Qu Neng's forehead was flat, his eyebrow bones were high, and his eyes were even deeper, and he looked at the Changyi Gate Tower for a long time, and his eyes made the surrounding generals look sad.

Son Qu Liangcai's voice said: "It's a pity! So many brothers died in vain, and they still succeeded! ”

A subordinate general next to him simply scolded: "Li Jinglong, damn it, it's so difficult to send some reinforcements?!" ”

Qu Liangcai groaned: "When my father was in Hejian Mansion, he bluntly admonished, which seems to have offended Cao Guogong. The son heard that Cao Guogong was narrow-minded, didn't he deliberately make things bad behind his back? ”

The general scolded indignantly: "my brain was kicked by a donkey!" We broke through Beiping, and the biggest credit is not his Li Jinglong's? ”

Qu Neng let out a long sigh, retracted his gaze that had been staring for a long time, and raised his arm to stop his generals while riding his horse, "Cao Guogong is not like this, or there is something wrong in the back and forth transmission of military orders." If you don't talk about it, it won't help to be listened to. ”

The general was still furious, and said, "When the governor was the commander of the capital in Sichuan, there were no less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the entire Sichuan, and the governor could still be dispatched like an arm, what did he mean by Li Jinglong only giving more than 1,000 people?" If the damn man gave the soldiers and horses as much as possible, are we still complaining here, I would have done it in Beiping City a long time ago! ”

"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a loud cannon bang on the Changyi Gate, and then the thunderous cannon sound sounded one after another.

There was a "neighing" among the officers and soldiers, and a horse fell to the ground with a bang of flesh and blood, and the knight above was crushed under the horse and screamed.

Qu Neng patted his horse away from the city wall, and the soldiers also turned around and followed. The army took the wounded soldiers and followed Qu Neng out of the Changyi Gate, there was no need to attack here.

A group of men and horses moved to the south, and when they reached the outside of a corner tower, they turned to the east and headed for the main gate of Li.

His son Qu Liangcai rode his horse to catch up, and said: "The man who stood in the city just now is the king of Gaoyang County, and he is the one who shouted at the city gate to use cannons. My son has seen it in Zhuozhou, and this person's martial arts are quite good! ”

"When Xu Gong talked about him, I still despised him a little, it was really a mistake!" Qu Neng responded, "At that time, I shouldn't have sent you to chase you, I should have personally asked for my life!" ”

Qu Neng paused and sighed again: "If King Gaoyang hadn't escaped, why would the Marquis of Changxing have died in the battle?" ”

If Geng Bingwen hadn't died, would it still be Li Jinglong's turn?

However, there is no if-after the fact.

When a group of people approached the Chinese army, they saw flags like clouds. In the midst of the hugs, Li Jinglong rode a horse to greet him. Qu Neng had a gloomy face, and when he slapped his horse forward, he didn't say anything superfluous, just hugged his fists and said, "The last general will meet Cao Guogong." ”

Li Jinglong said: "This commander just ordered his generals to lead troops to reinforce Governor Qu, but I heard that Governor Qu has returned. ”

"There were few generals at the end, and they didn't dare to rush into the city, for fear of falling into a heavy siege, so that the soldiers would die in vain. The last general had to line up to defend the city gate, but the enemy soldiers would use artillery, and when our formation was dense and narrow, the last general could not hold it for a long time, so he had no choice but to retreat. Qu Neng said.

Li Jinglong hurriedly relieved: "It's okay, it's okay. Tomorrow, Qu Dudu will attack the Changyi Gate again, and the commander will transfer the army to the palace! Qu Dudu can break the city today, and he will definitely be able to break the city in the future, next time we will kill the army into it! ”

Qu Neng said helplessly: "I am afraid that the opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again......"

Sure enough, when the official army went to attack Changyi Gate again the next day, the city had already sent additional troops and was heavily armed. The officers and soldiers repeatedly relied on cloud ladders to climb the city and storm it, but it was just to bury more soldiers.

In the following days, the officers and troops surrounded them on all sides, attacking from many places, but it was still difficult to achieve results. On the battle array, the fighter plane is always fleeting, and there is often only one chance; If you miss it, you won't know when you will have to wait for the next opportunity.

At this time, the siege was even more fierce than before, and the officials and troops continued to shell, attach ants, and even dig caves in the ground to attack, but there was still no effect for many days.

…… Time is a little short, and it is the middle of October, and the weather is suddenly cold. One morning, when the official army was about to attack the city, they found that the walls of Beiping were covered with ice! Last night, the defenders of Beiping poured water on the walls on all sides overnight...... With the frozen city walls, the ant siege is no longer possible.

At this moment, the shortage of food in the battalions of the officers and soldiers became more and more serious!

Worse news was then reported to the Chinese army...... King Yan actually kidnapped King Ning who was seeing him off on the way to pretend to leave Daning! Then King Yan turned around and attacked Daning and broke into the city. The total strength of the Daning Guards and the Wuliang Ha Sanwei Domain was nearly 80,000 people...... All surrendered to King Yan!

The generals in the official army had already suggested withdrawing from the army, but Li Jinglong hesitated...... At this time, the tunnel of the acupuncture attack finally had some results, and it seemed that the previous efforts could only be wasted; Once the army is withdrawn, many problems may also arise.

With a large number of infantry troops and baggage, if the official army suddenly retreats at this time and marches south along the plain in a chaotic manner, will it be chased by the cavalry of King Yan? Did the men and horses in Beiping City come out and follow and kill? There are as many as 500,000 officers and soldiers, and if they are chased and beaten by tens of thousands of defenders, they will not be scolded and bloody!

Li Jinglong decided to send the governor Chen Hui to lead the army to the northeast to block the attack, and then deploy a retreat plan!

…… Within two days, when Li Jinglong was worried, someone suddenly walked into the big tent of the Chinese army, knelt down on one knee and bowed: "Commander, Chen Dudu's men and horses were suddenly attacked by elite cavalry, all seven military camps were destroyed, and the troops under Chen Dudu are being defeated in the south!" ”

"Why is it already defeated, and Ben Shuai only knows the news!?" Li Jinglong was furious.

The kneeling general didn't know how to answer.

Unexpectedly, before Li Jinglong had time to vent his anger, someone reported: "Commander, the defenders in the city are out of Desheng Gate, and the generals in the north please send reinforcements to help in the battle!" ”

"Can the defenders still come out?" Li Jinglong roared.

There was a general next to him who hurriedly said: "The marshal is angry, we haven't built fortifications to besiege the city, and the defenders can leave the city at any time." At this time, King Yan's forward is approaching, and the defenders will definitely go out of the city to attack! ”

Li Jinglong sat back in his chair and said coldly: "Order the generals, don't retreat, fight with all your might!" Our 500,000 army is a decisive battle, and we are not afraid of Yan rebellion! ”

"Yes!"

Fortunately, it was getting late at this time, and the attack of the inner and outer Yan armies also stopped a little.

After nightfall, Li Jinglong became more and more restless...... He said in his heart: The army is short of food and grass, the army's heart is turbulent, at this time the siege of the city for many days, the soldiers and horses are tired, and they are attacked from inside and outside, how can they fight?

He suddenly thought of Geng Bingwen's tragic situation, and suddenly a cold sweat broke out!

Li Jinglong thought again: My late father is Taizu's nephew and Taizu's adopted son, and my first grandmother is Taizu's own sister, and I haven't enjoyed enough glory and wealth, so why should I seek death?

At this moment, Li Jinglong regretted a little, regretting that he shouldn't have risked running to the battlefield for that little credit...... But who knew it would turn out like this?! I thought that the 500,000 army would attack the people of King Yan, wouldn't it be easy to probe and get something?

It's a pity that things always backfire.

Frustrated, remorseful, afraid...... Li Jinglong's spirit was on the verge of collapse.
