Chapter 472

Regardless of why that battle failed in the past.

When his hometown faced enemy invaders, Tian Yan stood up at the first opportunity.

Regardless of how many people pointed fingers and cursed him behind his back when he returned to his hometown.

But today, he proved with his actions that the reason he survived while twenty thousand men died was not because he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Tian Yan's death stirred the Han soldiers who were still struggling to hold on on the wall.

It seemed that at this moment, Tian Yan had returned to Hanyang Commandery more than ten years ago, still that great general who charged into bloody battles and inspired his soldiers.

"Avenge the Old General!"

"Kill!"

"Avenge Old General Tian!"

"Fight them to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

Roars rang out from the west wall of Yunwu City.

Wang Yi was also stunned.

A trace of panic appeared in her eyes.

Wang Yi did not panic when she climbed the wall and saw the Qiang army attacking the city.

She did not panic when she was fighting the enemy.

But watching Tian Yan, who had just been praising her, fall off the wall, Wang Yi stood there in a panic.

For a moment, she even forgot to kill the enemy.

But soon, the enemy's shouts of battle woke Wang Yi up.

Although Tian Yan's death brought about the soldiers' bravery.

But the number of enemies was simply too many.

And having lost Tian Yan's command, the speed at which the soldiers would collapse would only be faster.

Yunwu seemed to be unable to hold on.

However, at this moment.

Outside the city, the Qiang army attacking the city suddenly began to turn around.

Bursts of urgent war drums and horn sounds rang out one after another.

The Qiang soldiers on the wall were also stunned.

The Qiang soldiers who were still climbing the ladders began to retreat toward the bottom of the ladders.

"Reinforcements, it's reinforcements!"

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

On the horizon outside the city, near the rear of the Western Qiang camp.

A yellow dragon of dust rolled up into the sky.

In the dust, spears were like a forest, and warhorses neighed.

The sound of hooves was like thunder, and dust flew everywhere.

The cavalry, just appearing on the horizon, charged directly toward a camp on the right side of the Western Qiang with an unstoppable momentum.

All the soldiers on the wall, as well as Wang Yi, saw it clearly.

At the very front of the cavalry, a warhorse that seemed to be burning with flames led the way.

The great general, dressed in black armor and a red cloak, held a large halberd.

Looking from the walls of Yunwu.

Under the leadership of the great general, the cavalry behind him was like a sharp long sword, easily piercing through that small Western Qiang camp without any obstruction.

Then they galloped toward Yunwu with unstoppable momentum.

The closer they got, the more clearly Wang Yi could see.

The great general on the horse was extremely burly, and the red mount under his crotch was also extremely spirited.

Every time the great general swung the halberd in his hand, a sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling would ring out.

Any Qiang soldier who stood in his way would be instantly torn apart.

Blood sprayed into the air, gradually staining the armor on the great general's body.

Banners with the character "Duan" fluttered in the wind.

In the Western Qiang main camp.

Beigong Boyu, the old king of the Shaodang Qiang, and others naturally saw this scene as well.

"Duan Yu, that person is Duan Yu!"

Beigong Boyu pointed in the direction of Duan Yu.

"Duan Yu?"

The old king of the Shaodang Qiang had a grave expression.

Beigong Boyu, standing to the side, nodded repeatedly: "That's right, it's him."

"It is rumored that Duan Yu uses a large halberd, and every time he swings it, a sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling rings out."

"And those banners are clearly Duan Yu's commander banners."

The old king of the Shaodang Qiang was stunned at first, then shocked, saying: "Oh no, Duan Yu has arrived; doesn't that mean Jincheng has been broken?"

Beigong Boyu thought deeply with a grave expression, and after a long while, he shook his head and said: "Impossible."

"Absolutely impossible for it to be this fast."

"From the time we killed Chen Yi to Cheng Qiu tricking his way into Jincheng, it has only been a few days."

"Even if Duan Yu learned the news immediately and sent troops from Hanyang Commandery, at this time the army could at best only have reached Jincheng."

"And Jincheng has high walls and thick ramparts; they absolutely could not have broken it in just one day."

"Duan Yu appearing here... I estimate..."

"He must have come with a lone army, as for the main force, it should still be at Jincheng," Beigong Boyu analyzed.

"He came alone?"

The old king of the Shaodang Qiang frowned and said: "Even if Duan Yu has a thousand abilities, what can he do with just these cavalry?"

"Could it be that he wants to use this thousand cavalry to defeat our tens of thousands of troops?"

The old king of the Shaodang Qiang expressed doubt.

The many leaders of the Qiang tribes on the side were also very confused.

Beigong Boyu looked at the back of Duan Yu's cavalry, who were charging through the battlefield and were about to approach Yunwu County.

He...

What exactly does he want to do?

Just at this moment, the thousand cavalry led by Duan Yu had already arrived at a position close to the foot of Yunwu City.

"I am Duan Yu, the Prefect of Hanyang Commandery; whoever is defending the city, open the gates quickly."

Duan Yu roared.

The Heaven-Dragon Halberd in his hand swept away the Qiang soldiers blocking his path.

And at this time, most of the Qiang soldiers on the battlefield had already returned to the camp amidst the sound of retreating war drums and horns.

When Duan Yu appeared on the battlefield just now, Beigong Boyu and the others didn't know what was going on, so they blew their horns and ordered a retreat.

The bodies of the Qiang soldiers who were left stranded on the wall and eventually surrounded and killed were all thrown down from the wall.

And Zhao Ang, the County Magistrate of Yunwu, who had been cowering on the wall, only dared to poke his head out from behind the battlements when he heard there were reinforcements and that the Qiang had already retreated.

At this time, on the battlefield between Yunwu County and the Western Qiang camp, there were only the thousand cavalry led by Duan Yu.

When Zhao Ang saw Duan Yu and the cavalry behind him, his eyes couldn't help but look into the distance.

It seemed as if he was looking for something.

"Rein... reinforcements are just you people?"

Zhao Ang asked, looking at Duan Yu under the city.

Duan Yu frowned slightly.

"Why are there only these people?" The expression on Zhao Ang's face seemed very disappointed and somewhat confused.

"If I tell you to open the gate, open the gate! Where do you get so much nonsense!"

Tie Shitou behind Duan Yu roared angrily: "Open the city gate quickly and let us go in to rest!"

Since yesterday, Duan Yu had led the thousand cavalry almost without stopping. ===== CHAPTER 474 =====
