On the other side, Huan Zang led more than 5,000 soldiers to rush all the way, and finally killed outside Yun County in the afternoon.

Yun County originally had 1,000 soldiers, but after the outbreak of the war, 500 people were transferred away by Zhao Ping, so because of the lack of troops in the county, they had to recruit people to transport grain and escort them with a tun of soldiers.

So that at this time, the Chu army was pressing, but there were only more than 400 people in the city to defend, if it was just to deter the Chu people in the city, it would be barely enough. However, at this moment, the Chu army was pressing, and the Qin people on the city wall were all trembling, and their faces were bloodless.

"The Chu people are killed, and what can they do about it?" On the city wall, the county commander looked at the Chu army outside the city who was preparing to attack the city, and asked the county lieutenant with a trembling voice.

The county lieutenant swallowed his saliva: "We will hold on to the city, if the people in the city do not rebel, they can still hold on and wait for help, please ask the county guard to send reinforcements from Yunguan." If it's in the city..."

The rest of the words of the county lieutenant did not exist, but the county order already understood.

The county commander glanced back at the city, and then sighed for a long time, how long has the Qin State occupied Shangyong, and the people in the city are all focused on the Chu State, at this time, if you want the people in the city to be the people of the Qin State with peace of mind, how is this possible.

Just when the county commander and the county lieutenant were sighing on the city wall, Huan Zang outside the city was ready.

Huan Zang Jianfeng pointed at Yunxian: "Beat the drum, attack the city!" ”

Then, accompanied by the sound of war drums, the Chu army in front immediately took a ladder to kill Yunxian under the drive of the generals.

On the city wall, the county lieutenant saw the Chu army coming, and shouted without showing weakness: "Kill the enemy!" ”

It's just that the two hundred soldiers are scattered on the city wall of more than 15 zhang, and most of the soldiers did not hear the shouts of the county lieutenant, and they responded, but it seemed that the Qin army was extremely weak.

At the same time, the Chu people in the city heard the sound of war drums and listened attentively.

Although most of the people in the city don't know who is attacking the city at this time, but in the mediocre land, you don't need to think about it to know that the people who are attacking the city must be the Chu people.

Thinking of this, many Chu people cautiously peeked out of the door.

At this time, the wealthy households of Chu State, who had already received the news, were overjoyed when they heard the sound of war drums.

The Chu army came back.

Then, the sound of fighting was heard from the north of the city, indicating that the Chu army had attacked the city.

At this point, the rich man of the city did not wait any longer, and immediately went out with his servants.

At this time, the Qin soldiers patrolling the streets had all been pulled to the city wall to defend.

When the Chu people came out of their homes and saw that there was no one to defend on the street, someone immediately shouted: "Go to the north gate and welcome the Chu army into the city." ”

Soon, more than 200 Ding Zhuang from six or seven wealthy families coincidentally killed at the north gate.

At this time, everyone saw that there were only more than 20 Qin soldiers defending the opening of the north gate, and their morale was immediately boosted.

"Kill!"

On the city wall, at this time, the county commander and the county lieutenant listened to the shouts of the people in the city, and they all showed despair.

Then the two looked at each other, nodded, and turned around and left.

After the county commander took the lead in fleeing, the Qin army on the city wall saw this and no longer resisted, and fled one after another.

Outside the city, Huan Zang saw that the city had been broken, and looked at the sky, but saw that the sun had begun to go west, and at this time led the army to kill outside Yunguan, and it was too late today.

"The days are always shorter in winter." Huan Zang sighed lightly, and then ordered: "Order, five hundred forwards will enter the city, and the others will immediately rest outside the city." ”

With that, he led the army to Yunxian.

Then Huan Zang drove straight in with the commander of the Chu army, and killed all the way to the county mansion unimpeded.

Not long after Huan Zang entered the mansion, a soldier came to report:

"Report, general, our army has taken control of the county treasury."

"General, our army has taken control of the four gates."

"General, our army has cleared the Qin people in the city."

Soon, news came from all over the city, and Yun County returned to the hands of Chu again.

Then, when the city stabilized a little, Huan Zang immediately ordered:

"Order, immediately conscript the people, all the people in the city are organized into the army, all those over twenty years old and under forty years old are assigned to the army, and all others over the age of fourteen are arranged to defend the city."

"No!"

"Order, open the arsenal, issue weapons to the people."

"No."

"Order, immediately send someone to Yunguan to inform Zhuguo, that Yunxian has been lowered, and tomorrow Japan will attack the rear of the Qin army from behind Yunguan."

"No."

"Send an order, let the Chu people in the city who responded to our army come to see the general."

"No!"

After a while, the seven Chu people who had just responded to the incident quickly came to the Huan Zang chariot and said in unison: "Meet the general." ”

"Excuse me!" Huan Zang nodded, and then looked at everyone: "Your state affairs are difficult, and now that the Zhu Kingdom is still outside Yunguan, I would like to do my best to take the Ding Zhuang in the city to meet the Zhu Kingdom into the upper realm." It's just that when I first came here, I was not familiar with the affairs of Yun County, so I asked you to help me and appease the people in the city a little. After the matter is completed, I will ask for credit for you in the next pillar country. ”

The seven of them were overjoyed and said in unison: "I am willing to serve the general." ”

"Good!"

Just when Yunxian was nervously enlisting the people into the army, a messenger came from the west, and then came to Huan Zang to report: "General Huan, under the order of the Yong Assassin History, I have come to inform the general that the Chu people in Changli County rioted, and now the Chu people in the city have expelled the Qin people.

The assassin said that he had recruited the people in Changli County, and he would lead Ding Zhuang in the city to Yunguan tomorrow, and he asked the general to rest assured. ”

"Good!" Huan Zang was overjoyed.

The five counties of Shangyong in the west of Yunguan, Changli County of Yun County are located in the north, and the three counties of Shangyong and Wuling in Fang County are all in the south. Now that the two northern counties have all been recovered by the Chu State, it can be said that the battle of Shangyong has been half successful, as long as Yunguan is conquered tomorrow, and the army of Chu State has all entered Shangyong, then the overall situation of the battle of Shangyong has been decided.

Thinking about it, Huan Zang responded with a smile: "Okay, if Your Excellency Lao recovers the history of assassination, it means that Japan will go to Yunguan first, and please ask the history of assassination to be the general's backup." ”

"No." The messenger departed.

Then, Huan Zang instructed again: "Come on, quickly inform Zhu Guo that Changli has been restored." ”

At this time, in Yunguan, Song Mo did not react at all to the tragic offensive and defensive battle in Yunguan, but just stared at the Yunxian messenger in front of him, and said angrily in horror: "How is this possible, there are 1,000 troops defending the Qishan Trail, how can the Chu army suddenly defend our army and suddenly kill outside the transportation limit." ”

The messenger shook his head and said: "General, the defense line of our army in Qishan must have been broken, and more than 5,000 people of the Chu army suddenly killed Yun County from the north, and then the people of Yun County rebelled, and the city was suddenly lost. ”

"This... This..." Hearing this, Song Mo took a few steps back, and then said in disbelief: "How is this possible." ”

As he spoke, he remembered the army that intercepted the Chu Army's water division, and his face changed: "It's not good, it's a plan, Zhao Ju didn't plan to attack Shangyong from the waterway at all, his goal from beginning to end was Yunguan." ”

Then, Song Mo's body softened slightly, and after barely standing still, he said in a hurry: "Now that all the soldiers in each county are intercepting the Chu army in the southern waterway, even if our army has defeated the Chu army now, send a messenger to ask for help at this time, and then wait for the army to arrive, this time and again, I'm afraid it will take two days at the earliest." If the army is encircling and suppressing the bandits of Shangyong at this time, wait for the news to be delivered, the army will gather, and then rush to Shangyong..."

As he spoke, Song Mo's face was bloodless.

"No, it's too late, tomorrow the Chu army will inevitably storm Yunguan. Moreover, the Chu army that has now killed Yunxian has not reached Yunguan for a long time, thinking that they must be recruiting the people in the city. There are nearly 3,000 households in the county seat of Yunxian, and one household is 3,000 people, so the Chu army that will be killed outside Yunguan tomorrow will exceed 8,000.

In this way, how long can I hold out in Yunguan. ”

Just when Song Mo was hesitating, another messenger ran over: "Report to the general, the Chu people in Changli County have rioted, our army is defeated, and Changli County has been lost." ”

"What?" Song Mo was terrified: "This... This... There is also Wuling Shangyongfang County, these three places..."

Saying that, Song Mo immediately made up his mind: "No, this Yunguan can't stay!" ”
