Chapter 1219

The next morning, when the sun just came out, the Tang army had already appeared under the eldest son's city. With the war drums of Tian Yu's army, thousands of Tang soldiers had begun to approach the three walls of the eldest son's city. Zhongjun, Tian Yu looked at the situation at the head of the city and frowned.

"No, the situation in the city is not right!" Suddenly, Tian Yu opened his mouth;

the deputy general next to him also realized that the situation at the head of the city was not normal, because as the soldiers of the Tang army approached the city wall, there was a counterattack at the head of the city, but it was completely different from yesterday's in good order. Today's head of the city seemed very chaotic, as if the counterattack of the soldiers of Zhao was just an instinctive reaction.

"Is it Zhang Yang's trap?" Tian Yu said to himself;

however, at this time, the siege soldiers were almost in front of the moat, so it was impossible for Tian Yu to order the soldiers to retreat. However, he gave an order to the deputy general next to him: "pass on the order. The soldiers of the second wave are well prepared. Once they find something abnormal, they will take over the soldiers of the first wave."

"No, the general will take orders!"

At this moment, a cavalry galloped from the East, while running, the cavalry also cried out: "general! Old thief Zhang Yang ran away Zhang Yang ran away... "

At this time, Tian Yu was stunned, and he looked at the cavalry. A moment later, the cavalry came to the nest car of the Chinese army. He got off the horse, ran to the nest car quickly, and reported loudly: "general, two quarters of an hour ago, the north gate of the eldest son city suddenly opened, from which more than 1000 cavalry rushed out, directly broke through the defense of our cavalry, and fled to the north. The leader was a middle-aged general. Chen Xiaowei recognized that it was yesterday Old thief Zhang Yang at the head of the city

"More than a thousand cavalry? How can there be so many cavalry in the city? Besides, you have three thousand cavalry. Can't you stop more than one thousand cavalry? " Tian Yu asked with a dignified face;

"general Hui, when these cavalry rushed out of the city, we were ready to meet the enemy in formation, but the more than 500 cavalry headed by he was too strong. In a hurry, the cavalry formation was broken through by Zhao cavalry, and we did our best to leave less than 300 cavalry behind, or let the other 1000 cavalry break through, and then these cavalry did not make any contribution Stop straight north, General Chen has led the cavalry to catch up. He specially sent his subordinates to report to the general! " The cavalry gasped and replied;

"are you sure that the chief general is Zhang Yang?" Tian Yu said in a deep voice;

"no mistake, General Chen, general Xie and other generals have confirmed it!" The visitor answered firmly,

"Damn it!" Tian Yu put the fence in front of him, "we are all cheated by this little old man. Come on, order a full-scale attack. At the same time, order the soldiers to shout in unison. Zhang Yang has run away. The defenders in the city will not die if they abandon their weapons and surrender! There is no amnesty for those who resist

"No!"

"Dong Dong Dong..."

"Wuwu..."

"Zhang Yang ran away! The general has orders. Those who surrender will not die! There is no amnesty for those who resist

"Those who surrender will not die! There is no amnesty for those who resist

"Those who surrender will not die! There is no amnesty for those who resist

……

"Kill! Kill! Kill

As expected, the garrison at the head of the city also found that today's situation was somewhat abnormal. Now when they heard the cry of the Tang army at the foot of the city, they looked around, not to mention Taishou Zhang Yang. All the soldiers who killed the enemy at the head of the city yesterday disappeared. They didn't understand what was going on. So with a cry, the newly recruited soldiers dropped their weapons The weapons turned around and ran. Soon, the soldiers in the top of the city all followed the same pattern. One by one, they threw down their mouths, fled and surrendered.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the Tang soldiers who attacked the city climbed up the city wall smoothly. Then some people guarded the Zhao soldiers who knelt down and surrendered. Some people ran to the tower, put down the suspension bridge, ran down the city wall and opened the city gate. Thousands of Tang soldiers who had been waiting outside the city gate rushed into the eldest son's city like a tide, and Shangdang's county city fell into the city In the hands of the Tang army.

Although he has conquered the eldest son City, Tian Yu's face is not half happy. On the contrary, he is depressed. He is ready to fight with all his strength. The most depressing thing for Tian Yu is that Zhang Yang ran away. If Zhang Yang could be captured or killed, it would be much easier to pacify the Shangdang. Now that Zhang Yang runs away, it means that the next war will be more and more difficult.

Half an hour later, the city was under control. Under the protection of his own soldiers, Tian Yu entered the city and went directly to the prefect's residence.

Soon Shi a followed him and reported to Tian Yu: "general, I've made it clear that the old thief Zhang Yang was ready last night."

With that, Shi a told Tian Yu what he had learned. It turns out that last night, Zhang Yang arranged for LV Jiu to gather the wolves in the city and escort Chang Shi to leave directly from the north gate. Zhang Yang's bodyguard commander selected nearly a thousand soldiers from the garrison overnight. In the name of supplementing the bodyguards, all of them were incorporated into his bodyguards, and all the horses in the city were collected. Then, early this morning, in the name of going out of the city and raiding the Tang army, he will order the north gate guard to open the gate and go out of the city directly.At first, the general of the north gate thought that he was really going to attack the Tang army, but he didn't expect that he ran away with his own soldiers.

What Tian Yu didn't know was that Zhang Yang not only ran away, but also transferred 2000 garrison troops and 5000 troops from Hukou pass to Huguan county last night. Today, there are more than 10000 troops in Huguan county. Zhang Yang, who fled all the way to Huguan County, immediately selected all the elite soldiers and guards and incorporated them into his own pro guard army, reorganizing 1000 cavalry and 3000 soldiers.

In addition, in the past two days, Zhang Yang has ordered some grain and grass to be transported from other cities one after another. Today's Huguan county is full of soldiers and food. With these supports, Zhang Yang is confident that he can hold Huguan county for one or two months. It's mid September now, and if he's lucky, maybe the first snow will come early this winter, and he's confident that he'll keep it till next year.

At noon, after the cavalry returned to the eldest son City, Tian Yu knew that Zhang Yang had even given up the garrison. After getting the news, Tian Yu could not help but admire Zhang Yang's decision. However, admiration belongs to admiration, but Tunliu still needs to be occupied, so he immediately sent two thousand soldiers and horses to Tunliu to control the city.
