From afar, I heard the sound of killing under the city shaking the sky, and looked carefully into the distance, the people up and down the city tower were surging, and the Shu army in black clothes was climbing up the city tower, and the people on the city tower were constantly slashing and retreating down the ladder.
I can't see my face clearly, I only see the black dots moving, and I can judge who is who according to the color of the costume.
Runzhou City has not yet been breached, and Hong Tianxi breathes a sigh of relief.
He let the army be stationed on the spot, and he hurriedly went to the outside of Runzhou City to ask for King Teng.
King Teng was relieved when he heard that Hong Tianxi had arrived.
He has been attacking for three days, and more than half of the 30,000 soldiers have been lost, but Runzhou is still not moving.
As soon as Hong Tianxi entered the tent, everyone in the tent looked over, and King Teng stood up to greet him personally, "The general has worked hard, and the affairs of Qingzhou are well organized, all thanks to the general's arrangement." ”
"The prince's reputation is overdue, and it is all the credit of the concerted efforts of the whole army. Hong Tianxi said humbly.
Mr. Xi was very dissatisfied with the proposal of the strategist to drive the people to seize the city just now, and when he saw Hong Tianxi coming in, he said the words of the strategist, "General Hong, Runzhou has not been able to attack for a long time, and the prince is anxious. If the imperial reinforcements arrive and hold on to the city, it will be difficult for us to go straight to the capital. ”
Runzhou is the gateway to the capital, as long as they occupy Runzhou, their family can attack and retreat and defend, and there is not much obstacle to go all the way north to the capital.
When Hong Tianxi heard the advice of the strategist, his face turned red with anger, and he glared at the man fiercely, "You actually came up with this method, I'm sorry! Your sage books have all been read to the dog's belly? Unkind and unjust, unworthy of being a human being!"
The strategist had just thrown himself into King Teng's account, and he wanted to make a splash, but he was scolded by Hong Tianxi in public, and looked at King Teng aggrievedly.
King Teng didn't look at him, and looked at Hong Tianxi in agreement, "The general is here, everything here is up to the general's dispatch." ”
"Who is guarding the city now?"
Qi Shishi showed up, but Fu Yuande was nowhere to be seen, and I don't know what other generals there were. There were only 1,000 defenders in Runzhou City, and I don't know where they got them. ”
Mr. Xi explained on the side.
In fact, the battle report from the front came that there were not many defenders on the city tower, and many people wearing people's clothes were defending the city together. Moreover, these people are not afraid of death, and they have no sense of cowering when they are forced to defend the city.
Some people saw the soldiers of the Shu army killing the city tower, and when they heard that they were chasing and killing all the way from Qingzhou, their eyes were red and they rushed up, which was completely desperate.
King Teng couldn't believe that Fu Yuande was able to mobilize the people in the city?
The Shu army didn't believe it, so they didn't dare to say that these people were the people, but only that they came out of nowhere.
Hong Tianxi also didn't believe that Fu Yuande could say that he could move the people to defend the city, he thought for a while, "Lord Wang, why don't you suspend the siege of the city first and check it later?"
"Okay, everything is arranged by the general. King Teng hurriedly asked Hong Tianxi to command.
After Hong Tianxi agreed, he ordered a suspension of the siege.
The Shu army attacked almost endlessly for three days, and when it stopped, the towers of Runzhou City were puzzled.
Could it be that the Shu army has any new arrangements?
"It doesn't matter what they want to do, it's a kill anyway. Zhao Quansheng raised his sleeves and wiped his face, and said nonchalantly.
His face was mixed with blood and sweat, and his sleeves were also blood-cement ash, this wipe, his face was not wiped clean, but it became red, red and black, lined with his scar, which was even more terrifying.
A few people on the side echoed loudly, "That's it, we just took a breath." When they come back, we'll cut them one by one. ”
These people were originally the people of the city, and after three days of killing, the fear and cringe they had when they first went up to the city tower were gone. Now he is like a battle-hardened veteran.
After a few days of fighting, the first day was also replaced, and now the manpower is damaged, and there are not many people to replace. These people have been killed since yesterday, and as soon as they stopped, they felt tired, or sat or lay on the ground to rest, grabbed the water bag and drank water indiscriminately.
Yudong stood on the city tower, wearing a temporarily changed armor, and the little youthful childishness that he had before was gone.
He stood here, his face calm and resolute, quite the style of a general.
After defending the city for three days, the soldiers were damaged, the generals were also damaged, Captain Lu was seriously injured, and Qi Shire retreated and led the troops to guard the city tower on the other side. The south gate is guarded by Yudong.
"Report to the uncle, a team of people from the Shu army has come out. One of the soldiers in charge of the lookout shouted.
Yudong is not a general in the army, but everyone is convinced of him, he should have been a report general, but he was stunned to change to the nondescript title of report uncle.
It's just that everyone has been calling it like this for the past few days, and no one thinks it's weird, but it feels quite kind.
When Yudong heard that the Shu army was coming, he also walked to the battlements and leaned over to check.
In the Shu army, more than a dozen people crossed the Shu army formation and rode to the city tower.
Yudong saw that he was the first person, with black armor and white hair.
"Uncle, it's an old man. The Shu army actually sent an old man, is it going to persuade him to surrender again?" the sharp-eyed soldier said curiously when he saw the group of people.
Yudong looked at the group of people, and there were soldiers on the side carrying a flag, and the word "Hong" was written on the flag.
In the Shu army, there is only one general surnamed Hong, Hong Tianxi.
Yudong looked at the figure pinching the hand of the city wall, pinching the wall tiles with both hands, the green tendons on the back of his hand appeared, his lips sobbed, and he bit hard, for fear that he would call out.
Hong Tianxi led people to the city tower two miles down, looked at the city tower, there were a few people upstairs looking at him, one of the leaders looked lean, and the figure looked like a teenager.
Could it be that Zhou Ming is here?
Hong Tianxi raised this thought, faintly hoping that Zhou Ming would really arrive, but after a closer look, the face was not Zhou Ming, and seeing the person looking at him excitedly, Hong Tianxi's heart was shocked.
Yudong!
It turned out to be Dong'er!
His hand gripping the horse's reins tightened, and he bit his lower lip for fear that he would call someone before the battle.
He can't let people know that Yudong is his apprentice, and let him have a relationship with the thief, doesn't it hurt him?
The armor that Yudong was wearing was a little too big. Hong Tianxi regretted a little, he knew that he should have made a suit of armor for Yudong at the beginning, which was much more fitting than this one, and it was more able to protect the body.
Yudong stood there, calm as a mountain, and he had long since lost his youthful appearance. And the soldiers behind him are obviously the ones who lead the army.
In the past three days, King Teng failed to attack Runzhou one step, and it turned out that Yudong led people to defend the city!
Hong Tianxi only felt relieved and proud in his heart, there is such a disciple, shouldn't he, the master, drink three cups to celebrate?
He nodded slightly towards the city tower, and didn't care if Yudong could see it or not.
Yudong saw the person in the city clearly, although his face was haggard and a little older, but there was no doubt that it was Hong Tianxi.
After years of not seeing each other, when they saw each other again, the master and apprentice were already opponents.
