Royal Road

"Supervisor Pei is dead? How did he die?" After he finally settled in the camp and caged the group of soldiers who had almost collapsed, he heard the news. Linghusheng's face was sinking, his heart was not at all sad, only irritability and anger were left.

The Liu Changshi who was thrown by you is still alive, why did you, the governor, died? Is it possible that there are enemies behind? !

However, the answer he got was even more outrageous than expected.

"The governor, the governor seems to have died... by falling from a horse..." The soldier who sent the letter stammered, "Just before the heavy camp, when Lieutenant Zhang hurried away, he was already out of breath..."

"Where are his soldiers?"

"All, all escaped."

Linghusheng was silent for a long while, and sighed wearily: "It was said that the governor desperately killed the enemy and died unfortunately."

Throwing down the handsome flag and escaping halfway, he also fell to his death. The morale blow was devastating. Besides, Pei Dun is also a Pei family, and he still needs to have the decentness he deserves.

After giving a simple order, Linghusheng threw the bad stuff behind his head. To be honest, he didn't even think about how Pei Dun died. The accidental death of this man actually solved his own heartache. Now you don't need to attack Lishi any more, you can finally retreat.

But how to return to the teacher, but you have to think carefully.

"Liu Hu's army has surrounded Jinyang?" Linghusheng turned his head and asked his nephew.

Linghu Kuang anxiously said: "It is true. It is said that there are as many as ten thousand people, and they also brought the cavalry from Baibu Xianbei. They have begun to attack the city. Uncle, please rescue Jinyang immediately!

Unexpectedly, Linghusheng shook his head: "You can't be hasty! Now that the wolves and the tigers rush back to help, they will only end up with the enemy."

Now it seems that the Xiongnu had long been prepared for this Jinyang dispatch. Otherwise, Liu Hu would not have sent troops to attack Jinyang as soon as he arrived in Xihe Country. There are thousands of fine knights who have just broken the Chinese army, and the leader is not a simple figure. If you go back to rescue Jinyang rashly, maybe the army will be embellished by the Huns behind you. At that time, Liu Hu will send some more Xianbei people, and the only people left may not be able to keep it.

"Before the expedition, the envoy guessed that Liu Hu might reinvigorate the army. He must also have an afterthought. Now the Shangdang soldiers and horses have also gone to the rescue, Jinyang should be able to hold on for some time. We have not lost our food and grass. It can be regarded as a mourning soldier, as long as you stabilize your position and retreat slowly. You must be able to give the Huns a chance!"

Linghu Kuang was stunned for a moment before he had to admit that his uncle was right. If you act rashly, don't say whether you can save Jinyang, but Liu Hu's 10,000 soldiers and horses, plus the 10,000 Huns behind him, are enough to crush them. If the soldiers and horses on hand were also folded clean, Jinyang would not be able to keep it.

Suppressing the depression in his heart, Linghu Kuang whispered: "You know! Jinyang has an envoy to guard him after all, and the soldiers will not mess up their minds."

This is the influence of a chief officer who possesses both desirability and ability on the morale of the military. If it is a change of other people, who can guarantee that Jinyang can survive the emptiness of the city and the presence of a large army? But with Liang Cishi, almost no one worried that he would lose. Those legendary experiences have long given him a halo. As long as there is an envoy, they seem to be fearless.

Seeing that his nephew had also thought about it, Linghusheng sighed slightly: "The order is passed on, and the army will start to retreat tomorrow!"

I thought that the winning ticket was in hand, but when I woke up, it changed. Liu Cong looked at the slowly retreating army and couldn't help frowning. This is not like running away in a hurry after the big defeat. On the contrary, the Jin army retreats very well, the formation is not leaking, and the camp is solid. It was a battle that didn't cost ten times the effort and increased a lot of casualties.

Knowing that Jinyang was surrounded, he could still be so calm. Are they not afraid that it will be too late to go back, and Jinyang will be taken by Liu Hu?

However, no matter how unwilling he is, Liu Cong can only reorganize the team and wait for the opportunity behind the Jin army. After walking in tandem for a whole day like this, Liu Cong finally couldn't help it.

"Only retreat more than 30 miles a day, when can I get to Jinyang?!" He Qingqi rushed forward, without much grain. After the great famine in Lishi, it was unable to support the army. Just retreat for three or five days, and the food and grass on your side will be stretched first, so what else? !

"Order Liu Hu, let him send Baibu Xianbei to support!" Liu Cong finally made up his mind.

Let go of the thought of striving for merit. Winning is the key. This Jin army expedition to Lishi, he must eat it! Only by destroying this team, will it be possible to attack Jinyang. Once Jinyang is defeated, the rock-solid Shangdang will also fall apart, and taking Bingzhou at that time will be like exploring the bag and retrieving things. This credit is several times stronger than that of Liu Yao!

Following the fast horse, Liu Cong's order arrived at Jinyang City. In the simple camp, Liu Hu was also full of anger. What he said is also the descendant of King Youxian of the Huns, but now he is obedient to Liu Yuan, who was born in Tu Gebu. Even if Liu Yuan claimed to be a descendant of Yu Fuluo Shanyu, can these real descendants of the Huns still know that it was the twists and turns inside?

Due to the general situation, it was enough to defect to Liu Yuan, and now juniors like Liu Cong are here to point their fingers. Doesn't he also have more than ten thousand soldiers and horses in his hands? How come the mere 20,000 Jin troops can't be wiped out? This Jinyang City is even more terrible, it's the third day, and it's still too long to attack! How many soldiers are there in the city? Is it possible that the surnamed Liang can become thousands of soldiers and Malays?

However, no matter how depressed he was, he still had to put on a docile appearance towards Liu Yuan's beloved son. Pretending to be hearty, Liu Hu laughed: "The Fujun general has orders, how dare you not follow it? It just so happens that Suwajiro has been bored for a long time, and it's time to let go and fight."

Baibu Xianbei, also known as Suhe Tribe, was originally a vassal of Tuoba Tribe. But after Tuoba Yiyu passed away and the clan began the battle for the throne, their other tribes moved their minds and reached an agreement with Liu Hu to vote for the Hun nation together. This time he came to attack Jinyang, Baibu also sent a full two thousand cavalry. But letting these Xianbeier attack the city is really hard for them. The past few days have just been flying arrows and cheering. Now that Liu Cong comes to ask for help, it may not be an opportunity. It is obviously much more cost-effective to let this group of Xianbei fight Daying than to fight the city.

And after the outgoing Jin army is annihilated, will Liu Cong give up attacking Jinyang? At that time Chengke will still have his own credit!

After thinking about it, Liu Hu naturally answered simply. After the order was passed, the group of Xianbei immediately became excited, and one by one, they mounted their horses and rushed towards the lamb to be slaughtered.

It's been three days! Zhang He only felt that he had tolerated it to the limit, and a burst of flames came out of his mouth. However, his immediate boss still didn't make the slightest move to send troops.

The lord has been guarding that lonely city for three days! How many soldiers are there in the city? Do you really have to wait until the city is broken before sending troops to rescue it? If it weren't for Zhang He who knew that Yi Yan was the confidant of the Lord, he would have doubted if he was ready to die!

Not only Zhang He, but all the soldiers hidden in Longshan have accumulated the same anxiety and strong killing intent. These people were all born in the Liang Mansion, they were the confidants in their confidantes, the elite of the elite, each tied himself to the Liang Mansion and the lord. No one can tolerate that the Patriarch, who is like a god-man, has an accident.

How long will you have to wait? When is the head? !

When the thirst for fighting was about to burst, Yi Yan finally issued a military order.

"The enemy army left Jinyang with two thousand horses and turned to Lishi. Tiger Wolf Battalion blocked the attack, and Yong Rui Battalion cooperated with the cavalry to counterattack the enemy army!

finally come! After all the cavalry in Tiger Wolf Camp was dispatched, Zhang He lighted up his troops and rushed towards Jinyang!

※

Su He Leopard also held back for a long time. Jinyang is like a slaughterhouse. No matter how many soldiers are thrown every day, they will eventually turn into fleshy fireballs and fall to the head of the city. These Xianbei athletes even participated in the battle to capture the city, but they couldn't attack if they couldn't get it! The tall city wall of Jinyang is like a forbidden place for ghosts, and no one can take a step.

Seeing the ten thousand soldiers hit eight thousand, their cavalry was a little unable to sit still. Siege of the city shouldn't be the Xianbei people's business, the field battle is!

It happened that Liu Cong came to ask for help. Without a word, he lighted up his soldiers and ran towards Lishi. It is said that Liu Cong has already won a battle, and the enemy captains all died in battle. Such a group of bereaved dogs, are they afraid that it will be broken at one blow?

Just thinking about how to break through the enemy camp and grab some more money for ordnance in front of the Huns, Su He Leopard's ears suddenly moved and raised his head. There was also the sound of horseshoes in front, and there were quite a lot of people! what happened? Is there an ambush?

However, the next moment, a group of Huns cavalry appeared at the end of the road. The number of people was about fifteen and six, and the horses rushed towards this side. Su He Bao couldn't help slowing his horse speed, and said to the commander beside him: "Does your general send troops to pick us up?"

Did Liu Cong have other plans and sent cavalry to welcome him?

The messenger was also a little confused. Could it be that there has been a change in the front? However, after a short while, he suddenly exclaimed: "No! That's not a soldier of the Han country!"

His response was not unpleasant, but it was late after all! The oncoming cavalry did not slow down at all, and galloped into range like a thunder—not with a horse bow, but with a crossbow—one thousand and five hundred crossbows shot in the cold, like a rain of arrows like flying locusts. Xianbei leaped forward!

It is good for Xianbei people to ride and shoot Wushuang, but it is not to say that they are Xianbei people, even if they are gods, they can't escape such an attack! After a shower of arrows, half of the Xianbei cavalry fell to their horses. The rest were roaring, wanting to draw a knife to meet, but the enemy on horseback pulled the bowstring again, this time it is a real hard bow, like the most skilled nomad hunter, the second round of arrow rain is here!

Like weeds blown down by a strong wind, Su He Leopard was missing most of them in a flash. He also reacted extremely quickly, and raised the wooden shield in his hand. That was the case, he also hit two arrows in the shoulder and thigh. However, even at an extreme disadvantage, he did not have any fear. On the contrary, pain and anger ignited the killing intent. With a roar, Su He Leopard drew his scimitar and rushed towards the cavalry team!

Among the tribes, Su and Leopard are also warriors one by one. Few people can survive his one-piece power. Unexpectedly, in the enemy formation, a white horse rushed out like a dragon, and the silver chain was like a knife, exploding in front of this Xianbei brave general!

That unstoppable blow was desperately blocked by Su He Leopard. But the next moment, the machete in his hand, the helmet on his face, and the flesh and blood between his neck were severely split by the long knife. The pair of gray-blue eyes flashed by with a killing intent and chill, didn't even linger on him for a moment. Su He Leopard shook, and then planted their horses.

Under the guidance of the white horse, Qianwu Jing rode like a broken bamboo, tearing the Xianbei people's broken line. The killing sounded like thunder, and the blood burst into the sky!

Half an hour later, Liu Hu looked towards the horizon with a bit of amazement. There was a cavalry there, no more than two thousand men, and it seemed to be a fierce battle. Whose family is it? Didn't Suwa just leave from that direction? But the team of people did not give him time to be confused, like iron-grey muddy waves, rushing towards the city.

Oops! Liu Hu suddenly stood up: "It's the enemy! The enemy's reinforcements!"

What exactly is Liu Cong doing? Can more than 10,000 people look down on the Jin army? What do vegetarian and leopards do? ! But no matter how you hate it, it's too late. If it is not too late today, there are still many soldiers under his command who are attacking the city and are unable to defend.

Before he came up with a countermeasure, a **** also appeared on the other side, like a ghost that appeared suddenly, rushing towards him! A two-sided attack, even if the number of people is small, is enough to make his tired soldiers defeated!

"Quick! Hurry up and organize a counterattack!" Liu Hu climbed onto the horse in embarrassment, and greeted him with more than a thousand soldiers beside him, trying to stop the offensive...

Above the city, Liang Feng exhaled a long breath as he watched the soldiers and horses fighting under the city.

"Come on, beat the drums to help!"

He finally waited. And Yi Yan also fulfilled his strict instructions. This battle will not be defeated!

The drums of war rumbling, resounding through the city of Jinyang and the wilderness under the city, echoing endlessly between the dead mountain and the sea of ​​blood!
