Looking at the mess all over the ground after the battle, Cai Xide, the commander of the Yan army, clenched his hands into fists. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info** finally lost to the fierce offensive of the Yan army, and fled the battlefield under the cover of the thick smoke from the pear flower gun.

Min Guangjie stammered in front of Cai Xide, and said in an extremely excited tone: "Tang Jun's Lao Shizi thing is really not a ghost, the general is as clever as a god, and the Shenwu army will be defeated in a battle!"

It's just that it's obviously not the right time for him to stutter, Cai Xide glared at him fiercely with a cold face, and then stopped paying attention to this stupid guy like a pig and dog.

The Yan army did defeat the Tang army with his extraordinary strength, but Cai Xide was not happy at all. Because this victory was won by him with more than 3,000 elite lives. Because when he inspected a messy battlefield, he found that there were very few corpses left, and not even a single weapon was left behind. What kind of rout is this, it is clearly an extremely orderly retreat!

The feeling of being teased filled Cai Xide's chest again, repeatedly bulging and expanding without a place to vent, only feeling extremely unbearable.

But Min Guangjie, a fool, regardless of the height of his eyebrows and eyes, also came up to flatter, making him as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.

At this point, Cai Xide has every reason to believe that Qin Jin and the Shenwu army are absolutely prepared for the surprise attack they designed, and Jinzhou's plan to lure the enemy has been equated with failure. But from another point of view, he fell for Qin Jin's paralysis plan. How can this keep him, who has always been arrogant, from being annoyed and angry?

Even if he knew that his plan had been seen through by Qin Jin, Cai Xide, with his severe and elite extraordinary combat effectiveness, still confidently believed that it would not be a problem to recapture Jiangxian. Now that the war has begun, there is absolutely no reason to retreat halfway. After realizing his situation, Cai Xide no longer held it up, and rushed straight to Jiangxian County while rushing forward. On the other hand, he sent an envoy to ask for help from Sun Xiaozhe's troops stationed in Xia County, asking him to attack the Shenwu army on both sides.

Now is not the time to save face, he wants to use all the power he can to defeat Qin Jin as much as possible. He had a hunch that if he didn't eliminate this person when he was still weak and his wings were not full, otherwise this person would become Dayan's henchman sooner or later.

Qin Jin returned to Jiangxian with the Shenwu army that had achieved his goal, but the 5,000 men of the former army still did not enter the city, but gathered in the valley of the Xiangshui River in the south of the county, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack. After the battle at the western foot of the Hugao Mountain, Qin Jin had a full understanding of Wang Qi's ability, so he entrusted him with full command, and could cooperate with the defenders in the city to fight the Yan army. And he himself entered the city and once again shouldered the burden of commanding and defending the city.

Cai Xide's troops and Qin Jin arrived in Jiangxian almost after the front foot, and Qin Jin immediately ordered the whole city to enter the highest level of combat readiness, and the generals and soldiers must be on duty day and night to prevent the Yan army from storming the county seat. However, Qin Jin's prediction came to naught, and for a whole day and night, the Yan army outside the city only made a symbolic harassment of the county seat, and the rest of the time was silent.

After observation, Qin Jin soon discovered that Cai Xide obviously had enough men and horses to block the four gates of the county seat, but he only blocked the city gates in the northeast, east and south. This is obviously a tactic of encircling three and missing one, and the purpose is to prevent the defenders in the city from having the heart to fight to the death because of the cut off of the rear road.

Not only Qin Jin, but also the high-level officials of the Shenwu Army, including Pei Jing, felt that Cai Xide was waiting for them to secretly abandon the city and flee, and then take over the county seat without blood.

After nightfall, Qin Jin summoned all the senior generals above the lieutenant colonel and above to hold a military meeting.

"Cai Xide's good calculation, how can there be anyone in my Shenwu army who is greedy for life and afraid of death? ”

Pei Jing's words have been recognized by the vast majority of people. Some people even thought that the two ambushes launched by Qin Jin in the Hugao Mountain did not have the desired effect, but also exposed the secret weapon of the Shenwu Army prematurely.

Only Qin Jin didn't say a word, he only felt that this was not Cai Xide's arrogance and contempt for the Shenwu Army. On the contrary, he thought that Cai Xide had suffered enough in the two ambushes in Hugao Mountain, and he had unconsciously become jealous of the Shenwu Army. The siege is missing one, and he is not in a hurry to attack the city, obviously for fear of causing unnecessary casualties, waiting for something.

Just when everyone was discussing, Qing Xuzi flashed into the main hall lightly, and when he saw Qin Jin, he went straight to the topic.

"Qin Envoy Jun quickly sent someone to take a look, the Yan army is digging tunnels outside the city, and the old Tao will soon dig through when he listens!"

Qin Jin was shocked when he heard this, and bounced up from the couch, if Cai Xide was allowed to dig through the tunnel, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At the same time, I faintly heard the sound of shouting outside the PCPD. Without waiting for Qin Jin to send someone to check and inquire, a soldier pushed the door in a panic.

"No, it's not good, the Yan army has entered the city!"

Hearing the news that Yan Jun had entered the city, Qin Jin only felt that his head was buzzing and exploding, and he was still a step too late.

At this moment, more than eighty percent of the generals at the rank of lieutenant colonel and lieutenant are holding meetings in the office. If the Yan army that broke into the city attacked Qin Jin's office, it would be very likely to kill them. But Qin Jin quickly rejected this idea, and speculated with common sense that usually after digging the tunnel, the first reaction should be to open the city gate, and the inside should be combined with the outside, and then he will have extra energy to do other things.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this idea popped into his mind, another soldier rushed in with a roar.

"Let Jun move quickly, the Yan soldiers who entered the city rushed straight to the office, our brothers were caught off guard and were seriously injured, and they couldn't stop it!"

Now Qin Jin's guards are all ordinary soldiers drawn from the army, and if Wu Hu Huaizhong is still around, this situation will never occur.

The generals present also persuaded Qin Jin to move to a safe place as soon as possible, and wait until the Yan soldiers who entered the city were pacified before showing up. But this is not Qin Jin's style of acting, he categorically rejected everyone's suggestions.

"Pei Jing, you immediately take someone to follow Qingxuzi Zhenren to block the tunnel mouth dug by the Yan army, and you must block it at any cost. ”

After sending away Pei Jing and Qing Xuzi, Qin Jin raised his arms and shouted: "Follow me to guard the office and wait for the reinforcements to join the outside!"

Qin Jin climbed the tower in the office and looked out, only to see at least hundreds of torches dotted around the main entrance of the office. I don't know if these people have spies in the city, or they rushed here by mistake.

There was a lot of commotion and shouting outside, and the door of the office suddenly shook violently, followed by two, three, and four times..... followed by the sound of a thump and a rhythmic sound of trumpets.

"Oh no, the thieves are banging on the door, go find wood to block the door!"

The gate of the office is a former palace, and the copper rivet gate is three inches behind, and it is difficult to destroy it when it is hit. Judging from the fact that more than a dozen people outside shouted the trumpet in unison, it could be heard that Yan Bing was banging on the gate with heavy wood.

However, the location of the tower is just the right place for the gate and the mulberry trees outside to block the view, so it is not clear to see the specific situation. Qin Jin commanded a group of captains to surround the Yan soldiers who climbed over the wall to enter the inside, and as time dragged on, the sharp spirit of the Yan soldiers outside the gate seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and the strength to attack the gate gradually became weaker.

Qin Jin knew that the time was almost up, and he was about to order to open the gate and rush out with him, but he heard a burst of roars quickly from far and near, and a tide rushed over, it was reinforcements.

Tonight's sudden turn of events was finally nipped in the bud, and with the arrival of reinforcements, there were only two paths to the fate of these people, the first was death, and the second was surrender.

However, Qin Jin didn't have time to wipe off the cold sweat on his head, and began to worry about whether the tunnels that had been dug through had been controlled by Pei Jing, in case he couldn't control it, a steady stream of people from outside would enter the city, allowing Yan Bing to gain a firm foothold, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Soon, the Yan soldiers outside were either killed or captured, and the captains who filled the courtyard opened the gate and hurried back to their respective armies. Qin Jin also came down from the tower and returned to the main hall to sit down, and then sent a large number of men and horses along the four gates to gradually check whether there were any omissions.

There was no danger this night, until dawn, the Yan soldiers who had infiltrated the city were completely killed and cleaned up.

The start of the raid was extremely successful, but it was anticlimactic, and a good hand of cards stinks. Qin Jin was a little confused, this is not in line with Cai Xide's style, is there anything else that can't happen?

After dawn, Pei Jing came back with Qingxuzi to restore his life, and the four tunnels that had been dug up had all been backfilled by him with boulders, and he wanted to dig up more than Tongtian Hainan.

Qin Jin personally interrogated the captured Yan soldiers, and soon got the news he wanted.

This tunnel sneak attack was indeed planned by Cai Xide, and a total of four tunnels were opened, and Cai Xide himself was also involved, but for some reason, after several people entered the city, Cai Xide's figure was not seen. So a group of people were in a hurry and scurried around the city like headless flies.

"Should I say that you are lucky, or not good, you bumped into the office by stumbling into it, but it's a pity, you fell short!"

Pei Jing said intentionally or unintentionally, but suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Say, who is the spy?

The captured Yan soldier was startled, and subconsciously said, "No, I don't know...... We all do what we are told......"

At this point, after Pei Jing's question, Qin Jin was already convinced that there were Cai Xide's spies in the city, but now that Yan Bing was outside the city, it was not the time to search for spies with great fanfare. Therefore, he only told Pei Jing to secretly pay attention to those people who were suspected of collaborating with the enemy.

"Get ready, from tomorrow the Yan army will inevitably attack the city in a big way. ”

Qin Jin's prediction was indeed correct, early the next morning, rumbling drums sounded outside the city, and large siege equipment such as cloud chariots and rushing cars slowly approached the city wall of Jiangxian County under the drive of thousands of Yan soldiers.

Obviously, these machines were built improvly, and the reason why Cai Xide was silent for several days was not only digging tunnels, but also making final preparations for the assault.
