In the direction of Xiabiancheng, after many days of attacking and defending the city, the three most elite forces in Qiuchi all suffered great losses, and the officers and men of the three armies were all exhausted.

But in general, Yang Guo and Yang Jun's rebellious army had the upper hand, while the Imperial Forest Army defending the city was in an increasingly difficult situation, and the city could be lost at any time.

In the Qiu Chi Mansion, Yang Songnu seemed a little anxious, and he sent his henchmen to the direction of the East Gate every day to observe, and told his henchmen that as long as they found that reinforcements had arrived, they would report to him immediately.

But now a few days have passed, and most of the Imperial Forest Army under his control has suffered casualties, and the reinforcements can't even see half a shadow, which makes his heart sink completely.

He originally hoped that Huang Fu Ming could persuade the Jin generals to bring reinforcements, but the facts told him that this idea was too wishful thinking, and sometimes, he even felt that this Huang Fu Ming was of unknown origin and was likely to deliberately deceive himself.

is as anxious as Yang Songnu, as well as his henchman Liang Shiwang and others, these people and Yang Songnu are grasshoppers on a rope, as long as the city is broken, they all have to accompany Yang Songnu to be executed.

"Cousin, more than half of our army has suffered casualties, but the reinforcements have not yet arrived, if it goes on like this, Xiafen City will be lost soon, think of a way!" King Liang looked at Yang Songnu and said anxiously.

Yang Songnu frowned, and said helplessly: "The reinforcements have been arriving for a long time, what can I do, I can only continue to wait." ”

Liang Shiwang was in a hurry, hugged his fists and said: "Cousin, the city really can't be defended for long, let's think about retreating earlier!" lest after the fall of the city, it will end up with five horses and corpses. ”

Listen to the five horses split the corpse. Yang Songnu shuddered involuntarily, paused, and said softly: "King Shi, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't beat around the bush." ”

Seeing this, King Liang Shiwang stepped forward and said softly: "Cousin, as the saying goes, thirty-six plans are the best plan, if the city really can't be defended, we can't sit still." Try your best to think of a way out that you can survive. ”

"Hmm. Let's move on. Yang Songnu continued to ask.

King Liang Shiwang continued: "Cousin, it is better for us to prepare all kinds of soft first, so that we can escape from the city as soon as it falls. Go to a place where you can hide. So. We may have a chance to make a comeback. ”

Yang Songnu listened to it and felt that there was some truth, although he gave up the city. It will bring his prestige to the ground, but in order to save his life, he can't care so much.

"King Shi, then in your opinion, where should we retreat?" Yang Songnu asked.

King Liang Shiwang hugged his fists and said: "Now, Wudu County is afraid that it will not be able to stay any longer, and there are only two directions for us to retreat, Yinping County in the south, or Liangzhou in the east." ”

Yang Songnu thought for a moment and said softly: "Liangzhou is a good place, but if we lose Xiabi City, and there are not many men and horses left under our command, will the Jin army still take us in?" ”

"Cousin, after all, the generals of the Jin army have promised us first, with the current situation, we can only better avoid trouble by going to Liangzhou!" Liang Shiwang said.

Hearing this, Yang Songnu nodded, and said softly: "Okay! You go and prepare at once, and once the city is broken, we will leave the east gate and run in the direction of Liangzhou. ”

"Yes, cousin, King Shi will go and prepare." King Liang Shi answered, and turned to prepare the fine soft and horses needed for the retreat.

In the direction of the north gate, the army under the command of Yang Guo once again launched a fierce attack, and Yang An, who was in charge of commanding the soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, personally raised his shield and killed the city.

At this moment, Yang An has already made up his mind that he must capture the city and capture Yang Songnu alive in this attack.

Seeing that Yang An personally raised his shield to kill the city, all the soldiers under his command were greatly demoralized, the shield soldiers scrambled to climb the ladder first, and the crossbowmen shot with all their strength to cover Yang An, who was personally attacking the city.

Yang An climbed to the top of the ladder and slashed the two Imperial Forest Army soldiers on the city head in succession, and then jumped on the city head, and brandished the weapon in his hand to kill in the direction of the city gate tower.

The soldiers behind continued to climb from Yang An to the position of the head of the city, climbed the city wall one after another, and followed Yang An, killing in the direction where the generals of the Royal Forest Army were.

The generals of the Royal Forest Army, who were commanding the soldiers under his command to support him, did not wait for the reinforcements led by Yang Songnu himself, but waited for Yang An, who had climbed to the top of the city, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Soldiers, stop the enemy generals for me, up." The general of the Imperial Forest Army shouted loudly, and asked the personal soldiers beside him to kill Yang An and the others.

"Kill ......" more than a dozen Royal Forest Army soldiers shouted and killed Yang An, who was walking slowly.

Yang An was not afraid at all, and rushed forward with his weapon.

A burst of crackling weapons intersected, and Yang An killed all the dozen or so Royal Forest Army soldiers who rushed over with one enemy and ten, and continued to move forward.

The general of the Royal Forest Army was taken aback, and hurriedly retreated in fright, Yang An rushed forward, and within a few rounds, he raised his sword and killed the general of the Royal Forest Army in front of him.

Yang An cut off the head of the general of the Imperial Forest Army, raised it high, and shouted: "The rebel general has been beheaded, those who surrender will not die, and those who surrender will not die." ”

The soldiers of the Royal Forest Army, who were resisting, saw that the lord was about to be killed, and the enemy army attacked the city again, and immediately made a mess, some threw away their weapons and surrendered to Yang An, and some lost their armor and fled in the direction of the city.

Seeing the surrender of the Imperial Forest Army guarding the north gate, and the rout of the rout, Yang An'an was greatly happy, and ordered loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to the city and capture Yang Songnu alive." After speaking, he quickly walked in the direction of Qiu Chi Mansion to kill.

After the city gate of the north gate of "Killing ......" was opened, thousands of troops outside the city poured into Xiafen City, and immediately followed Yang An and killed Qiu Chi Gong's mansion.

At this moment, in the Qiu Chi Mansion, King Liang Shi had prepared enough fine and soft horses and went to report to Yang Songnu.

"Cousin, a hundred war horses and all kinds of soft are ready." Liang Shiwang reported softly.

Yang Songnu nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"My lord, it's not good, the north gate has been broken by the rebels, and thousands of rebels have already killed here." At this moment, the news of the loss of the north gate reached Yang Songnu's ears.

Yang Songnu was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that the army of Yang State would break through the city so quickly, and after slowing down for a while, he hurriedly ordered: "King Shi, quickly lead the horse, let's leave here immediately." ”

When King Liang Shi heard this, he was also shocked, and hurriedly said: "Cousin, the war horse and the pro-soldier team are in the backyard, let's go quickly!" ”

Yang Songnu nodded and walked towards the backyard with King Liang Shi.

At this moment, in the backyard, a hundred henchmen and soldiers had already stepped on their horses, and all kinds of soft were also carried on the backs of the soldiers.

Yang Songnu and King Liang Shiwang each stepped on their horses, and then immediately led a hundred soldiers to run in the direction of the east gate.

Yang An led thousands of soldiers to arrive at the Qiuchi Mansion as quickly as possible, and immediately surrounded the mansion and rushed in with five hundred soldiers.

"General, there is no one in the house, all the rooms are empty." A subordinate general reported loudly.

Yang An walked to the main hall, touched the tea that was still warm, and said loudly: "The tea is still hot, Yang Songnu, the dog thief, must not have gone far." ”

"Newspaper, General, there are a lot of horseshoe prints in the backyard." A soldier reported.

When Yang An heard this, he said: "Yang Songnu must have run away, immediately prepare five hundred cavalry, and the general must catch up with him." ”

Hearing the order, the general went to collect the cavalry, while Yang An quickly walked to the backyard of the Qiuchi Mansion, and from the direction of the horseshoe print, he judged that Yang Songnu and his party had fled in the direction of the east gate.

"General, some people saw that Yang Songnu and his party fled in the direction of the east gate." A soldier came to report.

Yang An smiled at the corner of his mouth and said softly: "Sure enough, as the general expected, Yang Songnu, the dog thief, ran away from the east gate, what about the cavalry?" Why not ready. ”

It didn't take long for the general to lead five hundred cavalry to appear outside the back door of Qiu Chi Gong's mansion, and Yang An quickly stepped on his war horse and led five hundred cavalry to chase in the direction of the east gate.

In the direction of the east gate of Xiabian City, Yang Songnu led a hundred henchmen cavalry to slowly approach, and King Liang Shiwang took the lead, first rushed to the city gate, and shouted: "The lord has an order, open the city gate, open the city gate quickly." ”

The soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army at the east gate did not understand what was happening, and hurriedly opened the city gate according to the order of King Liang Shi.

When Yang Songnu arrived at the city gate, the city gate was just completely opened, and Yang Songnu did not slow down and immediately rushed out.

After Yang Songnu and his entourage all rushed out of the east gate, the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army guarding the city gate just wanted to close the city gate, but saw more cavalry coming from the direction of the east gate.

The soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, who were surprised, immediately understood the reason why Yang Songnu hurriedly left the city, it turned out that the city was broken by the rebel army.

The lords fled, and the soldiers guarding the city gate did not want to die in vain, so they immediately abandoned the city gate and fled in all directions.

Yang An led 500 cavalry, and without any obstruction, he rode out of Xiaban City and chased in the direction of Yang Songnu's escape.

The distance between the two sides was several miles away, and Yang An, who was chasing after him, could only see a figure as big as a small black dot in front of him, and the billowing smoke and dust kicked off by the war horse.

Yang Songnu and his entourage fled in front, and Yang An led five hundred cavalry to chase in the rear, and the two sides ran all the way in the direction of Liangzhou.

In the direction of Xiabiancheng, since the army under Yang Guo broke through the north gate, it didn't take long for the army under Yang Jun to break through the direction of the west gate.

As the chief general of the Chinese army, Yang Shi personally led thousands of men and horses to rush into the city and rushed towards the Qiu Chi Mansion.

Outside the main gate of Qiu Chi Gong's mansion, Yang Shi met Yang Guo, who had just arrived here, and congratulated Yang Guo with him.

In order to celebrate the capture of Xia Fen City by the coalition forces of the two sides, Yang Guo wanted to hold a banquet in the Qiu Chi Mansion, and strongly invited Yang Jun and his son to participate. (To be continued......)
