Volume 2 Peach Blossom Smile Winter Wind Chapter 51 Twelve Red Butterfly Tails
Chapter 51: The Twelve Red Butterfly Tails
Half an hour later, there were few of the 10,000 defenders left at the head of the city, and less than 800 people were still struggling to support the head of the city.
The defenders under the city ladder behind him have all died, not as good as the narrow city wall outside the city, but the city is open and horizontal, there is no danger to defend, and there are more people to fight around, obviously, the manpower of the defenders of the west city is really not enough.
The front was almost unbearable, the enemy's offensive was intensifying, and Tuoba Su, who was in the realm of returning to the truth, had already shot with all his might, and the two short spears stepped forward, and with a wave of his hand, two lives were lost.
Bai Yi stood on the city wall, looked at the enemy troops that were about to rush up behind him, and closed his eyes bitterly.
The tide is over.
Tuoba Su slowly flew towards the head of the city, two short spears swirling around him, and all the eight hundred soldiers in the city took a step back.
Tuoba Su didn't say a word, and the Qiang army behind him gradually poured up, Tuoba Su waved his right hand forward, and a short spear stabbed into Bai Yi's chest.
The West City is broken.
Lao Zhangtou was still chatting with a few old men in the house, and when he was talking about the war back then, a cramped knock sounded on the door.
The old man with the bowl by the window stood up and went to open the door, thinking that he was familiar with it, but he was greeted by a soldier in armor of the Qingfu Army.
The Qingfu army has been stationed in Yinzhou, and they all know the armor they wear, but for some reason, when defending the city, there will be soldiers here.
"I am a soldier under Captain Xun Liudu, and I am ordered to come. I don't know if my father-in-law has firewood and coal at home? The soldier said straight to the point.
The man who opened the door hesitated for a moment and said, "The old man still has some left in his house, just behind the house, so he will take it, and there are still some left in a few neighborhoods." Several neighbors glanced at each other, and they didn't talk nonsense, maybe they had something to do with the military aircraft, and they went out together.
The old man who opened the door also went out.
Only Lao Zhangtou did not move, took the hot pot and poured a bowl of hot water, took a sip, smacked his lips, and said: "Old man, before I was discharged from the army, I was the deputy lieutenant of Zhenwei under the Qingfu Army from Liupin. ”
The soldier clenched his fists and said, "Forgive me for being rude." ”
In the Xiliang Army, regardless of whether they are discharged or not, the soldiers should be saluted to the generals.
"My lieutenant is not quite the same as others, he is the personal guard of General Xun, and the captain at that time was your general Xun Dang, and he will call me uncle when he sees me now. By the way, although the old man doesn't know a few words, half of the Qingfu Army at that time was from me and your generals. ”
glanced at the soldier coldly, this soldier lowered his head, and was already sweating like rain.
"It's just that in the end, I'm still old, Xun boy has also grown up, and he has become a one-sided general, and he has also experienced the beacon fire and wolf smoke of the battlefield, and he is a general, so naturally I don't need the old man, so I will unload my armor and return to the field, and find a clean old age in this Yinzhou City. ”
"Think about the old man's life on the battlefield, for thirty-eight years, none of the robes have survived, why did they die? For the generations of meritorious deeds of King Liang? For a certain meritorious service? Aren't they for the people of Xiliang behind them? You do such pickled things, how can I look at these robes!"
At the end, Lao Zhangtou was already angry, and smashed the porcelain bowl with a missing corner in his hand.
The soldier sat on the ground, tears flowed down his cheeks, and cried: "My lord, don't say it, I don't want to, since it is a military order, those of us who are pawns can only obey our orders." Xun Duwei said, Yinzhou City is not broken overnight, only within an hour, just because we can't hold until the reinforcements arrive, since we can't hold it, then we can't leave these Xiqiang barbarians. ”
The old man, who had just retrieved the firewood from the back of the house, shook his hand, and scattered more than a dozen firewood and seven or eight pieces of black coal were all scattered on the ground.
The West City has been broken, the last line of defense in Yinzhou has been breached, and the Xiqiang Army naturally entered the city with no scruples.
After receiving the news, the two armies of the north and south cities also led their troops into the city.
In the Assassin's Mansion, Li Huixiao, the Assassin of Yinzhou, was sitting in the mansion, with a bloody lancet in his hand.
He had never killed a chicken in half his life, and Fang Fang beheaded his wife and children in the house.
Li Huixiao, born in Xiliang, his family background is not cold but he is not Xuanhe, he read several sage books when he was a teenager and went to Gyeonggi to participate in the scientific examination.
Maybe Xiliang doesn't have that kind of temperament, after taking the test, Li Huixiao knows that he is two catties, compared with real readers, he just knows words.
But because he knows the words, he can go to the history of the four pins of Yinzhou, although the salary and silver are not much different from the captain of the seven-grade Zhiguo in the army, but in the final analysis, he is also the head of the local civil officials.
Although there is no one in the whole house except him, there is no one who reads.
Although in addition to him, the positions of Changshi, Don't Drive, Sima and so on are vacant one by one.
has been a "big official" for ten years, so that he is not confused at all, he doesn't dare to be sloppy at all, and the soldiers in the army look down on him, but only he knows that he has any talent to govern one side for the official, just literate, Yin Zhou is still in his hands, it is still a bitter cold place, and a few will freeze to death in winter.
For ten years, I didn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest.
However, he is middle-aged, and he is already white-headed.
Putting the lancet in his hand flat on the table, Li Huixiao heard a little noise outside the door, stepped over the corpses of his wife and children, took off the bloodstained three-chapter official clothes, and found a green shirt from the bottom of the box during the scientific expedition.
This green shirt is slightly fat after wearing it.
Walking out of the inner room, Li Huixiao picked up the coal in the stove and threw it directly into the house, his palm was burned and spasmed, but his face was still not sad or happy, and he continued to take out pieces of coal one after another and throw them into the inner room one by one.
The fire ignited in an instant.
"I, Li Huixiao, am not as good as the noble scholars in Gyeonggi, and my current knowledge can only be regarded as half a scholar. ”
"Li will be born tomorrow at the age of forty-one, and in the past forty-one years, he has not learned the talent of a scholar, but he has learned the very style of a scholar. ”
The fire of the Thorn Mansion suddenly appeared.
Flames rose from all over the city.
Xu Liangsheng couldn't believe his eyes at this time.
Less than a thousand recruits and soldiers had just left the city, and fires actually lit up everywhere in the city, and dark smoke rose up, and the entire Yinzhou City began to burn.
"The Qiang army attacked the city to destroy the city?" Xu Liangsheng suddenly raised a trace of doubt, the Qiang army spared the Xiliang sentry cavalry, and came to Yinzhou with all the hard work to destroy the city?
Xu Liangsheng couldn't figure it out at this time, but since a raging fire had already risen in Yinzhou, it would be meaningless to save it or not, and a burned city would have to give up no matter how important it was.
At this time, the recruits, who were less than a thousand, were even more dumbfounded.
"Lao Tzu wants to work hard, this city is so gone, blind me for this kind of kung fu!" Xu Bai grinned at this time, his shoulders shaking, so imposing.
"You can go now, the fire has just started, with your ability to open up the world and go down to earth, you may be able to save Yin Zhou with all your might. Sima Zhengye sneered on the side.
"You ......" Xu Bai glared at Sima Zhengye, looked at the igniting black smoke, and said leisurely: "This smoke, it's really black, it's black...... Ahh
Sima Zhengye directly kicked Xu Bai's ass.
"Don't make a fuss, we have to hurry up at this time, we are both two-legged, once the other party sends out the cavalry, we will have no place to die. A recruit next to him reminded with a stifled smile.
Nodding, Xu Liangsheng pointed to the south and said, "Go, go south." ”
"Not to the east?" asked Xu Baitian.
"No, we must go south to meet the reinforcements of Guiyi. Shaking his head, Xu Liangsheng explained.
"Listen to you. ”
The people marched south.
Yuwen Duxia was also shocked by the other party's decisiveness.
Destroy the city.
It's really a shame that the other party can come up with it?
Didn't you say that Xiliang Jun loved the people like children?
Yuwen Duxia looked at the bursts of black smoke rising from the entire Yinzhou, and felt depressed for a while, he finally won this Yinzhou City, but in the end he couldn't use it.
Tuoba Su walked to Yuwen Duxia's side, looked at Yuwen Duxia's sullen face, hesitated for a long time, and didn't come up with anything to authorize his own king.
He's depressed too!
Designing the capture of Xundang and the siege of the true and false offensive, which is not a method that I came up with after thinking for a long time, and now it is a big fire, and it is all over the place.
"How many soldiers have you lost?" Yuwen Duxia is a generation of male masters, and the situation is irreparable at this time, so he still cares about the present.
Tuoba Su's face was a little unsightly, and he slowly spoke: "The northern city of Yuntian suffered the smallest loss, about 4,000 people, the southern city was led by the prince of the world, and the loss of more than 15,000 people, and the western city suffered the heaviest loss, and I lost nearly 20,000 people. ”
With a slightly gloomy face, Tuoba Su continued: "The details are not clear, at this time, the fire is ignited, and there are still 10,000 people in Xiliang in the city, and many soldiers who have gone deep into the city have not been able to withdraw. ”
Yuwen Duxia's face is not very good-looking, has he paid such a heavy price? After three years of recuperation, Yinzhou has now lost half of its elite in the first battle.
"When will the rear army arrive?" In addition to the 100,000 elites at the moment, there are still 200,000 troops on the way.
"Tomorrow morning. ”
"Ordered the rear army, you don't have to come, go directly north to the sandbank. Tuoba Su's face was stunned, according to the plan, at this time, he should attack Guiyi and open up the grain road.
"There is no need to worry about the matter of grain and grass, knock down the sandbar, dredge the obstacles to the southward movement of the grassland, and have their own people to supply grain and grass for the army. ”
Nodding, Tuoba Su's figure flashed and disappeared in place.
"Motong Mountain, I don't know if you can see next spring. With a sneer, Yuwen Duxia looked to the east.
Dunhuang.
Mo Bai, who had just gotten married, was standing on the stone bridge in the courtyard, feeding the goldfish in the small lake.
The two young ladies of the fifth family sat far away in the pavilion, meowing vigilantly from time to time.
Ignoring the gazes of the two, Mo Bai took out a handful of fish food in his arms and threw it into the small lake.
Everyone thought that the prince was married, and it was the newlywed Yan'er at this time, so he never left the house.
In fact, Mo Bai has not had a kiss to Fangze until now, but because the weather is getting colder, Mo Bai is weighing his own lake of goldfish, and is thinking about catching all these fish in the past two days.
When the lake freezes, you won't be able to see it.
The two eldest ladies of the fifth family sneered at him, and drove him out without saving any face on the night of the cave room.
Mo Bai, who has entered the anti-void, is useless, anyway, he has no interest in these two beauties, and he is most disgusted with this kind of political marriage.
"How can I look good as a goldfish. ”
This goldfish was bought in Chang'an for thirty taels of silver.
It is called the Twelve Red Butterfly Tails.
