Under the moonlight, a team of soldiers lined up under the east gate of Zhangzhou, and there were two or three thousand people in the dark.

In the rear, the two huge cloud beam chariots are intimidating, each cloud chariot can board hundreds of archers, Zhangzhou city is not high, the cloud chariot can be condescending to suppress the fire.

There is no moat in Zhangzhou, but it is surrounded by the Zhangshui River in the west and south, and there are mostly hills in the north.

And the team from Quanzhou to attack the city, there is only one option for the east city gate.

Chen Hongjin looked at the closed city gate and the soldiers who were already waiting on the city wall, but he couldn't hear the shouts of killing in the city.

Chen Hongjin is the commander of the Qingyuan Army, the first commander of the army under the command of King Liuxiao of Jinjiang, and the most trusted confidant of King Jinjiang.

In this attack on Zhangzhou, Chen Hongjin wanted to march in together, and there was an internal response in the city, so Zhangzhou City should be at his fingertips.

But I didn't want to, early, hundreds of miles away, the scouts sent by myself encountered the other party's scouts.

Chen Hongjin immediately made a decision, and ordered his fierce general Li Hong to lead the cavalry to advance at full speed, and today the guards and captains of the Dongcheng City Gate have already received information, and when they see the soldiers and horses of Quanzhou, they will open the city, and the sound of killing will start, and there should be trouble in the city, if Li Hong can directly catch the Donghai Gong Lu Ning, it would be better, and if he was blocked for a while, he would retreat, and he only needed to hold the Dongcheng gate and wait for the brigade to come to help, but he didn't want to, as if the two goals had not been achieved.

Chen Hongjin whispered a few words in the ear of an adjutant general beside him.

The lieutenant came out of the horse, came to the city gate, and shouted, "Can the prince of the East China Sea be here?" ”

Standing in the city tower, Lu Ning also looked at the rows of foot soldiers under the moonlight, they did not raise the banner of the Qingyuan army, obviously, this attack on the city had already thought of a rhetoric.

"My grandfather is here! Where are you? Is it a soldier of the Han Kingdom?! Lu Ning shouted loudly.

The lieutenant general shouted coldly: "My brigade commander is Chen Hongjin, the commander of the Qingyuan Army, but he was coerced by us, and the East China Sea Duke is extravagant, and there is no distinction between wives and concubines, and he is completely lost!" Frame up and depose loyal officials! The anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people has aroused the anger of the military and the people of Quanzhang! How can the sun and the moon be allowed to come? We, the pawns, are here for the way of heaven, and persuade the public to leave Zhangzhou as soon as possible, and don't let us pawns be charged with rebellion! ”

Listening to the general's righteous words and count his own crimes, Lu Ning felt a sigh in his heart, the old routine.

From the end of the Tang Dynasty to the present day, the five dynasties and ten kingdoms have been like this, and the powerful factions have made rebellion, and the so-called "rebels" have killed or driven away the officials appointed by the imperial court.

This King of Jinjiang stayed in effect, and he was indeed decisive, seeing that the situation was not good, he directly made a killing move.

However, he stayed to follow his brother's example, saying that he was sick and resigned from the Zhangzhou Assassin History to test the Tang Lord, and now that the results are out, the Tang Lord sent someone to take over, and he has long wanted to really get the ruling power of the land of Quanzhang.

The excuse used to stay in effect but send the town soldiers to drive him away has been used by countless feudal towns that support the army and respect themselves, so they naturally found a new backer.

Historically, after the Southern Tang Dynasty was defeated by Zhou and lost the land of Jiangbei, he continued to pay tribute to Zhou.

But looking at it now, the new backer who stayed in effect was naturally not the Zhou State, and the Southern Han Dynasty was weak, so most of its backer was Wu Yueguo.

Therefore, he blatantly wanted to drive away or even kill himself, the county prince of Tang.

Looking at its military horses, I am afraid that the elite is exhausted, this is left to be effective, although it is trying its best to maintain armaments, but the population of Quanzhang is limited, and the number of town troops who remain effective is only 5,000, and now, I am afraid that more than half of them have been sent.

Chen Hongjin, the brigade commander who led the team, seems to be the last feudal town of the Qingyuan Army, after the death of the Liu's brothers, the son of Liu's follower was young and was taken by this Chen Hongjin.

Therefore, in this era of warlord separation, loyalty and so on are all relative, and now Chen Hongjin is loyal to Liucong or not? That is definitely loyal, without the slightest second heart, but if you want Chen Hongjin to continue to be loyal to your young son, it will be extremely difficult.

"Duke of Donghai, go back to your Donghai, you can protect the glory and wealth, our soldiers and civilians have written to the Holy Son of Heaven to plead their grievances, and implore the Duke of Donghai to return to the domain!"

The lieutenant general downstairs shouted loudly.

"I implore the Duke of the East China Sea to return to the domain!"

"I implore the Duke of the East China Sea to return to the domain!"

"I implore the Duke of the East China Sea to return to the domain!"

The mountains shouted like a tsunami, and all the Quanzhou soldiers shouted in unison.

At night, there are countless startled birds.

"What if I don't come back!" Lu Ning said lightly, but the voice spread all over the wilderness.

"Then I can only admonish each other with my life!" The lieutenant waved his hand.

Immediately, the horn sounded, and a column of soldiers carrying cloud ladders slowly moved forward, and the two cloud carts behind the battle formation were also slowly pushed.

In the city, there was still no shouting and killing, Chen Hongjin frowned slightly, what happened?

I don't believe it, Li Hong's cavalry and the inner response in the city, even if they didn't enter the Donghai Mansion, they could always do it by retreating to the north city gate, right? Even if the north gate can't be guarded, the defeated soldiers themselves can always see it, and they can't be killed all the people left, right?

Take another 10,000 steps back, although he feels that this is a must-win game, but Li Hong is cautious, and there must be sentry scouts outside the city, in case of any changes, he can report back to himself, these sentry agents? And where did it go?

"Donghai Gong, don't force me to wait for a pawn!" Under the city gate, the deputy shouted hoarsely.

On the castle tower, a horn suddenly sounded, and immediately, from the battlements, Han Sensen's weapons poked out, and there were clusters of arrows with bows and arrows, reflecting the terrible light in the moonlight.

Donghai Gong, but he was silent, obviously, he didn't bother to say anything, and he didn't have the leisure to reprimand the hypocrisy of King Jinjiang, if you want to fight, then fight!

The adjutant general looked back in the direction of Chen Hongjin, Chen Hongjin gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Siege!" ”

The soldiers behind him immediately waved the command flag, and the horn sounded again.

"Kill!"

A cloud ladder arrived at the head of Zhangzhou City, and the cloud car reached a hundred steps away from Zhangzhou City, and the archers climbed up one after another.

From the head of Zhangzhou City, suddenly black stones fell one after another, and some soldiers were smashed, crying out in pain.

Soon the city soldiers discovered that this was not a falling rock, but a black iron bump.

The adjutant picked one up, held it in his hands and ran in front of Chen Hongjin.

Chen Hongjin frowned slightly, but saw that the iron pimple was round, but he left a mouth, and when he looked into it, he couldn't see anything in the dark.

What kind of mess, Chen Hongjin threw it aside and used iron as a falling stone? This East China Sea is sick, right? It's not very big, what's the damage?

"Kill!" The Quanzhou soldiers holding shields have begun to climb the cloud ladder, and the archers on the cloud chariot have also bent their bows, and the arrow rain falls on the head of Zhangzhou City.

On the battlements, a wooden shield was immediately erected, and from the gap in the shield, there were knives and spears and other objects, poking at the Quanzhou soldiers who climbed to the top of the ladder.

The shouts of killing were loud.

And the archers on the cloud car, after a few rounds of arrow rain, they stopped, this kind of fire suppression is against the opponent's archers, but their own siege, the other party did not use the archers to harass, their own erection of ladders, etc., are extremely smooth, now the two sides have been engaged in the battlements, and even began to have their own soldiers on the city wall, and then shoot arrows, which is equivalent to an indiscriminate attack.

At the head of the city, more and more Quanzhou soldiers went up, next to the cloud ladder under the city, the soldiers were also dense, and even the top of the head no longer used a shield to block, all bravely squeezed to the cloud ladder, seeing that the city of Zhangzhou was broken in front of them, everyone fought for merit, and they all wanted to be the pawn of the merit of climbing the city and killing the East China Sea Gongqin army.

Chen Hongjin shook his head, thinking that he could fight without blood, but he didn't want to, Donghai Gong's pro-army was extremely tenacious.

Also, the barbarians from the Han realm were defeated by their own troops in a short period of time, and it seems that these soldiers cannot be underestimated.

However, the barbarians were originally a rabble, and they brought them all the elite of the Qingyuan army, and the king of Jinjiang had swept away the initial contempt for the Duke of the East China Sea, but went to the other extreme, and today he actually wanted to personally lead the army and allocate 3,000 elite soldiers to ensure that nothing went wrong.

It seems that this war, which cannot be called a war, will soon be over.

However, where did Li Hong run away with the cavalry?

Chen Hongjin frowned slightly.
