Chapter 455: Saving People Matters

Yanghu has been staring at the city below, shouting and killing in the distance, and the banners of the Shu army can be seen from afar.

Cao Liang ordered the city gates to be closed, and all the Wei troops ascended to the top of the city, preparing to meet the Shu army.

Yanghu hurriedly said: "My father-in-law hasn't come back yet, do you want to wait any longer?" ”

Cao Liang said in a deep voice: "I can't wait any longer, the Shu army will be here soon, and if the city gate is not closed, it is likely that the Shu army will seize the city." Uncle, life and death are fateful, so that Mount Tai may have an accident, mourn! ”

The Shu army brigade was about to be killed, and the chances of Xiahou Ba's survival were already very small, so Cao Liang had no choice but to comfort Yanghu in this way.

Yanghu also knew that the current situation was urgent, but he still couldn't let go of his feelings and bowed his head silently.

At this moment, a sharp-eyed Wei soldier pointed to the outside of the city and said to Yanghu: "Yang joins the army, isn't that General Xiahou?" ”

Yanghu hurriedly looked down, and sure enough, outside the city gate, he saw more than a dozen horsemen, all of whom were wearing the military uniforms of the Wei army, and one of them was wearing black armor, wasn't it Xiahou Ba?

Yanghu was overjoyed, and was about to shout for Xiahou Ba to enter the city quickly, but saw Xiahou Ba's body shaking on the horse, and finally couldn't support it and fell off the horse.

The people around Xiahouba hurriedly jumped off the horse and helped Xiahouba up from the ground, but at this moment Xiahouba was already unconscious.

The Shu army chasing soldiers behind him had approached a distance of hundreds of steps, and seeing that the gate of the Golden Siege was not closed, and there was still a crack in the door, the Shu army was excited, and rushed all the way towards the city gate, trying to snatch the city gate.

Yanghu shouted: "I'm going to save people!" Then he turned and ran down the city, and jumped down the steps after taking three steps and doing two.

Cao Liang sighed lightly, since Xiahou Ba had already arrived outside the city, it was impossible for him to ignore it anyway, not to mention that Xiahou Ba was Yanghu's father-in-law, so even if the situation was critical, he had to rescue people first.

Yang Hu had already gone down to save people, Cao Liang immediately ordered the archers to prepare, once the Shu army entered the range of the bow and arrow, he immediately opened the bow and released the arrow to block the Shu army trying to attack the city.

Yanghu rushed out of the city gate almost all the way, and Xiahou Ba was not far from the city gate, he quickly rushed to the front, and eagerly: "Father-in-lawβ€”β€”"

Xiahou Ba had just been helped up by the deputy general beside him, still in a coma, but there was still breath, and the Shu army was about to rush to the front, at this time, if Xiahou Ba was helped back to the war horse, it was too late, Yang Hu didn't care about anything else, put Xiahou Ba on his back, and ran towards the city.

You must know that Xiahou Ba is a tall and sturdy person, coupled with a body of armor, the weight is not light, Yanghu didn't think about it at all, he gritted his teeth and ran back to the city in one breath.

The Wei soldiers who followed Yanghu out of the city and Xiahou Ba's entourage were armed with knives and guns to protect the left and right sides, guarding against the Shu soldiers who were almost about to pounce.

The Shu army had already chased Xiahouba and his party, how could they easily let them enter the city, and desperately chased and killed them.

Cao Liang immediately ordered the arrow to be released, and the arrow flew over the heads of Yanghu and the others, and just hit the Shu soldiers who rushed to the front, and the Shu soldiers who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground one after another.

This undoubtedly bought them a lot of time, Yanghu was so tired that he was panting like a cow, but he still gritted his teeth and rushed into the city gate, and other Wei soldiers also entered the city one after another.

The Wei soldiers guarding the gate hurriedly closed the city gate, and the Shu soldiers who arrived later could only sigh at the door.

As soon as he entered the city gate, Yanghu seemed to be prostration, and he couldn't take half a step anymore, he gently put Xiahouba down, and Xiahouba also woke up at this time, but his mind was dizzy, and he was very puzzled when he saw Yanghu: "Uncle...... Why are you here? ”

Seeing Xiahou Ba wake up, Yanghu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Father-in-law, you have arrived in the Golden Siege, and you don't have to worry about the pursuit of the Shu army anymore." ”

Seeing that Xiahou Ba's body was still very weak, Yanghu ordered his soldiers to help him go to the camp to rest, and he immediately went to the city to assist Cao Liang to defend the city.

After all, the pursuers of the Shu army were menacing, and if they took advantage of the situation to attack the city, the Wei army would have to fight.

However, it is obvious that the Shu army is not ready to attack the city, they chased all the way, lightly armed, naturally did not bring siege equipment, before desperately impacting, is to see that the gate of the Golden Siege has not been closed, want to rush up to snatch the city gate, now the city gate has been closed, and the city arrows are raining, they can only retreat to a place of one stone, waiting for the follow-up army to arrive.

Jiang Wei quickly rushed to the city of Golden Siege.

In fact, Jiang Wei chased Xiahouba all the way from the watershed, in order to annihilate the Wei army as much as possible, Jiang Wei chased all the way, Xiahouba retreated day and night, Jiang Wei pursued day and night, no matter how fast Xiahouba ran, Jiang Wei always bit behind him and did not let go at all.

On this way, Jiang Wei didn't know how many Wei soldiers he had killed, but almost none of the Wei soldiers who stayed behind and broke off had escaped the pursuit of the Shu army, and there were corpses all over the road for hundreds of miles.

However, he has not been able to capture the big fish of Xiahou Ba, which still makes Jiang Wei a little regretful, let alone let Cao Shuang escape.

The biggest reason for the failure to encircle and annihilate the Wei army was that the Golden Siege was not able to hold it, and the Shu army was also slightly flawed in addition to the great victory, but Liu Yin, the defender of the Golden Siege, had already sacrificed his life for the country, so no one had to bear this responsibility anymore, and Jiang Wei could only sigh secretly.

Chased to the golden siege, the battle of Hanzhong is also the end of the curtain, the main force of the Wei army has fled east to Weixing County, Jiang Wei whip is out of reach, the golden siege because of the small city, can not accommodate many soldiers and horses, Jiang Wei is already interested in the siege.

After all, Jiang Wei knows better than anyone else about the defensive ability of the Golden Siege, if the Shu army wants to attack, it will definitely pay a lot of casualties, even if the Golden Siege is taken, the number of enemies destroyed is not worth the number of casualties, Jiang Wei is definitely unwilling to do this kind of lose-lose thing.

In this battle, the Shu army won a complete victory, because the attack on the Golden Siege and the heavy casualties were paid, which seemed to be a bit of a snake.

No sensible general would ever do such a thankless errand again.

Jiang Wei glanced at Huang Jinwei a few times, waved his big hand, and ordered in a loud voice: "Ming Jin retreats his troops and retreats thirty miles." ”

Zhao Guang said a little unwillingly: "The Golden Siege is the territory of my Ji Han, how can I retreat if I don't recapture it?" ”

Jiang Wei smiled slightly: "The golden siege is not possible, and once our army retreats, it will naturally be at your fingertips." ”
