Seeing the Yanyun army at the foot of the mountain beating drums and shouting continuously, Songhe just ordered the soldiers of all armies to guard tightly and strictly prohibit them from going out to fight. Suddenly, a Yanyun general galloped out of the military formation and came to a flat land halfway up the mountain. He shouted in a thunderous voice: "Grandson of Tubo, you are hiding in a turtle shell and dare not come out." ? Come out quickly and fight your Black Grandpa for three hundred rounds!" The Tubo generals were all agitated by his insults and could no longer hold back.
Zhan Dui approached Song He and asked for a fight: "General, I'm going to kill that barbarian!"
Duosang hurriedly said: "No, no!" Then he pointed to the Yanyun warrior who was shouting and cursing at himself halfway up the mountain, and said: "This man has a majestic physique, a fierce temperament, a dark complexion, and a face full of steel beards. He should be Yanyun. The famous warrior Yang Jing! If you rush to fight, I'm afraid you won't be able to please him, so it's better to guard the city!"
Zhan Dui suffered heavy losses due to the failure of the previous attack on Yan Yun's army, and was also seriously injured. He just felt that he could not hold his head up in front of his colleagues, and was eager to find an opportunity to regain his prestige. He only felt that Yang Jing came to challenge him and it was a great opportunity to establish his prestige. It was a good opportunity, so he sneered at Duosang's words and said angrily: "You are afraid of Yanyun Warriors, but I am not! Yanyun Warriors are just like chickens, ducks, deers and sheep in my eyes. Killing them is like beheading them." Kill the deer and sheep!" Song He was very happy to hear what he said. He pointed at Yang Jing who was challenging on the hillside and said: "If you can kill this enemy general, I will give you a great reward!" Zhan Dui bowed and said: " General, please wait a moment, I will come as soon as possible!" He then ran down the city wall with his sword in hand.
Then the city gate opened wide, and Zhan Dui rushed down with a big sword amidst the shouts of the Tubo soldiers. When he came to the platform in the middle of the hillside, he reined in his horse, pointed his sword at Yang Jing and shouted: "I am the Tubo General..." Before he could finish his words, Yang Jing, who had been waiting impatiently, raised his sword. A pair of axes rushed forward with a strange scream, coming menacingly. Zhan Dui was determined to kill the general and establish his power, but he couldn't help but be horrified when he saw the opponent coming with such ferocity.
Yang Jing rode his horse and rushed to Zhan Dui, shouted, raised the ax in his right hand high, reflecting the bright light in the sunlight, and then struck Zhan Dui on the head with a powerful force like a mountain avalanche, extremely powerful! Zhan Dui's color changed in shock, and he hurriedly raised his sword to block. He only heard a loud bang, and the mountains echoed!
Yang Jing saw that the opponent had blocked his powerful blow, and his eyes immediately showed excitement. When he thought about it, it would be too boring to kill him all at once. He would have to hit him dozens of times. It would be interesting if more than twenty people gathered together to kill him. Yang Jing swung the ax in his left hand toward the opponent from bottom to top. Zhan Dui saw a flash of cold light on the lower right, and his heart trembled. He hurriedly dodged sideways, and the ax flew up close to his body, and a strong wind blew on his face. Then, Zhan Dui was really shocked.
Zhan Dui became angry and shouted. He swept his sword with both hands towards Yang Jing. What he didn't expect was that the other party did not dodge. A pair of axes struck at Yang Jing in unison, one from the left and one from the right. They were all killed together. The way to play! Zhan Dui was startled, and immediately stopped caring about attacking the enemy. He withdrew his sword and held it against the pair of axes that had struck down quickly. There was a loud clang, and Zhan Dui felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him. The dismounted war horse suddenly fell down, and the war horse let out a mournful cry!
A sinister smile appeared on Yang Jing's face, he raised his ax and kept slashing straight up and down. Yang Jing's moves were clumsy, but Zhan Dui couldn't use them at all. He could only raise his sword to block the opponent's constant blows. Yang Jing saw A pair of axes kept hitting the pile of swords, making a loud banging sound. The scene was like blacksmithing! Zhan Dui only felt numbness in his arms, trembling all over, and was horrified in his heart. Although he couldn't fight back, he couldn't even escape. Yang Jing kept hitting him more than ten or twenty times. Zhan Dui was so shocked that his head was dizzy, his heart was beating wildly, his stomach was acid refluxed, and he wanted to vomit.
Yang Jing suddenly shouted and swept the ax with his right hand horizontally. Zhan Dui subconsciously thought that the opponent was still slashing straight down from above, so he hurriedly raised his sword. Suddenly, he was shocked to realize that the opponent's ax was not slashing straight down, but was coming across sideways. In shock, he hurriedly leaned back.
Snapped! The ax hit his sword hard. Zhan Dui felt an irresistible force coming towards him. He could no longer hold the sword and it flew out of his hand. Zhan Dui was horrified and hurriedly got on his horse, turned its head, and ran away towards the mountain. Yang Jing did not chase after him. He stood on the spot with two axes and laughed loudly: "You stupid idiot, didn't you want to take the black head of your grandpa black? Why did you run away?" Zhan Dui heard Yang Jing The sound of the voice only frightened the people out of their wits, and they urged their horses harder. They were truly as frightened as a bereaved dog!
Zhan Dui fled back to the fortress and saw Song He and others. He felt ashamed to see people. He lowered his head and said in shame: "I, I..." Someone taunted in a low voice: "I don't know who said Yan Yun is a warrior just now. They are all deer and sheep, and it is easy to kill them!" When Zhan Dui heard this, he felt even more ashamed. Song He didn't know what to say. He blamed Zhan Dui for his recklessness, but he was even more shocked by his opponent's power. He couldn't help but murmured: "This Yang Jing is so powerful!"
Duosang frowned and said: "I heard that this Yang Jing is the bravest among Yanyun's warriors. His martial arts are much better than him, but there are only a handful of people who are as brave and crazy as him!" Zhan Dui couldn't help but think of just now. During the fight with Yang Jing, Yang Jing completely ignored the defense and only focused on the attack. He could not help but feel frightened and murmured: "He is simply a lunatic. I have never seen such a guy before!"
At this time, Yang Jing's yelling and cursing was still heard continuously. The Tubo generals had witnessed the battle between Zhan Dui and Yang Jing, and they could no longer feel any anger. They just felt that it was better to ignore the madman. . As a result, no matter how much Yang Jing insulted him, the Tibetan army in the fortress remained indifferent. In the end, Yang Jing cursed until his voice became hoarse, and he had no choice but to return to his own army's formation angrily.
When he came to Ye Qi Guanyin, he said angrily: "Sister-in-law, the Tibetan turtle just refuses to come out of the turtle shell, which makes my voice hoarse!" Ye Qi Guanyin smiled slightly and praised: "Yang Jing is so brave. Fei Fei, stand down and attack. When big brother comes back, I will definitely go to big brother to ask for credit for you!" Yang Jing grinned and said, "Then I'll thank you sister-in-law first!" Then he said in a rush: "Sister-in-law, you are such a donkey. Niu She's gray grandson just refuses to come out, so why don't we just fight in!" Ye Qi Guanyin shook his head and said, "That's not possible! If we really launch an attack, I'm afraid we will be exposed!" Yang Jing blinked his big eyes. , looking like he didn’t quite understand.
Ye Qi Guanyin looked at the sky and saw that it had darkened. After about half an hour, night had completely fallen. Although there were stars and moons in the sky, they were blurry and indistinct from a distance in the wilderness. Yeqi Guanyin looked at the woods not far away and said to Naren beside him: "Send the order to the troops ambushing in the woods to retreat." Naren agreed and immediately sent a flying phoenix female guard to the woods to send the order. . Ye Qi Guanyin said to Yang Jing: "Let's go back to the camp!" Then he turned his horse's head and returned to the military camp, followed by all the soldiers.
The Tubo soldiers on the fortress could not help but feel relieved when they saw Yan Yun's army retreating through the dim light of the stars and moon. Duosang suddenly pointed at a forest at the foot of the mountain and shouted: "Look!" Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw a Yanyun army emerging from the woods. They could not see the specific situation clearly at night, they only felt that Flags swarmed and people looked forward to it, as if there were countless people and horses. Songhe couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he didn't rush down the mountain to attack the Yanyun army. Otherwise, he would have been attacked by the Yanyun army, and the consequences would be unimaginable! As soon as I thought about this, I felt that Princess Yanyun was really cunning, and I couldn't be careless, so I ordered the entire army to strictly guard the fortress, and no one was allowed to fight. Violators would be punished by military law! …
Ye Qi Guanyin, Yang Jing, and Yang Qi returned to the tent. Yang Qi said angrily: "These Tubo people are really courageless. Sister Guanyin only deployed 10,000 troops, and they didn't even dare to come down the mountain!" During the day today, Ye Qi Guanyin, Yang Jing and others led 10,000 soldiers and horses to line up at the foot of the mountain to challenge the Tibetan army. Yang Qi led another 10,000 soldiers and horses to ambush in the woods. They waited for the Tibetans to come down the mountain to attack. They shot out to cover the back of the Tibetan people, but the Tibetan army did not move out, so this arrangement was of no use.
Ye Qi Guanyin sat down at the top and said with a smile: "If you don't come, you don't come. Although it didn't cause serious damage to the enemy, it still made the enemy suspicious. In this way, they didn't dare to go down the mountain to attack rashly. We only have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, if the Tibetans attack in large numbers, it will be very bad!"
Yang Qi rolled his eyes and asked: "The reason why my sister took the initiative to attack is that she must be suspicious of the soldiers, right? In this way, the Tubo people will think that our troops are sufficient and confident, and they will not dare to take the initiative to attack!" Ye Qi Guanyin smiled and said: "Eighth sister is indeed a tiger girl. You have seen every little trick of my little sister!" Yang Qi was very happy when she heard Ye Qi Guanyin's praise.
Ye Qi Guanyin frowned and said: "We must wait until the eldest brother has completely destroyed the Xixia army and comes back for reinforcements. At that time, we won't be afraid of anything!" He couldn't help but think of Yang Peng, and his beautiful and resolute face couldn't help but reveal tenderness. The expression comes. After coming back to his senses, he said to Yang Qi: "Eighth sister, send all the scouts to monitor every move of the Tibetan people on the mountain." Yang Qi responded and ran down.
At about the same time, the main force led by Yang Peng was attacking Guazhou City. The brilliance of the rockets illuminated the night sky. Yanyun's warriors rushed up the ladder and rushed towards the city. The city rams hit the city gate, making a huge noise. There were sounds of fighting everywhere on the city. Soldiers from both sides were bloody on the city. A fierce battle.
The soldiers of both sides fought fiercely on the city top, swords flashed and blood flew everywhere. Soldiers and officers fell to the city wall one by one. There were already mountains of corpses under the city wall. The roars were mixed with screams, the loud sounds of swords clashing, and the sounds of slashing flesh. Tubo General Ye Li Yuqi stood beside the wall ladder, constantly moving the reserve team to the top of the city, trying to drive back the Yanyun soldiers who rushed to the top of the city. However, the area controlled by the Xixia soldiers was constantly being reduced by their opponents.
Boom! Suddenly a loud noise came from the city gate tower. It turned out that the huge stone launched by Yanyun's catapult smashed the city gate tower. In an instant, bricks, stones and wood flew all over the sky, and the surrounding Xixia soldiers ran away with their heads in their hands, creating chaos. Yeli Yuqi was hit by a flying brick and his face was covered with blood. He couldn't help but scream. Seeing this, the soldiers next to him quickly protected him and ran down the city wall.
At the same time, the Xixia army that was struggling to resist on the city wall finally couldn't resist anymore. They were defeated and fled down the city wall in batches. In the blink of an eye, the entire city wall defense line collapsed. It was truly a crushing defeat! At this moment, there was a loud noise at the city gate, the city charger crashed open the city gate, and the warrior Yang Dezheng immediately led thousands of warriors to rush in. At this time, hundreds of thousands of Xixia troops tried to block the city gate, but they were defeated by Yan Yun's cavalry and were completely defeated. Yan Yun's war cavalry drove the defeated troops into the city, and the entire city was completely in chaos. The remaining soldiers were defeated, and the people of Xixia rushed towards the west and north gates one after another, scrambling to be the first, trampling on each other and killing countless people. …
Half an hour later, Yanyun's army completely occupied Guazhou City. There were 20,000 Guazhou defenders, 4,000 to 5,000 were killed, 23,000 were captured, and the few remaining defeated soldiers escaped from the city. Those people who had no time to escape saw that the city gates were occupied by Yan Yun's army. They had no choice but to return home and wait in fear for the new master's treatment.
Yeli Yuqi, who was covered in blood and in a state of embarrassment, was escorted in front of Yang Peng by two soldiers. Yeli Yuqi stood proudly and stared at Yang Peng. Wang Kai shouted: "Kneel down!" Ye Li Yuqi said without fear: "I am the general of Daxia, and I will not kneel to the lord of foreign countries!" Wang Kai was furious and ordered the two soldiers who were guarding him He was forced to kneel down. Yang Peng raised his right hand and said with a smile: "Don't make it difficult for him!" He walked up to Yeli Yuqi, looked him up and down, and asked: "You are my prisoner now, what should I do with you?" Yeli Yuqi He said loudly: "The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. As a general, I cannot protect my family and the country. I can only apologize with death!"
Yang Peng said: "You have another choice. Surrender to me. Not only will I not kill you, but I will also keep your official position." "Hmph! Yeli and beggars are not people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. They will never live in an ignoble way! If you If you don't kill me, I will kill you for revenge one day! Yeli Yuqi will keep his word!" His eyes widened with excitement, and it was clear that he had just said it.
When Yang Yanzhao, Yang Gui and others saw this, they all showed admiration. Yang Yanzhao couldn't help but said: "What a loyal and brave man!"
Yang Peng looked into Ye Li Yuqi's eyes, and saw only sadness and anger in his eyes, but not the slightest hint of fear. Yang Peng nodded and said: "You are a hero. If I try to persuade you to surrender again, it will be an insult to you! Since you are determined to repay Xixia with death, I will become you! Come on!"
Wang Kai came to Yang Peng, clasped his fists and promised: "My subordinates are here!" Yang Peng looked at Ye Li Yu Qi and said, "Take General Ye Li Yu Qi to the head of the West City and behead him in public!" Wang Kai promised and led the Two soldiers took Yeli Yuqi down. Yeli Yuqi suddenly turned around and shouted: "King Yan, you are indeed a great hero! It is enough for me, Yeli Yuqi, to die in your hands!"
Yang Peng sighed. Yeli Yuqi was taken away, and soon after, Wang Kai came back holding Yeli Yuqi's head. Yang Peng ordered: "Give him a good burial with the dignity of a general. The tombstone should read 'General Ye Li of Xixia was unyielding in a bloody battle and died at the top of Guazhou City!'." Wang Kai responded and held Ye Li in his hands. The beggar's head fell off.
Yang Peng turned around and said to Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui: "The war is progressing much more smoothly than I previously expected. The remaining Xixia remnants have little strength. I decided to leave 50,000 infantry troops to join the surrendered Xixia troops. The army continues to attack westward, and the main force returns to support Xiliang Mansion." Yang Yanzhao nodded and said: "That should be the case, Tubo is very worrying. If they make a desperate attack on Xiliang Mansion, they will pose a great threat to us. !" Yang Guidao: "With the troops in the hands of the princess, it is not a big problem to resist the Tubo attack!" Yang Yanzhao shook his head, "This is true under normal circumstances, but Xiliang Mansion has just been included in our territory by Yanyun. , the people's hearts are unstable, and there may be remaining forces that are loyal to Xixia waiting for an opportunity to recover. If the Tubo people attack Xiliang Mansion in a large scale, the outcome is really unpredictable! In a large army campaign, we should not take risks unless it is absolutely necessary. I support King Yan's return of reinforcements. Decision!" Yang Gui felt that his father's words made sense and couldn't help but nodded.
Yang Peng said: "If Xiliang Mansion is lost, the situation will be a bit troublesome. We cannot take it lightly." Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui clasped their fists and said: "The King of Yan is wise!" Yang Peng said to Yang Yanzhao and Yang Gui: "You two will continue to sweep Xixia for me. I will lead the army back to Xiliang Mansion to support the remnant." The two of them clasped their fists and promised.
At this moment, a well-traveled herald rushed to Yang Peng and knelt down to report: "To the King of Yan, Zan Pu, the governor of the Qing Tang Dynasty in Tubo, led a large force of 100,000 people to enter the snow mountain fortress." Yang Peng and the other three frowned slightly. Yang Gui raised his eyebrows and said worriedly: "As a result, Tubo has an army of more than 200,000 people north of the snow mountain. The princess and the queen are worth ten, I'm afraid..."
Snow mountain fortress. "General, our scouts reported that there are less than 30,000 enemy troops in front of us, including Xiliang Mansion!" Awang reported to Song He. Songhe was very surprised and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? With less than 30,000 soldiers and horses, how dare you take the initiative to attack the snow mountain fortress?" The other generals were also incredulous. Awang said: "This information is absolutely true. It was spread by the Xixia people from Xiliang Mansion. The main force of Yanyun left Xiliang Mansion many days ago to hunt down the remnants of Xixia."
Songhe looked at Zanpu, who frowned and said: "The Yanyun people are extremely cunning, I'm afraid we have indeed been fooled by them! They know that they are assuming an offensive posture, so we will definitely think that they are confident and have sufficient troops, and then They didn't dare to act rashly, so they deliberately assumed an offensive posture. The purpose of that Princess Yan must be to hold us back so that we wouldn't dare to act rashly before the main force of Yanyun solved the remnants of Xixia! And wait for them After the main force has eliminated the remnants of Xixia and completely annexed Xixia, they are no longer afraid of us launching an attack!"
Songhe only felt that he had been fooled, and couldn't help being very angry, and cursed: "Damn it!" Then he shouted to the generals: "Send the order, the whole army must assemble, kill down the mountain, first eliminate the current Yanyun army, and then attack Xiliang The government cuts off Yan Yun's army's retreat! Huh, I'll catch turtles in the jar and annihilate King Yan's army!" All the generals agreed in unison and ran out of the tent one after another.
At this moment, a messenger rushed in followed by a personal officer. The personal officer knelt down to Song He and said: "General, your Majesty's messenger is here!" Song He quickly left his seat, came to the tent, and bowed He bowed and said: "Songhe respectfully welcomes the imperial edict!"
The messenger said: "General, there is no need to be polite. I have brought your Majesty's oral instructions, instructing General Songhe to capture Princess Yeqi Guanyin of King Yan alive and send it to the Holy Capital. If you can do it, it will be a great achievement!"
Song He responded and said with some worry: "Although Ye Qi Guanyin is a very aloof woman, as a military general, I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to serve His Majesty, right?" Song He had met Ye Qi Guanyin, and at that time, he She was shocked when she saw it. She felt that such a beautiful woman was just like the legendary goddess of the Holy Mountain. Therefore, she was not surprised that the emperor issued such an imperial edict. She was just worried that Ye Qian Guanyin was so powerful in martial arts that if she was under His Majesty's There are evil intentions around me, I'm afraid no one can save His Majesty.
The messenger said: "These generals don't have to worry. Your Majesty is naturally fully prepared. The generals only need to do the things your Majesty has given them!" Songhe bowed and agreed.
The messenger said: "His Majesty's oral message has been conveyed to the subordinates, so I will take my leave now!" He bowed slightly to Song He. Songhe quickly bowed and said, "I'll see you off, sir." Then the two of them left the tent and said goodbye. The messenger entered the carriage, and the carriage galloped out of the military camp surrounded by the entourage.
Songhe thought for a while and ordered people to summon his trusted generals. He wanted to pass on the messenger's order, but he didn't want others to know. …
The 180,000 Tibetan army was assembled, and then with Hanon's 10,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard, the 180,000 army came down in a mighty manner. From a distance, it looked like a huge avalanche had erupted in the snowy mountains.
Hanon led 10,000 vanguards down from the mountain and then rushed into the nearby woods. This was to prevent Yanyun's army from setting up an ambush in the woods. However, Hanon's ten thousand soldiers and horses did not find half of Yanyun's army in the woods. Hanon immediately sent someone to report to Songhe.
After Songhe received the report, he immediately felt relieved and sent his army to attack Yanyun military camp. However, the Yanyun military camp was already deserted, and the Tibetan army occupied the military camp effortlessly.
At this moment, Song He received a report from a scout, saying that Yan Yun's army was found more than ten miles away and was retreating to Xiliang Mansion. Songhe said excitedly: "The Yanyun army wants to escape back to Xiliang Mansion, we can't let them succeed!" Then he ordered: "All soldiers and horses will pursue us immediately!" All the generals agreed in unison. The 180,000 Tibetan army moved on again, with the 20,000 war cavalry led by Zhandui and Hanon in front, and the 160,000 infantry behind. The 180,000 army was winding between the mountains like a giant dragon. The scouts kept sending back news that Yan Yun's army was getting closer and closer.
Soon after, another scout came with news: "General Qi, the two generals Zhandui and Hanon have caught up with Yanyun's army in the Elk Valley in front!" Songhe was overjoyed and said loudly: "Okay! Zhandui did a good job. Well, after annihilating this Yanyun army, he has achieved the first victory!" Then he shouted: "Speed up and move forward!" The voices of promises came and went, and the Tubo army accelerated their marching speed, and they were already running.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
