Although Yunzhun gritted his teeth and endured several punishments from Gu Yuetian, he finally revealed his plan for the attack.
After hearing this, King Wuyou and Qi Lu looked at each other and smiled.
On the tower of Chongqing City, the soldiers on the lookout called Yang Yun, saying that they saw a group of grain and grass vehicles entering the Qi army camp. Yang Yun hurriedly climbed up the tower and watched intently. However, he saw that there was nothing unusual in the Qi camp.
I was also shocked and confused.
Yang Yun had been watching upstairs for a long time, and suddenly a sharp-eyed Shu soldier shouted: "Marshal, look, there's a fire over there!"
Yang Yun looked as the soldiers pointed, and sure enough, there was a fire burning where the grain carts entered. The fire became bigger and bigger, and then he saw the Qi army rising up in chaos. Yang Yun couldn't help but feel something in his heart, and turned to the side
The general sent an order and quickly gathered his elite troops, preparing to go out of the city to attack and kill.
Yang Yun continued to watch on the tower, and then he saw a group of grain and grass carts rushing out from the Qi army, followed by a group of Qi army chasing them.
Yang Yun vaguely looked at his brother Yang Zhun in front of him, and saw that the Qi army behind him was pursuing closely, so he concluded that Yang Zhun had successfully attacked the Qi army's grain and grass convoy, and accordingly sneaked into the Qi camp's grain and grass depot and set fire to the Qi army's grain and grass convoy.
He also stole the food and fodder of the Qi army and wanted to transport it back to Chongqing. So Yang Yun quickly sent an order, and the Shu army in the city followed him out to join Yang Zhun and counterattack the Qi army.
Twenty thousand Shu troops and light cavalry had already assembled in the city. Yang Yun also mounted his horse, raised his gun, ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and rushed out of Chongqing City with a single order.
Yang Yun took the lead and rushed forward. From a distance, he could see Yang Zhun rushing in front. Yang Zhun seemed to be galloping towards him desperately, with his mouth wide open but unable to make a sound. Look at his swing.
His hands seemed to prevent him from passing by. Yang Yun was stunned for a moment, but at this moment, a general of the Qi army bent his bow and nocked an arrow. Yang Zhun fell off his horse.
Seeing this scene, Yang Yun could no longer care about anything else, and urged his horses to rush forward to save Yang Zhun. The Shu army behind him also followed closely, waiting to meet the Qi army who was chasing the grain truck.
Then, the Shu army started fighting with the Qi army. The Shu army was powerful, and the pursuing Qi army was less than three to five thousand people. They resisted for a while and then retreated. Yang Yun ordered the Shu army to take advantage of the momentum to pursue and defeat the Qi army.
Yang Yun arrived in front of Yang Zhun who was lying on the ground, jumped off his horse in a hurry, and picked up Yang Zhun. He saw that Yang Zhun was hit by an arrow. The sharp arrow passed through the back of the heart and the tip of the arrow was exposed from the front of the heart. Yang Yun gradually knew this.
Yang Zhun was still dead, and there was no reason for him to survive. Yang Yun felt dizzy and almost fell down. Yang Zhun, his mother, and brothers had been fighting on the battlefield together for many years. Now he asked Yang Zhun to sneak attack the Qi army, but unexpectedly Yang Zhun was in the middle.
Death by an arrow, brotherly love is deep, and Yang Yun felt sad from it. The Shu army around him hurriedly stepped forward, supported Yang Yun, took Yang Zhun's body, put it on the horse, and prepared to transport it back to Chongqing.
The Shu army had already pursued the Qi army camp, and dozens of grain and grass carts were abandoned at the scene. Yang Yunqiang braced himself, got on his horse, and slowly walked towards the convoy. There were more than a hundred Shu army soldiers guarding the grain and grass carts.
When they saw Yang Yun coming forward, they all greeted him with greetings.
Yang Yun saw that the soldiers' uniforms were stained with blood, and he also knew that they must have been fighting for a long time in the Qi army. He secretly regretted it, thinking that if he had left the city earlier to respond, his brother would never have died. Yang Yun secretly thought to himself
Feeling sad, he cheered up and said to the soldiers who were guarding the food and grass: "You risked your life to attack and kill the Qi army's food and grass. You also burned the Qi army's camp and took the food and grass back. I will fight for you."
Please take credit!”
Some soldiers shouted: "Marshal, we have captured a lot of food and grass this time, and we have also burned the Qi army's food and grass fields. Come and see the food and grass we have captured."
Yang Yun was about to lead the soldiers around him to attack the Qi camp. Hearing the shouts of the Shu soldiers driving the carriage, he felt the need to appease these Shu soldiers, so he urged his horses to come forward. When the Shu soldiers saw Yang Yun coming, they jumped down one after another.
When the car came, he stood by the car, waiting for Yang Yun to come over. Although Yang Yun died as a brother, he still forced himself to smile with approval when facing a group of soldiers who had just returned from the battlefield.
When Yang Yun arrived in front of the grain cart, a soldier bowed again and asked: "Marshal, how much reward can we receive when we go back this time?"
When Yang Yun was asked, he laughed, pointed at him and said, "You can be promoted to captain, and you will receive generous rewards!" The soldier also laughed and said to Yang Yun: "Marshal,
How about my reward at this time?"
Yang Yun was stunned, looked at him intently, and asked: "What do you want?!"
The soldier looked at Yang Yun, then pointed at Yang Yun's head and said, "I want the marshal's head on his head!"
At first, Yang Yun thought that he had heard wrongly, but when he saw that the Shu soldiers in front of him were really unfamiliar and their words were strange, he thought to himself that it was not good and hurriedly wanted to get back on his horse and leave this group of soldiers. But because
It was too late, and the fodder and grain bags on the grain carts were thrown to both sides, and arrows and crossbows with a cold light and soldiers holding spears emerged from the carts.
The soldiers of the Shu army who were originally standing in front of the carriage squatted down one after another. The machine in the carriage sounded, and thousands of crossbow arrows were shot out. The soldiers holding spears also threw their spears at the Shu army in front of them.
Yang Yun was less than twenty steps away from the convoy. He was so close and was shot by such a dense crossbow. Yang Yun almost didn't have time to react before he was hit by dozens of sharp arrows. Even his mount was hit by dozens of sharp arrows.
They were shot with crossbow arrows. None of the Shu army generals who followed Yang Yun were spared. They were all hit by crossbow arrows. Although those generals were also wearing armor, they were too close to react or dodge. And the carriage
The crossbow arrows fired from the armor are fired by mechanical springs, and are more powerful than human power. Almost all of the crossbow arrows penetrate the armor, penetrate deeply into the body, and some even pass through the body.
There were hundreds of Shu troops gathered on both sides of the convoy. Almost all of them were hit by crossbows or spears. The soldiers fell off their horses and fell to the ground. The Shu troops behind were shocked when they saw this scene, but when they saw Yang Yun
When the generals fell from their horses, they also knew that they had been ambushed by the Qi army. They panicked for a while, and the crouching Shu soldiers shouted: Yang Yun is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed! Then they untied themselves beside the grain and grass cart.
The horses jumped on their horses, brandished their weapons and charged at the Shu army with shouts. The Shu army was still in disarray and fled into the city one after another.
The Shu army who had already rushed to the Qi army's camp suddenly encountered a hail of arrows from the Qi army's camp. The Shu army in front was shot through by random arrows, and the horses behind them rushed up and trampled over them.
, those who landed had almost no chance of survival. There was also a cry of killing from the Qi Army camp, and neat groups of Qi Army heavy armored cavalry rushed out from the camp.
In front of the Shu army, there was an attack by the heavy armored cavalry of the Qi army, and later they heard that the marshal had been killed. They were in chaos, and everyone turned their horses and fled towards Yucheng.
The Qi army's heavily armored troops were in the center and pursued them. Countless light cavalry also came out from both wings, smashing the Shu army into pieces. The Shu army was either killed or dismounted and knelt down to surrender. Thousands of them fled as fast as they could.
They have almost fled to the gate of Yucheng.
The Shu army in the city of Chongqing first saw the generalissimo leading his troops out of the city to meet the grain and grass convoy, and then they had covered up the Qi army's camp; but suddenly they saw the Shu army beside the convoy falling one after another, and then the Qi army killed them from the camp.
When they came out, the Shu army was robbed and killed by the Qi army. A part of the Shu army had already arrived outside the city gate.
The Shu army general guarding the city gate was originally waiting for the marshal to return victoriously, but now he saw the defeated army. The general hurriedly ordered the city gate to be opened to take the defeated army back to the city. The Shu army rushed to the city gate, but
The people and horses were so crowded that not many people could withdraw at the moment, and the Qi army had already arrived. The guard wanted to close the city gate again, but he was attacked by the influx of Shu troops and could not close the city gate at all. The guard general
He was also brave enough to order the Qianjin gate to be lowered and the suspension bridge to be pulled up to prevent the defeated army from entering again and prevent the Qi army from pursuing them into the city.
As the general's order was issued, the thousand-jin gate inside the city gate suddenly fell. Some soldiers were pressed by the thousand-jin gate and turned into meat. The soldiers behind were blocked outside, and the Shu army watched.
There was no hope of returning to the city, so he yelled and cursed loudly and hurriedly fled to both sides. He hoped that the one could retreat into the city through other gates.
The Qi army chased behind them and just killed, but some Shu troops saw that the situation was not good, so they stopped resisting and fled, dismounted, disarmed, and surrendered. Those Shu troops who wanted to escape back to the city desperately fled to the next city gate.
The defenders in Chongqing City hurriedly took precautions and prepared to resist the Qi army's siege. The scene at this time was chaotic. Two Shu troops fled desperately in front, followed closely by the Qi army. The Shu army
After fleeing to the other two city gates, the Shu troops in the city did not dare to open the gate again, and those Shu troops could only withdraw towards the last gate.
Next to the grain and grass cart, King Wuyou and Qi Lu came close with their guards. There were soldiers carrying the bodies of Yang Yun and the Shu army generals together. King Wuyou looked at Yang Yun who was covered with crossbow arrows, and gently
Shaking his head, he ordered the soldiers to sort out Yang Yun's body carefully and transport it back to the camp first.
King Wuyou looked at Yang Yun and said to Qi Lu: "Brother Lu, a general will inevitably die on the battlefield! This Yang Yun is also a famous general of his generation. He is almost unbeatable in Shu. But a general is not afraid of thousands of troops, but of an inch of iron.
Facing the rain of crossbows, he had no chance of survival."
Qi Lu also nodded and said, "Brother Si, I understand what you mean."
King Wuyou immediately sent an order and the army was ready to attack the city. According to his opinion, the Shu army should attack this time with 20,000 people, and they were all the elite light cavalry of the Shu army. In this way, there were already less than 20,000 people guarding the city of Chongqing.
The city of Chongqing is surrounded by walls and has only 20,000 people. The defense is really not adequate. At this time, the Shu army is in chaos and it is the best opportunity to take advantage of the victory.
The soldiers of the Qi army received military orders and heard that the marshal of the Shu army had been shot to death by the prince. Naturally, their morale was greatly boosted. Under the leadership of the generals of the Qi army, they prepared their siege equipment with high spirits and shouted like Chongqing Kill.
Come.
At this time, there were less than 20,000 Shu troops in Chongqing City. The generals of the Shu army guarding the four city gates naturally knew that the Qi army was absolutely determined to win the city this time. The Shu army, with 40,000 to 50,000 men, found it difficult to defend Chongqing City.
Now with only this small force, facing the Qi army, it seems that the only option is to die in battle or surrender.
The Qingqi of the Qi army who originally pursued the Shu army had received the message from the order flag, gave up the pursuit, and retreated to the rear, while the siege troops attacked Yucheng.
