A few moments,
Xiao Gui rode his horse to the front of Zhang Jin, the general of the army, cupped his hands and said:
"General Qi, a small group of enemy troops was discovered a mile away, and has been completely wiped out by his subordinates."
Zhang Jin nodded slightly and said eagerly:
"Have you heard any news about the enemy?"
"Reporting to the general, the enemy army has a total of 4,800 people, and the leader is the Tuyuhun forward general, Murong Bo."
"The enemy troops marched towards the east gate of Dingxi City two-quarters of an hour ago."
At this moment, another scout rushed over with an anxious look, and shouted from a distance:
"General, it's not good, the enemy is massacring at the east gate and will soon invade Dingxi City."
Zhang Jin was shocked when he heard this. At this time, he couldn't care less. We were outnumbered. He waved the horse in his hand and shouted to the left and right:
"Generals, listen to your orders."
All the captains roared angrily:
"The end will be here."
Zhang Jin held the horse in hand, pointed straight ahead, and shouted:
"Follow me and kill the thieves, and your armed guards will be victorious."
After saying this, Zhang Jin rushed out immediately.
All the captains did not dare to neglect, they suddenly clamped the horse's belly and rushed out.
"Youwuwei, ten thousand victories."
.......
At this time, in the doorway of the east gate of Dingxi City, there were loud shouts of killing.
The doorway was now filled with corpses, so the east city gate could not be closed for a long time.
Because of this, Tuyuhun's cavalry could only dismount and fight on foot.
So the two sides started fighting in the doorway.
Although there were fewer soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, they were better at infantry fighting. In addition, every soldier in the Tang Dynasty wore leather armor, so at the beginning, the cavalry was suppressing Tuyuhun's cavalry.
It's just that Murong Bo from Tuyuhun is not an easy person, and he quickly came up with an idea.
So he sent out archers from the army to attack the Tang army from a distance.
In addition, Murong Bo also sent people to clean up the corpses at the city gate.
With long-range strikes, Tuyuhun's "infantry" finally gained the upper hand and defeated the Tang army steadily.
At this time, inside the doorway, Commander Zhang Xiaojing was already covered in blood, and his originally black armor had been dyed bright red.
He swung the sword vigorously and chopped down another barbarian in two or two strokes.
Outside the city gate,
Murong Bo, who was riding on a tall horse, had long discovered the specialness of Zhang Xiaojing's armor and guessed that he was a general of the Tang Dynasty.
I originally thought that by letting the sons kill this Tang general, they would gain more military exploits.
Unexpectedly, after the General of the Tang Dynasty arrived, not long after the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty appeared at the top of Dingxi City.
And at this moment, they had already started throwing stones at the city.
Although these stones did little harm to them, they also caused them a lot of trouble.
At least their archers could no longer suppress the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty like before.
So after Zhang Xiaojing killed another person, Murong Bo narrowed his eyes and planned to solve this problem himself.
Murong Bo skillfully took off the long bow from the horse's back and drew out an arrow from his back.
When bending the bow and setting up an arrow, the movements are done in one go, as smoothly as clouds and water.
A sharp arrow flew towards Zhang Xiaojing. The moment he hit the barbarian, it pierced into his shoulder.
Seeing this, the personal guard stepped forward and stood in front of Zhang Xiaojing. After parrying the scimitar struck by a barbarian, the personal guard yelled:
"Captain, you are injured. Get out quickly. There are subordinates and brothers here, and we will never let the barbarians attack."
Zhang Xiaojing gritted his teeth and reached out to pull out the arrow from his shoulder.
"ah!"
"Stop talking nonsense and fend off the enemy."
After speaking, Zhang Xiaojing raised his sword again and rushed towards the barbarians.
Murong Bo frowned slightly when he saw this, and was about to pick up his bow and arrow and shoot again.
At this moment, a centurion from Tuyuhun ran towards Murong Bo quickly.
"General, General, we found three thousand Qingqi from the Tang Dynasty fifteen miles away. They are rushing towards our army at this time."
Murong Bo was stunned for a moment and said anxiously:
"Are you sure there are only three thousand Qingqi?"
The centurion looked troubled when he heard this.
Two quarters of an hour ago, he suddenly remembered that the scouts sent out at noon had not returned yet. During the period of caution, he sent out a few more scouts.
In the end, only one scout ran back injured and told him the shocking news.
At this time, the centurion looked at the general, who looked increasingly unkind, gritted his teeth, nodded and said:
"My subordinates pledged their lives for only three thousand."
Murong Bo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and looked at the centurion with much softer eyes.
At this time, a middle-aged man with a scar on his face got off his horse and knelt on the ground.
"General, your most loyal servant, I am willing to lead a thousand cavalry to teach those Tang troops who don't know the heights of the sky."
Murong Bo nodded slightly and laughed:
"Lasihu, you are indeed the most heroic warrior of our clan."
"Well, I will give you a chance to show off. I will order you to personally command two thousand cavalry to destroy this enemy force."
Lashihu was overjoyed when he heard this, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and shouted:
"Thank you, General. Lassi Tiger will definitely not disappoint his master."
After Laxihu led the two thousand Qingqi away, Murong Bo glanced in the direction of the city gate with dark eyes.
He shouted at the messenger:
"It is said that I have ordered that the first person to attack Dingxi City will be promoted to five levels in a row and be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and a Tang Dynasty girl in her thirties."
"The first hundred who attack Dingxi City will be promoted to two levels in a row and will be rewarded with ten gold coins and two Tang women."
"I can guarantee now that as long as Dingxi City is captured today, except for the Zheng family, Li family, Wang family, and Cui family, the rest of the families in the city will be at your disposal. There will be no military law or curfew in Dingxi City tonight. You and others will be at your disposal. Take and ask.”
As soon as these words came out, Tuyuhun's army immediately became excited, their eyes glowed green, and they rushed toward the city gate like crazy.
Murong Bo looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction.
Yes, he was able to get to where he is today not just because of his surname.
And his "loving soldiers as sons".
To sum it up, it’s just one sentence:
If you want others to sacrifice their lives for you, you have to give them enough money to sacrifice their lives.
.......
In the city gate cave, Zhang Xiaojing, the captain of the Zhechong Prefecture, was breathing heavily, looking at the brothers who fell one after another beside him, his eyes were about to burst.
Zhang Xiaojing turned his head and took a look. Not far behind him, the young faces showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
After he raised his sword and chopped down an enemy, the grief and anger in his heart reached its peak.
His body swayed, Zhang Xiaojing's eyes were splitting as he looked at the bloody world in front of him and at the enemies who were coming one after another.
Using the last bit of strength in his body, he roared:
"At the 33rd turn of Longyou Road, rush to the mansion and die without regrets!"
"Don't retreat!"
"Kill, kill, kill."
These words instantly ignited the blood of the young soldiers behind them. They waved their swords one by one, rushed towards the enemy, and shouted:
"On the Longyou Road of the Tang Dynasty, on the 33rd day, I rushed to the mansion, and I will die without regrets!"
"Don't retreat!"
"kill...."
Amidst roars, the most brutal battle in Dingxi City began.
One by one, fresh lives continued to fall into the pool of blood, and new people would soon fill them. Even if their leader had fallen, they never retreated a step.
Just because in the city gate, there are always voices, either childish or strong, echoing.
"On the Longyou Road of the Tang Dynasty, I rushed to the mansion at the thirty-third turn, and I will die without regrets."
"No retreat, no retreat, no retreat."
