(Thanks to qin111 for its monthly ticket support, thank you!)

The heavy snow that had lasted for many days finally stopped. Early in the morning, the sky was full of red clouds and the sky was clear. The 6,000 cavalry of the two vanguards of Tuoba and Helian were the first to arrive at the city of Shanyang.

The vanguard cavalry slowly approached, like a group of locusts in the sky.

On the vast horizon, Shanyang City, the capital of Shuozhou, became clearer and taller. The city walls were towering and arrow towers were lined with arrows. As a big city outside the border, Shuozhou City was tall and majestic and had a large population. The two tribes of Helian and Tuoba who arrived first wanted to capture Shuozhou City first, and the troops led by Zheng Cong-sei were still one day away.

Helianduo and Tuoba Sigong did not intend to attack after Zheng Congyi's army arrived. They both wanted to capture the city first and make great contributions. Of course, entering the city first was not only for making meritorious service, but also for robbery. Last time, Cui Anqian sued the case for the excessive massacre of the city in the new city, which made both of them unhappy. However, if it was just robbery and not slaughtering the city, even Zheng Congyi would not punish them too much.

When the two foreign troops were trembling with excitement when they thought of the countless money and silk populations in the city.

After a brief discussion, Tuoba Sigong and Helianduo agreed that they would lead their troops to attack the west gate and south gate of Shanyang City respectively. The troops of the other two units did not have the advantage over Shanyang City, but the continuous victory made them a little arrogant. Li Keyong retreated without even fighting in Yanmen Pass, and Lou Fan and Xincheng were easily taken down by them. When they arrived at Shanyang City, they saw that there were not many soldiers and horses on the city, and their flags were not in order, and they looked like they were not in a closed door. They all believed that there were not many defenders in Shanyang City.

Bai Yicheng of Helian tribe reminded Helianduo. Shanyang City is not far from Mayi and Jincheng, and the three cities are a pincer force. Li Keyong and others have no choice but to retreat. They should be cautious now. It is best to wait until Zheng Cong-Zhizhong Army arrives before attacking, so as to avoid being counterattacked by the enemy, such as Zhaoyi Army, Zhenwu Army, and Fulu Army. However, Helianduo could not listen at all at this time. There was only half of their troops in Tuoba's army, but Lou Fan and Xincheng were the first contributions of Tuoba Li. If this battle was made, what would be the might of Helian tribe?

As for Li Keyong, he had already been broken now, otherwise why would he retreat without fighting in Yanmen Pass? If the Shatuo army was really as powerful as the legendary one, why would they be defeated one after another? Until now, there is only one state left?

In the afternoon, the sound of whining horns sounded, and the Tuoba tribe and Helian tribe launched an attack at the same time.

The two armies moved together, and the storm was shaking.

Under the city, Tuoba Sigong rode on the horse in front of the Dangxiang cavalry. The flags of the Dangxiang people fluttered in the wind. The flags were like the sea. With a long spear in hand, Tuoba Sigong shouted loudly: "Warriors of the Dangxiang tribe, for the Dangxiang tribe, pick up your spears and lift your scimitars. Fight! In front of you, there are countless gold and silver in the Shanyang City. If you want money and silk, you want women, pick up your swords and guns and go with me!"

After saying that, Tuoba Sigong took the lead, jumped on his horse and rushed down the city first.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooo!" As the horn sounded, two thousand Dangxiang cavalry roared and followed the horse. The snow on the ground had not yet melted, and was stepped on by iron hooves, and suddenly became muddy and splashed everywhere. The white Dangxiang cavalry rushed past, like a white wave, rushing towards the black Shanyang City, as if to submerge him.

"The Dangxiang people have already arrived, and our Tuyuhun warriors cannot fall behind. The soldiers of the Helian army, come with me!" Helianduo roared and immediately led the four thousand Helian cavalry to attack the south gate.

On the city, the one who was in charge of defending this city was the governor of Shatuo, Li Youjin. In addition, Xue Tieshan, Kang Junli, and Xue Zhiqin, three of the seven generals of Yunzhou, were also in this city. Li Youjin fled back from Yunzhou and now went to Shanyang City to command one thousand infantry in the central plains of Shanyang City. In addition, he brought three thousand infantry himself, and the three generals of Xue Tieshan also led one thousand cavalry each. Their troops reached seven thousand, but the truly most elite troops in Shanyang City belonged to two thousand elite cavalry that originally belonged to Li Cunzhang. Now these two thousand cavalry were led by Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao, making the defenders in the city reach nine thousand soldiers, including five thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry. However, on the top of the city, only the thousand guards appeared.

Li Youjin looked at the cavalry of Tuoba tribe and Helian tribe attacking, and couldn't help but sneer: "Tuoba Sigong and Helian Duo are two idiots, are they going to use cavalry to attack the city?"

"It's better for us to rush out just because we have such a few people." Xue Tieshan Road.

"No, we want to catch big fish!" Li Siyuan directly rejected the proposal later. Xue Tieshan was a little dissatisfied. In terms of reward, he was one of the seven generals of Yunzhou, and was the Yun-level general of Li Keyong. Li Siyuan was just a child. However, when it comes to thinking that Li Siyuan is very popular with Li Keyong now. This time, he and Li Sizhao's two thousand cavalry were also dominated by him. He even carried the arrows given by Li Keyong on his body, and he couldn't help but shut up in dissatisfaction.

Li You's golden face was as deep as water, and he said slowly: "Just do as Siyuan's words, let the thousand guards slowly accompany them to waste their troops, and increase their strength bit by bit. The scout came to report that Zheng Congxian's central army would arrive tomorrow morning, but Yu Congxian's 14,000 rear troops would not arrive the day after tomorrow. Just a few thousand troops from Tuoba and Helian's troops were nothing. Our goal was to eat Zheng Congxian's central army together."

When Li Youjin remembered this plan, he couldn't help but feel excited. This plan was proposed by Liu. It is said that Liu was a female general wearing a skirt and wearing a rouge. If she were a man, she would definitely be better than most men. After experiencing the defeat in Yunzhou, Li Youjin was more inclined to Liu's strategy of attacking Yunzhou directly, opening a passage and jumping out of the encirclement and escaping to the block.

Unfortunately, although Li Zhenguo had this intention, he was now on the couch and all the tribe affairs had been handed over to Li Keyong. Li Ya'er was obviously unwilling to escape into the frontier just like this. He took over as the clan leader and would never be willing to lose and flee outside the frontier as soon as he took office.

Tuoba and Helian cavalry under the city rushed to the city, and quickly relied on the riding and shooting skills of the Shatu people. They shot arrows on the city immediately. After one arrow, they immediately followed. This riding and shooting took place for most of the morning. The defenders in the city suffered heavy casualties, but Li Youjin and others didn't care. If one died, two of them could be added immediately.

Until dusk, Tuoba and Helian did not directly launch infantry attacks on the city, but kept attacking with cavalry. The purpose of the two seemed very simple, as if they had already determined that there were not many defenders in the city, and they were ready to test and confirm the virtuality and reality in the city first, while consuming part of the defenders' strength and exhausting the defenders.

Their real siege was still preparing to attack the city at night.

The night finally came, and the attacks under the city finally stopped gradually. Tuoba Sigong and Helianduo chose to attack the city at night. The two divisions each selected hundreds of elite subordinates and prepared to replay the fighting style of the previous battles.

After dark, every half an hour, the second part would attack once, and so until midnight.

Tuoba Sigong called out hundreds of soldiers who were already resting after dark. After eating and drinking, he began to attack after taking advantage of the interruption of the new feint attack.

"Governor, Dangxiang people and Tuyuhun people are preparing to sneak attack and capture the city. They are coming up." Li Siyuan came over from the top of the city and reported to Li Youjin in a low voice.

Li Youjin sat in the city tower, holding a big knife in his hand, and laughed remarkably, very gloomy and terrifying: "Are they finally here? Grandpa waited for a long time in the middle of the night and thought they didn't dare to come. He transferred the crossbow and arrows to kill them."

Amid the squeaking sound, teams of black-clad Sha Tuo soldiers appeared quietly on the top of the city. Crossbows were stomping open, and a row of metal arrows appeared on the battlements, emitting a cold and cold light, which was heartbreaking.

A row of metal arrows appeared on the battlements, emitting a cold and cold light, which made people feel heartbroken.

The Shatu soldiers quickly rolled the strings and aimed.

"It's ready!"

These crossbow machines were captured from various states, cities and troops after several consecutive victories. This time, almost all of them were transferred to Shuozhou City.

Li Sizhao was commanding the crossbowman at the top of the city. He waved his hand and said, "Shoot!"

At the Ximen City, I didn't understand what was going on. A Dangxiang soldier who had just approached the city suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, with a crossbow arrow inserted in his chest.

Immediately afterwards, Dangxiang soldiers were shot in one after another, and the injured soldiers lay all over the ground.

The arrows were getting more and more densely, and they were whizzing through Dang Xiang Bing's ears and shoulders, or a low puff sound, and then there would be a low curse moan, which was that some unlucky guy was shot.

The wooden shield was covered with cowhide and could not stop the sharp arrows. More and more people were shot. The teams in front of them obviously withered and could not maintain their formation. The casualties lay down on the ground. The injured party soldiers curled up in pain on the ground. The moans and screams of the dying people were mixed with the sharp whistle and whistle. Later, the team walked past them with expressionless expressions. The soil under their feet was soaked in blood and soft and slippery.

Without orders, even if there is a sea of ​​swords and fire in front of you, the powerful Dangxiang warriors will never take a step back.

Tuoba Sigong looked at the fallen soldiers in pain. These were the most elite soldiers, but at this time they fell down like the wind blowing rice waves. The city was prepared, and even expected that they would appear at this time.

This is an ambush that has been waiting for a long time, "retreat, evacuate!"

After a lot of effort, the five hundred elites came to raid, and in the end only a hundred people escaped from the death metal storm. He sent people to inquire about the situation on Helianduo. They were also attacked by crossbow arrows from Shatuo people at the South Gate, and the losses were more than five hundred.

In an instant, the two armies lost a thousand elite troops.
Chapter completed!
