When Lao Ge heard this, he laughed, "You are still young, and you have a chance." This time I repelled the Liao, if you want, I will go to greet your leader and recruit you into the Yang family as a song. When you get to Tianbo Yang Mansion, you will be able to see the eldest young master often. I can't guarantee that I can still work under the eldest young master in the future. The second dog said excitedly: "Really? ”

Lao Ge glared and said dissatisfiedly: "When did your Uncle Ge lie to you?" The second dog scratched his head and laughed silly. The other little ones shouted one by one: "We are also willing to ......" Lao Ge waved his hand with disgust. "Just you, you also want to join the Yang family? Do you think the Yang family's koji is rotten leaves? ”

A little guy patted his chest and snorted: "We're not bad, in terms of the ability to kill the enemy, the second dog can't compare to me." Old Ge Lezi smiled and said: "Even if you have the ability, it depends on your performance." If you're a little better, maybe I'll be kind and give you a chance. "The little ones are also clever people, and they immediately understood the meaning of Lao Ge's words." Uncle Ge, wait, I found a rabbit nest yesterday, and I'll get you a rabbit meat to eat tomorrow. ”

Lao Ge nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's still you kid on the road." The other little ones also expressed their desire to make something delicious for Lao Ge. At this time, an old pawn who was older than Lao Ge and had one less ear appeared here.

As soon as he appeared, the air around him seemed to turn cold. "Get out of here." The old pawn shouted, and the little ones fled in fright. Lao Ge looked at the old pawn indifferently, and grinned: "Boss, what are you trying to scare them, scare them, and no one will get me meat to eat in the future." ”

The old pawn glared at Lao Ge and scolded: "Lao Tzu doesn't want to watch a group of little guys be deceived by you." Lao Ge defended: "How did I lie to them? The old man snorted coldly, and said in a low voice: "What is the situation now, you are a veteran, you can't fail to see it." Can you fulfill the wish you made to your children? When it came to the situation, the optimistic Lao Ge couldn't laugh.

As veterans, they have long known how bad the situation at Yanmen Pass is. There are no reinforcements inside, and there is a strong enemy outside. It's almost a death-saving situation. Lao Ge put on an ugly smile on his face and said: "I followed Lao Shuai at the age of seventeen, and I am forty-seven this year, and I have fought for thirty years." Back then, there were more than 3,000 brothers with me. By now, there are less than fifty people left.

One by one, the brothers fell in front of me. I have taken life and death lightly. Compared with those dead brothers, I have lived more than thirty years longer, even if I have earned it, I have lived enough. Even if I die in battle, I have no regrets. Lao Ge paused, the smile on his face was full of bitterness, and his voice was a little embarrassed, "It's just ...... These children are too young, smaller than all my cubs. Watching them die with us makes me feel bad in my heart.

I don't have what it takes to guarantee that they'll survive. We can only find a way to give them courage and give them a hope to try to live. After saying that, the tears in the corners of Lao Ge's eyes rolled down. The old pawn also burst into tears, and his voice was slightly hoarse, "Back then, I was also a seventeen-year-old handsome. Back then, we had 4,000 brothers following Lao Shuai. I'm left alone. ”

The old pawn looked at the backs of the young men who were afraid of him and sighed, "They ...... It's too small, indeed...... It's too small...... "It seems that he saw himself back then, and his brothers. The old pawn choked up and said, "It's too small...... It's so small that I don't know why I want to kill the enemy, and I don't know who I'm fighting for...... "The old man is fifty-one years old this year, and he is already at the age of retirement in Bianjing City." At his age, he no longer has the heart to fight for the emperor, for the Yang family, or for fame and fortune.

The reason why he is still on the front line of the battlefield is for the same reason. The people behind it, the blood flowing in their bodies...... For the nation. ……

"Liaogou is here." I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked outside. Sure enough, outside the Yanmen Pass, a group of people who were pressed by the black pressure pressed towards the Yanmen Pass. The old pawn glanced at it, and his brows furrowed. "The one who walked in front was the Han people from Liaodi." The pawn immediately judged the identity of the enemy who was at the forefront.

A group of old and weak women and children with sticks in their hands or with their bare hands ran towards Yanmen Pass, crying and roaring. In Liaodi, the strong Han people, those are all war reserves, just like grain. The old, weak, women and children are a group of people who can be abandoned at any time. When these people die, the Liao people will not feel distressed at all, and will even drink to celebrate. Because there is one less waste that consumes food. Of course, driving the old and weak women and children to attack the city is also a means.

Once, there were kind-hearted guards, in order not to slaughter the old and weak women and children, Kaecheng let them in. Then he was attacked by the enemy soldiers hiding in it. This is also the origin of these four words. "To kill or not to kill?" The Volcano Army's soldiers, who had never seen such a scene, asked.

The old pawn closed his eyes in pain, gritted his teeth and said, "Kill!" After giving the order to kill the enemy, the old pawn turned to Lao Ge and said, "Sound the gong to warn." "Dangdang~" sounded with a rapid gong. The Yanmen Gate was closed, and everyone knew that the war was coming. Lao Yang arrived at the north gate of Yanmen Pass and the city gate building as soon as possible.

Glancing at the old and weak women and children under the city, Lao Yang directly gave the order to kill the enemy. It's not that he's ruthless, it's not that he's vicious. Because at this time, there is no room for mercy. Once the heart is soft, which leads to the loss of Yanmen Pass and allows the Liao people to break into the Central Plains, then there will be more old and weak women and children who die.

"Whoosh~" rounds of arrows rained down. The people who closed the gate of the wild goose fell like wheat harvesting. Human life, at this time, seems to be minimal. Like grass mustard, a large piece of it passed away. This is war.

Blood! Cruel! Sorrowful! "Help us!" "Save us, we are Han!" "Let us in!" "Give us a way out." “……”

Under the city pass, the shouts of the old and weak women and children, and the hearts of the volcano army soldiers on the city pass were broken. However, even if they burst into tears, they could not be merciful, and they would even act more decisively to end the suffering of the old and weak women and children in the city as soon as possible.

"Yang Yanzhao! You open your eyes and take a good look, who are you killing? "Yang Yanzhao, in the face of so many old and weak women and children, are you really good?" "Yang Yanzhao, aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven?" "Dog thief! Yang Yanzhao! You dog thief! "You don't have the ability to defeat the Liao, but you are slaughtering us Han people here. You're not as good as a pig or a dog. "General Yang, I beg you, open the door and let us in."

"Han thief, you don't have the ability to kill the Liao people, but you have the ability to kill the people, your conscience let the dog eat it?" "Master Yang, Grandpa Yang, please, let us in......" "......"

The sounds of abuse, pleading, and crying entered Yang Yanzhao's ears one after another, and Lao Yang felt the pain in his heart. The common people are eager to live, they don't care, and they don't understand the importance of guarding the gates. Their invective, Yang Yanzhao will not blame at all.

The one-sided slaughter lasted for an hour. All the soldiers of the Volcano Army on the Yanmen Gate were like walking around in the Infernal Hell, and their conscience was tortured fiercely. It's a mental torture that's far more devastating than physical torture.

In front of Brother Yeluwolf, the commander of the country, a few human lives are nothing. As long as you can open the gateway to the Central Plains and invade the land of the Central Plains, all the sacrifices are worth it. The Khitan Eight Divisions, from a small nomadic tribe on the grassland, have developed into a huge country today, and this is how they have come step by step.

Brother Yelu is determined to win Yanmen Pass, and Li Chongzhi is also making unremitting efforts for this. Yang Yanzhao is the defensive side, and his troops are far inferior to others. This is a very painful thing for Yang Yanzhao. The enemy made a feint, and the volcanic army soldiers in Yanmen Pass lost more than 600 people.

Today, there are more than 5,000 soldiers left in the Volcano Army. The number of soldiers of the Volcano Army is decreasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye, and the enemies outside the city are also decreasing on a large scale. But comparing the forces of both sides, the enemy can afford to spend it completely. As soon as the battle stopped, Yang Yanzhao hurriedly asked the soldiers of the Volcano Army to step up their rest. The people in Yanmen Pass began to continue to carry the materials to the city in a circular manner.

The minfu led by "General Yang......" is an old man named Fang Boss and an old Qin man. The children raised by Qinchuan in the eight hundred miles are all lean and powerful, but they are full of resilience. "What's wrong?" Yang Yanzhao was listening to Yang Gui's report on the military situation, saw Boss Fang, and asked casually. Fang Lao rubbed his hands uneasily, and said honestly: "General Yang, there is not enough rolling wood in the city. ”

Yang Yanzhao was stunned, frowned, and said: "There are not enough rolling wood, then go to the mountains to cut them, the logs all over the mountains are not enough for you to cut?" Boss Fang smiled bitterly: "General, since this Yanmen Pass has become a border pass to fight against the Liao, the trees on the surrounding mountains have been cut down for many years, and they have long been cut down. ”

Boss Fang squinted at the bare hills on both sides of Yanmen Pass, and sighed: "Look at the mountains near here, where are there any foot-tall trees?" Lao Yang said coldly: "If there is no nearby, then look elsewhere." Boss Fang spread his hands helplessly and said, "The nearest forest is also ten miles outside Yanmen Pass." "Ten miles?"

Lao Yang was a little out of shape, and it took a lot of time to transport the logs from ten miles away. And now it's getting late, once these people get out of Yanmen Pass, if they lose their restraint and start to escape, it is impossible for him to send the soldiers on Yanmen Pass to restrain and arrest them.

Boss Fang also saw this, so he reported the matter to Lao Yang. Otherwise, with his dull temperament, he would have taken people out to cut wood a long time ago. "What do you say?" Yang Yanzhao began to ask for the opinion of Boss Fang.

Boss Fang rubbed his hands and muttered: "In the city, many brothers have died, and many barracks have been vacated. Otherwise, let's demolish these barracks, and the wood on the beams is all good material, and it will not be a problem to make rolling logs. The stones used to cast the walls can also be brought up to defend the city, and it can also save the time of the brothers to dig stones. ”

Boss Fang has a straight temperament, and once he says it, he won't hide it. He continued: "The people saved time, and they were able to go up to the city walls to help the Volcano Army defend the city. "Boss Fang's proposal is good, but Lao Yang has his own considerations. The people in Yanmen Pass can be said to be the last line of defense in the pass. Yang Yanzhao wants to keep these people and use them when it is critical. Yang Yanzhao muttered: "You go down first and take the people to demolish those empty barracks in the city." As for involving the people in the defense of the city, I'll think about it again. ”

Boss Fang nodded, smiled innocently, and turned around to prepare to go down to the city. "Wait a minute." Yang Yanzhao stopped him, Boss Fang turned around, and heard Lao Yang say: "When you pass by the city under the urn, help me call Deputy General Wang and ask him to come over." "Boss Fang went down to the city and found Wang Gui guarding the gate with his soldiers in Weng City. After a while, Wang Gui went up to the city wall and arrived in front of Yang Yanzhao. "The last general, Wang Gui, see the general."

Yang Yanzhao waved his hand, motioned for Wang Gui to get up, and then asked, "What do you think of the situation?" Wang Gui's face was solemn, and he said: "The situation is not optimistic, the enemy does not hesitate to make a feint attack with the lives of 30,000 people, I am afraid that there will be a big move in a while." Yang Yanzhao groaned: "Do you have any other ideas?" Wang Gui thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Otherwise, let it in, empty city plan?" Yang Yanzhao decisively vetoed and said: "No, once you let go of the urn city, the enemy will rush up at that time." With our little strength, we are not capable of fighting the enemy at all. ”

Wang Gui frowned and said, "Then there is only one thing left to defend it." "Father, the enemy is rushing over in a while, I can lead a team of people to kill them and mess up their formation." Yang Gui asked for help. Lao Yang hesitated, "Look again, look again." "Before the Yanmen Gate, the fighting subsided for an hour. Li Chongzhi once again set off the flames of war. Li Chongzhi opened the way with catapults, and one by one the catapults were defeated in front, frantically throwing large stones into the Yanmen Pass.

Big stones fell on the Yanmen Gate, smashing out one gap after another in the city wall. Some of the Volcano Army soldiers who couldn't dodge were hit by rocks and turned into a puddle of flesh in an instant. "This attack by Liao Dog is very ferocious." There were not only catapults, but also siege crossbows. Li Chongzhu abandoned the unique siege characteristics of the siege crossbow and used the siege crossbow as a tool to kill the enemy. In short, the Liao attack was swift. The arrows on the city pass have been exhausted, so in the face of such long-range weapons, the Volcano Army can only be beaten passively.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and the Liao people had already killed the city. However, this time, they did not ride the ladder to the city, but stopped at a distance of 100 meters from Yanmen Pass. The short pause made the Volcano Army soldiers at the head of the city scratch their heads.

"Roar~" Immediately after, I saw in the distance, the servants of the Liao people, pushing more than a dozen huge frames of wooden structures, and walked steadily towards Yanmen Pass. When he saw this huge wooden frame, Lao Yang's eyes widened at the boss, and he shouted loudly: "Boarding car?!" "Boarding car. The Great Song Dynasty will be the supervisor of the latest development of the city's combat weapon. A weapon that can be used instead of a ladder to be erected on the city wall and lift the enemy outside the city to a height of two feet.

At the same time, the city vehicle can also build a temporary one-zhang wide platform outside the city wall for the use of soldiers. That is to say, the wall of Yanmen Pass is three feet and three feet high, and the enemy can cross two zhang without effort. The remaining three feet will allow the enemy to easily climb to the top of the city.

Things like rolling wood and gravel lose a large part of their utility in front of the city car, and their lethality will be drastically reduced. "How could this thing appear in the hands of the Liao?" Wang Gui roared angrily. The Great Song Dynasty will supervise the research of the things, as the Great Song Dynasty army, the volcano army has not yet been equipped, but the Liao people used it first.

How could Wang Gui not be angry? Yang Yanzhao was also angry, and even the flames in his chest were burning. However, as the coach, he can't be as angry as Wang Gui. Yang Yanzhao gritted his teeth, blood dripping from his heart, and roared: "Recruit Yang Gui over." ”

Wang Gui was stunned and said, "Old handsome, let me go." Yang Yanzhao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "You are old, there are some things you can't do." Yang Gui had been on standby at the north gate of the city gate, and when he heard Yang Yanzhao's call, he quickly appeared in front of Lao Yang. Lao Yang stared at Yang Gui and said in a low voice: "Ben Shuai agreed to your previous suggestion and asked you to take someone out to kill." However, Ben Shuai has one condition. ”

"Father's command." "Wreck the boarding car." Yang Gui knelt on one knee, hugged his fists and said, "The last general will take the order." Yang Gui received the military order, got off the city wall, entered the urn city, and began to deploy the men who rushed out of the city to kill.

Yang Yanzhao was at the head of the city, staring at the approaching boarding car, and ordered Wang Gui. "You go and arrange it, order the soldiers up and down, and prepare the gun array. Defend the Yanmen Pass. "Wang Gui clenched his fists." The last general commanded. "The boarding car is getting closer.

When the boarding car hits the city wall of Yanmen Pass. Rows of spears appeared from the notches in the wall of Yanmen Pass, and the spears were staggered, forming a line of defense built by the tips of the spears. The Liao army, who had just been sent up by the boarding car, was stabbed in the eye by a spear. The Liao soldiers didn't seem to feel the death of their comrades, and took advantage of the gap where the spears of the Volcano Army soldiers were stuck in the bones of the Liao army's corpses, grabbed the spears, and ripped the Volcano Army soldiers off the city.

Then, the Liao army that rushed up from behind, picked up the scimitar in his hand, and split the corpses of the Volcano Army soldiers who fell on the boarding car. Under the cover of climbing vehicles, crossbows, and catapults, the Liao army became more and more courageous. The Volcano Army soldiers at the head of the city fought hard, but they were always outnumbered and suffered heavy casualties.

"Hahaha...... Okay, good, it's really a big gift, General Li is really impressive. Beggar replied, seeing that his subordinates had already killed the head of the city of Yanmen Pass, and immediately praised Li Chongzhi with joy.

Li Chongzhi heard the praise of Qidahar, and he was very proud in his heart. Heroes, there is a place for them to come into play. I, Li Chongzhu, will definitely become famous and successful here. Although he was proud in his heart, Li Chongzhi was still very deferential on the surface, and he smiled humbly: "Everything depends on the general's support, and the subordinates only rely on the general's majesty to provide a little bit of insignificant suggestions and methods." ”

"Good!" When he heard this, he was even more satisfied with Li Chongyu, and he patted his chest and said, "You are very interesting, and General Ben is very pleased." You can rest assured, if you win this battle, after returning to Beijing, General Ben will definitely protect you in front of the Queen Mother. In the future, our begging department will also support you. Li Chongzhi was overjoyed, patted the horse and said: "Thank you for the cultivation of the general." ”

On the top of the mountain in the distance, Yelu Hugo looked at the sharpness of the boarding car, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes. "It's an amazing siege weapon, it's a sharp weapon. With this sharp weapon in hand, in the future, my Liao Kingdom will have a few more chances of winning against the Great Song Dynasty. Xiao Tianzuo nodded and said, "It's indeed a good thing." This thing doesn't look like something from the Beggar Department. ”

Xiao Tianzuo Biao shouted in a huff: "Begging for Har's idiot, then this ability, there must be a master behind him." Brother Yelu Wolf put his hands behind his back and chuckled, "This king really wants to meet this master behind the beggar har. This master may save the king a lot of effort. Perhaps, he will take Yanmen Pass and surprise this king. ”

Xiao Tianzuo frowned and said, "Then our army ambushed behind the beggar department?" Yelu Hugo waved his hand and said, "It's out of the way." "King Qiyu, his subordinates have found out. The battle to conquer Yanmen Pass was all commanded by a man named Li Chongxu. And Jerushuge, who had sent out to investigate, fell down on one knee behind him to report it.

"Li Chongxue?" Brother Yelu repeated the name, looking puzzled. Xiao Tianzuo said loudly: "I know this person, he is the commander of Ma Bujun. Yelu Xiuge nodded slightly and smiled: "Since he is the commander of the Ma Bu army, then ask Xiao Duli to go over and have a look." "My subordinates are going to give orders."

Xiao Xuan Li is also a member of the Xiao clan, and in the Xiao clan, he has a higher status than Xiao Tianzuo and Xiao Tianyou. This person is quite favored by the Empress Dowager Xiao, and he is currently holding the title of the servant of the Liao State, and he is the husband of the Empress Dowager Xiao and the son-in-law of the late Tianshengzong of the Liao State, so he also has the title of Captain of the Brother and Horse on his head.

In the army, only Brother Yelu can crush him. And he happens to be Li Chongzhi's boss. When the Liao people are relaxed and happy. The situation when the gate of the wild goose closed became more and more tense. With the help of the sharp weapon of the boarding vehicle, the Liao army has overcome the obstacle of the gun array at the head of the city and successfully climbed to the top of the city.

Yang Yanzhao and Wang Gui, led the soldiers of the Volcano Army and launched a fierce battle with the Liao army. Yang Yanzhao took his father's big golden knife, which almost became a sharp weapon for harvesting lives, and countless Liao troops were killed. Many Liao troops were not his enemies, and they were split in half by him with a single sword.

"Drink~" Yang Yanzhao burst into tears, hacked another Liao soldier to death, turned his head and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Go and tell Yang Gui that you can attack." The soldiers guarding Lao Yang's side immediately passed Yang Yanzhao's order. Inside the urn city. Yang Gui was wearing heavy armor and holding a big gun, majestic and majestic. After receiving Yang Yanzhao's order to attack, Yang Gui raised the big gun in his hand with a solemn face, and roared: "Brothers, follow me to kill and kill happily." ”

"Open the gates!" "Open the gates!" "Open the gates!"

There were three bursts of shouts in a row, one higher than the other. Then, just when the Liao army outside the city was climbing the city car, the gate of Yanmen Pass suddenly opened. Under the stunned gaze of the Liao army, five hundred heavily armored cavalrymen in heavy armor, led by Yang Gui, suddenly rushed out of the door.

"Kill!" The heavily armored cavalry, facing the foot soldiers, was basically a massacre. The Liao army in front of them didn't need them to swing their knives and slash at all, and the heavily armored horses, as long as they rushed over, would knock the Liao army to the ground. The heavily armored cavalry that followed from behind would trample the Liao army into pulp.

Rushing and killing on the battlefield has always been Yang Gui's favorite thing. Yang Gui also has a lot of experience in this way. A small number of cavalry charged and killed a large number of foot soldiers, and killing the enemy was only the most basic purpose. The most important purpose is to break up the enemy's formation.

As long as the enemy's formation is out of order, the rhythm will be out of order, and the offensive will be out of order. When the city was closed, everyone's eyes were red, and everyone's clothes were wet. "Roar~" Someone couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar.

A barrage of roars followed. The Liao people don't care how tormented the volcano soldiers on the Yanmen Pass are. The Liao army, who followed behind the old and weak women and children, used the corpses of the old and weak women and children as a ladder to fill in the moat in front of Yanmen Pass. The Liao army carried ladders, pushed siege vehicles, set up siege crossbows, trampled on the corpses of old and weak women and children, and launched an attack on Yanmen Pass. At this time, Lao Yang did not hesitate and burst into applause.

"Kill!" The resentment in the hearts of the volcanic army soldiers at the head of the city needs to be vented, otherwise they will go crazy and even howl the camp. The red-eyed Volcano soldiers did not skimp on the bows and arrows in their hands. Rounds of arrows rained down on the Liao army.

"I'm running out of arrows." After Lao Ge shot the last arrow, he shouted. Yang Yanzhao made a straight face and ordered: "First put on the gold juice, rolling wood, and stone." "When the enemy army attacks the city, these three things are the most lethal. Once the enemy army climbs to the top of the city, then these three things are useless. A pot of boiling hot gold juice was poured down from the city.

The Liao army under the hot city screamed. Many Liao people who had climbed half of the city wall fell down. Huge logs are nailed with sharp iron nails. One by one, they rolled down from the city, killing and wounding countless Liao troops. Running out of wood and gold juice. The volcano soldiers at the head of the city will pick up the rocks and smash them down. The first attack of the Liao army was forcibly repelled by the soldiers of the Volcano Army.

A mile outside the city, Qidahar led his subordinates to watch Li Chongzhi fight. Seeing that his men and horses had been defeated, Qidahar frowned and asked Li Chongyu, "Why did you lose so quickly?" Li Chongzhi didn't seem to care about the success or failure of this time, he said with a smile: "General, this is just a temptation, the real attack is behind." ”

Beggar Har was stunned and said, "You transferred 30,000 Hanmin from me just to tempt?" Li replied, "Exactly." Beggar frowned, waved his hand, and said, "It's all old and weak women and children, and if they die, they will die." As long as my people don't die on such a large scale. Li Chongzhi flattered: "The subordinates also think so. Only then did these old and weak women and children go to temptation. Next, the subordinate prepared a big gift for Yang Yanzhao. ”

Beggar said, "Hurry up, let me see how big your gift is." Li Chongzhi bowed and said: "The subordinate will give the order to officially attack." Li Chongzhi commanded his servant's ear, and the Li servant left quietly. On the hillside two miles away, Yelu Xiuge and the Xiao family brothers were also watching the battle.

Xiao Tianzuo looked at the retreating Liao army and said sarcastically: "Begging for Har, people are soft and lying on their stomachs, and they are also soft in battle, what a waste." Xiao Tianzuo frowned and muttered: "I don't think it's like an attack, and it doesn't give full play to the combat effectiveness that the warriors of the beggar department should have." Brother Yelu nodded with a smile: "You are right, this is a very good feint of command." It's not like the handiwork of Beggar Har, he doesn't have such skills. Send someone down to find out who was in command of the battle. ”

Xiao Tianzuo was stunned and said, "This is a feint? Feint with the lives of 30,000 people? Brother Yelu said nonchalantly, "What about 30,000 people?" As long as you can win, it is understandable to fill in another 30,000. On the battlefield, victory or defeat is what matters. The king is looking forward to the next war......"

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
