The Yanmen of Zhousheng is like the old days without end of spring
Chapter 35 Princess Nanchen
For the common people, wars always come without warning.
The timing of the siege of Kerelun's troops was almost the same as Guo Zuo's prediction, which was two hours after the spies got the news that the last army was transferred away.
That is now.
Less than a moment after the scouts reported that the outpost of the Kherlen army was less than ten miles away from the city gate, Guo Zuo, who was standing on the city gate, saw the dust rolling up from the ground in the distance.
He ordered very calmly, "Archers, prepare."
The prairie cavalry came whistling, looked down and quickly engulfed the withered yellow grass like black ink, and the ground under the horse's hooves was trembling.
Cold sweat broke out on Guo Zuo's forehead, and he pressed his hands tightly on the city wall, bloodstains appeared from the bricks, "Didn't it mean that Kerelen only had less than [-] troops!"
"Master Guo, when the poor monk first came to His Highness's army, he heard a word from His Highness, and today I want to share my encouragement with Lord Guo." Xiao Yan stood beside Guo Zuo, looking at the tens of thousands of cavalry who were about to arrive at the city. Said unhurriedly.
"It's Guo Zuo who is incompetent, listen to His Highness's instruction!" Guo Zuo turned around and bowed deeply towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan looked at Guo Zuo, Zhou Shengchen was right, but Guo Zuo was a malleable talent, he was neither arrogant nor discouraged, he knew everything in his mind, and he knew that his plan had gone wrong due to the inaccurate information he had, so he seemed to be mocking Xiao Yan The tone of voice, but not angry, but humbly asking for advice.
"You can't trust the enemy's words," Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to help Guo Zuo up, "Master Guo, please stand up, I am a small military adviser, I can't be such a big gift."
"Fengyang King is too modest." Guo Zuo stood up as soon as he bowed, "Now the local military strength exceeds my estimate by three times, so we can't defend the city according to the original plan. We must go out of the city to meet the enemy, otherwise the city gate will really be captured by the enemy. The army broke through."
"No, wait a little longer." Xiao Yan stopped Guo Zuo.
Guo Zuo twitched his eyebrows in shock, "King Fengyang, the entire army in the city is less than [-], and the army of Nanchen King is accompanied by only a thousand riders. At this time, we can go out of the city to meet the enemy, and maybe we can fight! If the army invades the city, The people are in trouble, and they are afraid that they will not be able to defend!"
"Of course I want to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but..." Xiao Yan raised his eyes and saw that the dust flying all over the sky was already ten feet away, "It is His Highness's military order to wait until the entire army of Kereren's army has passed through Yanshui."
Guo Zuo's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice, "Yes."
Zhou Shengchen's military order gave him inexplicable confidence.
The tail end of Kereren's army stepped across the Yanshui River, and the forward was already approaching the city gate.
Hearing a buzzing sound, a rain of arrows suddenly flew out from the top of the city wall, coming towards him with the momentum of breaking bamboo, passing through him.
There were screams one after another, and the front of the team suddenly fell to the ground, with corpses everywhere.
"Breaking the city gate—" the leading general waved the scimitar in his hand, "Chong——"
Another rain of arrows fell, but there were many enemy troops, many casualties, and there were still a few cavalrymen who arrived at the city gate, took a ladder, and crashed into the city gate.
Guo Zuo stood on the city wall, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.
Enemy soldiers had already climbed up on the human ladder, but were cut down by the defenders on the city wall, but more people were climbing up.
He heard someone from the Kerelun tribe yelling wildly, "There are only three thousand troops in the city! Brothers, break through the city and enter! The food and grass in the city are ours—"
There was a burst of shouts from among the enemy troops, and morale soared.
At this moment, I suddenly heard an angry "open the city gate—" at the city gate under my feet. The next moment, the city gate opened wide, and the killing sound shook the sky. Blood mist bloomed in Guo Zuo's eyes, wherever the cavalry went, stumped limbs and broken arms flew, and screams could be heard endlessly.
The enemy had no time to react, and the battle turned into a one-sided crush in an instant. Behind the three thousand cavalry were tens of thousands of defenders, like a black sharp blade, where blood flowed like a river.
"It's been tricked!" The leader reacted, gritted his teeth, "Brothers, if we can't get enough food, we will also have trouble getting through this winter. Fight!"
"Fight--"
The enemy army, which had reached a desperate situation, was determined to break the boat and did not withdraw. After a simple adjustment, it began to fight head-on with the defenders.
The number of Yanmen defenders is superior, but it is not an absolute advantage, especially in the face of such a group of vicious Xiongnu soldiers.
Guo Zuo was holding on to the blue bricks of the city wall with both hands, and half of his body was almost sticking out of the wall, watching the soldiers fighting on the ground nervously. He got a military order from Zhou Shengchen and could not go out of the city to fight together. He needed to observe the situation and guard Close the city gate to ensure the safety of the people.
He saw a black horse riding on the battlefield, and the figure he had been familiar with for the past few days——Zhou Shengchen, wearing a crow-blue cloak, holding a green sword in his hand, tossing and turning in the enemy's formation, fighting a hundred enemies with one enemy. , Bravely crowned the three armies.
A Hun soldier held a scimitar and came towards Zhou Shengchen's horse.Zhou Shengchen pulled the reins abruptly, the horse neighed and raised its front hooves, trampling the Hun soldier on its chest.
Zhou Shengchen got off his horse and swung his sword to kill the Hun soldiers who were rushing to him. Warm blood splashed on his face.
"Your Highness, more than half of the enemy troops were killed or injured, and no reinforcements were seen, so these people should be the only ones." Xiao Yan said while fighting to Zhou Shengchen's side, killing the enemy.
"Okay, order Fengqiao!" Zhou Shengchen ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Xiao Yan said, putting a bone whistle in his mouth.
The high-pitched bone whistle pierced the sky, and the sound spread far away.
Guo Zuo, who was standing on the city wall, opened his eyes wider and wider. He saw a large army advancing rapidly in the distance. The speed was so fast and there were so many people, it seemed that they had already ambushed by the Yanshui River!
With just one glance, Guo Zuo could tell that it was not the Xiongnu army, but the reinforcements!Where did the reinforcements come so fast!
When he got close, Guo Zuo blinked his eyes in disbelief. The man who led the soldiers galloped his horse, his black hair was blowing in the wind, and his face was stern and resolute.
"General Feng!" Guo Zuo exclaimed.
Guo Zuo was shocked, and the Xiongnu soldiers were even more panicked.
Feng Qiao led [-] cavalry towards the hot spot in the formation, and rushed the Xiongnu soldiers to pieces. The situation of the battle was reversed in an instant, and the Kherlen's troops lost their helmets and armor almost instantly, and they were defeated.
"Retreat——" the leader of the Xiongnu soldiers shouted hoarsely, trying to retreat under the cover of the surrounding soldiers, and suddenly saw a man coming in front of him with a sword, slashing and killing the soldiers who were intercepting on the left and right, and flew up, facing him with a large cloak Come.
bang——
A firm kick was kicked in the chest, the leader flew up and landed heavily on the ground, his throat tightened, and he was severely trampled by a foot. Just as he was about to struggle, he felt a chill on the tip of his nose , a sword hung straight above the tip of his nose in front of him, and the blood on the sword fell drop by drop onto his face.
In his eyes, he could only see the god-like figure standing under the blue sky he was looking up at.
The man didn't look at him, but said loudly: "The leader of the thieves has been captured! The remnants surrender to avoid death!"
"You... who are you..." the leader asked in a hoarse voice. He felt that the person looked a bit like the rumors, but he couldn't believe it.
The god-like figure looked down at him that day, but did not answer.
Feng Qiao rode over with a military flag in her hand, and the leader saw the crow-blue military flag, his eyes darkened, and his voice trembled: "You are... Zhou Shengchen!"
Zhou Shengchen said: "Exactly."
"It's not wrong to die at your hands." The leader spat out the blood from his mouth fiercely.
Zhou Shengchen moved his foot away and watched him stand up slowly from the ground.
"All of you have surrendered, except you." Zhou Shengchen pointed to the few remaining Hun soldiers kneeling on the ground around him.
"Bah, something without bones." The leader tightened the scimitar in his hand, and suddenly rushed towards Zhou Shengchen, hissing loudly: "I, Kelulun, will never surrender—"
Feng Qiao's eyelids twitched, although she knew that her master's martial arts skills would not be hurt, she was unavoidably intimidated by this desperate attitude, and her expression changed.
Zhou Shengchen was about to swing his sword to kill the leader, when he suddenly heard the sound of piercing through the air.
call out--
A feathered arrow came through the wind, and when the chest was nailed to the leader of Kerelen, the burly body shook and fell on his back with a thud.
Zhou Shengchen looked at the feathered arrow, the white eagle feathers were particularly eye-catching amidst the blood.
"White Eagle Feather!" Feng Qiao looked at the arrow in surprise.
Zhou Shengchen turned his head, looked back at the woman above the city gate who was still holding a bow, and smiled brilliantly.
Zhou Shengchen's smile fell into Mei Shiyi's eyes, that smile ironed her frantically beating heart, she also showed a slightly stiff smile, retracted her bow, her hands under her wide sleeves kept trembling...
"Who is that?" The defenders asked each other curiously.
"That is our concubine." The cavalry of the royal army replied proudly, "It is the concubine Nanchen who reinforced Yongcheng with two thousand soldiers and resisted the invasion of the army!"
The timing of the siege of Kerelun's troops was almost the same as Guo Zuo's prediction, which was two hours after the spies got the news that the last army was transferred away.
That is now.
Less than a moment after the scouts reported that the outpost of the Kherlen army was less than ten miles away from the city gate, Guo Zuo, who was standing on the city gate, saw the dust rolling up from the ground in the distance.
