Chapter 696: The Turtle in the Urn

The two sides fought fiercely, and the troops stationed at the gates of the city were extremely elite soldiers.

Even, there is no shortage of Jade Dragon Guards under the command of the sea tiger to participate in it,

This force desperately held on, making it difficult for Ji Brahma's attack to be effective.

In the evening, the war ended temporarily.

At this time, whether it was the army stationed in Lingui County or the soldiers under Ji Brahma, they were all very tired at this time.

Everyone began to recuperate their spirits and accumulate strength for the next day's battle.

In the middle of the city, a large mansion.

This residence is the temporary command post of Fu Tang, the leading general in the city.

All orders were conveyed through this place, and Fu Tang frowned at this time.

He already had a pen in his hand, and then he waved it, but after writing it down on a piece of paper, it was quickly crumpled into a small ball of paper and thrown on the ground.

In the study, one small paper ball after another has been thrown down, all of which Fu Tang has discarded.

Fu Tang led his troops into the city and took charge of the affairs of the city, and at this time he also began to think about the specific reasons why the enemy would open the four city gates.

But at this time, there is no way to speculate at all, so he is very unhappy.

He always had a feeling in his heart that something was going to be wrong.

This feeling lingered in Fu Tang's mind, and it was never resolved.

It was already late at night, and Fu Tang turned off the lights and went to sleep.

The next day, before dawn, there was a rush of footsteps outside the room.

Then, there was a banging knock on the door, and another shout came: "Commander, open the door, it's not good, something is wrong." ”

The sound was very loud, and Fu Tang was awakened at once.

He rolled over, put on a garment, opened the door and welcomed the soldier in, and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" ”

The soldier said respectfully: "Commander, our soldiers have just appeared, and all the soldiers who blocked us from going to the east gate have disappeared, not a single one. ”

"What?"

After Fu Tang heard this, he immediately showed a particularly excited expression: "Are you sure?" ”

The soldier nodded affirmatively, and said in a deep voice: "Absolutely, I have already informed my brothers to rush to the general to find out about Yu Hailong's situation. Guess what, the soldiers, after inquiring about the news, they immediately came back to report that not a single soldier in the General's Mansion had seen it, which is really rare. ”

After a pause, the soldier added, "I have also informed my brother to inquire about the situation at the Zimen, the South Gate, and the North Gate, and wait for them to come back and deliver the news." ”

After hearing this, Fu Tang quickly got dressed.

Subsequently, Fu Tang said: "It was handled in a timely manner, and it should be like this." ”

While Voltang and the soldiers were still waiting, a centurion came running back.

The centurion raised his hand and saluted, and said in a deep voice: "Commander Qian, there is news from the Zimen, the North Gate, and the South Gate, but I haven't seen the soldiers under Yu Hailong's command.

Their people seem to have disappeared overnight, and they haven't seen a single one, which is also very weird. ”

After Fu Tang heard these words, he said in a deep voice: "If you probe again, you must find out the situation clearly." ”

"Yes!"

When the centurion heard this, he turned and prepared to leave.

Soon, the centurion returned.

He strode up to Fu Tang and said loudly: "Commander, there is something wrong in the city. The gates of the north, south, and east of the city have been sealed, and we are blocked in the city. ”

For a moment, Fu Tang was immediately stunned.

The gates of the city, the south of the city, the north of the city, and the east of the city were all blocked, and all the soldiers under the command of Yu Hailong in the city disappeared, which is really not good news!

The centurion said: "Commander, something is wrong at this time, we must withdraw immediately, we must retreat immediately!" ”

"It's late, it's definitely late!"

Fu Tang waved his hand and said: "Yu Hailong's layout of today's situation must have been arranged last night, the time has come, even if we know the situation now, it must be in the other party's venue, even if we start, and then there is nothing to do."

Now, it is necessary to stabilize the army, act at the opportune moment, and not mess up the rules and regulations. ”

After a pause, Fu Tang continued: "Fortunately, there is still the general's army outside the city, as long as we stabilize our position, there will be no problems. ”

When the centurion and the soldier heard this, they immediately nodded, and they felt that what they said made sense, but their expressions were very solemn.

"Report!!"

A crisp voice was heard, and a soldier ran in again.

The soldier said eagerly: "Commander, the south of the city, the east of the city, the north of the city, and the places near the city gate have already lit a fire.

It's a hot summer, the weather is dry, all the houses, trees, etc. are burning at one point, and the fire is so huge that it is almost impossible to resist. This time, we were designed. ”

"The turtle in the urn!"

After hearing these words, Fu Tang said loudly, and the whole person was also temporarily distracted.

At this time, he realized that he had truly become a turtle in an urn.

The four city gates of Zi, South, North, and East were all closed, and a fire broke out in the city, and the soldiers led by Yu Hailong and Yu Haihu suddenly disappeared, obviously wanting to burn him and the soldiers under his command to death.

Fu Tang didn't know how Yu Hailong and the soldiers under his command disappeared, and he didn't know how the other party unknowingly closed the city gates, but Yu Hailong arranged so many arrangements for this day.

Yu Hailong took the initiative to open the south gate in order to let Ji Brahma's army take the initiative to enter.

Next, Yu Hailong opened the eastern, northern, and sub-gates again, in order to allow Ji Brahma to enter the city further, instead of staying on the city tower all the time.

When Ji Brahma's army entered the city, Yu Hailong sent his army to take the initiative to fight with the soldiers under Ji Brahma's command, pushing the battle to the point of fierceness, so as to have enough atmosphere.

Next, Yu Hailong suddenly retreated, forcing Ji Brahma into a desperate situation.

However, Ji Brahma led part of his forces to hide outside the city, while Fu Tang led some of his soldiers into the city, and it was Fu Tang and the rest of the soldiers who were ambushed.

Now that the places close to the Sifang City Gate are on fire, Fu Tang will definitely encounter great difficulties if he wants to attack the city gate.

Not only that, but after the fire in the city spreads, it will soon form a monstrous fire, which is extremely terrifying.

Everything, you have to rely on Ji Brahma to rescue.

It's so hard!

Fu Tang sighed in his heart and said, "Withdraw, let's go to the east gate to break through." ”。

At this time, Fu Tang had to break through.

The centurion and the soldiers immediately went to deliver the order to bring back the soldiers from all directions.
