907 - Breaking the city

After a day of hard fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties, no more than yesterday, this time, from morning to night, they could not touch a single person on the city wall.

As a result, the morale of the defenders in the city was high.

Under the elimination of the other's strengths, Yao Yu's army is a little insufficient.

In this regard, Yao Yu squinted at Luoyang City for a long time in the night, and finally gave the order to withdraw the army.

On the second day, the army attacked again.

As a result, just like yesterday, he said that he did not climb to the top of the city, and was even pushed out of the city by Liu Zheng's army, which was like being beaten with chicken blood, and almost entered Yao Yu's camp.

For this reason, Liu Zheng stood in front of the two armies and showed off his might for a while.

In front of Wang Xuance, this almost didn't make Wang Xuance angry, and as soon as he got up, he wanted to lead his troops to the city.

It was Yao Yu who stopped him with a loud shout, so he didn't let Wang Xuance do it.

On the third day, the armies of both sides began an offensive and defensive battle again.

Compared with the first day, Liu Zheng struggled to maintain it, and on this day, the morale of the defenders was like a rainbow, but the attacking Yao Yu army was wandering in confusion one by one, not knowing what the meaning of his persistence was.

After fighting all day in a daze, when Yao Yu's army withdrew, Liu Zheng taunted Yao Yu at the head of the city: "Yao Yu, didn't you say that you would take Luoyang City in three days?" I think you're just big talkers. In five days, my majesty's reinforcements will arrive. What's the matter, do you have a way to take Luoyang? Or shall I give you the outer city? โ€

At the end of the day, there was a lot of laughter in the city.

Luoyang City is unusually strong, if you can't take it down at the first time when the morale of the defenders is insufficient, and wait for the defenders to come back, it will be three days and ten days, that is, thirty days, and it can also make Luoyang as stable as Mount Tai.

This point cannot be changed even by Yao Yu.

Of course, this is without the use of other means.

The public will hear Liu Zheng's ridicule, and they are not lightly angry.

Yao Ba, who was following Yao Yu, and the short-tempered Wang Xuance, pointed at Liu Zheng in the city with their hands and scolded: "Liu Zheng, you don't fart." โ€

Liu Zheng didn't take the insults of the two to heart at all: "Yao Yu, if you want me to say, if you really can't do it, you should quickly go back to your Jiangdong and bully the Sima clan." The people in this northern part of the river are fierce, and they are far from being able to eat recklessly like you. โ€

Wang Xuance was so angry by Liu Zheng's words that he completely lost his mind, he snorted and cursed endlessly: "Damn, damn!" โ€

Seeing Wang Xuance like this, he was already angry and didn't know what to say, but Yao Yu was steady, put his hand to his lips and coughed vigorously, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, and then smiled confidently: "Liu Zheng, do you really think that you can stop me by relying on Luoyang City?" I didn't do it before, it's not that I can't do anything about your turtle shell. If I make a move, this Luoyang City will change hands in a snap of a finger. โ€

Liu Zheng's face was full of disdain, but he just thought that this was Yao Yu's big words: "Come on, you, who are you fooling, who won't say anything to coax people?" I also said that I would be able to enter Jiankang tomorrow and take your wife captive as slaves. โ€

The generals were furious again, this Liu Zheng, not to mention humiliating Yao Yu, but also daring to humiliate Yao Yu's family, is tolerable, which is unbearable.

Yao Ba was the most angry: "You dare to humiliate them!" โ€

Yao Yu was still as calm as ever, signaling everyone to calm down, and then, he looked up at Liu Zheng like a flat lake: "It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, you look back, is this Luoyang City still yours?" โ€

Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then turned his head again, and his eyes almost popped out of his sockets in an instant.

As far as the eye can see, you can only see the fire in the city, and there are countless shouts of killing in the city.

How is it possible, all the people in the city are obviously locked up by themselves, how can there be people corresponding to Yao Yu?

Just when Liu Zheng was shocked, an order soldier came to report that a barbarian with a height of nine feet and a halberd in his hand led hundreds of people to control the gate of the East City, and the defenders were killed and scattered, and the barbarian had already opened the city gate and the drawbridge fell.

Hearing this, Liu Zheng only felt dizzy, he hurriedly ran to the city gate tower to look down, and sure enough, a burly barbarian with a Fang Tian halberd was guarding the city gate, and was tearing his throat and shouting loudly: "Your Highness, the city gate has been opened, quickly enter the city!" Punish Liu Zheng together! โ€

Just when Liu Zheng's face changed drastically and he was about to retake the city gate, Yao Yu on the snow stepping on the black horse slowly pulled out his sword, pointed the sword forward, and shouted loudly: "Kill!" Take Luoyang City for me. โ€

For a time, the morale of the two sides changed hands, Wang Xuance, Guan Lie, and Kong Xiao took the lead, led the headquarters guards, and shouted into the city.

Liu Zheng hurriedly led the troops to meet the battle, but he was not guarded, Yao Ba secretly followed Wang Xuance into the city, and after seeing Liu Zheng, his eyebrows were upside down: "Dog thief!" Where are you going! โ€

Before Shile's army entered the Xin'an territory, he received the news of the fall of Luoyang City.

This made Shile shocked, and pulled the messenger to ask what was going on.

He marched in a hurry all the way, from Yao Yu to the present, but after six days, how did Luoyang City fall?

The deceased who fled all the way back wept and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Yao Yu used the tunnel that escorted Yang Xianrong Sima Ye to escape from Luoyang, and sent Xi Dawu to steal into the city and set it on fire. โ€

"What about Liu Zheng?"

"General Zhennan's army was defeated and was beheaded by Yao Yu's son Yao Ba."

Hearing this, Shiler's body shook and he almost fell off his horse.

Fortunately, his subordinates will protect him from the side in time.

"Yao Yu! I don't share the sky with you. Passing on my order, everyone should speed up and hurry, within two days, I must rush to Luoyang! โ€

The words fell, and Shile rushed forward one by one.

Two days later, Shi Le, who arrived at Hangu Pass, sadly discovered something, and Yao Yu, who had laid down Luoyang, moved quickly and had recovered all the eight passes in Luoyang.

Here in Hangu Pass, Yao Yu left 10,000 troops, and the main general Lian Junkong Xiaoliang Tiger was strictly guarded.

Shi Le only had 30,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and it was obviously unrealistic to storm Hangu Pass.

No, he tried to detour from other passes to see if he could find a place where Yao Yu's defense was weak and enter the Luoyang Basin.

As a result, Yao Yu had many generals, and there were eight passes in Luoyang, each of which was guarded by at least 5,000 people.

If Shi Le wanted to attack, Yao Yu could support from Luoyang.

As a last resort, Shi Le could only temporarily set up camp outside the pass, and at the same time, a large army was drawn from the rear to recapture Luoyang.

Ten days later, Wang Yang's soldiers and horses rushed to the outside of Luoyang Tiger Prison Pass, and the total number of soldiers and horses with Shi Le's was 80,000, which was a force that could not be ignored.

Relying on this 80,000-strong army, Shile ordered a tentative attack on Hangu Pass, Dagu Pass, Bishui Pass, Tiger Prison Pass and other places.
