"It's Li Ke!"
"Tell me, didn't uncle go after Li Ke?”
"Why would Li Ke appear outside the city?”
……
Helian Hua looked at the army that surrounded Qin Huaiyu outside the city. They were attacked suddenly and retreated to the foot of the mountain to barely block it. However, they were attacked by Qin Huaiyu's troops that rushed down from the mountain. It was immediately worse than the situation. They were on the verge of being defeated. Helian Hua shouted with a pale face.
No one could answer his question.
"Young General, do you want to go out of the city and take the opportunity to recapture the military fortress?”
"No! The torches of the enemy's fortress are flickering. They are clearly prepared. Moreover, we have 2,000 people. What can we do if we divide our forces to take down the fortress?”
……
During the debate, Helian Hua watched as the three thousand elite troops of Helian tribe were defeated by the sudden attack.
In the end, it formed a defeated momentum and rolled back towards Tumen Pass.
The soldiers on their side were in a sorry state. They had lost their weapons and wished they had more legs.
"Young General, open the city gates and receive our brothers!”
"Young General…"
"No!"
"If we open the city gate now, the Tang army will rush in!”
……
Helian Hua's face was pale, and his eyes were dark and determined as he watched his clansmen approach. He slowly raised his hand and said,"Pass on the order! Shooting arrows! These people were all cowards! The scum of the Helian Tribe did not deserve to live!”
The guards hesitated, but under the urging of the generals, they began to shoot arrows at their comrades.
"Your Highness, the enemy is charging back again. Are we not killing the captives?”Xue Rengui asked.
Li Ke shook his head." Chase them into the moat. We don't have the time or manpower to fill the moat outside the city."”
Xue Rengui's lips trembled.
He didn't expect that this person was born in the palace and grew up in the hands of a woman.
The Prince, who had a reputation of being a playboy in Chang 'an, actually had such a bloody side to him.
"This general will obey!"
Xue Rengui did not object. Li Ke's conditions for not accepting the surrender were sufficient.
They could not afford to delay.
They did not need to fill the moat with the corpses of their captives, but they had to use the lives of their brothers and comrades!
In the end, most of the 2,000 Tuyuhun elites fell in the moat.
It created a path for the army to get close to the city wall.
Li Ke looked at the panicked city wall and ordered,""Treat the wounded, divide the troops to cut down trees to build siege ladders.”
"Cheng Chumo's first team!"
"Qin Huaiyu, second team!"
"Xue Rengui, team three!"
"Niulu's fourth team, hurry up and rest.”
"I want to enter Earth Gate Pass at dawn!”
……
"Here!"
The brothers agreed excitedly. Then, their armor clanged against each other, and they left quickly, each in charge of a piece.
Wei Shuyu stood beside Li Ke and secretly gave him a thumbs up."Big brother, after this battle, big brother will be famous in the world!”
"It's us brothers who are famous in the world!"
"Yes, it's us brothers who are famous in the world!”
……
Who would have thought that the two of them would be able to conquer Tumen Pass, which was defended by 15,000 soldiers, with just 10,000 soldiers?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as the two of them were talking, three red fireworks shot out from the top of the city wall.
"Not good, Big Brother, this must be the communication signal between Tumen Pass and Helian Tienan!”Wei Shuyu said in shock.
"Don't worry," Li Ke nodded and said calmly,"Unless Helian Tienan can rush back before tomorrow morning!"”
Four hours of intense and orderly preparation passed.
At dawn.
The four thousand-man teams were ready to go.
Li Ke stood a hundred steps away and shouted at Tumen Pass,"The guards in the city, listen up. Surrender. Helian Tienan won't be able to make it back before the pass is broken.”
The city wall was silent.
Fifteen minutes later, Li Ke gave up on his fantasy and said in a low voice,""Let's begin!"
Sob…
A dull horn sounded.
"Kill them!"
The four lieutenants gave the order at the same time. They held weapons in one hand and shields in the other as they ran at the front.
Li Ke looked at Niu Lu, Qin Huaiyu, and Cheng Chumo's figures, and his hands couldn't help but clench.
There is a difference between close and distant.
They were also his subordinates, but the safety of his three brothers worried him even more.
"Shoot!"
As the first wave of arrows rained down, Li Ke saw many of his four thousand man teams fall.
The three brothers at the front could not help but heave a sigh of relief after they survived the rain of arrows.
However, the second wave of arrows followed.
His heart was beating up and down countless times.
The four thousand-man teams finally reached the city gates.
More than fifty scaling ladders made muffled thuds as they leaned against the city wall.
Cheng Chumo and the other three took the lead, each taking a ladder and starting to charge into the city.
"Niu Lu, be careful!"
Cheng Chu Bi shouted nervously as a basin of hot golden liquid poured down.
Niu Lu jumped off the two-meter-tall ladder and rolled to the ground.
As everyone searched, he staggered up and followed the soldiers up the city again.
Whoosh!
All the brothers let out a sigh of relief.
"Big brother, Xue Rengui has gone up!”
Li Ke looked over and saw Xue Rengui climbing up the city wall, brandishing the spear in his hand. None of the surrounding enemies could resist him.
Gradually, more than ten soldiers gathered behind Xue Rengui.
After they stabilized themselves at the city entrance, reinforcements from their side continued to climb up the city wall.
"Good!"
A city attack and defense battle with cold weapons.
Li Ke had finally opened his eyes today!
Previously, he had led his troops to fight in the wild.
He felt that the degree of excitement and danger was completely incomparable to the City Wars!
"Big brother, my brother is going up too!"
"Huaiyu, Huaiyu has also gone up!"
"Niu Lu also went up!"
……
Good news came from time to time.
In fact, the morale of the defenders in the city had been shaken. With twice the enemy's strength and Dadun Mountain Stronghold's commanding position, they had restrained a portion of the enemy from the north.
The number of people in the city that could be used to stop the enemy was less than 2,000.
As more and more boarding points appeared, the defenders scattered.
When the city gates opened.
Li Ke laughed heartily.
Clang!
He pulled out his sword and pointed it at the city gate."Enter the city! Kill!"
Dawn.
Li Ke ascended the city wall.
The soldiers cleaned up the city walls.
"How long has it been since Chumo chased Helian Tienan away?" Li Ke asked.”
"Two hours." Qin Huaiyu replied," According to their speed, they should be able to catch up. Will anything happen? Do you want me to personally lead the troops to receive them?"”
"Wait a little longer. Logically speaking, nothing will happen.”
He then ordered,"Send out scouts and messenger pigeons to pass on the news to Dafeichuan and Longyou Provincial Governor's Office."”
"I request that the Longyou Provincial Governor's Office send troops. Even if they can't send troops, I hope to get food supplies.”
"Big brother, are you worried that Dafei River won't send reinforcements to us?”Qin Huaiyu asked suspiciously.
Li Ke nodded." Our battle record is too dazzling. I don't know how many people want to see us fail. Even if Dafei Chuan is defeated, our battle record will still suppress the Crown Prince. This is not a good thing.”
Qin Huaiyu understood.
If the Crown Prince was jealous…
If they did not send reinforcements, Jishi Mountain and the others would be in a very dangerous situation.
He did not know if the Tibetans would take the opportunity to attack.
After a few battles, they had 10,000 men, including the 1,000 men guarding the pontoon bridge and the 500 men Zhangsun Chong had brought with him.
Now, there were only 4,000 people left who could fight!
The losses were also very heavy.
Once Helian Tienan went all out, Helian Tienan alone would be enough for them to deal with.
" Big brother, big brother…" At this moment, a shout came from below the city. Cheng Chumo walked up quickly with an excited face and shouted,""Helian Tienan and all the nobles of the Helian Clan have been captured and brought back to the city!”
"Good! With these people, they would be even more confident in subduing Helian Tienan!”"Pass down the order, don't abuse Helian Tienan's family and those nobles!" Li Ke said excitedly.”
Helian Tienan was rushing back to help.
The news had already spread to Longyou, Dafeichuan, and Tubo.
