Chapter 106: Movement in the City

Fuqu Mengxun heard that the Xiliang army was killed in the siege of the city and abandoned the armor, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, now the more than 60,000 people of the Xiliang army still can't help the strong Zhangye City, and the frustrated Mengxun feasted the ministers for several days.

The Huns in the city no longer have the nervousness they had before, and some Han people are hiding at home, not daring to go out at all, for fear of being forcibly conscripted by the Huns as people's husbands.

For several days, the Xiliang army outside the city did not move, and the frustrated Qu Funu did not dare to relax, and now the Xiliang army besieged the city, and Guzang's frustrated Qu Yizi had no news, and the city was besieged by the Xiliang army.

Fuqu Mengxun ordered Qiyin to send dragon and tiger guards to sneak out of the city, wanting to make Fuqu Mashiko lead troops to relieve the siege of Zhangye, but all the dragon and tiger guards sent were discovered by the Xiliang army, and those dragon and tiger guards killed themselves immediately once they were surrounded by the Xiliang army in order not to be caught by the Xiliang army.

In the north of the city, the blood wolf guard led by Shi has been sneaking into the city for more than a month, and the sound of killing outside the city let them know that the Xiliang army is attacking the city. But these days, there are rumors in the city that the Xiliang army has been defeated, and it will not be long before the Xiliang army will withdraw.

These news made the stone and others feel angry, and now they have infiltrated the city, and they have not made an inch, if the Xiliang army is defeated and withdrawn, then there is no way to attack Zhangye.

"Is it all arranged?" The stone cat was in the dilapidated house, and asked in a low voice to the Blood Wolf Guard, who had just walked in.

The man with a scruffy beard turned around and closed the broken door, leaned into the stone ear and said: "Brother Shi, Lao Feng has already brought his brothers in, and he has been carrying arrows and logs to defend the city for those Hun thieves these days. ”

"How can so many people be lost?" Stone said with a look of disbelief.

"Brother Shi, this Zhangye City is more than a foot higher than our Xihai City, and these Hun thieves will recruit the young and strong people in the city as people's husbands, and the Hun thieves occupy a favorable location, and I am afraid that there will be no chance for my Daliang soldiers and horses to take Zhangye for a while."

"No, the general ordered me to wait for the opportunity to take the city gate, I have tens of thousands of troops outside the city, according to my estimates, the grain and grass will support at most half a year, if I can't take Zhangye at that time, I'm afraid there will be no chance." Stone shook his head, clenching his fists tightly.

"What then? Lao Feng said that there were more than 300 Hun thieves guarding the north gate, and they couldn't get close at all. Moreover, there are now more than 6,000 Hun thieves in Beicheng, and we will not be able to take the city gate for a while. ”

"I see. You go back first, be careful, and don't show any traces, or you know what to do. The stone was silent for a while, and then said to the blood wolf guard in front of him.

"Brother Shi, don't worry. I went out first. ”

After watching the people go out, Stone turned and walked towards the back room.

Late at night, in the palace of Fuqu Mengxun, Qiyin is standing respectfully beside Fuqu Mengxun, although the Xiliang army has been temporarily defeated, but the siege of Zhangye has not been resolved.

"King, the last general has just sent fifty guards out of the city, and it has been explored clearly these days, the defense of the Xiliang army in the west of the city is the most lax, and this time it will definitely be able to break out of the siege of the Xiliang army." Qi Yin bowed to Fuqu Mengxun, bowed and said.

"Good. What's going on in the city? Frustrated Meng Xun stared at the yin and nodded.

"King Qiqi, there is no movement among the leaders of the various departments in the city, but there are some families in the city who are afraid that the Xiliang Army will break through Zhangye, and some people are already preparing for the back road~"

"Huh? Could it be that they want to take refuge in Li Wei? ”

"The king can rest assured, the last general has ordered someone to monitor these families, and if there is any change, he will take them down." Seeing that Meng Xun's face was very ugly, he knelt down in fright and said.

"Go down. Report the situation in time. Frustrated Meng Xun waved his hand and motioned for Qi Yin to retreat.

"The last will be retired." Qiyin bowed to Fuqu Mengxun and retreated.

Frustrated Meng Xun looked at the recital on the case and said coldly: "Hmph! Li Wei, Zhangye is the burial place of your Xiliang Army! ”

It has been three watches, Zhangye west of the city, here by the Xiliang rebel general Zhu Yuanhu guarded, a few days ago the siege of the city Zhu Yuanhu under the command of more than 2,000 casualties, now the west of the city is less than 8,000 soldiers and horses.

In the dark night, dozens of Huns dressed in the uniforms of the Xiliang Army were passing through the camp of the Xiliang Army, and the west of the city led to Lejuan, so the defense of the Xiliang Army here was relatively not so tight. These Huns were only discovered by the sergeants patrolling the camp when they were about to leave the camp.

Although dressed like the Xiliang Army, but soon the sergeant patrolling the camp found that these people were the Huns at all, a big battle, these Huns desperately protected one person to break out of the encirclement, and finally the three Huns robbed the horses of the Xiliang Army and fled from the camp.

"What do you say? Escaped? In Zhu Yuanhu's big tent, he yelled sleepily.

There was chaos in the camp, Zhu Yuanhu woke up from his sleep, and at this moment, seeing the lieutenant colonel in front of him come to report that the Hun thieves came out of Zhangye City, and they also went out from the west of the city guarded by himself, Zhu Yuanhu was extremely angry.

"General, these Hun thieves are ruthless, they are not ordinary Hun thieves, and the brothers let them rush out without noticing for a while. The last general is guilty, please punish the general. ”

"Alright. This is the end of the matter, if anyone asks, they will say that the Hun thieves have all been killed. If it is known that the Hun thieves were released from Benjiang, do you know the consequences? ”

"Yes. The Admiral knows. ”

Li Xin has been very restless these days, the Xiliang army has suffered heavy losses in this battle, and in the face of the strong walls of Zhangye City, he has no way to break the enemy.

Seeing that the army has been under the city of Zhangye for more than half a month, it has not been able to advance or retreat so far, and the Xiliang army has not taken Zhangye and cannot control the counties east of Zhangye at all, otherwise once the Xiongnu army cuts off the back road, it will be self-defeating.

For today's plan, only by taking Zhangye can we occupy the territory of Beiliang. These days, there are already rumors in the army that the army is going to withdraw, which makes people panic, and Li Xin himself is even more helpless.

"Your Highness, this is a secret letter from General Pingbei." Li Xin was sitting in the tent, and suddenly a personal guard walked up to Li Xin and bowed down to hand Li Xin a letter.

"Hahaha. Good! The order went down, and the army shouted and beat drums under the city. All day long, the drums beat non-stop. ”

"Your Highness, this~?"

"Huh? Just go! Li Xin raised his head and glared at the guard in front of him.

The Xiliang army was under the city of Zhangye, shouting and scolding day and night, and the drums were loud from time to time, and the Xiongnu army at the head of the city somehow looked nervous to guard against the siege of the Xiliang army.

The Huns at the head of the city hated the Xiliang army that was constantly provoking under the city, and these Xiliang troops were outside the range of the bow and crossbow, harassing them day and night.

Just when the Huns thought that the Xiliang army was just trying to provoke and lure the Huns to battle outside the city, the catapults of the Xiliang army launched an attack on Zhangye City.

After a few days, the Xiongnu army did not tire of it, and the harassment of the Xiliang army made these Huns physically and mentally exhausted.
