Chapter 495, Inspire Fierce Battles.
Yang Jiumei glanced at everyone and said categorically: "King Yan is a hero unparalleled in the world, there were many more critical things than this before, which one stumped King Yan?" Since King Yan is here, he is sure to hold Yanjing, and when our Yanyun reinforcements continue to come, the situation will definitely be reversed! Our army will win, and the Khitans will be defeated! All the staff members were originally worried, but after listening to Yang Jiumei's words, they couldn't help but regain a lot of confidence, and only felt that with King Yan here, no matter how big the difficulty was, they would definitely be able to get through it without danger.
Yang Jiumei saw the change in the demeanor of the subordinates, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "As a subordinate of King Yan, I don't have to worry about anything else, I just need to be loyal to my duties, carry out King Yan's orders, and do my part well." The staff bowed and agreed. Yang Jiumei said: "Let's go down." The crowd answered and withdrew. Yang Jiumei looked at everyone's backs, and couldn't help but sigh, and then frowned slightly, with a look of worry in her eyes. ……
Yang Peng and Ye Yu Guanyin received the report, hurried to the city wall, looked out of the city, only to see the flames on the Xiangshan Mountain in the distance, lighting up half of the night sky, at the same time, there was also a faint sound of swords fighting and shouting and screaming. Yang Peng frowned and scolded: "Holy shit! "Xiangshan in the west of Yanjing is the location of Yanyun's Loyal Soul Palace, and it is the place where Yanyun worships and commemorates the loyal souls of the fallen soldiers. Looking at the current scene, the Loyal Soul Hall must have been looted by the Khitan soldiers.
"King Yan, look!" Ma Jin suddenly pointed to the southeast and shouted.
Everyone's eyes immediately followed the direction of his finger, and they saw that there was also a scene of firelight and candlelight in the southeast. Ma Jin said: "That should be Qingquan Town, the Khitans also ransacked it!" "Qingquan Town, a town more than 20 miles southeast of the eye, because there is a huge spring in the middle of the town, so it is named Qingquan Town, which was originally a beautiful and very comfortable place, and now I don't know what kind of scene it has become!
Soon after, a series of frightened refugees fled under the city walls, begging the defenders of the city to open the door and drag their families with them, many wounded, and frightened children crying and wailing.
The guards of the city gates came to ask Yang Peng for instructions, whether to open the city gates? At this moment, in the darkness not far behind those refugees, there were figures longing, and from time to time the sound of neighing horses was heard, and it was obvious that the Jin army cavalry was ambushing behind the refugees.
Ya Yan Guanyin said: "The enemy war horses are hiding behind the refugees, just waiting for us to open the city gate, and they will rush into the city gate and seize the city in one go!" They ransacked the town outside the city tonight, but they were afraid that the purpose was not to loot, but to Yanjing! As soon as he finished speaking, there was a whooshing sound outside the city, followed by the screams of the people outside the city, and many people were shot by arrows and fell to the ground. The people on the city wall were furious when they saw this, and the people outside the city were even more frightened, and as they pushed each other, many fell into the moat, struggling and screaming, and the scene was chaotic.
Ma Jin said excitedly: "King Yan, we can't watch the people being killed by Khitan dogs!" King Yan, please let me go out of the city to rescue! ”
Yang Peng said: "You have to save these people, unless you mess up the enemy army first!" I led a hundred guards to rush out of the west gate, Ma Jin, Guanyin, you led a hundred guards to rush out of the east gate and the south gate respectively! Remember, as soon as you exit the gates, you will charge your enemies with all your might, leaving them with no time to care! Ma Jin excitedly clenched his fists and promised, and Yari Guanyin also responded. Yang Jiumei said urgently: "King Yan can't be rash! This is the enemy's conspiracy, if you attack, the risk is too great, if you let the enemy rush into the city gate, the consequences are unimaginable! King Yan is at stake for the safety of the entire Yan Yun, and he must not take risks lightly! ”
Yang Peng patted Yang Jiumei's shoulder and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense, but as the King of Yan, I can't watch the people of Yanyun being killed by the enemy and be indifferent!" Seeing that Yang Jiumei still wanted to say more, she said: "I have already decided, Ninth Sister, don't say it again!" Yang Jiumei showed helplessness. Yang Peng said: "After the three of us attack, you have to prepare the crossbowmen to respond, and also prepare three armies to be placed near the three city gates to deal with the worst possible scenario!" Yang Jiumei nodded.
Yang Peng and the three of them ran down the city wall, and Ye Yu Guanyin and Ma Jin ran towards the east gate and the south gate respectively. Yang Peng turned over and got on his horse, followed by a hundred secret guards, riding war horses, holding spears, and everyone looked fierce.
Yang Peng nodded to the captain of the city gate, and when the latter saw this, he quickly led his soldiers to raise the door bar and open the city gate, and at the same time, there was a loud bang outside the city, and the drawbridge was put down. Yang Peng immediately led a hundred secret guards to gallop out, and shouted at the same time: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! ......The people outside the city saw that the drawbridge was lowered, and they were about to run into the city gate, but suddenly they saw a large group of cavalry rushing towards them, and they were startled, and they heard the shouts of the other party, and immediately subconsciously gave way to both sides.
Yang Peng led a hundred horsemen to gallop through the people, and at the same time, the Khitan army horses that were originally hidden behind the people surged, and under the moonlight, I saw a crowd of people, I was afraid that there were thousands of them!
Yang Peng led a hundred horsemen to stab into the middle of the enemy like sharp arrows, Yang Peng took the lead, and the iron horse lance in his hand danced a piece of cold light, and the screams sounded around him one after another, and no one was his general; At the same time, the hundred secret guards who followed Yang Peng also moved forward bravely, without looking back, rushing and killing, fearless, and killing the enemy's flesh and blood flying on their backs, and the momentum of the secret guards who fell off the horse did not diminish at all, and they still roared wildly, wielding spears and horizontal knives, slashing the enemy in a row, like a mad tiger, and finally died in a bloody battle!
The enemy's 10,000 cavalry originally wanted to take advantage of the opening of the city gate to break into the city gate in one go, but just now he didn't pay much attention to the other party's 100,000 cavalry out of the city, and only thought that his 10,000 cavalry rushed forward, and it was better to sweep them away like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves? However, as soon as the battle began, it was found that it was not the case at all, although the other party only had a hundred horsemen, it was brave and unstoppable, not to mention sweeping them in one go, and even the assault on the city gate could not be taken care of for a while, and nearly 10,000 Khitan army cavalry concentrated on dealing with the hundred cavalry enemy army in front of them.
Yan Yunbai rode fearlessly among the thousands of enemy troops, the more he fought, the more courageous he became, and the last time he fought was like entering a no-man's land! Seeing that Yan Yunjun's momentum was amazing and unstoppable, the Khitan army couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts. Seeing that his 10,000 war horses could not fight more than 100 of the other party's horses, Toto, the fierce general of the Khitan army, was shocked and angry, and kept shouting, and the Khitan army war horses continued to rush towards the Yanyun war cavalry in all directions under his orders, and the regiments were encircled, and a huge whirlpool was formed with the Yanyun war horse as the center!
Yang Peng was paying attention to the movements of the Khitan army while fighting, and saw that the Khitan army's war cavalry was constantly surrounded in all directions, all of them seemed to be crazy and desperate, and felt that if they didn't rush out as soon as possible, they would not be able to get out if they were surrounded by the enemy! At this moment, several groups of Khitan army war horsemen rushed up, and spears and scimitars came towards Yang Peng. Yang Peng came first, and the horse lance in his hand swept away quickly, cutting open the chests of several Khitan army war horses, and the Khitan army war horses screamed and fell off their horses. The surrounding Khitan army cavalry saw that Yang Peng was unstoppable, and they didn't dare to step forward for a while.
Yang Peng immediately put the horse lance horizontally on the saddle in front of him, took out the cloud-piercing bow, drew out the carved arrow, and aimed the arrow and the bow at the Khitan army commander Toto who was commanding the attack in the crowd. As soon as his fingers were loosened, he heard only a bang, and almost at the same time, the Khitan army commander Toto screamed miserably, and fell off his horse with his feet in the sky.
The main general was suddenly killed, and the Khitan army couldn't help but panic. Yang Peng took this opportunity to lead the remaining dozen or so secret guards to break out of the siege and rush into the city gate covered in blood. The gates were shut, and the drawbridge was drawn. The Khitan army chased to the moat, and when the arrows rained down on the city wall, the Khitan soldiers climbed on their horses and suffered heavy casualties, and retreated in a hurry.
Yang Peng didn't care about getting off the horse, and hurriedly asked Yang Jiumei, who came to greet him: "Guanyin Ma Jin's side, how is the situation?" ”
At this moment, a scout Pegasus reported: "Qiyu Yan King, General Ma Jin has successfully withdrawn," "Where is Guanyin?" "The princess is under siege outside the southern city gate!"
Yang Peng's heart tightened, and he immediately rode his horse towards the south city gate, more than a dozen bloodied guards followed, and the people who were saved by them knelt down and thanked for saving their lives, Yang Jiumei shouted urgently in the back: "King Yan!" King Yan! Seeing that Yang Peng didn't agree, he couldn't help but feel annoyed, thought about it, and ordered Ma Jin to bring the troops originally gathered at the east and west gates to the east city gate, and advised: "If King Yan is in danger, immediately lead all the soldiers and horses out of the city to rescue!" The life and death of all of us are not important, and the gains and losses of this Yanjing are not important, the most important thing is the safety of King Yan! ”
More than a dozen horsemen rushed out of the south city gate, only to see the sound of killing in the field in the distance, countless Khitan army cavalry were surrounding Ye Yu Guanyin to kill, and the enemy generals who led the team were the two blonde and blue-eyed ghosts that Yang Peng had seen, West and Butler.
Yang Peng led more than a dozen brave cavalry to penetrate through the enemy, and the enemy soldiers could not stop it, and they died under the blades of these dozen outlaws, and the army was a little commotion for a while.
When West saw Yang Peng leading people to kill, he was not surprised and rejoiced, and pointed at Yang Peng and shouted at Butler: "It's King Yan!" Butler had already seen it, nodded excitedly, and said loudly: "I'm going to kill him!" As he spoke, he urged the war horse and rushed towards Yang Peng with a cross sword. In the blink of an eye, the two sides met in the midst of thousands of troops, Butler shouted, waved his big sword and slashed at Yang Peng, at this time Yang Peng had just picked off a Khitan army officer, and he saw Butler's fierce killing.
Ordinary people would definitely be shocked if they suddenly saw such a scene, but Yang Peng's eyes burst with excitement, seeing that the opponent's cross sword was about to hit his head, he quickly raised the iron lance at the last moment. In an instant, the cross-sword slammed into the iron rod of the iron lance, and there was a loud clatter, which could be heard clearly even on the noisy and fierce battlefield.
Yang Peng blocked the opponent's thunderous blow, and then withdrew the horse lance with both hands, quickly turned the horse lance, and followed from the bottom up to Butler! Butler wanted to attack again, but he saw the opponent's horse lance whistling up from below, and in a panic, he hurriedly dodged and narrowly avoided it. Chen Xiao continued to attack, one lance after another, or sweeping, or picking, or straight splitting, or straight stabbing, as fast as lightning, like a mountain, so that Butler could only parry and had no power to fight back. Butler blocked more than a dozen moves, and when he saw that the opponent's attack was getting more and more aggressive, he couldn't help but be shocked and afraid.
After a few more moves, Butler's moves were scattered, Yang Peng went straight into the opponent's chest with a horse lance, Butler hurriedly returned to the sword to block, but in a hurry, his strength was limited, and he failed to block Yang Peng's powerful blow, only to hear a soft sound, and the horse lance pierced the armor on Butler's chest. Butler was so frightened that he hurriedly leaned back, that is, he finally escaped the fate of being pierced by the horse.
Yang Peng frowned when he saw that he couldn't kill Butler in one fell swoop, and he wanted to continue to perform his killing moves. But at this moment, West had already rushed up with his cross-sword. Yang Peng glanced at him, and saw him raise his sword with both hands and slash diagonally, and immediately the whole person leaned back and lay down, and almost at the same time, the sword blade roared past in front of him. Yang Peng sat up quickly, and without turning around, he returned his hand, only to hear a sonorous sound, which seemed to hit the opponent's body, but did not completely penetrate the opponent's armor.
At this time, Butler had already recovered from his fear, seeing blood spilling from his chest, he was shocked and angry, and a fury surged into his heart and rushed straight to his head, and he immediately urged his war horse and brandished his big sword towards Yang Peng. Yang Peng originally planned to pursue West, but at this time he had to divert his energy to deal with Butler. The two sides fought two moves, and Navest joined the battle group again, and Butler sandwiched Yang Peng, Yang Peng fought the other two fierce generals with a horse lance, and the scene was thrilling! The surrounding Khitan army subconsciously retreated into the distance, freeing up an open space within a radius of more than 20 zhang for the three of them to fight.
Yang Peng and the two generals fought for more than 30 rounds without winning or losing, and couldn't help but feel anxious, while fighting with the opponent, while looking towards Ye Yu Guanyin, only to see that Ye Yu Guanyin was trapped in the opponent's thousands of troops, already exhausted, and it was impossible to fight out of the encirclement with his own strength. At this moment, Ya Yu Guanyin's mount suddenly fell, and the surrounding Khitan army rushed up. Yang Peng was anxious, it was inevitable to be distracted, West slashed with a sword, Yang Peng failed to intercept it, seeing that the opponent's sword light was about to reach the body, and Yang Peng was also incomparably rich in actual combat experience. Then he turned his horse's head and ran towards Ya Yu Guanyin.
West and Butler were excited when they saw Yang Peng's defeat and hurriedly urged their horses to catch up. Yang Peng ran out of five or six zhang, suddenly turned the horse's head, put down the iron horse lance horizontally, took out the cloud-piercing bow, pulled out two carved arrows, and took the arrow and bent the bow to aim at West and Butler, who had caught up. Seeing this, Wester Butler's heart sank, and he subconsciously reined in the war horses, and the two war horses stood up.
At this moment, Yang Peng's fingers were released, only to hear a loud bang, and everyone only saw two black shadows disappearing. West and Butler were so frightened that they couldn't care about their image, so they hurriedly rolled under their horses, only to hear a pop, it turned out that two sharp arrows pierced the abdomen of the two horses at the same time, and then shot West in the shoulder and Butler in the right chest, and the two snorted.
The surrounding Khitan soldiers were all shocked when they saw this scene, and immediately reacted and hurriedly rushed up to the rescue.
Yang Peng saw that West and Butler couldn't die, so he wanted to step forward and end up with the two of them. However, at this time, the Khitan soldiers were already surging up in all directions, and Yang Peng saw that there was no chance, so he turned his horse's head and killed Ye Yu Guanyin. At this time, most of the Khitan soldiers saw their two generals fall from their horses, they didn't know whether they were alive or dead, the army's heart was shaken, and they were all at a loss, so Yang Peng was like no one in the midst of thousands of troops and horses, and he passed through the Khitan army and soldiers in one go, and joined up with Yehu Guanyin. At this time, Ya Yu Guanyin was fighting on foot, the situation was very difficult, and his body was already scarred, and Yang Peng couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he saw this scene.
When Ye Yu Guanyin saw her eldest brother coming, she was pleasantly surprised, but then she became worried, she was not worried about herself, but worried about Yang Peng's safety.
Yang Peng was furious when he saw that his woman was forced into such a situation, brandished an iron horse lance, and killed the Khitan soldiers who besieged Yeyu Guanyin in one fell swoop, and then rushed to Ye Yu Guanyin, pulled Ye Yao Guanyin onto the war horse, took her out of the siege, and galloped towards Yanjing City. Thousands of Khitan war horses howled and chased after them. At this time, there were still some sporadic battles behind him, and the few remaining secret guards were fighting for the last time in the encirclement of the enemy, and they fell in a pool of blood one by one!
Yang Peng took Ye Yu Guanyin towards the city gate, thousands of Khitan army cavalry chased after him, although the black dragon horse is a rare horse in the world, but it has been fighting for a long time, and now with two people, it is impossible to distance itself from the pursuers. Now the situation is still very critical, Yang Peng and Ye Yu Guanyin should be able to run into the city gate, but the enemy army is not far from the two of them, I am afraid that when the two of them run into the city gate, the enemy army will also take the opportunity to pour into the city gate, and the consequences are unimaginable! Yang Peng couldn't help but wonder, did he turn the horse's head and enter the city from another direction? At this moment, Ya Yu Guanyin said in the back: "You don't have to worry about me! ......" Yang Peng said angrily: "Shut up!" Ya Yu Guanyin couldn't help but get angry, and then a feeling of infinite happiness came to her heart.
Yang Peng took Ye Yu Guanyin to run to a place only two or three miles away from the city gate, and saw that the pursuers had always kept a distance of about twenty paces from his side, and frowned, so he was ready to turn his horse and run towards other city gates, but if the enemy cavalry had been chasing after him, it would be useless to flee to other city gates.
At this moment, the city gate in front suddenly opened, Ma Jin led thousands of soldiers and horses to run out, and quickly arranged with his back against the city wall and replaced it with a military formation, with shield bearers and spearmen in front, and crossbowmen in the back, leaving a passage in the middle of the military formation, Ma Jin immediately raised his voice in front of the formation and shouted: "King Yan, Niangniang, come quickly!" ”
Yang Peng immediately dismissed his plan to go to other city gates, and took Ye Yu Guanyin to gallop in from the passage reserved in the middle of the military formation. At the same time, the crossbowmen of the Yanyun Army fired arrows, and in the rain of arrows, the Khitan army rode horses and neighed, people turned over on their backs, and the galloping speed dropped significantly, which seemed a little chaotic. Immediately, the Khitan army cavalry returned fire with cavalry and archery skills, and the rain of arrows fell into the middle of Yanyun's army, and many people were shot down when they landed.
In the blink of an eye, the Khitan army's war cavalry crashed heavily into the defense line of the Yanyun army, only to see that the defense line of the Yanyun army quickly became staggered, and many shield men and pikemen were knocked out by the huge force of the cavalry charge; The Khitan army war cavalry turned on their backs, but the war horses behind kept rushing up to impact the Yanyun army's defense line, and the Yanyun army's defense line finally couldn't resist and was torn to pieces by the Khitan army's war horse. Thousands of city defenders were terrified, and some began to retreat. The Khitan army cavalry poured into the Yanyun army's formation, and the columns swept through!
Yang Peng rushed into the city gate with Ye Yu Guanyin, the city gate was closed immediately, the drawbridge was pulled up, and at the same time, arrows rained down on the city wall, and the Khitan army cavalry in front of him turned over on their backs. The momentum of the Khitan army's war cavalry attack was greatly weakened, but such an attack was obviously unable to repel the Khitan army.
Yang Peng reined in the black dragon, turned over and dismounted, and then reached out and hugged Ye Yu Guanyin, as soon as Ye Yu Guanyin's feet landed, he felt his whole body was weak and fell into Yang Peng's arms. Yang Peng saw that Ye Yu Guanyin was not lightly injured, anxious and heartbroken, at this time, several female medical officers who had been waiting at the city gate rushed up, Yang Peng said to them: "Take Niangniang down immediately to heal!" The female medical officers answered, helped Ya Yu Guanyin into the carriage, and then escorted the carriage towards the palace.
Yang Peng looked at the back of the carriage and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, recalling the scene just now, he still had palpitations. At this time, the fierce fighting and screams outside kept coming, Yang Peng frowned, ignored Yang Jiumei and the others who were running, turned over and got on the horse, ordered to open the city gate and put down the drawbridge, and rode out of the city gate. When Yang Jiumei saw that Yang Peng was out of the city again, she was angry and anxious, so she hurriedly ran to the city and looked out of the city.
I saw that thousands of soldiers and horses on our side had been rushed to pieces by the enemy, but Yang Peng and Ma Jin rushed forward to kill, killing one step at a time, killing the Khitan soldiers on their backs and turning over their corpses and accumulating blood, and the attention of the Khitan army was gradually attracted by the two of them. Yang Jiumei admired and annoyed again, and muttered: "It's really messy!" ”
Seeing that King Yan and the general were fearlessly charging and fighting, the original frightened emotions disappeared without a trace, and were replaced by a raging fighting spirit. The soldiers who were originally fleeing for their lives turned around and fought back, following Yang Peng and Ma Jin, frantically counterattacking, cutting off the horse's legs, teasing the enemy on the battlefield, and the flesh and blood flew on the battlefield!
The Khitan army didn't expect that the collapsed Yan Yun Army would actually make a comeback, and the momentum was amazing, and their own side had been killed by Yang Peng and Ma Jin in horror, so they were attacked by Yan Yun Army with a round of crazy counterattacks, and they were actually in chaos and retreated. The Yanyun army finally repelled the Khitan army! Seeing this scene, Yang Peng immediately ordered the attack to be stopped, and led the soldiers to quickly retreat into the city. The Khitan army was only temporarily disrupted, after all, they had an absolute advantage in strength, if they stabilized their position and counterattacked, it would be very difficult for their side to win the victory, even if they retreated.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
