Chapter 143 [City Break]
On the white land, less than forty miles from Hanye City, the two thousand vanguard battalions of the Han family army advanced without any force, and the formation was chaotic. When they looked like a defeated army that had just been defeated.
The sound of hooves rumbled and the earth shook. Not far from the front of the Han family's vanguard camp, a large number of black shadows appeared. In front of them was a team of cavalry with golden swords and iron horses, shouting and rushing towards the vanguard camp.
"The Ye family army is here!" Someone in the Pioneer Camp shouted: "Run quickly!"
As a result, the already chaotic Pioneer Battalion was even more messy, turning its direction and rushing to retreat like a tide. Many soldiers even didn't even need helmets to avoid affecting the speed of escape and throwing their helmets and abandoning their armor.
Ye Miao saw the Han family's Pioneer Camp ahead and was in a mess. He was even more excited. He waved his sword and shouted loudly: "Roar, judge the reward by the head!"
When the Ye family army saw the Han family retreat, their originally sluggish morale suddenly rose, and they listened to the people's rewards, and they were even more rushing to the forefront. The two thousand Ye family army suddenly became like wolves and tigers, bravely chasing the retreating Han family army's vanguard camp.
Ye Miao took the lead. This was when he was building great achievements, but he was full of energy.
He chased for ten miles and suddenly saw a group of people in front of him coming straight from the fleeing army. They were all cavalrymen, waving their sabers, coming in full force without any sign of defeat.
Ye Miao was surprised. The general who had reminded him earlier had approached and said, "Young Master, I'm afraid we'll fall into the trap."
"Snare?" Ye Miao frowned and said, "What trap?"
"The Han family's Pioneer Camp is probably deliberately attracting us." The general said seriously: "This group of cavalry is probably waiting here for a long time."
The Han family's cavalry regiment was not large in number, only about a thousand people, but the momentum was very strong.
"Isn't it just a team of cavalry?" Ye Miao said disdainfully: "Our number is more than them." He waved his sword and was about to rush forward, but he heard a scream coming from behind him.
He looked back and was really surprised at this moment.
I saw a sudden overwhelming flag from both sides of the flanks, and a large group of Han soldiers rushed over as if they were coming out from the ground.
"Not good!" Ye Miao finally realized that he was really ambushed.
The general said in a deep voice: "Young Master, let's retreat quickly and we can't fight with them!"
Ye Miao hurriedly said, "Retreat quickly, retreat quickly!" Turning his horse's head, shouting, "Retreat quickly to the city." The Ye family army, who had been chasing the Han family's vanguard camp, was suddenly in chaos. Amid the scolding of Ye Miao and the generals, they turned around and ran away.
But before I could go a few steps, a large number of Han family troops also appeared on the way, waving their swords and carrying spears, rushing towards here.
At this moment, the two thousand Ye family troops were surrounded by the Han family troops, and there was no way out.
"Damn!" Ye Miao was extremely angry and held the big knife tightly. The change came too suddenly and he couldn't accept it. However, in this case, he could only wave the knife and shout: "Brothers, kill me and rush back to the city!"
The Han family cavalry regiment rushed over in a blink of an eye, waving the sabre and blood was shining. The panicked Ye family army was really vulnerable at this time.
Tens of thousands of Han family troops surrounded them from all sides and caught turtles in the jar. The Ye family troops were already weak. At this time, they were ambushed and their morale was even disintegrating and had no fighting spirit. Many people even threw down their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their arms, which was to surrender.
The battle ended from the beginning, and it was astonishingly fast. When Ye Miao was taken down by several soldiers, the entire battle was declared over. The Ye family army suffered about 100 casualties, most of which surrendered, while the Han family army had no more than ten casualties.
Ye Miao struggled, but was tied tightly by the rope, and was even held by two strong soldiers and could not move.
Several cavalry slowly emerged from the military formation, and several generals surrounded him. The man looked like a jade-like face and looked elegant, but he didn't wear a helmet. He rode his horse to Ye Miao, looked up and down at Ye Miao, then shook his head and sighed: "I think that King Pingshan was also a hero back then, but his descendants were so unbearable, which is really regrettable."
"Who are you?" Ye Miao stared at the visitor, and fire spurted out from his eyes.
The man smiled faintly and stroked his beard and said, "If you are not stupid, you should know the name of me."
Ye Miao's pupils shrank, as if he was thinking about something, and his face showed disbelief and said in surprise: "Can you... are you Han Xuanchang? No, it's absolutely impossible!"
"What's impossible?" Han Xuanchang asked with a faint smile.
"Han Xuanchang has been killed by the black rat, even with his helmet..." Ye Miao suddenly realized something, his body was chilling, and woke up: "Isn't the group of black rats who went back... not... not true?"
"It seems you are not stupid!" Han Xuanchang sighed: "How can you get a tiger's son if you don't enter the tiger's den? We take the risk of making money out of the city. I didn't expect that you were arrogant and eager to achieve success, and you were so easily trapped."
Ye Miao is now very regretful. He shouldn’t have listened to the persuasion of his generals. Now that things have come to this point, there is nothing to say.
"Conquer the weapons and quickly advance towards the west gate of Hanye City." Han Xuanchang ordered, and the Han family army immediately gathered the army. This effortless victory made them even more vigorously drive towards Hanye City.
...
Inside Hanye City.
Ye Wuxun heard that Ye Miao led two thousand defenders out of the city from the west gate, and wanted to raid the Han family army. He was furious and a mouthful of blood spurted out, which was so shocked that he hurried forward to support him.
After a while, he woke up slowly, and the whole hall was filled with sadness.
"I can't die." Ye Wuxun sat upright and asked, "Does that stupid pig come back if there is any news?"
The "stupid pig" he mentioned naturally refers to Ye Miao.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally someone came forward to report: "The master, there is no news from the eldest son, but...but...!" He didn't dare to continue talking for a moment.
"Say!" Ye Wuxun said sternly.
The man had no choice but to say, "But the Xiao family's army had arrived at the main gate and set up a formation, and the Su family's army had also arrived less than ten miles outside the north gate to station."
"What?" Ye Wuxun was shocked. He looked up and looked out the door. The sky was already dark, as if it was heralding that the fate of the Ye family began to turn dark.
When the Xiao family and the Su family arrived at the city, it means that neither of the black rats from both routes succeeded.
"Just just got the letter from Feige, the aristocratic army on the other side of the Elbe River seemed to have also received the news that Ligu Pass was broken. After forcing the Elbe River, the Wu family's army had retreated to Lantian City." The elder looked bitter and said, "At this time, I'm afraid that Lantian City will also be surrounded by the aristocratic army."
Ye Wuxun stood up, picked up the sword on the table, pulled out the cold long sword. The sword edge was cold and the cold light was faint, and he said with a blue face: "A group of untouchables, they destroyed our Ye family!"
He only thought that it was the people of all counties and prefectures, and that turned against the Ye family, which led to the defeat of the Ye family.
One of the people immediately flattered and said, "What the master of the sect is saying is that they are all those untouchables. Once this matter is over, they must punish them well so that they can know the power of our Ye family. Over the years, our Ye family has been too kind to them."
Ye Wuxun's gloomy eyes immediately stared at him, his eyes were filled with resentment, and he sneered: "What did you say?"
This man was a child of the Ye family's side branch. Seeing that the sect leader looked bad, he felt a trembling heart and secretly regretted not being flattered. Cold sweat came out from his forehead and said tremblingly: "Sector leader, I... I mean those untouchables should... die..."
"They deserve to die!" Ye Wuxun held the sword and walked slowly towards the man, saying coldly: "But some people deserve to die even more. Ye Jian, do you think I am already confused? Do you think I have no ability to distinguish right from wrong? Those untold people will naturally be unforgivable to betray my Ye family, but if you have today, are you not responsible?"
He walked very slowly. Every time he took a step, everyone was shocked. Everyone who approached was retreating one after another, leaving the Ye Jian in the middle.
Ye Jian was like a sieve of bran, his whole body was trembling, but under Ye Wuxun's cold gaze, he did not dare to move.
"Ye Jian, in the past few years, you have occupied a lot of land and bullied many women. Even those merchants have exploited a lot of money. Do you think I don't know these things?" Ye Wuxun held the sword tightly, and his eyes were about to spit out fire: "A month ago, you snatched two women and killed their family members. You thought you were secretly doing this, but there were so many people who knew it. It was your lawlessness that made people's livelihood complain. I ask you, should you die?"
Ye Jian knelt down on the ground with a trembling voice: "Major Sect Master...Major Sect Master...I...!" Seeing Ye Wuxun lifting up his sword, he shouted: "Major Sect Master, please spare your life..."
Ye Wuxun showed murderous intent and sneered: "Our Ye family is about to perish, so you can take the lead!" The sharp long sword immediately pierced Ye Jian's chest.
Everyone around exclaimed in surprise, and they were silent for a moment, for fear that the capricious sect leader would vent his anger on him.
The Great Elder sighed and waved his hand, "Don't you drag him down yet!" Someone immediately stepped forward and dragged Ye Jian's body down.
Ye Wuxun killed someone, and his anger seemed to have subsided. He held the sword and sat down. He gasped, glanced at the people in his arms and said coldly: "The Ye family is destroyed in the hands of you. Now that the army is in the forefront, no one of you can escape. The poor foundation of his ancestors has been ruined like this."
Until this time, he could not reflect on himself and blamed others for all the responsibilities.
The Great Elder said in a deep voice: "The Great Master, it is useless to blame anyone now. The most urgent task is to defend Hanye City. Although we have weak troops, we have enough materials and try our best to defend the four gates. The aristocratic army will not attack the four gates regardless of casualties. As long as we defend for one or two days and repel their attacks several times, we can negotiate peace with them at that time. We must always keep the blood of the Ye family!"
At this moment, I heard a terrified voice outside saying, "Call in, hit in!" A man rolled and crawled into the hall, and said in panic: "Master, they... they hit in..."
The Ye family members suddenly changed color. Ye Wuxun quickly stepped forward with his sword and shouted, "Who has hit in? Where did you get?"
As soon as the words fell, a sound of swords and swords and swords came from the front yard of Ye’s mansion, and a group of people even heard: “Catch Ye Wuxun, don’t let that old guy run away!”
