"There is an ambush! Protect the prince!" As soon as a general beside King Huai took out his sword from his waist, he was shot in the throat by an arrow and fell off his horse.
King Huai was startled. He turned around and saw a white-robed general bending his bow and arrow, aiming at the general beside him.
Every time the white-robed general shoots an arrow, a general falls down beside him. It can be said that every arrow pierces the Yangtze with a hundred steps.
"There are such fierce generals in Beiyan?" King Huai's eyes widened. This arrow technique was so accurate.
"Li Ri, didn't you say that all the Xuanjia troops went to fight against the Xiongnu? Where did these Xuanjia troops come from? This king has suffered a lot from you this time!" King Xiang pointed at King Huai and roared.
"Why the hell did I harm you? I didn't force you to come here. Instead of barking here, you might as well run away!"
King Huai didn't care about anything else, turned his horse's head and ran towards Huaizhou.
When Xue Rengui saw King Huai running away, he immediately pulled out Fang Tian's painted halberd on the ground and chased after him: "Your Majesty has an order to capture King Xiang and King Huai alive and kill him!"
King Xiang was also pale at this time, and he was panicking. He fell off his horse before he could run very far, and his whole body was shaking with fear.
The two kings' troops were mainly infantry, with only a few thousand cavalry. In addition, this was a plain area, and the two kings' team was too long to be able to gather together for a while.
Being rushed by the Xuanjia Army, the two kings' 150,000-strong army abandoned their armor and just ran away without any resistance. The battlefield soon became a one-sided massacre!
Before King Xiang, who was paralyzed on the ground, could react, he was knocked unconscious by a punch from Qianhu of the Xuanjia Army. He was tied up and thrown on the horse.
After a while, Xue Rengui also returned holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, and also carried the unconscious King Huai in his hand.
"Your Majesty has an order. No intruders should be left alive. The entire army should disperse with flags as units!"
Xue Rengui gave an order, and the Xuanjia army immediately dispersed, with fifty people under one banner, and began to hunt down the fleeing enemy troops.
On the hilltop in the distance, the old eunuch Song De who was riding a horse slowly stopped. Looking at the battlefield below, Song De couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Fortunately, in order to avoid anyone obstructing his journey to Beiyan to deliver the decree, he took the mountain road instead of the official road, otherwise he would have died in the rebel army.
Unexpectedly, King Xiang and King Huai secretly withdrew their troops and actually had the idea of Bei Yan. Fortunately, Bei Yan was well prepared and ambushed the two kings here.
The black-armored cavalry must be the Xuanjia Army. They are indeed a majestic and elite division. If the imperial court can get the help of this army, they will definitely be able to challenge the King of Pingnan.
Looking at the endless mountain road ahead, Song De wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued to move forward.
As the general manager of the Imperial Household, he had a long and arduous mission to go to Beiyan to deliver the decree. He just didn't know if Yang Xun would be willing to send troops south.
Thinking of the new emperor Li Miaoyin, Song De couldn't help but sigh. He had watched Li Miaoyin grow up. This girl had really suffered a lot. I hope Yang Xun wouldn't let her down!
…
As night fell, there was silence on the Tianmenguan city wall.
The Xiongnu's 30,000 vanguard troops had slowly moved over under the cover of night, and were less than 300 meters away from the Tianmenguan city wall.
Latuo looked up at Tianmen Pass, and couldn't help but smile. There was no movement at all on the top of the city.
I'm afraid that the young prince won the battle and is still holding a celebration banquet at this time, right? As expected, Chanyu is as good at predicting events as he is!
For hundreds of years, the Xiongnu has never crossed the Tianmen Pass. Tonight is the moment when he will become famous in the battle of Latuo!
"Boohoo!"
Just when Latuo was imagining how many women he would rob after breaking the barrier, a sound broke through the air.
Before La Tuo could react, the soldiers around him fell to the ground. A closer look revealed that these soldiers were all covered with arrows.
At the same time, bonfires were lit on the walls of Tianmen Pass, lighting up the entire land, and the 30,000 Huns soldiers were completely exposed to the rain of arrows.
"Has it been discovered?"
Latuo gritted his teeth, so what if he was discovered, he would definitely break through Tianmen Pass today!
"Come on, if anyone breaks into Tianmen Pass, I will reward him with five women!"
For a moment, the Huns soldiers rushed towards Tianmen Pass as if they were crazy!
Behind the 30,000 Xiongnu vanguard troops was the neatly arranged main force of the Xiongnu. At this time, they were also approaching Tianmen Pass.
Just as Jiang Wei expected, the Xiongnu planned to attack with all their troops and storm Tianmen Pass!
The gate of heaven was closed, and Yang Xun looked at the Hun soldiers rushing in like a tide, without any mercy on his face.
At this time, in addition to the crossbowmen who were constantly shooting, 20,000 heavily armored Euphorbia warriors had already climbed onto the city wall, and the rest were on standby in the city, ready to fill the gaps at any time.
The Hun soldiers outside the city were poorly equipped, and some even had no weapons. They rushed forward with a wooden stick.
Yang Xun knew that the Xiongnu used the few equipment on their cavalry. It would be good for these infantry to have swords.
With such a configuration, even if the Euphorbia stood and chopped down for these people, it would take several days and nights, right?
Yang Xun really couldn't understand, how could he lose this battle?
Seeing the Xiongnu soldiers pushing the siege truck, Yang Xun quickly shouted: "Liao Hua, you lead 10,000 euphorbia soldiers and are responsible for guarding the city gate."
"General, I obey!" Liao Hua knelt down to accept the order and hurried away.
Although Yang Xun had 5,000 crossbowmen and artifacts like the Zhuge Liannu, there were still many Huns who rushed under the city wall because they were numerous and fearless of death.
With the support of these Xiongnu soldiers, the siege vehicle quickly arrived outside the city gate. The Xiongnu soldiers quickly held their shields and began to hit the city gate with the logs of the siege vehicle.
Although the city gate had been reinforced, it could not withstand the impact of the logs. In less than half an hour, the city gate was knocked open.
Seeing that the city gate was wide open, the Hun cavalry in the rear immediately launched a charge and rushed into the city gate, while the infantry climbed up the ladder and planned to occupy the city wall.
However, Liao Hua had been waiting behind the city gate for a long time. The moment the city gate broke through, the Euphorbia soldiers formed a formation to attack it. The first batch of Huns cavalry who rushed in were immediately stabbed to the point where they fell on their backs, and screams could not be heard.
Just like before, when the Hun cavalry attacked the Euphorbia phalanx head-on, they were like moths flying into a flame, completely losing their lives.
There were more and more corpses piled up at the city gate, and the ground was dyed red with blood. The entire battlefield was like a meat grinder, and people were dying every moment.
The infantry who climbed up the ladder were not much better. The Euphorbia warriors had three-meter-long halberds in their hands. The Huns soldiers were stabbed down as soon as they climbed onto the city wall, and even the Euphorbia warriors' hair was not touched.
This scene was naturally seen by Burker.
He saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, why was this stupid Euphorbia so difficult to deal with?
Just when Burkle was at a loss what to do, the camp behind him suddenly burst into flames, and the fire jumped dozens of meters.
Burke was suddenly startled, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
