Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 208 Helper
Xu Yang, who was hiding behind the hillside, was cautious and could not feel the flow of time.On the battlefield ahead, the Jin army attacked again and again, as if there was no end to it.Shao Ling defended steadily, and the thousand iron armors made a slight attack every time to force the Jin army back, and immediately returned to the army formation.

The sun is slowly setting to the west, and the battlefield has been stalemate like this, and I don't know when it will end.

Xu Yang knew that this was normal.As soon as the two sides engage in battle, one side immediately collapses, which is a situation where the combat power of the two sides is greatly different.Most of the time it looks like this.One side keeps attacking to find the opponent's flaws, while the other side defends firmly.When it gets dark, they will withdraw their troops and fight again in the future.Until one side can't hold on and the formation is scattered, the opponent will seize the opportunity to defeat.

The role of brave generals is displayed at the critical moment when the winner is about to be decided.Some have the ability to turn the tide, and some can make a final decision.

The days in winter are very short, and the sun sets in the blink of an eye.

Xu Yang stretched his arms that were about to become stiff, and stood up.Looking at the battlefield after the troops were withdrawn, it was quiet.In the distance, under the city of Shanzhou, the drums of war are still rumbling without stopping.In the twilight, the Golden Army still flocked to the city like a tide.

Exhaling lightly, Xu Yang said: "The sun is setting, let's go to Shanzhou. May God bless you, everything is safe."

After finishing speaking, he took his five hundred soldiers and walked quietly along the hillside to Shanzhou City.When we got outside the city, it was completely dark, and a bright moon hung in the sky.Under the moonlight, an unknown number of gold soldiers surged towards the city on the beat of drums.Arrows flew randomly above the city, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

The Jin army surrounded the city, and if you want to enter, you must pass through the Jin army formation. 500 people rush into the city, how many people can be left?Xu Yang had no idea.However, as long as someone brings food into the city, it can give confidence to the defenders.

Quietly went around to the east of the city and assembled the army formation.Xu Yang said: "Shaanzhou City has been besieged for more than a month and a half, and it is extremely difficult now. You have all seen that the Jinlu kept attacking the city day and night, so how can we hold it? Moreover, the city has been without food and grass for many days, and we cannot enter. In the city, the defenders cannot be replenished, so it is difficult to hold on. In today's battle, it is not about killing or injuring many enemies. There is only one purpose, as many people as possible enter the city!"

People call it a promise.

Xu Yang looked at everyone.Said: "After a while, you will follow behind me and move forward slowly. As soon as you are spotted by the golden man, you will rush forward quickly. Remember to move forward quickly, and don't mess up the formation! When you arrive in front of the city, the people in the city People will take care of us!"

After finishing speaking, he drew out his waist knife, put it gently on his waist, and led everyone to the city.

Xu Yang led the people away very carefully, and under the cover of night, he was not noticed by the golden man.It was not until two hundred steps away from the city that the golden man who was repairing the ladder noticed.A general stepped forward and asked Xu Yang loudly who he was and where he came from.

Without answering, Xu Yang drew out his waist knife abruptly, cut down the golden general in front of him, and ran towards the city with the whole army.

Look at more than a hundred steps away from the city wall, and suddenly a general rushed out from the shadows.He said sharply: "Yesterday, reinforcements arrived in the west of the city, so my father decided that someone must enter the city again today! I waited here for a whole day, and you finally came! Let's see if it's your legs that are faster, or my sword!"

After finishing speaking, he led a group of golden troops to kill Xu Yang and the others.

Xu Yang was taken aback and had no choice but to raise the steel knife and face the person who came.Swords come and go, fighting together.

After fighting for a few rounds, Xu Yang knew something was wrong.The enemy will ride on horses and walk by himself. The difference between the two sides is too large.He said loudly: "Chi Yuping, if I die in battle, you will be the leader! Leave a hundred soldiers to fight the gold thief with me, and you take the rest into the city!"

The golden general said: "You have a good idea! None of you can enter the city today!"

After finishing speaking, he assigned his subordinates to surround the Song army.

At this moment, there was a sudden shout of killing from behind.A group of Song soldiers came out of the night like a gust of wind.

This team of about 3000 people from the Song Army suddenly appeared, and both the Jin Army and Xu Yang were taken aback.A general in the front rode a fine horse with a spear in his hand, and he was killed instantly.

Seeing the opportunity, Xu Yang said sharply, "Chi Yuping, bring the rest into the city!"

Chi Yuping sang a promise.It was too late to organize the team, so he ordered the 100 people behind to follow Xu Yang, and the rest followed him to the city.The surrounding Jin army was scattered by the Song army who suddenly came out, and it was too late to stop them.

Leading his soldiers and wielding a long knife in his hand, Chi Yuping headed straight for the city gate ahead.If a person is crazy, he can no longer hear any movement around him, and only knows to move forward with all his strength.When they were fifty or sixty steps outside the city gate, all the besieging Jin troops rushed towards Chi Yuping's troops, and the two sides fought in a group in front of the city gate.For a while, no one attacked the city.

I don't know how much time passed, Chi Yuping was almost numb, and couldn't see anything except the enemy in front of him.He heard the sudden shouts of killing, and the Jin army besieging him became a mess.Immediately afterwards, a Song army appeared in front of them.

When he raised his head suddenly, he found that the city gate had been opened.The Song army guarding the city rushed out from the gate and killed the Jin army in front of the city.

Zhang Chi stepped forward quickly, grabbed Chi Yuping, and asked, "Has the observation come yet? How many of you have come?"

Chi Yuping looked around blankly.Of the 400 people I brought with me, only more than 200 were left standing, and the rest fell in a pool of blood.Looking back, there was no sign of Xu Yang among the rebellious army, only some Song army was fighting the Jin army there.

"Say it!" Seeing that Chi Yuping didn't speak, Zhang Chi was a little irritable.

Chi Yuping shook his head, and said: "The observation hasn't arrived yet, but Shao Tongzhi's striker has arrived. I am under Commander Xu, and I was ordered to deliver food to the city. Commander Xu, I can't find it there—"

While speaking, tears flowed down unconsciously.

Zhang Chi looked up and saw that the Song army and the Jin army in front were mixed together. Although they had the upper hand, they could not wipe out the enemy at once.In the distance, there are troops in the Golden Army camp, and they will come soon.I understand in my heart that I can't get entangled here.He ordered his subordinates to untie all the food from the corpses of the Song army on the ground and bring them into the city.He shouted loudly to Song Jun who was not far away: "I don't know whose subordinates are fighting over there, can you tell me the name?"

A general stabbed the Jin soldiers in front, rode forward, and said loudly: "My next Zhang Qi is the vanguard of Zhai Guan's former army commander Dong Xian. He was ordered to break the siege of Shanzhou! Message to Li Guan, I will wait here Fighting against the Jin army outside the city will surely break the siege of Shanzhou!"

Zhang Chi said: "My next Zhang Chi, thank you on behalf of Li Guan! The Jin army is coming soon, and the general will lead the army back. There is too little food and grass in the city, and there is no room for too many people! A few days later, when the Dengzhou army arrives, we will fight the Jin army. life and death!"

Zhang Qi agreed.Commanding his subordinates, he retreated to the south of the city while fighting the Jin army.

After picking up Chi Yuping and others, Zhang Chi brought food and went back to the city together.Close the city gate again.

After entering the city, Chi Yuping's spirit slowly calmed down.Just with a heavy heart, without saying a word.

When they got to the tower, Li Yanxian asked about Chi Yuping's situation, and spoke kindly to comfort him.It's just that Chi Yuping was depressed and didn't speak.

This trip to the city to deliver food was much more difficult than that of Zhang Jun.If Zhang Qi hadn't come out suddenly, and Zhang Chi hadn't responded, it is very likely that all of them would have died outside the city.Even with so many helpers, the leader Xu Yang still died in the chaos.Half of the manpower gave their lives without entering the city.
