The last three kingdoms

Chapter 104 Military Orders Are Like Mountains
After night fell, Xu Yi was forced to withdraw his troops. The exhausted Wei soldiers were finally able to withdraw from the front line, but countless robes were lying under the city of Yang'an Pass forever.

The Shu Army at Yang'an Pass made Wei Bing, who had been on a smooth journey before, finally see the tenacity of the Shu Army. In front of this great pass, the arrogant Wei Jun had to lower his proud head.

However, Xu Yi is not a person who can easily admit defeat. On the second day, he mobilized all the reserves, and almost 3 troops were engaged in the siege operation. All the Wei soldiers in the city had shields on their heads. Looking from the city, they seemed to be tortoise shells moving slowly, boundlessly.

Although tortoise shells can effectively resist bows and arrows, they have little effect on heavy defensive weapons such as rolling wood and rocks. Rolling down all the way, the Wei soldiers next to each other were either dead or injured.

The battle entered a stalemate state, both sides tried their best, and a narrow city wall staged scenes of life-and-death duels.

On the third day, Xu Yi was really impatient, but he issued a military order in front of Zhong Hui's tent, and he could not take Yang'an Pass within three days and let it be dealt with by military law.Xu Yi signed the military order nonchalantly at the beginning. In his opinion, taking down Yang'an Pass is a piece of cake.

But I never thought that the defenders of Yang'an Pass would be so tenacious. After three days of continuous attack, the Wei army paid the price of thousands of casualties, and they would not be able to advance an inch. So far, they have not even touched the top of Yang'an Pass. This made Xu Yi depressed and anxious.

Regardless of the lieutenant general's dissuasion, Xu Yi held the shield in her left hand and the ring sword in her right hand, and committed suicide at the gate of the city.

The generals were able to take the lead, and Wei Jun, whose morale was a little bit frustrated, was immediately encouraged, followed behind Xu Yi, and launched a new round of offensive with shouts.

Xu Yi was wearing solid armor and a big shield on his head. He was already wide and fat, but with the thick armor and the square shield that could cover most of his body, when he stepped on the bamboo ladder, the ladder immediately became unbearable. It made a creaking sound under heavy load.But Xu Yi didn't have the slightest intention of shrinking back, her tiger eyes were wide open, she stepped on the ladder with great strides, and climbed up with all her strength.

The Wei soldiers also frantically climbed up the city as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Having just repelled a wave of Wei Jun's attack, Fu Qian just wanted to catch his breath, but found that Wei Jun had launched a charge again, and this time seemed to attack more violently than ever.

Fu Qian glanced down. Although he didn't know Xu Yi, Xu Yi's identity must be different from Xu Yi's armor and the surrounding guards. Although Fu Qian could not be sure that this person was the vanguard officer of the Wei Army, But at least he is also a person who has a certain status in the Wei army.When shooting people, shoot horses first, and when capturing thieves, first capture the king. Since he is coming to die, Fu Qian is not polite.

On Xu Yi's shield, there are already many feathered arrows inserted. The thick shield has blocked Xu Yi's several fatal attacks. Finally, he was not attacked by those heavy weapons. He climbed very fast, and he had already climbed half of the wall in an instant, and he was getting closer and closer to the top of the city.

Fu Qian saw clearly that Xu Yi had big shoulders and round waist. Although the shield was big enough, it was obviously too tight to completely cover Xu Yi's huge body. If you moved to the left, your right arm would inevitably be exposed; Lost protection.Fu Qian was looking at this gap, and seeing Xu Yi's shield move a little to the right, he immediately pulled the bow and arrow, loosened the bowstring, and the arrow, like a shooting star, hit Xu Yi's left shoulder impartially.

"Ah!" Xu Yi yelled in pain, lost her balance all of a sudden, and fell from mid-air.

Everyone turned pale with shock. How could they survive a fall from such a high distance?
But Xu Yi was lucky. When he fell, his butt was facing down, and there were two backrests underneath. Xu Yi threw himself on the two soldiers and crushed them to pieces on the spot. cake.With these two meatloaf at the bottom, Fatty Xu managed to pick one back even though he was thrown into a mess.

The soldiers guarding Xu Yi were terrified, they gathered together immediately, and hurriedly carried him back, while carrying him, they did not forget to use a shield to cover him, in case of arrows.

"Come here, bring a rolling log over here!" Seeing that the arrow did not kill Xu Yi, Fu Qian immediately ordered to prepare the rolling log loudly. If he threw a rolling log down at this time, the group of people would have no chance of escape.

"Report to the general, the logs here are used up!" A soldier reported to Fu Qian.

Fu Qian glanced at it. The battle was too fierce. The rolling stones here had already been thrown away. If they were transported from other places, it was obviously too late. Fu Qian watched Xu Yi escape from the range of the bow and arrow. , can't help but sigh with regret, an excellent lore opportunity was missed just like this.

Xu Yi got an arrow on the shoulder, but it missed the vital point, she pulled out the arrow and applied the golden wound medicine, and it was no longer a serious problem.It was a miracle that he was unscathed after falling from such a high place.

However, Xu Yi was injured and retreated, and the offensive momentum of the entire Wei army immediately withered. They all retreated one after another, and the siege operation on the third day came to a sad end.

As soon as Xu Yi returned to the camp, she heard the roar of battle horses behind the camp, and there was a great deal of voices. It turned out that General Zhenxi Zhong Hui had arrived with the main force.

Zhong Huizi sat down in the commander's camp and ordered the generals to go to the commander's camp to discuss matters.

Xu Yi walked into the camp with anxiety, Zhong Hui and all the generals were present, he stepped forward and hurriedly saluted, "The last general will meet with the Commander-in-Chief."

Zhong Hui said very plainly: "Has General Xu captured Yang'an Pass?"

Xu Yi said with shame on her face, "Never."

Zhong Hui's face darkened in an instant, and he sternly said: "Since you are a pioneer, you should open the way across the mountains and attack the city. How important is Yang'an Pass, do you need to say more? You lead the army to attack During the three days in the city, many troops were lost, and the morale of our army was greatly reduced. Xu Yi, are you guilty?"

"The last general is convicted." Xu Yi's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words. Zhong Hui had always been known for his strict military management, but he had signed a military order, and his life was in his hands. How could he not be afraid?
Zhong Hui's face softened a little, and he said in a deep voice: "Xu Yi, here is a military order written by you. The military order is like a mountain, and there is no room for affection. Come here, push Xu Yi out of the gate and behead him!"
