Chapter 1136: If you want to fight, let the horse come
In a moment, the drums of war were beaten, and Cai Zongkuo saw the war drums of the enemy outside the city sounding, and he also waved his hand for the guards to beat the war drums in response.
Whining...... The sound of the horn sounded from low to high, and the enemy troops immediately rushed to the city gate like a tidal wave, stopping a hundred meters away from the city gate.
A leader in armor sat on the war horse, restrained the progress of the war horse, raised his right hand and immediately made the shouting soldiers stop shouting, the scene of the boom and bang suddenly quieted down, he put down his right hand and shouted towards the city wall: "General Cai, this time the commander is in the emperor's holy order, arrest Lie Yongqin's family and go to the Tiandu City to ask for the guilt, but you keep obstructing what do ......you mean?" Suddenly, an arrow whizzed at him, causing his horse to take a few steps back, and surrounded him by his sidekicks to avoid being killed by the enemy's arrows.
Cai Zongkuo bounced up, grabbed Cai Zongkuo's wrist and shook it: "Zongkuo, are you sure that Zhang Chengshou really wants to start a war in Xiyucheng?" Cai Zongkuo nodded and said: "Dad, this matter is true, the day before yesterday they had sent troops to guard the four city gates, which seemed to be preventing us from letting go of Lie Yongqin's family, and their people seemed to have gone to the monarch to ask for instructions." Just now, when I was patrolling the West City Gate, Zhang Chengshou sent an envoy to persuade us not to disobey the holy decree again, and also set a time limit if we did not respond, they would send troops to attack the city in a moment! Dad, what do you think we should do now?"
Cai Zongkuo hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, I don't understand what you think, do we really want to be closely united with Agni? Not to mention that now that Agnihuo's life and death are unknown, is it necessary for us to support each other out of fear?"
Cai Lianji didn't want to tell his son everything, but in order for them to really grow up, he still taught hard: "Zong Kuo, my father was a little afraid of Agni in the past, so he was a little afraid of Agni, so he was a little humble and wronged with the other party, and then Dad finally found out that Agni Fire is a friend who is really worth making friends. If you think about it, since the other party arrived in Xiyu City, everything he did was unexpected, and the other party's frankness deeply touched me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to let Chen Pinqi follow him with all his heart. Dad once remembered what he said to me, 'You can't be treacherous, you must have the courage to face all the pressure if you choose to stand with me, as long as I don't die, I will be able to protect your Cai family from forever enjoying prosperity!' What I pay attention to is not the promise behind the other party, but the previous sentence that you can't be treacherous, can you understand?"
Cai Zongkuo bowed his head and said respectfully: "Dad, the child knows how to do it, and people who are frank in life and in everything they do, naturally they don't care about the small frictions in the past, we should repay each other equally frankly." Dad, don't worry, this matter is a fight for the child's life, and it will also protect the family of Agni. Then I'll arrange the soldiers first, go all out to defend the safety of the city gate, and take my leave!"
There are also many soldiers lined up in the streets inside the city gate, with infantry, cavalry and chariots prepared, as for the streets and alleys have been curfew by the patrolling soldiers, and unrelated people are not allowed to go to the streets, after all, there will be a big war at any time, and they cannot let the common people be slaughtered by the enemy. Cai Zongkuo took two attendants to the city wall to inspect the patrol situation, and he was also visiting the enemy, he looked at the dense soldiers outside the city, bowed his head and asked the deputy general: "General Wang, the number of people on Zhang Chengshou's side seems to have increased a lot, it seems that they really want to fight a tough battle, are they moving now?"
The enemy is hateful and the ghost is the queen of the ball, and Sun Zaota is troubled
"No! The last general obeyed!" Vice Admiral Wang said and left, and then immediately asked his deputy to convey the promise made by the general soldier.
Cai Zongkuo then shouted: "Zhang Chengshou, you and I are both officials of the same dynasty, if the emperor has an order to come down, why don't you see an edict handed over? If there is no edict, you are falsely preaching the holy decree, who can believe what you say? Not to mention that the people of the Lie family have made meritorious contributions to quelling the chaos in the next time, and the emperor will definitely not take revenge, you don't want to deceive me, if you want to fight, let the horses come, we have no bad seeds in Xiyu City!" Then he raised his right hand, and the soldiers on the city wall immediately shouted loudly.
At the sound of the order, the soldiers immediately shouted: "Rush, kill!" Under the opening of the shield hand, all the staff rushed to the city gate with enthusiasm. The rain of arrows on both sides was flying all over the sky, and the shouts continued one after another, in the case of the shield hand blocking the arrows, the soldiers gradually broke under the city gate, the big wooden stakes and ladders for the siege of the city were carried one after another, and the large wooden stakes carried by dozens of people at the gate kept banging against the gate, and the ladders were placed under the city wall, and the soldiers who climbed climbed to the top of the wall under the cover of the archers.
