Jincheng Taishou Yang Xin can be said to be bitter, he knows very well that this time the trouble, but he single-handedly brought it, but the consequences are immeasurable to him. The swift and brutal arrival of the Qiang people this time was far beyond Yang Xin's expectations, the so-called vertical tiger is easy to subdue the tiger, and the Qiang people at this time are like a flood beast, which is completely beyond Yang Xin's control.

Looking down from the head of the city in Yuzhong, the Qiang people are simply like ant locusts, dense, layered, see that the scalp of people are numb, Yang Xin has been guarding the border for a long time, naturally knows the ferocity of the Qiang people, the Qiang people who came this time are not comparable to the past in terms of number or momentum, and the current Qiang people are like an irreversible torrent, which can swallow and destroy everything that blocks it in an instant.

With Yang Xin's understanding of the Qiang people, if Yuzhong is breached, there will be no tiles left, and no one will be spared, and he, as the biggest official in Jincheng, will naturally not escape death. Such a result was not what Yang Xin hoped to see, and he could only silently swallow this cup of self-brewed bitter wine, cheer up his spirit, and lead the soldiers and civilians of Jincheng into the battle to protect his family and protect the city.

What made Yang Xin feel a little relieved was that Nie Kai, the newly transferred lieutenant, could be regarded as a good general, in the face of the Qiang people's tide-like offensive, Nie Kai took the lead, led the Shu army of his headquarters, fought on the front line of the city, fought bloodily, and repelled the Qiang people's attacks again and again.

With Nie Kai charging ahead, Yang Xin didn't dare to be careless, and personally led the crowd to fight in the city. Jincheng is far away in the western cool land, and the people here are often burned and plundered by Hu Yi, and the people in the city are very clear. Once the city was besieged by these Qiang. Waiting for them. It must be a tragic end. Therefore, all the soldiers and civilians in Jincheng are united in their hearts, swearing to fight to the death, and never let the Qiang people have the opportunity to step into the city for half a step.

After three days of fierce fighting, Yang Xin has never closed his eyes, and he is worried, not only is he worried about whether Jincheng can be saved, but he is more worried that his only son Yang Hu is now no longer heard. Now there is chaos outside, and I don't know if he is alive or dead at this time.

Yang Xin was exhausted, and felt that the world was spinning, and he fell to the ground.

Nie Kaizhi thought that Yang Xin was tired and dizzy, so he hurriedly helped him up, carried him back to the house, and urgently called the doctor to treat him.

I don't know how long it took, Yang Xin woke up leisurely, only to find that he was no longer in the city, but returned to the mansion. He was slightly stunned, and then he remembered that he had lost consciousness and fainted at the head of the city. I don't know what the battle is going on in the city now. Yang Xin struggled to get up, wanting to see what was going on.

"My lord, your body has not yet healed, and the doctor has ordered you to lie on the couch and rest, and do not move lightly." The attendants beside him saw that Yang Xin wanted to get up, and hurriedly stopped him.

Yang Xin could still sleep there, and waved his hand again and again: "The official is in no trouble, and at this time, the official can still sleep there, I don't know how the battle situation in the city is?" ”

The attendant said: "Don't worry, my lord, the Qiang people have already withdrawn. ”

"Withdrawn?" Yang Xin was confused, and was full of doubts in his heart, so he got up from the couch and asked, "Why did the Qiang people withdraw from the army?" ”

The attendant said: "I heard that the reinforcements sent by Tianshui arrived, and after hearing the news, the Qiang people retreated without a fight. ”

Tianshui reinforcements? Yang Xin couldn't help but be stunned, the number of reinforcements that could make the Qiang people retreat without a fight was obviously not a few, and I didn't know how many soldiers and horses Liu Yin had sent to come, and whether it would have an impact on his plan.

He struggled to get up, although he was still a little dizzy, but he couldn't take much care of it, and ordered his subordinates to prepare their horses and prepare to go up to the castle tower to see what was going on.

But before he went out, he saw a person coming in from outside the door, his clothes and armor were torn, and his body was like blood, it was not someone else, it was his son Yang Hu. Yang Xin was overjoyed and surprised, happy that his son finally came back safely, and shocked that he was wounded all over, obviously after a lot of vicious battles, Yang Xin said in a lost voice: "Hu'er, you can be regarded as back." ”

Yang Hu's face was much colder, he waved his hand to signal the attendant to retreat, and said to Yang Xin: "Father, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid things are a little troublesome." ”

Yang Xin was stunned and said, "Didn't the Qiang people send troops?" Didn't our previous plan go well? ”

Yang Hu took a deep breath and said, "Didn't my father think that the Qiang people were much more fierce than before this time?" ”

Yang Xin frowned slightly, indeed, the scale of this Qiang attack is unprecedented, far more than the previous scale, Yang Xin was still more puzzled before, this Qiang attack is so crazy, as if there is a big grudge, according to the original plan, after Yang Hu sneaked into the Qiang land, he only needs to make a nuisance to the Qiang people, kill a few people casually, grab some things, and arouse the anger of the Qiang people, but the Qiang people's crazy attack this time is as if the Han people are their father-killing enemies, which makes Yang Xin a little puzzled, but Yang Hu never came back, Yang Xin didn't know the details, but now that he heard him say this, Yang Xin felt faintly wrong.

"How can you say that you provoked the wrong people in Qiangdi?"

Yang Hu smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, it was the child who killed the wrong person." ”

According to the original plan, Yang Hu only needed to kill a few people in the Qiang land and set fire to a few camp tents to complete the task, but Yang Hu thought about it, if he killed a few ordinary Qiang people, it seemed that it would be difficult to attract the attention of the Qiang people.

Therefore, Yang Hu has been secretly cruising in the Qiang land, waiting for an opportunity to find suitable prey. The place where the Qiang people live was originally an empty and desolate place, and it was really not easy to find the right person to do it. But Yang Hu was undoubtedly very lucky, after wandering the wasteland for a few days, he really found an opportunity to find a convoy of Qiang people.

Generally, the Qiang people ride horses, and rarely ride in cars, and those cars are luxuriously decorated, and they are not ordinary Qiang people at first glance. Yang Hu thought that his opportunity had come, as long as he could kill a few people in that convoy, he would definitely attract the attention of the Qiang people's higher-ups.

Yang Hu attacked decisively, and under the random arrows, he shot and killed a total of five or six people, including the noble lady who was riding in the carriage. Afterwards, Yang Hu learned that he had stabbed the big basket and shot the third lady of King Xiqiang's favorite.

Later, Yang Hu and his entourage were frantically pursued and killed by the Qiang cavalry, Yang Hu fought bloodily, and the whole team led by him was silent, and only he fled back to Yuzhong desperately.

"What? You actually killed Yao Kehui's third lady? Yang Xin was shocked. (To be continued.) )
