Chapter 173 A desperate battle outside the battlefield
Chapter 173: A desperate battle outside the battlefield
Compared with Fang Yuan and Li Danqiu's desperate fight outside the city, the siege force is undoubtedly the weakest.
But even so, the main city gate may still be breached, and the Eastern Turkic cavalry may also enter.
Xu Shihui is almost certain that if the city gate is breached, these soldiers will not be able to stop the East Turkic cavalry.
It's obviously more difficult for Fang Yuan, Li Danqiu and others, but his side may be the first to fall. What should he explain to Fang Yuan?
Seeing the scattered people walking quickly on the street, Xu Shihui suddenly had a plan in mind.
"Folks!"
Xu Shihui rode on the only horse at the main gate.
There are currently only four usable horses in the city, distributed at the four city gates and used for emergency communications.
When Xu Shihui shouted, not only the soldiers gathered in front of him looked at him, but also the people walking quickly stopped and looked at him.
"Folks!"
"The city gate may be breached at any time!"
"We need something heavy to hit those bitches attacking the city!"
"I beg you to run around and tell each other and bring heavy objects such as stones or large wooden blocks to support the defense of the city!"
"The governor outside the city is fighting to the death outside the city to protect us. We, the people of Liaozhou City, must also protect our Liaozhou City!"
Xu Shihui shouted.
Trying to mobilize the entire city's strength to defend the city.
It is very likely that the current thousand soldiers will not be able to defend the city gate.
But if all the people in other cities are mobilized, there will be no problem.
Unity is always the most powerful force, as long as the people are willing to contribute a small amount of strength.
Just, no response.
The scattered people on the street looked at Xu Shihui blankly.
Then a moment later, he slipped away faster than before.
Useless?
Xu Shihui looked at the situation in front of him, and his heart suddenly became filled with sadness.
He knows that since ancient times, people have disliked war and hated war.
Fang Yuan volunteered to recruit soldiers in the city, and he probably recruited foreign refugees like himself.
Because there are still some refugees in the city who have not been arranged to go to factories, have no place to live, no money, etc.
Participating in the military conscription is the most suitable choice for them at present. After all, joining the army does not necessarily mean going to the battlefield.
"Boom!"
There was another sound outside the city.
The city gate was hit hard, and gravel fell on both sides of the gate.
When Xu Shi saw this, he sighed in his heart, knowing that he could not delay any longer, and was ready to ask the current soldiers to move heavy objects to support.
But at this moment, a commoner carrying a piece of wood rushed out from around a corner.
"Damn it, I have to protect Liaozhou City too!"
"Yes, the Governor will protect us, and we will protect Liaozhou City!"
"Brothers, take action, follow the footsteps of the governor, and protect our homeland together!"
More people rushed out.
Some people moved blocks of wood, some moved stones, and some even moved their stoves.
Xu Shihui looked at this scene, and the eyes of a big man suddenly became wet, marveling at the love of Fang Yuan from the people of Liaozhou.
There is hope for defending the city!
Xu Shihui sighed in his heart and immediately organized soldiers to welcome and help.
......
Various families in the city.
The foreign family and the local family held a meeting for the first time when Fang Yuan did not organize them.
Both parties seemed to dislike each other. They both had a straight face after sitting down, and no one spoke first.
"If you have any grudges, let them go first."
"Let's discuss the matter today. What do you think we will do?"
Liu Yongshou coughed dryly, knocked on the table, and said in a deep voice.
His words made everyone's faces relax a little, and they no longer looked so straight-faced.
"I think we should leave Liaozhou City immediately!"
"Xu Shihui said just now that the city gate may not be able to be defended!"
Ye Chengmin pondered for a moment and then spoke for the second time.
He moved all the way to Liaozhou City, and he did not live or die with Liaozhou City.
If it weren't for Fang Yuan's influence in Liaozhou City, he would have left a few days ago.
As for the investment in Liaozhou City, I have the land deeds in hand, and they still belong to the Ye family.
Even if Fang Yuan did not dare to come back when he was serving as the governor of Liaozhou, there would always be times when Fang Yuan was not serving as the governor of Liaozhou.
And whether Fang Yuan can survive this head-on confrontation is still unknown.
"I don't recommend leaving."
"There are nearly a thousand soldiers guarding each city gate. If we want to forcefully leave through a city gate, we must go through their hurdles."
"And who can guarantee whether we will encounter Fang Yuan and the others after we leave the city gate, or whether we will be discovered by the East Turkic cavalry outside and pursue them?"
Zhao Yuanzhi shook his head and had no intention of leaving here.
He has invested a lot in Liaozhou and believes that Liaozhou is a place that is about to rise.
If you leave at this time, as long as Fang Yuan is in Liaozhou in the future, don't think about coming back to develop.
And even if Fang Yuan is not in Liaozhou, as long as Fang Yuan still controls Liaozhou, he may not be able to return to Liaozhou.
Naturally, these are all based on the condition that Fang Yuan can survive and Liaozhou City has not been breached.
"None of these are problems!"
"The thousands of cavalry are just temporary troops and cannot play a big role."
"As long as we control the only horse in the city, they can't stop us at all. We have an escape route."
Liu Yongshou said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he looked to the side at Xue Wenbo.
The Fenyin Xue family are all experts, so as long as they are willing to take the lead, there is no problem in rushing out.
In fact, even if Fenyin Xue doesn't take the lead, he and others still have a chance to rush out.
"Don't look at me, I said you won't leave until you leave."
"If you hadn't forced me to come, I wouldn't have attended this meeting."
Xue Wenbo said hummingly.
He not only provided horses, but also people.
I just plan to support Fang Yuan and support him to fight to the end.
Now we don't know whether Fang Yuan will win or not, and we are not sure when the imperial reinforcements will come, so we just want to leave.
As a martial artist, he cannot avoid such a thing.
"Wenbo..."
Liu Yongshou opened his mouth and changed his expression, trying to play the emotional card.
"Put away your hypocritical expression, or I will punch you to death."
Xue Wenbo didn't want to listen to Liu Yongshou's words and said hummingly.
Even if there were so many aristocratic families here, he would not give Liu Yongshou any face.
"You old stubborn!"
Liu Yongshou said angrily.
Because of Xue Wenbo's insistence, the meeting seemed to have reached a stalemate.
Some people want to leave now, some people are determined not to leave, and some people want to decide after seeing the results.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Du Miaoyan was sitting in the Governor's Mansion, waiting for them to leave with a cold face.
She wants to kill someone now.
......
The war outside the city has entered a fever pitch.
The morale of the Liaozhou cavalry increased greatly because of Fang Yuan's "resurrection from the dead".
However, in the face of absolute strength, Fang Yuan and others are still at a disadvantage.
"Die for me, general!"
Ashina Luoyun is eyeing Fang Yuan.
He tore off part of his clothes, simply bandaged the wound and then killed Fang Yuan.
This kind of injury is a minor injury to him, but it greatly reduces his strength to hold the knife.
He is still brave and murderous.
As soon as he drove, the war horse raised its head to the sky and roared loudly.
Then he sprinted towards Fang Yuan, his eyes full of cruelty and terror.
Fang Yuan's face darkened, he took a deep breath, and forcefully pumped up his energy for twelve minutes to sprint.
The horses of both sides sprint towards each other, and they are about to collide in the blink of an eye.
"Dang!"
The swords and weapons faced each other, and the fire came out again.
Ashina Luoyun thought she could kill Fang Yuan with one strike.
Because he is brave and good at fighting, when the enemy collides with him, he can change the direction of the sword when he draws it, killing the unwary enemy by surprise.
However, when he sprinted against Fang Yuan again, the knife in his hand was almost knocked out by Fang Yuan's knife, and he almost lost his grip on the knife.
"Can win!"
Fang Yuan sprinted forward and suddenly felt happy.
But his face suddenly changed, severe pain came from his chest, and his throat suddenly felt sweet.
There seemed to be blood that was about to spurt out, but Fang Yuan held it back and swallowed it alive.
I was chopped down by Ashina Luoyun just now and fell to the ground, causing internal injuries. Now the impact is very serious.
Although the other party was injured and held the knife unsteadily, he was also seriously injured and could not benefit from it.
"I have never hated someone so much!"
Ashina Luoyun looked at the hands dripping with blood.
Blood flowed down the handle to the end of the knife, and the whole knife became a bloody knife.
Then he looked at Fang Yuan, his eyes were cold and scary as if he had actual murderous intent.
The dignified Qianqi General was repeatedly humiliated by the governor of a small place, and he was furious.
"Kill!"
Ashina Luoyun gave a low drink.
He galloped towards Fang Yuan again.
Fang Yuan took a deep breath, grasped the horse rope tightly with his left hand, and grasped the handle of the knife with his right hand.
But instead of rushing towards Ashina Luoyun, he turned around and ran in the direction of Li Danqiu.
The siblings are very close to each other. Although they are surrounded by Eastern Turkic cavalry, they are relatively mobile.
"Danqiu, Siwen, the Eastern Turkic general is injured, find an opportunity to kill him!"
Fang Yuan shouted while running.
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of Eastern Turkic cavalry suddenly arrived.
But Fang Yuan already had experience and easily dodged the opponent's attack.
In fact, most of the Liaozhou cavalry who survived at this time had accumulated experience.
It's just that the number has dropped sharply. I don't know if half of the thousand cavalry are left, so they are absolutely weak.
"Kill!"
Li Danqiu's sister and brother suddenly looked at each other.
Covered in blood, they killed in the direction of Ashina Luoyun.
The Eastern Turkic cavalry surrounding them were also led that way.
Seeing that the two of them are getting closer to Ashina Luoyun, they may start a war with Ashina Luoyun.
But Ashina Luoyun didn't even look at them, and went towards Fang Yuan, vowing to kill Fang Yuan.
Seeing that he missed Li Danqiu and his brother, Fang Yuan changed direction again and rushed towards Xue Bowu.
Xue Bowu opened his arms and killed them so hard that they could not get close to Luo Dewang and others.
However, due to their tactics, Xue Bowu's forces were unable to work.
"Bo Wu, chop his grandfather!"
When Fang Yuan saw this, he shouted at Xue Bowu.
For such a fierce general to be trapped like this is a huge loss.
"Ahhhh!!!"
"Kill his grandfather!!!"
Xue Bowu roared.
The Guan Gong sword in his hand becomes even more powerful.
During this period, there was a roar, and an Eastern Turkic cavalryman who did not dodge in time was cut in the waist, his body was cut in two, and he died an extremely tragic death.
"So strong?!"
Ashina Luoyun finally looked at Xue Bowu.
He frowned and couldn't believe there was such a young warrior.
"General, please support!"
When Tongluo Dewang saw that it was Ashina Luoyun, he was immediately excited.
The Eastern Turks respect the strong and follow the laws of the jungle. Only the strong can sit in a higher position.
Among this cavalry, the strongest one is undoubtedly Ashina Luoyun, and then he is the deputy general.
Seeing Ashina Luoyun coming to kill, Tongluo Dewang immediately saw the hope of victory and thought that Xue Bowu's death was coming.
"That was the governor of Liaozhou. Kill him and the Tang army will be demoralized!"
Ashina Luoyun did not stop and continued to chase Fang Yuan.
Tong Luo Dewang's pupils shrank and then looked in Fang Yuan's direction.
No wonder I thought he was different just now. He turned out to be the governor of Liaozhou and the highest official in Liaozhou.
After getting Ashina Luoyun's explanation, I had no objections to Lotewan and others.
In fact, even if there is no explanation, they don't dare to have an opinion.
It was just that Tongluo Dewu was surprised when he saw Ashina Luoyun's hand wrapped in clothes and blood flowing out.
But he couldn't allow him to think too much. Xue Bowu had already rushed out of their siege and charged out, killing one of their cavalry in the blink of an eye.
"Surround him!"
Tongluo was drunk.
Xue Bowu is the key target.
Trap him, and all the Liaozhou cavalry will be killed sooner or later.
But if he is rushed out, the situation on the battlefield will change.
"Gan, Ashina Luoyun is eyeing me?!"
Fang Yuan murmured, frowning and running on the battlefield.
As Fang Yuan ran around the battlefield, he found that many people were dead.
There were some familiar faces among them, and one of the state officials, Captain Zhao Ergou, was seen lying in a pool of blood, dying with his eyes open.
Zheng Jiu and Huang Da are already seriously injured and may be killed at any time.
The more he watched, the heavier Fang Yuan's heart became.
And Fang Yuan cannot support them.
Now he is being chased by Ashina Luoyun, and he needs the support of others even more.
Just seeing how difficult each of them were, Fang Yuan could no longer let them support him.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan finally made a decision!
"Li Danqiu, command the entire army, I want to fight to the death with the East Turkic general!"
Fang Yuan shouted loudly.
After yelling, my chest felt like it was burning.
He looked in the right direction and ran towards the open space outside the battlefield.
Decided to use the terrain to fight to the death with Ashina Luoyun to see who wins.
If you can kill the opponent, use the opponent's head, or scare off the East Turkic cavalry.
The reason why I did not choose to do it on the battlefield is because the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if you are not careful, you will be killed by other cavalry.
When Li Danqiu, who was fighting the enemy bravely, heard Fang Yuan's words, his body suddenly trembled and his eyes became moist.
Every governor has this realization. As the daughter of a general, why should she fear death?
"Brothers, work hard for me!"
Li Danqiu drinks sweetly.
Give the order.
Many people heard Fang Yuan's voice before leaving.
It was so loud and tragic that it made their souls tremble.
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Zheng Jiu and others were furious.
I no longer worry about my own life.
Even if you die, you have to take someone with you.
"Very strong!"
Ashina Luoyun looked squarely at Fang Yuan for the first time.
He couldn't understand what Fang Yuan just said, but he could probably guess its meaning.
Seeing the sudden change in the wind direction on the battlefield and the Liaozhou cavalry becoming tragic, he felt that Fang Yuan was not simple.
It is rare for the governor of such a small place to have such a spirit. The warriors of the grasslands admire such people.
But it didn't change his intention to kill Fang Yuan at all.
Similarly, he also felt that as long as he killed Fang Yuan, he could conquer the Liaozhou cavalry and even break the city easily.
It's almost noon now. If this continues, reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty may arrive, and he can't stay here for too long.
It's all because of the Tang Dynasty's intelligence, saying that there are tens of thousands of refugees here who can be easily crushed, making the Tang Dynasty regret attacking the East Turks at this time.
Soon, Fang Yuan and the two had already ran out of the battlefield and stayed away from the battlefield.
Fang Yuan looked at the location and was about to stop, but suddenly noticed the mountains not far away.
Immediately, I had other thoughts in my mind and ran towards the lush mountain range, speeding up and running towards the mountain.
"Go up the mountain?!"
Ashina Luoyun suddenly frowned.
Immediately pull on the horse's rope and slow down the horse.
If you charge up the mountain like this, the war horse will not be able to adapt to the bumpy mountain road.
Moreover, there are many small stones in the mountains, which can easily damage the horses' feet and cause the horses to be scrapped.
Either the person fell off the horse, or the horse's leg was injured and he could no longer ride.
Seeing Fang Yuan getting closer and closer to the mountains, Ashina Luoyun hesitated whether to catch up.
I also want to see what will happen after Fang Yuan rushes up the mountain range.
"咴咴~~"
Fang Yuan's war horse was seen jumping up and charging up the mountain range.
After rushing up the mountain range, Fang Yuan's horse slowed down a lot, but it still ran upward.
It can be seen that the mountain road is steep, and Fang Yuan's body on the war horse is bumpy, and he almost falls off the war horse several times.
Finally, Fang Yuan pulled the horse to a halt and couldn't hold back any more blood. He spat it out with a loud sound, and his whole mouth was filled with the unpleasant smell of blood.
Fang Yuan wiped the blood from his lips, turned his horse and looked at Ashina Luoyun who was parked at the foot of the mountain, stretched out his left hand and raised the international middle finger.
Ashina Luoyun's face darkened, he pondered for a moment, then rushed towards the mountain with a roar.
He didn't understand the meaning of Fang Yuan's middle finger, but he guessed that Fang Yuan was insulting him.
Since Fang Yuan’s horse can go up the mountain, why can’t his horse?
Fighting alone, he is very sure that he can kill Fang Yuan.
"Da da da..."
Ashina Luoyun's war horse rushed upward.
As soon as he stepped into the mountains, he felt a violent jolt.
The war horse stepped on the steep and uneven mountains and was about to knock him down several times.
Finally, two-thirds of the way through the charge, his horse's front foot stepped on a sharp small stone.
Suddenly, Ashina Luoyun's horse became crazy and knelt forward with its front legs. Ashina Luoyun immediately fell off the horse.
This is the time!
Fang Yuan's eyes flashed, and with a driving sound, he galloped down on his horse.
The speed of the war horse going down the mountain was completely incomparable with that of going up the mountain. Fang Yuan felt like he was flying, with his body sticking tightly to the horse's back.
In the blink of an eye, the war horse has arrived in front of Ashina Luoyun.
The moment Ashina Luoyun fell to the ground, she quickly stabilized her body.
He noticed that Fang Yuan was approaching quickly, and the war horse rushed towards him.
If you are hit by a war horse in this situation, you will definitely be disabled even if you are not dead.
At that moment, Ashina Luoyun entered an unprecedented state, her reaction speed was unprecedented, and she jumped to the side to avoid the collision of the war horse.
Let’s fight!
When Fang Yuan saw this, he glared hard, stared at the saddle with his feet, left the horse, and hit Ashina Luoyun with a knife.
Ashina Luoyun's pupils widened subconsciously. She was still unconscious in her mind, and her body was unable to react, so she was hit by Fang Yuan.
Bang!
Fang Yuan bumped into Ashina Luoyun's body.
In an instant, the two of them were like kites with broken strings, vomiting blood in the air and flying backwards.
Ashina Luoyun was immediately knocked out by Fang Yuan. He flew upside down to the ground and fell down the mountain. His clothes became tattered and there were new scars on his chest. The bones were clearly visible and he had turned into a bloody man.<
/p>
Fang Yuan was not much better. After a rapid collision with Ashina Luoyun, he also fell heavily to the ground, rolled down the mountain, and hit a tree again halfway, and was blocked by the tree and stopped rolling down.
.
Originally, Fang Yuan had lost consciousness when he fell heavily to the ground, but the pain when he hit the tree woke him up.
At this time, Fang Yuan felt that his whole body was falling apart, as if dozens of bones were broken.
Thinking back to just now, a knife hit Ashina Luoyun's chest, thinking that he should be dead.
The big stone in my heart is about to be let go,
But at this moment, Ashina at the foot of the mountain made a sound of falling clouds and staggered to his feet.
