LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 378
The words have not yet fallen
"Whoosh~~"
A sharp arrow shot through the air from behind.
Yan Yan suddenly saw the light of the arrow and wanted to remind Yang Huaishi, but it was too late.
"puff!"
The sharp arrow hit Yang Huai in the back of the head.
Yang Huai's figure shook, and his expression froze in a moment of stunned pain.
After shaking a few times, his body tilted and fell suddenly to the foot of the horse.
When he fell to the ground, The face, twisted and ferocious in pain, faced Yan Yan.
Yan Yan shivered, and the remaining persistence collapsed in an instant.
Fear.
He felt fear.
"He is right. If I insist on fighting to the death, I will die here."
"Not only will the entire army be wiped out, I will also be dead."
"Since the annihilation of the entire army is a foregone conclusion, why should I fight to the death?"
"It's better to keep a useful life, go back and fight for Duke Shu again, and make up for your past mistakes..."
Yan Yan's thoughts were racing, weighing the pros and cons in his mind, and he calmed down completely in the blink of an eye.
Escape!
Escape back to Mianzhu.
At this time, Yan Yan Yan, only this thought remained in his mind.
So he did not dare to fight, slashed wildly with his sword, and rushed towards the mouth of the valley with all his strength. With his martial arts, he beheaded countless people, and finally rushed out before the Han army completely blocked the mouth of the valley. A road of blood was drawn. Looking back 370 meters away, the entire valley road was stained with blood.
Tens of thousands of Shu army soldiers were isolated in the south and sealed in the valley road.
The tragic howls could be heard faintly one after another. , every sound was like a sharp blade, cutting hard into his heart.
"Guan Yu, Deng Mu!"
"You sternly swear that I will repay you for today’s shame tenfold!"
Yan Yan secretly swore a strong oath.
There was no anger in him, so he could only swear a strong oath.
After a helpless sigh, Yan Yan had no choice but to clamp his horse's belly, dragging his lonely body, and looked in the direction of Mianzhu City Escape.
In the valley, more than 30,000 Shu troops were suffering from the disaster.
Fortunately, they were not determined men. Most of the Shu soldiers, seeing that Yan Yan had fled and there was no hope of breaking out, chose to kneel on the ground. Surrender.
There were more than 30,000 people, and more than 20,000 people surrendered. More than 5,000 people were killed or injured, and those who escaped from the valley road were less than 3,000 remnants. When the setting sun set, the killing finally ended.
Throughout the valley, there was a roar. The screams of the Han army athletes were loud.
They were shouting and jumping for joy, celebrating this exciting victory.
"The number of enemies wiped out in this battle should be around 30,000"
"Liu Zhang should no longer have the strength to stop General Guan from approaching Chengdu."
"Winning Chengdu is just around the corner."
Deng Mu pointed at the situation in the valley with his wine glass, and looked at Guan Yu with a smile.
Guan Yu stroked his beautiful beard, his face was burning with respect, and he sighed:
"Such a clever plan easily destroyed 30,000 Shu troops."
"Ziyu, after all these years, your resourcefulness has not changed."
Guan Yu sighed with emotion for a long time.
Zhang Song, Fazheng, and even Ma Di and other advisers were all impressed by Deng Mu's wisdom.
Deng Mu only smiled and pointed his wine glass to the north:
"All 30,000 troops and horses were lost, and Yan Yan’s remaining troops should only be in the thousands."
"General Guan, let's work together to flatten Mianzhu! Guan
Yu laughed loudly and pointed his sword:
"The order was sent, and the whole army continued to march north without rest and reorganization, directly taking Mianzhu."
The order was passed, and the fighting spirit of the three armies was like crazy.
More than 40,000 Han troops, with the power of victory, marched northward in a mighty manner, heading straight for the important town of Mianzhu
…
Mianzhu City.
Inside the mansion, the light was dim and lifeless.
Yan Yan, who was sitting high on the table, was resting his forehead on his hands, savoring the bitterness of the defeat. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"Our army lost 30,000 soldiers in this battle, and less than 3,000 escaped."
"There are less than 7,000 soldiers and horses available in my city."
"Now the Han army has arrived at the city, and it is clear that they are going to lay siege to the city and attack it fiercely."
"General Yan, we must make a decision quickly. Should we abandon the city and retreat south, or go to the Duke of Shu for help?~~"
Gao Pei reported the battle damage and reminded Yan Yan with a grimace. (bheh)
"If Mianzhu is lost, Chengdu will lose all its barriers"
"Even if I escape back to Chengdu, how can I have the face to see Duke Shu?"
Yan Yan didn't react angrily.
Gao Pei swallowed his saliva after being scolded, but sighed:
"But if we don't abandon Mianzhu, we only have 7,000 soldiers and horses, and our morale is so low, how can we defend the city? Yan
Yan slapped the table and said proudly:
"I have guarded the city all my life, and the thing I am least afraid of is being besieged."
"What happened to the seven thousand soldiers and horses? I can still defend Mianzhu."
"I don't believe that Guan Yu can break my city!"
Gao Pei was silent[]
Yan Yan was not praising Haikou.
After all, Yan Yan is known as the best defensive general in Sichuan. He has guarded Jiangzhou for most of his life and has never made any mistakes.
Yan Yan said that he was confident that he could defend Mianzhu City with 7,000 troops. Who did he have the right to question?
"So, are we going to stick to Mianzhu like this? Gao
Pei asked cautiously.
Yan Yan pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said:
"Naturally, we must defend to the death, but we must also leave some backup options."
"After passing the order, while guarding Mianzhu, he sent people to Chengdu to quickly ask for help from Duke Shu!"
Yan Yan did not dare to be arrogant and chose to ask Liu Zhang for help.
Gao Pei breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed the order.
So
Yan Yan sent an envoy to escape from Mianzhu on a starry night journey and went to Chengdu to ask Liu Zhang for help.
At the same time,
Yan Yan Then he mobilized all the available soldiers in the city and climbed to the top of the city, preparing to defend Mianzhu.
Unfortunately, his defense was wishful thinking.
With Guan Yu's order, nearly a hundred Xiangyang divine cannons were built within a few days. came out.
When Wu Yifazheng and others saw the Xiangyang cannon, they were all shocked.
"Is this thing the legendary Xiangyang Cannon, the world's number one siege weapon?"
Wu Yi looked at this behemoth, with shock and astonishment on his face.
Guan Yu stroked his beautiful beard and nodded with a smile:
"You guessed it right, this is the most powerful siege weapon in history built by Prime Minister Deng for the emperor."
"The Xiangyang Cannon is this thing!"
Wu Yi was amazed.
Over the years, he had naturally heard of the legend of the Xiangyang Cannon.
But he had always thought that it was just a rumor.
But he did not expect that today he saw it with his own eyes. This Xiangyang Cannon actually existed..Wu
Yi, how can we not be shocked by this?
"This Mianzhu City is not built of rocks. It should not be able to stop our Xiangyang artillery."
"General Guan, let Yan Yan feel what fear is."
Deng Mu sneered.
Guan Yu's eyes surged with murderous intent and he shouted:
"Send the order, and the whole army will assemble in the city immediately."
"Ben was going to use the Xiangyang Cannon to destroy Mianzhu City!".
