Qian Wenfeng stroked his beard and asked, "Wu Shangshu, what can you do?" ”

Wu Cheng turned around, looked at Yu Hangcheng, stretched out his finger, nodded, and said, "Since the Tang army relies on people's houses, it is better to use fire attack." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Fire attack?" Hearing this, Qian Wenfeng stood up, shook his head, and said, "No! ”

"Why not?" Wu Cheng turned his head, looked at Qian Wenfeng with an excited face, and said hatefully: "These people, since they were occupied by Yang Lian, actually took refuge with peace of mind, which shows that they are no longer Wu Yue, but lackeys of the Tang people, what does it matter if you kill them?" ”

Qian Wenfeng waved his hand and said: "It was the king's decision to give up at the beginning, they are all helpless people, what can they do?" If you want to burn Yuhangcheng, this section is resolutely opposed. ”

Wu Cheng sneered twice and said, "Qian Jiedu, do you mean to oppose the king's decision?" ”

Qian Wenfeng said: "Wu Shangshu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Wu Yanfu saw that the two were about to quarrel, and hurriedly said: "Qian Jiedu, Wu Shangshu, the biggest problem now is to conquer Yuhang, both of them are calm and calm. ”

Qian Wenfeng said proudly: "Conquer Yuhang, that's for sure, but if you want to burn Yuhang, you won't be able to do it." ”

"So what is the way that Qian Jiedu can conquer Yuhang?" Wu Cheng asked.

"It always takes some time." Qian Wenfeng said that it would indeed take time for the Tang army to move forward step by step.

Wu Cheng smiled, Qian Wenfeng was the commander of the attack on Yuhang, they were all members of the Qian family, Wu Cheng could just move his tongue, there was no need to stiffen the relationship with Qian Wenfeng.

Qian Wenfeng pondered for a moment, and then gave the order to go down, and the three armies continued to attack, but this time the speed was much slower, and it was mainly based on crossbowmen, and they advanced step by step. At the same time, he sent people to surround Yuhang City.

"Wu Yuejun is attacking again." Yang Lian stood on the tower, carefully observing the situation, he groaned, what other tricks would Qian Wenfeng use?

Wu Yue's army advanced again, very slowly along the way, first using crossbowmen to open the way, suppressing the Tang army's offensive, and then the foot soldiers rushed up without fear of death, and began hand-to-hand combat with the Tang army. The casualties of the Tang army began to increase, and after two hours of fighting, Wu Yue's army only advanced more than two hundred steps, and the sky gradually darkened again.

"What's going on with Qian Wenfeng, he didn't go all out." Yang Lian on the tower had a hint of doubt, in his opinion, although the offensive of Wu Yue's army was quite fierce, it did not reach the point of going all out, and Qian Wenfeng had been stationed outside the city, very cautious.

"Yang Jiedu, wait any longer, I'm afraid Commander Zhu's side will be tight." The pro-soldier said.

Yang Lian thought for a moment and said: "Don't be anxious, Qian Wenfeng should still have a killing move, only when he shows his minions, will it be the time for our army to turn from defense to attack." The order was given to go down and withdraw three hundred paces. ”

"Whoa!" A herald responded, stepped aside, whispered a few words to the standard-bearer, who waved the flag and gave the order. Taking advantage of the gap in the battle, the Tang army began to retreat backwards, more than 300 steps away, there was still a line of defense, if this line was abandoned, there would only be the line of defense of the county government.

After Yang Lian finished speaking, he began to eat, looking calm. This gave the soldiers confidence, and after eating a few cakes, the soldiers stood on the tower and carefully observed the surroundings.

It was about to get dark, Wu Cheng was a little impatient, although he had already invaded Yuhang, but the war had not progressed for a long time, which was very bad. First, the Tang army has built Yuhang City very strongly, and second, the Tang army has a conspiracy, when will it be launched? In terms of time, the sooner you attack Yuhang County and the sooner Yang Lian is captured, this variable will be greatly reduced.

"Qian Jiedu, it's getting dark, let's burn the city! For the sake of the country, what is the pity of dying a few people? Their deaths were worth it. Wu Cheng couldn't help but persuade again.

Qian Wenfeng's face was cloudy, he didn't sleep last night, and he had almost stayed up for a day at this time, he was old and a little unbearable. Bloodshot eyes glanced at Wu Yanfu and said, "Zheng Guogong, what do you think?" ”

Wu Yanfu shook his head and said, "Let me raise food, it's okay to do some small things, I'm afraid I asked the wrong person about the war money." ”

Qian Wenfeng paced slowly, pressing his temples with his hands, hoping to calm down, it was not easy to capture Yuhang, he had known it for a long time, but a day has passed, except for last night's advance, today's progress is only three hundred steps, if you want to completely take Yuhang, when will this be?

"Report!" The herald came in a hurry and said, "Qian Jiedu, the Tang army has retreated." ”

"Retreat?" Wu Yanfu was the first to react and said, "Qian Jiedu, it seems that the Tang Army can't support it." ”

Wu Cheng also said: "This is a good thing, the Tang army can't support it anymore." ”

"Slow, let Ben think about it!" Qian Wenfeng waved his hand, he felt that the Tang Army's retreat was wrong, because just in front of the half-pillar incense, the Tang Army's resistance was still very strong, and it was impossible to exhaust it at all. Could it be that the Don Army deliberately retreated? What is their purpose, to attract their attention?

When Qian Wenfeng thought about it carefully, Wu Yanfu and Wu Cheng persuaded on the side, especially Wu Cheng thought that after a day of fighting, the Tang army could no longer support it, and at this time, it was necessary to take advantage of the victory to pursue and recover Yuhang City in one fell swoop.

Qian Wenfeng thought for a while, he knew that this matter was not so simple, but the army had already invaded Yuhang, what choice could he have? Abandon? It's impossible! He can only attack, attack, and attack again now, knowing that he will destroy the Tang Army, or be defeated by the Tang Army.

In order to grasp the military situation in time, Qian Wenfeng decided to move the command post to the city, he was stationed on a tall building near the city gate, more than 500 soldiers guarded around, Qian Wenfeng planned to show his attitude in this way, strengthen the confidence of the three armies, after all, this battle, it will take too much time.

"Huh? Qian Wenfeng entered the city. Yang Lian stood on the tower, saw Qian Wenfeng's military flag shaking, and entered the city again, and couldn't help but say.

At this time, Li Ping, the head of the household, walked over with a worried face, the war went through a night and a day, under such a ferocious offensive of the Wu Yue army, the Tang army was defeated and retreated, and now it has lost more than half of the city, I am afraid that in another day, this Yuhang City will change owners.

"Yang Jiedu, Wu Yuejun's offensive is so fierce, what should I do?" Li Ping said that his eyes were a little puffy, and he didn't rest well at first glance.

Yang Lian didn't mind, knowing that Li Ping was a literati after all, and he didn't know Yang Lian's plan this time, his worries were normal. Yang Lian pulled Li Ping to the edge of the tower, pointed to the faintly visible banner of Wu Yuejun, and said, "Li Shilang, look, Qian Wenfeng has already entered the city. ”

Li Ping glanced at Yang Lian in surprise, and when he saw him so calm, he felt strange in his heart, and said: "Yang Jiedu, Qian Wenfeng has already invaded Yuhang, so naturally he wants to be stationed in." ”

Yang Lian saw that he was panicked and displeased, so he said: "Li Shilang, don't worry, Qian Wenfeng has come in, and he has fallen for the plan of this section, and it will be tonight to break the enemy." ”

Li Ping looked at Yang Lian carefully, and saw that he didn't look like a fake, so he said suspiciously: "Yang Jiedu, will the plan be released?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the front gradually lit up, it turned out that Wu Yuejun lit the torch and prepared to attack at night, it seems that Qian Wenfeng also knew that he could not wait any longer, the longer the street fighting between the two sides, the more difficult the situation became, the more strange the situation, and the final result was uncertain.

Soon, Wu Yuejun held the torch and moved forward slowly, Yang Lian stood on a high place, and could only see the torch moving, and the bright piece in front of him was imprinted into his eyes, and he actually felt a little pain.

Li Ping's face changed and said, "Yang Jiedu, do you have any plans to use quickly, Wu Yuejun has already begun to attack." ”

Yang Lian smiled, comforted Li Ping, and said, "Li Shilang, don't be impatient. As he spoke, he ordered his soldiers to light three torches.

The three torches on the tower were very conspicuous, and Qian Wenfeng, who was far away in the city tower, also saw it, he squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully, and said, "General Zhao, you said that there is Yang Lian's command post?" ”

Zhao Chengtai nodded and said, "Exactly, I have attacked several times today, but the Tang army is very well guarded, and the last general has never succeeded." ”

"There is Yang Lian's command post, and it is reasonable to be heavily guarded. Now that our army is on the offensive, General Zhao, the heavy responsibility of attacking the command post of the Tang Army will be handed over to you. Qian Wenfeng knew that if Yang Lian was captured first, the Tang army's plan would be aborted, and Zhao Chengtai was a rare fierce general in Wu Yue, and this important task could only be handed over to him.

Zhao Chengtai nodded and said, "Qian Jiedu rest assured, the last general will definitely capture Yang Lian alive!" As he spoke, he glanced at the more than 100 strong men who had been carefully selected, and shouted: "Go, in the future, we must capture Yang Lian in a battle and raise the prestige of Wu Yue!" ”

The strong men all shouted in unison, followed Zhao Chengtai to Yang Lian's command post, in order to achieve a surprise effect, they did not light the torches, but took advantage of the moonlight to move forward, at the same time, the Tang army also received Yang Lian's signal, more than fifty soldiers stood at the water gate, began to undress.

After taking off their clothes, the soldiers jumped into the water and carried on improvised rafts, on which were placed many clay pots, all filled with fire oil. The soldiers quickly entered the moat and poured fire oil along the moat, which was lighter and soon floated to the surface.

It took a full meal for the Tang soldiers to dump all the oil in the clay pot into the moat, and then quickly went ashore. And they blocked the entrance to the water with wood to prevent the oil from pouring into the city. At this time, Wu Yue's army had already attacked the Tang army's defense line, arrows rained down, they couldn't see it in the night, they just shot indiscriminately, the dense arrow feathers still caused a lot of damage, and the screams of the soldiers of the two armies came and went.

The kung fu of this meal made Li Ping sit on pins and needles, he kept walking around, looking around, there were more and more torches in the city, which meant that there were more and more Wu Yuejun, he was still young and didn't want to die, so he was very anxious.

"Yang Jiedu, can't you start yet?" Li Ping asked.

"Li Shilang, the time is coming, and soon you will be able to see a good show!" Yang Lian said.

As soon as the words fell, at a water gate in Yuhang City, the Tang soldiers lit the fire oil, which spread rapidly, flying at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the moat was completely ignited in just half a meal.

The fire was very big, and the entire Yuhang City looked like it was bathed in a sea of fire, and the firelight reflected Yang Lian's face and Li Ping's face.

Li Ping glanced at Yang Lian in surprise, his voice trembled a little, and said, "Yang Jiedu, this is your plan?" Li Ping was very worried, will this fire burn in the city? If that's the case, the whole of Yuhang will be burned, where will he flee to?

"It's just part of the plan." Yang Lian was still calm, pointed ahead, and said, "Don't worry, Ben Jiang has already prepared, and the fire will only burn around the moat." "Yang Lian's oil is not much, this time it was all used, at most it can only be burned for two hours, but this is enough, two hours of time is enough to change the situation on the battlefield.

Li Ping took a deep breath and calmed down his heart, and then said: "Yang Jiedu, although the moat is burning, it can't hit the offensive of Wu Yue's army. ”

Yang Lian's eyes were blazing, and he said: "The brave wins when we meet on the narrow road, and now it depends on who is braver." ”

The moat caught fire, and Qian Wenfeng, who was standing on the city tower, felt the raging fire, and couldn't help but take a few more steps to the side of the inner city wall.

Wu Yanfu only felt that his eyes were about to be blinded, the fire was very big, and the flames brought huge heat, which made him a little unable to hold on.

Wu Cheng pursed his lips and said, "Qian Jiedu, you see, Yang Lian used fire to attack. He was still a little dissatisfied, if Qian Wenfeng had used his tactics, the Tang army would have been roasted into a roast chicken, ruined a Yuhang City, destroyed the invading Tang army, and saved Wu Yueguo, in his opinion, it was still very cost-effective.

Qian Wenfeng didn't speak, he was pondering, Yang Lian burned the moat, but it didn't have much effect, it was nothing more than cutting off the connection between inside and outside the city, people from outside couldn't get in, and people inside couldn't get out. Qian Wenfeng is not worried about this, because he led most of the army in, and his strength is not weak, even if the reinforcements can't come in, he is not afraid of the Tang army. Besides, how long do these fires burn? Once the fire is extinguished, Wu Yue's reinforcements will still be able to enter the city.

However, Yang Lian, as a general of the Southern Expedition and the Northern War, once killed Bao Xiurang, a famous general of Wu Yueguo, proving that he is not a stupid person, he must have a deep meaning in doing this, but what is the deep meaning? What is Yang Lian's purpose?

Qian Wenfeng thought for a while, but never figured it out, and at this time, Wu Yuejun had already engaged with the Tang army in close combat, and the two sides fought together fearlessly. The fire in the moat had a certain impact on the Wu Yue army, because they didn't know what was going on outside, on the other hand, the Tang army, due to Yang Lian's prior deployment, they were much calmer.

The fire of the moat lit up almost the entire sky, which provided Zhao Chengtai with good conditions, he could observe the terrain relatively clearly, and went straight to Yang Lian's command post. Along the way, Zhao Chengtai had seven or eight battles with the Tang army, most of him was a touch and left, he didn't want to fight, capture the thief and capture the king first, his target was Yang Lian.

As for the fire, Zhao Chengtai, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, is not worried, Yang Lian will never burn himself to death!

After some fighting, the hundred people around Zhao Chengtai had already lost some of them, and only more than seventy people followed him. Zhao Chengtai carefully observed the situation, and he found that he was not far from the tower.
