Bang~"

"Ah~"

"Boom~"

Dingzhou Linyuan Pass, the last barrier in Dingyang, is now full of beacon fires, and the sound of killing is shocking.

"Shoot the arrows!"

On the top of the wall, the defender of the city will look at the dense crowd under the wall, and when he is approaching with a ladder and pushing the siege vehicle, he immediately orders the archers who are waiting for him to open their bows and save arrows.

But seeing a black locust rising above the wall, it fell into the advancing Shangguan army formation with a noisy sound.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk~"

"Puff~"

"Uh~~"

The interweaving of arrows into shields and the soft sound of arrows burrowing into flesh echoed through the besieging crowd, making the battlefield even more terrifying.

"Golden Juice~"

Seeing that several long ladders were already leaning against the edge of the wall, the guards on the wall roared, and several mouthfuls of boiling dung juice that emitted a pungent stench were carried directly above the ladder by the defenders covering their faces, and then the cauldron filled with gold juice slowly tilted and fell......

"呲~~"

"Ah~~"

The soldiers of the Shangguan Army, who were climbing on the ladder, had a close contact with the golden juice falling from the sky.

The boiling juice poured into their bodies from the cracks in their armor, and bursts of white smoke came out, burning the intact skin and flesh, revealing a terrifying white bone as far as the eye could see on their faces and hands, which was shocking.

Mournful howls soon rang out on the ladders, and the scalded soldiers screamed and rolled down the ladders, and fell to the ground waiting to climb the crowd, overwhelmed by the crowd.

"Rolling Stone ~ Rolling Wood!"

After the gold juice was poured, there was another deadly movement on the wall.

The besieging soldiers below looked up, but saw huge pieces of wood and rolling stones floating at the battlements, and before they could react, they fell down with their heads and faces......

"Bang~~"

"Ah~~"

The moment the stone and giant trees rolled down, the soldiers guarding the cloud ladder were immediately smashed to the ground, some were stoned to death on the spot, and those who did not die for a while were all smashed off the bones of various parts of their bodies, rolling and howling on the dry and hard ground......

"Boom~"

"Dingding......

"Retreat~Retreat~"

Just after the last ladder was overturned, the sound of retreating gold came from the rear of the Shangguan army, and the soldiers besieging the city immediately heard that they had been amnesty, and under the command of their respective ministers, they retreated to the main camp like a tide, leaving a mess and the wounded who had not yet had time to be rescued under the wall to wail as hard as they could......

"Roar~Roar~"

Seeing the retreat of the Shangguan army, the naval troops on the wall let out a burst of cheers.

At this time, at the rear of Linyuan Pass, the three Shangguan Yan who were riding their horses to Dingyang in parallel did not even turn their heads when they heard the cheers from the defenders on the wall.

"Ha......" Shangguan Yan chuckled, as if mocking the failure of Shangguan's army to attack the city, and as if expressing disdain for the shouts of the defenders on the wall.

"Continue to Dingyang, it's time for Wei Wenran to show his hole cards, unless, he is willing to sit still and wait for ......"

After chanting softly, Shangguan Yan and Lu Nu and Leng Yan accelerated their pace forward.

……

Dingyang, Governor's Palace.

"Report ~ The Linyuan guard sent Wei Xian to send a secret report, saying that he had repelled several attacks by Shangguan Fei's father and son."

"Present ......"

Wei Wenran took the secret military intelligence report handed by the guards, opened it and took a look at it, and immediately became overjoyed.

"Hahaha, this Wei Xian, well done! Passing on my military order, I immediately took out 400,000 taels of silver and 10,000 taels of gold from the treasury of the governor's palace, and collected 10,000 jars of fine wine from various wine stores in Dingyang and sent them to Linyuan Pass to reward meritorious soldiers! ”

After the guards were ordered to retreat, Wei Wenran turned to look at Xu Wenjing and said, "Military Division, everything is as you expected, now the Shangguan family outside Linyuan Pass has gathered 150,000 soldiers and horses, and most of our plan has been successful......"

Xu Wenjing got up and arched his hand and said, "This is all due to the proper command of the Governor, so that the current situation can be achieved. ”

Wei Wenran shook his head and said: "Military advisor, although most of the soldiers and horses of the Shangguan family have gathered outside the pass, after all, there are only less than 40,000 defenders in the pass, if you stick to the wall, you may be able to deal with it, but if you want to annihilate the anti-thieves in one fell swoop, I'm afraid it will ......."

Xu Wenjing said with a smile: "Your Excellency Governor, don't worry, count the time, Song Jinghao is almost there......"

Wei Wenran said: "Even if Song Jinghao can arrive, I'm afraid that the situation will still not improve, Shangguan's army is strong, and if you want to defeat it completely, you still need the strength to have a decisive battle......

When Xu Wenjing heard this, there was a sneer in his heart, Wei Wenran's meaning could be heard by fools, he wanted to let himself mobilize Jizhou soldiers and horses to come to Dingzhou to destroy Shangguan Fei in one fell swoop.

However, Xu Wenjing does not want to mobilize Jizhou soldiers and horses at present. As soon as Hu Nu came to the north, he was eyeing the tiger, although Liu Ce almost swept away the horses in the Autumn Wind Ranch when he returned to the fortress, but after all, they could still get new war horses from outside the fortress, so they had to be guarded.

Second, he didn't dare to mobilize troops and horses into Dingzhou, since Liu Ce returned from Saiwai, he noticed that he had changed a lot, not only his appearance had changed, but even his heart seemed to have become more difficult to figure out than before, so he had to let himself deal with it carefully.

Third, Xu Wenjing wanted to see how capable Wei Wenran was, and how could the person who could sit on the position of governor be an ordinary person? He must still have a strength in his hands that he doesn't know, and he must be forced out.

These four, in fact, whether the Shangguan family wins or Wei Wenran wins, it doesn't matter to the Jizhou army.

The Shangguan family won, Liu Ce can lead the army to the designated state with the order of counterinsurgency, and the scholars in the Far East will not say anything, after all, Shangguan Fei is indeed the opposite. Wei Wenran won, and his power must have been weakened a lot, and there was a lot of resistance to Liu Ce's acquisition of the military power of the border army in Dingzhou.

Since no matter what the result is, he is in a stable situation, so why risk being suspicious of Liu Ce and send troops to Dingzhou to stir up this troubled water?

"Newspaper~"

At this moment, the voice of the herald sounded outside the door again.

Wei Wenran asked the herald, "What's the matter?" ”

The herald said: "There is an old friend outside the palace who claims to be a military advisor, and wants to see the military advisor, and he said that he has gone to Bibo Pavilion, and when the military advisor is busy with official business, he hopes to go and catch up with him. ”

Xu Wenjing was slightly stunned, and was shocked: "Friend? My friends in the Far East, except for Sima Bo, have no impression of others, is it from Jiangnan? But how did those people in Jiangnan know that I was in the Dingzhou Governor's Mansion now? ”

Thinking of this, Xu Wenjing said to Wei Wenran: "Your Excellency Governor, please forgive me for being rude, and I will retire for the time being......."

Wei Wenran said magnanimously: "The military advisor doesn't need to be so restrained, since it is a friend visiting, the governor can understand, there is nothing important in the house now, but the military advisor is at your own convenience." ”

"Thank you for your understanding, Lord Governor, Wen Jing retired." After Xu Wenjing bowed his hand, he slowly withdrew from the hall of the Governor's Mansion and went towards the Yubo Pavilion.
