Chapter 500: Siege of Fengcheng

When Huyantuo was still dreaming of taking Fengcheng, he only saw his Beiyi soldiers and horses turn around and impact his own people.

Behind the Beiyi soldiers, there were Anxi soldiers, not only did they not climb the city wall to defend the city, but they opened the city gate and rushed over. Beiyi himself was first attacked by his own men and horses, and then was hacked by the Anxi army, with heavy casualties.

5,000 men and horses, wanting to capture the capital of Anxi, is really a bit of a fool's dream.

This was said by the King of Anthy himself, and it is true. Anxi and Beiyi have been attacking each other many times, and even if the recruits from Beidi and Dingliao are thrown to the land of Anxi, they can grow up quickly.

As for the two thousand Beiyi in the west of Fengcheng City, they had already been slaughtered before they even reached the city gate. On the side of Dongcheng, the guard general Fu Qitong looked around, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see a shadow of Beiyi soldiers and horses.

"I don't have the guts, phew!" Fu Qitong is also a strong general, he is not afraid of fighting at all, and no one comes, which seems a little boring.

Outside the gate of Nancheng, a deep forest was windless, and many trees were swaying, startling a burst of birds. Apparently there are people hiding in this forest, and there are quite a few of them.

"Master Duan, why did you take us on a detour here?" An adjutant general looked at Duan Tong suspiciously.

Duan Tong is the identity of the Central Plains, and everyone in Beiyi is well-known. Even if he is already one of the four mastiffs, there are still not many Beiyi people who can accept him, let alone how many can afford him.

"Do you want to make meritorious contributions?" Duan Tong did not answer the adjutant general's words, but asked him.

"Yes. But Master Duan hasn't said why he brought us here. "The lieutenant general has already put his hand on the hilt of the sword, three thousand men are not many, but it is not a small number. If this Duan Tong didn't answer his question, or took them to surrender, he would slaughter him with a knife and turn around to attack the east gate of Fengcheng, which would be unambiguous.

Duan Tong glanced at the lieutenant general's hand holding the hilt of the sword, and said, "I advise you not to act rashly, although we have already touched Fengcheng, but once we are discovered, we will all die here." ”

Duan Tong took advantage of the fact that Hu Yantuo led his troops to attack Fengcheng, and quietly led his troops to bypass the east gate of Fengcheng, and went straight to the south gate, hiding in this forest, waiting quietly.

"If Master Duan is afraid of death, we have to go back." The lieutenant general didn't move lightly, but he didn't want to hide here like a mouse with Duan Tong anymore. If they go back and be known, they will be cowards who avoid war, let alone in the army, and then even the tribe will have no place for them.

Duan Tong said with a smile: "10,000 people want to take down Fengcheng? You have also fought Anthy many times in previous years, and you know the victory, defeat, death and injury. Now think about it, can 10,000 people take Fengcheng? Need I say more? ”

The deputy general was silent, twenty years ago, several powerful tribes in Beiyi united with an army of 200,000, all of which were pressed to the foot of Fengcheng, wanting to take Fengcheng in one go, march into Anxi, and then plot against the Central Plains. I didn't want to, I was like a bamboo all the way, but when I arrived at the foot of Fengcheng, I encountered a fiasco.

The 200,000 army surrounded the four gates of Fengcheng, and it was difficult to take it for two months. In the end, the reinforcements from other cities in Anxi and the north were surrounded outside, and the soldiers and horses in the city charged at the right time, dividing and strangling all the 200,000 troops, with countless casualties.

In the end, only less than 20,000 horses fled back to Beiyi, and this battle was fought for nearly 20 years, and Beiyi did not dare to look south, only occasionally thousands of people would come to harass the people and rob some money, food, and property. As long as he encounters the defenders of Anxi, he will flee to the north, fearing the army like a tiger.

"What do you mean by that passage now? Please make it clear! The lieutenant came back to his senses and asked insistently.

Duan Tong pointed to the south and said: "There are only 7,000 soldiers and horses in a full fight, and it is impossible to shake Fengcheng in the slightest. General Huyanto's move is tantamount to a moth to a fire. But we have to make this offensive of General Huyan work! ”

"When the matter in the north was settled and the city was relaxed, we went out of the woods and quietly set out to the south, putting up more flags along the way. When the city in the south saw us, they would definitely think that something had happened to Fengcheng and send troops to save us. Duan Tong stopped and looked at the lieutenant general.

The deputy general didn't understand, but he didn't want to show his cowardice, so he looked at Duan Tong directly, making him feel bored, and then said: "When we wait for the reinforcements to go out of the city, we will enter the city and occupy the rear city, and Fengcheng will not be difficult to take!" Duan Tong's eyes flashed with a little excitement.

"But we only have 3,000 men, General Huyan... It must be difficult to support us, and we will not be trapped and die in Anxi? The deputy general was a little surprised, six thousand people went to fight Fengcheng, and this deputy general had already guessed the victory or defeat of Huyantuo in his heart.

"We still have 140,000 troops!" Duan Tong chuckled.

The adjutant general frowned and looked at Duan Tong, and at this time, there was no clear hostility in his eyes, more doubt: "Lord Duan, have you forgotten that Lord Huyan has gone to Dingliao with a large army." ”

"Lord Huyan really went to Dingliao? I don't think so. Wait, and in three days there will be news. Lord Huyan will lead a large army to counterattack Fengcheng, and Fengcheng is in danger! Duan Tong said very confidently.

The adjutant general was suspicious, but seeing that Duan Tong had neither slipped away alone nor reported the news, he had to press down on his doubts and decided to wait for three days to see if it was accurate.

The sun was gradually setting, and the Anxi soldiers who pursued out returned victoriously, and in front of the war horse of the first horseman, a head was tied and thrown around. It was Hu Yantuo's head, and he still had that stunned expression on his face, and he couldn't believe that he was going to die until he died.

The result of waiting for this head is to be hung on the north gate of Fengcheng and demonstrate.

The news went with the wind and reached Hu Yanlan, who was tiptoeing over, and after Hu Yanlan's short shock, she couldn't help but have a trace of joy on her face.

"Is there only the head of General Huyanto? Duan Tong is dead? Hu Yanlan pretended to be sad and asked the spies.

"I didn't see Lord Duan, I only saw the head of General Huyan." The spies reported truthfully.

Duan Tong is one of the four mastiffs, and in front of Hu Yanlan, who is also a member of the four mastiffs, the spies still expressed their basic respect for the four mastiffs.

"Damn the Central Plains! The order will go down, and the army will follow me straight to Fengcheng to avenge General Huyantuo and Lord Duan! ”

Allocate 10,000 soldiers and horses to kill themselves, this is Qi Wu's evil idea.

The drastic changes in the Central Plains and the self-occupation of each other was the best time for Beiyi to lead his army south. With the strength of Beiyi now, going south to the Central Plains has no problem in Qi Wukuo's heart. Now there is only one problem, that is, this Central Plains man in the Beiyi army.

In fact, over the years, there have been many people who have fled from the Central Plains to Beiyi to surrender to Chengcheng, either border guards or outlaws. However, even if such people go to Beiyi, they can only be a pawn and wait for dispatch, and in the next battle, they will be pioneers and die in the hands of their own people.

But Duan Tong is different, he is now one of the four mastiffs and is in a high position. He can also know the military situation in the Beiyi army, if he throws back to the Central Plains, he is afraid that it will be difficult to say who will kill the deer.

Qi Wukuo also found the Great Khan Meng Mulie and proposed to get rid of this person first. But Meng Mulie laughed it off, and only said that this person must be of great use.

As the most loyal courtier of the Great Khan of Beiyi, Qi Wukuo felt that it was necessary to wipe out this threat first. So, he found Hu Yanlan, a Beiyi think tank, and Hu Yanlan hit it off with him.

Hu Yanlan didn't think that Duan Tong would be in any danger to Beiyi, she just wanted to see how many catties and taels this person could have, and she just wanted to see his true skills. What's more, this time, Qi Wukuo proposed to arrange the people of the Huyan tribe to Duan Tong, including his brother-in-law, Huyan Lan couldn't ask for it.

The Huyan tribe should die! Hu Yanlan had this idea in her heart all the time.

Soon, early the next morning, the 140,000 army came to the city of Fengcheng, the battle flag hunted in the wind, and the cold light of swords and guns shimmered.

"Lord Huyan, now attacking the city?" Trojan Ma leaned over and asked.

Hu Yanlan glanced at him: "Hahahaha, can't we use our war horses to hit the city wall?" General Mi Muma is a little restless, wait for me to lead the troops and horses to surround Fengcheng, the general led 30,000 soldiers and horses, detoured to the east, set up an ambush, ready to ambush the reinforcements coming from the north. ”

Mi Trojan Horse is no stranger to this method of warfare, Beiyi lacks siege equipment, and it is indispensable to attack fortified cities with this kind of siege and reinforcement tactics. Then drag the captured captives to the city and kill them brutally to deter the defenders in the city, which has always had a good effect.

Mi Muma led an army of 30,000 to the east on his own, and Hu Yanlan saw him leave, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer. If Duan Tong was still alive and saw the dense Trojan horse again, he would definitely know that he was put in a position by Beiyi. At that time, it is unknown whether Duan Tong would kill people in anger or return to the Central Plains.

"I'm really looking forward to it!" Hu Yanlan put away her smile and pointed the horsewhip in her hand at Fengcheng: "Wai!" ”

The mighty Beiyi army rushed to Fengcheng like a tide, and it was indeed like a tide, dividing the city, and the left and right sides were encircling, wrapping Fengcheng tightly.

Zhang Li, the king of Anxi, was overlooking the Beiyi soldiers and horses under the city, this was not the first time he had seen such a magnificent scene, full of thousands of people, and there was no edge.

"The last time I saw it... Dad is still there..."Zhang Lizheng said with emotion.

Several figures flashed in the forest outside the south of Fengcheng City, and went back to report and said: "Report, Lord Duan, our Beiyi soldiers and horses have surrounded Fengcheng, and the number of people is tens of thousands outside the southern city gate alone!" ”

The deputy general looked at Duan Tong in some surprise, he didn't understand whether he was a human or a god, and what he said was not bad at all.

"Lord Duan, where are we going now? Continue south? This time, the lieutenant was much more restrained, and his expression was no longer so hostile.

"Well, let's go! To the south of Fengcheng is Zhongcheng. "None of the 3,000 men and horses were clamoring to turn around and fight, and they all followed the footsteps one by one and headed for Midtown.
