After Yang Yansi led more than 100 cavalry to kill the Jingzhou soldiers and horses at the West Gate, he rushed straight to the South Gate. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Jingzhou soldiers who were scattered at the west gate came to the south gate first, and reported to Huang Zuyu in embarrassment: "General, the Han army is coming, the Han army is coming."
Huang Zu's face sank, he didn't hear the shouts of a large number of soldiers and horses, so he didn't panic, and said coldly: "Why are you so panicked, how many soldiers and horses are coming?"
"Here are a hundred and ten horsemen, led by Yang Yansi, the general of the Great Han Tiger Guard!"
"He is so powerful, he picked the ladder in the city alone, and hundreds of our brothers were killed because of him!"
Huang Zu was furious when he heard this, and whipped a horse whip on the soldier's body, scolding: "What are the hundred and ten horsemen afraid of, they are confusing the hearts of the army, I will not forgive them!"
The horsewhip swept over, and the platoon of soldiers in front of him was unspeakably miserable, Huang Zu was originally from a family, so he naturally would not pity this group of lowly soldiers. Huang Zu was angry with this group of soldiers, and the sound of horses' hooves came from the west, and from a distance, Yang Yansi rode a fiery red war horse to take the lead, followed by about one hundred and ten Han cavalry.
Huang Zu's heart was cold, and he shouted: "Yang Yansi is just a horseman, and a hundred and ten horsemen dare to rush into battle, Wen Ping, give me a formation to meet the enemy!"
"No!" Wen Ping attacked the city several times, and was forced to retreat, and at this time he happened to be under the city. Huang Zu led it, and Wen Ping immediately turned over and waved his spear and said, "You come with me!"
Wen Ping immediately greeted him with a group of soldiers and horses, but the Jingzhou soldiers and horses formed a formation. In front were shieldmen, in the back were pikemen, and in the back were archers.
Wen Ping stood in front of the formation, looked at Yang Yansi rushing towards him, and immediately pointed his spear and ordered: "Release the arrow!"
Yang Yansi snorted coldly when he saw this, and between the swing of the tiger-headed black gold spear in his hand, the arrows rained down one after another, and the horse rushed to the front of the formation, and Wen Ping had to fight with Yang Yansi with a spear.
"The system has detected that Yang Yansi is fighting with Wenpin, Yang Yansi's current force is 103, Wenpin's force is 94, the commander is 89, the intelligence is 71, and the politics is 59!"
Wen Ping urged him to immediately go forward to engage Yang Yansi, and Yang Yansi picked up the spear in his hand with a shot in his hand. The second shot came to stab Wen Ping's head, Wen Ping hurriedly lowered his head, only to feel a cool breeze blowing on his head, and when he touched his hand, the steel helmet was picked up by Yang Yansi.
Wen Ping was shocked where he dared to confront Yang Yansi, and hurriedly pulled out his horse and fled, the soldiers behind him hurriedly made way of a road, Yang Yansi wanted to chase, and the road was instantly closed by the soldiers. The pikemen behind the shield stood tall one by one, and behind them, the archers kept shooting arrows at Yang Yansi.
Yang Yansi looked at the yellow-character banner in the Chinese army while blocking the arrows, and said secretly: "It seems that the main general of Jingzhou in this battle is Huang Zu, as long as you kill him, the siege of Nanxiang will be solved!"
Thinking of this, Yang Yansi roared angrily, and the red dragon horse under his crotch jumped up, directly crossing the formation formed by the pikemen, and leaping into the archers. The archers did not dare to fight, and they retreated one after another, and Yang Yansi rode straight towards the Chinese army Huangzu.
This time, the Jingzhou soldiers sent 23,000 troops, but the 3,000 former army of Wen Ping was ambushed by Liu Yubu, and most of them were killed and wounded, and yesterday they attacked the city with all their might, with nearly 2,000 dead and wounded, and today they attacked the city for half a day, and there were also many casualties, and there were only 17,800 Jingzhou soldiers left. Most of the main forces at the south gate are still under siege, and Huang Zu has only two or three thousand soldiers and horses around him. Seeing that Wen Ping was not Yang Yansi's enemy, Huang Zu no longer had the confidence, and saw that Yang Yansi came by himself in the middle of the horse, and his own soldiers and horses passed along the way, and it was difficult to resist at all, so he hurriedly ordered Ming Jin to collect his troops and gather soldiers and horses to protect himself.
Above the head of Nanxiang City, Liu Yu, looking at Yang Yansi, who was fighting with horses under the city and rushing straight towards Huang Zu, gasped and said, "Who is that, so brave?"
Yang Yansi relieved the danger of the West Gate, and Fu Youde said with a happy face from the West Gate: "That's Yang Yansi, the Tiger Guard General next to the Son of Heaven, General Yang also brought 8,000 soldiers and horses on this trip, and is entering the city from the North Gate!"
Liu Yu said happily: "This is really good, but the soldiers and horses of the North Gate are entering the city, but they need to guard against the surprise attack of the Jingzhou soldiers!"
Fu Youde looked at the city and said: "General Yang alone killed the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, but Huang Zuming Jin collected his troops, and the siege soldiers and horses surrounded him one after another, I am worried that General Yang will fall into the army, so I will go down to support him!"
Yang Yansi alone rushed to kill under the south gate, wanting to kill Huang Zu, but there were many soldiers and horses, and in the end, the Jingzhou soldiers and horses gradually surrounded him, and Yang Yansi was difficult to kill out of the chaotic army for a while. Huang Zu laughed when he saw it: "What kind of Tiger Guard general, he is a reckless man at all, kill him for me, as long as you kill him, are you afraid that you won't be able to take Nanxiang?"
Yang Yansi rode alone among the Jingzhou soldiers and horses to rush back and forth, and the cavalry that followed Yang Yansi did not dare to rush into the formation, but when the Jingzhou soldiers who were besieging the city gradually surrounded, Yang Yansi was also a little unbearable. Although Na Wenpin was not Yang Yansi's enemy and did not dare to fight with Yang Yansi, he knew the art of war quite well, and hid behind the soldiers and commanded the soldiers to besiege and kill Yang Yansi, but Yang Yansi was tired of coping.
Yang Yansi shook his spirits and wanted to fight his way out of the encirclement, when suddenly a loud shout came from the west: "General Yang, don't panic, Fu Youde is coming to help you!"
"You guys come with me to rescue General Yang!" Fu Youde rode alone, and shouted when he saw more than a hundred cavalry on the periphery.
These cavalrymen are not greedy for life and afraid of death, but know that Yang Yansi values love and righteousness, if they rush in, Yang Yansi will definitely rescue them, so it has become a burden to Yang Yansi. Now that Fu Youde has arrived, everyone sees that Fu Youde is burly and heroic, and he must be a strong martial artist. Fu Youde took the lead, and the more than 100 cavalry did not hesitate to follow Fu Youde to rush in.
Fu Youde led more than 100 cavalry into the battle, and the Jingzhou soldiers suddenly turned on their backs, and they were killed by Fu Youde again. Answering Yang Yansi, the two of them also successfully broke through with more than 100 cavalry. Fu Youde said to Yang Yansi: "The eight thousand army should have entered the city at this time, and there are soldiers and horses at the west gate to respond, let's enter the city from the west gate."
"Good!" Yang Yansi nodded in agreement, and the cavalry rushed to the west gate.
"Chase me, they will definitely enter the city, let's take advantage of the situation and enter Nanxiang!" Huang Zu hurriedly ordered the soldiers and horses to pursue.
Under the west gate, the city gate opened, and the general of the Nanxiang city guard waited under the city to answer. Yang Yansi rushed to the horse, and the guard shouted: "General, enter the city quickly!"
"You guys go in first!" Yang Yansi swung his horse and retreated to the city gate, but let the cavalry enter the city, and Fu Youde also retreated to the side when he saw this. After the cavalry entered the city, they saw the Jingzhou soldiers roaring from a distance. Yang Yansi and Fu Youde both pulled their horses into the city, and the Jingzhou soldiers and horses rushed to the city, and the city gate was closed. On the top of the city, more than 8,000 soldiers and horses brought by Yang Yansi had already received bows and arrows to the west gate to defend, and put arrows at the Jingzhou soldiers under the city.
The Jingzhou soldiers were caught off guard, they were killed and injured by arrows, and they had no choice but to retreat, Huang Zu and Wen Ping looked at the thousands of soldiers standing at the head of the West Gate City, one by one, they were extremely skilled in shooting bows and arrows, but they were elite soldiers.
Huang Zu's face was pale: "The Han army came to reinforcements, and when they entered the city, it was a good time for us to take the opportunity to attack, and we didn't miss this great opportunity when they were stopped by Yang Yansi, a reckless man."
"Hey, it's all because I attacked the city with all my might, and I didn't order the scouts to defend it!" Wen Ping said regretfully.
Huang Zu's face was gloomy, he waved his hand and pulled his horse back to the south gate, Wen Ping hurriedly caught up, and said in a deep voice: "This Yang Yansi is the Tiger Guard General next to the Son of Heaven, it can be said that he will not leave an inch, and now it is actually Yang Yansi who led the troops to help Nanxiang, could it be that this Son of Heaven has already led Chang'an?"
Huang Zu muttered: "So what, although Chang'an has 100,000 soldiers and horses, most of them are defending Longxi, and the area around the valley is only 30,000 soldiers. And we still have 15,000 soldiers and horses, and Liu Pangongzi will be able to lead an army of 20,000 to help in a few days! We still have an advantage in terms of troops. As long as we delay here, the soldiers and horses will be weak in the spring, and the soldiers and horses will be defeated, and then the plan of the Son of Heaven to attack Nanyang will end without a problem. ”
Wen Ping nodded when he heard this, and now he has torn his face with the Son of Heaven, and there is only one way to go to the dark. Delaying the reinforcements of the Son of Heaven here is also a way to defeat the Han army.
Nanxiang came with reinforcements, Huang Zu can no longer attack the city, a thousand soldiers and horses to guard Nanxiang, but it has not been able to attack for a long time, and now there are thousands more, wanting to capture Nanxiang is tantamount to a fool's dream. So Huang Zu's soldiers and horses retreated five miles and set up camp on a flat plateau. Confronted Nanxiang City, just waiting for Liu Pan to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to come, just cut off the Han army's grain route here and drag the Han army's reinforcements.
Yang Yansi led the troops into Nanxiang, and thanked Fu Youde: "Thank you to the heroes for breaking the siege before, otherwise a certain family will have to pay a lot of price if they want to break out of the siege."
"It's just icing on the cake, before you single-handedly overturned the Jingzhou soldiers' ladder at the West Gate and killed hundreds of thieves, it really makes people's blood boil." Fu Youde returned the salute.
"Heroic martial arts are also extraordinary, and I haven't asked for the hero's name yet!"
The guard general hurriedly introduced: "This is Fu Youde, and there is another named Liu Yu, the two of them ......."
The guard general told Yang Yansi about the affairs of Fu Youde and Liu Yu, Yang Yansi was in awe when he heard this, and bowed to Liu Yu and Fu Youde: "The two are loyal and brave, and they almost lost their lives for the birth and death of my Han, which really makes Yang admire!"
"Don't dare, don't dare!" The two didn't dare to say anything.
Yang Yansi said: "The two of them are not only strong in martial arts, but also loyal to my Han Dynasty, after this battle, I recommend the two to Your Majesty."
Fu Youde and Liu Yu were overjoyed and said, "Thank you, General!"
But the guard general was not happy at this time, and asked Yang Yansi: "General Yang, I don't know when the follow-up soldiers and horses will arrive?" Outside the Jingzhou thief garrison, I can't deliver grain and grass to General Chang, and General Chang may not be able to support it for a few days. ”
Yang Yansi said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, I sent 10,000 troops to guard Nanxiang at the behest of His Majesty to guard against the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou, and just when Wuguan was resting, I received your message for help." Wei commanded the envoy to be the military division of the army, when he was in Wuguan, the two of us divided the troops, I led 8,000 troops to support Nanxiang, and Lord Wei led 2,000 troops, and the underwater champion of Zhejiang transported grain and grass to General Chang! ”
The guard general was overjoyed and said: "The fruit of Xia Zhejiang can really be used as a second grain road?" In this way, the siege of General Chang was relieved, and the Jingzhou soldiers were stationed here, and we had nearly 10,000 people, and the grain and grass in the city could last for a month, and their plan to cut off the grain road could be said to be useless. ”
