Chapter 22 Yanmen Pass is lost, and the northern border is in crisis
Gao Dashang and Ji Tian were relieved in their hearts when they saw Xiao Lin fall to the ground and die, and finally died.
Then Gao Dashang sent a soldier to count the arrows in Xiao Lin's body, and the soldier counted the arrows in Xiao Lin's body and said: "Commander Xiao Lin was hit by a total of ninety-nine arrows, and his whole body was covered in blood. ”
Ji Tian asked curiously: "Senior brother, you hate Xiao Lin so much, and you don't cut off his head to show the world." ”
Gao Dashang shook his head and said: "We have been fighting for so many years, and we can be regarded as heroes, although this prince often thinks of cutting him with a thousand knives and ten thousand arrows through his heart." ”
But although he is an enemy, he still admires him.
Then Gao Dashang sent someone to carry Xiao Lin away, and explained that he should be buried in the east of Wanli Ping outside Yanmen Pass.
Ji Tian looked at Gao Dashang and said, "Brother Gao, we have more than 400,000 soldiers in this battle, and now we don't have many soldiers, what should we do next?" ”
Gao Dashang asked rhetorically: "I don't know what you think, Brother Ji." ”
Ji Tian said with a smile: "Let's attack Yanmen Pass first and then make plans." ”
Then the two of them took the rest of the army and killed Ruyanmen Pass.
And after Ye Jiu cultivated with divine spring water in the stone cave behind the stone gate for three days, the emperor finally lived up to his wishes, and Yan Jiu finally broke through the ninth layer of the refining body.
Ye Jiu slowly opened his eyes, and said very happily that I didn't expect me to break through so quickly, now I should be able to propose to Mu Guiding to go to the battlefield with him, and I have been out for several days, so I should also go back.
Ye Jiu got up and walked outside the stone cave, and soon Ye Jiu walked out of Wanliping outside Shilonggou.
As soon as Ye Jiu arrived outside Wanliping, he saw the blood in the sky.
Ye Jiu secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that Wanliping has just gone through a big battle, and Ye Jiu walked towards Wanliping as he spoke." ”
After a while, when Ye Jiu came to Wanliping, he saw the corpses of soldiers piled up in Wanliping.
Judging by the military uniforms worn by these soldiers, they should be from Daqi and Daliang, and it seems that there has been a big battle in Wanliping in the past few days of my cultivation.
Ye Jiu walked as he spoke, wanting to see if there were any people alive, and there were no living people after leaving
Then Ye Jiu said to himself: "It looks like they are all dead, I should go back too." ”
But just as Ye Jiu turned around, Ye Jiu felt as if something touched his foot, Ye Jiu bent down and saw that someone's hand was still moving.
Ye Jiu saw that this person's hair was gray, and he didn't look like a soldier, how could he be on the battlefield in this Wanliping, Ye Jiu quickly checked the injuries on the old man's body, and then took out the divine spring water brought out from the stone cave in the Shilonggou mountain and gave the white-haired old man some drink.
Ye Jiu then said in surprise: "What the old man Xingtianyu said is really not wrong, I only gave this divine spring water to the white-bearded old man to drink a little bit, and the injuries on his body can be seen by the human eye and slowly heal." ”
About half an hour later, Ye Jiu saw the white-bearded old man's eyelids blink, and then he opened his eyes and woke up.
When the old man woke up, he sighed, and then he hugged his head and cried: "Xiao Shuai is gone!" Xiao Shuai, and our army of 250,000. ”
The white-bearded old man is Xiao Dongfang, the military advisor of Xiao Lin who participated in the war before.
"And at this time, Xiao Dongfang has the appearance of a military advisor, holding his head and crying like a child, crying while reading Xiao Shuai, the army is gone..."
After hearing this, Ye Jiu's heart set off a thousand waves, the dignified lord of the northern realm, Xiao Dashuai, the invincible and invincible Xiao Lin Xiao, was really killed on the battlefield like this.
Xiao Dongfang cried for a while, and Ye Jiu took him back to the north from Yanmen Pass.
When the two of them had just left, Gao Dashang and Ji Tian surrounded the city gate outside Yanmen Pass with the remaining army from the Battle of Wanliping.
The tall man rode a big horse to the bottom of the city tower and shouted: "Listen to me, all the people of the city, your commander has been shot by us with ninety-nine arrows, and he has fallen to the ground and died. ”
The soldiers on the city tower were all stunned when they heard the words of the tall, but one of them also took the lead and said: "Don't do it, let's guard the city gate first, even if they have more than a large army, they will not be able to attack for a while, then we will quickly go to the north to report the news, so that the north can send people to us to guard the city gate." ”
After Gao Dashang shouted for a long time, the city guard general on the city tower looked at Gao Dashang and said: "The tall and tall of the Great Qi Kingdom, what kind of thing are you, and you are also worthy of Lao Tzu to open the city and surrender to you, rolling..."
After hearing this, Gao Dashang said angrily: "I'm so fucking angry, a little city defender dares to talk to me like this." Listen to the young general, see how Ben Shuai will attack the city and deal with you, when the time comes, Ben Shuai will be the first to kill you, not only to kill you first, but also to cut off the flesh on your body piece by piece with a knife and roast it for the soldiers to drink and eat, and take out your heart to feed the dogs, so that you will not be at peace when you die. ”
After listening to the words of the lord, the lord of the city tower suddenly felt numb all over his body, and when he thought that the commander of his own house had been killed by ninety-nine arrows, he retreated, so he said to the others: "You will watch from the tower first, and I will go down below to discuss with them what to do against the enemy." ”
The city defender will be named Yuan Xiaoxiang, who was going to participate in the battle of Wanliping before, but this person was timid and particularly afraid of death, so he pretended to be sick, saying that he had eaten a bad stomach and pulled his stomach for three days, and his whole body was lying on the bed weakly.
Later, Yuan Xiaoxiang heard that all the 250,000 troops led by Xiao Lin were killed in battle, and he was extremely glad of the choice he made.
So now after Yuan Xiaoxiang heard Gao Dashang's words, he retreated in his heart, wanting to roll away and return to the north.
After Yuan Xiaoxiang walked below, he said to his subordinates: "I want to go to the Northern Border City in person, and then you must guard the city gate well, Yanmen Pass is the last checkpoint of my beam, and it is also one of the most important places, and there is no room for loss." ”
Then Yuan Xiaoxiang rode a fast horse and left, although it was walking, it was no different from running away.
Not long after Yuan Xiaoxiang left, Gao Dashang was still shouting outside the city gate.
Ji Tian saw that it was useless for Gao Dashang to shout for a long time, so he stepped forward and said to Gao Dashang: "Senior brother is useless to shout in my eyes, we still have to use force to attack." ”
Gao Dashang smiled when he heard this: "Brother Ji is reasonable, it seems that everything can't just rely on words, you have to do it." ”
After Gao Dashang finished speaking, he looked at the soldiers and said, "Everyone is ready, let's attack it together, and let the soldiers attack the city with siege equipment." ”
Soon someone climbed up to the wall of Yanmen Pass, although there were soldiers on the city tower to defend, but still could not stand the crowd, soon there were soldiers to pick up, and then the two sides fought together.
After twenty minutes, the tower of Yanmen Pass was opened by tall people.
Soon Gao Dashang and Ji Tian went in with a big army, and the sound of killing was everywhere.
And when Gao Dashang and Ji Tian attacked Yanmen Pass, in the Northern City Commander's Mansion, not long after Xiao Dongfang and Ye Jiu returned, a soldier came in and said: "Xiao Army's Yanmen Pass is in an emergency, Gao Dashang and Ji Tian's army has been killed outside the Yanmen Pass, and Yuan Xiaoxiang, the main general of Yanmen Pass, asked to send troops to support. ”
When Xiao Dongfang heard this, he said, "You should retreat first!" ”
After hearing this, the soldier turned his head and was about to leave, but at this time, his subordinates came in and said, "Report, Yuan Xiaoxiang of Yanmen Pass is here." ”
Xiao Dongfang raised his eyebrows and said, "Let him come in!" ”
After Yuan Xiaoxiang came in, he said: "Military division, military division!" Gao Dashang has killed my Yanmen Pass, and I ask you to send reinforcements. ”
Xiao Dongfang saw that Yuan Xiaoxiang was excited, so he asked his subordinates to take him to rest first.
After Yuan Xiaoxiang went down, Xiao Dongfang thought for a while and said, "Someone." ”
At this time, a middle-aged man came from outside the door, and when he saw the person, Xiao Dongfang handed over the letter that had been prepared in advance to the other party and said: "Immediately send someone eight hundred miles to Kyoto urgently, present it to the lord, and this will also be handed over to the lord, but this is a flying pigeon to pass the book, saying that Xiao Dongfang will give another letter that has been prepared in advance to the middle-aged man who came in." ”
The visitor took the letter and replied, "Yes, and he retreated." ”
After the people retreated, Xiao Dongfang looked at Ye Jiu and said, "Thank you for saving me, you go down first, and when you repel Gao Dashang and Ji Tian, I am here to thank you." ”
Ye Jiu said: "Strategist, I have something to ask for?" ”
Xiao Dongfang said: "What is the matter with you?" ”
Ye Jiu said: "I want to stay here, and when the big battle comes, I want to kill the enemy together." ”
Xiao Dongfang nodded when he heard this: "Okay, then let people take Ye Jiu down to rest." ”
After Ye Jiu left, Xiao Dongfang sighed and said: "Yanmen Pass looks like it can't be saved, if Yanmen Pass is lost, the northern border will be in danger!" ”
Half a day later, Gao Dashang and Ji Tian's soldiers killed all the soldiers of Daliang at Yanmen Pass, and soon they occupied Yanmen Pass.
