Yin Li saw the dust rising and his eyes sharpened, "Your Majesty, General Ashina has led the enemy out."
The emperor immediately took a step forward, looked at the dusty place, clenched his fist and said, "Wait a moment."
The emperor asked Ashina to lead a thousand cavalry to lure the enemy, but he also arranged two groups of cavalry to ambush. On one side, Zhao Guogong led 15,000 soldiers and horses to ambush in Xiling, and on the other side, Niu Cishi led 11,000.
Soldiers and horses were ambushed in the north of the mountain.
Ashina led a thousand cavalry and led the enemy troops into the canyon. Niu Cishi, who was ambushing on the north side of the mountain, saw them entering the urn and immediately rushed out with his men. The emperor standing on the high mountain saw the dust flying and knew that Niu Cishi had taken action.
.
Immediately beat the war drums, ask people to wave flags, and let Zhao Guogong charge in with his troops and horses to surround the enemy.
When Yanshou heard the sound of drums, he looked up and saw the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty standing on the top of the mountain. He was so excited that he immediately ordered people to form a formation to meet the enemy. He pointed his sword at him and said: "My sons, that is the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
Any warrior who can capture him will be rewarded with a thousand marquises!"
The army started making noise, and some people immediately rushed towards Beishan.
Ashina turned around to kill, and with the troops and horses rushing in by Niu Jishi, they stopped most of them in an instant.
Some others rushed out. Yin Li saw that a thousand people were left to guard the emperor, and he rushed down with three thousand soldiers and horses.
Bai Shan glanced at the emperor and followed closely.
The emperor stood on the top of the mountain and could clearly see the battle situation below. He directly commanded with flags. Generals such as Zhao Guogong and Niu Cishi changed their formations according to the flags, constantly strangled the enemy troops entering the valley, and continuously introduced more enemy troops.
.
Yin Li led 3,000 cavalrymen and rushed down from the mountain. They ran into the enemy troops and cut the first cavalryman in half with a single blow.
Bai Shan, who was behind him, looked away with some discomfort. He drew out his sword and charged into the army. The sword he used was much gentler than Yin Li's. He only wiped his neck and stabbed his heart. It was definitely not like Yin Li's.
This cut the man in half with one knife.
Daji was Bai Shan's personal soldier, and he followed him closely, cutting people while protecting him as he rushed forward.
Three thousand men quickly killed all the enemy troops who rushed out of the formation.
Yin Li raised his hand to withdraw his troops, and all the soldiers and horses lined up behind him in an orderly manner. He looked towards the battlefield in the canyon with a sinister look on his face.
They will not join in. Their task is to protect the emperor and prevent any soldiers from going up the mountain.
The Goguryeo soldiers kept trying to rush over, but most of them couldn't. Others did, and were killed by the three thousand forbidden troops.
After fighting for a long time, Yanshou found that they were losing people constantly and were completely surrounded and killed by the Jin army. His face changed drastically, and he was frightened and frightened. He could only retreat, but there were Jin troops on the way.
"General——"
Yanshou gritted his teeth and said: "Retreat to the mountains, defend along the mountains, quickly——"
But there were too many of them. When they finally occupied a nearby mountain and established themselves on the mountain, they lost more than 20,000 people.
Yanshou was heartbroken, but there was something even more distressing. Zhao Guogong led his men to rush out and directly killed the people they wanted to build checkpoints along the way, cutting off their escape route.
In this way, although they occupied a mountain and temporarily defended it, they were also surrounded and could not retreat or advance.
Yanshou and the emperor on Beishan looked at each other from afar. After a while, they turned back to the tent they had just set up and punched the table in annoyance.
Huihe, the Mohe general who was with him, widened his eyes and said, "We have to kill them. We don't have much food and grass."
Yanshou vomited to death, "Of course I know, but how to kill him now?"
He somewhat blamed Huihe for not knowing how to advance or retreat. If he hadn't been chasing Ashina, the 60,000 of them would not have fallen into a trap.
A total of 60,000. Although they claim to have 150,000 reinforcements, there are actually not that many. There are only 120,000 who can actually fight. So there are only 60,000 left in the camp. I don’t know if they will come.
Rescue.
Rescue was impossible because they were blocked by Jin's 20,000 troops.
The emperor watched from a distance and was very happy. The result was greater than he imagined and the war was going more smoothly than he thought.
I didn't expect Yanshou to be so cowardly that he didn't fight out, but clung to the mountain, without food, grass, or logistical supplies. Wasn't that looking for death?
Try your best to rush out. Even if you make a desperate move, you may suffer heavy casualties, but their numbers are far greater than that of the Jin, and they still have a high chance of rushing out.
Bai Shan and Yin Li returned to the emperor, took a look, and asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, do you want to persuade him to surrender?"
The emperor glanced at Bai Shan approvingly, "How did you know that I wanted to persuade him to surrender?"
Bai Shan: "It's getting cold. If we continue to use it, it will be very costly for us. They don't even have the courage to rush out. It should be easy to persuade them to surrender."
The emperor nodded slightly and said, "This is not urgent. I just saw a young general in white robe below who was very brave. What is his name?"
Yin Li also noticed it and was about to send someone to ask. Bai Shan said: "My name is Xue Gui. She comes from the Xue family in Hedong. She was the queen of the King of Hedong in the Northern Dynasty."
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "After a famous general, let him take a short rest and then bring a thousand troops to kill the remaining spirit of theirs."
"Yes." After Bai Shan agreed, someone would naturally go to deliver the order, but he needed to write the order and imperial edict. Well, this is the role of Zhongshu Sheng on the battlefield.
So the Goguryeo army was restless even at night. Xue Gui, Ashina, Niu Cishi and others took turns to go into battle. You go up and kill for half an hour, and after a while I go to kill for another half an hour...
When the casualties were counted the next morning, Yanshou almost shed tears.
When the soldiers came up to report that they didn't have much rations with them and were about to break out of the encirclement, or something else, Yanshou burst into tears.
Just when he was a little hesitant and wanted to organize his troops to rush out, there was a loud roar outside. Not only the soldiers below, but even Yanshou couldn't help but feel frightened when he heard these sounds that seemed to be exploding in his ears.
.
Huihe said with a pale face: "Our way back is cut off, how can we retreat?"
Prolong life without speaking.
Several lieutenants standing silently in the camp couldn't help but look at each other, and someone suggested in a low voice: "General, if not, let's surrender."
Everyone looked at Yanshou with bright eyes.
Even Huihe whispered: "Otherwise, just surrender. If the emperor of the Jin Dynasty doesn't kill the surrendered troops, look at Ashina, isn't he a surrendered general?"
Extending one's life is like being caught in a fire and unable to make up one's mind.
Outside, the emperor and Zhao Guogong said: "Let the sons scream louder, and cook broth for them for lunch."
As the decree was passed on, everyone shouted louder. They surrounded the longevity army and shouted loudly. The sound rushed back and forth in the canyon, and the constant echoes made the sound even louder.
The hands of the Goguryeo soldiers who were defending with swords and guns trembled. Huihe pulled Yanshou to look at them and said sadly: "Our courage is gone. What can we use to fight?"
Yanshou's face turned pale, and he finally closed his eyes, untied his knife and went down the mountain.
Everyone knew at a glance that he had agreed to surrender.
