Liu Tang took one look at the edict and immediately became furious, and then called the messenger.
"Do you know about this?"
The messengers did not dare to speak. It was obvious that they knew about it, but they only kept it from Liu Tang. This made Liu Tang so angry that he drew his sword and chopped down the messenger soldier in front of him with one blow.
"Come on, let me fight into Yanmen Pass for you!"
After reading the edict, Liu Tang did not rush back to Shu, but continued to attack, which made others confused.
"Uncle Emperor, why does the King of Tang want to attack Yanmen Pass? With his temper, shouldn't he just send his troops back to Shu to seize power?"
Helian Mochuan sneered: "How can a general who has never won a battle compete with the princess for the throne? Send the order, close the city gate tightly, and follow me!"
The city gate was closed and there were stone hammers, so the Shu army could not get close at all. Helian Mochuan led his soldiers to fight the enemy bravely, but the team ran towards the valley north of Yanmen Pass.
"Reporting to the prince, the Yan army was forced into the Chongling Valley!"
Of course Liu Tang saw it and led a group of people to the valley.
"You stay and continue to attack the city. I will personally capture this boy Helian Mochuan!"
If he could capture the regent of Yan, Liu Tang would have enough capital to seize the throne, so he galloped away on horseback alone. After entering the valley, there was no sign of the Yan army, and the king of Tang quickly stopped.
, looked around, and found that the place was full of rocks, and the road was very rugged. It would be of no benefit to the Yan army to retreat here.
Liu Tang looked up at the top of the valley again, screaming in his heart that it was bad!
"Quick, withdraw your troops, you've been tricked, withdraw quickly!"
Liu Tang turned his horse around and shouted loudly to withdraw his troops, but there was a rumble of falling rocks on the mountain. The Yan army had already climbed up the cliff and was ready for the falling rocks to wait for the Shu army to take the bait.
When the Shu army retreated to the valley, they found 5,000 armored troops guarding the entrance of the valley.
"Helian Mochuan, you treacherous boy, I want to kill you, you must die a good death!"
Helian Mochuan watched condescendingly from above. The Shu army was trapped in the valley and was almost wiped out. The city defense situation was also very dangerous. Helian Feng led the soldiers in the city to defend the city to the death. As long as Helian Mochuan
If Chuan returned successfully, they would have won a great victory.
"Your Highness, the disparity in our military strength is too great. The Shu army is so numerous that we may not be able to withstand it!"
He Lianfeng was hit by an arrow on his shoulder. He swung his sword to cut off the arrow feathers and shouted loudly: "We must fight even if we can't stand it. If we give up, everyone in this city will die! Come here,
Kill me!"
Helianfeng rose up to resist, and the old, weak, women and children in the city also picked up their swords and went up to the city wall to defend themselves against the enemy. Helianmochuan also encountered vigorous resistance from the Shu army.
Liu Tang rushed up the cliff and started fighting with Helian Mochuan. After trying Helian Mochuan's hand, Liu Tang looked surprised.
"I didn't expect that the regent could reach out so well. It has been because of your disability for so many years. It seems that everyone in this world has been deceived by you!"
Helian Mochuan held a long sword and fought Liu Tang with two hundred moves without any flaws. However, Liu Tang had sweat on his forehead.
"But no matter how powerful it is, even without me, the Shu army can capture Yanmen Pass. In the end, I, Liu Tang, will win!"
Liu Tang still spoke confidently, but Helian Mochuan simply gave him a sword and stabbed him directly in the shoulder.
"Since the King of Tang is so confident, why not go out and take a look to see whether your Shu army captured the city, or whether our Yan army attacked from inside and outside, making your Shu army unable to come back!"
Liu Tang looked at him in surprise, thinking that Helian Mochuan must be telling lies, so he waved his sword a few times, then turned around, grabbed a horse and ran towards the mouth of the valley, just as Yan Jun ran in.
"Your Majesty, it's not good. The Yan Army's reinforcements have arrived. Everyone in the Shu Kingdom has been attacked from the front and back, and more than half of them have been killed or injured!"
Yan army, reinforcements?
"This is impossible. That boy Helianqi said that Emperor Yan did not send reinforcements at all. How is this possible!"
But when Liu Tang saw Xie Jiajun's banner, he knew that the situation was over.
"Withdraw your troops and return to the court!"
After finishing his words, Liu Tang turned around and glared at Helian Mochuan fiercely, and said: "Boy, just wait, sooner or later this King of Yan will step under my feet!"
After leaving a lot of harsh words, Liu Tang returned to the territory of Shu with his remaining defeated troops, almost fleeing. Of the previous 600,000 troops, only about 300,000 were left. Such a battle made the Shu country full of vitality.
hurt.
After Helian Mochuan returned to the city, he went to see the old general Xie, but the old general was now in Ning Wan's room. Seeing his granddaughter turned like this, he was heartbroken and burst into tears.
"Wan'er, my Wan'er! If I had known this, my grandfather should have taken you to the northwest. Even if life in the northwest is difficult, it would be better than suffering so much!"
Helian Mochuan frowned slightly when he heard Old General Xie's words as soon as he entered the door.
"Don't you think it's too late for the old general to say these things now? In order to clear up the relationship with Wan'er's mother, the old general went to the northwest border. Even when his own woman was persecuted to death, the old general didn't do anything.
Dare you say it. Now you come here to pretend to be a loving father, don’t you think it’s a bit late?”
