After confirming that all the Wuhuan people had withdrawn, Yang Ling ordered the tunnel to be filled in again.
While cleaning the battlefield, Yan Rou noticed that the clothes on the corpses of the Wuhuan people seemed to be a little different.
Having stayed in Wuhuan and Xianbei for a long time, he took a closer look and instantly recognized the origins of these people.
"These...are all Shanyu's royal guards!"
"The royal guard? What is that?"
Gan Ning said curiously.
"The Royal Guards are Shanyu's personal soldiers, and their number is extremely rare..."
After Yan Rou explained it to everyone, she laughed and said,
"I'm afraid Tadun will be heartbroken to death after losing so many royal guards this time!"
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Mr. Zitai. Fortunately, he reminded me, otherwise the Wuhuan people would have dug a tunnel and succeeded in the sneak attack."
Yang Ling said with a smile.
"The military advisor is welcome."
Tian Yu smiled modestly and said,
"It's the military advisor who is planning the strategy, and my subordinates just mentioned it."
Cao Jun in the city had won the battle and was rejoicing.
But Tadun Shanyu outside the city was not in such a good mood.
When he learned that Cao Jun had an ambush and that his royal guards suffered heavy losses, he almost cried out in distress!
"Master Yuan! Why, why is there an ambush by Cao Jun?!"
He stared at Yuan Xi fiercely and asked.
"This...I don't know this either!"
Yuan Xi felt extremely depressed.
When the city was guarded, any defender with a little bit of brains would dig tunnels to guard against the enemy.
Not to mention a top strategist like Yang Ling!
The reason why he proposed to dig a tunnel was because there was no other way.
But he didn't expect that Tadun Shanyu would throw the blame on him!
"Huchi...huchi..."
Tadun Shanyu gasped, and finally resisted the urge to kill Yuan Xi with a knife.
First, Liucheng was massacred, the altar was destroyed, and the graves of ancestors were dug up, and then so many elite royal guards were put in.
Tadun Shanyu's hatred for Yang Ling increased even more!
…
After the plan to dig a tunnel failed, Tadun Shanyu simply broke the jar and threw it.
Early the next morning, he began to send Wuhuan soldiers to attack Liucheng again!
But this time, he focused his attack on the gates of Liucheng!
Compared with the difficult city wall, the city gate undoubtedly seems much easier.
"Kill!"
"Come on!"
Countless Wuhuan soldiers, carrying a few pieces of wood they found from nowhere, braved the rain of arrows from Cao Jun, and launched an attack on the gate of Liucheng!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
With the constant banging of wood, the city gate let out an overwhelmed roar.
There were also several Wuhuan warriors, holding heavy axes and hammers, banging on the city gate!
Naturally, Yang Ling would not let them attack so wildly.
Cao's army on the city wall also targeted the Wuhuan people at the city gate.
Crossbow arrows, rolling logs, and rocks all came to greet the Wuhuan people!
After the Wuhuan people suffered huge casualties, the city gate, which was not considered strong, finally burst into pieces!
"The city gate is broken!"
A burst of cheers immediately broke out among the Wuhuan people!
Seeing the city gate collapse, Tadun Shanyu and others were also refreshed!
As long as they can enter the city, even without horses, the Wuhuan people can kill Cao Jun with their superior strength!
"Quick, give me more strength and attack the city as soon as possible!"
Tadun Shanyu urged.
The Wuhuan people rushed into the city gate one after another and began to clean up the debris blocking the city gate.
After once again paying countless lives, they finally cleared a road and entered the city!
Cao's army in the city was already well prepared, and they were locked in a fierce fight with the Wuhuan people who rushed in!
After knowing the news, Tadun Shanyu did not hesitate at all.
While commanding the remaining troops to gather at the city gate, he asked the remaining royal guards to attack.
Today he will definitely attack Liucheng and defeat Cao's army!
However, seeing the city gate being breached and the Wuhuan people attacking fiercely, Yang Ling on the city wall did not panic.
After seeing the Wuhuan army beginning to move over and using the breached city gate as an attack point, he waved his feather fan and said to Zhou Cang with a smile,
"Go and light the beacon!"
"Here!"
Zhou Cang clasped his fists and left.
After a while, a puff of wolf smoke rose up from the willow city!
Seeing this situation, Tadun Shanyu was just stunned for a moment and didn't take it to heart.
joke.
This place is more than a thousand miles away from Yuyang County. Even if Cao Jun over there receives the news, it is impossible for him to arrive in time.
But Yuan Xi and Sui Yuanjin on the side didn't think so.
Yang Ling has always been resourceful and would never ignite the flames of war for no reason!
It's just that the two of them spoke lightly and could only keep it in their hearts!
as expected.
Not long after, Yuan Xi and Sui Yuanjin’s worries came true!
When the Wuhuan people were attacking with all their strength and trying to capture Liucheng, the earth suddenly began to tremble slightly.
Tadun Shanyu was startled for a moment, then his expression changed drastically!
The Wuhuan people have been traversing the grassland for so many years, and he can tell without raising his head that a large number of cavalry are running wildly!
All I could see was the horizon in the distance, and a cavalry suddenly shot out!
The number of this cavalry is not large, only more than 5,000!
But their armor is refined and neat, their horses are superb, and their running momentum is no less than that of tens of thousands of cavalry!
The general leading them was none other than Zhang Liao!
When Yangling attacked Shouchun, it was Lu Bu who led the Bingzhou cavalry and lurked outside the city.
When the Shouchun city wall was blown down and Cao Jun entered the city, Lu Bu and his men caught Yang Ling off guard!
If it weren't for the soldiers beside Yang Ling who were holding three-eyed guns, and if Lu Bu was careless and was killed by Yang Ling's fire gun, Cao Jun would have been defeated!
This time, after knowing that Tadun Chanyu and the Wuhuan army were about to return to the defense, Yang Ling also followed Lu Bu's example.
He ordered Zhang Liao to lead the cavalry away and hide not far from Liucheng.
When the Wuhuan people become careless, they will light the beacon and release the signal, allowing Zhang Liao to lead his troops to kill them by surprise!
Watching Zhang Liao's troops move from far to near, the corners of Yang Ling's mouth turned up slightly.
Wenyuan, Wenyuan, the next step is up to you!
Because Cao's cavalry appeared so suddenly, the Wuhuan people who had dismounted and prepared to fight on foot were unable to react at all.
By the time they scrambled to climb back on their horses, Cao Jun was already close by!
I saw Zhang Liao, Cao Chun, Xian Yufu and other generals waving their weapons and charging at the Wuhuan people wantonly!
The Wuhuan people, who were in an irregular formation, were unable to organize a decent resistance under the fierce charge and beating of Cao Jun, and were forced to retreat continuously.
But this will inevitably cause chaos!
"Hold on! Hold on!"
Tadun Shanyu used the riding whip in his hand to beat the Wuhuan people running around.
But it has no effect at all!
He could only watch helplessly as his army was dashed to pieces by Zhang Liao and the others!
