Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 414: Ding Tai Awarded the Head

In the desperate situation, the Han army aroused a strong fighting force, and the Xianbei soldiers who climbed the city wall were repeatedly driven off the city wall.

The Xianbei people finally retreated, leaving corpses all over the ground. After days of bloody battles, Yanmen Pass had already been stained with a layer of dark red. Under the setting sun, it looked even more desolate and solemn.

The Han army on the city roared loudly, indicating that they were still alive. Corpses could be seen everywhere on the city wall, but the soldiers squatted down silently, took out the weapon in Pao Ze's hand, and gently closed their eyes.

Next, Xianbei seemed to be stimulated by something, and the attack was unprecedentedly violent. In one day, three waves of attacks were launched. Zhou Yi felt his throat was hoarse, and he still insisted. Xing put all his troops into Guanshang, and the battles in turn made the Han army exhausted. After Xianbei retreated, it was difficult to tell how many soldiers were alive in Guanshang, lying all over the place.

"General, you go down to the city to rest for a while, the Xianbei people will not be able to attack for a while." A personal guard persuaded.

Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "If the Xianbei people don't retreat for a day, I won't go to the city for a day. The little Xianbei dares to wreak havoc in front of the Han army!"

There are only 1000 Han soldiers left in the closed gate, and everyone has more or less injuries. Some soldiers even had their arms cut off during the battle, but they still persisted tenaciously. Yanmen Pass was in danger, and the soldiers sent out for help There is no news so far, as if nothing has disappeared, Zhou Yi is a little resentful, there are tens of thousands of troops in Bingzhou, but no reinforcements have been sent, and the arrows in the city are only enough for tomorrow. After tomorrow, the Han army can only fight with the Xianbei people.

In Guangyan City, Ding Tai's face was full of excitement, and he said loudly: "Lu Yi, you have made great achievements in leading the soldiers and repelling the Huns' army. I will report to the Holy One in the future."

"Thank you, my lord!" Lu Yi bowed and said in a flat voice, not at all the joy of being rewarded.

In Lu Yi's view, the Huns were able to retreat. It was basically the credit of the Xiliang Army. The courage of the Huns was completely defeated in World War I. They did not dare to go out to fight in the city, so they had to be ravaged by the Han army outside the city. Passing the Jing Lane, which was as high as the city wall, I could only watch in a daze as a number of Han soldiers rushed from the Jing Lane to the city wall.

After five consecutive days of fighting, Shan Yu's ambition was completely defeated. The warriors on the grassland were beaten to pieces by the Xiliang army.

Shan Yu led the soldiers and retreated back to Meiji.

Weirdly, the Han army outside the city did not pursue them, and the backhands arranged by Shan Yu were useless.

After retreating to Meiji, Shan Yu’s heart calmed down. Meiji was the city he had always lived in, and it could bring him a sense of security. As for the Han army, Shan Yu believed that as long as he surrendered, he would still be able to Received the treatment in the past, and the Han people would not attack Meiji regardless of etiquette.

The generals in the tent congratulated Lu Yi one after another. Before the war between the Han and the Hungarians, Lu Yi was just an unknown general in the army. Ding Tai kept suppressing him, and now he says he is sick at home.

Lu Yi has become a hot figure in Bingzhou, and compliments are endless.

"My lord, there are [-] Xianbei troops outside the Yanmen Pass. I'm afraid it will be difficult for General Zhou to hold the pass. It is better to send troops to rescue as soon as possible." Lu Yi cupped his hands and said.

Ding Tai cleared his throat and took back Guangyan and Guluo. He was also full of pride. The mighty Huns collapsed under the mighty Bingzhou Army. Good luck, you are really a blessed general of the Han Dynasty, my lord ordered you to be the prefect of Yanmen, and take full charge of the battle against Xianbei, do you dare to do it?" At this time, Ding Yi, the prefect of Yanmenguan, was a member of the Ding family.

"Oh, I'm afraid this matter can't be left to the adults to decide." A voice from under the tent attracted the attention of all Bingzhou officials. In Bingzhou, no one had ever dared to speak wild words in front of Ding Tai.

Ding Tai said angrily: "Who are you? How dare you talk nonsense in our army tent, come here, take this man out and behead him!"

Lu Yi's complexion changed slightly, and he stood calmly behind the arrogant general, and said loudly: "Ding Taiwude, I have joined the Xiliang Army, and this is General Guo, the commander of the Xiliang Army. "

Hearing Lu Yi's roar, Ding Tai's complexion became surprisingly ugly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Well, Lu Yi, my lord treats you well, why did you go against me?"

Lu Yi sneered and said, "You are not treating me badly. You just saw how many times I have won battles. What were you doing when the Xianbei attacked Yanmen Pass? What were you doing when the Xiongnu rebelled? You only know about fish and meat." Common people, it is because of officials like you that the big man has the current situation."

An abnormal blush flashed on Ding Tai's face, and he shouted: "Come here, take these two people out and behead them for public display, come here."

After shouting one after another, no soldier appeared in the tent for a long time.

The army is already completely under the control of Lu Yi and the Xiliang army. As for the generals in the army who are close to Ding Tai, they are degraded or detained by Lu Yi under various names. Speaking of which, the soldiers of Bingzhou and Liangzhou are still It has something to do with it, many soldiers have no complaints about joining the Xiliang Army, Jia Rong's identity is there, the general has the right to mobilize the world's troops, and his name is justified.

For the princes from all walks of life, this sentence may not be effective, but in the hearts of the soldiers at the bottom, the general is the one who is superior.

In an instant, Ding Tai realized that the current Bingzhou might not be what he said it would be, and he sat on the ground helplessly, all his efforts over the years were in vain.

Suddenly, Ding Tai pulled out the sword from his waist, staggered towards Lu Yi, and shouted: "It's all you, it's all you!"

With a flash of sword light, the vitality in Ding Tai's eyes gradually disappeared, and he lay powerlessly on the ground.

Guo Si sighed and said: "General Lu, why bother, Mr. Ding is also a hero for a while."

Having said that, there was no trace of regret in Guo Si's eyes.

"My lord is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. The Xiliang Army under his command is a mighty soldier in hundreds of battles. Considering that it has been difficult for you to govern and merge the state over the years, anyone who joins the Xiliang Army will temporarily assume the original position regardless of previous suspicions, pending the decision of the general." Guo Si said There was a kind smile on his face, "Don't worry, as long as you are talented, my lord will not bury you, but if you are a corrupt official, you'd better control your own hands and feet, otherwise, try to see if the sword in the general's hand is sharp, I believe that everyone here has heard about the treatment of officials under the general's rule."

The power is weaker than others, and the Bingzhou officials in the tent chose to give in. Ding Tai did not have many officials in Bingzhou to support him. He colluded with Chen Yi and killed many officials. This time he was killed by the Xiliang Army, many officials felt a little happy .

Chen Yi stood up angrily, pointed at Lu Yi and cursed: "Master Ding treated you kindly in his lifetime, but I didn't expect you to be the one who betrayed the Lord and begged for glory. I hate that I didn't see your true face, otherwise I would kill you!" die."

When Lu Yi heard this, his face changed drastically, and he was about to step forward with his sword.

Guo Si stopped Lu Yi from moving, stepped forward and said, "I don't know the name of this lord?"

"Chen Yi, don't drive in Bingzhou, kill if you want, and never frown." Chen Yi gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Yi behind Guo Si.

All the Bingzhou officials and generals in the tent felt ashamed of Chen Yi's loyalty, and many of them bowed their heads.

"Hmph, Chen Yi, you are helping the tyrant in Bingzhou, intending to murder our army. When the war broke out, you didn't want to serve the country and the people, but killed each other. People like this should be killed!" Guo Si said.

With a flash of sword light, it was Guo Si who killed Chen Yi himself.

Ding Tai colluded with the Xiongnu, and General Lu Yi stepped forward and killed him. He remembered his contribution to governing Bingzhou, buried him generously, and spread the word in the city.

The Xiliang army took over Bingzhou in good faith, and Zhang Zhao sent officials to govern the area one after another, but it didn't cause any disturbance.

Hearing the arrival of the Xiliang army, the families from all over Bingzhou were also panicked. Jia Rong was a well-known ruthless man who always spared no effort to deal with the families, which caused many families to leave.

For several days in a row, the aristocratic family felt relieved when they saw that the Xiliang Army was not looking for trouble. The people were the happiest. Come on, it’s the same as the pie falling in the world, the tax is extremely low, if the land is cultivated, there will be no tax for the first three years, and the people can’t believe it for a while. When the farming season is busy, the Xiliang Army will send soldiers to help the people plow the land. Cheers and cheers, as for Ding Tai and Chen Yi, who used to be aloof, he had nothing to do with them. What the people cared about was whether they had three meals a day and whether their place of residence was safe.

There were only more than 500 Han troops in the Yanmen Pass, and some soldiers were seriously injured and went into battle.

Knowing that there was no hope of survival, a soldier of the Han army jumped down holding a Xianbei soldier who climbed up the city wall. Zhou Yi's eyes were blurred when he saw a blood-soaked Pao Ze who was still fighting the enemy.

"General, General, General Lu Yi is here with 5000 troops, General Lu Yi is here with 5000 troops." The soldier who sent the order burst into tears as he spoke.

Zhou Yi grabbed the soldier and shouted, "You mean reinforcements are coming?"

The soldier nodded repeatedly.

Zhou Yi looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "The sky will not kill me, the sky will not kill me!"

"Brothers, hold on to the city wall. Five thousand reinforcements led by General Lu Yi have arrived. As long as we hold on for a while, we will win."

The defenders who closed the gate may not know who Lu Yi is, but the five thousand reinforcements listened carefully. After many days of fierce fighting, reinforcements finally arrived, and the morale of the defenders on the city was greatly shaken. The Xianbei soldiers retreated steadily.

Seeing Lu Yi's banner, Zhou Yi's face changed drastically, he grabbed the ring-shoulder knife from the soldier's hand, pointed at Lu Yi and cursed: "Shameless bastard, you actually joined the Xiliang Army!"
