Chapter 958: Loyalty and integrity, scholar representative Qin Hui
"kill!
On hundreds of meters of city wall, the two sides charged back and forth, turning into a tragic place of death.
Missing arrows, javelins, throwing axes, falling up and down.
Mud, blood, sweat, mixed everywhere.
The shouts of killing, the sound of flesh-throwing, the generals’ commanding voices, and the rolling waves.
The dual stimulation of sound and painting, and the torment of blood and fire, drove the warriors on both sides of Jin and Liao into a state of madness.
No one is timid to retreat. He can only kill the enemy or be killed by the enemy.
Wanyan Loushi climbed bravely for the third time and almost jumped to the top of the city. However, when he was dodging rocks, he was shot in the arm by an arrow. He had to fall down to the top of the city, pulled out the arrow, and gasped for breath.
.
Facts have proved that the imperial commander's personal expedition is indeed effective.
Judging from the specifications of the city defense, the North City guarded by Yelu Yanxi was nothing. There was no moat in the first place, and the regular city defense equipment was in the outer city. It was not until the Jin people came in that the palace began to prepare in a hurry.
Dry firewood, boiling oil, hammered wood, stones, everything that could be used were used as simple tools to defend the city. The maids and maids at the rear were constantly carrying firewood forward.
But it was the Liao Emperor who stood on the city wall and took the lead in shooting at the golden man below, which completely aroused the morale of the defenders. Long arrows roared, looking for gaps in the wide shield, and stabbed fiercely.
Enter the chest of the golden man.
The Jin army who followed Wanyan Aguda were also people with outstanding archery skills. They held Korean horn bows in their hands and responded with sharp arrows. They used firepower to suppress the firepower and gain opportunities for their own soldiers to climb.
But even so, Yelu Yanxi was still protected by shields on the left and right, swaying rain of arrows. Even though his arms were getting more and more sore, he still kept shouting filial piety: "I will kill all you golden people!"
"Brother Wang, the enemy may return for reinforcements at any time, we can't delay any longer under Beicheng!"
Wanyan Gao came to Wanyan Aguda and said anxiously.
Wanyan Aguda's expression was serious: "With Nianhan guarding the main road, Oruduo will not be able to return to the defense for a while. However, if the battle continues for a long time in the city, I'm afraid the people's hearts will change!"
[To be honest, I have recently updated it, switched sources, and have many reading sounds, yeguoyuedu. Available on Android and Apple.]
The Liao Kingdom in this world collapsed much faster than in the original history due to the loss of Yan Yun and the oppression of the powerful Yan. However, without the Battle of Dagang, the entire army of 700,000 to 20,000 was annihilated, and a large number of living people were still left.
The military strength is just a piece of scattered sand, each with its own agenda and poor cohesion.
Therefore, it is undoubtedly the best strategy to send troops directly to the capital. The Jin cavalry rushed thousands of miles to catch everyone by surprise, and then relied on Wanyan Gao and others who had sneaked in early to open the city gate and kill at the base of the imperial city. I thought that at this point, it would be devastating.
I didn't expect to hit a wall at the last moment.
Their previous words to destroy the Khitans had already pushed the Khitans into a desperate situation. The other ethnic groups had other thoughts. If the attack on the city went smoothly, the North City would be directly destroyed, the Liao Kingdom would be destroyed, and the place would change its owner. It would be natural for all ethnic groups to support them.
But if the Jin army is frustrated below the city, it's hard to say whether all the tribes will mobilize and encircle them...
Wanyan Aguda had actually thought of a way, and said in a deep voice: "Emperor Tianzuo is shrewd in small things, but ignorant in big things. His arrogant nature is hard to change. Once we show signs of retreat and linger in the south city, he will definitely come out of the city to chase us.
, as long as this man is captured, the remaining Khitans will not be a concern!"
Wanyan Gao said happily: "Brother Wang is wise!"
Throughout the ages, the tactic of defeating the sheep and luring the enemy has been used countless times, but it is still so effective, because in the face of victory, it is often difficult for people to remain calm, let alone miss the opportunity to annihilate the enemy.
What's more, when it is "don't chase the poor aggressors", and when it becomes "it is better to chase the poor aggressors with the remaining courage", it is precisely the most difficult to judge. This trick is absolutely effective against the arrogant and arrogant Yelu Yanxi.
Wanyan Aguda was worried about another point: "You lured Emperor Tianzuo, and I'm going to lure one person away. If that person shows up and warns me, then the success will be in vain!"
Wanyan Gao's expression suddenly changed: "How can Brother Wang be in danger alone?"
Wanyan Aguda said coldly: "You can't stop him, only I can. No need to say more, prepare quickly!"
Wanyan Gao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"
…
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, look, the Jin people are about to retreat! The Jin people are about to retreat!
Xiao Fengxian's ecstatic voice was the first to sound.
Yelu Yanxi was immersed in archery. His archery skills were excellent. The guards on the left and right protected the shields tightly, and suppressed fire from the flanks. With this cooperation, he could only attack but not defend, and shot three golden men with his own hands.
People just feel their blood boiling, and they want to look up to the sky and roar, with strong feelings.
At this time, I heard Xiao Fengxian's shout and looked down the city.
The Jin soldiers charged up the wall again and again, failed and retreated again and again, leaving more than a hundred corpses behind. Finally, they began to gather men and horses, and a group of generals pointed and slowly retreated.
"Haha! Hahaha!"
Yelu Yanxi laughed wildly, smiling with red eyes, and cried again: "Since Taizu founded the country in hundreds of battles, we in Daliao have gone through nine emperors. How can I be like Zhao Ji in the Southern Dynasties, and become the last emperor of the country and become the Khitan?"
sinner?"
Xiao Fengxian hurriedly said: "How can your Majesty be comparable to the late Emperor of the Song Dynasty? This victory over the Jin Dynasty has announced to the world and called on all the diligent kings of all tribes to annihilate the Xi thieves and revitalize the Liao Dynasty!"
"well said!"
Yelu Yanxi's eyes were full of pride and contentment, but before he could think about his future blueprint, a rising black smoke occupied his sight, followed by a second and third one.
He took a closer look and became furious: "This group of gold thieves couldn't capture the imperial city, so they killed people and set fire to my capital. How can we let them and all the soldiers obey orders?"
The palace guards responded in unison: "Yes!"
Yelu Yanxi shouted: "Follow me to the battle and completely wipe out these gold thieves!"
Xiao Fengxian's joyful expression instantly froze, and he hugged his leg with a tiger's pounce: "Your Majesty, you must not do this. We must rely on the city to hold on and recruit the kings from all walks of life. We must not take risks ourselves!"
Yelu Yanxi reprimanded: "Hutu! This is the capital. If these gold thieves are allowed to wreak havoc, where will my face go? By the time King Qin's army enters the city, these thieves will have already looted the property and escaped. What majestic order can I have?"
All races?”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xiao Feng couldn't answer it first. If it were Xiao Wuna at this time, he would definitely order the left and right to hold Yelu Yanxi, and personally lead the troops in Beicheng, but after all, he would not dare to do that
Do.
Yelu Yanxi turned to look at the guards in the palace and raised the scimitar in his hand: "Let the Jin people see the power of our Khitan warriors. Kill the Jin people's soldiers and reward them with a hundred taels of silver. Kill the Jin people's generals and get a real title.
Kill the gold master Wanyan Agudha... and make him the King of Lanling!"
After the battle just now, everyone's confidence has been greatly increased, and their morale has become even more exciting. They shouted in unison: "Kill!
Yelu Yanxi threw Xiao Fengxian away and turned over onto the Snow Thousand Miles Red. The other Khitan guards were guarding him: "Follow me and charge!
The north city gate opened, and Emperor Tian Zuo fulfilled his promise to lead the expedition in person. The Khitan troops swept out like a ball of brilliant flames. In terms of momentum, they were no worse than the Jin cavalry who had rushed thousands of miles before, and even exceeded it.
.
Because a large banner was conspicuously moving with the army. The huge wolf head tattooed on it made a majestic sound in the strong wind. Wherever it went, the soldiers and civilians in Nancheng responded one after another, spontaneously took up arms and resisted.
intruder.
Any plan to pretend to be defeated carries huge risks. You can't just look at the result of winning. There are actually more examples of failure. Now that the Jin people are pretending to be defeated, they are being stared at by pairs of sharp eyes.
Seeing that they were very aggressive but not very capable, they continued to attack Beicheng, turned around and retreated, and burned, looted, and set houses on fire along the way, I would no longer tolerate it.
“Whoosh!
An arrow shot from a dark place was missed and became a clear signal to attack. Groups of soldiers and civilians rushed out to outflank the enemy.
"Out!"
Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Loushi led the troops to fight and retreat, but they were not worried about these losers. They were extremely nervous. It was not until the big banner appeared in their sight that they felt relieved.
The two of them looked at each other, and Wanyan Lousi came up with a bold plan: "The general can disguise himself as a sheep and get hit by an arrow, fall to the ground, and take the opportunity to approach the Liao Emperor and capture him alive!"
Wanyan Gao expressed his approval, but made a modification: "Emperor Liao hates me even more. It's up to you to attract the attention of the guards, and I will get closer to Emperor Liao!"
Wanyan Loushi had just charged into battle several times and was extremely brave. He was the number one general outside the Jin Kingdom's royal family, but Yelu Yanxi really didn't necessarily remember that.
There were only two Jin people who impressed Emperor Tianzuo deeply. One was Wanyan Aguda, the gold master, and the other was Wanyan Gao, who had been on many missions to the Liao Kingdom and had always been humble and led gold people into the city at critical moments.
In terms of the degree of hatred, there is a huge contrast between the latter, so as the emperor's younger brother, Wanyan Gao was extremely fierce, but he was willing to take this dangerous risk.
"The gold thief shall leave!"
Yelu Yanxi was riding on the Snow Thousand Miles Red, surrounded by guards with shields, protecting them at all levels. It was really airtight, chasing the Jin army all the way, and then saw a Jin general with an extraordinary status in the distance.
He was hit by a cold arrow shot from the dark, screamed in agony, and fell off his horse.
The other Jin people just wanted to help, but saw their own army pressing in. They hesitated for a while, and finally fled in all directions.
"Your Majesty, the person who fell from the horse seems to be Wanyan Gao, the envoy of the Jin Dynasty!"
Yelu Yanxi didn't pay much attention at first. He didn't even know who the top leaders of the Jurchens were. Even if he caught someone he wasn't familiar with, he wouldn't have much sense of accomplishment. But when his subordinates confirmed their identity and reported the matter, they immediately became happy: "
bring it here!"
Just when Wanyan Gao was lifted up by the Khitan warriors and dragged into the formation, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from far and near, surrounding him from all directions.
"Wanyan Gao? He also has this day. I won't let you die happily!"
Yelu Yanxi's attention was still on the half-dead Wanyan Gao, with a look of ridicule on his face. The expressions of the experienced soldiers on the left and right changed dramatically: "Your Majesty... enemy attack! enemy attack!"
The formation quickly tightened, but while the dust was flying, Wanyan Loushi had already led his cavalry to charge over.
Every golden man's eyes flashed with a terrifying and terrifying light, how could he possibly be in danger of collapse?
Yelu Yanxi realized that he had fallen into the trap, and became angry with shame, but was not afraid. He shouted: "This is the capital of our Liao people. The army and the people are fighting in the streets, and we must kill all these gold thieves!"
In view of the cold arrows fired from the streets and alleys from time to time, and the soldiers and civilians who were killed, the Liao army, fighting with the home field advantage, indeed had a good chance of winning.
When His Majesty the Liao Emperor roared like this, the guards calmed down, arranged their formation, bent their bows and nocked arrows, and shot at the thieves.
However, just when the attention of the Liao army completely shifted to the Jin people who were outflanking, and when they saw that the two sides were about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, Wanyan Gao, who had just been escorted over, slipped out a short blade from his sleeve and pounced on Yelu Yanxi's body.
He got off his mount and jumped up with incredible speed.
During this lightning-fast process, Wanyan Gao was also stabbed by the long swords of the guards on the left and right, and blood flowed from his abdomen. However, he gritted his teeth and resisted. After all, he took a step faster and got close behind him, holding the short blade against Yelu Yanxi.
On his neck: "Your Majesty, Emperor Liao, you have been defeated, let the Liao people surrender!"
Yelu Yanxi's eyes widened, his blood surged, and he was furious, but he hit him hard with his elbow: "Don't even think about it!
After all, Emperor Tianzuo was the lord of the Liao Kingdom. Wanyan Gao did not want to kill him directly. His expression changed slightly. He moved back the short blade in his hand and took action again to subdue him...
The Liao army and the Jin army on the outside were fighting together, and Yelu Yanxi and Wanyan Gao were fighting together inside, making the scene a mess.
"Plop! Plop!"
The battle between the two would decide the winner more quickly. After a rapid scream, Yelu Yanxi and Wanyan Gao both fell down from the back of Tuxue Qianlihong, who was nearly eight feet tall at the shoulders.
The guard who had just cast the rat weapon immediately rushed over, but his scalp was numb, and a chill went straight to the sky.
Because Wanyan Gao quickly rolled to the side, their emperor never got up again, and the shocking blood spread from underneath him.
