Chapter 891: Killed by a barbarian and abandoned his armor
So, only women came to visit her, what could these people say? It's just that she's curious and wants to verify some chat topics, she has no fate with these people.
Well, those who are destined have seen it on the third floor of the winery.
Liao Qing went to the academy and worked hard, after all, there is nothing big now, if he can have a good learning opportunity, he naturally can't let it go, he is a very self-disciplined person, this point, he has proven himself a long time ago.
Every time I come back, I will bring back some news to Xu Jiaojiao, mostly about the front line.
Even Du Zhengyan sometimes comes to their yard to say some of the latest news. Du Zhengyan has already seen that his daughter-in-law is not ordinary, and her ideas and insights are not comparable to ordinary men.
It is undoubtedly beneficial for the family to know more about such people.
In the beginning, it was all bad news.
Not to mention that Jingcheng Pass was occupied, after those barbarians on horseback rested for a few days, they suddenly captured a border town, and this town, which is only twenty miles away from Tianjing City, means that they can attack Tianjing City at any time!
It was at this time that the army of Samurai Jie arrived.
Wu Shijie also knew that the enemy had occupied the town, so he planned to go to Tianjing City to rest and fight again tomorrow.
But they never expected that these barbarians would suddenly attack them, and they would dare to attack his army of 50,000 with only 5,000 people!
The 50,000-strong army was entering the city, and when they were caught off guard, they were killed by the barbarians and lost their armor, and they were so embarrassed that they almost rushed into the city!
In this battle, in fact, the casualties of the army were not too large, at least there were not many deaths, most of them were wounded soldiers, but they were frightened by the bravery of the barbarians.
Later, Wu Shijie made people fight many times, but there was no merit, those barbarians were completely unexpected by him, and they did not defend in the town, they all took the initiative to attack, and they were all cavalry, and they ran when they saw that the situation was not good, and the cavalry of Daxiangguo was pitiful, and they couldn't catch up at all, or they didn't dare to chase.
Even after taking the town, Wu Shijie did not dare to garrison here, and he had to return to Mirror City at night, because the town did not have a city wall or other defensive objects.
dragged on like this, and later the reinforcements of the Montenegrin Empire also arrived, with nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Wu Shijie's army was reduced too much, only more than 30,000 people.
How can this be fought?
The 50,000 army still can't take 5,000 people, and now the disparity in strength is even greater, and Wu Shijie has no bottom in his heart, so he can only retreat in the city.
From beginning to end, Samurai Jie didn't even see the shadow of the Mirror City Pass.
Later, Fang Yu arrived.
Fang Yu led an army from the capital, and later recalled some Fang family troops on the road, and there were nearly 30,000 horses at this time.
After arriving, he did not enter the city at all, but dug trenches on the spot and waited for the battle.
At the same time, the minister sent the minister into the city, read the edict, relieved Wu Shijie of his position, and ordered the rest to be merged into Fang Yu's command.
Fang Yu had 60,000 soldiers and horses, so he fought steadily and steadily, drove the enemy army all the way to Jingcheng Pass, and finally besieged but did not attack. The Montenegrins also came out to attack, but Fang Yu had already prepared, with a lot of pikemen, lined up in a dense formation, the cavalry couldn't please at all, and every time they left some corpses and retreated back to the pass.
The Black Mountain Empire is all cavalry, and generally brings some dry food by itself, and in the short term, there is no need to worry about food problems, but after a long time, it will become a problem. In addition, the cost of war horses is very large, and Jingchengguan is not a place of production, there is not much surplus of grain and grass at all, and within a few days, the people of Montenegro panicked, and they had no choice but to abandon the pass and flee.
Fang Yu took advantage of the victory to pursue, captured the Jingcheng Pass in one go, and finally captured more than 2,000 Black Mountain cavalry who couldn't run!
When the news reached the capital, the entire capital cheered!
The emperor is also very happy, and he praises it in the court, Jingchengguan still has to rely on the people of the Fang family!
The people of the Integrity Dart Board are also back.
came back together, as well as He Yanxi and Che Zhengting.
Xu Jiaojiao gave Mr. Qin's dart head a thousand taels of silver as a dart gift.
Mr. Qin's dart head was still about to be excused, but Xu Jiaojiao said: "There are so many brothers, they all have to eat, even if they do good deeds, they can't work hungry, right?" So this thousand taels of silver, you must accept it, it's a big deal, I'll ask the emperor to find a supplement for me, don't worry about anything. ”
To put it mildly, Mr. Qin's dart head finally accepted it.
Liao Qing also went home in the evening, so Xu Jiaojiao and Zhang Luo with him, invited everyone to have a wine and dinner together, which was regarded as catching the wind and washing the dust.
There is a special cook in Du Mansion, Xu Jiaojiao in line with the principle of making the best use of things and being diligent and thrifty, let people prepare a banquet early, and set up a total of four tables in Baiyuan, open to eat and drink.
During the banquet, there was no need for Xu Jiaojiao to ask, as soon as Mr. Qin and Che Zhengting talked about the delivery process, they talked about the delivery process.
The surroundings of the capital were fine, but after more than 100 miles, they found a few suspicious people, who seemed to be thieves.
Later, passing by a bazaar, Che Zhengting simply asked someone to make a big flag, with two big characters of "righteous medicine" written on it, and inserted it on the head car, which could be seen from afar.
Later, I don't know if it was because of their large number of people or because of this banner, there were really no strong men to stop them along the way, but they had a misunderstanding with a group of merchants who were also many and powerful, and in the end there was no fight.
It's just that when they were about to arrive in Tianjing City, they encountered a small group of scouts from the Black Mountain cavalry, Che Zhengting and Qin Zong's dart head immediately made a decision, led everyone to take the lead and killed all ten cavalrymen, and then hurried slowly, and finally entered Tianjing City without danger.
At this time, Tianjing City is under martial law, and without Che Zhengting, they may not be able to enter the city.
After entering the city, Che Zhengting found Fang Jiajun. At this time, there were only a small number of Fang family troops in the city, and together with the original garrison in the city, as the soldiers defending the city, the rest went out with Fang Yu.
However, He Yanxi happened to be there.
He Yanxi heard what they were going to do, and immediately introduced Fang Yu to them.
Fang Yu returned, and after hearing about their intentions, he was very happy and grateful, and entertained everyone, although they could not drink alcohol during the war, but the two parties chatted very happily. General Fang also specially told Che Zhengting to recuperate from his injuries, and asked President Qin to send a message to thank Xu Jiaojiao for his righteous actions.
Mr. Qin, they originally wanted to stay there to help out with something, but then they saw General Fang pushing all the way and surrounding Jingcheng Pass, and they came back without their use.
Xu Jiaojiao thanked them again for their help, and asked He Yanxi again, did she find the traitor when she went to Tianjing City this time? Why don't you see He Boji?
He Yanxi nodded, "Found it." But it wasn't what we found, it was those Fang Jiajun who found it. I'm afraid you will never know who this person is. It turned out to be Lord Lu, the overseer of Jingchengguan! ”
