In the northern city of Heyang, Hu Luguang had just been introduced into the straight hall of the city lord's mansion, so he bowed deeply to Ke Zhu Hunyuan, who was sitting in the hall, and said, "The situation in Kim Yong City is critical, and I implore the king to send reinforcements to save him quickly!"

"Hu Lu Kaifu, please get up quickly! You didn't go west to chase the thief a few days ago, why did you suddenly return to Heyang? What happened to Kim Yong Cheng?"

But when Zhu Hunyuan saw this, he hurriedly asked Hu Luguang to help him up, and then asked with a concerned face.

When Hu Luguang heard this question, his heart sank sharply, the distance between Heyang and Kim Yong Cheng was less than a day, but Zhu Hunyuan was sitting in Heyang, and he would definitely have to investigate the situation in Kim Yong City and dare not slack off, and he would definitely be able to quickly know what was happening there. Now he is knowingly asking, obviously not wanting to be too deeply implicated.

However, since Hu Lüguang had no men under his command and was worried about the situation in Kim Yong City, since he had a request for help, he could only lower his posture and seriously recount the experience of his return to help and fight with the enemy, and then said: "The army is blocked at Tongguan, and now the king of the plains is leading his army back. Once Kim Yong Cheng is lost, the return of the army is blocked, and the division is hanging, the situation is bound to be even more dangerous! Please also ask the king to judge the situation, make a decision as soon as possible, and send troops south to rescue as soon as possible!"

But after listening to Hu Luguang's narration, Zhu Hunyuan's expression suddenly became very serious, and he said in a deep voice: "I sent a message to ask the master before, and it doesn't hurt to return the thief, just stick to it. I didn't expect the situation to change in such a short period of time. This Li Boshan is a real demon, and he must not be careless in fighting with him!"

After saying this, he looked at Hu Luguang again and said, "It's really gratifying that the Taishi has a son like this! After days of running around and fighting, Hulu Kaifu must have been tired and unbearable, so please stay here for a while to rest and recuperate. When I send my troops south, I will inspect the thieves in detail, and when the time is ripe, I will lead my troops south to attack the thieves!"

Hu Luguang was indeed exhausted, and after hearing Zhu Hunyuan's statement, he thanked him repeatedly, and then withdrew from the straight hall to rest under the guidance of the sergeants.

"Brother, do you really want to send troops to save Kim Yong City? The old man of the Taishi country, Mingyue is also a strong general in the army, and the combined efforts of father and son could not defeat the enemy, but were defeated by Li Boshan. What are the chances of winning if I attack rashly now?"

After Hu Luguang withdrew, Zhu Hunyuan's brother in the straight hall couldn't help but speak.

But after Zhu Hunyuan heard this, he shook his head and said: "The former Heyang has fallen several times, and the imperial court has decided that the defense here is no longer subordinate to Luozhou, and the other is the three cities of the soldiers, and the one who is guarding against it is the thief general Li Boshan. There was a message in front of the Taishi and said that it was okay to stick to it, because he saw the light division of Mingyue coming back to help, he was afraid that he would be defeated by himself, and he attacked rashly, and he was really defeated by the enemy, isn't it to blame?

Now that the thief army has won a new victory, the momentum is sharp, if I lightly invite the battle, there is no doubt that the thief will be in the middle of it, and it is definitely not light! If I refuse directly, this disciple will be full of spirit, difficult to control his feelings, and it is unknown whether he will fight with his eyes, so I will temporarily comfort him."

But Zhu Hun Tianhe breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and sighed again: "This Li Boshan is really amazingly talented, and the hundreds of thousands of Qiang troops have come here before, which can be described as huge, but it is inevitable that I will be defeated. Now, he has not been here for long, and he has reversed the defeat. Who in my country can match him, brother?"

After hearing this, Zhu Hunyuan was silent for a moment, and after a while, he sighed and said, "A ruler can measure inches, but it can't be measured. Although I have been at war with them, I have no clever plan to overcome them, even if I recall them for a long time afterwards. For example, this time, the Taishi did not dare to fight because he was afraid, and then he was anxious to fight because he was afraid. Perhaps only by not fighting is the real undefeated."

But Zhu Hun Tianhe was a little speechless for a while when he heard that his brother respected Li Boshan so much, and after a while, he couldn't help but whisper: "Then according to what Brother Ao saw, I am ...... with Li Boshan today."

But Zhu Hunyuan's face suddenly sank when he heard this, and after glaring at him, he reprimanded: "It's already a non-existent thing, even if you do it yourself, don't do such a bad thing!"

But Zhu Hun Tianhe saw that his brother was angry, and he nodded his head again and again, not daring to think about these dangerous and exciting thoughts anymore.

But although Zhu Hunyuan agreed, Hun agreed

Lu Guang, but he only sent a few teams of scouts to the south, one was indeed to check how the enemy was doing, and the other was to be a little perfunctory to Hu Lu Guang. Originally, the enemy army was only concentrated around Kim Yong City, but now the scope of the activity has directly advanced to the vicinity of Heyang South City, and there are many enemy cavalry rushing to the south of Heyang City to shout for battle, and even occasionally rush to the river bridge.

But Zhu Hun Yuan was already jealous of Li Boshan, and when he learned of the enemy's arrogant and provocative actions, he became more and more convinced that Li Boshan was still not satisfied after the big victory, and tried every means to lure him to the south to fight, so he naturally refused to fulfill his wish, and strictly ordered the subordinate garrisons of the three cities of Heyang to be careful and vigilant, and remember not to leave the city to engage the enemy.

Hu Luguang rested in Heyang Beicheng for two days and didn't see him, but Zhu Hunyuan had further military operations, and his mood suddenly became anxious.

At the moment, he is not only worried about the safety of his father, who is still trapped in Kim Yong City, but also needs to prove that his previous desperate rescue and fighting the enemy are correct, otherwise he may not be able to afford the battle damage of more than 6,000 elite soldiers once he returns to China and is questioned.

And if he wants to prove his previous decision, of course, he must defeat the enemy army under Kim Yong Castle. But now that his division is in mourning, he has no chance to turn the tables in person, so he can only rely on Ke Zhu Hunyuan, who still has soldiers in hand.

Therefore, Hu Luguang repeatedly asked to see Ke Zhu Hunyuan, hoping to persuade the other party to send troops. But Zhu Hunyuan made up his mind that he would not easily end up in troubled waters, and he avoided Hu Luguang if he could, and he would not meet him at all.

"Thieves are rampant in Heluo, offending my territory, killing my soldiers, and the King of Fufeng is in charge of the town, but he doesn't dare to fight and live up to the country's grace!"

After several requests to see him, Hu Luguang simply came to the city lord's mansion and shouted and insulted the military mansion.

But Zhu Hun Yuan was ashamed in his heart, but he still did not come forward in person, but only ordered his brother Zhu Hun Tianhe to deal with the matter.

"Hu Lu Mingyue is presumptuous! The three cities of Heyang have their own military aircraft, and the soldiers of Zhucheng are by no means idle soldiers who can be transferred! If you rant and offend again, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

But Zhu Hun Tian and himself led dozens of personal soldiers to the outside of the mansion, pointed at Hu Luguang and reprimanded angrily.

"What is the role of a military aircraft in Hayang? All those who wear armor should be loyal to the monarch and diligent, kill the enemy and defend the country as their own responsibility! Now the Qiang thieves are raging, don't you wait? The former Fufeng King has already answered me, and he will send troops to rescue him on the same day, but now he refuses to ......."

When Hu Luguang heard this, he retorted angrily.

But Zhu Hun Tianhe's eyes widened, and the halberd pointed at Hu Luguang and said, "Even if you need to send troops, you should also discuss with Hu Lu Taishi, the King of the Plains, etc., who are you?" Quickly capture this roaring maniac in front of the mansion and violating our military discipline!"

With Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe's order, the guards behind him immediately rushed up, controlled Hu Luguang, and escorted him to the mansion and imprisoned.

But Zhu Hunyuan made up his mind to be a shrunken turtle in Heyang, which not only made Hu Luguang angry, but also made Li Tai feel sad. The key is that you are sure that if you don't come out, you will fall, but I am afraid that after Duan Shao advances north, Heyang's men and horses will also run out to join the battle, and he will not have the ability to build a long causeway to separate the entire Heluo.

With the passage of time, the news from the south gradually became bad, and the Northern Qi men and horses on the Nanqu Road arrived in Jiuqu City one after another, and the direction of Jiuqu City has frequently launched tentative attacks on Gaole's defense line, which shows that the return of Duan Shao's army is not far away.

Since Hayang was slow to move, Li Tai hit Kim Yong Cheng again. He first had a few more Heyang cannons erected on the mountain to create a more aggressive posture, but then he asked people to dismantle part of the long enclosure north of Kim Yong City, and then gradually made the posture that the army was about to pull out the camp and evacuate one after another.

The defenders outside the city are also closely watching the various movements outside the city, and seeing the enemy's various inconsistent behaviors, there are naturally many speculations and opinions in the city.

If the defenders in the city had made up their minds and could not hold out, the Wei army's actions would not have caused too many waves in the city.

However, with the forced battle of Hu Lujin before, so that the division and brigade were defeated, and even Hu Lujin himself escaped and returned to the city after he fell ill, which broke the tacit understanding and atmosphere that he originally adhered to.

It also made the hearts of the people in the city suffer a lot, and they desperately hoped that the situation would be uncertain.

Now the behavior of the enemy army reveals a smell of being strong and strong, and it suddenly makes the soldiers in the city think about it, and they guess that it is not that the army of the king of the plains has returned, or that reinforcements have arrived in Heyang, and the thief army knows that they are not enemies and want to break the siege?

There were many people who had such thoughts, so one day after nightfall a group of soldiers went out of the city along the hanging baskets, and felt towards the long wai of the sand bank, and when they went around the gap in the long wai, they saw that there was a camp near the left, but there were still many tent utensils left. So they went inside and rummaged through, and found in the camp a lot of money and goods that the enemy had hastily evacuated and could not take with them.

When these men returned to the city with their goods and reported what they had discovered, it caused an uproar in the city. Naturally, some people wonder if this could be a deliberate trick by the enemy to lure the enemy? Because they hadn't received any news of the arrival of reinforcements, it was a bit strange that the enemy had just withdrawn.

However, many strategies seem simple and simple, but they are often tried and tested, just to make a fuss about human nature.

At present, Hu Lujin in the city is sick and can't see things, even if he is not sick, his prestige is greatly damaged, and Gao Rui, the king of Zhaojun, is too shallow to convince the public, and he is leaderless and disheartened, no matter how reasonable the inference is, it is only speculation after all, but the goods brought back by those soldiers are conclusively visible and tangible. Therefore, although there is no explicit order from Shangfeng, there are still many soldiers who go out of the city at night to explore the enemy camp, and naturally they have gained a lot.

This situation lasted for several days, and the people in the city became more and more impetuous. In the early morning of this day, the soldiers defending the city woke up and went to the city to inspect, but found that there was no trace of the enemy even on the dirt mountain in the south of the city, only a dozen Heyang cannons that had not been completely dismantled, and there were still a lot of armor materials scattered up and down the dirt mountain.

"The thief has retreated, the thief has retreated! Get out of the city and collect the relics!"

In the past few days, the night treasure hunt in the city has become a tacit understanding, it can be said that it is to support the bold and starve to death, and now seeing this scene, whether it has been profitable before, or cowardly has not come out, at this time they can't hold it back, and they vigorously pick up the earth and stones blocking the city gate, and then they swarm out.

Some of the steaders may have shouted for dissuasion and wanted to restrain the sergeants, but some of the governors themselves could not hold back and led the crowd out of the city. They may not be interested in the supplies that the enemy has discarded, but the Heyang cannon on the dirt mountain is extremely attractive.

Not to mention the soldiers of the Qi army who are vying to go out of the city, Wang Gaorui of Zhaojun, who has been in the big tent of the Chinese army to replace Hu Lujin in the big tent of the Chinese army recently, was also overjoyed after learning about this, when he put down the affairs on the desk, stood up and went to the other tent to visit Hu Lujin, who was recuperating from illness, and told him the good news.

"Master, great joy, great joy! The thieves outside the city abandoned the camp and left, so that my crisis was resolved!"

After walking into the room where Hu Lujin was recuperating, Gao Rui looked at the haggard old man lying on the couch and said with a smile.

"The thieves are gone? Yes, it was my son who led the army back again? Are the reinforcements from the south or the north?"

Hu Lu Jin Ben was sleepy and in poor spirits, and after hearing this, his eyes suddenly became bright, and he looked at Gao Rui and asked with a look of hope.

Gao Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "I don't know where the reinforcements came out, but I saw the enemy abandon the camp and leave. The soldiers went out of the camp to inspect the day, and this matter should be correct. As for the location of Hulu Kaifu, the Taishi does not need to worry, if he is victimized by thieves, why doesn't the thief army show off in the city recently? It can be seen that after the danger is lifted, father and son will be able to meet soon!"

"I hope to be like the king......

After hearing this, Hu Lujin first barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and then hurriedly said, "Although the thief retreats, the king must not underestimate the enemy. Li Boshan's female cadres are dangerous and cunning, but they still have to strengthen the city defenses and wait for reinforcements to arrive outside the city before they can enter and leave."

Gao Rui's face changed slightly after hearing this, and he said with embarrassment: "There are more soldiers in the city, and the thief army has abandoned the camp for several days in a row, so it shouldn't be a hypocrisy......

However, before his voice fell, he suddenly heard the sound of drums and horns outside the city, and his face changed suddenly, and Hu Lujin on the bed was even more angry, and he was angry with a breath of bad breath in his chest, beating his chest and panting, and he couldn't even speak for a while.

As the drums and horns around the city sounded, there was chaos outside Kim Yong City at this time, and the soldiers of the Qi army, who were originally happy to go out of the city to collect the materials left by the Wei army, changed their faces greatly, and they could no longer care about the equipment and property scattered on the ground, and they turned around and rushed towards the city gate.

But not everyone fled in the direction of the city gate, the siege of the city for several days has made them feel very anxious, even if they flee back to the city this time, the previous siege hardship does not know how long it will take, so some people simply flee straight to the mountains and mountains north of Kim Yong City, hoping to escape back to Hayang from that direction.

The soldiers had different thoughts and directions of escape, which suddenly made the situation even more chaotic. Although the Wei army withdrew from a long distance in order to hide people's eyes, and it took a lot of time to return to the city with light cavalry at this time, when they rushed back to the city, there were still many people running in fear up and down the city, and the entire city defense system was also in chaos, so that the Wei soldiers could smoothly rush into the city gate.

As the Wei army entered the city, the already chaotic situation in the city became even more difficult to control. After the city gate was controlled, more and more Wei soldiers also poured into the city, and soon all the key points in the city were controlled one after another.

As a pure fortress, Kim Yong City has a relatively simple structure, and many buildings in the city have been destroyed by stone artillery bombardment, so the important areas are clear at a glance. Therefore, after a large number of Wei soldiers and horses entered the city, they immediately locked the Chinese army's tent where the military aircraft was located.

When Li Tai entered the city under the guard of his own soldiers, this big tent was already surrounded by regiments, and there were many soldiers who died in battle in front of the tent. Although he had been clamoring to bury Hu Lujin's bones here, Li Tai also understood that it was more meaningful for an enemy general of this level to be captured alive, so even if he ordered to suspend the offensive, he shouted to persuade him to surrender before he entered.

In the big tent at this time, Gao Rui and Hu Lujin sat opposite each other with gloomy expressions. Hearing the shouts of the enemy soldiers outside the tent, Hu Lujin looked at Gao Rui with a frightened expression and said abruptly, "The old man is incompetent, and it affects the king. The king is a royal nobleman, and Li Boshan is also a well-known leader, so he will not harm him without authorization......

"Shall the Master come out with me?"

Gao Rui looked at Hu Lujin and said in a trembling voice.

After hearing this, Hu Lujin shook his head, and then said with a wistful sigh in his eyes: "Ah Liudun Ben Mo Nan Pifu, fortunately from Taizu to create a great cause, actually became a famous minister in China, and died without regrets in his life! It is already a shame to be defeated by a young class, how can you still endure humiliation and steal life? Why don't you donate my remnants of my life to make it a strong festival, take care of the king!"

After saying this, Hu Lujin grabbed the saber in front of his knee and slammed it deep into his abdomen, even though his body leaned back and died.
