Chapter 615: Approaching Taiyuan
readx;
From Dilu to Jingjing, after passing the Xiao Annihilation Pass, it is equivalent to entering the territory of Shanxi from the Beijing Division. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info And the road of Xiao Annihilation Pass happens to be the road leading directly to Taiyuan Mansion.
To the east of the well diameter, it is basically an area that Jiangxia can control. So he came all the way, basically without any obstacles, and on the way he also met many people who came to sneak around and flatter.
For these people, Jiang Xia did not meet them, so the speed of rushing to Taiyuan was not slow.
The king of Qi in Shanxi claimed to have 200,000 troops in Shanxi. This number is naturally bragging, he is just a hereditary prince, and he had no power in the court before, and there were 3,000 armor soldiers killed in his family. It is absolutely impossible to have 200,000 troops in a short period of time.
It's just that King Qi bought a large number of materials and equipment before and sent them to Xuanfu and Datong, and won the recognition and loyalty of many border generals, so the speed of his army accumulation is really not slow.
There may not be an army of 200,000, but it is really possible to have 780,000 or even 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Jiangxia dared to conquer Shanxi with 10,000 cavalry and 8,000 infantry, which was no different from sending sheep into the tiger's mouth and sending them to death.
But what the specific result is, it depends on what Jiangxia is going to do after he arrives in Shanxi. After all, Jiang Xia has been in Daming for so many years, and there are too many miracles he has created, great things he has done, and even the people who have been planted in his hands. Many times people have a blind cognition, thinking that as long as Jiangxia is out of the horse, there is nothing that cannot be done.
On the Shanxi side, after the King of Qi experienced the failure of attacking the Jingshi, his strength was also greatly damaged. Now I heard that Jiangxia was coming to Shanxi, so I tried my best to put together all the time, but in the end, I only got enough 60,000 soldiers and horses. And he, who had 60,000 male soldiers, did not dare to take the initiative to provoke Jiang Xia.
It's not because he knows that the 10,000 cavalry were born in the martial arts hall, all of them are well-trained, and the 8,000 infantry are from the elite of the thousand sects, and everyone has extraordinary martial arts. It is because of the prestige that "Jiangxia" has accumulated in the past years.
When Jiang Xia came to Xiao Annihilation Pass, the gate of Xiao Annihilation Pass was closed. There were originally only 8,000 defenders in this pass, but now it has increased to 30,000 at once. In order to prevent Jiangxia from entering Taiyuan.
But why did Jiang Xia only bring 18,000 people out, in order to attract King Qi, King Lu, and Miao Renhu to take the initiative to come to him for trouble.
Xue Ruqin and Yang Yiqing were both seriously injured, which could be regarded as completely infuriating Jiang Xia. He rushed all the way to Taiyuan, not because he had any plans or layouts, but because of ...... Shanxi is relatively close to Beijing.
In the middle of the cavalry team, Jiang Xia, who was riding a jujube red horse under his crotch, was looking up at the group of soldiers and generals who were nervously guarding the city tower at this moment.
The people on the city tower were next to each other, all pulling bows and arrows, although the distance between the two sides was still far away, but the tension on the city tower could be felt by anyone.
Jiang Xia roared lightly: "Cavalry shield ready!"
Ten thousand cavalrymen immediately untied a shield from their saddles and raised it. At the same time, they drew the long knives they were carrying in the saddle.
"Infantry rattan card, flying claw ready!"
Eight thousand infantrymen took out rattan cards and flying claws from their back wraps. Nangong Guang, the guard standing on the city tower, was shocked when he saw this scene, there were only 20,000 people at the bottom, and there were a total of 30,000 guards on the city tower.
Of course, this posture made by Jiang Xia is obviously about to attack hard.
Dressed in light armor, he rode a big horse and stood in the crowd, looking particularly tall and heroic. If it was in the past, maybe Jiangxia would have tricked the city gate open. But today, he is not in the mood for this, because he just wants to kill some people happily and avenge his wife and father-in-law.
Call......
Nangong Guang suddenly felt his heart shrink twice, although he didn't know Jiang Xia, but at this moment, Jiang Xia, who was stationed in the cavalry group, looked at him, and still made Nangong Guang understand that he saw Jiang Xia.
For a while, it seemed that the heavens and the earth were silent.
After a few breaths, I only heard Jiang Xia faintly utter a syllable: "Kill." ”
"Kill!" Zhang Meng, who came out with Jiang Xia, shouted wildly, and then the cavalry moved when he heard the sound, and the horse's hooves were raised almost at the same time, rushing out at the same time.
While rushing up to Xiao Annihilation Pass, the formation of the entire cavalry remained almost unchanged.
"Release the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows!" Nangong Guang was stunned for five or six breaths before he reacted and ordered. But in fact, he didn't need to give an order, the arrows had already been released.
The defenders were nervous when the cavalry was just starting to move, and they released all the arrows. But in reality, the cavalry was not yet within range.
After one round of arrows are missed, it takes about six breaths to start shooting the second round.
And in this six-breath time, Jiang Xia and the others had already rushed to a distance of less than four hundred meters from Xiao Annihilation Pass. The horses they ride under their crotches are all five-flowered horses, and their explosive power and endurance are the best among horses.
When the guards on the city tower had set up the second round of arrows, they were about to shoot them, but Jiang Xia flew up in the air.
He pulled out the Long Yuan sword from his waist and threw it into the city wall. Then, when Jiang Xia was exhausted in one breath of true qi, his toes lightly tapped on the sword, and the whole person suddenly rose sharply again, flying over the city wall in one fell swoop.
After falling to the castle tower, Jiang Xia pulled his steel knife from the waist of one of the guards with lightning speed, and then slashed left and right.
In such an environment, Jiang Xia didn't need to use any martial arts moves at all, anyway, they were all one by one.
The guards hurriedly rushed to Jiangxia's side, and Nangong Guang also shouted loudly: "Kill! Kill him at all costs!"
But in the middle of this gap, the cavalry had already run under the city gates. They took out the claws from the bags they had tied to their saddles, threw them at the walls, and after grasping the battlements, the cavalry climbed up the towers.
And then the same goes for the infantry.
At the time of the rise of Jiangxia, many cavalry and infantry had climbed the tower. Then more and more people went up to the tower, and finally the guards on the tower could not support it.
I don't know who shouted: "I can't beat it, run." ”
Then the whole tower of the city began to flee.
Far away, Jiang Xia threw the steel knife in his hand. The steel knife was like having eyes, and directly cut off Nangong Guang's head.
As soon as Nangong Guang died, it was only a matter of time before Xiao Anguan was defeated.
After Xiao Annihilation broke through, Jiangxia did not rush into Taiyuan, but the marching speed slowed down. In this way, the news that he broke the Xiao Annihilation Pass was known to King Qi in advance.
In the palace of King Qi of Taiyuan Mansion, after learning the news that Xiao Annihilation Pass was broken and 30,000 defenders were defeated, King Qi was frightened and fainted on the spot...... r1058
