Chapter 171: Defeat

Wager sent people to call for battle, Xiahou Xuanyi heard the scolding below, and was impulsively ready to go desperately, Tang Juntong did not leave the city after a few words of comfort.

Now is not the time to go out, after the daytime World War I people are sleepy and tired, and if they fight with people, they may be damaged, so they should be repaired and wait for dawn to report to General Xiahou.

Xiahou Xuan didn't go out of the city at this time, but in the middle of the night, Wagle actually ordered the siege of the city, and the Tatar soldiers under the city set up a ladder, and rushed up with a scimitar in their hands.

The walls of Qingyang City were badly damaged after the battle of the day, and it would be a little difficult to resist the Tatar army again.

The difficulty of the Great Xia army on the city wall to resist, the equipment on the city wall has been used almost in the daytime, and now the only remaining materials are used to kill the enemy is a little poor, and the Tatar army that came up directly splashed with water and cut with a knife to block the attack of the Tatar army, but it is a pity that the more people are fighting.

From time to time, the Tatar army jumped on the city wall and fought with the Great Xia army, and there were more and more Tatar troops, Tang Juntong and Xiahou Xuan had already killed red eyes, and they slashed blood one by one.

As more and more people came up, the two were gradually surrounded in the middle, some Tatar soldiers jumped off the city wall and walked to the city gate to open the city gate, after opening the city gate, the Tatar iron cavalry army directly entered the city, Wagger smiled viciously: "Kill me!"

Countless Tatar soldiers flocked to the city and engaged in close combat with the Great Xia army in the city.

Xiahou Zhong's tent was also sleepless all night, and Xiao Xinrong was discussing the next battle plan.

"This Wagger is the second prince born to the second lady in Tatar, he is vicious and ruthless, and this time people from dozens of tribes came to attack our dynasty, in order to go back and share the world with the eldest prince after making a contribution. ”

"It is rumored that the eldest prince is kind and gentle, and he does not like war, and this time he has strongly opposed the dispatch of troops, but it is a pity that under the persuasion of the second prince, most of the generals of the tribe agree with the plan of the second prince, so that 100,000 people can come out to attack. ”

Xiao Xinrong explained Wagger's bottom line clearly in a few words, and Xiahou's eyebrows were twisted together: "In this way, the internal contradictions in Tatar are also relatively deep, is the prince ......?"

"Yes, this king wants to go to the Tatar palace in person, take advantage of the grievances between the two, and persuade the eldest prince to cooperate with us, and we will take action to rectify the second prince and remove obstacles for him. ”

"This plan is very good, but it is too risky for the prince to go in person, I don't know how sure the prince is?"

"Fifty percent sure. ”

"This certainty is too small, no, I don't agree with you to take this risk, we are thinking of other ways. Xia Houzhong didn't want to shake his head and deny his proposal.

Xiao Xinrong saw that Xiahou Zhong did not agree with his plan, and said slowly: "Although it is only fifty percent sure, it can also be tried, now Wagle is menacing, and our soldiers are not very suitable for the climate here when they arrive at the border pass in the Central Plains, and the diarrhea incident that occurred a while ago is afraid that it will happen once, and if it happens, the combat effectiveness will be directly reduced." ”

"In the summer, the wind and sand are heavy and the rain is less, and the temperature is even more changeable, and I am afraid that the soldiers will not be able to support it at all, and the longer this war drags on, the more bad it will be for us. ”

Needless to say about Xiao Xinrong, Xiahou Zhong also knows the stakes, but he can't risk the life of the prince.

After pondering for a while, he said: "If this is the case, I will find someone else to go forward, and the prince can't go and take this risk!"

Xiao Xinrong shook his head when he heard this: "This king understands Tatar dialect, and he can also say some of it, if this king goes in person, having this identity will make the eldest prince trust our sincerity even more." ”

Xiahou Zhongjian and the two of them couldn't convince anyone, so they had to say: "This matter is very important, the prince will let me think about it later." ”

Not long after Xiao Xinrong left, Xiahou Zhong received a report from the messenger that now Xiahou Xuan and Tang Jun were trapped in Qingyang City, and Wagger led the soldiers to make a comeback, lest Chengyang City be in danger and ask the general for support.

The soldiers were fast, and Xiahou Zhong summoned the soldiers in the city and rushed to support.

Xiahou Xuan and Tang Juntong here couldn't resist it, Tang Juntong and Xiahou Xuan stood back to back with weapons in their hands, and the Tatar soldiers who were eyeing each other around saw the opportunity from time to time and slashed forward, the knife in Tang Juntong's hand had already been cut into the blade, and Xiahou Xuan behind him was trembling slightly because he had been fighting for too long.

Tang Jun slashed down a soldier who tried to sneak attack Xiahou Xuan with the same knife, Xiahou Xuan threw a grateful glance, and without saying a word of thanks, he was surrounded again.

Xiahou Xuan's guards not far away tried to get close to him and rescue him, but unfortunately there were Tatar soldiers everywhere, and he was directly besieged before he could reach his side.

After a long time, dragging everyone tired and tired, Tang Juntong kicked over the few people around him and snatched their war horses, stretched out his hand to Xiahou Xuan and shouted: "Give me your hand!"

Xiahou Xuan stretched out his hand, and after Tang Jun pulled the two of them on the horse, they ran directly to the city gate. Tang Juntong galloped on his horse, and Xiahou Xuan waved the spear in his hand behind him to knock over the resisting Tatar soldiers directly.

When he was about to go out of the city gate and was discovered by Wagel, he saw that it was a general in armor, and the scimitar in his hand pointed: "Don't let those two escape!"

The Tatar soldiers chased after the two of them, and Tang Juntong slapped the war horse under him and rushed out desperately.

As soon as the two of them fled, the Great Xia army behind them collapsed and fled outside the city after the two.

Xiahou Xuan and Tang Juntong, who were out of the city, did not dare to stay, and led the people who escaped until they stopped to rest in the forest, and Ma Lei collapsed directly to the ground.

Counting the people who followed, there were less than 30,000 of the 50,000 horses left at the time, which was a huge loss. Looking at the scarred remnants behind him, Xiahou Xuan punched the trunk of the tree in annoyance.

Tang Juntong also had a color on his body, this would be a soldier to help bandage, different from Xiahou Xuan's anger, he would be observing the terrain everywhere, thinking about the escape route.

At this moment, there was a burst of horses' hooves behind them, and the two looked at each other, it was not Wagger's people who chased here, and now the soldiers who followed were all remnants of the beaten down, and they had no fighting spirit to kill the enemy in a short period of time, and it was difficult to win if they were really opposed.

Thinking of this, Xiahou Xuan waved his hand, and the soldiers followed behind him and walked towards the depths of the forest.

Walking into the mountains and forests, Wager lost the traces of Xiahou Xuan and others, and it didn't take long for Le Ma to stop and the scouts came to report: "The traces of the Great Xia army have been found in front of the king, and the people have entered the mountains and forests. ”

Wager dismounted, waved his hand, and everyone behind him jumped off his horse and quietly walked into the woods.
