Western Hills.
The war breaks out!
Peace is not without a little temper.
His two soldiers, totaling 10,000 cavalry, were lost in Su Yang's hands.
If there were a large number of Yan troops hiding in Xishan, then it would be a failure, and Ping'an would not be so angry.
After all, it was his poor decision-making that caused Sun Cheng and Huo'er to lose their lives in vain.
However, the reality is exactly the opposite!
Where does your small Yan army, which relies on the power of firearms, have the courage to take the initiative?
Do you really think this general is a soft persimmon?
Following Ping An's order, the Southern Army immediately launched an attack.
Boom, boom, boom!
The rapid sound of war drums resounded throughout the world, tearing the entire night apart and echoing within hundreds of miles. Even the storm woke up the Xishan army.
Su Yang immediately got up from the bed. Fortunately, he didn't take off his armor and rushed out.
Xu Xiang and Jia Yi also rushed over. Without saying anything, everyone rushed directly to the watchtower on the mountainside.
Looking at the densely packed tens of thousands of Confederate troops at the foot of the mountain, Su Yang looked very ugly.
This time, it was his decision that made the mistake.
Ping An was indeed Ping An. From the battlefield alone, he could see that his troops were empty, so he accelerated his march and caught Su Yang by surprise.
Is this the level of the famous general Jingnan?
Su Yang smiled, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Ping An, Ping An, if I drag you here, will the difficulty of the Jingnan battle be reduced?
He, the famous general of Jingnan, was mediocre in the first half of his life, but he shined in the battle of Jingnan.
Since Ping'an participated in the campaign as a vanguard in the first year of Jianwen, he has repeatedly defeated the Yan army in Baigouhe, Shanjiaqiao, Yangcun and other places. He killed several Yan army generals such as Wang Zhen and defeated Yan generals Fang Kuan and Chen. Seven people, including Heng, Xue Lu, and Li Bin, captured Xue Lu and almost stabbed Zhu Di to death twice. No one among the Yan generals dared to block his attack. He was famous and had countless military exploits. Throughout the Jingnan Campaign, Zhu Di fought against the Southern Army many times. In the war, he is invincible, but he will only be defeated when facing Ping An and Sheng Yong.
This is why Zhu Di hates him so much.
Su Yang is a layman, he is also greedy for life and afraid of death, and he also cherishes his life.
But just because he is an ordinary person, Su Yang's heart is also fleshy. He cannot abandon these ordinary workers in Xishan and escape alone to survive.
If he really did this, he would have no face to see Zhu Wanqiu, his little wife, and he would be unable to hold his head high for the rest of his life!
So Su Yang didn't leave and directly attracted the Ping An army.
One drink and one peck, it was already decided.
Perhaps from the moment Su Yang produced anthracite coal to benefit the people, he was destined to be involved in this extremely bloody battle of peace, and he would never be able to escape.
But Su Yang didn't regret it, and was even slightly excited.
What an honor it is to fight against a famous general!
"Send my military order and prepare to fight to the death!"
Neither Xu Xiang nor Jia Yi tried to persuade him, but looked at Su Yang with enthusiasm.
"Fight to the death!"
The soldiers also raised their fists and shouted in unison: "Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"
The entire Xishan Mountain is now facing a desperate situation. The densely packed tens of thousands of Confederate troops at the foot of the mountain have surrounded and blocked the entire Xishan Mountain.
If no reinforcements come to save them, they will have only one fate, death!
All soldiers know this truth.
But so what?
Even if the young master doesn't care about life and death, how can they, humble warriors, abandon their brothers and run away alone?
Only fight to the death!
The morale of the military, which should have collapsed in the desperate situation, was unexpectedly and extremely high at this moment!
Because Su Yang was alone, it was like a spark splashed into a powder keg and exploded instantly.
Su Yang clearly felt the blazing heat wave coming towards him.
"They are all my good sons and daughters, Yan Jun!"
"They are all my brothers, Su Yang!"
"If we don't die in this battle, Su will drink and chat with all the brothers until we get drunk and we won't come back!"
Xu Xiang led the soldiers to the foot of the mountain and left a heroic message.
"Young master, you need to prepare a few carts of drinks. There is too little to drink!"
"My sons, make great achievements today. Come and kill with me!"
A bloody battle broke out.
At the same time, outside Peking City.
After ten days of bloody offensive and defensive battles, the entire city of Beiping was completely reduced to a meat grinding ground.
There were densely packed corpses piled under the city wall, like hills.
Mountains of corpses and rivers of blood flowed.
Zhu Gaochi was wearing iron armor and stood at the top of the city with red eyes.
On the side, Princess Yan Xu Miaoyun's face turned a little pale, and there was a wound on her arm that was deep enough to show the bone, and there was faint blood flowing out.
Not long ago, the Confederate army suddenly stepped up its offensive, looking like it was going to accomplish everything in one battle.
The defenders were caught off guard by the suddenly crazy Confederate soldiers. A large number of brave Confederate soldiers climbed to the top of the city by climbing ladders.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Xu Miaoyun personally led the Yan Prince's personal guards to charge at the top of the city, and then he was able to defend the top of the city.
Once the city is captured and the city gates are opened by the Confederate Army, the city of Beiping will be completely destroyed.
Fortunately, Xu Miaoyun took action in time and charged into the battle with Princess Yan, stabilizing the morale of the Yan army and thus able to resolve the crisis.
The enemy troops retreated like a tide, leaving corpses everywhere.
Both sides paid an extremely heavy price!
But both sides have no way out!
Zhu Gaochi frowned tightly as he listened to the deputy general's report.
The casualties are too great!
The 40,000 defenders have been fighting fiercely until now, with more than 20,000 people killed and more than 10,000 injured.
That means that there are only less than 10,000 soldiers left who are capable of fighting!
In addition, the food and supplies in Beiping City are about to run out, especially strategic materials such as arrows, logs, and rolling stones, which have been used up three days ago.
In other words, the Peiping defenders have reached their limit!
If King Zhu Di of Yan does not return aid, it will only be a matter of time before the city of Beiping is destroyed!
After Zhu Gaochi listened quietly, he immediately issued a gag order.
The quartermaster also understood what the prince meant. If this news spreads, without the enemy troops attacking the city again, the Peiping defenders would mutiny, blow up the camp, and kill each other.
"Brother, can we... hold on?"
Zhu Gaosui walked over covered in blood and looked slightly pale.
He, the youngest, is not as brave as Zhu Gaoxu, but he has also been in the army since he was a child, so he has long been used to fighting on the battlefield.
But Zhu Gaosui was keenly aware that Beiping City was in danger.
Although there is no evidence for this unfounded feeling, it is very possible.
Zhu Gaochi sighed and patted his shoulder.
"Do your best and obey fate!"
"If Beiping is lost, the whole Yan army will be ruined!"
"So we would rather die than fight until the last moment to defend Beiping City for our father!"
"The city is alive but the people are there, but the city is destroyed and people are dead!"
Hearing his words, Zhu Gaosui's face turned pale.
"If I had known earlier, I should have stayed in Xishan..."
"You know nothing!" Zhu Gaochi scolded angrily: "Do you think Xishan has really become a paradise?"
"The secret guards have sent news that Ping'an has led an army of 40,000 to surround the entire Xishan Mountain, and Su Yang is fighting them desperately!"
"What? Brother, why are you..." Zhu Gaosui panicked, his face full of horror.
There are 40,000 troops, the famous generals are safe, and there are only a few thousand people in Xishan. How can Su Yang resist?
"Su Yang is trying his best, and so are we. When my father goes to Daning, why is he risking his own life?"
Zhu Gaochi looked firmly in the direction of Xishan subconsciously.
"Su Yang, you must hold on!"
Beiping is in a desperate situation, Xishan is in a desperate situation, Father, Father, where are you?
