The more than 20,000 remnant troops of Nga Wang and Busang were defeated and fled eastward in a panic. They were so frightened that they felt that everything was under control. More than 20,000 people rushed to the west bank of the Dan River. It was already the morning of the next day. Under the sunlight, the crimson Rouge Mountain on the other bank was even more beautiful. When the Tubo soldiers saw Rouge Mountain, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Busang said worriedly: "We failed to defend Xuanhua Mansion. I wonder how the general will punish us?" Awang sighed, "It's useless to think about this. We failed to defend Xuanhua Mansion. If the general wants to punish us, we will Just take it!" Busang sighed and nodded.
More than 20,000 soldiers and horses crossed Rouge Mountain, and the team entered the mountain sparsely. Everyone looked exhausted and panting. The cavalry was okay, but the infantry seemed to be dying.
After walking for a while, some people couldn't stand it anymore and stopped to rest. Seeing this, other soldiers also stopped one after another, sitting or lying on the ground scattered in the col. Busang said to Awang: "Everyone can't stand it anymore, let's take a rest!" Awang looked at the soldiers staggering around and felt very tired. He nodded, got off his horse and walked to a small pine tree. I sat down next to him, lowered my head and panted, thinking back on the past two days, it felt like I had a big dream.
Busan brought water and dry food and handed them to Ngawang. Awang took the water bag, removed the stopper, raised his head and gurgled half of the bag, put down the water bag, and let out a long breath. He handed the water bag back to Busang, who took it, raised his head and filled half of the bag, put down the water bag, and let out a long breath.
Awang turned his head and looked at this mountain col, frowned and said: "We have been in Rouge Mountain for so long, why haven't Nuoba sent someone to greet us?" Busan said with some annoyance: "He is too careless. I will wait for you." I must punish him!"
At this moment, there was a loud rumbling sound from the mountain col in front. It was obvious that a large group of people was approaching, but because there was a mountain mouth not far away blocking the view, it was not clear who was coming. Busang smiled and said: "It must be Noba, it seems we have wronged him!" Awang nodded, stood up, and looked towards the mountain col ahead.
A moment later, countless cavalrymen were seen turning around the mouth of the mountain and rushing over, running and roaring with astonishing momentum. When all the Tubo soldiers suddenly saw such a scene, they were stunned for a moment, and then turned pale with shock. Someone shouted: "It's not our people, it's the Yanyun Army!" There was a commotion in the entire mountain col.
Awang pulled out his scimitar and shouted loudly: "Get ready to fight!" Hearing Awang's roar, all the soldiers calmed down, drew their swords one after another, lined up in formation, mounted their horses, and prepared to fight.
Yan Yun's cavalry ran to a stop more than a hundred paces in front of the Tubo army, and formed a charging formation. Busang and others were surprised when they saw King Yang Peng of Yan standing in front of the cavalry. Busang looked confused and said: "King Yan, he, why is he here?" Awang also had the same question, and the two of them I originally thought that Yang Peng and more than 20,000 Yanyun war riders should be in Xiliang Mansion, but I never expected that they would meet here. Awang suddenly felt that he might have fallen into the opponent's trap from the beginning. He frowned and said: "I'm afraid that we have all been fooled by King Yan. He expected that we would raid Rouge Mountain and Xuanhua Mansion early on. We attacked The actions of Rouge Mountain and Xuanhua Mansion are just falling into their trap!”
Busang was shocked, "How could that happen?"
Awang did not answer him, but stared at Yang Peng, suddenly frowned, and said: "Let's fight out!" Busang was startled and frowned.
At this moment, Yang Peng raised his right hand, and suddenly, countless figures appeared on the hillsides on both sides. The Tubo soldiers in the col were startled. Only then did they realize that not only were Yanyun warriors riding in front blocking the passage, but there were also countless enemy troops ambushed on the slopes on both sides. If a war broke out in this situation, the result would be There won't be any suspense, unless the whole army is wiped out and died without a burial place. The desperate spirit that Awang had just aroused suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he wanted to escape to the west, so he whispered to Busang: "Give the order quietly, and the army will immediately turn around and rush out of Rouge Mountain!" Busang nodded, and then Give the order in a low voice.
However, at this moment, a loud rumbling sound was heard from behind. Awang was startled and asked anxiously: "What's going on behind the scenes?" Busan shook his head to express his ignorance. At this moment, a cavalry officer panted and galloped towards him from behind, with a worried look on his face. : "No, it's bad, there are Yanyun troops behind, too!" Awang and others were shocked, and quickly looked behind, only to see thousands of majestic war horses in black clothes and black armor led by a heroic general. Slowly approaching, it turned out to be the strongest cavalry Xuanjia Army in the world! Awang and others could not help but despair.
Busang looked pale and said: "The enemy troops are blocking the front and rear of the mountain col, and there are ambushes on the slopes on both sides. Our new army has been defeated and exhausted. How can we fight this battle!" Ngawang frowned and was flustered. He also Don't know what to do.
At this time, Wang Kaiyang, the hidden killing captain beside Yang Peng, shouted: "Those who put down their weapons will not be killed, and those who resist stubbornly will be killed without mercy!" There was an immediate commotion among the Tubo people, and everyone seemed to be excited, but for a moment there was no one. People take the lead.
Wang Kai said again: "I will hit you dozens of times. If you don't surrender, we will no longer show mercy! One, two,"
The Tubo soldiers looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do. Busang looked at Awang, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
"Three, four, five,"
Busang couldn't help but said: "General Awang, at this point, we have no other choice but to surrender. We have tried our best." Awang frowned. He had a desire to fight Yan Yunjun. Finally feeling the urge, he raised his head and looked at Chen Xiao fiercely.
"Six, seven, eight"
When Wang Kai counted to eight, Awang's heart was shocked. The thought of desperately wanting to fight suddenly disappeared. Awang wanted to surrender, but his pitiful dignity prevented him from saying anything. At this moment, there was a cry next to him. An officer threw away his weapon, jumped off his horse, and knelt down to beg for mercy. Awang was shocked.
Someone took the lead, and all the soldiers in the army couldn't wait to throw away their weapons and knelt down. There was a loud banging sound. The mountain col was full of people kneeling, and only Ngawang and Busang were left sitting on the horse. It seems particularly conspicuous.
Wang Kai stopped counting and looked at Yang Peng, but Yang Peng didn't say anything.
Busang said to Awang: "General Awang, the matter has come to this, what should we do?" Awang sighed long and helplessly: "The general trend is the general trend, what else can I say?" Then he got off the horse and untied his waist. He picked up the scimitar, threw it to the ground, and knelt down towards Yang Peng. Seeing this, Busang quickly followed suit.
Yang Peng smiled and waved his right hand, and the cavalry immediately stepped forward and suppressed the prisoner Meng. Zhan Jinguo came to Yang Peng, glanced at Awang and others who were being escorted away in the distance, and asked: "Brother, don't you interrogate them?" Yang Peng shook his head and said: "It's not necessary. These guys are running around in a hurry. Coming here, like a lost dog, naturally suffered a big defeat at Xuanhua Mansion!" Zhan Jinguo nodded.
Yang Peng frowned and said, "What I'm worried about now is Xiliang Mansion. I'm afraid that Xiliang Mansion won't be able to defend it!" He turned to Zhan Jinguo and said, "You immediately lead the Xuanjia Army to rescue Xiliang Mansion. If Xiliang Mansion is still there, In our hands, you will assist the defense of Yeqi Guanyin. If it is lost, you will lead the Xuanjia Army to cover the princess and their retreat to Zhuoluo City." Zhan Jinguo clasped his fists in agreement, turned around and shouted at his Xuanjia Army, and the two More than a thousand riders sped towards the east.
Yang Peng thought for a moment and ordered Shi Ping to lead five thousand cavalry to guard the prisoners, while he led other light cavalry eastward out of Rouge Mountain and towards Xiliang Mansion.
At the same time, the battle in Xiliang Mansion has entered its most critical moment. According to Duosang's plan, the Tubo army built a mountain of earth and approached the city wall. The Yanyun defenders had nothing to do. They bombarded it with artillery. All the artillery shells hit the mountain of earth and could not cause any harm to the Tibetan army behind the mountain. Suddenly, it was still Keep approaching the city wall and attack. At this time, there are only infantry and no cavalry in Xiliang Mansion. If we attack and fight in the wilderness with an enemy army that is ten to twenty times our own, even if Yan Yun's generals can be called the most powerful warriors in the world, , there is absolutely no possibility of victory, they will only be completely annihilated by the enemy.
Yan Yun had no way to deal with the approaching mountain, so he could only watch the mountain approaching. This morning, the mountains of earth were approaching. At this moment, there was a sudden loud bang, and the tall mountain of earth collapsed and hit the city wall. In an instant, a hole was opened in the city wall.
When the Tubo army saw this, they were very surprised. The army immediately poured into the city through the gap. Ye Qi Guan called Yang Jing's Mo Dao Army to resist frontally. The Iron Tower Mo Dao Army blocked the front of the gap, blocking the surging wave of enemy troops like a dam before a flood. There were roars and screams, and the light of the swords and the light of blood Flying all over the sky, Mo Dao passed by, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. Under the wall of swords, they were torn apart. However, the wave of enemy troops was so fierce that Mo Dao's army was gradually unable to withstand it.
Seeing this scene, Yedi Guanyin dispatched other troops to reinforce Yang Jing's Mo Dao Army and organized a suicide squad to launch a surprise attack. There was a loud bang, and a flame suddenly rose from the gap. Many Tibetan soldiers died in the violent explosion. The Modao Army and other troops retreated, and the suicide squads carrying gunpowder bags roared and rushed into the enemy group in the gap. Violent explosions occurred one after another, and the smoke and flames instantly flooded the gap. The Tubo soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
Seeing such a scene, the Tubo soldiers were frightened and subconsciously withdrew from the gap. At this time, Yeli Guanyin commanded the soldiers on the wall to fire arrows at the Tubo army who were retreating along the earth beam. Many Tubo soldiers were hit by arrows and fell down, one by one rolling down the earth beam.
The Tubo shield bearers protected the archers on the earth beams. Arrows fired from the city wall hit the iron shields with a loud clang and could hardly hurt the Tubo people at all. The Tubo people waited for the rain of arrows from Yan Yun's army to pass. The shield-bearer lowered his shield to reveal the protected archer. The archer was already ready to attack and fired a wave of arrows at the city wall. The rain of arrows poured down, and Yan Many soldiers fell down. After the Tibetan archers fired one round, the shield bearers protected the archers again. In this way, because the Tubo people were condescending, the Yanyun Army continued to suffer casualties, and the situation was very unfavorable for the Yanyun Army.
Songhe and others who were standing on the archery tower watching the battle couldn't help but smile when they saw that their side had suppressed their opponents. Then he saw the Yanyun army on the wall near the gap withdrawing. Songhe laughed and said: "The Yanyun people can't resist it anymore!" Duosang said anxiously: "General, hurry up and order the army to attack the city!" Songhe said with a loud smile: "The Yanyun people can't resist it anymore!" He nodded, turned to a herald beside him and said: "All troops attack!" The herald promised loudly, raised the flag in his hand, and sounded loudly in a certain rhythm with the sound of the horn.
The shield bearers and archers on the earth beam immediately gave way to both sides. There was a loud rumbling on the earth beam, but it turned out that it was the Tubo assault infantry pushing many sword carts up the earth slope and rushing towards the gap.
The Tubo army pushed many sword carts into the gap and slammed into the Modao Army's defense line. The Modao Army's defense line was immediately knocked to pieces. Yang Jing became furious, screamed, and rushed forward with a pair of axes. A bunch of axes slammed down on a knife cart, and the knife cart was smashed into pieces with a loud bang. The Tubo soldiers were horrified, and then pushed two sword carts to attack from the left and the right. Li Kui shouted, and blocked them with a wooden axe. The two sword carts suddenly stopped as if they had hit an iron plate. , the dozens of Tibetan soldiers pushing the knife cart felt a sudden shock in their bodies, their blood surged, and then they all couldn't help but change their colors in horror.
Just as Yang Jing was resisting the two sword carts, several Tibetan sergeants rushed out from between the two sword carts with their spears, and stabbed Yang Jing hard in the chest. At this time, his hands were immediately against the two knife carts, unable to resist them at all. He saw several sharp gun heads hit Yang Jing's chest heavily with a loud snap, knocking Yang Jing back a step, but he didn't. It can penetrate Yang Jing's body. It turns out that Yang Jing is wearing a general-level Xuantian armor, and the opponent's attack cannot penetrate it. The armor of the Yanyun Army is divided into three types. One is Yang Yanzhao's infantry armor. This is the most basic armor. It is equipped with infantry. It is improved on the basis of the Song Dynasty infantry armor. Its defensive capabilities are equivalent to the Song Dynasty infantry armor. Most infantry are equipped with this kind of armor; the second type is called black lion plate armor, which is a real plate armor. Its defensive effect is greatly improved compared to infantry armor. Ordinary long swords and spears cannot penetrate this kind of armor. Only specialized Only armor-breaking weapons, such as maces, can break through this kind of armor. Although this kind of armor has good protection, it is ten times more expensive than infantry armor. All Mo Dao troops are equipped with this kind of armor; the third type The Xuantian armor worn by Yang Jing has stronger protective power than the Xuantian lion armor. Even heavy weapons such as maces are not easy to break through this armor. However, this armor is heavier and more expensive than the Xuantian armor. The lion armor is higher, and is currently only equipped with the King of Yan's cavalry and generals above the command level.
Yang Jing was knocked back a step, and two knife carts rushed up. Yang Jing was forced to retreat continuously.
Just when Yang Jing was furious and wanted to fight, Yan Yun's horn suddenly sounded briefly. Yang Jing was stunned, muttered displeasedly, and immediately shouted loudly: "Retreat! Retreat!" Yang Jing and more than 2,000 Modao troops immediately dispersed into the streets and alleys.
Song He, who was watching the battle on the archery tower, was very happy when he saw that Yan Yun's Mo Dao army was defeated. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Everyone said that Mo Dao's army was so powerful, but I think it's nothing more than that!" All the generals also said: Very excited.
Yan Yun Mo Dao's army retreated, and the Tubo army poured into the city like a flood from a broken embankment. The soldiers roared and shouted in great excitement.
Dong Dong Dong Dong... Yan Yun's war drums suddenly sounded loudly, but the Tibetan army soldiers who were in high spirits ignored it at all and continued to shout and rush into the streets and alleys, as if they were slowly entering the flood of the city, immersed in it. Everywhere in the streets.
Suddenly, countless figures of the Yan Yun Army appeared on the roofs of the surrounding houses. Standing on the highest wooden building was the Princess of Yan, Ye Qi Guanyin. Ye Qi Guanyin raised her right hand and pressed forward. Suddenly, the arrows were like a heavy rain, and they were buried in the enemy's tide. Only the sound of "Puff, Puff, Puff" was heard. Along with the screams one after another, the Tubo soldiers fell down one after another. On the ground, the raging 'flood' appeared with countless ripples. The Tubo soldiers were startled and subconsciously stopped charging. Arrows rained constantly on the roof, and the Tibetan soldiers crowded in the streets were hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another. Some Tibetan archers fought back. However, due to their unfavorable position, the counterattack was very ineffective.
Ouch! A tiger-like roar suddenly came from the front of a street. The Tubo soldiers were startled and hurriedly looked forward. They saw the ferocious Yang Jing leading hundreds of Mo Dao troops to fight back. Hundreds of soldiers like iron towers rushed towards them with an astonishing momentum. The whole street was shaking slightly. Tremble.
After the Tubo army was startled, they immediately surged up with endless fighting spirit and surged forward with shouts. The tide rolled, and their strength was ten times that of Yan Yun's army.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides collided violently, and the Tubo people's scimitars fell on the Mo Dao army one after another. There was a clanging sound and sparks flew everywhere. However, when Mo Dao slashed at the Tubo people, flesh and blood flew everywhere. Wherever the sword passed by, broken limbs were flying everywhere. The two sides fought for a while, and corpses filled the streets, all of them Tibetan corpses. The momentum of the Tubo people's attack was severely curbed, and then the Mo Dao army lined up in rows. Their long knives flew up and down to form a wall of sharp knives and pushed forward. Wherever the sword passed by, human bodies were torn apart and blood rained all over the sky. The Tibetan army was so frightened that they retreated.
At the same time, in other streets and alleys, various teams of Mo Dao soldiers were also fighting back bravely. With the support of dense arrows overhead, the corpses of Tibetan soldiers were lying on their pillows and covered with blood in the ditch, and they were constantly being escorted back to the gap. The Tubo soldiers retreated to the gap, and Songhe's strict order was passed down, "Anyone who dares to take another step back will be killed without mercy!" '. The Tubo soldiers were frightened, and then they plucked up the courage to get angry and started to fight back. At this time, the Yanyun Army was also attacking with all its strength. The two huge forces were against each other, and they were in a stalemate for a while. All that was seen was blood and flesh flying everywhere, and more and more corpses were piled up.
Song Hyuk no longer had the relaxed attitude he had before, his brows were furrowed, his lips were pursed tightly, and he was holding the knife handle with his right hand so hard that even the knuckles of his fingers turned white. He was very anxious and annoyed: Such a huge advantage in troops was actually counterattacked by his opponent, and he suffered heavy losses!
Duosang said anxiously: "General, our strength is more than ten times that of the other side. Don't just compete with them for one point. I think they have concentrated all their strength here. Why not separate two armies to attack the north and south cities respectively? The door will surely catch them by surprise!"
Song He nodded and immediately ordered Zhan Dui and Hanon to lead 20,000 troops to attack the north and south gates respectively. The two generals took the order and left, and then the two armies separated from the Tubo formation and headed for the north and south gates respectively.
The two generals led their armies and rushed to the outside of the city on the north and south sides respectively. Seeing that there were not many defenders on the city walls, they couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately launched their troops to attack. The army carried the ladder and rushed to the bottom of the city wall. Suddenly, there was a roar like thunder on the top of the city, and many soldiers of the Yanyun Army appeared like a magic trick. The Tubo soldiers were stunned, and then arrows rained down from the top of the city, and rolling rocks and trees poured down. The Tubo soldiers crowded under the city wall were immediately covered with blood and flesh, and many were lost in the blink of an eye! The Tubo soldiers were horrified and quickly retreated.
Standing on a high building in the city to watch the battle, Yeli Guanyin saw that the enemy troops who had attacked the north and south gates were repelled. He smiled coldly and returned his eyes to the gap. I saw that the armies of both sides were still fighting fiercely at the gap. The Tubo people were obviously crazy and vowed to capture the city. Even the Modao army suffered many casualties. Ye Qi Guanyin couldn't help but frowned. Although he had resolutely resisted the enemy's attack, the enemy's troops were too strong. If they continued to be used up like this, sooner or later they would be unable to withstand it. Even if they killed five enemies, only one was killed. , which is absolutely unaffordable. If we keep fighting like this, the Tibetans will break through the city sooner or later.
Ye Qi Guanyin turned to Na Ren and said: "Herald the artillery team, bombard the earth beams!" The earth beams outside the city are much higher than the city wall. The artillery of this era cannot adjust the firing angle arbitrarily like modern artillery. This kind of primitive artillery is very It is difficult to adjust the shooting angle. Even if the artillery team tries its best, it may not be able to hit the top of the earth beam. It can only bombard the waist of the earth beam. This kind of earth beam is actually an earth mountain. What effect can bombarding the earth mountain have? Ye Qi Guanyin's move was probably a misstep.
Naren agreed and immediately gave the order. After receiving the order, the artillery team of the Yanyun Army immediately adjusted the firing angle and launched a round of salvo fire at Tuliang outside the city. With a huge roar, the artillery shells rumbled and hit Tuliang's waist. Dust flew up and the Tuliang was The Tibetan army could only feel the ground trembling under their feet at a distance, and could not help but feel frightened.
Several consecutive rounds of bombardment, although the momentum was extremely alarming, did not cause any substantial damage to the Tibetan army. However, the Tubo army on the earth beam was frightened by the constant earthquakes under their feet. They were only worried that the earth beam would suddenly collapse! Finally, someone couldn't help but turned around and ran away in fear. His run was like the first domino falling. The Tibetan soldiers on the ground scrambled and turned around to escape. In the frenzy, they pushed each other. As a result, many Tibetan soldiers were killed. The soldiers rolled down from the high earth beams and screamed. The scene was very chaotic.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
