Chapter 468, Loyal and Brave Hero
Seeing that the Yanyun army under the mountain was constantly beating drums and shouting, Song He only ordered the officers and men of all armies to strictly defend and strictly prohibit fighting. Suddenly, a Yanyun warrior galloped out of the military formation, came to a flat ground halfway up the mountainside, and shouted in a thunderous voice: "Tubo's gray grandson, don't you dare to come out of the fucking turtle shell?" Come out and fight your black grandfather for 300 rounds! The Tubo people were shocked by his insults, and some of them couldn't hold back.
Zhandui asked Songhe to fight: "General, I'm going to slaughter that barbarian!" ”
Duo Sang hurriedly said: "No, no! Then he pointed to the Yan Yun warrior who was screaming and scolding in the middle of the mountain, and said: "This person has a strong physique, a fierce temperament, a dark complexion, and a steel beard, it should be Yang Jing, the famous general of Yan Yun!" Rushing to battle, I'm afraid that I won't be pleased, so it's better to guard the city! ”
Zhandui suffered heavy losses due to the failure of the previous raid on Yan Yunjun, not to mention that he was also seriously injured, he only felt that he couldn't raise his head in front of his colleagues, and was eager to find an opportunity to regain his prestige, and only felt that Yang Jing came to challenge Liwei's great opportunity, so he scoffed at Duo Sang's words, and said angrily: "You are afraid of Yan Yun's fierce generals, but I am not afraid!" In my eyes, Yan Yunxian is just a chicken, duck, deer and sheep, and I kill them like killing a deer and sheep! Song He was very happy to hear him say this, and pointed to Yang Jing, who was challenging on the hillside, and said, "If you can kill this enemy general, this general will be rewarded!" Zhan dui bowed and said: "General, please wait, the last general will come when he goes!" Then he took his broadsword and ran down the wall.
Immediately, the city gate was opened, and in the shouts of the Tibetan soldiers, Zhandui rushed down with a big sword. Came to the platform in the middle of the hillside, reined in the horse, pointed at Yang Jing with a big knife and shouted: "I am the general of Tubo......" Before he finished speaking, Yang Jing, who had been waiting impatiently, rushed up with a pair of plate axes and screamed, menacing. Zhan Dui was determined to kill Liwei, but he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the other party coming so fiercely.
Yang Jing rode his horse in front of Zhandui, shouted, raised the axe in his right hand, reflected the brilliant light in the sun, and then slashed down at the head of Zhandui, like a landslide, mighty! Zhandui changed color in shock, and hurriedly raised the big knife to block, only to hear a loud bang, and the mountains echoed!
Yang Jing saw that the other party had blocked his own heavy blow, and a pair of eyes showed excitement, in his mind, if he was hacked to death at once, it would be too boring, and it would be interesting to have to fight a dozen or twenty rendezvous before slaughtering him. The plate axe in Yang Jing's left hand swept towards the other party from the bottom up, and Zhandui saw a cold light flashing in the lower right, and his heart was cold, so he hurriedly dodged sideways, and the plate axe flew up against his body, and the strong wind blew across his face, which really scared Zhandui.
Zhan Dui was annoyed and ashamed, shouted, and swept towards Yang Jing with both hands with a knife, what he didn't expect was that the other party didn't dodge or dodge, a pair of plate axes slashed at each other with a left and a right, and it turned out to be a fighting style that ended up together! Zhandui was startled, and immediately didn't care about attacking the enemy, and forcibly withdrew the big knife to block a pair of plate axes that were chopped down, and there was a loud bang, and Zhandui only felt that Mount Tai was overwhelmed, and the whole person and the war horse under him slammed down, and the war horse let out a mournful roar!
Yang Jing showed a cruel smile on his face, raised the plate axe and slashed straight up and down, Yang Jing's tricks were clumsy, but he couldn't spread it at all, he could only raise the big knife to block the other party's falling slams, only to see Yang Jing's pair of plate axes constantly smashing on the big knife of the pile, making a loud clang, that scene was like striking iron! Zhandui only felt that his arms were numb, his whole body trembled, and he was terrified in his heart, although he couldn't fight back, he didn't even seem to be able to get out. Yang Jing kept smashing more than ten or twenty times, and Zhandui was shocked to the point that his head was dizzy, his heart was beating wildly, his stomach was refluxing, and he wanted to vomit.
Yang Jing suddenly shouted, and the plate axe in his right hand swept over. Zhandui subconsciously thought that the other party was still slashing straight down from top to bottom, and hurriedly raised the big knife, and suddenly realized that the other party's plate axe was not slashed straight down but swept sideways, and in a big startle, he hurriedly leaned back.
Syllable! The plate axe slammed into his broadsword, and Zhandui only felt an irresistible force sweeping over, and he immediately couldn't hold the broadsword, and the broadsword flew out of his hand. Zhandui was frightened in his heart, hurriedly crouched on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and ran away towards the mountain. Yang Jing didn't chase either, he stood in place with two plate axes, and laughed: "You idiot who shoots a donkey and a cow, don't you want to take your black grandfather's black head, why did you run away?" When Zhandui heard Yang Jing's voice, he was so frightened that he stepped up his efforts to urge the war horse, and he was really panicked like a lost dog!
Zhandui fled back to the fortress, and when he saw Song He and the others, he only felt faceless, lowered his head, and said ashamedly: "I, I ......" Someone whispered and mocked: "I don't know who said that Yan Yun's fierce generals are all deer and sheep just now, and it is easy to kill them!" When Zhandui heard this, he was even more ashamed and embarrassed. Song He didn't know what to say, and he blamed Zhandui for his recklessness in his heart, but he was even more shocked by the strength of his opponent, and couldn't help muttering: "This Yang Jing is really amazing!" ”
Duo Sang frowned and said: "I heard that this Yang Jing is the bravest of Yan Yun's fierce generals, and his martial arts are much higher than him, but there are only a handful of people who are as brave and crazy as him!" Zhandui couldn't help but think of the crazy energy of Yang Jing who completely ignored the defense and only attacked in the fight with Yang Jing just now, and couldn't help but feel palpitations, muttering: "He's just a madman, I've never seen such a guy!" ”
At this time, Yang Jing's shouting and scolding continued to come up, and the Tubo generals witnessed the battle between Zhandui and Yang Jing just now, and they couldn't get the slightest bit of anger, and they only felt that it was better for that kind of madman to ignore it. So, no matter how Yang Jing insulted, the Tubo army in the fortress was indifferent. In the end, Yang Jing scolded so much that his voice was hoarse, so he had to return to his own army in a huff.
When he came to Ye Yu Guanyin, he said in a buzzing voice: "Sister-in-law, the Tubo turtle just refuses to come out of the turtle shell, and my throat is hoarse!" Ye Yu Guanyin smiled slightly and praised: "Yang Jing is brave and extraordinary, set up a head attack, when the eldest brother comes back, I will definitely go to the eldest brother to ask for credit for you!" Yang Jing grinned and said, "Then I'll thank my sister-in-law first!" Then he said excitedly: "Sister-in-law, the gray grandson who shoots like a donkey and a cow just refuses to come out, why don't we go in!" Ya Yu Guanyin shook his head and said, "That's not good! If you really attack, I'm afraid you'll be exposed! Yang Jing blinked his eyes wide, looking not very understanding.
Yari Kannon looked at the sky and saw that it had darkened. After about half an hour, night fell completely, and although there was the light of the stars and moon in the sky, it was vague and indistinct from the wilderness a little farther away. Ya Yu Guanyin looked at the woods not far away, and said to Naren beside him: "The army that is ambushed in the woods can retreat." Naren answered, and immediately sent a flying phoenix female guard to the woods to give orders. Ya Yu Guanyin said to Yang Jing: "Let's go back to the camp!" Then he turned his horse and returned to the barracks, followed by all the soldiers of the army.
The Tubo soldiers on the fortress couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw the retreat of Yan Yunjun through the blurred light of the stars and moon. Duo Sang suddenly pointed to a forest at the bottom of the mountain and shouted, "Look! Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, only to see a Yanyun army open in the woods, and they couldn't see the specific situation clearly in the night, only feeling that the flags were surging and the figures were longing, as if there were countless people and horses. Song He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back, fortunately he didn't rush down the mountain to attack the Yanyun army, otherwise he was afraid that he would be attacked by this Yanyun army, and the consequences would be really unimaginable! As soon as he thought of this, he only felt that Princess Yanyun was really cunning and abnormal, and he couldn't be careless, so he ordered the whole army to strictly guard the fortress, and no one had to fight, and those who violated the military law would be dealt with! ……
Ye Yu Guanyin, Yang Jing, and Yang Qi returned to the big tent, and Yang Qi said angrily: "These Tubo people are really brave, Sister Guanyin only put 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they didn't dare to come down the mountain!" "During the day today, Ye Yu Guanyin, Yang Jing and others led 10,000 soldiers and horses to line up at the foot of the mountain to challenge the Tubo army, while Yang Qi led another 10,000 soldiers and horses to ambush in the woods.
Ya Yu Guanyin sat down on the top and said with a smile: "If you don't come, you won't come, although you haven't been able to inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but it has also made the enemy suspicious, so they don't dare to rashly go down the mountain to attack." We only have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and if the Tubo people come to attack, it will be very bad! ”
Yang Qi rolled his eyes and asked, "The reason why my sister took the initiative to attack must have used a suspicious strategy, right?" In this way, the Tibetans will think that we have enough troops and are confident, so they will not dare to take the initiative to attack! Ye Yu Guanyin smiled: "The eighth sister is worthy of being a tiger girl, and you can see the little tricks of the little sister!" Yang Qi was very happy when she heard Ye Yu Guanyin's praise.
Ye Yu Guanyin frowned and said, "We must delay until the eldest brother completely annihilates the Western Xia army and comes back, and at that time we will not be afraid of any situation!" I couldn't help but think of Yang Peng, and my beautiful and resolute face couldn't help but reveal a gentle expression. came back to his senses and said to Yang Qi: "Eighth sister, there are scouts to monitor every move of the Tubo people on the mountain. Yang Qi answered and ran down.
At about the same time, the main force led by Yang Peng was storming Guazhou City. The brilliance of the rocket illuminated the night sky, and the Yanyun warriors continued to rush to the city head along the cloud ladder, and the city car hit the city gate, making a huge noise, and the sound of fighting was everywhere on the city, and the soldiers on both sides were fighting bloody battles on the city.
The soldiers on both sides fought fiercely on the top of the city, the swords flashed and the flesh and blood flew, and one by one the soldiers and officers fell to the city wall, and the corpses under the city wall were already piled up. Roars were mixed with screams, the clatter of swords and the slashing of flesh. The Tubo general Yeli Yuqi stood next to the wall ladder, constantly moving the reserve team to the head of the city, trying to drive the Yanyun soldiers who rushed to the head of the city, but the range controlled by the Western Xia soldiers was constantly being compressed by the opponent.
Bang! Suddenly, a loud noise came from the city gate tower, it turned out that the huge stone launched by the Yanyun catapult smashed the city gate tower, and in an instant, the bricks, stones, and wooden blocks flew all over the sky, and the surrounding Western Xia soldiers were holding their heads and running around, and there was chaos. Ye Li Yu beggar was smashed with blood on his face by a flying brick, and he couldn't help screaming, and the soldiers next to him saw this and hurriedly escorted him down the city wall.
At the same time, the Western Xia army, which was struggling to resist at the head of the city, finally couldn't resist it, and fled from the city wall in batches, and in a blink of an eye, the entire city wall defense line collapsed, and it was really defeated! At this moment, there was a loud bang at the city gate, and the city car crashed open the city gate, and the fierce general Yang Dezheng immediately led thousands of war horses to rush in. At this time, hundreds or thousands of Western Xia troops still tried to block the city gate, but they were rushed by Yanyun's war cavalry. Yan Yun's war cavalry drove the rout into the city, and the entire city was completely chaotic. The remnants of the army were defeated, and the people of Western Xia rushed to the west gate and the north city gate, scrambling for the first place, trampling on each other and killing countless people. ……
Half an hour later, the Yanyun army completely occupied Guazhou City, with 20,000 defenders in Guazhou, four or five thousand killed, 10,000 captured, and the remaining few remnants of the army were defeated and escaped from the city. Those people who didn't have time to escape, seeing that the city gates were occupied by the Yan Yun army, had no choice but to return home, waiting for the new master's disposition in fear.
Yeli Yuqi, who was covered in blood and embarrassed, was escorted to Yang Peng by two personal soldiers, and Yeli Yuqi stood proudly and stared at Yang Peng. Wang Kai shouted: "Kneel! Ye Li Yu beggar said fearlessly: "I am the general of Great Xia, and I do not kneel to the lord of the foreign land!" The king was furious, and ordered his two men who were in charge of him to force him to kneel. Yang Peng raised his right hand and smiled: "Don't be embarrassed for him!" He walked up to Yeli Yuqi, looked at him, and asked, "Now that you are my prisoner, what should I do with you?" Ye Li Yu begged and said loudly: "The country is ruined, as a general, I can't protect my family and defend the country, I can only apologize with death!" ”
Yang Peng said: "You have another choice, surrender to me, not only will I not kill you, but I will also retain your official position." "Humph! Yeli Yu beggar is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and he will never steal his life! If you don't kill me, I'll kill you one day to get revenge!" Yeli Yu beggars do what they say! I saw that his eyes were round and excited, and it was obvious that what he said was forgotten.
Seeing this, Yang Yanzhao, Yang Gui and the others all showed admiration, and Yang Yanzhao couldn't help but say: "What a loyal and brave man!" ”
Yang Peng looked at Yeli Yuqi's eyes, and in his eyes he only saw sadness and anger, but there was no trace of fear. Yang Peng nodded and said, "You are a hero, if I persuade you to surrender again, it will be an insult to you!" Since you are determined to repay Xixia with death, I will become all you! Come on! ”
Wang Kai came to Yang Peng and promised with a fist: "My subordinates are here!" Yang Peng looked at Yeli Yu begging and said: "Escort General Ye Li Yu to the head of Xicheng and behead the public!" Wang Kai promised, and led two soldiers to take Ye Liyu beggar down. Ye Li Yu begged suddenly turned around and shouted, "King Yan, you are really a big hero!" can die in your hands, I have enough Yeli to meet beggars in this life! ”
Yang Peng sighed. Yeli Yuqi was escorted down, and soon after, Wang Kai came back with the head of Yeli Yuqi to restore his life. Yang Peng instructed: "Bury him with the specifications of a general, and the tombstone should be written 'The Western Xia general Yeli was unyielding in a bloody battle and died in the city of Guazhou!'" ’。 Wang Kai answered, and went down with the head of Yeli begging.
Yang Peng turned around and said to Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui: "The battle is progressing much more smoothly than I expected, and the remaining remnants of Western Xia have no strength, so I have decided to leave 50,000 infantry troops to continue to attack westward with the Western Xia army that has come over from Toucheng, and the main force will return to support Xiliangfu." Yang Yanzhao nodded and said, "It should be so, Tubo is very reassuring, if they make a desperate attempt to attack Xiliang Mansion, the threat to us will be great!" Yang Gui said: "With the strength in the hands of the princess, it must not be a big problem to resist the attack of the Tubo people!" Yang Yanzhao shook his head, "Under normal circumstances, this is true, but Xiliang Mansion has just been incorporated into the territory by our Yanyun, and the people's hearts are unstable, maybe there are still remnants of forces loyal to Western Xia waiting for an opportunity to restore, if the Tubo people besiege Xiliang Mansion in a big way, the outcome is really unpredictable!" The army is fighting, and you can't take risks until you have to, I agree with King Yan's decision to come back! Yang Gui felt that what his father said made sense, and couldn't help but nodded.
Yang Peng said: "If Xiliang Mansion is lost, this situation will be a bit troublesome." We should not take this lightly. Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui hugged their fists and said: "Yan Wang is wise!" Yang Peng said to Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui: "You two will continue to sweep up the remnants of Western Xia for me, and I will lead the army back to Xiliang Mansion." The two of them clasped their fists and promised.
At this moment, a dusty herald rushed to Yang Peng, knelt down and said, "King Qiyan, the Qingtang Governor of Tubo, Zanpu, led 100,000 troops into the Snow Mountain Fortress. Yang Peng and the others frowned slightly, and Yang Gui said worriedly: "In this way, Tubo has an army of more than 200,000 in the north of the Snow Mountain, and the princess is only afraid of ......."
Snow Mountain Fortress. "General, our scouts have reported that our front, including Xiliang Mansion, has less than 30,000 enemy troops in total!" Ngawang reports to Song Heyu. Sonhy was very surprised and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? With less than 30,000 soldiers and horses, how dare they take the initiative to attack the Snow Mountain Fortress? The other generals were also incredulous. Ngawang said: "This information is true, it was transmitted by the Xixia people from the Xiliang Mansion. Yan Yun's main force had left Xiliang Mansion many days ago to hunt down the remnants of Western Xia. ”
Song He looked at Zampu, who frowned and said, "The Yanyun people are extremely cunning, I'm afraid that we have indeed fallen for them!" They know that they are assuming an offensive posture, and we will inevitably think that they are confident and have sufficient troops, and they will not dare to act rashly, so they deliberately assume an offensive posture. The purpose of that Yan Wang and Princess must be to drag us down with this, so that we don't dare to act rashly until Yan Yun's main force solves the remnants of Western Xia! And when their main force solves the remnants of Western Xia and completely annexes the west, they are not afraid of us attacking! ”
Songhe only felt that he had been fooled, and he couldn't help but be greatly annoyed, and scolded: "Damn! Then he shouted at the generals: "Pass the order, the whole army assembles, kill down the mountain, first destroy the current Yanyun army, and then break through Xiliang Mansion to cut off the retreat of the Yanyun army!" Hmph, I'll catch turtles in an urn and annihilate the army of King Yan! All the generals agreed in unison and rushed out of the tent.
At this moment, a messenger rushed in with a pro-soldier officer, who knelt down to Songhyuk and said, "General, Your Majesty's courier is here!" Songhe hurriedly left his seat, came to the tent, bowed and saluted: "Songhe welcomes the holy decree!" ”
The messenger said: "The general does not need to be polite. This official brought His Majesty's message, ordering the general Songhe to capture alive the princess of Yanwang Ya Yu Guanyin and send it to the holy capital, if it can be done, it will be a great achievement! ”
Song He replied, and said with some concern: "Although that Ya Yu Guanyin is a woman who is absolutely astringent, but as a military general, if you serve Your Majesty, you are only afraid, but I am afraid that it is not appropriate, right?" "Song He saw Ya Yu Guanyin, and at that time, he was shocked at the sight, and he only felt that such a beautiful woman was like the legendary holy mountain goddess, so he was not surprised that the emperor issued such a holy decree, but he was worried that Ye Yu Guanyin was strong in martial arts, and if he had a bad heart around His Majesty, I was afraid that no one would be able to save His Majesty.
The messenger said: "These generals don't have to worry, Your Majesty naturally has all the preparations, and the generals just need to do what Your Majesty has explained!" Songhyuk bowed and promised.
The messenger said: "Your Majesty's message has arrived, and you will leave!" As he spoke, he bowed slightly to Songhyuk. Songhe hurriedly bowed down and said, "I'll send it to my lord." Then the two men went out of the tent and said goodbye, and the messenger entered the carriage, which galloped out of the barracks, surrounded by his attendants.
Songhyuk thought about it and ordered someone to summon his cronies. He wants to give the Messenger's command, but he doesn't want anyone else to know about it. ……
After the 180,000 Tibetan army was assembled, then Hanon's 10,000 soldiers and horses were the vanguard, and the 180,000 army was slaughtered in a mighty way.
Hanon led 10,000 pioneers down from the mountain and immediately slaughtered into the nearby woods, which was to prevent Yan Yun's army from setting up an ambush in the woods. However, Hanon's 10,000 soldiers and horses did not find half of Yanyun's army in the woods. Hanon immediately sent someone to report to Songhe.
When Songhe received the report, he immediately relieved himself and waved his army directly to attack the Yanyun military camp. The Yanyun military camp was already empty, and the Tubo army occupied the military camp without much effort.
At this moment, Song He received a report from the scout, saying that he found that Yan Yun's army was more than ten miles away and was retreating to Xiliang Mansion. Song He said excitedly: "Yan Yunjun wants to escape back to Xiliang Mansion, and he can't let them succeed!" Then he ordered: "All soldiers and horses immediately pursue!" The generals agreed in unison. The 180,000 Tibetan army started again, with 20,000 cavalry led by Zhandui and Hanon in front, 160,000 infantry in the rear, and 180,000 troops meandering between the mountains like a giant dragon. The scouts kept sending back news, and Yan Yunjun was getting closer and closer.
Not long after, another scout came with news: "General Qiyu, the two generals of Zhandui Hanun have caught up with the Yanyun army in the Elk Valley in front!" Songhyuk was overjoyed and said loudly: "Good! Zhandui did a good job, and after annihilating this Yanyun army, he made the first contribution! Then he shouted, "Speed up!" Ying Nuo's voice came and went, and the Tubo army accelerated its march, and they were already running.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
