"The two of us Jindan monks have gone out, what about the defense in the city?" Wei Yuxiao asked.

Tang Xiao's answer was very direct: "The city has entered a state of first-level combat readiness, if they dare to attack, they will directly move out the big guys to greet them, and they don't have to be stingy with ammunition." ”

Wei Yuxiao raised his concerns: "But there is not much ammunition, can the production line in the rear be supplied to the front line in time?"

"Rest assured, it can support until the reinforcements come. ”

"Reinforcements?" Wei Yuxiao was stunned, it was the first time she had heard that there would be reinforcements, "Where are the reinforcements?"

Tang Xiao smiled faintly: "It's from the south." ”

Wei Yuxiao was not stupid, and quickly guessed the answer: "You mean Qin Guo?

"Not yet, not even a letter has been received. But they will definitely come. ”

"Well, then why are you so sure there will be reinforcements?"

"Because it's almost time. ”

Wei Yuxiao looked confused, but she didn't ask again, she knew that Tang Xiao was so urine, and if she could say that the Qin State would come to support, there would definitely be reinforcements from the Qin State, after all, what Tang Xiao said had never failed.

It didn't take long for the Bag Cat to quietly leave the city with a special force of dozens of people.

This special force is all carefully selected foundation building monks, and then handed over to Pang Ye for special training, any one of them can defeat ten in the same realm.

Wei Yuxiao also followed this special force out of the city, but parted ways halfway.

Tang Xiao stayed in the city and waited for the good news.

In the camp of the Xianglong Army.

Fan Gong looked at the camp that was being built, then looked in the direction of the enemy city, and muttered to himself: "Why haven't these thieves come to attack us?

His adjutant came to his side and asked, "Commander, are we too obvious in an ambush?"

"Is it obvious? I suffered such a loss a few years ago, could they be even worse than I was a few years ago?"

The adjutant was silent.

Fan Gong waited like this, when the clouds hung in the sky and the sun was about to fall, what he was waiting for was not Tang Xiao going out of the city to attack, but news from the rear.

The troops coming from the rear were attacked!

Dozens of people were killed and wounded.

During the pursuit, one of the Jindan monks was seriously injured by a hidden weapon, and finally allowed the enemy to leave unharmed.

Fan Gong was furious: "Are the troops behind all eating dry rice?"

The adjutant asked: "Commander, there are only a few Jindan monks in the enemy army, and they can seriously injure our Jindan monks in the rear, it can be seen that their Jindan monks have left the city, and now the city is bound to be empty, why don't we take the opportunity to attack the enemy city and take revenge?"

Fan Gong looked at the camp tent that was still being built, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Okay! Attack the enemy city! Pass my order, the whole army will stop what they are doing and assemble!"

The horn sounded.

Moments later, the Xianglong army assembled.

Fan Gong mobilized briefly and then waved his army to attack.

The anomaly of the Xianglong Army was detected by the scouts of the Grass Ji Mountain Rebel Army at the first moment.

When the scouts returned, the Grass Thistle Mountain rebels were waiting for the city.

Thirty miles of land is coming in an instant, the Xianglong army is mighty, although this is not the entire Xianglong army, but there are more than 40,000 people, lined up in an array that stretches for several miles, the flags are full of eyes, the sound of armor colliding, and the sound of footsteps on the ground is sonorous and powerful, shocking.

On the top of the city wall, black, large, thick cannon barrels protruded from between the battlements and aimed at the enemy troops below.

Thanks to Xu Shou's efforts, the Grass Thistle Mountain Rebels already have a red-coated cannon, and it is a red-coated cannon of Xiuzhen.

Each cannon requires five foundation building monks to form a magic circle, and they can collectively input spiritual energy in order to fire cannonballs that can fight against Jindan monks.

It's just that the cannon needs to be fixed, so it is only good for defending the city, but because it is inconvenient to move quickly, it lacks flexibility, and it is difficult to achieve the desired results in a frontal attack.

When the Xianglong army came within range of the cannons, a major battle officially broke out.

Rumbling shells whizzed out.

The Xianglong army did not know what it was from any information, but they knew that the rebels had all kinds of firearms, so they did not dare to slack off, and all raised their shields and condensed their defensive shields.

It wasn't until the shells fell and exploded that Fan Gong understood the power of this new type of firearm.

He then sent Brother Jindan to fend off the cannonballs.

Then, he found that even the Jindan monk could hardly resist these shells.

He was stunned.

There are such weapons!

Finally, when the Xianglong army arrived under the city wall and prepared to attack the city, I saw a group of shirtless men lined up in a neat queue on the city wall, each man was painted with inscriptions, and then I saw the group of men dancing very loudly, and a defensive cover appeared on the city wall.

The arrows of the Xianglong Army shot on the defensive cover, clanging, but they couldn't help the defense cover at all.

Moreover, the soldiers of the Xianglong Army became extremely angry, and the Jindan monk among them also had a kind of obsession with resisting the flying cannonballs to the end.

Fan Gong didn't realize that the command of the army was sluggish.

This is the secret method that Tang Xiao captured from the Wang family, although there are drawbacks in it, resulting in this set of secret methods rarely appearing on the battlefield, but at this time, it is just right to deal with the regular army of the Song State.

At this point, the Xianglong Army was menacing, and the Grass Ji Mountain Righteous Army continued to have miraculous skills, and neither side officially gained the upper hand.

The two sides fought for several hours, from dusk to night, but the Xianglong army still could not enter the city.

Fan Gong looked worried, but there was no choice but to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

The Xianglong Army is not like the Xizhou Army under Wei Yuxiao, the Xizhou Army under the command of Wei Yuxiao was dissatisfied with a woman to lead the army, so under the stimulation of the Wang family's secret method, all kinds of negative emotions burst, and the Xianglong Army is a well-known regular army in the Song Dynasty, with strict military discipline, even if the negative emotions are stimulated, but the awe of military discipline also has the upper hand.

Therefore, when the signal to retreat sounded, the Xianglong army retreated like a tide.

Watching the enemy leave, Tang Xiao did not order the pursuit.

Now the Grass Ji Mountain Rebels can only rely on the fort to defend against the enemy's Jindan monks, and they have no ability to pursue and attack at night.

However, this battle completely exposed the reality of the Xianglong Army.

The people of the entire Xizhou gradually understood that the imperial army was a paper tiger, and it was not easy to defeat the Grass Thistle Mountain Righteous Army.

And for the Xianglong Army, another bad news was born without their knowledge.

A businessman found Tang Xiao and handed over a secret letter from the Qin State.

Under the recommendation of Shang Jia, Tang Xiao finally met with the envoy of Qin.

The two sides hit it off at first sight, as if they had met too late, and soon reached a unified opinion.

The Grass Thistle Mountain Rebels received aid from the Qin State.

Not only weapons and grain and grass, but also dozens of Jindan monks as support.

The cost is the sharing of information and the provision of various refining blueprints that Xu has obtained.

Tang Xiao readily agreed.

He watched those Jindan monks of the Qin State enter their military system, and he didn't have the slightest worry about attracting wolves into the room, but instead smiled, like a simple boy.
