Chapter 436: Internal Response

"Okay." Xiong Huai laughed and walked out of the car, and then helped Jing Cui up and said: "The pillar country is worthy of being the pillar of the country. ”

Then, Xiong Huaiyou groaned: "However, Shuyun: for the nine mountains and nine thousands, the success is short. Right now, this Xue Cheng is the last handful of soil in this battle, and the Pillar Kingdom still needs to help the widow again. ”

Jing Cui responded: "I am willing to drive for the king." ”

Subsequently, Xiong Huai Jingcui came to the coalition army together, and Jingcui immediately ordered: "Order, the army will set up a siege formation, and the whole army will go outside Xue City." ”

"No."

After a short time, 200,000 allied troops put on a formation and marched towards Xue Cheng.

When they arrived at the edge of Xue Cheng, after the army stopped, Jing Cui ordered: "Order, beat the drum." ”

"No."

With "Knock Knock..." The sound of war drums sounded, and for a while, all other sounds were suppressed by the sound of drums, as if only drums were left in heaven and earth.

This delusion is not only in the coalition forces outside the city, but even in Xue Cheng.

After a drum, Jing Cui waved his hand, and the sound of war drums stopped, and then, Jing Cui pulled out his sword, pointed in the direction of Xue Cheng, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

After Jing Cui spoke, the surrounding guards immediately followed and shouted, "Kill." ”

Then, the soldiers in front reacted and yelled.

After the Chu army, the soldiers of the Song army followed, and for a time, more than 200,000 people shouted at Xue Cheng.

On the other side, when Tian Wen and Zhai Zhang learned that the Chu and Song armies had arrived outside Xue City, they immediately rushed to the east to watch.

As soon as I arrived at the city wall, I found that the coalition army was slowly approaching Xuecheng, and as far as the eye could see, it was densely packed with Chu and Song coalition forces, which continued to the end of the line of sight, and I couldn't count how many people there were.

When the Chu Song army stopped outside Xue City, a heavy pressure suddenly rushed towards them.

Before he could take a breath, then, the sound of war drums sounded outside the city, although the Chu and Song coalition forces did not attack the city with the sound of war drums, but the heavy sound of war drums seemed to hit Tian Wen's heart, making him tremble and tremble.

The sound of war drums fell, and then there was a shout of killing outside the city, some small to large, from far to near, gradually, it seemed that the surroundings were full of shouting and killing.

Although the Chu-Song coalition army still did not attack, Tian Wen was still sweating nervously.

Tian Wen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then saw that the soldiers and people around him all showed fear, and immediately ordered: "Send an order, transfer all the 10,000 Qi troops in the city who have been resting for a few days to the east to prevent the Chu and Song coalition forces from attacking the city." Orders were given to the other three walls to be on guard against enemy raids. ”

"No."

Soon after the order was issued, as the Qi troops in the city continued to pour onto the city wall, Tian Wen felt a little safer.

However, as the army was transferred to the city walls, there were not enough troops to patrol the city, and the rumors in the city immediately spread at an extremely fast speed.

"The Chu and Song coalition forces broke through the 150,000 Qi army, the Qi army was annihilated, and the Qi general Tian Jia was captured."

"The Wei reinforcements have withdrawn from the Song State."

"General Qi Shengzi has stopped attacking Tengdi."

"The 100,000 Chu and Song coalition troops are preparing to attack the Lu State."

"Xue Gongtian Wen plans to run away."

"Xue Cheng is finished..."

Before dark, pessimism spread throughout the city.

At this time, at the southern city wall, Ren Shan, a spy from the Chu State, was asking Gou Dai: "Brother Gou, how are you preparing over there." ”

Gou said smugly: "Don't worry, I have already contacted some people who are dissatisfied with Tian Wen, plus some brothers from the past, a total of more than a hundred people." ”

"Okay." Ren Shan nodded and said: "In this way, plus more than 30 people in the hands of the subordinates, it will definitely be enough to seize the city gate while the Qi army is not taken." ”

Gou nodded a little, and then asked heavily: "Brother Ren, can you really contact Xue Jun outside the city." ”

Ren Shan said as a matter of course: "Naturally, I think back then, my ancestors were Xue Jun's guards for three generations, although Xue Jun went to Chu State, but our contact is still there." ”

Saying that, Ren Shan patted Gou Dai's shoulder, and said confidently: "Brother Gou, don't worry, tonight our people will transfer the Qi army in the south, and when the time comes, the number of Qi troops left behind in the city gate will be very small, and with our manpower, we will definitely be able to seize the city gate to welcome Xue Jun into the city." ”

Gou Dai nodded firmly when he heard this.

Night.

Not long after Xiong Huai returned to Chuying, Chen Zhen walked quickly to the front: "King, the spies in the city have sent a message, they are going to open the south gate of Xue City on the third watch tonight, and please take the opportunity to enter the city at that time." ”

Xiong Huai was stunned, although he asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”

Chen Zhen nodded.

Xiong Huai took a deep breath, and then showed a look of great joy.

As for whether it was the possibility of Tian Wen's conspiracy, Chen Zhen did not mention it, and Xiong Huai did not ask.

Now in this situation, Xue Cheng is already powerless, even if Tian Wen has ideas, Xue Cheng has no strength.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai immediately spoke: "Please come over Zhuguo." ”

"No."

Xue Chengzhong.

At the time of the third watch, in the dead of night, near the south gate, a shout suddenly came: "There is a fire, put out the fire quickly." ”

The sound came out, and it immediately woke up the guards guarding the south gate.

Then I looked in the direction where the sound came from, and sure enough, a house was already on fire.

Chen Tong, who was on duty at the south gate, immediately took Cai Qiong and ten soldiers to the city gate guard, and said hurriedly: "Captain Zheng, if there is a fire in the city for no reason, there must be fraud, and you need to be careful and vigilant." ”

As he spoke, Chen Tong quickly walked to the side of Captain Zheng Jie.

Zheng Jie was stunned, walked to the inner side of the city wall with his personal guards, looked at the place where the fire started, and saw that many people were already fighting the fire, and said worriedly: "Mr. Chen, I am also very worried about the fire, the fire is very close to the south gate, and I will be worried that this is the city's plan to seize the city gate." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation.

"It's on fire."

"It's on fire again."

Zheng Jie was stunned for a moment, and then looked into the city, only to see that there were fires in many places in the city.

Chen Tong frowned and said: "There are so many fires in the city, it must be carefully prepared to incite the people to rebel, so that the Chu and Song coalition forces can take the opportunity to seize the city." ”

"Not good." Chen Tong suddenly shouted, and hurriedly spoke: "Captain Zheng, at this time, the Chu and Song coalition forces outside the city must be preparing to attack the city?" ”

"What?" Zheng Jie was startled and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the outside of the city wall.

As soon as the left foot stepped out, he heard the sound of "Zheng", and then he had a sharp pain in his chest and back, and he saw a sword tip emerging from his left chest, and when he turned his head, he found that the person who stabbed the sword was actually Meng Weijun's first-class guest, Chen Tong, who had just communicated with him.

"You're a spy..."

Listening to Zheng Jie's weak voice of resentment, and seeing that the soldiers he brought had already attacked Zheng Jie's personal guards, Chen Tong smiled coldly, kicked Zheng Jie away, and said, "No, I am indeed a spy." ”

After killing the guards at the city gate and quickly killing all the guards, before the other Qi soldiers could react, Chen Tong said to Cai Qiong beside him: "Send a signal, open the city gate, and welcome the coalition army into the city." ”

"No."
