Chapter 211: Deliberately let it go

Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses began to launch an attack on Guangxin City.

Although it was an attack, these people had already received news from Liu Zheng, and it was just a feint.

The attack looked ferocious, but there were few soldiers and horses that really reached the city and attacked the city, and most of them were outside the range of the opponent's shooters, waving their flags and shouting.

And Shi Xie didn't realize it at first, he was a little panicked, so he ordered the soldiers and horses on the city tower to quickly organize a defense and defend, but after some of the arrows and city defense facilities were lost, he found that the other party did not really attack the city.

Seeing that Liu Zheng's men and horses did not attack, Shi Xie was a little relieved, but he was helpless, his own strength was insufficient, and he could not go out of the city to face the battle, so he could only temporarily stalemate for a while at this time.

Liu Zheng did not attack, but made Shi Xie more calm.

On Shi Xie's side, as soon as the appointed time arrived, he knew that at the city gate on the other side, his younger brother and son had already begun to break through and fight, which also made Shi Xie feel even more anxious.

He was afraid that Liu Zheng had some conspiracy here, and he was afraid that his younger brother and son would fail to break through and finally suffer misfortune.

But time passed minute by minute, and the soldiers and horses on Liu Zheng's side did not move at all, and after a stalemate with him here, Shi Xie gradually became relieved, but he was still worried about the breakthrough situation on the other side.

As soon as the appointed time arrived, the battle at the south gate officially broke out.

Shiwu took Shixie's son Shihui, as well as more than 1,000 soldiers and horses from the Shijia, and rushed out of the south city gate quickly.

These more than 1,000 people are the disciples raised by their scholars, and their strength is more powerful than the county soldiers in Guangxin City, and it is precisely because of the strength of these horses that the soldiers are confident that they can rush out from the south city gate, surrounded by the same number of enemy troops.

"Shihui, be careful, try to follow your uncle's side, don't stay away, kill with me!"

After Shiwu led more than 1,000 people to rush out of Guangxin City, he immediately commanded the Shihui beside him, and then drew the spear on his horse, and led the way to kill Liu Zheng's side.

Liu Zheng's men and horses are stationed here, and the person in charge of guarding is a newly promoted Qu Chang, who was promoted again and again by virtue of his own strength after the restructuring of Liu Zheng's army, and he has a bit of bravery.

Originally, he led a thousand soldiers and horses to be stationed here at the South City Gate, and he didn't expect that the people in this Guangxin City would come out here to fight him.

After these people suddenly appeared, they were a little surprised, but they didn't panic, and immediately organized their men and began to defend.

1,000 soldiers and horses, 300 archers began to shoot rapidly, cavalry began to form a battle formation, responsible for charging and killing, and those sword and shield men and spearmen quickly surrounded them, trying to surround these enemy troops who rushed out of Guangxin City to prevent them from escaping.

However, on the side of Guangxin City, Shiwu and Shihui are all elites after all, and there is no problem in dealing with Liu Zhengjun, who is only a thousand people.

Besides, they were only responsible for breaking through, not to fight Liu Zhengjun to the death.

In just half an hour, Shi Hui and Shi Wu led people to rush to the outermost part of the team.

Seeing that they were about to escape from here, Shiwu and Shihui were excited, but they also secretly thought in their hearts that the famous anti-thief Yellow Turban Army Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses were not as difficult as rumored.

They broke out of the siege from here so quickly and killed it.

Liu Zhengjun saw that the soldiers and horses rushing out of Guangxin City had already broken through the halfway point, and the soldiers below were still urging the Qu commander, asking if they would send cavalry to pursue.

Qu Chang was the one who had received Liu Zheng's order, and knew that Liu Zheng was going to let them go, so he waved his hand and signaled his subordinates that they didn't have to continue the pursuit, just continue to clean up the mess here and re-besiege the south city gate.

Soon, the news of Shiwu and Shihui's escape from the South City Gate reached Shixie's ears through the heralds.

Shi Xie's heart was finally placed at this time.

"Okay, very good, as long as Shiwu and Shihui can escape from Guangxin City, we don't need to be so scared whether we ask that guy to bring reinforcements or not."

"Even if we didn't stop the attack of these bandits in the end, and the people of the whole city were slaughtered by the bandits, at least we retained some bloodline for our family."

Shi Xie's purpose for letting his son escape from here with Shi Wu is actually the idea of leaving a little blood for the Shi family, after all, it is difficult for them to compete with Liu Zheng's tens of thousands of troops outside the city with these manpower here alone.

In the same way, Liu Zheng at this time also got the news from his herald that someone in Guangxin City broke through and went to Cangwu City for help.

"Are you sure, did some of them escape?"

"Hui Qu Shuai, they broke through from the south city gate, a total of more than 1,000 people were killed by us, more than 600 people, more than 400 people escaped from the south city gate, and the two generals in the lead We deliberately let them go and did not kill them."

"Okay, very good, you did a good job this time, now continue to guard at the south city gate, if there are still people breaking through from the city, it is better to kill half and let half go according to the current method."

"Yes! Yes, sir? ”

The soldier in charge of the herald immediately responded respectfully to Liu Zheng, and then left the big tent and went to the south gate to resume his life.

And since he had already let go of the reinforcements in the city, Liu Zheng had no intention of continuing to pretend and let his men and horses return to the vicinity of the camp. There was no need to continue to pretend to attack, but to stay outside the city of Guangxin.

The two sides were at a stalemate, one side was waiting for reinforcements, and the other side was also waiting for reinforcements, but Liu Zheng was waiting for Shixie's reinforcements.

A day passed quickly.

According to the distance, Liu Zheng can almost guess that the soldiers and horses of the Shi family who went to Cangwu County for help have almost arrived at this time, according to his calculations, at this time, if there are soldiers and horses in Cangwu City to help, then calculate the time, it should be almost there.

"Xu Huang, have the scouts been dispatched? Remember to keep in touch with General Huang Zhong, and be sure to find out before Zhu Fu's guys' reinforcements come here and catch him off guard. ”

Liu Zheng faintly felt something, and said something to Xu Huang.

Xu Huang was very calm.

"Don't worry, Qu Shuai, I'm grasping these things, all the scouts have been dispatched, once there is news, I will tell you as soon as possible."

Just as Liu Zheng and Xu Huang were talking, a war horse rushed over quickly.
