Yin Li saw the dust rising, his eyes sharpened, "Your Majesty, General Ashina has led the enemy army out."
The emperor immediately took a step forward, looked at the dusty place, clenched his fists and said, "Wait a little longer."
The emperor asked Ashina to bring 1,000 cavalry to lure the enemy, but he also arranged two other cavalry to ambush. On the one hand, Zhao Guogong led 15,000 soldiers and horses to ambush in Xiling, and on the other hand, Niu Shishi led 11,000 cavalry. Soldiers and horses lay in ambush in the north of the mountain.
Ashina led a thousand cavalry to lead the enemy into the canyon. When the Niu Shishi who was ambushing on the north side of the mountain saw them entering the urn, he immediately rushed out with his men. up.
Immediately sound the war drum, let people wave the flag, and let Zhao Guogong rush in with his soldiers and horses, and surround the enemy.
Yanshou heard the sound of the drum, and when he looked up, he saw the Emperor of Jin standing on the top of the mountain. He was so excited that he immediately ordered people to form an array to meet the enemy. He pointed his long sword at him and said, "Your lords, that is the Emperor of Jin. Any warrior who can take him down will be rewarded with a thousand households!"
The army clamored, and immediately someone rushed towards Beishan.
Ashina turned around to kill, and the soldiers and horses rushed in by Niu Shishi stopped most of them in an instant.
Some others rushed out, Yin Li saw, leaving a thousand people to guard the emperor, and he rushed down with three thousand soldiers and horses.
Bai Shan glanced at the emperor and followed closely behind.
Standing on the top of the mountain, the emperor could clearly see the battle situation below, and directly commanded with semaphore. Generals such as Zhao Guogong and Niu Cishi changed their formation according to the semaphore, constantly strangling the enemy troops entering the valley, and constantly introducing more enemy troops. .
Yin Li rushed down the mountain with 3,000 cavalry, ran into the enemy army head-on, and chopped the first cavalry in half with a single blow.
Bai Shan, who fell behind him, looked away with some discomfort, drew out his sword and rushed into the army. He used a sword, which was much gentler than Yin Li. He only wiped his neck and stabbed his confidants, and he was definitely not like Yin Li. Such a knife cuts off a person in half.
Daji was regarded as Bai Shan's personal soldier, following closely behind him all the time, protecting him and rushing forward while beating people.
Three thousand people quickly killed all the enemy troops who rushed out of the formation.
Yin Li raised his hand to withdraw the troops, and all the soldiers and horses lined up behind him in an orderly manner, looking at the battlefield in the canyon with a vicious look.
They won't join in, their task is to protect the emperor and prevent any soldiers from going up the mountain.
The Goguryeo soldiers kept trying to rush over, but most of them couldn't, and some of them rushed over, and then they were cut off by the three thousand forbidden soldiers.
After fighting for a long time, Yanshou found that they were constantly losing people and were completely surrounded and killed by the Jin army. His face changed drastically, he was startled and frightened, and could only retreat, but there were also Jin troops on the way back.
"The general—"
Yanshou gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat to the mountain, defend along the mountain, hurry—"
But there were too many of them, and when they finally occupied a mountain next to them, they lost more than 20,000 people.
Yanshou was distressed, but there was something even more distressing. Zhao Guogong rushed out with people, directly killing the people they were going to build checkpoints along the way, and cutting off their retreat.
In this way, although they occupied a mountain and temporarily defended it, they were also surrounded and could not retreat or advance.
Yanshou and the emperor on Beishan looked at each other from a distance, turned around after a while and went back to the camp tent that had just been set up, angrily punched the table.
The Mohe general Huihe who was with him widened his eyes and said, "We must kill them, we don't have much food."
Yanshou vomited to death, "Of course I know, but how do I kill him now?"
He blamed Huihe for not knowing how to advance or retreat. If he hadn't chased Ashina persistently, the 60,000 of them would not have fallen into the trap.
A total of 60,000, although they claim to have 150,000 reinforcements, but in fact there are not so many, only 120,000 can actually fight, so there are only 60,000 left in the camp, and I don't know if they will come rescue.
Rescue is impossible, because they were blocked by the 20,000 soldiers of Dajin.
The emperor watched from a distance, very happy, the result of the battle was greater than he imagined, and the battle went smoothly than he thought.
I didn't expect Yanshou to be so cowardly, and he didn't fight to go out, but to rely on the mountains to consolidate himself, without food and logistics, isn't that looking for death
Trying to rush out, although it is desperate, there may be heavy casualties, but their number is far greater than that of Da Jin, and there is still a high chance of rushing out.
Bai Shan and Yin Li returned to the emperor's side, took a look, and asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, do you want to persuade him to surrender?"
The emperor glanced at Bai Shan approvingly, "How do you know that I want to persuade you to surrender?"
Bai Shan: "It's cold, and it will consume us a lot if we continue to consume it. They don't even have the courage to rush out, so it should be easy to persuade them to surrender."
The emperor nodded slightly, "It's not urgent. I just saw a young general in white robes below who is very brave. What's his name?"
Yin Li also noticed it, and was about to send someone to ask, Bai Shan said: "My name is Xue Gui, from the Xue family of Hedong, he is the descendant of the King of Hedong in the Northern Dynasty."
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "After the famous general, let him take a short rest and take a thousand soldiers and horses to kill their remaining vigor."
"Yes." After Bai Shan's response, someone will naturally deliver the decree, but he needs to write the warrant and imperial decree. Well, this is the role of Zhongshu Sheng on the battlefield.
Therefore, the Goguryeo army has no peace even at night, Xue Gui, Ashina, Niu Cishi and others take turns to fight, you go up and kill for half an hour, and after a while I will kill for half an hour...
When the number of casualties was counted the next morning, Yanshou was almost in tears.
When the soldiers came up to report that they didn't have much dry food with them, whether they were going to break out of the siege, or what, Yanshou's tears fell.
Just when he was a little hesitant, when he wanted to organize soldiers and horses to rush out, there was a loud shout outside, not only the soldiers below, but also Yanshou couldn't help but tremble when he heard these sounds that seemed to explode in his ears .
Huihe said with a pale face: "Our retreat has been cut off, how do we retreat?"
Yanshou didn't speak.
Several lieutenants standing silently in the tent couldn't help but look at each other, and someone suggested in a low voice: "General, otherwise, let's surrender."
Everyone looked at Yanshou with piercing eyes.
Even Huihe said in a low voice: "Otherwise, let's surrender. The emperor of the Jin Dynasty didn't kill the surrendered army. Look at Ashina, isn't he a surrendered general?"
Prolonging life is like being roasted on the fire, and you can't make up your mind.
Outside, the emperor and Zhao Guogong said: "Let the children scream louder, and cook broth for them for lunch."
As the decree was passed down, everyone shouted louder, shouting and drinking around the longevity army, the sound collided back and forth in the canyon, and the constant echo made the sound louder.
The hands of the Koguryo soldiers defending with swords and guns trembled. Huihe took Yanshou to look at it, and said sadly: "Our courage is broken. What do we have to fight with?"
Yanshou turned pale, finally closed his eyes, untied his knife and went down the mountain.
Everyone knew at a glance that he agreed to surrender.
