Chapter 149: Four doors open at the same time

A spark can start a prairie fire. At present, Anzhou City is in this state, with a fire in half and a snow covered with snow.

On the south city tower, King Yu faced the Tang army that had stopped the fire attack and asked, "How sure are you?"

"Fifty percent" Xuan Shaoning answered neatly.

"Do you know, once the city of Anzhou is broken, what does it mean for those cities on the other side of Taoshui?"

"The last general knows that our army has been defending Anzhou City for ten days, and the number of signals sent by us has not less than five times during this period, but the cities on the other side have no response."

"This is not a reason why we, as soldiers, can give up strategically!"

"General, Anzhou City can't last long. According to the current fire, the entire city will be swallowed up by the fire in less than half a day. Should we let tens of thousands of Liang soldiers and tens of thousands of people be buried with Anzhou City?"

"The enemy's siege is three and one is missing. The intention is so obvious. How much difference is there for us to take the initiative to bury each other?"

"The last general's plan is to make the enemy think we are trapped."

"Tell me more."

"The four gates are opened together, so that the enemy does not know which side we plan to evacuate. The number of enemies outside the North Gate is the smallest, so it is not difficult to solve. The Tao River has been investigated before, and it depends on the heavy snow and freezing of days, and the Tao River has frozen."

"The four doors are open together?" King Yu turned around and stared at Xuan Shaoning and said, "Do you know what this means?"

"Sacrifice! The last general is willing to lead his army to break through one goal!"

King Yu turned around and turned his gaze to the southern battlefield again, "Sacrificing one side may leave a chance to live on three sides."

"General, please leave it to me on the battlefield in the south!"

It was not Xuan Shaoning who said this, but Peng Anze who had been standing on the top of the city. He knelt on one knee and asked for battle, "The south is the main force of the Tang army. The half-day fire attack has consumed almost all their Qingying. It is the time when the Tun Company exert its power. The last general is willing to lead all Tun Company guards out of the city to meet the enemy and buy time for the army to retreat!"

"There is no doubt that Commander Peng said that his father is the most in line with the current situation of the war." Shen Yongnian advised: "General, the last general is willing to lead the left-ranking guard to break through the west gate!"

"Many people can make sacrifices, but once we do it, we cannot make sacrifices in vain."

"General, it is irreversible that the city of Anzhou is broken, but this does not mean that the enemy can drive straight into other cities!"

"you mean?"

"At the time when our army rushed to Anzhou to support Anzhou, we carried a large amount of gunpowder. When we retreated, the frozen water surface would be blown up. Although the Tao River has a frozen period every year, the Tao River flows rapidly, and the temperature is not as good as the northern part of the world. Although the Tao River will freeze, it is not that kind of tough ice layer. Our army can survive, and it is not difficult to blow up the ice surface."

"Then it's a confrontation across the river!"

"That's right, Xia Tang has a strong naval army. Although we are not as good as Xia Tang in this regard, Suzhou has a naval army yamen. Moreover, Xia Tang's naval army is all on the sea, but Tao River is an inland river and does not enter the sea at all. Xia Tang has no chance to send naval army to support. As long as the general can safely arrive on the other side, he can order Suzhou naval army to go upstream to attack the enemy."

"It's not unthinkable that the Suzhou naval army has always been affiliated with the Ministry of War and is not controlled by the Four Army. The general can indeed force the navy to command the navy with his identity as a prince, but the consequences..." Shen Yongnian told the crux of the matter.

"I can't care about so many consequences. If my father knew that Anzhou City was broken, he would understand my helplessness in using the navy."

King Yu saw smoke and dust rising on the battlefield of the South Gate. Judging from the flag, it was the Xiliang cavalry that had gone to battle, and the stone throwing machines behind the cavalry had already been in place. Soon the huge rocks would hit Anzhou City like raindrops.

"Just follow your plan!" King Yu suddenly turned around, staring at Peng Anze and said, "Tunlian goes out of the city to meet the enemy, but remember, you must come back alive!"

When Duan Lang led the remaining firefighting team to the near north gate, he met Ling Feiyan, Siheng and Xinggang who had already evacuated there. The wounded and the people were all concentrated in the only city north that was not attacked by ghost fire.

The north of the city was guarded by Ou Luyang. He stood on the top of the city and had long seen the fires in the city. Seeing the fires connected in pieces, burning more and more vigorously, he swallowed the ordinary city in a few hours. Ou Luyang's face was covered with blue color reflected by the flames, and he only knew the fear in his heart. As the commander of the Golden Armor Guard, he must remain calm, even at the moment of life and death.

"Why are there only these people?" Duan Lang looked at the wounded and asked Ling Feiyan.

"It's good to be able to rescue them. Ghost Fire is like a life, chasing people. Once caught up with ghost fire, it will soon become a fireball."

"The same is true here." Xing Gang pointed to the people behind him, "I evacuated the people with the Jinjia Guard, but because the people were all placed near the Ximen, after the ghost fire burned, many people were also burned to death. They were the only ones who were still alive."

"What should I do now? The fire is so fierce that it will spread here in less than a few hours. If we still can't stand it, then there will be only one outcome." Siheng said a little pessimistically, "Instead of letting me be burned to death by these ghost fires, I would rather go to the battlefield and cut off more enemies!"

"You're right, then, your chance comes!"

Everyone looked back and Ou Luyang walked down the city tower with a serious expression and said to all the Golden Armored Guards: "I just received the general's military order, ordering us to open the city gate, rush out, and fight out a bloody road, and be able to escape along Taoshui to the other side!"

"It's just my wish!" Siheng roared excitedly.

Duan Lang immediately shouted: "This is Shao Ning's idea. It must be the general who accepted his proposal!"

"So what?" Ou Luyang stared at Duan Lang and said, "The four gates are opened together. Isn't this letting the robes of the other three gates die in vain? Captain Xuan is planning to sacrifice everyone to save a few people!"

"Otherwise, will Commander Ou have a better idea?" Ling Feiyan asked back: "The enemy besieged us, and the city is about to be swallowed up by fire. Are there any other ways we can choose besides taking the initiative to attack? Taoshui has frozen, and the number of enemies in the North Gate is not large. We are the most hopeful people to escape. Only when we are alive can we let the Chinese people know what happened in Anzhou City!"

"What Chief Ling said is! Everyone is ready. Once the signal is received, the four doors will open together. Then we will have a fierce battle!"

Ou Luyang drew his sword and ordered his golden armored guards to line up near the city gate. Soon, a fireworks soared into the sky, which was a signal that the four gates opened together!

The south gate opened wide, and the Tunlian Guard rushed out, and the last hundreds of chariots formed a huge convoy to fight against the Xiliang cavalry who were running towards him. Peng Anze was still the leader. With the previous lessons, he arranged two shield players and two spearmen on each chariot.

The enemy of Tunlianwei, Xiliang cavalry, rode a horse and made shouts, especially Bei Chunkang, who was rushing in the front. The little test four days ago was still unsatisfied. He had been holding it in for a long time and was about to have a refreshing battle. He licked his dry lips with his tongue, and he seemed to have smelled the smell of blood.

The west gate opened, and He Yunke led a thousand left-ranking guards to fight the Xia Tang cavalry that besieged them. It was these enemies that despicable and shameless enemies used ghost fire like Qingying to kill countless robes, making them die so painfully and so worthless! I, He Yunke, want to get back this account on behalf of all the brothers who died in battle!

The east gate opened, and the one who fought against the Tang soldiers was Geng Yan. His command was all Golden Armored Guards. As infantrymen, their combat effectiveness was below the cavalry, but they no longer cared about so much at this moment. Even if they were three to one, or even more lives were lost, they had to complete the tasks assigned by the general and completely defeated the enemy on the battlefield in the east.

The efforts of the three-sided battlefield were to break through the north. King Yu, accompanied by Shen Yongnian and Xuan Shaoning, rode his horse from the south gate toward the north gate. After the north gate was opened, Ou Luyang was also charged forward, but the number of people under his command was not large, and he also brought the people and the wounded.
