Chapter 638: Zhao Mocheng Arrives
Zhang Chi nodded, and everyone began to move, and in an instant, ten thousand arrows were fired.
Although the Qiang people are extremely strong in combat, they are not good at wearing armor, and in their opinion, armor is very difficult to move.
But in the battle on the plains, the archers are very important, and the armor is mainly used to shoot arrows by archers, and at this time the Qiang people are completely unable to resist the volley of ten thousand arrows.
Those who were still climbing upstairs fell like raindrops, but the arduous battle for the defense of Mengzhou had only just begun.
This is only a one-sided attack, and the remaining three city walls are attacked by the enemy, although people have been sent to take the lead, but the troops are obviously insufficient.
"General, the western wall is about to be breached, the general should think of a way."
This is the third time that the city wall in front can hold on, and the three walls have already come to ask for help, and they are about to be breached.
Zhang Chi also showed a helpless expression, he was now completely unable to divide his forces to rescue the three city walls, after all, the front was still under fierce attack, and he couldn't resist it at all.
"It's over, this time Mengzhou City is in a catastrophe, and it can't resist the other party's attack at all, what should I do next?"
Zhang Ji was also very helpless, after all, he had already thought of a solution, and this siege battle had been fought for three whole days.
The arduous and excellent defense of the city also made the soldiers tired, and if it continued like this, it was only a matter of time before the city of Mengzhou was broken.
"Abandon the city and go to Yangjiang, there are still 40,000 soldiers and horses in Yangjiang, and Yangjiang is well defended and can withstand it for a while."
Yun Xiaoshuang made a decision, with a resolute expression on her face.
"What? Abandoned city? What about Mengzhou City, your money village has just opened, and most of Mengzhou's money and grain are in Mengzhou City, so you won't evacuate at all. ”
Hearing the word abandonment of the city, Zhang Ji thought that he had heard it wrong, and the abandonment of the city could be said to have completely abandoned Mengzhou.
Although Yangjiang City is well defended and there are 40,000 defenders, without Mengzhou City, the enemy will drive straight into Mengzhou, and Yangjiang will not be able to stand it for long.
The most important thing is that when the people were just evacuated, they did not take the money and food away, once the city of Mengzhou was lost, the enemy would be replenished, and most of the money and food in Mengzhou would be almost defeated.
"I don't want to abandon the city, I can't bear the money village I just opened, but I can't help it, stay in the green mountains, I'm not afraid of no firewood, abandoning the city is the best choice now."
"Continue to stay here, it's only a matter of time before the city of Mengzhou is broken, and when the enemy comes in, we can't leave if we want to."
"The most important thing for us now is to wait for reinforcements from the capital, as long as the reinforcements arrive, they can fight back, so just delay the time."
Of course, Yun Xiaoshuang didn't want to abandon the city, so she finally opened the money bank, and now she has to give up.
But there is no other way not to abandon the city, and it is a dead end to continue to persist like this, and you must wait for the reinforcements from the capital to arrive before you can fight back.
Hearing her words, Zhang Ji and Zhang Chi glanced at each other, and they both saw deep helplessness in each other's eyes.
They don't want to abandon the city, but there is no way, as Yun Xiaoshuang said, abandoning the city now is the best choice, otherwise it will be too late to abandon the city when the enemy attacks.
"Forget it, let's abandon the city and go to Yangjiang to wait for reinforcements, I don't believe it, these people can take down the whole of Mengzhou."
Zhang Ji finally made a decision, although he was very reluctant, but he couldn't lose a lot because of a small loss, and he didn't lose many troops now.
Joining forces with the defenders of Yangjiang will still have a chance to hold Yangjiang, and when the reinforcements from the capital arrive, everything will be easy to say.
And just when they were about to abandon the city and evacuate Mengzhou City, Li Zhu saw the dust and smoke in the distance, and was immediately surprised.
"Madam, look, it seems that reinforcements are coming."
Li Zhu patted Yun Xiaoshuang, she quickly looked up, and sure enough, behind the enemy army, bursts of dust and smoke dispersed, and at a glance, it was an army of soldiers and horses.
From that direction, it could only be reinforcements from the capital, she was suddenly pleasantly surprised, judging from that speed, at the latest, the reinforcements would arrive in ten minutes at the latest.
"Haha, you don't have to abandon the city, our reinforcements are coming, everyone cheer up, as long as you hold on for ten minutes, you can wait for reinforcements."
Yun Xiaoshuang looked at them excitedly, and when she heard her words, everyone looked into the distance and cheered.
The soldiers regained their spirits, and although their stomachs were already hungry, everyone shouted that they were hungry, but they cheered up and continued to defend the city.
Gao Yang also seemed to have noticed something wrong behind him, and hurriedly issued an order to attack the city with all his might, as long as Mengzhou City was defeated, he would be able to resist the reinforcements behind.
Both sides are like chicken blood, while attacking the city, while defending the city, the entire Mengzhou city has countless casualties, blood flowed like a river, and the ground is full of ruins and broken walls.
The Mengzhou army on the city wall was angry with the enemy, and even had no equipment to defend the city, but they used crowd tactics to scare the enemy back.
In this way, the defense of the city lasted for ten minutes, and the city gate had just been slammed open, and the reinforcements had arrived, and they rushed directly into Gao Yang's troops to fight.
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, get me a good weapon, go in and fight, avenge our dead brothers, don't let any of them go."
Seeing the appearance of reinforcements, which made Gao Yang's troops chaotic, Zhang Chi suddenly wiped a handful of blood from his face, and also became excited.
The soldiers all howled loudly, this kind of scene made Yun Xiaoshuang's blood boil when he saw it, and his eyes were moist.
She had participated in wars, but it was the first time that she fought in the border passes and in the Lanhan grassland, and this was the first time that she had fought sieges and fortifications.
At this time, she finally knew how hard the siege battle was, in order to defend the city, they suffered countless casualties, and finally defended it, and waited for reinforcements, which was really moving.
Zhang Chi directly picked up his gun and mounted his horse, rushed out of the city directly with his troops, and entered Gao Yang's troops, and attacked the reinforcements before and after, so that Gao Yang could not take care of the whole thing.
"Gao Yang, take your life."
Zhang Chi shouted, his face covered in blood, like a god of war who had rushed out of hell.
Gao Yang was also frightened when he saw Zhang Chi like this, and hurriedly raised his gun to resist.
But one is because the morale of the reinforcements has increased greatly, and the other is because they are very flustered by the front and rear attacks, and they directly make a judgment.
The spear in Zhang Chi's hand was like a swimming dragon, attacking towards Gao Yang.
And Gao Yang was worried because he was caught in the front and back, and he didn't dare to resist at all, so he parried a few times casually and turned his horse and ran back.
He already knew that he couldn't do it, and wanted to escape, but how could Zhang Chi give him this opportunity.
"If you want to run, ask me if I can answer the gun in my hand."
Zhang Chi snorted coldly expressionlessly, drove the horse under his crotch to chase after him, and soon came behind Gao Yang, and a shot pierced directly into his heart and fell off the horse.
"Gao Yang is dead, don't surrender quickly, otherwise there will be no corpse in the same body."
He cut off Gao Yang's head and held it high, then said loudly.
The people brought by Gao Yang didn't dare to resist when they saw this situation, and they all laid down their weapons and surrendered, after all, the main generals were already dead.
And being caught between the front and back, continuing to resist is only a dead end, and no one can still smile in the face of death.
No one is not afraid of death, so in the face of the threat of death, the troops brought by Gao Yang all raised their hands and surrendered.
The victory in the defense of the city made the soldiers cheer more than once, and Zhang Chi was also very happy.
At this time, a man and a horse rushed towards the city like crazy, and the person on the horse was tall and directly skipped Zhang Chi.
Yun Xiaoshuang was relieved when she saw the victory of the war, and her money village finally hugged it, endured her tired body, and walked down the city.
And just as she was walking down the city wall, she suddenly saw a horse galloping towards her and stopped in front of her.
A tall figure dismounted and wrapped her in his arms, and she could even feel the rapid heartbeat of this person.
Originally, she was startled and wanted to struggle, but soon felt this familiar body temperature and breathing, that's right, the person holding her was Zhao Mocheng.
When he received the message of Mengzhou asking for help, he was very anxious and wanted to fly to Mengzhou, but he wanted to reorganize the army with the eighth prince and go with the troops.
He was very worried about Yun Xiaoshuang's safety, after all, who won and lost in this kind of siege battle completely depended on willpower, and he was worried that Yun Xiaoshuang would die.
So after solving the crisis in Mengzhou City, he rushed into the city as soon as possible to check Yun Xiaoshuang's safety.
"It's great that you're okay, it's great."
Zhao Mocheng muttered in his mouth, he was really afraid that something would happen to Yun Xiaoshuang, but fortunately, she didn't have an accident.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine, don't worry, this kind of scene can't scare me, but it's good that you came in time, otherwise we really can't support it."
The person who could protect her came, and her body suddenly softened, leaning softly on Zhao Mocheng's body.
Three days of intense concentration made her exhausted, and her body was already tired.
"Frost, are you alright? What's wrong with you? ”
When Zhao Mocheng saw her suddenly fall, he was immediately frightened and hurriedly helped her up.
"I'm fine, just a little out of strength and tired, let's go, let's go out and have a look."
Yun Xiaoshuang shook her head, supported her body, and then staggered a few steps, although she really wanted to rest immediately, she still had to go out and have a look.
At this time, she felt that her body was light, as if she was floating, and it turned out that Zhao Mocheng hugged her horizontally.
"You...... You put me down, what are you doing here? ”
Yun Xiaoshuang was suddenly ashamed, she could feel that the people around her were looking at them, and lowered her head shyly.
"You are too tired, I hold you, don't worry, with me, I won't let you fall, even if you fall, it will fall on me."
Zhao Mocheng said in a deep voice, which made Yun Xiaoshuang very moved, it was really not easy to hear such a moving situation from the mouth of Zhao Mocheng, a wooden man.
