The city wall was crowded, and in the sound of fighting, Yang Lian rushed to the city with his soldiers. www.biquge.info At this time, Bao Xiurang's 500 reinforcements were struggling to climb the city, and many places had been broken through by Wu Yue's army, and the city was in chaos, blood was flowing everywhere, and if you were not careful, you would slip.

Yang Lian pulled out the long knife, rushed forward with Chen Tie and others, with the addition of this group of new forces, the Wu Yue people who were still very high just now were suddenly deflated, Yang Lian brandished the long knife, and killed two people in a row, under Yang Lian's strong offensive, the Tang soldiers were inspired and launched a wave of attacks, and the Wu Yue soldiers were driven off the city, and those who had no time to escape were killed.

Bao Xiurang's eyes widened, and he felt very uncomfortable as he watched the soldiers being driven down again. He still wanted to attack, but the news from the front line was that most of the ladders had been damaged, and it was obviously more difficult to capture Fuzhou City.

Bao Xiurang was in a dilemma, the lack of siege equipment made him fall short, but he was reluctant to give up, more than 300 people were killed in the battle, and other injuries of varying degrees were also suffered, such a loss he obviously could not accept. There are still more than 2,000 people around, but there is no doubt that it is impossible for a mere 2,000 people to capture Fuzhou City.

Bao Xiurang hesitated, let the soldiers rest first, and how to act next, he had to think about it.

Standing at the head of the city, Yang Lian looked at the place about a thousand steps ahead, where there were several flags fluttering, and Yang Lian saw it at a glance.

"Wu Yueren?" Yang Lian frowned.

Chen Tie snorted coldly and said, "They came quite quickly. ”

"Not unexpected." Yang Lian waved his hand and commanded the soldiers to be busy, cleaning up the corpses on the city wall. Due to the killing of Wu Yueren, more stone and wood need to be prepared.

Yang Lian ordered to go down, Chen Tie, Zhu Qi and others took the soldiers to work, Yang Lian looked outside the city, although he knew that the Wu Yue people would definitely kill after getting the news, but the Wu Yue people attacked the city in the early morning, so that the Tan did not prepare much, fortunately, the Wu Yue people lacked siege equipment, which fell short.

At present, Yang Lian does not know how many people Wu Yue has come, and he needs to make preparations for long-term resistance. While thinking about it, hurried footsteps sounded, and Yang Lian raised his head to see that it was Pan Sen who came in a hurry with a group of Fuzhou generals.

"Yang Jiedu, Wu Yuegou is here?" Pan Sen asked.

Yang Lian didn't care either, and said: "The Wuyue people are menacing, but fortunately, the soldiers fought to the death, so they barely repelled them." As he spoke, Yang Lian raised his hand, pointed to the dense Wuyue people outside the city, and said: "There should be two or three thousand Wuyue people here, but I don't know how many Wuyue people there will be in the future. ”

Pan Sen hurriedly arched his hand and said, "If Yang Jiedu is sent, he will not hesitate." ”

"Okay." Yang Lian said simply, smiled, stretched out his hand, patted Pan Sen's shoulder, and said, "With General Pan's words, this section is much more relieved." Alas, to tell the truth, before coming to Fuzhou in this section, arrangements had been made, but the soldiers and horses of Jianzhou were delayed due to events, and they could not arrive in Fuzhou until at least seven or eight days later. In the past few days, I have to rely on you to be able to protect Fuzhou City! ”

Yang Lian's heartfelt words made the Fuzhou army a little moved, after all, at this time, Yang Jiedu was able to say these words, which is enough to prove that he regarded everyone as a person who could only be trusted, and everyone hugged their fists one after another to express their loyalty. After gossiping, Yang Lian smiled and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

Yang Lian simply said his thoughts, everyone was originally the cadre of the Fuzhou Army, Yang Lian decided to let them still lead the old department, so that it was easy to command, but Yang Lian's authorization was limited, except for this part of the old department, other Fuzhou Army soldiers were not allowed to move, in addition, Yang Lian decided to personally command everyone. From Yang Lian down, it was Pan Sen, and Pan Sen was in charge of other Fuzhou army generals. After the order was finished, Yang Lian ordered Chen Tie to take Pan Sen and others to lead the old department, and he was still observing the situation at the head of the city.

The Wuyue people outside the city gathered together, and after more than an hour of fighting, the soldiers were hurrying up to recover their strength, and some soldiers were squatting on the ground and eating dry food. Bao Xiurang was not in the mood, he squatted on the ground, holding a branch in his hand, and paddled on the ground, if at this time, reinforcements from Fu'an County came, then he had enough troops to capture Fuzhou.

However, he also knew that although the commander of Fu'an County and him were in a competitive relationship, if it was profitable, he would naturally help him attack Fuzhou, and if there was no benefit, he would not come at all.

Moreover, what makes it difficult for Bao Xiu to decide is, where are the reinforcements in Fu'an County? If it is only a day or two away, then there is naturally a chance to attack Fuzhou, if it takes more than four or five days, I am afraid that the backyard of the Tang army will come, at that time, if you want to take Fuzhou, it is simply impossible, but will fall into a crisis, if the Tang army generals cut off the back road, I am afraid that these thousands of soldiers and horses will be broken here.

When Bao Xiu made a decision, a fast horse crossed the layers of hills, and finally arrived, the knight was sweaty, holding the token in his hand, and galloped all the way to the not far away of Bao Xiurang, this man held the token high and shouted loudly.

Bao Xiurang stood up and looked at the messenger. The envoy jumped off the war horse and hurried to Bao Xiurang, and said in a hoarse voice: "General Bao, you are humble and worthy of your mission. ”

Just when Bao Xiurang surprised the messenger's words, he took out a crumpled letter from his arms, the letter was already soaked with sweat, Bao Xiurang carefully opened the envelope, unfolded the letter, first glanced at the payment, nodded, and looked at the letter carefully.

After reading it in a hurry, Bao Xiu made his originally gloomy face show joy, he couldn't help but applaud, and said repeatedly: "Good, good!" ”

When Bao Sheng heard this, he rushed over and said, "Uncle, there is a happy event?" ”

Bao Xiurang laughed and said: "God really helps me, the king Tianyun, Hu Shangshu is wise, seeing the tricks of the Tang people, Hu Jiedu has already led 20,000 troops to the south to support." "Bao Xiurang's mouth of Hu Shangshu is Wu Yue military department Shangshu Hu Jinsi, this person is ninety years old, is the founding hero of Wu Yue, with the founding monarch of Wu Yue Qian Biao to fight in all directions, very popular with the army.

Hu Sijin lived a long life, but his eldest son did not live as long as him, the eldest son died two years ago at the age of 67, and the second son never entered the ranks. However, the Hu family Ding is prosperous and holds the military power of Wu Yueguo. Hu Sijin's favorite youngest son, Hu Qing, is only twenty years old, and with the protection of his ancestors, he is a commander at a young age. Later, he suppressed bandits in the Yuezhou area, and had some military merits, and was soon promoted to the envoy of the festival, which can be described as a prosperous official fortune.

Bao Xiurang knew that Hu Qing came with troops, which meant that he had to take a back seat for the credit of the Battle of Fuzhou this time, but Bao Xiurang, who was worried about the country and the people, didn't care, the country was broken, was his home still there?

Hu Qing led 20,000 troops, secretly rushed to Fu'an County, just stationed down, Bao Xiurang's letter arrived, Hu Qing made meritorious service, received the news, immediately asked the soldiers to prepare grain and grass, immediately went south. In addition to bringing 20,000 soldiers from Hangzhou, Hu Qing also transferred all the soldiers from Fu'an County, bringing the number of troops to 30,000. With so many troops, Bao Xiurang was full of confidence, and Hu Qing came all the way, and at this moment he was only more than fifty miles away from Fuzhou City, and he could rush to Fuzhou City in the afternoon.

In order to facilitate the siege, Bao Xiu let all the soldiers go out to cut down trees and make more siege equipment, except for leaving some soldiers to defend, Bao Xiu let all the other soldiers go out to cut down trees and make more siege equipment. The 30,000-strong army needed more ladders, and even if they were busy day and night, they couldn't make enough equipment in a short period of time.

Bao Xiurang had other plans, but he needed Hu Qing's approval.

Wu Yuejun was busy making ladders, in addition to rushing cars and other things, Yang Lian in Fuzhou City was also directing the soldiers to prepare for battle, his troops were insufficient, or the troops that could fight were insufficient, which gave Yang Lian a headache. Even if Yang Lian was the defender of the city, the number of troops needed was greatly reduced.

The stone squeals were transported to the head of the city and placed neatly. There are also a lot of things placed under the city walls, which can be accessed at any time. Yang Lian's troops were insufficient, so he hired a group of people and promised food. If you have milk, you are a mother, and many people got the news and rushed to help Yang Lian transport the equipment to defend the city. The power of the people is huge, and by the time it comes, Yang Lian's preparations are quite sufficient.

Yang Lian also found fire oil from the treasury, which made Yang Lian very happy, and with fire oil, his defensive ability was greatly enhanced. When Yang Lian was almost ready, suddenly, a soldier pointed to the outside of the city and said, "Yang Jiedu, look." ”

Yang Lian raised his head when he heard this, looked out of the city, and couldn't help frowning. Outside the city, countless black dots appeared in sight, which meant that Wu Yuejun had more people coming. What's even more outrageous is that Wu Yuejun actually relied on the advantage in numbers to set up a large camp not far from the city.

When Yang Lian saw this scene, he wanted to send troops to charge, but considering that the Tang army did not have too many cavalry, and the number was also at a disadvantage, he gave up. Outside the city, Wu Yue's soldiers and horses quickly set up a camp, first built a simple camp, and then repaired and built a solid camp.

"Hu?" Yang Lian was far away, and he saw the flags fluttering in the large camp of Wu Yue's army, which couldn't help but be a little strange. He knows a little about Wu Yueguo's situation, and the most famous person surnamed Hu is Hu Jinsi, but he is too old to lead the troops, could it be said that it is his children and grandchildren who lead the troops?

Chen Tie was on the side and said, "Yang Jiedu, looking at the scale of Wu Yuejun's camp, there are at least twenty or thirty thousand people. ”

Yang Lian narrowed his eyes, looked at Wu Yuejun's camp, and said, "There are only a lot of people, and this time Fuzhou City is going to experience a fierce battle." The order is sent down, and all soldiers who have the strength to fight must be ready at any time. ”

Chen Tie responded, at this time, Cha Wenhui hurried over with Zhang Wenyi, Zhang Wenying and others, and couldn't help but gasp when he saw the endless Wu Yue army camp outside the city. If the more than 10,000 people of the Tang army are healthy, it will not be difficult to defend the city. However, there are only a few hundred people in good health today, and even if some lightly injured soldiers are included, there are only more than 4,000 people, and most of the soldiers can be said to have no combat effectiveness.

If Wu Yue's army wants to attack the city, how can they stop them? (To be continued.) )
