Suddenly there was a soft sound, and the closed door slowly opened.A soldier holding a torch suddenly appeared on the top of the city, which was extremely conspicuous in the dark night.
"Please enter the city quickly, my lord." The torch swung three times in the air, and then the heavy suspension bridge was slowly lowered.
The big stone in Yuan Tan's heart was finally let go, and he could finally take a good bath and sleep.
Thinking of this, when the city gate was only half opened, Yuan Tan took the lead and entered the dark city gate first, and Cen Bi and the accompanying hundreds of cavalry followed quickly.
"Huh?" Yuan Tan, who had just entered the city gate, realized that something was wrong. There seemed to be something extra on the ground in front of him, at least three or four feet high, and it seemed to be very long.Because the light is too dark, I can't see clearly.
Just when he was about to ask, a row of torches lit up all around, and then, countless arrows shot directly at them.
"Fast back."
With the light of the fire, Yuan Tan could see clearly that the ones on the ground were Jumas, and the rows of archers behind Jumas were constantly shooting arrows.Although Yuan Tan didn't know exactly what happened, but in desperation, it was more important to save his life first.
They are all cavalry.It is easy for the cavalry to attack and attack, but it is somewhat difficult to turn around and retreat, especially in this situation.Yuan Tan dialed the arrows with his saber, turned his horse's head and rushed out quickly, only to see that the suspension bridge was slowly being retracted. If they couldn't get out at this time, they would be trapped in the urn in the blink of an eye.
At the moment, he didn't care about that much, and he drove his horse towards the door with all his strength. Anyone who blocked him along the way, even if they were his personal guards, would be killed.
Fortunately, the gate of the city is not deep, and after Yuan Tan was hit by two arrows, the suspension bridge was within easy reach.Yuan Tan's mount is worthy of being a BMW, and it just carried Yuan Tan into the air and crossed the moat.
For the rest of their life after the catastrophe, a group of hundreds of riders, except Yuan Tan, were all trapped in the city, and their life and death were unknown.Losing his entourage again would make the situation worse, and Yuan Tan secretly vowed in his heart that he would take revenge.
Duchang can't go, it seems that they can only go to Zhu Xu and Zhao Rui to join them.
You can't stay here for a long time. In order to prevent the enemy troops from rushing out of the city, Yuan Tan quickly galloped away and disappeared into the night.
Above the city gate, looking at Yuan Tan who was gradually going away, the corners of Gao Gan's mouth rose slightly.
"My lord, why didn't you let me shoot him just now?"
"Stupid, if Yuan Tan is dead, it would be the best thing to get him fired and force him to leave. Order the brothers to pack up quickly, and we will return to Linzi now."
"Then... what about those people below?"
"Not a single one."
Chapter 382 Surrender without a fight
Yingling is only more than a hundred miles away from Zhuxu.
Cao Anmin stayed behind to appease the people, and recruited Yuan Tan's defeated army. With Li Ji as the commander, Cheng Yaojin, Wang Yanzhang, and Guan Sheng as generals, he raised [-] troops to attack Zhu Xu.
In Zhuxu City, just after Zhao Rui's funeral was arranged, Lu Weihuang heard that Cao Anmin's army was less than twenty miles away from the city before he had time to catch his breath.
If they retreated, it would be hopeless. After all, Lu Weihuang didn't think he could match the Xuanjia army's iron cavalry charge.
If he sticks to it, he has also heard from several of Zhao Rui's personal soldiers that in the battle outside Yingling City, Cao Jun's arrows and trebuchets were very powerful.
If the [-] recruits under him fight recklessly with the imposing Cao Jun, there will only be a dead end.
Fortunately, Li Ji did not rush to attack the city, but set up a camp ten miles outside the city.
Under the flames of war, Zhu Xu, both the common people and the soldiers, seemed panicked.
Inside the mansion, Lu Weihuang's wife Lin walked into the study holding a candle.
Unlike people like Simpi, Lu Weihuang is just an ordinary general, and his importance in Hebei is not as important as people like Cenbi.In addition, he has been guarding Qingzhou with Yuan Tan, so his family members also came with him.
I thought the Weishui line of defense was impenetrable, and even if it couldn't last for a year, it could last half a year in October.
Unexpectedly, everything changed overnight.
The line of defense they regarded as an impregnable wall has become a complete joke.
Right now, Cao's army is aggressively suppressing the border. Although Qingzhou only lost the two counties of Beihai and Donglai, they have no army, so why should they fight Cao's army to the death.
"Ah!" Just as the candle was lit, Mrs. Lin cried out in surprise.
In the darkness, Lu Weihuang sat quietly in front of the desk with his eyes closed, as if he was thinking about something.
"It's so dark, why don't you light a lamp, it's scary!"
Lu Weihuang slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Mrs. Lin, sighed secretly, and said, "It doesn't make any difference whether you light the lamp or not."
Mrs. Lin brought a food box over, opened the lid, and placed several delicious meals prepared inside in front of Lu Weihuang one by one.
"You don't come out for dinner. I asked the kitchen to prepare some delicious side dishes. You can taste them."
Lu Weihuang glanced at Mrs. Lin, grabbed his hand and said, "It's a blessing that you have been working so hard with me all these years."
Lin looked at Lu Weihuang with a strange look, but didn't make a sound.
"I think about it again and again, why don't you take the children back to Linzi first?"
Lin's hands froze in mid-air, looking at Lu Weihuang, he couldn't bear the question that had been hidden in his heart any longer, and asked: "On weekdays, I never ask you about military affairs. But you were not like you in the past. This look. As the commander, with such a lost soul and frowning face, how can he lead the soldiers to meet the enemy!"
Although there is no mirror in front of him, Lu Weihuang is sure that the self in the mirror must be a bad image.
"Cao Jun is too strong, with our strength, we will definitely lose."
Lin knelt beside Lu Weihuang, looked at her husband, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief and said softly: "Although I don't read much, I know a truth."
"Why?"
"A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to serve. Yuan Tan is not a master. What he did in Xuzhou is simply the wrath of the gods. Why should my husband be loyal to such a despicable and shameless villain. Cao Gongjiu In the town of Xuzhou, the people return to their hearts, and the soldiers use their lives. Wherever they go, the battle must be conquered, and the attack must be captured. Such a person, a husband under his command, can be of great use. At this time, why not abandon the dark and vote for the light, and vote for the new master. In this way, go up I am worthy of the emperor, and I am worthy of my parents' upbringing."
Lu Weihuang glanced at his wife, his eyes were full of surprise.
The two had been married for several years, and it was the first time he knew that his wife had such insight.
"I see." After Lu Weihuang finished speaking, his stomach suddenly growled.
"Things are settled, it's time to eat."
Lu Weihuang laughed loudly and had a hearty meal.
In the early morning of the second day, when Li Ji led the army to prepare to launch an attack, Lu Weihuang directly led the school lieutenant around him to leave the city to surrender.
So far, all the [-] Yuan troops in Zhuxu City surrendered to Cao Anmin.Li Ji left Cheng Yaojin to guard the city pass, and led [-] soldiers and horses, and marched westward quickly.
In Beiping City, Yuan Xi looked at the information in his hand and slapped the table heavily.
Such a move attracted the attention of Fang Xuanling, the chief counselor next to him.
"What made you so angry?"
Yuan Xi handed over the information, and said with an angry look on his face: "My big brother is really stupid. How long did it take for an army of one hundred thousand to be defeated by Cao Anmin? Not to mention that half of Qingzhou was lost. Here comes someone whose whereabouts are unknown. It's really embarrassing our Yuan family."
