The Xianbei people and the Xian people have their own ghosts, and they don't know that no matter what they do, Ran Min is ready to fight.

Early this morning, Ran Min received a message.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago, Brother Zhu's subordinates intercepted a person, this person's whereabouts are strange, it seems to be Shi Jian's subordinates!" Zhang Mufeng said and handed a letter to Ran Min.

"Did you catch someone?" Ran Min asked as he opened the letter.

"I don't think I caught it! Ran away by that guy! ”

Ran Min frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure: "Zhu Song's subordinates are all the elite of the wolf cavalry, and that person can still run away!" What does Zhu Song do to eat! ”

"Your Majesty is angry! Brother Zhu guessed that this person was one of the eight masters under Shi Jian! ”

"The letter said that this person was going to Xiangguo from the direction of Youzhou! In other words, it is very likely that this person has returned to Xiangguo now, and Shi Jian already knows that the Xianbei people will send troops to rescue him! ”

"That's how it should be!" Zhang Mufeng responded.

Ran Min burned the letter and said slowly: "In this way, Shi Jian will defend Yecheng and wait for reinforcements!" ”

After determining the intentions of the Qian people and the Xianbei people, Ran Min couldn't help but think about his deployment again. The soldiers and horses left on the east and west sides to block the Xianbei people are only 30,000 people, and the Xianbei people have more than 200,000 soldiers and horses on the two roads combined, and these 30,000 will not last long.

"If there is no interruption, you will be disturbed!" Ran Min muttered to himself, raised his head and ordered: "Pass the order, attack the city early tomorrow morning!" ”

Zhang Mufeng was stunned for a moment, and responded: "The last general will take the order!" ”

In the case of being about to be attacked by the enemy, Ran Min did not hesitate to choose to cut through the chaos with a quick knife, of course, the siege may just be used to cover up Ran Min's true intentions.

At this moment, Li Chang and others have led the army to the north, early the next morning, Ran Min personally supervised the formation, tens of thousands of troops suddenly came to the city, launched a fierce attack on Xiangguo, Xiangguo soldiers who suffered in cold and hunger, faced like a tiger down the mountain Ran Min's army, almost all collapsed.

"Your Highness! Oh no! Ran Min's soldiers and horses suddenly attacked the city! Xiangguo is in a critical situation! "The men came in a hurry.

Shi Jian had already changed his armor, raised his hand and slapped him, and scolded angrily: "What are you panicking about!" Go upstairs with this king! As long as there is still a breath of air, Ran Min's people must not be allowed to step into Xiangguo City! ”

Under the fierce offensive of Ran Min's men, a few soldiers finally climbed the tower, and the advantage began to tilt towards Ran Min's side. However, under the leadership of Shi Jian, Xiangguo used all the men and horses that could be mobilized to defend, and those soldiers who climbed the city tower were soon besieged and killed by the Hu people, and the advantage that Ran Min's army had just gained was instantly gone.

Ran Min's sudden attack was beyond Shi Jian's expectations, but this undoubtedly sent a signal to Shi Jian, and Ran Min also knew the plan of the Xianbei people to go south, so he couldn't wait for a decisive battle.

The siege lasted for nearly a day, this was an unprecedented crowd tactic, Ran Min's soldiers and horses were like a sea tide, wave after wave, Shi Jian had been sticking to the city from beginning to end, with many wounds, but he did not give an inch, repelling Ran Min's wave after wave of offensives.

Ran Min, who was supervising the battle from afar, was very heavy when he saw the Hu people who fought back so fiercely, after all, if they didn't break the Xiangguo for a day, they wouldn't be at ease for a day.

"Your Majesty, our soldiers have been rushing for a day! Not an inch of land has been gained, and many brothers have been damaged! Please order Mingjin to withdraw his troops! Zhang Mufeng persuaded.

Ran Min probably felt that it was futile to go on like this, and finally raised his hand slightly and commanded: "Mingjin!" ”

"Yes!" When Zhang Mufeng heard this, he immediately asked his subordinates to pass the order.

"The order, the army advanced to the encirclement of Xiangguo, and stopped two miles away! I want Shijian to sleep and eat, like a fish in the throat! Ran Min said coldly.

Ran Min's order pushed more than 100,000 troops to the city of Xiangguo, two miles away, and the fast horse arrived with no more than a soak in urine, standing on the city tower, and even counting how many camp tents and how many bonfires were in the camp outside the Qing City.

The Hu people, who had been suffering from hunger and cold for more than ten days, after experiencing the tragic fighting during the day, saw the campfire tents all over the mountains, like stars in the night, and they couldn't help but tremble their legs. After a day of hard fighting, although Xiangguo is still in the hands of Shi Jian, but they also paid a heavy price, in terms of courage and good fighting, Ran Min's soldiers and horses are indeed better than them, if it were not for the unusually strong city of Xiangguo, under Ran Min's fierce offensive, the general city would have already fallen.

"Brethren! Cheer up! I also open my eyes when I sleep at night! Don't be attacked by Ran Min's people, you don't know yet! While leading people to inspect, Wang Luan shouted to the soldiers at the head of the city.

At this moment, many of the Hu soldiers in the city have been injured, but no one dares to slack off, because they all know that as long as one is not careful, Ran Min's swords and guns will kill them.

This night, the night was hazy, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, Ran Min did not sneak attack, but Shi Jian and his soldiers and horses spent the whole night in anxiety, they were almost always open-eyed, staring at the camp in the distance for anything unusual.

In the early morning, when the sky was just dawning, many Hu people were still half-asleep and half-awake, and on the hillside not far away, there was a sudden nervous and rapid drum sound.

"The Wei army is attacking the city! The Wei army is attacking the city! "One of the soldiers at the lookout was the first to notice the situation.

Everyone lay on the head of the city to take a look, and sure enough, Ran Min's soldiers and horses were like a tide, overwhelmingly pressing up. Storming carts, ladders, trebuchets, etc., all started. Rows of flying ladders were erected on the city walls, and agile soldiers climbed quickly in an attempt to climb the tower.

Hu Ren reacted and hurriedly threw the Rolling Wood Thunder Stone, trying to smash the climber down. And under the city wall, Ran Min's archers have long been in place, and many of the Hu people who showed their faces had not had time to throw out the rolling wood thunder stone in their hands, and they had already been shot by Ran Min's archers and fell to the ground.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! The Hu people at the head of the city hurriedly shouted.

As soon as the words fell, rows of Hu archers took turns to go into battle, facing Ran Min's archer position under the city head is a round of shooting, although most of the arrows shot out were blocked by the archers arranged by Ran Min, but they briefly suppressed the offensive of Ran Min's soldiers and horses.

Taking this opportunity, the Rolling Wood Thunder Stone finally had a chance to smash out, and many soldiers who were about to successfully ascend the city tower were smashed down alive.

The strong attack failed, Ran Min suspended the crowd tactics, and just when Hu Ren was about to breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly, disaster fell from the sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Knock ......"

One after another, like thunder, hundreds of stones smashed on the city, and in some places the city bricks were smashed open, and the unlucky Hu people were smashed into flesh on the spot. At the same time, the crossbowmen of Ran Min's army pressed up, and thousands of crossbow machines fired in a volley, and the crossbow arrows shot out were mostly half an inch thick, and those Hu people who couldn't dodge, two or three people were directly pierced by a crossbow arrow and nailed to the city.

"Hold on! Be sure to hold on! Wang Luan hid in the shadows and shouted to his subordinates.

After the attack of the trebuchets and crossbows was over, the chariots began to attack the city, and the soldiers who climbed the ladder charged again. The Hu people were almost stunned by Ran Min's subordinates, and the rhythm of the war seemed to be always in Ran Min's hands.
