Chapter 1078: Wings Can't Escape
The horses were frightened and out of control, and the Xiliang army was in chaos.
Poundon was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and he didn't care about his injuries at all, and turned his horse's head to evacuate quickly.
Outside the security city, a pile of corpses and wounded soldiers were left, and Pang Deng, who had withdrawn, did not completely escape, but after a while, he met Cheng Jinzhi who was waiting here with his troops.
On one side were the morale of the court soldiers, and on the other side were the remnants of Xiliang at the end of the crossbow, Pang Deng was so annoyed that he pulled out the arrow on his shoulder with his backhand.
"If you are blocked, it is bad luck!" Poundon scolded.
Cheng Jinzhi smiled wantonly: "You are not unlucky, but there is no way out, if you flee south, you will meet my second brother, if you go north, I am here." Poundon, you can't escape! ”
Poundon threw the arrow on the ground and drew his long knife, trying to break through desperately.
But they didn't want to, they hadn't exchanged hands here, and there was the sound of horses' hooves clapping behind them, and the horses were rushing, and the ground was shaking under their feet.
It turned out that these soldiers led by Cheng Jinzhi were just "wolves in front", and there were "tigers behind" in the direction of Baoan City!
After Pang Deng's evacuation, the crossbows on the walls of the security city stopped, the city gate quickly opened, and the prepared cavalry rushed out of the city gate and chased in the direction of the Xiliang army's escape.
At the forefront was Jiang Muyuan, who got off the city wall and got on the war horse.
Pomden was like a turtle in an urn, being flanked back and forth.
In just a few days, he was caught by Jiang Shiyu and Gu Yunyan in the capital, and only halfway through the trip did he know that his hometown was occupied by the Beidi army, and he was sandwiched on the land of the Central Plains by the Northern Metro Cavalry and the defenders of the capital for thousands of miles.
Even more so tonight.
Thinking of this, Pang Deng spurted out a mouthful of blood, held a long knife, clamped the horse's belly and rushed towards Cheng Jinzhi.
If there is no possibility of getting out today, and their Xiliang soldiers are destined to be wiped out outside the security city, then he will never be captured.
Desperately trying to take a few people away!
can drag Cheng Jinzhi, he doesn't lose!
can pull down Jiang Muyuan, he will earn blood!
Pang Deng was full of blood and vowed to fight in the end, but his Xiliang army had already lost the heart to fight again, and was unable to face the dilemma of being flanked.
Only a few people can rise up in a desperate situation, and most of them are even trembling in their legs and stomachs.
Pang Deng didn't care about his subordinates, he slashed at Cheng Jinzhi.
Cheng Jinzhi had already taken precautions, the long sword in his hand held the blade, and the force of the weapon collision was so great that it shocked people's mouths, but he did not hesitate at all, and unloaded Pang Deng's force with skill.
A sword seals the throat.
Blood gushed out.
When Poundon fell, his eyes turned into brass bells.
He didn't make anything, he lost everything......
The general died in battle, which completely defeated the Xiliang army, which had lost its combat power.
It's getting brighter.
Cheng Jinzhi escorted the prisoners of war back to Baoan City, he got off the horse, put his arm around Jiang Muyuan's shoulder, and said, "It's still Ayuan's clever plan!" If we really let this Pomden escape back to Xiliang, it will take some work for us to clean him up. ”
Jiang Muyuan smiled.
He sent a message to Gu Yunyan to divide his troops, this move was actually risky, but he had fought side by side with the Gu family brothers, he trusted his uncles and brothers, and they did not live up to his trust.
The news that Gu Yunyan saved the capital and Gu Yunxi set foot on the Xiliang Seven Guards almost reached Jiang Muyuan, which made the soldiers who rushed back to Beijing excited.
Jiang Muyuan immediately made a decision, did not rush to the capital again, but led his troops to the west, to intercept him on the way from Pang Deng to Xiliang.
He calculated the speed of the withdrawal of Xiliang's soldiers, estimated that Pang Deng would receive the news of the loss of Xiliang in this area, and guessed that Pang Deng would enter the city at night nearby, so he led his troops to the security city in advance to set up an ambush.
Jiang Muyuan is not afraid of miscalculations.
Pang Deng did not enter the security city, for Jiang Muyuan, it was a missed opportunity, and then followed Pang Deng, who went west, and Gu Yunxi, who guarded Xiliang, to fight Pang Deng.
He was only afraid that their movements would not be fast enough, and the defenseless security city would fall into the hands of Pang Deng, and it would be the people in the city who would suffer.
Fortunately, they were lucky.
not only rushed to the city in advance, but also harvested the Xiliang army that threw themselves into the net.
Pang Deng died here, and this war that held high the banner of the Qing monarch could also end here.
At this time, order in the capital was gradually restored.
The city gates and city walls were repaired, the houses destroyed by the fire were restarted, and the people on the outskirts of Beijing who had gathered in the city returned home one after another.
Although it will take some time for the delayed trading and farming of each family to recover, at least there is no Xiliang Army in his head.
Jiang Shiyu finally freed up his hands and had time to clean up the bandits that emerged in the Gyeonggi area.
Or recruit An, or exterminate, the capital has already entered autumn, and if you don't clean it up now, will you leave them for the New Year?
At the same time, the excerpts of government affairs in various places that had been blocked by the siege of the capital were able to enter and exit again, and the yamen were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground.
Xu Yan climbed the city wall before dawn, and the civil engineering work of the city was in charge of the Ministry of Engineering.
The young servant was working all night, and although he didn't have to exert any effort, he kept the progress in mind, and he couldn't spare time during the day, so he simply came to see it at this time.
Even if it has been washed, there are still a lot of blood stains on the city wall, which seep into the cracks and merge with the stone bricks.
This is not the first time Xu Yan has seen it, but it is still shocking.
Thanks to this Jingshi, the city walls are tall and strong, far from being comparable to other cities, otherwise, under the indiscriminate bombardment of siege vehicles and trebuchets of the Xiliang army, it would have been impossible to hold on for a long time.
Xu Yan inspected very carefully, told the servants from time to time, and was busy until the morning light fell, before he went down the city wall, sat down at the street stall, and asked for a bowl of noodles.
The stall owner was enthusiastic, pulling Xu Yan to talk non-stop, saying that he lived in this area, and the fire that day almost burned his yard, if it weren't for the soldiers fighting bravely to defend the city, he would probably have lost his home and died.
He said later, Xu Shilang, your niece is so powerful, so much blood, he is worried when he looks at it, but the little lady is not afraid at all, and she doesn't blink her eyes when she kills the enemy.
"Everyone is saying that the Gu family is so capable!" The stall owner patted his thigh and said.
The men who joined the army must be powerful, but it is precisely because everyone has seen too many men that little ladies like Gu Yunjin and Gu Yunsi have subverted their impressions.
Knowing that the women in the north practice martial arts, and knowing that both men and women in the Gu family can fight, this time they really saw it with their own eyes.
The rumored little grandfather and lady with outstanding appearance were covered in blood, which did not affect her appearance at all, but became more and more burning like the morning sun.
The stall owner was obviously excited, and even forgot that there was another rumor - the relationship between the little grandfather and his wife and Xu Shilang and his wife was delicate.
Xu Yan listened to him praise Gu Yunjin, in fact, he was a little embarrassed, but he was more happy.
Even if the relationship is far away, Gu Yunjin can be so good, he is happy for her.
