After a huge crater exploded in front of Fuxing Pass, the battle ended. Brother Yelvxiu ordered the messengers to blow the retreat horn. The 80,000 Liao troops were responsible for the siege and the 50,000 Liao troops were responsible for the sneak attack.
, in the end, only less than 40,000 people survived. The soldiers at Fuxing Pass won the battle, but there was no smile on their faces. They looked at the huge pit under the city that swallowed more than 60,000 enemy troops, and they did not want to come back to their senses for a long time.
The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield quietly, as if they had been cast a silencing curse. Yang Gui and Yang Xin, after the Liao army retreated, left some soldiers and horses to garrison. They took the remaining soldiers and horses and boarded the
The top of the city. When they climbed to the top of the city, they gasped when they saw the huge pothole outside the city.
The explosion outside the city last night was so loud, they both heard it and felt it, but they didn't expect the result to be so shocking. When Yang Gui and Yang Xin entered the city gate building, they saw Yang Qi inside
Closing his eyes to rest his mind, Yang Dezheng looked at Yang Qi and sighed.
"Did an earth dragon turn over last night?" Yang Gui asked quickly. Yang Dezheng pointed at Yang Qi and shook his head silently. Yang Gui looked at Yang Qi, but Yang Qi didn't explain anything. Yang Gui is also a smart person. Through Yang Dezheng
From Yang Qi's expression, he had already judged that what happened last night was probably related to Yang Qi. It was indeed a bit shocking that Yang Qi could make such a big noise as the earth dragon turned over.
Yang Gui wanted to ask, but was stopped by Yang Xin, "Since the eighth aunt is unwilling to talk, you and I should stop asking." Yang Xin pursed his lips, but did not speak. Yang Gui remained calm.
He said: "There was such a big noise last night, and we set fire to the mountains on both sides. The Liao army suffered heavy losses, so it must be time to retreat."
The Liao army suffered heavy losses. There is no need to count them. You can tell by looking at the charred corpses surrounding the huge pothole outside the city.
"Hey..." Yang Dezheng, who was in a bad mood, sighed, threw off his sleeves, and said with a grimace: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Since Brother Yelu Xiu became the Marshal of the Liao Kingdom, he has never been subjected to such a thing.
Such a big blow. He will definitely choose to fight with us at any cost. Besides, most of the troops he brought this time were from his own tribe. He lost nearly half of them in one go. It will be hard for him to explain to other tribes when he returns to the Liao Kingdom."
Yang Gui frowned and said: "Yang Dezheng, what means do you think the Liao army will use to continue to attack Fuxingguan?" Yang Dezheng shook his head and whispered: "It's hard to say, and it's hard to guess. Now that things have happened, what means does Brother Yelvxiu use?
, it is no longer possible to judge by common sense." Yang Qi sat up straight from the soft chair and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. From the moment I arrived at Fuxing Pass, I never thought about letting the Liao people
One step beyond here."
Yang Dezheng glanced at Yang Qi with a complicated expression, and sighed sadly: "I'm just afraid that Brother Yeluxiu will use some means that we can't guess." Yang Qi solemnly said: "Then wait and see what he has in store.
Means." No one can guess what means Brother Yelvxiu will use.
Yang Dezheng did not intend to continue guessing. After repelling the Liao army, Yang Dezheng ordered Yang Gui and Yang Xin to reorganize Fuxing Pass. No matter what methods Brother Yelvxiu had, he would be ready. After waiting for three days, the Liao army outside the city
The army was quiet, with no movement at all.
The soldiers at Fuxingguan could only look at the Liao army camp outside the city from a distance without moving a step back. This shows that the Liao people would not give up.
On the fourth day, instead of waiting for the Liao people, they did wait for Peng Pai. The shock caused by the explosion collapsed the tunnel leading outside the city. Peng Pai and his six secret guards were killed on the spot.
Of the three, two were smashed to death.
In the end, only Peng Pai crawled out of the tunnel. Peng Pai was seriously injured, with multiple bruises all over his body, and the nails on both hands were broken. He looked like he had crawled out of hell.
The first time he saw Yang Qi, Peng Pai said only one sentence, "Eighth sister, that tunnel can no longer be used. There are many landslides inside, and the inside of the tunnel is filled with gravel." Yang Dezheng looked at Peng Pai.
His whole body was in a miserable state, his hands trembled slightly, and he whispered: "I won't use it anymore, just block it. You can go down and recuperate first."
After Peng Pai left, Yang Dezheng felt very complicated. He found that he could not be a hard-hearted person after all. Peng Pai was also a loyal person. When he was injured, Yang Qi Dezheng actually felt a sense of guilt. Peng Pai was in
He didn't say what happened in the tunnel.
But Yang Dezheng can feel that Peng Pai must have experienced many things that ordinary people can't imagine if he was able to come out of a collapsed tunnel alive. "You are different from before. Now you are cold-blooded and ruthless to the enemy, but cruel to your own people."
Full of compassion." Yang Dezheng didn't know when he came to Yang Qi's side and said softly.
Yang Qi grinned and asked: "Tell me, what kind of person was I before?" Yang Dezheng hesitated for a moment and said calmly: "You were just a girl before, and you didn't have such a serious murder.
Heart. I can feel that no matter how many Liao people you kill, your heart will not soften."
Yang Qi smiled and said: "I will never be soft-hearted when dealing with enemies." Yang Dezheng advised: "Listen to my nephew, use what you left last night sparingly and don't spread it out. Otherwise, many people will suffer.
.Once controlled by the enemy, the great passes and cities of the Song Dynasty will no longer be able to withstand the iron hoof of the Liao people.
At that time, the people all over the world will suffer." Yang Qi looked at the Liao camp outside the pass and said sarcastically: "The mighty pass will never become the most solid barrier to protect the people. The only people who can protect the people are the people themselves.
What I do is to lead the people out of the city wall, let them know the real world, and teach them what is truly indestructible strength." After leaving these words, Yang Qi never looked back.
He returned to the city gate building, leaving a stunned Yang Dezheng blowing the cool breeze on the city wall.
Two days later, an arrow was shot from outside the city and was nailed to the pillar of the city gate tower. The soldiers guarding the gate saw a letter tied to the arrow. They did not dare to open it and read it, so they quickly delivered it.
It arrived in the hands of Yang Dezheng. Yang Dezheng opened the letter, but it was the handwriting of Brother Yelvxiu.
There was only one sentence written on it. "I have prepared a million people to kill for you. I hope you will not hold back." Yang Dezheng took the letter and was a little confused. "Brother Yeluxiu, what does this mean?" The letter was delivered.
When Yang Qi held it in his hand, Yang Qi was also a little dazed.
He also couldn't understand. Yang Qi muttered: "I can't guess what Brother Yelvxiu means, but I have a bad feeling." Yang Qi and Yang Dezheng speculated all night, but they couldn't figure out what Yelvxiu meant.
The meaning of this letter is to wait until the sun rises in the east the next day.
They understood what Brother Yeluxiu meant. Looking down from the top of the city, they saw a dark mass of ragged people being driven by the Liao army towards Fuxingguan. Yang Qi said tremblingly: "I understand, Brother Yelusiu."
I understand." Yang Dezheng said solemnly: "I understand too."
Yang Dezheng was shocked and said: "Brother Yelvxiu has prepared one million Han people from Liao to kill for you. It depends on whether you dare to kill them or not." They are from the same family, but Yang Qi can really do it? Among these Han people from Liao,
, there must have been a lot of Liao army spies mixed in. In addition, a large number of Liao army troops were following behind this Liao Han people.
As long as Yang Dezheng cannot withstand the pressure and lets these people enter the city, these Han people in Liao will rush forward and break open the gate of Fuxing Pass. And the Liao army following them will take the opportunity to enter the city and break through Fuxing.
Guan. If they were all killed, how dare Yang Dezheng talk about regaining the six states of Yanyun in the future?
As long as Yang Dezheng dares to kill, he will be remembered as the most evil executioner and butcher in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and even in Song and Liao. Yang Dezheng is suddenly in a dilemma and can only let the Liao army drive the Liao army away.
The local Han people came to the city.
When the Han people in Liao arrived at the city, they began to wail, roar, curse, and ask for help. In an instant, the entire Fuxing Pass was filled with endless wailing. Most of the soldiers at Fuxing Pass were young men recruited from Shengzhou, and they had also experienced
The fear of being ruled by the Liao people could not help but sympathize with the people under the city. Some people could not bear to see the miserable plight of the people under the city, and immediately ignored the advice of others and wanted to throw down the rope to save people. However, when he threw down the rope, he was
The Liao army spies hiding among the Han people in Liao were caught.
More than a dozen Liao army spies grabbed the rope and directly dragged down the soldier who was preparing to save people on the top of the city. This soldier not only killed himself, but also killed his brother who accompanied him to save people. In a short time
Within a quarter of an hour, dozens of soldiers who wanted to save people were killed by spies under the city who had mingled among the Han people in Liao.
Yang Qi immediately ordered the soldiers on the city top not to pay attention to the Liao Han people below the city. In order to prevent fools from appearing again, Yang Dezheng, Yang Gui, Yang Xin and others patrolled the city head day and night.
Three days. Three days.
The soldiers and horses on the top of the city seemed to have gone through a cycle of reincarnation. The Han people in the Liao area outside the city knew that there was no hope of survival, and various tragedies began to happen one after another. Some people could not bear the fear of approaching death, so they violently injured others.
Someone was hit directly and died under the city.
There are more tragedies happening one after another. All kinds of horrifying tragedies are happening all the time. The Liao army, which is five miles away behind them, seems to have not seen it. They are just defending according to law and will not let them go.
These people were one step away from Fuxing Pass. The Fuxing infantry on top of the city and the soldiers of the Jin army felt like they were walking through an endless hell for the past three days.
On the morning of the fourth day, as soon as Yang Dezheng stepped out of the city gate building, he saw a group of revival infantry soldiers led by Wang Xing kneeling in front of the city gate building. Wang Xing burst into tears and cried: "General.
, you should find a way to save them! It's too miserable! It's really too miserable!" The Fuxing infantry kneeling behind Wang Xing were also trembling and crying.
Yang Dezheng glared at Wang Xing with a cold face and growled: "Wang Xing, although I don't know your past, I can guess something from your actions. Do you know what you mean by what you said?"
Wang Xing choked with tears and said: "I know that saving them may cause great harm to Fuxing Pass, but if I don't save them, my conscience will not go away. They are really pitiful and miserable."
Yang Dezheng said coldly: "If they can be saved, why did I let them die? Since I am unwilling to save them, it means that they cannot be saved. Once the Fuxing Pass is lost, they will not be the ones who die."
People. But Fengzhou, Shengzhou, more than a million people. Which is more important, you Wang Xing should know." Yang Dezheng dropped these words and strode to the city wall to inspect.
Wang Xing wailed loudly. "General, they are starting to eat people! They are eating people!" Yang Dezheng trembled all over and subconsciously paused at his feet. However, after a short pause, Yang Dezheng seemed not to hear it.
As Wang Xing said, he continued to inspect the city wall. While inspecting the city wall, Yang Dezheng just glanced down the city and quickly looked away.
Wang Xing is right. People are eating people down there. And they are eating openly and openly. Some of them have been driven crazy, and they don't care at all that there are hundreds of thousands of people watching them eating people. The soldiers on the top of the city
Some of them were choking, some were vomiting, and some were pale and trembling all over. Yang Dezheng patrolled the top of the city, and when he returned to the front and back of the city gate, he saw Wang Xing and the group of people still kneeling there.
Yang Dezheng approached Yang Qi thoughtfully and whispered: "Ba Gu, the situation is not good. The morale of the soldiers is very low, and some are even plotting secretly to open the city gate at night to save people.
"
Yang Qi frowned and said, "Let me, Yang Xin, lead people to guard the city gate later. We must not allow anyone to open the city gate."
"Hey!" Yang Dezheng agreed and went down to inform Yang Xin to guard the gate. Yang Dezheng stood in the most conspicuous place of the city gate building and shouted loudly: "I know you have conscience, and I also know you are kind-hearted. You guys
I want to save the people under the city.
I'm telling you now, I want to, but we can't save them. Why? Because there are spies from the Liao people inside, and behind them, there are a large number of Liao troops following. Once they are rescued, the Liao people will
You will drive straight into Fuxing Pass.
When the time comes, it will not be them who eat people, but you. There are still relatives, tribesmen, and children behind you who are protected by you. If you can bear to watch your relatives, tribesmen, and children behind you eating each other.
Then go and save people.
If you can't, throw away those stupid thoughts in your mind. Cheer up for me and watch with wide eyes. I will keep this blood feud of the people outside the city in my heart. This account will be calculated in my heart.
On the heads of the Liao people. One day, I will lead you to conquer the Liao Kingdom and recover this blood debt."
"Poof! Ah~" Many people on the city heard Yang Dezheng's words. They did not want to let their relatives suffer, and they felt sorry for the people below the city, so they immediately roared and cried loudly.
"Woooooo~" The soldiers on the top of the city burst into tears all of a sudden, and their wails could be heard several miles away. They were using their cries to vent their depression, powerlessness, fear and
sad.
Outside Fuxing Pass. Inside the main tent of the Liao Army's Central Army, Brother Yelvxiu also heard the cries coming from Fuxing Pass. But his heart was as hard as stone. "Killing kills the heart... Yang Dezheng, you kill me."
If you are a person, this king will kill your heart."
Brother Yelvxiu sneered and ordered Xiao She, who was half healed from his injuries and was obeying orders in the tent, "Prepare another 100,000 people. When the people in front of Fuxing Pass are almost dead, put them in."
Brother Yelvxiu is also ruthless. He is a man who sticks to his word. He has successively recruited nearly one million Han people from the Liao region from the eight states of Yanyun. His crazy actions can be said to be
Unprecedented. After Xiao She received the order from Brother Yelvxiu, he immediately went to prepare the Han people in Liao. To be honest, he actually disagreed with Brother Yelvxiu doing this. Now, on the southwest coast of Liao Kingdom
In places where there are merchant ships from the South, they specialize in collecting Han people from the Liao region.
This kind of transaction has existed for more than a year. The prices of Han people in Liao are also gradually rising. Xiao She feels that selling these Han people in Liao to businessmen in Tianjing New City will definitely make a lot of wealth. However,
, he was just thinking about it in his mind. Brother Yelvxiu was the King of the Southern Court of the Liao Kingdom and a member of the royal family of the Liao Kingdom. His orders were sometimes more effective than the emperor's orders in the Liao Kingdom...
Ten days have passed under the Fuxing Pass. There are still more than 10,000 people alive out of the 100,000 Han people in Liao. How these people survived is clear to the soldiers on the top of the city. Yang Dezheng stood on the top of the city and stared at
Looking at the pair of green eyes under the city head, he said solemnly: "Archers, prepare, kill them for me." Killing these people, the soldiers on the city head did not have any psychological burden.
Because in their eyes, these people under the city are no longer human. Under the cover of the majestic rain of arrows, those people under the city were killed one by one. It only took two sticks of incense to kill those under the city.
Everyone was killed. The Liao people didn't seem to see it. After seeing that these people were dead, they left the battlefield quietly.
Three hours later, another hundred thousand people were driven to Fuxing Pass. After seeing the tragic situation at Fuxing Pass, these people were frightened and wanted to escape one by one. However, they were stopped by the Liao army.
They were driven back. The people looked very panicked. They were afraid of the Liao army behind them, and they were also afraid of the soldiers on the city top.
However, they were obviously different from the previous group of people. The leader was an old man. He led the tribesmen behind him and walked to the side of the people who were massacred by the soldiers on the city with a pale face. The old man inspected them carefully.
He looked at the dead people, and then said loudly to other tribesmen: "Don't be afraid, everyone, the people on top of the city are our Han army, they will never kill innocent people indiscriminately.
These dead people are all people who deserve to die." Someone asked in horror: "Elder, how can you be sure that they are people who deserve to die?" The old man's face darkened and he whispered: "Because they cannibalize people." The old man
After leaving these words and not caring about other people's reactions, he took a step forward, walked to the foot of the city wall, raised his hands and shouted: "Which general is guarding the city, do you dare to come out and see him?"
Yang Dezheng has been paying attention to this group of Han people in Liao from the beginning to the end. He can feel the difference in this group of Han people in Liao. After hearing the old man's shouting, Yang Dezheng took a step forward and said loudly: "I am
Yang Dezheng, the guard general of the Fuxing Gate." The old man was obviously stunned when he heard Yang Dezheng's name, and then he raised his hands and said: "But the man who visited the country in the fifth year of Taiping and Xingguo, Yang Dezheng?"
Yang Dezheng nodded and said: "Exactly." The old man held up his hand again and said: "I have met Tanhua Lang. I have a question. Can Tanhua Lang help me solve it?"
"Tell me!" the old man asked in a deep voice: "How did these people outside the city die?" Yang Dezheng said in a slightly lower voice: "The Liao thieves drove them and wanted to break through the Fuxing Pass, but I refused to open it. This
Eighty percent of the people in the city died of starvation, and 10% were eaten. The remaining 10%...were killed on the order of this general."
The old man solemnly said: "The general killed those man-eating demons?" Yang Dezheng nodded and said: "That's right." The old man cupped his hands, smiled miserably, and said: "I understand, little old man. The Liao thieves want to break through.
He came up with such a heart-wrenching plan to force the general to switch the switch. The general cared about the people behind him and refused to switch the switch.
Come to think of it, the previous group of people was the first group, and our group of people was the second group. There may be a third group, and a fourth group in the future... The general's responsibility lies, and I don't dare to judge. I don't dare to judge.
I just want to ask the general, who do we all look like in the general’s eyes?”
Yang Dezheng solemnly said: "They are all sons of my Han family."
"Okay! What a Han man." The old man laughed loudly, "If you can be called a Han man in your lifetime, I will die in peace." The old man bowed to Yang Dezheng and said: "One day we will regain Yan.
After Yunbazhou, the general was also asked to carve the words "Han man" on the little old man's tombstone."
Yang Dezheng returned the courtesy and said: "I will not disgrace my father-in-law's trust." The old man said loudly: "My name is Liu Hong, and he is the descendant of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty. In the past, I lived under the knees of Liao thieves, and now I am trapped in death. Naturally, I cannot disgrace him."
He took the name of a Han family man.
The little old man has a son named Liu Kaipin, who returned to the Central Plains with the Song Dynasty caravan in the past. The general has a chance to meet him someday, and I would like to ask the general to inform him. I, the son of the Liu family, was born as a Han spirit and died as a Han ghost."
The old man Liu Hong cupped his hands again, turned around, and shouted to his people: "Do it!"
Almost at the same time, the clansmen of the old man Liu Hong suddenly rose up and captured the Liao soldiers hiding among their clansmen.
During the life-and-death fight, the old man Liu Hong's tribe killed and injured more than a dozen people before they eliminated the six Liao soldiers lurking among them. In an instant, the old man Liu Hong's tribe gathered together.
The Liao soldiers who were lurking among other people were blocked from the encirclement. The old man Liu Hong was surrounded by others and shouted loudly: "My sons, now we are trapped in a deadly situation. We will die no matter what. We cannot be cowards.
Nor can I be that man-eating beast.
If you fight against Liao thieves, even if you die and go underground, you will still be worthy of your ancestors." The Han people in Liao were obviously moved. Yang Dezheng immediately ordered people to prepare a large bundle of swords and threw them down the city. The old man Liu Honghe
His people are determined to die, and he can naturally see that.
The only thing Yang Dezheng could do was to give them swords and let them pull one or two backs before they died, and they would not die unjustly. The soldiers on the top of the city had already burst into tears. The old man Yang Hong picked a horizontal sword and waved it
After a moment, he looked at the soldiers on the top of the city with a grin and said with a smile: "Babys, don't cry. We, the men of the Han family, will save some and not shed tears. Guard Guancheng well. When we set foot on the capital in the future, remember to take the Liao
The emperor's hat came to hold wine to pay homage to the little old man.
At that time, even if the little old man is lying on the ground, he will wake up with laughter." After saying this, the old man Liu Hong picked up the horizontal sword and led his people and the Han people in Liao who were willing to follow him to fight bravely.
They rushed towards the Liao army. There were only a few thousand of them in total.
More people looked on like zombies. Thousands of people, facing the tyrannical Liao army, were basically throwing eggs at stones. Hitting stones with eggs always seemed cruel and tragic. The old man Liu Hong led these thousands of people, facing the Liao army.
Nearly 60,000 elite soldiers charged. There was no way anyone could survive.
Only part of the 60,000 Liao army was dispatched, and together they strangled thousands of people led by the old man Yang Hong. The whole battle lasted for a stick of incense, and after one stick of incense, corpses were left on the ground. It seemed that the old man Liu
The men led by Hong angered the Liao army.
The Liao army directly pushed forward one mile, leaving only four miles away from Fuxing Pass. The remaining more than 90,000 Liao Han people were compressed to survive within four miles. The 90,000 Liao people outside the city
The Han people were just like the previous batch of Han people in Liao. Ten days later, nearly 20,000 people survived.
There was no other reason. There were enough corpses for them to eat. The soldiers at Fuxingguan walked around the hell again. When Yang Dezheng gave the order to kill, the soldiers followed the order like zombies.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
