Chapter 54 Retreat
Sangma was at a loss, and Uncle Wu looked at Xu Yan.
After a moment of silence in the tent, Xu Yan was curious about what Xubu Yun was going to do. Now he was surrounded by his own people and had no worries, so he said, "Uncle Wu, go down and rest!"
After the two left, Xu Yan sat on the couch and said, "Come out, everyone is gone!"
The footsteps sounded, and Subu Yun walked out, wearing a white cloak, wrapping her whole body around.
Just when Xu Yan was confused, the cloak slowly fell, and there was only a red gauze dress inside, highlighting his enchanting figure.
The fair and jade-like skin appeared faintly, and looked charming under the dim candlelight. Xubuyun's cheeks were slightly red, his eyebrows and eyes were full of charm.
Xu Yan was stunned for a moment and asked her: "What are you doing?"
"Don't it look good?" Xubu Yun walked around in the spot.
Xu Yan looked weird and didn't say anything.
Xubu Yun walked to him and sat down. A faint fragrance blew over, just like her dressing at this time, very attractive.
She picked up the wine pot and poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Xu Yan: "Today's heavy snow is blocking the road, it's time to drink, General, please!"
Xu Yan took it, but did not drink it, but put it back on the table.
"Afraid that I'll take medicine?"
"kindness!"
He was so straightforward that Xubu Yun let out a coquettish voice, picked up the wine and drank it, and a hint of flush appeared on his fair cheeks: "Don't you feel at ease now?"
Xu Yan was not used to this atmosphere and asked straight to the point: "What's the matter with me?"
"I am lonely late at night, and I am afraid, so I want to chat with the general!"
"hehe!"
I guess she doesn't believe this.
Xubu Yun leaned beside him: "I have always had a doubt, so please answer the general!"
Xu Yan signaled to her and Xubu Yun said softly: "When the sacrifice was held that day, the little woman heard a loud bang, and then she learned that more than half of the guards of Wang Ting were killed or injured. This was definitely not something that manpower could do. How did the general do it?"
"I am a god and can do magic!"
"General, don't make trouble, I'm really curious!"
"Look, if you tell you that you don't believe me, what if you do?" Xu Yan spread his hands.
"Then can the general use this spell again?
"you guess?"
Knowing that he was teasing her, Subu Yun bit her lip with a look of anger.
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Xubu Yun slowly stood up: "The general came to the grassland from afar, and the little woman failed to entertain him. A dance music was dedicated to the general. May the general be prosperous in martial arts!"
After saying that, she gave a tribute and danced gracefully. Although there was no music, she was extremely gentle and charming.
The fragrance in the air became stronger, and it seemed to be orchid fragrance, which smelled very nice.
Xu Yan pulled his clothes and felt a little hot. His eyes couldn't help but stare at her fair and jade-like skin, and his body gradually became tighter.
The gauze faded away at some point, leaving only the shallow and short underwear. Subu Yun gradually approached him and finally climbed up to his neck.
The seductive red lips were so close that Xu Yan was so hot that he suddenly realized something was wrong, and suddenly grabbed her neck and said hurriedly: "You drug me!"
Xubuyun's expression changed slightly, showing a hint of panic, but it was more in line with his body. He explained it hard: "It's just a kind of love aid, harmless! The king of Zuo Wenyu was dead. I need a child to inherit his tribe, otherwise I will become a toy between the royal family... Please help me!"
Her soft begging made Xu Yan's breathing heavier. Her palm touched the smooth skin and a fire surged in her heart.
In fact, he was always on guard against her. He never touched the tea she handed over, and ignored it after several temptations.
But I was still caught today, and the problem was obviously lies in the fragrance!
"General, I'm yours tonight!"
With this sentence, the flames in front of me exploded, drowning the last trace of reason.
...
...
Tongguan, which was quiet in the past, was covered with corpses and smoke.
Huns rushed over, carrying long ladders and dense rain of arrows, climbing up the city one after another.
The Jin army in the city fought to the death, throwing the stones and rolling wood all the time, and some people supported the bamboo poles and pushed down the ladders. The shrill screams made people's scalp numb.
However, all kinds of methods still could not stop the madness of the Huns. They bit their swords with their teeth, climbed up the ladder with their hands and feet, and climbed up the city wall without fear of death.
In an instant, close forces were fought and the battle became even more tragic.
Gao Hongnian chopped off a Hun barbarian with one knife, then raised his foot and kicked the man hard in the heart. The Hun barbarian groaned, pressed his back against the edge of the wall, and fainted.
Gao Hongnian was about to step forward to finish him, when a cold light suddenly flashed on his left, and another Hun barbarian slashed his sword.
Gao Hongnian immediately stopped and rushed forward with a knife with his backhand. He heard a "clang" sound, and the blades collided. The powerful and heavy blow shocked him, and the back of the knife hit his shoulder.
Facing the ferocious gaze of the Hun barbarians, Gao Hongnian shouted violently, and suddenly used force to force his arms to set up a long sword, then slid to the left. At the moment when the two people were intertwined, the cold long sword pierced the chest of the Hun barbarians and swallowed his life.
Pulling out the straight knife, Gao Hongnian stepped forward and rushed towards a gap in the city wall.
At this time, his body was covered in blood and his armor was broken, but his eyes were firm and decisive and fearless.
More Hun barbarians rushed over, screaming, slashing and slashing, blood splattering, and eventually becoming dead bodies on the ground.
The siege lasted for two hours until the sound of the horn sounded, and the Hun barbarians slowly retreated.
Gao Hongnian sat on the ground in exhaustion, gasping for breath, allowing his personal guard to bandage his wounds.
“How is the situation?”
"A total of seven cities on both sides of the east and west were broken. Our army killed 41200 people and injured 345 people!"
"How many people do we have?"
"There are less than 30,000 people, including the wounded soldiers!"
"Is there any reply to the letter of help sent to Chang'an?"
"No!"
"Send it again!"
"General, this is the sixth letter of help we send. The court clearly knew that the 80,000 imperial guards in Chang'an City just watched us fight with the Huns, but ignored them. The soldiers who came back said that the ministers, nobles, and wealthy families in the court were all packing their luggage. They followed the Empress Dowager and His Majesty to escape to Luoyang!"
The guard cried, "General, we have been abandoned!"
Gao Hongnian's eyes were red, and he punched the city wall, roaring: "Shut up!"
The guard raised his hand to wipe away the tears, gritted his teeth and stopped talking.
Gao Hongnian leaned dejectedly against the city wall, looking at the gray sky in the distance, a sense of powerlessness filled his heart.
After the wound was bandaged, he pushed away the support of his personal guard and stood up alone.
All the soldiers around him looked at him. They were all dressed in broken clothes and had broken armor, covered in wounds, and their eyes were full of confusion.
Gao Hongnian took a deep breath and said loudly: "Tongguan is the gateway to Guanzhong. Behind us are millions of Guanzhong people. They are unarmed and have no armor. The Huns are bloodthirsty. Once they cross Tongguan, our parents, wife and children will be slaughtered, and our territory in the Great Jin Dynasty will be divided into pieces!"
"Our soldiers, who eat the king's salary, are loyal to the country, only die!"
"The Huns are powerful and we can't wait. However, if we want to pass through Tongguan, we need to step past our bodies and stomp our bones!"
"Fight to the death!!"
The expressions of the soldiers turned into perseverance, and their shouts echoed in the mountains!
The next few days, the Huns continued to attack the city, and the Jin army showed unsatisfactory resilience. They broke the knife and bit them with their teeth. If they couldn't bite them, they would hug them and die together.
All kinds of behaviors are terrifying.
Although the Huns had a large population, their continuous attacks also caused heavy losses and they had to rest.
This also gave Jin army time to breathe.
Gao Hongnian did not relax at all. He ate and slept in the city every day. That night, the fire in the Huns camp was bright and lasted all night, and I don’t know what he was doing.
The next morning, just dawn, the Jin army raised their eyes and looked at them, and suddenly found that the Huns camp was empty and the building was empty.
The Huns retreated!
Retreat without warning!
The cavalry waiting to be investigated returned to report, and the Jin army on the city wall burst into great cheers, and many people cried with joy.
"Take it again!"
Gao Hongnian was still worried because this was too abnormal. He did not believe it completely until the spies discovered the Hun army ten miles away and were rushing back to the grassland.
Chapter completed!
