Xiyue City!

The north gate has been broken, and the Yan army has poured in.

In the city, the marshal mansion is like a cloud, and the fierce general is like a forest.

At dusk, Wu Jieshao met with Han Zhitong to discuss the defense of Xiyue and Gaoyang.

The blood-colored sun, the tired bird returns!

Wu Jieshao, dressed in armor and looking calm, reported to the maid outside the door, and with permission, he strode into the bedroom of the eldest princess Cao Ruoxuan.

The bedroom is divided into an inner and outer room, and the middle is covered by a screen window and a veil!

In the beautiful face of the eldest princess, the light blue tulle is covered, making the jade more and more full of fairy energy.

The eldest princess is on the front line, there should be etiquette, and Wu Jieshao does not dare to be a little lazy.

"The last general, Wu Jieshao, meet the eldest princess!" When Wu Jieshao walked into the outer room, he didn't dare to go deeper, and bowed his hand to the eldest princess outside.

"The general doesn't need to be polite!" The voice of the eldest princess came from the bedroom!

Wu Jieshao raised his head, and through the veil, he could see the eldest princess sitting on the soft couch.

The beautiful woman's face is sad under the tulle, and her brows are tightly locked, as if she has something on her mind.

Wu Jieshao every time he saw the beautiful woman's expression, he couldn't help but feel a little Jiujiu in his heart.

The eldest princess is as beautiful as a flower, and the emperor's edict said that whoever fights the most bravely has the opportunity to tie the knot with the eldest princess.

In his opinion, it is clear that the emperor will tell him.

Outside, Wu Jieshao sat on the stool and reported to the eldest princess the battle situation in Xiyue City, looking at the beautiful face of the beautiful woman from time to time.

The eldest princess didn't understand military affairs, and Wu Jieshao came to report, just to make the eldest princess feel relieved.

Cao Ruoxuan's eyes caught Wu Jieshao's rude gaze, and she was disgusted.

It's a pity that since she was sent to Xiyue City by the imperial brother, she has become involuntarily.

In the bedroom, Wu Jieshao had just finished reporting to the eldest princess, and there was a rumbling war drum outside, Wu Jieshao's face was condensed, and he listened with his ears pricked up.

The eldest princess's face changed slightly, and she was a little worried!

She was born in the palace, grew up in the palace, dressed in fine clothes and food, and never came into contact with war.

Since Mocheng arrived in Xiyue City, the drums of war have sounded in the city every day.

The drums have never been as dense and tight as they are today, and looking at the expression on Wu Jieshao's face, the eldest princess guessed that most of the Yan troops outside Xiyue City had begun to attack the city.

"General Wu, can it be an enemy attack?" The eldest princess looked shocked, and asked anxiously in a low voice, full of concern about the war in her words.

Wu Jieshao nodded heavily, still sitting on the stool, and said loudly: "Yesterday, Emperor Yan led the main army to the north gate of Xiyue City, and did not take the initiative to choose to attack.

At this moment, the sound of the drums sounded, and Emperor Yan probably couldn't bear it anymore and led his troops to attack! ”

Wu Jieshao repeatedly reminded Xiao Kuanghu, the guard of the North Gate, that if the Yan army attacked, he would take the lead in beating the drum and be vigilant against the whole city's army to prepare for war, so as to avoid the Yan army attacking the city from all sides, and all the four gates of the east, west, south and north would be attacked!

At this moment, the war drums of the north gate sounded, proving that the Yan army began to attack the city.

Hearing this, the eldest princess let out a long sigh with a little sadness on her face.

In recent years, the south has fallen into an eventful autumn, and the Cai country has been plagued by disasters, drought, the Northern Expedition, the invasion of Yan cavalry, and various unexpected encounters, which have caused the Cai army to suffer heavy losses, and the country is on the verge of collapse.

"But, general, it is rumored that Emperor Yan's thug is full-fledged, the Yan army is like a tiger, and Cai Guo is competing with him, does the general need to hold on without fighting?" The eldest princess asked.

Wu Jieshao shook his head slightly, the situation on the battlefield was ever-changing, and he didn't dare to guarantee that the situation in Xiyue City would remain unchanged for a long time.

Just now I told the eldest princess that she refused to defend the city, just to stabilize her mind, so as not to be afraid.

"Eldest princess, at this moment, the sound of military drums came from the north gate, proving that the Yan army began to attack the city, and what would happen in the defense of the city was really unpredictable.

However, under the deployment of the last general, Xiyue City was impregnable, even if all the four gates were broken by the Yan army, Emperor Yan had to go through a bitter battle if he wanted to capture the whole city.

Otherwise, Emperor Yan would not want to seize Xiyue City. ”

The eldest princess doesn't understand military affairs, and the military affairs of Xiyue City are all deployed by Wu Jieshao, seeing Wu Jieshao's full of confidence, her mind gradually calmed down.

"The eldest princess rest assured, the last general will go to meet the enemy, the princess will rest in peace, and at dawn, the last will severely damage the Yan army to ensure that Xiyue City is safe.

If the soldiers cooperate closely and take advantage of the main force of the Yan army to attack the Yan army's camp, it may make Emperor Yan have no place in the south. ”

In the field battle outside the city, Wu Jieshao did not dare to ensure the defeat of the Yan army, but this battle relied on the walls of Xiyue City and the deployment of various places in the city, even if it could not be held for a long time, it would also severely damage the Yan army, and he was confident that the enemy would be outside the city gate.

When the eldest princess heard Wu Jieshao's words, her brows tightened and gradually stretched, her smile floated, and she sighed to herself.

Wu Jie Shao is a famous general of Cai State, after countless wars, he helped the imperial brother quell the rebellion of Cai State, Emperor Yan was violent, unpopular, everyone was punished, and he would not defeat Cai Jun in the south.

Zhu lips said lightly: "General Wu is the minister of Cai Guo, the right-hand man of the imperial brother, and he will definitely be in Xiyue City and deal a heavy blow to Emperor Yan." ”

With the encouragement and trust of the eldest princess, Wu Jieshao became more and more confident, no longer delayed, held his head high, and strode out of the eldest princess's bedroom.

Outside the dormitory, many Cai generals were waiting outside, and Han Zhitong also gathered here with the elite under his tent!

The torches flickered, the flames were transparent, and Wu Jieshao's confident expression came into everyone's eyes. The people will be encouraged, and their fears will gradually disappear.

However, the shouting and killing sound at the north gate became more and more dense and louder, and Wu Jieshao did not dare to hesitate and walked quickly towards the outside of the Shuaifu.

He has a strategy to defend against the enemy, and Emperor Yan must have a way to crack it, and who wins or loses depends on whether to keep Xiyue City.

Han Zhitong and Cai Chu generals followed closely behind.

Han Zhitong saw Wu Jieshao's proud expression, and he didn't know where he got his confidence, so he walked quickly, chased after Wu Jieshao, and said in a low voice: "General Wu, the north gate shouts killing, the sound of gongs and drums is getting closer and closer, and the battle at the north gate is afraid that it is very serious, so send troops to support it immediately, and strive to avoid accidents." ”

Emperor Yan, Yan Jun, after many battles, Han Zhitong's heart is like a mirror, this group of people from Jiangbei are all very terrifying existences.

Fighting to the death with all his might, he does not dare to guarantee that he will succeed in defeating the opponent in the end.

At this moment, Wu Jie and Shao Meiyu were arrogant, did he think that relying on the city alone could stop Emperor Yan and the Yan army?

"General Han is too worried, is he in the north, is he afraid of being beaten by Emperor Yan. Recently, Ben Shuai in Xiyue City, laid out a net of heaven and earth, street to street, lane to lane, building to building, where the enemy can be killed, there are ambushes.

Not to mention, the north gate has the tiger general Xiao Kuanghu under the tent of the commander to defend it, and Emperor Yan can't lead his troops to attack it, even if Emperor Yan spends huge casualties and forcibly breaks through the north gate, in the face of Xiyue City, it is difficult to move an inch in a series of deployments! ”

Wu Jieshao's tone was arrogant, thinking of the deployment in Xiyue City and Gaoyang City, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even stronger.

He was afraid of Lin Feng, there was no doubt about this, but for more than half a month, in Xiyue City, he didn't eat dry rice for nothing!

Therefore, he was afraid of Lin Feng, but he had his own pride.

Hitting people without slapping their faces, scolding without dirty words, Han Zhitong heard the sound, his brows shook slightly, and his face was angry.

The Northern Expedition, Jiangnan, and Emperor Yan fought against him, which was a shame and stain in his life, which could not be washed away, and he would not deliberately wash it, but he would not allow others to sprinkle salt on his wounds.

The tiger generals beside him, Wang Xiaojie, Gao Cunxiao, and strategist Han Xitong looked at Wu Jieshao's back, and in his expression, he gradually had a murderous intention.

The Chu generals present were very unhappy with Wu Jieshao's arrogant words sarcastic about Han Zhitong.

Han Zhitong was angry, and still persuaded him with good words: "General Wu, Xiyue, and Gaoyang are related to the safety of Cai Guo, even if there are elite soldiers guarding it, don't be careless!" ”

At this time, Wu Jieshao's face was frosty, and he said coldly: "General Han, Xiyue City is the territory of Cai State, what should I do, Ben Shuai has his own opinions, Emperor Yan is powerful, and Ben Shuai is not a vegetarian."

In this battle of Xiyue City, as long as Xiyue City does not collapse from the inside, the Yan army will never want to break through the impregnable city, and the commander will personally wash away the shame in the Northern Expedition.

The general is a Chu general, if you want to preserve your strength, you can take the opportunity to lead the troops out of the south gate, return to the Chu State, and deploy defenses in the Chu State, otherwise, Hugh will have to C-hand Cai State affairs! ”

Wu Jieshao is afraid of Lin Feng, but Xiyue City is deployed, he has deduced many times, foolproof, recently, there has never been a Yan army mixed into the city, Yan cavalry is not good at attacking the city, facing the city with high walls and thick Xiyue City.

For Yan Jun, it is undoubtedly a gap that cannot be crossed.

On the contrary, a large number of Cai refugees entered the city, and the Chu army also entered the city, consuming a large amount of food every day, which made Wu Jieshao very unwelcome to the defeated army led by Han Zhitong.

What's more, if it weren't for the Yan army going south, the two armies of Cai and Chu would be fighting fiercely in the south.

Han Zhitong was sarcastically ridiculed by Wu Jieshao, and suddenly he was speechless.

He was a Chu general, and his prestige in the southern vassal states was higher than that of Wu Jieshao, but he fled into Xiyue City from the north, without much prestige, and was defeated before, and fled in a hurry, without carrying grain.

Temporarily borrowing in Xiyue City is indeed not suitable for Cai Guo's affairs without authorization.

When the Yan army went south, he still led his troops to stay in Xiyue City and resist the Yan army together with Wu Jieshao, hoping to control the war on the territory of Cai and avoid the destruction of Chu.

Otherwise, he would not be willing to stay in Xiyue City and be called by Wu Jieshao.

Wu and Han have their own thoughts, but Wu Jieshao is more upright, what is there, what to say, will not hide it.

Wu Jieshao was full of confidence, and during the rapid journey, a guard stepped on the night and quickly ran from the North Gate Street.

Arrived in front of Wu Jieshao and others, the short sword in his hand was propped up on the ground, panting and saluting Wu Jieshao, and stammered: "Great....handsome, there was a civil explosion in the city, the momentum was huge, there were thousands of people quickly attacking the north gate, and General Xiao led the troops to defend against the enemy at the north gate." ”

Civil explosions?

Hearing this, Wu Jieshao, Han Zhitong, and the generals Cai Chu present were all shocked.

A large number of displaced people were concentrated in Xiyue City, and Wu Jieshao did not hesitate to open a warehouse with military rations to provide grain, and won very high prestige among the displaced people.

How could this group of homeless people set off a civil explosion in Xiyue City?

For a moment, everyone present became silent, only Han Xitong took a deep breath and said exhaustively: "General Wu, uncle, do you remember how Jinyang City in the north was lost?" ”
