"Commander, we have used up the logs and stones." After the Liao army attacked for a quarter of an hour, the remaining logs and stones on the city were used up. This shows that the Liao army's offensive was rapid and violent. The Liao army under Brother Yelvxiu is considered an elite force, and cannot be compared to the people from various tribes who attacked the city before.
"Order, Yang Gui, come out of the city to meet the attack." Yang Yanzhao gritted his teeth and shouted these words in a low voice. Yang Gui, who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, received Yang Yanzhao's order and led his men out of the city gate without saying a word.
"Hehehe... Grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time." Outside the city gate, Xiao Tianzuo seemed to have known that Yang Gui was coming out. After seeing Yang Gui, he brandished two copper hammers and attacked Yang Gui with his teeth and claws. "Boom~" Xiao Tianyou was a vanguard figure in the Liao army. In addition, he was extremely powerful. When facing enemies on the battlefield, few were his opponents.
Yang Gui and Xiao Tianzuo fought hard, and when they felt the tiger's mouth numb, they knew they were invincible. So, Yang Gui used his skill to fight Xiao Tian Zuoyou. Although Xiao Tianzuo couldn't take down Yang Gui for a while, he had so many people that he almost blocked all Yang Gui's escape routes and continuously compressed the living space of Yang Gui and his cavalry.
Yang Gui and Xiao Tianzuo fought for a while. He and his cavalry were completely pinned on the bridge at the city gate, unable to move an inch. "Fight out." Yang Gui spotted a breakthrough, avoided continuing the fight with Xiao Tianzuo, and rushed over with his cavalry. Xiao Tianzuo blocked Yang Gui's siege, but Yang Gui broke through a gap. Yang Gui and his cavalry rushed through, tearing the gap even wider.
"It's annoying!" Xiao Tianzuo yelled angrily, "Chase!" Xiao Tianzuo seemed to be convinced of Yang Gui, and led his men to chase after Yang Gui. Yang Gui led the cavalry and continuously charged into the enemy formation. Xiao Tianzuo looked at the formation disrupted by Yang Gui and screamed angrily. "Yang Gui, you shy turtle, do you dare to fight with this general?"
However, no matter how provocative he was, Yang Gui ignored him. Xiao Tianzuo became furious and shouted, "Left and right, get my bow and arrows." Xiao Tianzuo held the five-stone bow in his hand and drew the long bow to a full circle.
"Whoosh~" An arrow shot out. "Pfft~" Xiao Tianzuo shot the arrow from Yang Gui's back, and Yang Gui had no way to avoid it. The five-stone bow was extremely lethal. The arrow pierced the body of a cavalryman under Yang Wu's command, and its power remained unabated. Suddenly it plunged into the back of Yang Gui who was running in front of the cavalry.
"Pfft~" Yang Gui immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and almost fell off his horse. He held on and continued to charge. Xiao Tianzuo was chasing after Yang Gui like he was chasing a rabbit. After running half a circle around the battlefield, Yang Gui was hit by three arrows and his face looked like platinum paper. Among the reorganized cavalry under his command, there were only more than a hundred casualties left.
"Withdraw." After disrupting the formation on the right side of the Liao army, Yang Gui could no longer hold on and decisively gave the order to retreat. Xiao Tianzuo had been chasing after Yang Wu and saw Yang Gui rushing around the battlefield and falling into Yanmen Pass again. He almost jumped out of anger. On top of the city, waves of Liao troops attacked. The soldiers of the Volcano Army were simply overwhelmed.
The brave Liao people scaled the city wall from the right side of the city and fought with the soldiers of the Volcano Army. Yang Yanzhao sent all his most trusted generals here. The two sides were killing each other on top of the city with blood and flesh flying everywhere. Lao Ge's face was covered with blood, and he was waving his long sword to meet the attacks of the two Liao soldiers. "Pfft~" He didn't pay attention and was bitten by the Liao army. There was a big gash on his arm and blood was flowing out. Lao Ge turned around and chopped down one of the Liao soldiers to death. Another Liao soldier took the opportunity to chop at Lao Ge's head.
"Dang~" "Pfft." Seeing that Lao Ge was about to die, a spear emerged from Lao Ge's left side and blocked the Liao army's scimitar. Another spear emerged from Lao Ge's right side and stabbed the Liao army into the heart. "Hehehehe...Uncle Ge, I saved your life. When this battle is over, you have to help me and let me become a general in the Yang Mansion." The two little heads started from Old Ge. One right popped up. One of the little guys said happily to Lao Ge. Lao Ge grinned, swung the long knife in his hand with all his strength, and cut behind the little guy's astonished face. The little guy didn't turn his head, but felt a warm, sticky liquid pouring into his neck.
Lao Ge pushed away the body of the Liao army, pulled out his long knife, and said with a mean smile: "The two are cleared." Ergouzi flattered him and said, "Uncle Ge is still great." Another little guy touched the neck. Xue Xue shouted angrily: "It's clear this time, but it won't be the same next time. Anyway, I will save your life and make you owe me."
Lao Gelang laughed loudly, "Then give it a try." The battle on the Yanmenguan city wall was very tragic. The Liao army was repulsed eighteen times and attacked eighteen more times. And it gets more and more fierce each time. The soldiers of the Volcano Army on the top of the city were decreasing sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye. Most of the civilian men who went up to the city to help defend the city were killed or injured. Lao Yang was covered in blood, his shoulders and legs were wrapped in white cloth, his helmet had been knocked off at some point, and his hair was messy.
"How many people are left?" Lao Yang asked Wang Gui beside him. Wang Gui whispered: "Counting the civilians, there are less than four thousand..." Lao Yang was silent for a while and whispered: "Let Wu Lang charge again." Wang Gui shouted hurriedly: "No, Wu Lang has already killed four people. Each time, the injuries were more serious than the last. He was hit by sixteen arrows and was covered with scars. If he went out again, only one would die." Yang Yanzhao's eyes were red and he growled: "Pass my order and let Erlang charge again."
Wang Gui cried and cried: "You are asking Erlang to die." Yang Yanzhao clenched his fists and said solemnly: "He is a soldier." "I'll go." He had just been carried up to the north gate tower by the soldiers. When Yang Gui heard what Lao Yang said, he gritted his teeth and got up. Yang Yanzhao did not dare to look at his son, but turned his back to him and waved.
Yang Gui reluctantly stood up. The soldiers beside him tried to help him, but he pushed him away. "Prepare a charcoal basin and a soldering iron for me." Yang Gui stood firmly and ordered his soldiers to prepare things. He walked down the city, one step at a time, one trembling step at a time. At the gate of the inner city, Yang Gui's remaining twelve cavalrymen all stared at him blankly. Yang Gui's soldiers brought the prepared soldering iron and charcoal basin in front of him.
"Help me remove the white cloth wrapping the wound." The cavalry and soldiers realized what Yang Gui was going to do, and they all looked at Yang Gui in horror. "Second General, no, no." "You will die." Yang Gui glanced at them coldly and shouted in a low voice: "Execute the order."
The cavalrymen and soldiers all burst into tears. The soldiers untied the white cloth wrapping Yang Gui's wounds, revealing arrow holes one after another. "Hot!" If Yang Gui wants to fight again, he is afraid that before he leaves the city gate, all the wounds on his body will burst open and he will bleed to death. The only way to quickly seal the wound is to burn it into a ball.
The soldier held the soldering iron in both hands and approached Yang Wu tremblingly. Yang Gui gritted his teeth and urged: "Hurry up, there is no time."
"Hey~" "Uh-oh~" "Gabaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.." The hot iron was lying on Yang Gui. Yang Gui was like a boiled red prawn, his face was red. He roared in a low voice and gritted his teeth. Together, it clicks. Sweat covered his cheeks in an instant, and his face turned from red to pale in an instant.
The veins on his neck bulged one by one, and the blood inside seemed to be ready to open the blood vessels at any time. The other unburned arrow holes on Yang Gui's body spurted out streams of blood arrows. The soldiers wanted to block it, but they couldn't. "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...General...wuwuwu...General..." The soldier's tears flowed freely, his hands were trembling, and he kept trying to seal the wounds on Yang Gui's body. "Ouch~"
Yang Gui looked up to the sky and roared, stared, stretched his neck, and roared in a low voice. "Continue...continue..." "Cough cough cough...wuwuwu...Second General..." The soldier could not say anything else anymore, crying, and that was all he said back and forth. Yang Gui growled, "Continue~" The soldier cried and shouted, raised the iron, and continued to burn the wounds on Yang Gui's body.
In order to prevent himself from screaming, Yang Gui bit a piece of wood in his mouth. The time lasted for a whole stick of incense, and all the arrow wounds on Yang Gui's body were burned with a soldering iron. Yang Gui looked like he was running through water. The soldiers were already scared to death.
He stared, his throat couldn't make a sound like "uh uh uh", and his eyes were dull. Yang Gui slowly raised his hand and cut the soldier's neck, causing the soldier to faint. Yang Gui pushed away the cavalry soldier who continued to wrap his wounds with white cloth. He stood up and put on his armor one by one. "Whoosh~"
He turned over and got on the horse, holding the big gun, his voice was hoarse and low, "Here, there will be death or no life..." Yang Gui was a question. He wanted to tell the remaining twelve cavalry to let them themselves choose. The cavalrymen didn't say a word and silently mounted their horses. Yang Gui nodded, stopped talking, and rode through the barbican city.
"Open the city gate." When the Thirteen Iron Cavalry appeared in Xiao Tianzuo's field of vision, Xiao Tianzuo was stunned. Before, he was furious because he didn't catch Yang Gui. Now when he saw Yang Gui again, he couldn't believe it. How can you still fight after being hit by sixteen arrows?
"Hehehehe...General, Yang Gui was hit by sixteen arrows and still dared to come out. This is giving us credit." The guards around Xiao Tianzuo looked at Yang Gui who reappeared with joy in their eyes. "Pa~" Xiao Tianzuo didn't say a word, he waved his big palm-like hand and slapped the guard so hard that he fell off his horse. "Bitch, what do you know?"
Xiao Tianzuo snorted coldly and stared at the bodyguard, "After this battle, don't stay by my side anymore." Xiao Tianzuo seemed to have become a different person, becoming cold and resolute. He is a man who laughs and curses freely. However, this does not mean that he is a fool. As a pure soldier, he knows what respect is.
"Kill!" "Kill!"
When the enemy and we meet, there are no unnecessary words. The word "kill" encompasses everything. Yang Gui led his twelve iron cavalry to fight against Xiao Tianzuo. When both parties separate. Only seven of the twelve cavalrymen under Yang Gui were left. Yang Gui struggled to break through Xiao Tianzuo's blockade. After breaking through Xiao Tianzuo's blockade, there were only four cavalrymen left around him. Including Yang Gui, the five people rushing into the formation were really a drop in the bucket on this battlefield with as many as 70,000 people. However, Yang Gui still did not forget his mission. He led the remaining four men and tried every means to disrupt the Liao army's formation.
Xiao Tianzuo was behind Yang Gui, bow and arrow, harvesting the lives of the cavalry one after another. In the end, Yang Gui was hit by two arrows, and only one of his cavalry was left, and he was missing an arm. It was just a charge across the right side of the Liao army, and Yang Gui was already exhausted. His vision had begun to blur.
Xiao Tianzuo followed closely behind. After seeing Yang Wu and a cavalry soldier, he waved his hand to signal other cavalrymen not to go over.
"You are an opponent worthy of respect. I will personally end your life. And, I will bury you according to the most noble etiquette of the Liao people." Xiao Tianyou said solemnly to Yang Gui, then rode his horse forward and pounced on you. Xiang Yang Wu. Yang Gui and his remaining subordinates sat alone on the horse, motionless.
"Dad...Mom..." Yang Gui murmured in a low voice and slowly closed his eyes. He no longer had the strength to resist. He also knew that he must die. "Save the Second Master~" At the critical moment, a loud shout sounded behind Yang Gui. A group of savage-like guys rushed out of the forest on fast horses.
One of the two leaders grabbed Yang Gui, and the other grabbed the one-armed cavalry soldier, turned around and ran away. Waves of arrows also fell at this time. He abruptly blocked Xiao Tian's left-forward step.
"Chase me." The cooked duck flew away. Xiao Tianzuo became furious and led the cavalry in pursuit. This scene happened at a remote foothold on the right side outside Yanmen Pass, and not many people noticed it.
The wild goose gate is closed. Yang Yanzhao was fighting hard with a big golden sword. The obstacle caused by Yang Gui's cross charge only caused the Liao army to pause for a moment.
"Commander, the east wall is broken..." "Commander, the west wall is also broken..." "Commander, there are less than 3,000 people left..." "Commander, there are 1,600 left. There are so many people..." "..."
Every sound of report was telling Yang Yanzhao something. Yanmen Pass can no longer be defended. Brother Yelulang, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw that the Liao army had captured the city walls on the east and west sides, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Yanmen Pass has been taken." Brother Yelu Lang ordered the guards around him, "Follow me to Yanmen Pass. Tonight, I will hold a banquet in Yanmen Pass to reward the three armies." The guards escorted Brother Yelu Xiu and walked slowly towards Yanmen Pass. Go ahead. The Yanmen was closed, and the remaining three hundred Volcano Army soldiers were forced to the north gate tower.
Thousands of Liao troops are working together to strangle them. Yang Yanzhao waved the big golden sword with disheveled hair, and his mind was blank. Yanmen Pass is lost. All his volcano troops were dead. He doesn't need to command anyone anymore. Killing is enough. No compensation for killing one. Kill two and make a profit. All the soldiers of the Volcano Army also had this thought.
No one wanted to surrender. "Pfft~" A spear stabbed Lao Ge while Lao Ge wasn't paying attention. A childish face appeared in front of Lao Ge and helped him block the blow. Lao Ge reacted and killed the Liao army with one knife. After killing the Liao army, he quickly hugged the little guy who was about to fall.
"Cough cough cough... puff... cough cough... Ge... Uncle Ge... you finally owe me again... cough cough cough..." Lao Ge's tears couldn't stop rolling down, and he hugged him tremblingly. The little guy shouted: "Are you stupid? Why are you doing this... Why..."
"I'm already an old guy, I deserve to die, I deserve to die." "It doesn't matter if I die, but you are younger than me, so you shouldn't die for me."
"It's not worth it..." The little guy coughed up another mouthful of blood with a bright smile on his face. "Ge...Uncle Ge...I think...I think...it's worth it..." Lao Ge waved his sword and killed the Liao army while retreating with the little guy in his arms. "You stupid guy..." Lao Ge cried and cursed. The smile on the little guy's face froze, his whole body trembled, and his voice was a little weak. "Ge...Uncle Ge...Am I...am I...dying...?" Lao Ge could feel the little guy's aura weakening.
He was in tears and couldn't say a word. The little guy looked a little depressed. "But...it's a pity...following...following...behind you...for so...such a long...time..." "Finally...finally...let you...owe...owe me... ..." "It's a pity... it's a pity... I... I... am... about to... die..." "I can't... I can't see... the eldest young master... the eldest young master..."
Lao Ge shook the little guy vigorously and shouted loudly, "No, no, you can't sleep, you can't sleep, you must live. I promised to take you to see the eldest young master, and also recommended to the eldest young master that you should be His personal entourage.”
"Don't sleep, don't sleep..." The little guy looked up at the sky and murmured: "I really want... I really want... to take a look... the young master... that... that..." "Ah~" The old man Ge roared loudly.
"Rumble..." "Rumble..." The majestic sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded. Thousands of horses galloping. Then, getting closer. Everyone on the city was stunned.
"Whoosh~" A big gun flew onto the city wall like an arrow. The Liao army who raised his sword to attack Lao Ge was nailed to the city wall with a big gun. The man who threw the gun was very powerful. Even if the big gun was inserted into the city wall, its tail was still trembling.
"Tiger Head Black Golden Spear?!" Lao Ge suddenly became overjoyed and shook the little guy in his arms vigorously, "Xiao Heng, Xiao Heng, the eighth sister is here, the eighth sister is here." Lao Ge pointed and returned The trembling Tiger Head Black Gold Spear said excitedly: "Eighth Sister's Tiger Head Black Gold Spear." "Really...really...you...you didn't...lie to me..." The little guy struggled to open his eyes, Try to see the tiger-headed black gold gun on the wall.
Lao Ge said excitedly: "It's really here, it's really here. The Eighth Sister should have come with reinforcements, so we don't have to die." Lao Ge picked up the little guy on his back, fought hard, and moved closer to Lao Yang. Next to Yang Yanzhao, Wang Gui also shouted excitedly, "Commander, Commander, the Eighth Sister is here." Yang Yanzhao came back to his senses slightly, and was slightly startled when he heard the majestic and powerful sound of horse hooves. Then, Yang Yanzhao straightened his face and said calmly: "As soon as we come, we will come. Why panic... stabilize the formation and wait for rescue."
In Yanmen Pass, Yang Bamei and Fan Long were riding side by side, fighting each other to rush forward. Behind them, a huge army of cavalry swarmed in. "The cavalry rushes into battle, and the infantry goes up to the city wall to defend the city." Yang Qi shouted loudly. The Feng brothers and Niutou Mamian, who were following him, immediately followed Yang Bamei's orders. "Bibi, let's see who kills more?"
Yang Bamei glanced sideways at Fan Long and said, "Childish." Fan Long could be said to be the number one general among Yang Peng, and even Yang Peng would not accept his opponent because he was too straightforward. Enter from the south gate and rush to the north gate wall. Yang Bamei asked Fan Long to lead the troops to kill the Liao army, then reined in his horse and went to the top of the city. As soon as I reached the top of the city, I saw the Liao army filling the city wall.
Yang Bamei was not polite either. He casually grabbed a big gun and swung it like a windmill, from the stairs to the city gate to the north gate tower. Along the way, Yang Bamei encountered almost no enemies of Yihe. He didn't use any skills at all. He just relied on his amazing strength to mow down a large area with one shot. One by one, the Liao troops were knocked away like rubber balls. When Yang Bamei reached the north gate gate building, it was like being crushed by a steamroller.
Wherever he passed, there were no Liao troops. In front of the north gate building, Wang Gui stared and asked in shock: "When did Eighth Sister become so fierce?" Yang Yanzhao also had a dull look on his face and said in shock: "How do I know?" Wang Gui said: "You are his brother, you Don't you know?" Yang Yanzhao said angrily: "You are still his uncle, don't you also know?"
Wang Gui sighed, "It's a pity that such an unparalleled warrior should be a civil servant." Yang Yanzhao said calmly: "The men and women of our Yang family are both civil and military. It is a pity to be civil or military." Wang Gui looked disdainful.
Yang Bamei rushed to Yang Yanzhao, looked at Old Yang carefully, and asked: "Brother, are you injured?" Yang Yanzhao glared, assumed the posture of a strict father, and said: "There is no one who is not injured in a war." Yang Bamei said hurriedly : "I'll find someone to carry you down to rest." Yang Yanzhao waved his hand, "The enemy has not retreated, and I still have to command the battle." Yang Bamei said angrily: "Just... there are more than a hundred of you?" Yang Bamei's eyes were round. Kai, "There are also reinforcements under your command. All armies of the Song Dynasty must be controlled by this commander when they arrive at Yanmen Pass."
"Ha~" Yang Bamei shook her head and smiled, "You should take a closer look to see if the reinforcements are Song soldiers. You give orders and see if they listen to you." "How could it be?" "I went into battle myself. Do you think it might be them?" Reinforcements sent by the Song Dynasty?" Yang Yanzhao carefully observed the soldiers who rushed to the city to strangle the Liao army, and looked at their unique Jin Yiwei logo. There were gunshots everywhere,
Yang Yanzhao sat down on the ground with a puff. Then, without saying a word. Yang Bamei was too lazy to pay attention to Lao Yang. He looked around and frowned gradually. "Where is the eldest nephew?" Yang Yanzhao and others then thought of Yang Gui. Yang Yanzhao stood up, grabbed Yang Bamei's shoulders, and said: "Go to the outside of the pass to find your eldest nephew. He went out to rush into the battle. Find him quickly, he may still be alive."
Yang Bamei suddenly turned dark. "If I were you, I would give up Yanmen Pass without reinforcements. Others want to trick you, but you will really fall for it." Yang Yanzhao glared and shouted: "How presumptuous! As a general of the Song Dynasty, I have received a salary from the imperial court. You should kill the enemy with your life." Yang Bamei glared at Yang Yanzhao and whispered: "If something happens to your eldest nephew, you will definitely regret it. All of you will regret it."
Yang Bamei's eyes were cold, like a wolf, a wolf that could explode at any time. Yang Yanzhao shouted loudly: "How dare you, is this how you talk to your brother?" Yang Bamei ignored him at all, but found her own tiger-headed black gold gun on the top of the city. Then he hurriedly got off the city, got on horseback, and rushed out of Yanmen Pass.
On top of the city, Yang Yanzhao roared loudly. After a long time, Lao Yang collapsed to the ground and said with tears: "Wang Gui, have I made a mistake?" "No, there is a country. Only when there is a country, there is a family. As soldiers, it is our duty to defend the country. You can't abandon public service for personal reasons." "Then why is he staring at me with that fierce look?"
Yang Yanzhao murmured: "The eldest nephew is his junior, and he is also my son. Is it true that he is the only one who feels uncomfortable, and I don't feel uncomfortable as well?" Wang Gui was silent for a moment, and whispered: "Eighth sister is different from you, he values friendship more. Now it seems that he was right not to join the army, otherwise with his character that values friendship, big trouble would have occurred."
If you want to know what happens next, let’s look at the breakdown in the next chapter.
