Royal Road - Chapter 245

[Chapter 244 | City]

Fukouxing is located between Shenlu Mountain and Fushan Mountain, and it is a long and narrow valley formed by the meandering flow of the Fuyang River.

Therefore, the terrain of this land is flatter than other places, and Wei Wu once set up a grain road here.

From this Xingdong, it can help Zhao and Wei, and it has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

At this moment, there are soldiers in Xingdao, and they are still a cavalry rushing forward.

Four thousand horses almost filled the river valley. In winter, the river bank was cold and slippery. The horses could not run too fast.

It’s been two days since the horse was fast, and both people and horses have reached the point of exhaustion.

But even so, this team still did not have any stagnation, like a silent pack of wolves, with awe-inspiring murderous intent.

“General, the front is Fukou Pass.”

Yi Yan narrowed his eyes and looked forward.

The not tall city gate stood in the twilight, looking a little hazy.

“Go to Guanxia, set up camp and rest.” He ordered.

He traveled nearly five hundred miles in three days, which is an unimaginable number for any army.

Tiger Wolf Camp now doesn’t have enough horses, so it’s impossible for one person to ride two horses. Even these durable Xiongnu horses are a little bit laborious.

Not to mention horseback riding.

A night’s rest is imperative.

Until tomorrow morning, it will be time to march in a big way.

Hearing the order, the soldiers immediately cheered up.

The training of the tiger and wolf battalion was more severe than the other two battalions, and these cavalrymen considered themselves to be the best of the best.

But even so, the long journey almost drained their physical strength.

If it weren’t for the strict military discipline, and the coach eating with them, it would be really hard to resist.

With the goal, the last part of the road went fast, and it didn’t take long to come to the bottom of the city.

The guards here are naturally Bingzhou troops, and they have already received military orders and have prepared their tents to eat.

Fukou Xing is much more spacious than other Xingdao, and thousands of soldiers and horses can barely settle down in camp.

Yiyan jumped off the horse, took out a handful of beans with salt, and fed it to Aiju.

Even the Wusun Liangma, who ran more than 100 miles for two days in a row, was exhausted day by day.

With a snort, it cuddled its owner as if it was coquettish, and chewed up its snacks.

Gently stroked the mane on the horse’s back, Yi Yan walked back to the tent and arranged for the siege of the city tomorrow.

When several officers saw Yi Yan’s appearance, they were deeply admired.

How can General Yi maintain such energy?

Could it be that he is really invincible, but the incarnation of the God of War?

Only Wang Long, who had been following Yiyan all the time, was a little muttered in his heart.

It’s terrifying that his house is cold, how could it be like this on weekdays?

But this point, Wang Long will not talk nonsense.

The cavalry attacked the city, relying on its unpreparedness.

Now that they have taken the lead, they really don’t need to make any arrangements.

Without a lot of effort, this pre-war meeting came to an end.

Taking advantage of Yi Yan’s departure, Wang Long leaned over and asked in a low voice, “General, is there anything I need to remember about tomorrow’s war?”

Yi Yan looked over coldly: “Kill all the bandits and don’t hurt the people. .”

What kind of advice is this?

When was the war not like this?

However, before he could ask again, Yi Yan had already turned around, returned to his mount, and lay down on the ground in his clothes.

The armor was cold and heavy in the winter night, but he had no plans to remove it, so he closed his eyes.

Wang Long scratched his head when he saw the coach’s appearance that strangers were not allowed to enter.

Forget it, as long as you return with a big victory, you will get better after all, right?

After the sentry night was arranged, Wang Long also returned to his camp, and soon fell asleep.

※

In the distance, there is a woman’s scream.

I don’t know what happened, but the voice was hysterical and chilled down my spine.

But Shi Le didn’t care.

Which team of Erlang is looking for fun, right?

After fighting for so long, he didn’t mind letting the soldiers relax and enjoy the “victory results”.

It has been five days since he entered Ye City. According to reason, he should leave as soon as possible.

But not to mention the soldiers below, even Ji Sang couldn’t help but be dazzled by this magnificent city.

The Wei Palace in the old days was so gorgeous that it was beyond imagination. Sima Teng didn’t have time to remove the property in the palace. Just the drapery hanging in the palace, Lingluo, didn’t know the value.

This is the city of Ye that was once looted by the Duan Xianbei. Who can imagine how majestic it looked back then?

If you have such a city, you will not live this life in vain!

Not to mention Ji Sang, even Shi Le had such an idea in his heart.

It’s just that he knew that his family’s foundation was insufficient, and he was far from being able to occupy Yecheng.

The best way is to loot the property in the city and pat the butt to retreat.

It’s a pity that there aren’t enough families in the city. If you can kill more people, it will be happy.

There was a cruel look on that typical Hu people face.

Shi Le did not like those high-ranking officials and nobles, and those people would never treat alien races like them as human beings.

Back then, he was like an ox and horse, he was taken by Sima Teng and bought into Yanzhou. If it wasn’t for his master Shi Huan, he might have been buried in a foreign land.

After all, he is also the son of the tribe’s handsome man, but because he is a Jie, he has to endure such humiliation?

Schiller didn’t think so.

Just by looking at Sima Teng’s extremely useless appearance, he knew that this world should be replaced by another person.

But the benefactor Ji Sang, seems to be missing something?

Maybe after leaving Yecheng, he should advise the commander and defect to Han?

Liu Yuan has now occupied Hedong, and his momentum is really not small.

To vote for him may have a better future than hanging under the banner of the pseudo-emperor Sima Ying.

The continuous screaming stopped abruptly, Shi Le raised his eyebrows, he had been in this city long enough, and it was time to leave.

“General Shi!” A personal soldier suddenly rushed into the courtyard with a sullen expression, “An enemy has attacked Yecheng!”

“What?” Shi Le was startled, “Is it a soldier from Youzhou?”

“No! Cong Fu The people

who came from Kou Xing were all light cavalry!”

Oops, it’s actually Bingzhou soldiers!

Shi Le said sternly: “Quickly order the troops, and send someone to find the general. It’s time to withdraw the troops!”

He had also heard that Bingzhou’s troops and horses were powerful.

Just how could this group of people come so quickly?

!

But Shiledo couldn’t help thinking about it.

The 4,000 cavalry rushed in like a dark tide.

Just because the looting army was distracted, how could those bandit soldiers stop the armored cavalry?

The city gate was immediately breached, the cavalry rushed into the city and started street fighting!

It stands to reason that street fighting is always more beneficial to the defensive side.

But this group of rogues were completely unprepared, and the burning, killing, and looting drained their morale and energy.

As if destroying the dead, the tiger and wolf battalion broke through the outer defense line and killed the handsome tent parked near the palace.

“General! I can’t stop it!” Shi Le rode on his horse and shouted to Ji Sang, “Why don’t you divide your troops and rush out of the city!

”

There are few enemy troops, so it is not advisable to divide troops, and must be gathered together.

If they were divided into several teams and fled, the enemy might not be able to tell which one was the central army.

Ji Sang had just climbed off the woman’s body. He drank too much, and his mind was a little unclear. How could he tell these things apart?

Under the command of Shi Le, the Chinese army began to break through to the South Gate.

Because he was a herdsman, there were quite a few horses and soldiers in this band of bandits. At this moment, they gave up their treasures and luggage, and they escaped quickly.

However, I don’t know if the other party had a plan, or if the blind cat ran into the dead mouse and met the guards at the gate of the city!

“Kill it out!” Shi Le fiercely pulled out his saber and shouted loudly.

They had just killed Sima Teng and sacked Yecheng, how could they be defeated here?

As long as you rush out of the city and return to the camp, is it still unstoppable?

However, before their horse team approached the city gate, a rain of arrows shot in the face!

Oops!

It’s not a bow, it’s a crossbow!

How come these cavalrymen still have crossbows?

Although the Yecheng treasury was sacked and armored for everyone, the horses had no armor!

Immediately, several horses neighed and stumbled, throwing the knights off their backs!

“General, change the city gate!” a confidant shouted loudly.

However, Shi Le gritted his teeth: “Come on! Don’t stop!”

There were only fifty guards, and they were probably guarding every gate.

If they changed places, it would only delay more time and cause them to be caught up by the pursuers.

The best way now is to take advantage of the number of people and break out of the siege in one fell swoop!

With Shi Le’s order, the personal soldiers equipped with wooden shields immediately increased their horse speed and rushed in front to resist the arrow rain.

After all, there were more than 800 cavalry, and in just a moment, they rushed to the gate of the city and met the defenders.

This group of people has great archery skills and amazing knife skills, and there is a simple antler tripwire at the door, trying to stop them.

How could Shi Le admit defeat like this and personally lead his confidants to kill him.

This was simply the hardest battle he had ever faced since he started the army.

With only fifty people, they forcibly blocked their way to escape.

What if the main force of the enemy came?

Shi Le’s hair exploded in an instant, the sword danced like a flywheel, blood scattered, and his eyes were red.

At this moment, an exclamation came from the rear: “General!

”

Shi Le turned his head and saw Ji Sang fell off the horse.

This shouting also attracted the attention of the defending soldiers. The defending soldiers surrounding the forward actually retreated, wanting to kill the thief chief in one fell swoop.

That’s Jisang!

It was to promote him, to turn him from a horse thief into a general leading the army, to be a benefactor who named him!

However, the hesitation was only for a moment, and Shi Le slammed the horse’s belly, like an arrow from the string, rushing out of the tight encirclement!

“General!” The confidant next to him also rushed out, his face pale, “The general is still in the formation!”

“Let the troops come back and save!” Shi Le said sharply.

However, they did not find a large camp outside the city.

As if it had been plowed once, the camp had been smashed by the cavalry, the refugees who were already weak-willed fled, and even the rebels under their command were defeated.

They lost.

Big defeat!

Shi Le instantly recognized the situation.

This is not an enemy that rogues can solve, let alone kill them when they are looting and enjoying themselves.

“Withdraw! Leave Ye City, and gather the troops again!” Shi Le made a decisive decision and gave an order.

Some confidants tangled: “But the general is still in the city…”

Shi Le’s deep tiger eyes revealed a cold killing intent: “The general was killed by the Jin army, let’s reorganize our troops and take revenge for the general. !”

Those words immediately made the people around them shuddered.

Shi Le didn’t care about these blind guys, he looked at the towering towers in Yecheng angrily, waved his horsewhip, followed behind the defeated soldiers, and escaped.
