Chapter 1699: Why Bear the Horse Leather Shroud Returned
"Well, that's right." Xue Jinshan nodded, "But if there is a battle between you and me, if I die in battle, I will ask Ziyun to help me collect the body and send it home. ”
"Why do people like you, Brother Jinshan, still care about this? Since you have entrusted you, your brother will do it for you. Lin Yue smiled, "But I don't care, no matter where I die, I burned it directly and buried it, I followed the boss to fight with Wanyan Pingqiu in Yinshan, and many brothers were killed and injured, all of them were buried in Yinshan, and the boss also personally wrote the inscription, 'Qingshan buries loyal bones everywhere, why do you need to return the body of the horse leather!'" ’”
"Not to mention Yin Mountain, how many dry bones are buried under this Yanyun Mountain? In the dead of night, the sound of ghosts crying can be heard all over the mountains. Xue Jinshan sighed, "Although I am guarding this pass, I really hope that one day this Xiongguan will no longer exist." ”
"So our boss Xiao Chen, Marshal Zhuge and I all admire the general." Lin Yue said, "It's not like I said it in front of you...... By the way, General Yunfei also asked me to bring you a cart of gifts, a bloody horse, and asked me to convey his greetings to you. ”
"Is Guan Yunfei really that Guan Yunfei?" Xue Jinshan never figured out this matter, at that time, he saw Guan Yunfei in front of Xiao Guan, with a horizontal knife and seven arrows in a row, but he was obviously a dead man!
He has always been buried in the mountains and forests not far from the city, and when I first dug up his bones, I saw it with my own eyes, and his beard was really so long, but it was just ...... Can people be brought back from the dead?
"To be honest, I don't know if the old general Guan Yunfei has come back to life, and I don't believe it." Lin Yue said, "But he said that he was, and some people who had seen him before also said that he was ...... I can only think that he is, I think maybe it is a resurrection of the corpse, and I don't know? ”
"Whether it's him or not, the old general is also mighty." Xue Jinshan said, "Why didn't his old general come in this battle?" ”
"Kill chickens with a knife?" Lin Yue said with a smile, "It's enough to have us juniors, and there is no need for him to be a veteran." ”
"Hehe, I'm afraid that this veteran can't do without guarding Xiao Pass, right?" Xue Jinshan said with a smile.
"Hahaha!" Lin Yue laughed, "Xiao Guan can't do without Old General Yunfei, and Yan Yunguan can't do without you Brother Jinshan, otherwise, if you go out in person, you won't need my brother to go on such a trip." ”
"Hahaha, Ziyu is really a wonderful person!" Xue Jinshan also laughed, "Let's go, the face of this strong wind is hurting, we don't have to stay here, go to my place to drink!" ”
"Uh...... It's not like the two of us going to drink right now, right? Lin Yue said, "This unit hasn't passed the test yet." ”
"Come on, I'm not afraid of the door open, what are you afraid of?" Xue Jinshan took his hand and strode down the tower.
The 50,000 Yanyun army died down, and the unarmed ones were divided into ten batches to pass the customs one after another, and the Black Dragon Guard was full of swords and guns, ready to fight.
But because the military orders on both sides were extremely strict, the process was also very smooth, without any obstacles, and the Yanyun army that passed the pass ran directly to Wolong Pass, and did not stop for a while, so as not to cause misunderstanding.
After the 50,000 soldiers and horses passed, it was the logistics baggage troops, and the carts, mules, horses, and camel caravans that could not be seen at a glance flowed endlessly, and it was not until midnight that they finally finished.
Xue Jinshan sent Lin Yue, and immediately sent scouts to infiltrate Yanyun County to investigate, and the news that came back was that Yanyun's other armies did not show any signs of mobilization, and the nearest northern border guard department to us was also far away in Xuanming Prefecture, Bailongjiang.
Xue Jinshan was silent after hearing the report, and just sighed softly.
The sun is setting, the sunset is like blood, the wall of Wolong Guanxi City is reflected in a piece of blood red, the city is already full of corpses, but the siege has not stopped.
Xu Zhisheng came to the city tower in person, led the soldiers to fight fiercely for three days and three nights, more than 10,000 white dragon elites, more than half of the casualties have been killed, he himself was also hit by several arrows, blood-stained brocade robes, but refused to take a step down from the city.
His White Dragon Guard is certainly an elite, but Duan Fengnian's Langya army is also a warrior, and its combat power is not much inferior, despite the heavy casualties, the momentum of the siege is still rapid, and the wave of charge is like a huge wave, which will impact the strong city wall of Wolong Pass with thousands of holes and crumbling.
Seeing the blazing bonfire burning under the city, he knew that the Langya army would still attack tonight, and Duan Fengnian also knew that the key to this battle was to take Wolong Pass before the arrival of reinforcements from the Great Zhou!
Therefore, without sparing any troops, regardless of casualties, more than 100,000 people attacked day and night in turn with the method of wheel warfare, with a posture of not breaking the city and not giving up.
Xu Zhisheng and the 10,000 White Dragon Guards under his command all played with their lives, but in the face of the opponent's absolute strength, they still seemed powerless.
After all, there are 200,000 people in the Langya army, and the large battalions are continuous, all over the mountains, and as far as the eye can see, the enemy troops in the whole city look like they feel deeply desperate.
Xu Zhisheng calculated, the other party also suffered at least more than 15,000 casualties, but his own side also suffered about 8,000 casualties, and the 200,000 army suffered 10,000 casualties or 10,000 casualties, which would not hurt his muscles and bones at all, but he only had 10,000 people in total, and most of the casualties were actually equivalent to being disabled.
But reinforcements have not yet arrived.
This is actually within his expectations, although Yanyun Pass, which is not far away, has Xue Jinshan's soldiers and horses, but he does not dare to send a soldier and a pawn to come, because compared to the Langya army, the Yanyun army is even more terrifying!
If you take advantage of the emptiness of Yanyun Pass and suddenly attack on a large scale, then the situation will really be uncontrollable. Therefore, it is better to lose Wolong Pass, and Yanyun Pass must not have the slightest mistake.
Duan Fengnian's rebellion was extremely sudden, and the imperial court was also caught off guard, and in a hurry, it was impossible to send strong support.
The garrison troops of the Beijing division must not move, and the nearest Shanzuo is also involved in the battle, and they are still too busy to protect themselves, and it is impossible to send troops and horses over.
Mobilizing reinforcements from other places is relatively far away, and when they come, I'm afraid it's only a month later, can Wolong Pass last a month?
Looking at this situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for a day!
The only thing I was referring to was the 20,000 White Dragon Guards in Haining Bay, but when they came over, I was afraid it would be ten days later......
In fact, from a military point of view, there is no point in holding Wolong Pass, because it can't be held at all, rather than this, it is better to withdraw first, at least to save the lives of thousands of soldiers......
But there was no order, and he did not dare to retreat at all, and the order has not come until now, and it is estimated that it will not come.
In other words, he Xu Zhisheng and the thousands of extremely tired soldiers under his command had only one way to die.
"General, we don't have many bows and arrows." A subordinate general said astringently.
"Well, how many are left?" Xu Zhisheng said.
"Actually, there is no one." The general grinned wryly, "The muskets are all broken, and if they are not broken, they are useless, the ammunition has long been used up, all the cannons have been blown up, and the wood and lime have been used up......"
