It's night

Yan Kui led the Jin army to attack the southern gate of Jun County at night, and the defenders of the southern city of the Zhou army in Jun County did not notice it for a while, and almost made a mistake, but fortunately, Lu Ba, who was sitting in the county, reacted in time and sent his eldest son Lu Fanglian to lead the Chinese army of 3,000 to support.

After a scuffle, they barely supported the Jin army's offensive, but before they could take a breath, they heard a sudden chaos at the city gate.

Let's report that someone is storming the city gate!

As soon as he heard this, Lu Fanglian, who was not very bold, almost carried it in one breath, and the generals and guards next to him came over and patted him on the back for a long time before he came back to his senses.

took the water bag handed over by the guard, Lu Fanglian poured a mouthful of cold water, and the cold water went down the esophagus, and he was full of excitement and his brain was much clearer.

"From what is the situation at the city gate now, how many people are on the other side, can you see where it came from?"

The person who came was directly asked if he was stupid, and he also heard something and hurried over to report it, the specific situation was really unclear, kowtowed, and told the truth about it.

Lu Fanglian didn't make it difficult for him, waved his hand to let him go down, and then found the generals who came to Nancheng to support him this time, and asked him to take five hundred people to the city gate to see the situation, and to guard the city gate no matter what.

The generals did not dare to slack off, and left in a hurry after receiving the order, and at this time, the Jin army outside the city launched a new round of onslaught.

The Nancheng guard ran over a little embarrassed: "Major General, this time it is Yan Kui's white-robed army that came up." ”

…………

Hearing the three words of the white-robed army, Lu Fanglian's face suddenly became a little ugly.

Before Yan Kui, Tang Xiang and others led the army to attack, Lu Ba held that the Zhou army in the city was more general, and he did not take the Jin army outside the city in his eyes.

And afterwards, as Lu Ba thought, the Jin army suffered heavy losses in the first siege and could not achieve an inch, and the county seat of Junxian County was solid and there was no worry about falling.

At that time, this situation made the generals of the Zhou army in the city who had always been concerned greatly relieved.

After all, Yan Kui is not covered, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, he can defeat Xue Yang's 50,000 army, then the 50,000 trapped soldiers in their Jun County may not be able to stop him, Lu Ba is brave, they are empty-minded.

Later, when they saw that the Jin army was frustrated, they relaxed slightly, thinking that although Yan Kui was brave, his troops were shallow, and although the county seat of Junxian was frightened, there was no major danger.

However, what no one expected was that soon, Yan Kui slapped General Zhou Junzhong with a loud mouth.

When the Jin army attacked Jun County for the second time, Yan Kui personally led thousands of white-robed troops into battle, these white-robed troops attacked rapidly, well-trained, and good at tackling tough battles.

If it weren't for Lu Ba's personal encouragement and encouragement to resist bravely, I am afraid that the Zhou army could be directly defeated by the white-robed army of less than 2,000 at that time.

After that, the Jin army tasted the sweetness, and repeatedly sent the white-robed army to attack the county, although under the deliberate defense of the Zhou army, the white-robed army never achieved such a big result as the first appearance of the siege, but also let the Zhou army suffer a lot of losses.

This time, when I heard that the white-robed army was coming to attack the city again, above the city tower, up to the main general Lu Fanglian, down to the ordinary soldiers under his command, his face showed a complicated expression.

The most common of these is fear............

…………

However, no matter how afraid he was, he couldn't watch the Jin army outside the city come in, Lu Fanglian was silent for a while, and ordered his guards to go to the city for help, and he took the soldiers to the back of the female wall, ready to command the soldiers to defend the city.

At this time, Lu Fang even sent the people who had just sent to the city gate to support them also came back to report the news, saying that there were only more than 200 people attacking the city gate, and the generals below had already arrived with 500 reinforcements, and they should soon control the main situation.

Knowing that there were not many people storming the city gate, Lu Fanglian finally relaxed and gradually put the matter behind.

It's no wonder that Lu Fanglian didn't pay attention to it, in fact, during this period of time, the Jin army attacked the city, and the Zhou army encountered several incidents of people in the city attacking the city gate, most of which were spontaneously organized by large households and people in the city, and the number of people varied, and the largest one was nearly a thousand people.

It's just that these people are a group of rabble, with weak combat power, and they will soon be bloodily suppressed by the Zhou army.

Afterwards, although Lu Ba took advantage of this incident to massacre in Jun County, he still did not stop the matter.

There is no way, the Zhou army oppressed the people in Junxian County too much, especially recently, because of the shortage of military food, Lu Ba ordered to collect military food in the city.

It is said to be a solicitation, but in fact it is no different from looting.

Originally, the last time the Zhou army requisitioned grain on a large scale in the Beiling area, it had already tossed the grain storage of the people of Jun County, and the people only had a little ration left in their hands.

Now the Zhou army has requisitioned grain for the second time, and it has taken away the last subsistence food in the hands of the common people.

Now there is a war outside, the Zhou army is strong and clear, Jun County has no grain and no business, all industries are withering, and seizing rations is simply forcing the people to death.

It is precisely because of this helplessness that the people in the city will spontaneously storm the city gate and respond to the Jin army outside the city.

It's not that they sacrifice their lives to love the country and miss their homeland, but only by welcoming the Jin army can they get grain and grass to help the people.

Desperate, it's just a way to survive............

…………

The difficulties of the people of Jun County, Lu Ba's father and son are not unaware, if possible, they don't want to push the people too hard, so that the people's hearts are pushed to the Jin army outside the city.

But there was no way, Xiao Guan was captured, the Beiling Zhou army and the Western Zhou Dynasty could not be contacted, and the grain of the Western Zhou court was not transported.

Although they had robbed a lot of food in Beiling before, the 400,000 soldiers were not a small number of horses, and they confronted the Jin army for several months and were exhausted.

Jun County is still good, at least three meals are still provided, and the soldiers can eat a dry meal.

The situation in Beiling City is even more serious, the food crisis has drawn a red line, and the whole army has reduced its rations by half, and when there is no war, they only drink gruel to satisfy their stomachs.

This is also the reason why Zhou Jun is so anxious about peace talks, no matter what happens to Nanchu, if it continues to be consumed like this, once the grain stock is exhausted, there is no need to fight at all, and the 400,000 horses in Beiling can be so hungry that they can't even pick up a knife.

From this point of view, the 50,000 horses that can feed their stomachs in Junxian County are quite good in combat effectiveness in the Zhou army.

On the castle tower

Lu Fanglian had been guarded by his own guards and temporarily withdrew to the rear, looking at the embarrassed appearance of the Zhou army in the city being beaten by the white-robed army, General Lu's face turned pale.

"Go, hurry up and urge my father, Nancheng is in a hurry, let him send some more people."

The guards were ordered to leave in a hurry, and as soon as they walked away, Lu Fanglian saw a person running over with a cloak and blood stained, Lu Fanglin fixed his eyes and saw that it was the general he had just sent to the city gate to support, and he was surprised.

"Why did you come back, didn't you ask you to handle the city gate, how is the city gate now?"

The general fell to the ground and cried: "Major General, we have been tricked, this time it is not the people in the city who will attack the city gate, but the elite of the Jin army who have mixed into the city...... The city gates let them take away ........."

"Poof"

Although Lu Fanglian had a bad premonition in his heart when he saw the miserable appearance of the general, there was still a trace of luck, until he was told by the general, he could no longer hold back the resentment and anger in his heart, his eyes turned black, and he directly sprayed a mouthful of blood.

"Major General."

The four guards hurriedly supported Lu Fanglian, Lu Fang shook three times in a row, barely came to his senses, and pointed at the general and scolded.

"The 400,000 troops of the imperial court and my father and son are all lost to you today.........
