Yuncheng diverts the water of the Shahe River and flows into the moat.

The rebels filled the river day and night, and with their numerical superiority, they filled a large section of the river in less than six days.

Outside the city walls, tens of thousands of rebels threw frames of dirt and bags of sand and gravel into the moat, rolling up turbid waves, and the river turned muddy yellow.

The Dashun Imperial Court had just been established, and the army did not have a complete logistics system, and the equipment was basically captured before.

Although Li Zicheng has a workshop in Guanzhong to build equipment, he can only barely meet the equipment and consumption of the main force of the fifth battalion.

There were not many arrows in the city, and after shooting, they could only fight hand-to-hand, and Yuncheng did not do his best to prevent the rebels from filling the river, but prepared to save the arrows for the defense of the city.

On the wilderness outside the city walls, countless rebels are carrying dirt to the river, one after another wheelbarrows are connected together, and the flow of people shuttles, looking down from the air, just like ants moving, the scene is magnificent and magnificent.

In the process of filling the river, the vast majority of people are safe, the defenders of the city do not shoot indiscriminately, only close to the last moment of the moat filling, the city has sporadic arrows to shoot down, from time to time people with soil, planted into the moat together.

Han Jiadi, Li Jiyu, and Liu Xuan rode on war horses, holding the reins of their horses, watching that the rebel soldiers had filled in most of the moat, and they were all satisfied with this progress.

"I'll see it!" Li Jiyu said to the two: "Yuncheng is too close to the second year of high school, let's take it early, in case the second year of high school comes to help, we will be attacked inside and outside." ”

"Medium!" Han Jiadi nodded, "Now that more than 100 zhang has been filled, then stop filling the river and prepare to attack!" ”

Liu Xuan also agreed: "Then we will take Yuncheng first, and then use it as a base to attack Runing." I heard that Runing Mansion in the second year of high school is very wealthy, so we will take it down and divide his property and territory equally, and our strength will definitely be doubled. Haha~~~~~~"

The trumpets sounded in the middle of the rebels, and the men and horses who filled the river receded like a tidal wave, leaving only baskets scattered in the wilderness and scattered corpses.

Not long after, two miles outside the city, a large number of figures holding various weapons gathered.

The soldiers who put arrows at the head of the city, holding bows and arrows, stopped shooting, and looked at the rebels gathered in the distance with a somewhat grim gaze, and felt a heavy pressure in their hearts.

Zhao Mingchong looked at the moat that had been filled, the originally wide river channel was only left near the side of the city wall, and there was still a thin stream left. That's because the rebels were afraid that the rolling stones and logs would fall and not fill it up, and besides, the river became a small stream, which no longer affected the siege, so there was no need to fill it up.

As soon as the moat was filled, the city wall lost the protection of the moat, and the rebels could basically rush directly to the city and erect ladders to climb.

Zhao Mingchong's expression was grim, and he waved his hand and shouted, "Prepare to defend!" ”

The drums of "dong dong dong" sounded, and the tens of thousands of rebels gathered outside the city suddenly let out a roar, and the army rushed to Yuncheng like a tide.

The rebels launched their first attack, and more than 10,000 rebels under the leadership of Li Jiyu attacked the northern city of Yuncheng.

The rebels roared in unison, shouting and killing, and the rebels in front carried nearly a hundred long ladders and ran barefoot towards the city wall like a tide.

During the time when the rebels filled the river, Zhao Mingchong was not idle, stepped up the layout of the city defense, and prepared a large number of equipment to defend the city.

At this time, Zhao Mingchong personally commanded in the city, and the arrows that were originally saved fell like raindrops at this time, overwhelmingly shooting at the surging rebels, and the rebel soldiers fell to the ground one after another.

However, there was no resistance from the moat, and the rebel soldiers soon rushed to the bottom of the city, erected ladders one after another, and roared upwards.

For a time, the rolling stones and sassals at the head of the city fell, the arrows above and below the city were intertwined like rain, and the rebel soldiers fell from the ladder with screams, and the attacking and defending sides fought fiercely.

At twilight, the corpses of the rebels were left behind, and they receded like a tidal wave.

Zhao Mingchong couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw that the blood was soaking the city, and there were corpses and injured soldiers everywhere.

If the rebels continue to drive the young and strong men and horses to attack the city, Yuncheng will definitely not be able to hold out for long.

"Captain, the person we went to Runing to ask for help is back!" A soldier hurried up to the city.

Zhao Mingchong was overjoyed and asked anxiously, "Bring it over quickly." ”

Not long after, a soldier was brought in and knelt on one knee, "Captain Qiyu, General Gao promised to send troops, saying that within three or five days, he will reach Yuncheng!" ”

Zhao Mingchong was overjoyed, but he was a little worried.

Now that Li Zicheng has been defeated, his prestige is not as good as before, and the rule of the Dashun court everywhere has collapsed, and there is a trend of princes rising together.

Earlier, there were rumors in the army that Gao Yihuan invited Wang Tizhong to attack Xiangyang, deliberately killed Wang Tizhong, and then annexed his soldiers and horses.

That was when Li Zicheng was in the middle of his life, and now that Gao Yihuan came to rescue Yuncheng, would he take the opportunity to eat him?

It is rumored in Yuzhou that the second brother of Runan High School is righteous to his brothers and black to the enemy. If he doesn't obey, will he be like the king, inexplicably killed on the battlefield?

Zhao Mingchong is Bai Wang's person, Bai Wang has been kind to him, but he has already asked Bai Wang for reinforcements, but Bai Wang doesn't care, and he can't be blamed for the fact that Yuncheng was taken away by Gao Yihuan.

Thinking of this, Zhao Mingchong said to the visitor: "The situation is urgent, I will ask someone to write a letter, you will work hard, rush to Luoyang overnight, and hand over the letter to Bai Shuai." ”

At that moment, he called the scribe and dictated a few words, and after the scribe wrote it down, he immediately sent it to Luoyang.

The rebel camp outside the city, after the siege of the city one day, Li Jiyu and others were discussing in the camp.

"Attacking as it is today, I don't see that I can take Yuncheng in three days." Liu Xuan said confidently.

Han Jiadi nodded, "We only attacked one side today, so we were driven down the city by the thieves." Tomorrow to attack the city, Brother Li continued to attack from the river reclamation, I and Brother Liu feint to attack the east and west cities, leaving the southern city not to attack, the thieves will inevitably escape from the southern city. I ambushed an army on the road again, and Zhao Mingchong could capture this turtle grandson. ”

Several people laughed, and suddenly the curtain was lifted, and a leader came in in panic, "A few generals, it's not good, the spies found a group of people and horses, which are bypassing Yuncheng and heading to Xuzhou." ”

"What?" Han Jiadi stood up in shock.

Xuzhou is his old nest, and most of the grain and grass of the three families are also placed in Xuzhou, and he is ready to run Xuzhou on a large scale like Cao Mengde and establish a meritorious career.

Liu Xuan's face was also shocked, "Whose people?" How many people are there? ”

Li Jiyu didn't wait for the junior colonel to speak, so he scolded angrily: "You still need to ask, it must be the person from the turtle grandson in the second year of high school!" ”

The little colonel clenched his fists and replied: "There are more than 3,000 people from the south, it should be Runing's people!" ”

Since everyone wanted to fight Runing, they naturally knew that they would fight Gao Yihuan, but they didn't expect that Gao Yihuan would be killed before Yuncheng was defeated, and this decisive battle came a little fast.

Yuncheng has not yet been captured, but Gao Yihuan's soldiers and horses suddenly arrived, which made Han Jia upset for the first time, "Turtle Sun came up with a black tiger to dig out the heart, making us lose sight of one or the other." This Yuncheng can't be fought, you have to find a high war first. ”

Li Jiyu said: "It is impossible for the second year of high school to only have 3,000 people, there must be a large army coming." ”

Han Jiadi thought so, and hurriedly ordered, "Quickly, immediately send spies to the south to find out the movements of the second year of high school~~~~~~"
