuo received the order, Na Long, the high priest of the ancient department of Baye, squeezed out of the crowd and said in a loud voice: "Great commander, the Tang army is in the dark, and the enemy situation is unknown, at this time, once it is ambushed, I am afraid that it will not even be able to protect Kaiyang City, or it is not too late to wait for the dawn to discuss." ”

"Fart, wait until dawn, the camp will be gone, don't go and save the camp quickly, go quickly!" Qu Lifu was furious, and Naken listened to Nalong's explanation, jumped to his feet and scolded. It's no wonder that Qu Li is in a hurry, most of the property stolen from Kaiyang these days is placed in the big camp, and if the big camp is lost, the property will inevitably be unprotected.

"Yes." Baye Taku didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly answered, hurriedly ran down the city, trying to organize the army to fight, but this moment the rout blocked the entire city gate, Bano Taku's men and horses will be able to get out of the city for a while, and what is even more depressing is: Kaiyang City is small, there is only one city gate, even if the Baye Takuto Department wants to bypass the rout, there is no way, but the rout is disrupted by their own formation.

"Look, Commander, the fire in the camp is all out." Just as Qu Lisu was anxiously wandering around the city, the high priest Na Long suddenly shouted, but saw that the camp outside the city had been quiet at this time, not to mention that there was no sound, even the tents and other fires that had been lit just now were all extinguished, and the camp in the dark night was lifeless, terrifyingly quiet, and strangely quiet, Qu Lishu bit his lip, stared at the direction of the camp with bloodshot eyes, and was silent for a while before he asked suspiciously: "High priest, what is going on?" ”

"I don't know." Na Long shook his head, pondered for a while, and continued: "Great Commander, the Tang Army is coming strangely, there must be fraud in it, we still have to defend the city, and wait for the dawn to see." ”

"No, once the battalion is lost, our army's retreat has been lost, how can we afford to wait!" Qu Li rejected Nalon's suggestion and hurriedly sent his personal guards to urge Bano Taku to send troops quickly.

Seeing that he could not persuade Qu Liluo, Na Long smiled bitterly and said: "Since the commander is going to send troops, it is better to do this: send some people to attack and try, if the enemy is too strong, the soldiers who go out to fight do not have to return to the city, otherwise, the Tang army will follow into the city, and our army is only afraid that it will not even be able to hold Kaiyang, if it is really impossible to defeat it, simply let Baye Tutuo lead the army to Shenwu, ask the Fugu Department to send troops to help, and inform the eldest prince by the way." ”

Qu Li thought about it, and there was really no other way, so he had to nod his head and said: "Then let Baye Tuo take a thousand people to rush, see the situation and then make a decision." ”

At the second moment of Shen Shi, the gate of Kaiyang that had just been closed suddenly opened again, and more than 1,000 Baye ancient cavalry rushed out with torches, and ran all the way to the camp only two miles away from the city gate.

One mile, four hundred meters, three hundred meters, two hundred meters, until the ancient cavalry of Baye has arrived at only thirty meters away from the camp, but the camp has always been quiet, no sound can be heard, the inexplicable Baye ancient cavalry did not dare to rush in, they stopped in confusion, the main general Baye Tuo stood in front of the queue, after listening quietly for a while, with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen cavalry rushed towards the gate of the camp hole......
