Chapter 274: Precursor

The middle valley also collapsed, but it was not as bad as the collapse of the gourd's mouth, and it couldn't stop the Western Xia army for too long.

The Liang army retreated to the valley mouth, which was the last retreat, and Wang Yan placed the last six boxes of explosives ten zhang behind him.

It was still two shifts resting, and there were less than 800 people left, even counting the mole's engineering team and the palace guard, the Western Xia army had lost at least 30,000 people, compared to the time when the team was reduced by half.

Just after the time, the Western Xia army rushed down from the stone wall, the mental state was not good compared to the previous round, obviously was deterred by the means of the Liang army, a drought thunder can be said to be a coincidence, two times in a row, it is not a coincidence, there are warlocks in the Liang army who can lead the thunder, as for why not to drop the thunder in the Western Xia army, maybe it is because this spell has a limited range, people can always make up for what they don't know with what they understand, this is a common disease of people, and the Xixia people are no exception.

Didn't hide Zang Feng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his nails were inserted into the flesh, these two dry thunders shattered most of the military heart of the Western Xia army, at least he couldn't see the fearless momentum anymore, they were warriors, they dared to fight with others, but they didn't have the courage to fight with the sky! In front of Tianwei, even the brave Western Xia warriors lowered their noble heads.

The Liang people still have the means, if they use the drought thunder on the body of Wu Tuotuo, then what he will lose is not just a hand!

I thought that this detour would go well, but I didn't expect to be dragged in the mouth of the gourd and still haven't rushed out, half of the dead soldiers have already reached half, and there are more than 1,000 wounded soldiers, who are already broken.

The Western Xia army did not rush to attack, did not hide Zang Feng stared at Wang Yan who was standing at the mouth of the valley, rode forward, several guards followed, and stopped ten zhang away from Wang Yan.

"Boy! The old man wants to know your name! ”

"If you can overcome me, I will tell you!" Wang Yan pointed at Zang Feng Dao with a coiled dragon.

"Funny boy, even if you don't tell the old man, it won't be long before the old man will know your name! You won this battle! Zang Feng said, turned around and returned to the army, and the Western Xia soldiers began to climb over the stone platform.

The Western Xia army retreated!

In front of Wang Yan, he said a word, and then retreated.

Liang Jun was stunned, and then the surprise exploded from everyone's face! There were laughter, but more tears were shed, because this battle was too tragic.

Wang Yan's face did not show joy, his eyes were fixed on the stone pile, and soon the happy soldiers also calmed down and set up a position behind Wang Yan.

Liang Jun's performance reached the ears of Zang Feng, who shook his head and ordered.

"Go back the way you came!"

Almost all the Western Xia troops acquiesced to this result, in front of the Tianwei created by the Liang army, it was already difficult for them to mention the fighting spirit, and they saw with their own eyes that the warriors of the Western Xia were * in the firelight, and the broken arms flew to their feet, and their fingers even trembled, which made people feel cold all over their bodies.

The Western Xia army really retreated...

Two days later, Yue Peng woke up, he was so badly injured that he couldn't use his strength, Wang Yan told him that the Western Xia army had retreated, and he ate something and then fell asleep again, this time he slept peacefully.

After another three days, reinforcements arrived, and the Eagle Guard recognized their identity, Tian Cewei! The elite of the elite, about 10,000 people.

Wang Yan gave up the entrance, and Tian Cewei took over the protection of Wang Yan and the others, and let them go back to the gate to recuperate.

In the awe-inspiring gaze of Tian Cewei, Wang Yan took 800 remnants of the army to embark on the road back to the Dragon Pass, only more than 300 of the 800 people gathered in Yingluoluo, most of them were members of the engineering team, joined the battle late, the most tragic charge did not participate, he brought more than 5,000 people when he came, and only brought back less than one-tenth when he went back, and his heart was very blocked, and he didn't know how to explain to the families of his dead men.

After all, the Broken Dragon Pass was not captured by the Western Xia Army, Tian Cewei had already climbed the wall to help defend against the enemy, and the Western Xia Army was still surrounded by the Guanxia, but since Tian Ce Wei appeared on the wall, he never launched an attack, but was on the defensive.

After entering the pass, Wang Yan thought that he was already miserable, but when he saw the scene in the pass, Wang Yan realized that they were not much worse than himself.

Lei Zhen had more than ten injuries on his body, two arms and one leg were wrapped in bandages, his expression was very sad, there were more than 1,000 people left to defend the city, and there were less than 100 people left, he felt sorry for Wang Yan, let his brothers cause such a big casualty, but after seeing that there were only more than 300 people standing behind Wang Yan, he was even more sad.

There are less than 1,000 defenders left in more than 50,000 people, if it weren't for the timely arrival of Tiance Guard, the Broken Dragon Pass would have really fallen, this time guarding the pass, the three gangs all suffered heavy losses, and the Four Seas Gang and the Five Phoenix Pavilion all killed more than ninety percent of the people.

Wang Yan returned to Juying's camp, brought a jar of spirits when he came, unsealed the mud, drank half of the jar in one go, and then gave the rest to Lei Zhen, asking him to wait for Yue Peng to wake up and share it with him.

A man in the tent, his eyes gradually becoming blurred.

Burst!

A mouthful of black blood sprayed on the ground, and Wang Yan fell sideways on top of the soft collapse...

These are all poisons accumulated in the past half a month, and since they left the border of Xinzhou, their hearts have not slackened for a day, especially in the more than ten days at Hulukou, like walking a tightrope on the edge of a cliff.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dark in the tent, except for the faint light of candles burning on the table not far away.

I didn't dream, so the time of the coma was just a matter of opening and closing his eyes for Wang Yan, and he sat up straight, and suddenly found that his clothes and armor had been taken off, which was very good, and his body was much lighter.

After slowing down the tea, Wang Yan went out of the camp, and it was Yue Pengju and Lei Zhen who guarded the door, and when the two saw Wang Yan come out, their faces were full of joy.

"Young Master, you're awake!" Yue Pengju gasped, he had internal injuries, and he had not recovered much in the past few days.

"When did you wake up, and how long have I slept this time?"

"I woke up in the afternoon, and I heard that you have slept for two nights."

"Brothers who died in battle... Is the statistics out? ”

At the mention of this, the faces of the three of them showed sadness, and Lei Zhen answered.

"Young Master, there are only three hundred and eighty-seven people left..."

"Remember the names of the brothers who died in the war, and wait until I return to Yuanyang to take care of their relatives." Wang Yan gritted his teeth and said. "I'll go out for a walk, don't come along..."

Out of the camp tent, the smell of blood became stronger, the camp tent of Tian Cewei was full of around, and there were patrolling soldiers everywhere, and some saw Wang Yan, but they didn't come forward to ask, just glanced at it and continued to patrol.

Wang Yan didn't care, the place in the gate was not big, it was crowded with the camp, and the spacious place turned out to be the wall.

Wang Yan went up to the wall, and there was no one to stop him along the way.

The moonlight sprinkled on the wall and illuminated the wall, Wang Yan looked at the moon, and a trace of longing flashed in his eyes.

"You're awake."

Wang Yan turned around and saluted with a fist at the speaker.

"Didn't Lord Governor sleep so late?"

"Where can I sleep?" Guan Qingkun smiled bitterly and looked at the Xixia military camp under the pass. "Right now, Liangzhou has fallen into the hands of the Xixia thieves, the people of Liangzhou are being poisoned by the Xixia thieves, I have no way as a Liangzhou pastor, if it weren't for you dragging the team that didn't hide Zang Feng, Tian Cewei didn't arrive in time, I'm afraid that the Broken Dragon Pass has fallen into the hands of the Xixia people, and when the time comes, Liangzhou will be cut off from the territory of Daliang, and I will be the sinner of Daliang."

"I also want to thank you for helping me hold back the team that didn't hide Zang Feng, if they break through the gourd mouth, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"That's what the last general should do."

"I heard that you cut off a hand that you didn't hide." Guan Qingkun suddenly changed his words and said.

"It turns out that his name is not hidden." Wang Yan thought about it for a while when he heard this, he had injured more Western Xia generals at the mouth of the gourd, but the one who cut off his hand was the golden armor general, it turned out that he was called Wu Zangtuo, and the one who could make Guan Qingkun say must be a fierce man from Western Xia, presumably he was him.

"I didn't hide Tuotuo is the sharp blade of the Wuzang clan, I was the first person among the young people of Western Xia, I didn't expect to be defeated by you, and I was cut off a hand, it seems that the young master of my Liang is even more powerful than the youth of Western Xia! How could someone who could kill through the Huo family's army formation be no match for a person who didn't hide it. Guan Qingkun said, with a smile on his face. I didn't expect that there was such a fierce man as you in the reinforcements in Xinzhou. ”

"The state pastor praised it falsely." Wang Yan said modestly.

"Have you ever thought about coming to the army?"

The solicitation in Guan Qingkun's tone was already obvious, and Wang Yan's performance against the enemy this time was outstanding, whether it was in Guanxia or Hulukou. Especially his martial arts, it can be said that he gave Guan Qingkun a surprise, thousands of troops are easy to get, it is difficult to find, if you take him as a general and let him charge, he can definitely turn into a sharp blade! This is what Guan Qingkun saw in person.

"Thank you for your kindness, the last general has no plans to join the army for the time being." Wang Yan replied truthfully.

"As a Liang man, don't you want to protect your family and defend the country?"

"The last general has the ambition to protect the family and defend the country, but it is not yet the time to be in the army, and there are still many things waiting for the last general to deal with.

"If the country is not there, how can it be home?" Guan Qingkun said coldly.

"If you don't have home, what's the use of defending the country?" Wang Yan said in a resolute tone.

Guan Qingkun's face was angry, and it took a long time to recover his strength, his face relaxed, and he sighed.

"For me, the country is home, I am the pastor of Liangzhou, and the people of Liangzhou are my family, but I failed to protect them, seeing them being poisoned by the Xixia thieves but unable to do anything, I am ashamed of the people!" Guan Qingkun said, turning his head to look at Guan Xia, his eyes covered with a layer of fog.

Guan Qingkun is a good person, and secondly, he is a good official, you can feel it from what he said, every sentence is from the bottom of his heart, compared to Xinzhou Mu Liu Tang is simply a day and a place, maybe only such a person can guard the border state, and only he will personally lead people to guard the pass at this time of crisis.

"My lord, the Broken Dragon is here, and it is only a matter of time before Liangzhou is recovered, you don't have to be too sad."

"Then are you willing to help me recover Liangzhou?" Guan Qingkun turned his head abruptly and looked at Wang Yandao with burning eyes.

Yes?

"Please also ask the state pastor to be more detailed." Wang Yan didn't dare to agree, if it took three hundred and fifty-eight years to subdue Liangzhou, he would stay in Liangzhou for three hundred and fifty-eight years? Xinzhou still has things to do, what should be done now is to strengthen Juying, Wang Yan needs his own strength to protect his family and brothers!
