Inside the city of Linwo.

Zhang Meng lay on the bed weakly, his eyes staring straight at the ceiling, his face full of remorse and unwillingness.

If he could do it all over again, Zhang Meng would definitely leave those damn burdens behind and push towards Linwo City with all his might. In this way, more than 5,000 people will not be killed or injured.

If he could do it all over again, Zhang Meng would never run to intercept Bisu with his martial arts, so he would not be injured by his secret arrows, and if he was not injured, with him in command, then Bisu might not be able to run.

But now, no matter how much he regrets, it's useless. Even resisting the war of the Xianbei people has nothing to do with him. Because just now, Zhao Jun, who had rested all night, rushed to Wushuang City to support under Zhang Meng's order. Although Zhang Meng wanted to personally lead the army to support, unfortunately, his injuries made him unable to go anywhere.

In the words of the Linwo City doctor, although the arrow is non-poisonous, because it is a special arrow, it also caused a lot of damage to Zhang Meng. If you don't recuperate well, I'm afraid that even if you go to Wushuang City, it will be in vain.

Hearing these words, even if Zhang Meng had a great fighting spirit and more desires, he could only force it in his heart and lie on the bed honestly. He doesn't want to die, he also hopes that in his lifetime, he can bring the Zhang family back to the height of the former Zhang Huan.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a slight knock on the door, and then a deep male voice was heard, "Prime Minister, have you rested?" ”

"Come in." Zhang Meng said lightly.

With Zhang Meng's words, a man between forty and fifty years old pushed open the door and slowly walked in, but it was Gu Tan, the county magistrate of Linwo County.

"This time, I am grateful to the county magistrate for saving me. Otherwise, the 30,000 army may not be much left. Seeing the person coming, Zhang Meng thanked him gratefully.

"Hehe, the prime minister doesn't have to be like this. If it weren't for the support of the people, coupled with the military service system after His Highness's reform, how could he have deceived Nabisu? If it weren't for His Highness's good governance, how could the people be desperate for it? Gu Tan stroked his beard and chuckled when he heard this.

Yes, the previous reinforcements were not real troops at all, and they were completely pretended by the people in Linwo City. After discovering that their own troops were being pursued by the enemy outside the city, the people immediately and spontaneously asked to go out of the city for support. In this regard, Gu Tan hesitated again and again, but he couldn't stand the persuasion of the people, and finally nodded and agreed.

Almost the entire population of Linwo County participated in this support, including men, women, old and young, and basically all of them who looked like soldiers as long as they wore equipment. The equipment, on the other hand, is the old equipment that has been abandoned in the warehouse. Originally, it was to be sent to the division to carry out transformation, research, and recasting tests for the people of the Ministry of Industry, but now, it has come in handy.

However, even so, it does not mean that they can really participate in the war, after all, the uneven personnel and the dilapidated equipment make them the only difference from the former Yellow Turban Army, but that many of them have received formal military training. But if you want to compete with the Xianbei cavalry, it is obviously still far behind.

It is precisely for this reason that they are advancing very slowly, and the purpose is nothing more than to create a kind of pressure on the Xianbei people and make them retreat. However, although they only have this purpose, when they leave the city, they have obviously forgotten about life and death. Who knew that this Xianbei cavalry would not kill the Zhao army and destroy them first?

"But no matter what, it's still thanks to County Magistrate Gu." Zhang Meng said with a sigh when he heard this.

At the same time, on the other side, the reinforcements led by Deputy General Zhang Meng chose to advance in the middle of the night in order to be able to enter the city smoothly. But they were still discovered by the Xianbei people who were on strict alert, and if it weren't for Zang Hong's quick fight out of the city to respond, I'm afraid they would all have to stay outside Wushuang City.

It's just that although he got reinforcements, after hearing about Zhang Meng's situation, Zang Hong was not happy at all.

"Alas, does Shu Wei really care too much about those things?" Zang Hong couldn't help but sigh, but then he couldn't help but shake his head, laughing at himself in his heart, "Speaking of which, aren't I the same?" For the stain of the former father, for the future of the Zang family......"

After sighing for a long time, Zang Hong looked at the night sky in the direction of Linwo City with a firm gaze, "Don't worry, Shuwei, I will take your share and firmly guard this city!" ”

It was only early the next morning that he noticed that the enemy army seemed to be a little less, "What kind of movement did the enemy have today?" Zang Hong faintly felt a little uneasy, and hurriedly asked the lieutenant general beside him.

"Back to Fujun, earlier, a detachment of the enemy army left, but the whereabouts of the enemy are unknown. The number of people is about forty or fifty thousand. The adjutant replied in a heavy tone. Because he also knew that when the enemy troops left at this time, it would definitely not be a retreat......

"Forty or fifty thousand ......" Zang Hong's face changed gloomily, but it was a long time, and in the end he could only sigh secretly in his heart, "Shuwei, I hope you don't have anything to do......"

He vaguely felt that the enemy might have gone to attack Linwo City, but because of the previous reinforcements, the siege of Wushuang City by the Xianbei people became more tight. In this case, Zang Hong couldn't do anything at all except stay in the city and hold on.

It is a pity that the target of this Xianbei army is Linwo City, and it is still led by Bisu himself. After arriving at the city, Bisu immediately ordered people to make siege equipment to prepare for the siege, without any intention of underestimating this city.

However, it is no wonder that without knowing that the soldiers in the city are just pretending to be ordinary people, whether it is Kebineng or Budugen, they are full of vigilance against the troops that suddenly appeared in Linwo City. It was not the 10,000 enemy troops that were wary, but the way the enemy suddenly appeared in Linwo City.

Therefore, even if he didn't know how many enemy reinforcements he had rushed into Wushuang City before, Bisu still brought 50,000 troops to attack the city.

"Alas...... It's all a fierce mistake! When Zhang Meng heard the words of County Magistrate Gu, he couldn't help crying.

"Don't worry, although there are only people in the city, there are two or three thousand people who have been trained! And His Highness will definitely send reinforcements! Seeing this, Gu Tan hurriedly comforted.

"Well, what County Magistrate Gu said is good! Your Highness will definitely send reinforcements! And I believe that General Lu's side is already about to get the results. As long as Changshan Kingdom is in chaos, Yuan Tan of Yanmen will definitely withdraw his troops, and when the time comes, Guo Fujun will also be able to lead a large army to support. Zhang Meng nodded and said.

It's just that after Gu Tan left, his expression became sad again, and his eyes were full of remorse.
