Royal road

"Doctor Pei died? How did he die?" After finally settling down in the camp and trapping the group of soldiers who were about to collapse, he heard the news.Linghu Sheng's face was also sinking, and there was no sadness in his heart, only restlessness and anger.

Liu Changshi, who was left behind by you, is still alive, why did you, the governor, die instead?Could it be that there are enemies behind? !

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

"Captain, Commander seems to... fell to his death from a horse..." The soldier who delivered the letter stammered, "Just before the supply camp, when Captain Zhang rushed to him, he was already dead..."

"Where are his soldiers?"

"All, all escaped."

Linghu Sheng was silent for a while, then sighed wearily: "Let's just say that the governor desperately killed the enemy and unfortunately died."

Throwing down the handsome flag and fleeing halfway, he fell off the horse and died, which was a devastating blow to morale.Besides, Pei Dun was also a son of the Pei family, so he still had to have the dignity he deserved.

After a simple order, Linghu Sheng put this bad thing behind him.To be honest, he didn't even want to ask how Pei Dun died.The accidental death of this person, on the contrary, solved the serious trouble in his heart.Now there is no need to attack Lishi anymore, and finally the troops can be withdrawn.

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

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

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

Unexpectedly, Linghu Sheng shook his head: "You can't be hasty! Now, if you rush back to help, you will only end up with the enemy."

Now it seems that the Xiongnu had long been prepared for this Jinyang dispatch.Otherwise, Liu Hu wouldn't have sent troops to attack Jinyang as soon as he came to Xihe Country.There are also thousands of fine cavalry who almost crushed the Chinese army, and the leader of the army is not a simple person.If you go back to rescue Jinyang rashly, maybe the army will be surrounded by the Huns behind you before it starts.At that time, Liu Hu will send some Xianbei people again, and the remaining troops may not be able to keep them.

"Before the expedition, the envoy guessed that Liu Hu might raise troops. He must have a countermeasure. Now that the Shangdang soldiers and horses have also gone to the rescue, Jinyang should be able to guard for a while. Our food and grass are not lost. It can be regarded as a mourning army, as long as you hold your ground and retreat slowly. It will definitely give the Huns an opportunity!"

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 1 soldiers and more than [-] Huns behind him are enough to crush them.If the soldiers and horses at hand are also broken, Jinyang will not be able to keep it.

Suppressing the depression in his heart, Linghu Kuang said in a low voice: "My child knows! After all, Jinyang is guarded by an envoy, so the soldiers will not be distracted."

This is the impact of a chief officer with both popularity and ability on the morale of the army.If it were someone else, who could guarantee that Jinyang would not be lost when the city was empty and a large army was approaching?But with Governor Liang around, almost no one worried that he would lose the battle.Those legendary experiences had cast a halo on him long ago.As long as there is an envoy, they seem to be fearless.

Seeing that his nephew had thought clearly, Linghu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Send the order, and the troops will start withdrawing tomorrow!"

■

At first, he thought that he had the chance to win, but when he woke up, he changed his appearance.Looking at the slowly retreating army, Liu Cong frowned.This is not like fleeing in a hurry after a big defeat.On the contrary, the Jin army retreated very measuredly, the formation was leak-free, and the camp was also firmly established.It is the kind of battle that can never be eaten without spending ten times more effort and increasing a large number of casualties.

Knowing that Jinyang was besieged, he could still be so calm.Aren't they afraid that it will be too late to go back and Jinyang will be taken by Liu Hu?

However, no matter how unwilling he was, Liu Cong could only reorganize his team and wait behind the Jin army for an opportunity.After walking back and forth like this for a whole day, Liu Cong finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"I only retreated more than 30 miles a day, when will I get to Jinyang?!" He rushed forward on a light horse and didn't bring much food and grass.After the great famine in Lishi, it was not enough to support the army rations.Just retreat for three to five days, and the food and grass on my side will be stretched first, so why fight? !

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

Let go of the thought of striving for merit.Winning is the key.He must eat up this Jin army that went on an expedition to Lishi!Only when this army is wiped out can it be possible to attack Jinyang.And once Jinyang is defeated, the rock-solid Shangdang will fall apart, and taking Bingzhou at that time will be like picking something out of a bag.This credit is several times stronger than that kid Liu Yao!

Following the fast horse, Liu Cong's order arrived at the city of Jinyang.In the simple tent, Liu Hu was also full of sullen anger.No matter what he said, he is also a descendant of Qubei, the Youxian King of the Huns, but now he has to obey Liu Yuan, who was born in various tribes.Even if Liu Yuan declared that he was the descendant of Yu Fuluo Shanyu, they, the real descendants of the Huns, would not know the twists and turns in it?

Due to the general situation, it is fine to go to Liu Yuan, and now juniors like Liu Cong are here to point fingers.Doesn't he have more than ten thousand soldiers and horses in his hand?Why can't the [-] Jin army be wiped out?This Jinyang City is even more frustrating, it has been the third day, and it is still unable to attack for a long time!How many soldiers are there in the city?Could it be that the man surnamed Liang could conjure tens of thousands of soldiers?

However, no matter how depressed he was in his heart, he still had to put on an obedient appearance towards Liu Yuan's beloved son.Pretending to be cheerful, Liu Hu laughed: "General Fu Jun has an order, how dare the last general not obey? It just so happens that those Su and Erlang have been depressed for a long time, and it is time to let go and fight a battle."

The Baibu Xianbei, also known as the Suhe tribe, was originally a vassal of the Tuoba tribe.But after Tuoba Yiyi passed away and the battle for the throne began within the clan, these other tribes moved their minds and reached an agreement with Liu Hu to vote for the Xiongnu Han Kingdom together.This time to attack Jinyang, the Baibu also sent a full [-] cavalry.But it is really difficult for these Xianbei children to attack the city.The past few days were just shooting arrows at the formation to cheer them on.It might be an opportunity for Liu Cong to ask for help now.It is obviously much more cost-effective to let these Xianbei people fight the camp than to fight the city.

And after the Jin army that went out is wiped out, will Liu Cong give up attacking Jinyang?At that time, Cheng Ke will still have his own credit!

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

■

It has been three days!Zhang He only felt that he had reached the limit of what he could endure, and his mouth burst into flames.However, his immediate boss still didn't make any move to send troops.

The lord has guarded that lonely city for three days!How many soldiers are there in the city?Is it really necessary to wait for the city to break before sending troops to rescue it?If Zhang He didn't know that Yiyan was the lord's confidant, he would have wondered if he was going to die!

Not only Zhang He, but all the soldiers hidden in Longshan accumulated the same anxiety and killing intent.These people are all from the Liang Mansion, they are the confidants of the confidantes, the elite of the elite, and each of them tied themselves to the Liang Mansion and the lord.No one can tolerate the accident of that god-like patriarch.

How long do we have to wait?When is the head? !

When his thirst for war was about to explode, Yiyan finally issued a military order.

"Two thousand cavalry of the enemy army left Jinyang and turned to Lishi. The Tiger Wolf Battalion blocked it, and the Yongrui Battalion cooperated with the cavalry to counterattack the enemy below the city!"

finally come!After all the cavalry from the Tiger Wolf Battalion were dispatched, Zhang He set up his men and horses and rushed towards Jinyang!

■

Su and Leopard also held back for a long time, Jinyang is like a slaughterhouse, no matter how many soldiers are thrown on it every day, they will eventually turn into fireballs of meat paste and fall to the top of the city.These Xianbei athletes even participated in the battle to seize the city, but if they can't attack it, they can't attack it!The tall city wall of Jinyang is like a forbidden place for ghosts and ghosts, no one is allowed to set foot.

Seeing that the [-] soldiers had reached [-], the cavalry couldn't sit still.Siege shouldn't be the Xianbei's business, field battles are!

It happened that Liu Cong came to ask for help, so without saying a word, he set up his troops and ran towards Lishi.It is said that Liu Cong had already won a battle, and the enemy's commander-in-chief was killed in battle.Such a group of bereaved dogs, I am afraid that they will be destroyed in one blow, right?

Just as they were thinking about how to break through the enemy camp and get more money and food before the Huns, Su and Leopard suddenly moved their ears and raised their heads.There was also the sound of horseshoes in front of them, 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.There were about one thousand five or six people, and the imperial horses galloped towards this side.Su and Leopard couldn't help slowing down their horses, and said to the herald next to them: "Is your general sending troops to pick us up?"

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

The herald was also a little confused, could it be that there was a change ahead?However, after a short while, he suddenly exclaimed: "No! Those are not Han soldiers!"

His reaction was not unpleasant, but it was too late after all!The oncoming cavalry did not slow down at all, and galloped into the range like a thunderbolt—not horse bows, but hand crossbows—[-] hand crossbows shot coldly, like a rain of arrows like locusts, towards Xianbei rushes forward!

It's good for Xianbei people to ride and shoot Wushuang, but not to mention Xianbei people, even if they come from gods, they can't escape such an attack!After a shower of arrows, half of the Xianbei cavalry fell off their horses.The rest of them shouted angrily and wanted to draw their knives to meet them, but the enemy on horseback drew their bowstring again, this time it was a real hard bow, just like the most skilled nomadic hunter, the second round of arrow rain came!

Like weeds blown down by a strong wind, Su and Leopard lost most of their people in just a moment.He also reacted very quickly, narrowly raising the wooden shield in his hand.Even so, he was also hit by two arrows in the shoulder and thigh.However, even at an extreme disadvantage, he didn't feel the slightest bit of fear. On the contrary, the pain and anger ignited the killing intent.With a loud roar, Su and Leopard drew out their scimitars and rushed towards the team of cavalrymen!

Among the tribe, Su and Leopard are also one-on-one warriors.Few people can support his combined efforts.Unexpectedly, in the enemy's formation, a large white horse as vigorous as a dragon rushed out, and the sword light like a silver chain exploded in front of this brave general of Xianbei!

That unstoppable blow was blocked by Su and Leopard desperately.But at the next moment, the scimitar in his hand, the helmet on his face, and the flesh and blood around his neck were severed by the long knife.Those gray-blue eyes that flashed past, filled with murderous intent and cold air, didn't even stay on him for a moment.Su and Leopard shook and fell off their horses.

Under the leadership of the big gray horse, Qian Wujing rode like a broken bamboo, tearing apart the broken front of the Xianbei people.The killing sound is like thunder, and the blood is soaring to the sky!

Half an hour later, Liu Hu looked towards the horizon in astonishment, and there unexpectedly appeared a cavalry, less than 2000 men, and it looked like a fierce battle.Whose family is it?Didn't Suhebu leave in that direction just now?But the team of people didn't give him time to be confused, they rushed towards the city like iron-gray turbid waves.

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

What the hell is Liu Cong doing? Can more than 1 people look down on the Jin army?What do Su and Leopard eat? !But no matter how much you hate it, it's too late.It's not too late now, and there are still many soldiers under his command attacking the city, unable to defend at all.

Before he could come up with a countermeasure, a pawn appeared on the other side, like a ghost that suddenly appeared, and rushed towards him!Attacking from both sides, even if there are not many people, it is enough to defeat his tired soldiers!

"Quick! Organize troops to fight back!" Liu Hu climbed onto the horse in a panic, and greeted him with more than a thousand soldiers around him, trying to stop this wave of offensive...

Above the top of the city, Liang Feng looked at the soldiers and horses fighting under the city, and let out a long breath of depression in his chest.

"Come on, beat the drums to help!"

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

The war drum rumbled, resounding from the top of Jinyang city, and the wilderness below the city, echoing endlessly among the mountains of corpses and sea of ​​blood!
