"The military advisor naturally has the meaning of the military advisor, don't think about it, tomorrow we will capture Shang County and wait for Wu Yunzhao's arrival." Zhang Xiu replied, this is Zhang Xiu's trust in Chen Gong, even if there are some things in Chen Gong that make Zhang Xiu very dissatisfied, Zhang Xiu still trusts Chen Gong very much.

"No!"

……

The next day, under the leadership of Hu Che'er, Zhang Xiu's army easily took Shang County.

And it didn't take long for all this to reach Wu Yunzhao's ears, and Wu Yunzhao immediately changed the route of the march and led his troops to Shang County to kill.

What Wu Yunzhao didn't know was that in addition to the 20,000 troops around him, the rest of his troops had already surrendered and perished.

……

Changan

"Is what the military advisor said true?" Dong Cheng asked excitedly.

"Of course, Yizhou has already sent troops, or it won't be long before they can kill Chang'an, at that time, as long as Chang'an City responds, they will be able to take Chang'an in an instant, and Yang Guang will have nowhere to escape." Li Ru said affirmatively.

"What are the arrangements for the military division?" Dong Cheng asked.

"You arrange your own manpower, the timing is the same, and you can do it cheaply." Li Ru replied simply.

"It's as simple as that?" Dong Cheng was a little skeptical.

"It's that simple!" Li Ru's face was calm.

"Okay, Dong Cheng understands." Seeing Li Ru like this, Dong Cheng nodded in response.

"I won't bother, Lord Dong, please arrange the manpower as soon as possible." Li Ru stood up and said with a smile.

"I'm not far away!" Dong Cheng also got up.

After Li Ru left, Dong Cheng immediately began to arrange and arrange, in addition to Dong Cheng's Dong family, there are many families in Chang'an who are making the same preparations.

The strange thing is that since Liu Xie's disappearance, Chang'an's ministers who originally opposed Yang Guang have been silent, which makes Yang Guang feel surprised, what Yang Guang doesn't know is that in addition to Liu Xie, the ministers in the court and the central government all admire Yang Guang very much, admiring Yang Guang's ability and wisdom.

Liu Xie is gone, they feel that it is better to follow Yang Guang, as for Liu Bian, they don't have this idea, when Dong Zhuo abolished Liu Bian, they supported it, they belonged to Liu Xie's lineage, let them support Liu Bian, they were unwilling, even if they were willing, they would not be able to benefit from Liu Bian's command, and it was impossible to have their current status, compared to Liu Bian, they felt that it was still good to follow Yang Guang, so naturally after Liu Xie disappeared, they no longer opposed Yang Guang.

……

Shang County,

At this time, the county town of Shang was surrounded by Wu Yunzhao's army, Zhang Xiu's army had been stuck in the city and never went out, and Wu Yunzhao had never attacked the city, so he stayed outside the city.

"Lord, why didn't Wu Yunzhao attack the city?" Hu Che'er asked.

"He must be waiting for his reinforcements!" Zhang Xiu replied with a frown.

"Then when his reinforcements arrive, won't our army be in danger." Hu Che'er said worriedly.

"Let's look at it again, take it one step at a time!" Zhang Xiu was also extremely sad and worried.

At the same time, in Wu Yunzhao's camp, it was also gloomy, and compared with Zhang Xiu, Hu Che'er, and Wu Yunzhao, Wu Yunzhao was even more sorrowful, it can be said that it was a sad mess, because Wu Yunzhao's other soldiers and horses have not heard from him until now, and none of the people he sent out have come back.

"General, we're done!" Wu Yunzhao's subordinates sat on the ground even more sadly.

"It's not over, it's not over, Chang'an must be defended, abandon Shangxian, abandon Zhang Xiu, abandon Hongnong, the army can return to Chang'an to guard Chang'an, as long as Chang'an is held, everything will not end." Wu Yunzhao was stubborn and said excitedly.

"Pass the order, the army will march and withdraw to Chang'an." Wu Yunzhao ordered strongly.

"No!"

"General, something is wrong!" However, not long after Wu Yunzhao gave the order, a general hurriedly broke into Wu Yunzhao's big tent.

"What's wrong?" Wu Yunzhao immediately asked.

"Our army is surrounded!" The general said tremblingly.

"What do you mean!" Wu Yunzhao's face changed greatly.

"Our army is surrounded!"

Wu Yunzhao was shocked when he heard this, his eyes were blank, he took a few steps back, touched something, and sat on the ground.

"General!"

The general hurriedly walked to Wu Yunzhao's side and helped Wu Yunzhao up.

"It's over, it's completely over, I, Wu Yunzhao, am a sinner, I hurt my brothers and my lord." is as strong as Wu Yunzhao, and he can't help crying at this time.

"General, we can break out, with the skills of a general, we can definitely break through." The general persuaded.

"Break through, how big will the cost of breaking through, even if someone can break through, then soldiers, how many of them will go out for a certain breakthrough and be buried here." Wu Yunzhao said sadly.

"General, at this moment, as the chief general, you must not fall into grief, if you give up, then our army will really have no chance." The general persuaded again.

"So-and-so knows, you go down, inform the soldiers, guard the camp well, so-and-so wants to be quiet." Wu Yunzhao commanded in a low voice.

"General, take care!"

……

Chang'an, the night is sultry, a round of crescent moon quietly hangs in the night sky, tonight's moon is so dark, there are no shining stars tonight, only a few dim stars, gloomy sky, it seems that soon, there will be a heavy rain coming, the boiling Chang'an City, the lights were extinguished early, fell into a deep sleep.

This hour is the most sleepy hour, not to mention those who have fallen asleep, but to say that the soldiers who guard the city and patrol the night are also drowsy.

Outside Chang'an City, a huge team was slowly sneaking towards Chang'an City with the help of the faint moonlight, and all this people in Chang'an City did not know.

Half an hour later, the army was less than a foot away from the moat, and this was the easiest place to be found.

The moat of Chang'an City is wider than other moats, this moat has a distance of nearly ten zhang, and there is not only one bridge on the moat, but three stone bridges side by side at each city gate.

"Let's go!"

The people at the front of the army had already arrived in front of the stone bridge, and what they didn't know was that under the cover of the night, there was something on the stone bridge that could expose them.

"Ding, ding, ding, ding......"

Not long after stepping on the stone bridge, the crisp and loud bells rang in the night sky, and in the silent night, these crisp bells were particularly loud.

"Oops!"

"Rush over!"

Suddenly, the army that was originally slowly sneaking rushed towards Chang'an City frantically.

"Dingding! Ding! The bell rang again, this time more intensely, louder.

However, the bells on the stone bridge fell one by one as they ran, but even that was enough, because at this time, countless torches had risen on the city wall.

"There are enemies! There are enemies! The defenders of the city kept shouting.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!" The defenders at the head of the city drew their bows and arrows one by one.

"Rush, rush!" Those who rushed to the front rushed frantically towards the city gate, and some of them had already picked up the thick bumper wood, and one of them was Luo Shixin.

"Bump!" finally rushed to the city gate, and Luo Shixin directly led people to hit the city gate. As for the outside gates, countless people have already fallen, and arrows are still being fired from the walls.

Of course, the people outside the city were not without resistance, and the army behind the moat had organized a strong bow and arrow corps and was returning fire to the defenders at the head of the city.

"Bang!"

A huge sound came out at the city gate, and the city gate was slightly bumped by Luo Shixin and others, but it did not crash open.

"Come again!"

After making adjustments, Luo Shixin and everyone rushed to the city gate again.

"Bang!"

A loud sound rang out again, and the gates were still not slammed open, but they were much stronger than the first.

"Quick, go and defend the gates!" The soldiers on the tower shouted, and a dozen soldiers ran towards the city gate.

"Bump again!" Luo Shixin shouted.

The crowd slammed into the gate again, no doubt with a loud bang, but it still didn't break open.

"Quick, defend the gates!" The soldiers who had just left the city, looking at the appearance of the city gate, all changed their faces, because the bolt of the city gate had changed very obviously, and they were all cracked, and if they had a few more times, they would inevitably be knocked open.
