Chapter 326: Cruel
"cannot……"
Murong Wen was shocked by Tiemuta's order. He tried to stop him, but it was already too late.
Beidi Langlu's scimitar swung down, and a Xiliang soldier immediately had an exposed wound on his face, and blood gushed out.
The Xiliang soldiers screamed.
"kill!"
At this time, the Beidi cavalry roared, tightened their reins and rushed towards the Xiliang soldiers.
Under the sun, their scimitars flashed with metallic luster and kept flying.
Red blood splashed into the sky as the scimitar danced.
The Xiliang soldiers were stunned by the sudden attack from Beidi.
After being stunned for a long time, they came back to their senses.
Frightened, they immediately turned back to the same pass.
But at this time, Xiliang soldiers continued to escape from the city.
The Xiliang soldiers outside wanted to go in, and the Xiliang soldiers inside wanted to come out.
The two waves of people crowded together at the city gate and were in a stalemate.
"Kill, kill them all." Immediately, Tiemuta became more and more anxious when he saw this scene.
Whether Beidi can occupy Tongguan means whether Beidi can take the lead in the war with Dasong.
Now that he has the same qualification at his fingertips, he will never let this opportunity pass him by.
"King Temuta, ask your soldiers to stop. You can't massacre our Xiliang soldiers like this. We are our own people now." After being stunned for a while by Beidi's brutality, Murong Wen said again.
"Shut up!" Temuta roared angrily, "I can only get the same qualification, so what if these people die."
Murong Wen's face turned pale and he did not dare to say anything more.
Within the pass.
Under the offensive of the palace soldiers, the Xiliang soldiers completely collapsed.
No Xiliang soldiers in the city dared to charge against the royal soldiers.
Led by the general, the soldiers strode towards Beicheng.
The inner city of Beicheng was getting closer and closer to them.
But at this moment, they discovered something was wrong.
The fleeing Xiliang soldiers seemed to be blocked at the city gate, crowded together.
Seeing this, Chang Wei and the generals climbed to the second floor of a restaurant in the city and used a monocular to observe the location of the city gate.
It was found that there were Xiliang soldiers squeezing into the gate at this time, and their faces were very frightened, so the soldiers in the city could not escape from the city.
"Could it be that the reinforcements from Xiliang have arrived?" Guan Tong was beside Chang Wei.
At this moment, they were still five hundred meters away from the north gate, and it was impossible to judge.
"Speed up the march immediately, concentrate the artillery, and aim at the city gate." Chang Wei looked solemn.
The Xiliang soldiers who suddenly fled were now trying to escape back.
The first possibility is that Guan Tong said that reinforcements from Xiliang have arrived.
They were forced back.
The second possibility made his heart sink, that is, the Beidi army had arrived outside the city.
Seeing Chang Wei's serious face, Guan Tong suddenly thought of the Beidi army going to Tongguan, and his heart became cold.
In response, he immediately got out of the restaurant, causing the scattered artillery to gather together during the march.
At the same time, the fusiliers were ordered not to march slowly in strict formation, but to run.
The order was given, and the soldier leaned his flintlock on his shoulder and trotted all the way to Beicheng.
When they were more than 200 meters away, they stopped, reorganized their formation and pushed towards the Xiliang soldiers.
The artillerymen also deployed their artillery pieces directly opposite the gate.
Seeing the soldiers of King Yan approaching, the soldiers of Xiliang were even more frightened and rushed towards the north gate.
The Xiliang soldiers who came in from outside the city were squeezed and retreated.
But immediately, the Xiliang soldiers who came out turned around and crowded in.
"Xu Hai, Luo Peng, each of you lead five hundred heavy cavalry to attack the city wall, occupy the north wall, and see what's going on outside?" Chang Wei shouted.
These two young men are both heavy infantry captains.
After receiving the order, they each led their soldiers, one to the west and one to the east, to rush towards the northern city wall.
Since the southern city was broken, there was no need for Xiliang soldiers to guard the northern wall.
After fleeing in panic, there were no Xiliang soldiers on the city wall at all.
There were still fleeing soldiers crowded together at the steps leading to the city wall.
When the two men rushed towards the steps, the Xiliang soldiers saw them approaching with murderous intent, and immediately fled in fear.
Xu Hai and Luo Peng were stunned for a moment, then ignored the Xiliang soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit and climbed up the city wall.
Looking down from the city wall, Xu Hai's expression changed drastically.
At this time, there were Beidi soldiers on the grassland outside the city as far as the eye could see.
These Beidi soldiers are killing Xiliang soldiers.
The ground is now littered with the corpses of Xiliang soldiers.
With less than 300 meters to go, the Beidi cavalry could reach the city gate.
"Whoosh..."
While he was observing, suddenly a dense sound of breaking through the air came.
It was like a hail of arrows flying from the Beidi Army.
"Hide the arrow!" Xu Hai was on the west side of the city wall, on top of the Beidi cavalry.
The other soldiers heard this and reacted quickly, immediately lying on the ground on the city wall.
Those who react slowly turn around, leaving their backs open for arrows.
"Dong dong dong..." A sound of metal clashing sounded.
After the rain of arrows, the plate armor covering their backs was filled with small holes dented by the arrows.
"Go and report to the general!" Xu Hai said to a small flag.
Xiaoqi immediately returned to the army from the city wall with his fifty soldiers.
"Sure enough, he is from Beidi." Xu Hai's people sent back the news, and Chang Wei's eyes narrowed.
Bai Shang said: "Damn Beidi people, they came just in time, let's kill them and make them cry for their parents."
Chang Wei shook his head, "Don't be reckless, Beidi people want to pass through the pass, and we also want to pass through the pass, we can't fight for the sake of fighting, this time we have sacrificed a lot of soldiers in Jin."
"Yes, General." Bai Shang touched his head, "But what can we do now? It will be troublesome if these Xiliang soldiers are killed by Beidi and rush back."
Chang Wei naturally understood this.
There are now five or six thousand Xiliang soldiers blocking the city gate.
If these people rush over, followed by Beidi soldiers, there will be another bloody battle.
So, before the Beidi people kill them at the city gate, they must close the gate.
"Send someone to let these Xiliang soldiers surrender, otherwise we will start a massacre." Chang Wei said.
Then he said to Guan Tong: "Let the soldiers continue to move forward and stop thirty meters in front of the Xiliang soldiers."
In response, Guan Tong ordered the soldiers to send flags and ordered the cavalry to pass messages back and forth.
At this time, the flintlock musket column moved forward again, and the artillery was also pushed forward.
At the same time, a team of cavalry rushed to the north gate, constantly shouting that they would not be killed if they surrendered.
Under the shouting of the cavalry, only a small number of Xiliang soldiers dropped their weapons and squatted along the western mountain wall with their heads in their arms as required.
But most of the Xiliang soldiers were still trying to escape from the city.
Because of the noise, they could not hear the screams of the Xiliang soldiers outside the city.
Not long after, the soldiers of the palace arrived at the designated location.
At this time, Chang Wei decisively issued an order, "Kill all the Xiliang soldiers!"
As a general in command, at this critical moment, he must be cold-blooded and ruthless.
