Royal Road

Hearing the drum sound echoing in his ears, Liang Feng seemed to have a tendon pulled out of his body, and he almost couldn't stand steady.

They defended the city for three days. Two thousand young men were killed in battle and six hundred were killed, and the number of wounded soldiers was unknown. Even the Ci Shifu conscripted a group of people in the city, and put on the wall, just to resist the attack like the tide.

When will the reinforcements arrive? Liang Feng is also not clear. At the head of the melee, he couldn't accurately grasp the battle opportunities, let alone predict Yi Yan's tactics. But he never gave up for a minute. Because Liang Feng believes that Yi Yan will bring him hope of victory at the most appropriate time.

Just so moment.

"Let the arrow! Let the arrow!" Ge Hong shouted, and the bow and arrow in his hand were pulled to the extreme. Those enemies who fell down the ladder in embarrassment and turned to escape are simply targets of activity, allowing them to slaughter easily.

On the city's head, as long as they can move, whether they can shoot arrows or not, they all draw their bows. Under the city wall, the Yongrui camp led by Zhang He also began to fight freely. The gun array is no longer the most powerful weapon. In the case of the enemy's disintegration, you just need to rush up and raise your sword and gun to reap your lives.

There are also the cavalry surrounding the enemy’s big tent, several times more terrifying than the most fierce Xianbei. Countless horses galloping in the enemy's formation, every knife, every arrow can take a life. The Wusun Ma, who was extremely horselike, was even more bloody, as if wearing a scarlet jersey.

A cold light flashed, and a cavalry shouted loudly.

"The enemy chief gives the leader!"

The shout was like thunder that pierced the sky, overwhelming the rumbling drums. Above the city, under the city wall, everyone cheered. These three days of fierce battle, hundreds of casualties, finally won in exchange for victory. A big victory!

Liang Feng held on to the arrow but also stabilized his body that was about to fall. Everything disappeared from his ears, and only that figure remained in his eyes. With a **** human head in one hand and a silver blade in the other, he rode on the blood-stained horse.

So far apart, he seemed to be able to see the look on the human face. Cold, fierce, full of hostility, and anxious anger.

The enemy chief gave the lead, and the two battalions began the pursuit. Facing the defeated enemy army is no longer a battle, but a slaughter on one side. Liang Feng just stood on the city, holding on to the cold city wall, looking at the **** battlefield below. In the depths of the soul, following the footsteps of horseshoes, galloping over the wilderness.

I don't know how long it took, the drums stopped, and the pursuers returned slowly. At this time, he should order the opening of the city gate and welcome back the group of heroes who defeated the 8,000 enemy army with less than 4,000 soldiers and horses, and even included 2,000 Xianbei's elite horsemen. But Liang Feng didn't. On the contrary, he slowly raised his hand and pointed to the southwest.

"Bring the army back to Jinyang!"

He spoke. But that volume is far from enough to reach the city. Even this action may be missed. There are so many figures on the city wall. How can you see clearly when you are so far apart?

However, the cavalry rushing towards the city stopped, and the man in the middle of the team tossed his hand, and a head fell into the blood-soaked mud. That is Liu Hu's head. Pressing on his chest with his free hand, the man made a military salute to the Liang Mansion. Without looking back, he headed towards Lishi.

Behind him, Zhang He also began to retreat, but instead of following the cavalry, he rushed towards the city.

He understood what he meant.

The last tension in Liang Feng's heart also disappeared, and his figure flickered, almost falling. I don't know when, Ge Hong has already come behind him and held his shoulders: "The envoy!"

Liang Feng stood firm, squeezed his palms hard, and then slowed down, and said in a low voice, "It's okay. Remove the sandbags inside the city gate and welcome General Zhang and the others back to the city. Clean the city and comfort the people. The army is very good. Will return soon."

"My envoy, we have won!" Ge Hong's voice also added a little bit of uncontrollable joy.

However, there were no such waves in Liang Feng's voice. He lightly nodded: "Well, we won."

A fight to survive, a big victory.

※

In just two days, Linghusheng's hair was only half white. It is good to stabilize the military spirit, but it is still not easy to retreat under the enemy's eyelids. To prevent the cavalry from coming, be alert to attack the camp at night, and worry about whether your family’s horse will suddenly collapse and the camp will rebel. It was like a group of lambs trembling as they walked and stopped, guarding against the wolves following behind.

This time the Xiongnu sent Qingqi, which proved that the other party would not have enough food and grass. Lishi has been deserted for so long, and it is estimated that it will not be able to supply the army. In two or three days at most, the enemy army will definitely attack again, and even dispatch Liu Huzhong from Jinyang Siege to give them a fatal blow.

However, no matter how worried he is, there is nothing he can do. The army can't go fast anymore, let alone return to Jinyang unsuspectingly. Did that group of Shangdang soldiers save the city? If it is unstoppable, how to deal with it?

However, after two days of fear, Kuaima flew in from Jinyang with news.

"Jinyang makes the siege, and Liu Hu is the leader?!" Linghu Sheng stood up abruptly, "What you said is true?!"

"It's true!" The messenger's tired face was pale, but his voice was passionate, "General Yi has led cavalry to come! The three cities of Jingling, Zhongdu, and Wuxian have also been taken back!"

"Good! Good!" Linghusheng yelled hello twice, only to feel that his shoulders were lightened by a few points. This Yi Yanguo is really a talent! How many soldiers and horses did the Shangdang have? He was able to defeat Liu Hu's 10,000 enemy soldiers and even took the opponent's head!

As long as the cavalry arrives, the pressure from the opposing Huns will be self-defeating. They will be able to return to Jinyang smoothly!

It's all due to the ambassador of Liang!

"Pass this news to the three armies! Set up camp today and wait for General Yi to arrive!"

Linghu got the news here, but Liu Cong was a little anxious over there. The messenger has already been sent out, why haven't the group of Xianbei sent troops yet? Isn't Liu Hu not wanting to waste his own forces, ready to concentrate on attacking Jinyang? Is Jinyang about to be breached?

The thought of this possibility made his heart very anxious. What is the victory of the Jin army, the victory is the greatest achievement. Could it be that he came to Bingzhou this time, but returned without success?

However, the next day, unexpected news came before him.

"Reinforcements came from the Jin army? Or cavalry?!" Liu Cong asked Lingling incredulously.

Cavalry, and the state does have. Isn’t it the one I met in Shanghai? If the Xianbei meet that cavalry, will they win or lose?

Soon, he knew the answer.

The soldiers and horses of Jinyang City were defeated, Liu Hu was killed, and the Xianbei cavalry were slaughtered clean. Looking at the battle report in front of him, Liu Cong was so angry that he couldn't speak. How many soldiers does Jinyang have? How could it be like this? ! Even if Baibu Xianbei is just another part of Xianbei, it won't be a waste of money, right? !

Unexpectedly, this is not the end. When he saw the last sentence, the shabby hair on Liu Cong's back stood up: "The three cities of Jingling, Zhongdu, and Wuxian were seized...it's bad!"

When were these three cities shot down? I think it will not be after Jinyang is surrounded. So in other words, at the same time that the Jin army sent troops away from the stone, there was a team of troops going to the Jingling and seizing the city in a battle. So what is the purpose of sending this army? And what kind of existence is the empty Jinyang City?

Maybe there are bait on both sides, waiting for them to be hooked!

"Withdraw troops!" Liu Cong led the way without hesitation.

"General! The Jin army is at the end of the battle, why not attack again..." some subordinates persuaded.

"The end of the crossbow?" Liu Cong sneered, "I'm afraid that the surname Liang had calculated it early. Show weakness and lure the enemy, and then annihilate it in one fell swoop. It's a good one to wait for work! If this battle continues, it will be a waste of troops, Jinyang has no hope. Immediately. withdraw troops!"

He personally fought with Liang Zixi's men and horses, and he knew the unpredictability of that man's use of soldiers. Now that three cities have been lost, Jinyang has also cleared the siege and sent cavalry to help out. If you are not careful, you might be caught in the other party's trap and ruin your team for nothing. He has already held Lishi, why bother?

It's just that this little contribution is simply not worthy of this troop dispatch.

With a sullen expression, Liu Cong squeezed the whip in his hand. This Liang Zixi is really his destined opponent. It's just that next time, I won't let him go so easily.

"The Xiongnu retired!" Standing in front of the camp, Linghusheng's eyes beamed, and his voice was a little bit overwhelming.

Unexpectedly, just the addition of such a cavalry made the Huns retreat. It seems that the news of Jinyang's relief has also spread. If there is no envoy to prepare in advance, how can such a big victory come?

"Thanks to General Yi for the relief this time! If it weren't for this, I'm afraid we would lose it." Turning around, Linghusheng said to the young general standing beside him.

I don't know how many enemies were killed the day before. This cavalry came in blood, and the whole body was murderous. However, such a strong cavalry came to support, which is extraordinary for the stability of the army. After learning the news of Jinyang's relief, the whole army cheered up. If the enemy hadn't retreated early, it would be okay to fight another battle!

"General Linghu did not let the army collapse. It is a great achievement. Returning to Jinyang will make you happy." Yi Yan's voice was flat, but what he said made Linghusheng's heart warm.

Yes, without him and nephew desperately cage the soldiers, how could it be like now? It must be known that they have lost more than 3,000 people, and a little more, they will be on the verge of defeat. Even if it is a soldier of a hundred battles, it is difficult to hold the formation if it is folded by a fifth. Not to mention that their army was broken, the handsome flag fell, and even the main general died in a clean situation. To be able to persevere is really doing my best.

With a long sigh, Linghu Sheng said, "I only hope that next time, I can fight side by side with General Yi."

This is not only a compliment, but also a surrender. Yi Yan's heart is also loose, victory is the second best. It is the result that the lord needs most to return to the heart of the state. As for Pei Dun's stilettos, they were not in vain at all. There was a flash of hostility in his eyes, and Yi Yan cleared up his expression: "Also ask General Linghu to order to return to the division."

Without the enemy following, there are more than 10,000 people left, dragging the exhaustion after the war and the joy of surviving, they are ready to go back to Jinyang!
