Chapter 208

"Shut up! Now the most important thing is to defend the city, not to fight for morale. We must not allow Nanzhao troops to step into the broken snow pass. This is the purpose of guarding the border. Wait for reinforcements

The young general looked at him incredulously and asked, "is it time for reinforcements?" They had only 80000 garrisons, and the Nanzhao army surrounding them, together with the troops of Li Wang of Lingzhou, who were surrounded by them, exceeded 300000 at least. Murong Shen was silent for a moment and said firmly: "it's time, as long as we can hold the snow breaking pass. Therefore, don't engage in meaningless dispute of spirit and spirit. "

Unwilling to glance at the Nanzhao people clamoring under the city, the young general gritted his teeth and said, "yes, general."

"General!" The messenger soldiers came in a hurry, "general, report to Wu Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of Yongzhou, and led 20000 troops to reinforce the troops. Just after crossing the Yunlan River, he was ambushed and Lord Wu died! "

Everyone at the scene could not help but take a breath. Murong Shen felt that everything was whirling in front of him. He quickly stabilized himself and said, "how can it be? How could Li Wang be so quick? "

"Newspaper! General, Yongzhou prefect opened the city to surrender the king of Li last night. Early this morning, King Li's army broke through Qingyuan City, and the vanguard troops were afraid that they would arrive outside Yonglin city this evening. " The generals' hearts were filled with excitement. Originally, there were not many garrisons in Yongzhou. As the highest official of Yongzhou, Yongzhou prefect actually demoted the king of Li. No wonder the army of King Li was able to break through all the way. I didn't think it would last ten days if I came so fast. I'm afraid that if I can't wait for another two days, the broken snow pass will be surrounded. Thinking of this, people are cold. Murong Shen angrily responded with a smile, "good! What a prefect of Yongzhou! Who is willing to defend Yonglin city

Several young generals appeared at the same time, "general, my subordinates are willing to go!"

Murong Shen took a look at the young man in front of him, nodded his head and said, "OK, Yunting, Xia Shu, I'll give you 20000 people to guard Yonglin. Do you understand? "

"Yes, general." The two young men responded in unison. After receiving the military order, they turned around and went out. No one asked how to hold Yonglin and how long it would take for 20000 people. Looking at the back of the two young people going out, Murong Shen glanced at the generals present and said, "we are the same, keep the broken snow pass. Do you understand? "

"Yes! General. "

Yonglin Town, which used to be quiet, is now in a state of awe. Shops on both sides of the street are closed, and even half a pedestrian is missing. Compared with the dreariness and depression of closing the door with broken snow, Yonglin city is already full of blood. Under the city wall, the siege soldiers who set up ladders tried to climb up the wall, but they were forced down again with stones and bows and arrows on the tower. The people in front of him fell down, and there were people in the back who made up for them one after another. The soldiers on the tower were also shot down from time to time by the archers below, and they fell beyond recognition. At this time, no one went back to care about these, all people can only fight madly. Everyone has forgotten that they are also from the big Chu state and were once classmates. One pair, only you die, I live.

"How about it? Shall I go first? " On the wall, two young generals looked solemn.

"First of all Pulling out the sword, the young general turned away.

The one who was left looked at the far away man with a helpless snort, turned and drew a knife and cut down a man who wanted to climb the city tower while the soldier guarding the city was shot.

The gate of the city was opened, and the young general rushed out with a team of men and horses, rushed into the enemy's formation, and dashed to reduce the pressure on the wall. The young general was the first to kill countless people all the way. Soon a burly looking middle-aged man blocked his way. The middle-aged man swept away the people around him with a big knife in his hand and said with a laugh: "is there no one under murongshen? How could you send a kid who is still in his infancy to stop the general's way! If you are wise, please open Yonglin city to me immediately. I will spare you forever The young general sneered, "I don't accept nameless ghosts. Where is the thief from? I will leave you a whole body

"My general is the vanguard of the Western army, Sun Wei, who is personally appointed by his highness King Li."

The little general rolled his eyes. "It turns out that it's the traitor of Mo Jingli, Sun Wei I haven't heard of it. I'll die The long sword in his hand was quick and fierce, and mercilessly cleaved to the man who claimed to be the vanguard of the Western army. For a while, the man was in a hurry and finally died in the hands of his contemptuous little boy. The young general disdained spat sound, "pussy bag one, also dare to flaunt one's strength in front of the young master?" When the vanguard was cut off, the army attacking the city was in chaos. The generals who guarded the city took the opportunity to kill them. Soon, the attacking troops retreated in a hurry.

"How about Xia Shu?" Back in the city, looking at the enemy's retreat in a mess, the young general who has just displayed his skills to express his melancholy over the past few days is illegal. The young man called Xia Shu frowned at the distance and said, "this should be the first to explore the way in front of the other party. Although they were killed back, when the real elite came The young general could not help but frown, and the joy of just winning gradually dissipated. Let alone hundreds of thousands of troops, even hundreds of thousands of pigs can trample them to death. It is already very difficult for 20000 people to defend the city, let alone go out of the city to meet the enemy. Yonglin city is no better than the broken snow pass. If they can't stick to it, the army of Li Wang may bypass Yonglin town first. Although it's a little troublesome, it's not impossible. Once they have won the snow breaking pass, their lonely city with only 20000 people is the thing in the bag."Whatever he is, call him back when he comes! I'm not a man who is afraid of life and death! " The young general hummed.

Xia Shu also gradually showed a smile, "well said. Let's say it's up to me next time. "

Perhaps it was because the vanguard troops in front of them were defeated, and the soldiers and horses in the back came more slowly than they thought. It was not until the next morning that they heard the sound of war drums coming from outside the city. Xia Shu and Yun Ting stood on the tower and looked down. Yun Ting couldn't help but take a breath, "did Mo Jingli get all the soldiers and horses in Lingzhou out?" Yonglin city is not open in front of it, but looking at the swaying banners and dense figures, people do not want to estimate the number. Xia Shu said in a low voice: "I heard that the king of Li was a straw bag when I was in the capital, but now it doesn't seem to be so." Looking at the troops and horses of the king Li under the city, they were in a rigorous and orderly array, but in fact, they were very dense. It doesn't look like an army that a straw bag can bring out. Cloud Ting curled his mouth and said: "either he has a master, or he pretends to be a fool. Can straw bags start a rebellion? That's a madman. "

Several people in the other party's array clapped their horses out. One of the middle-aged men, who was obviously not a general, called out to the upstairs, "the guard General of the upstairs will listen, and immediately open the gate to let us go."

Cloud Ting quipped, "who are you? Do you want to let it go? "

The middle-aged man said, "I am the prefect of Yongzhou. Yongzhou has been attached to his highness King Li. If you don't open the gate immediately, please welcome his highness to enter the city!" Hearing this, cloud Ting couldn't help but scolded, "who do you think it is? This traitor. Heaven has a way, you don't go. When you become a traitor, you should know how to find a place to shrink and dare to show off. " The backhand pulls out the bow and arrow behind the soldier next to him. He shoots at the Yongzhou prefect without hesitation.
