Chapter 444: Nanping Xiao Milling (5)
Wen Shihong coldly "snorted" and said: "If you want to fight, you will fight, why bother talking nonsense!" As soon as the words fell, another flurry of arrows flew.
I stepped back a little and said to Qiu Ying, "Lure them out of the city to fight!" ”
Qiu Ying got up and ordered, rode on a horse and ordered dozens of people: "Go to the city with me and scold!" As he spoke, he rushed to the front in the rain of arrows.
But the arrows stopped at this point.
Seeing this, Qiu Ying waved behind him, and the people who followed him rushed to the city, and I rode on a horse, and I could hear their shouting and scolding under the city from a distance, not that Xiao Mo was a turtle with a shrunken head, or that Nanliang only had a group of cowards, and there were no real warriors at all, and then scolded Wen Shihong, saying that he was not a strong inward, and a straw bag.
Even unrelated people who heard these words, I am afraid that they will be angry for the people in Jingzhou City, and it will reach my ears from afar, but I can't help but think of the past when I was defeated in Hedong, and I feel a burst of emotion in my heart.
After a short time, there was a commotion on the castle tower, and it seemed that someone was arguing.
I was secretly happy in my heart, but I only looked at the city gate without saying a word, thinking that maybe someone would come out to fight, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't see the city gate being opened.
The person who came was sent by Xu Shao, and told me that Xu Shao had launched an attack in the west.
My heart moved, knowing that the commotion on the tower of the city was because of this, I thought about it, pulled out my sword and pointed at the city tower: "Don't wait any longer, set up a ladder and climb the tower!" ”
Qiu Yingqi shouted and cursed under the city for a while, and when he found that it didn't work, he turned back to me and wanted to go upstairs.
I thought for a moment and said, "You sit here for me, and I'll go into the city to take a look!" ”
Qiu Yingqi agreed, and I took off my armor, pointed to the flag behind me and said, "Guard it for me!" ”
With that, he parted the crowd and passed through the soldiers.
Not far from the city, the fight behind me seemed to have nothing to do with me, so I slowed the reins and let the horse walk slowly eastward for a while, then turned the horse's head and whipped it on the horse's belly.
The horse was in pain, and his front hooves rose into the air, neighing, and galloped forward, and I knew that the sound of the horse's hooves would be noticed by the people on the castle tower, so I simply cried out, "Not good! Oh no! Yuezhou was lost, and General Dong was killed! After shouting several times, he turned back to the north gate of Jingzhou City.
The people on the city tower saw a fast horse galloping at first glance, and when they heard that Yuezhou was lost, they became a little commotion.
I came to the city gate and slammed on the door, and the people inside naturally could not easily open the door for me, and after waiting for a while, there were suddenly several screams in the city.
After a while, someone shouted, "Where is Xiao Miao?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the city gate was suddenly opened, and I was stunned for a moment, and I flashed to the side, only to see a dense crowd of Liang soldiers rushing out of the city gate, and as soon as they encountered the Tang army, they began to fight.
We had been preparing for a long time below, and the enemy rushed over, and the accumulated morale was stimulated, and I hid aside and looked coldly, only to see that both our and the enemy soldiers had already been killed in a few rounds, and if we continued like this, we could barely enter the city, and I am afraid that it would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
Thinking of this, I retreated into the city in a flash while the gates were closed again.
I have never been to Jingzhou City, I am too unfamiliar with the terrain in the city, and I have not found the location of Xiao Milling Palace when I turn eastward.
After going around like this for a short time, he was about to turn a corner, and a person flashed out of the corner, covering his face with a black scarf, and he couldn't tell whether he was friend or foe.
At this moment, I was in the enemy city, and the slightest carelessness would be life-threatening, so I didn't have time to think about it, so I untied the soft sword at my waist and stabbed at the man.
The man was stunned, took a few steps back, but did not fight back, only avoided the edge, and made another move, before he had time to remove the black veil covering his face, and when I saw it, it was Xu Zhiren.
Xu Zhiren arched his hand at me and said, "Your Majesty forgives me." ”
Surprised and delighted, I stepped forward and took his hand and said, "How are you in this city?" ”
Xu Zhiren said: "Actually, my father was ready as early as ten days ago, and when His Majesty arrived, I took this opportunity to sneak into this city." ”
I said, "Can you find out what is going on in the city?" ”
Xu Zhiren said: "I have already found out clearly, Your Majesty is attacking the city at the north gate, if you can't attack it for a long time, if the soldiers outside Anzhou City hear the news, they will rush to support, at that time, Your Majesty is only afraid that it will be difficult to retreat, so the only way to seize this city is to seize it." ”
I nodded and said, "That's right, but I don't know if General Xu is coming from the west, how is the offensive?" ”
Xu Zhiren said: "With His Majesty's troops in Jingzhou City, the pressure on my father to attack the city has plummeted, and now they are facing enemies on both sides, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist." ”
I said, "Even so, if you really attack the city, this city will only be ......," I looked up at the vast night sky, and continued, "If you can catch Xiao Miao, everything will be easy." ”
Xu Zhiren said: "The last general is in the city, just to find Xiao Milling. ”
I said, "Do you have any news?" ”
Xu Zhiren shook his head and said: "Xiao Mo is not extravagant, he just moved to Jingzhou, and there is no palace, where he lives is unknown, and the war outside is so tight, he will never be greedy for security, he will personally supervise the war, but I have never seen him now." ”
Just as I was talking, there was a sound of footsteps, I pulled Xu Zhiren and leaned against the corner, and saw a column of soldiers with very neat appearances heading towards the north gate.
Xu Zhiren suddenly pulled the placket of my shirt and pointed at it with his hand.
I looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that this column of soldiers had come to open the way, and in the crowd behind them, the one sitting on the horse and staring at the front was not Xiao Miao.
It seems that he is going to personally oversee the battle in the north of the city.
When I saw Xiao Miao, I was about to rush out to catch him, but Xu Zhiren grabbed me and whispered, "Your Majesty thinks twice." ”
I looked back and smiled: "If you catch Xiao Miao, these people won't be able to help us, you wait and see!" As he spoke, he swept off his hand, and rushed out with a lunge.
Before the soldiers could see my figure, I had already jumped on my horse and sat down behind Xiao Mo with a light tap on their tiptoes.
Xiao Mo sensed that there was danger, and with the reins, everyone from front to back stopped.
The sword in my hand was on his neck, and I whispered in his ear, "You are Xiao Miao?" Since you dare to hand over the war letter to Chang'an, now I will go to the meeting in person, and you can go to the north of the city with me! As he spoke, he dodged the reins in his hand, "If you want your lord to live, let me flash aside!" ”
Xiao Mo sneered and said, "You are Li Jiancheng?" Sure enough, there is some ability. The latest chapter of "Crossing the Prosperous Age of the Hidden Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
