After arranging the soldiers, Wang Song was not idle, he added fuel and vinegar to everything that happened at the east gate of Chang'an City, and sent someone to report it to Qian Tong. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wang Song did this in order to attract Qian Tong's attention, and then let him send troops to support.

Wang Song's army surrounded the city, Zhao Shuo's army guarded the city wall, every day the two armies looked at each other, scolded angrily, and shouted one after another, but the besieged city was still besieged, and the defenders were still defending the city. Although Wang Song, Wu Lin Daishan, Pei Manzan, and Liu Meng all excluded the harassment of several hundred troops, they did not have the slightest impact on the entire confrontation situation.

In this way, the two sides faced off for a week, and neither launched an offensive. Siege warfare turned into a confrontation battle.

However, the sudden arrival of reinforcements from the Qi army completely changed the current pattern. After receiving Wang Song's battle report, Qian Tong immediately sent 8,000 troops and horses to support.

After learning that the Qi army had received reinforcements, Li Zhong, who was guarding the east gate, left the city and came to Zhao Shuo's mansion.

"Lord Wang, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good." As soon as he entered the door, Li Zhong shouted.

"What's the matter? What makes you so anxious? Seeing Li Zhong in a hurry, Zhao Shuo asked.

"The Qi army has come to reinforcements. There are almost 10,000 people. Li Zhong's face was gloomy, and he replied urgently.

"Ten thousand reinforcements?" Zhao Shuo asked sideways.

"Yes!" Li Zhong nodded. "Even if it's less than 10,000, it's pretty much the same."

Zhao Shuo pondered, the Qi army had another 10,000 people, and now the Qi army outside the city was about 25,000 people, and the team defending the city was about 7,000 people. 7,000 against 25,000, a ratio of one to three. If it is a head-to-head battle, there is absolutely no chance of winning, relying on Chang'an City, there is still a glimmer of life.

It's just that Wang Song got so many reinforcements at once, I don't know what to do.

If there is still a confrontation, Zhao Shuo will naturally be happy, but if Wang Song relies on a large number of people and the whole army attacks the city, then Chang'an City will be dangerous.

"You go back first, carefully observe the movements of the Jin army, and once you find that the Jin army has a tendency to attack the city, you will report it immediately." Zhao Shuo said to Li Zhong.

"Yes!" Li Zhong also knew that the matter was urgent, and after saluting, he immediately returned to the east gate city wall.

"Grandpa Feng!" After Li Zhong left, Zhao Shuo looked at Gonggong Feng behind him. "You go to the north, west, and south gates to tell Lin Feng, Li Zhong, and Xuanhao, and let them pay close attention to the movements of the Qi army, and don't take the enemy lightly."

"Yes, Lord Wang, the old slave will do it." Gonggong Feng bowed and left.

"Fluttershy." After Grandpa Feng leaves, Zhao Shuo says to Fluttershy again. "You will recruit Liu Zheng immediately, I have something to ask him."

"Yes, lord, the slave and maid will do it." Fluttershy salutes and leaves.

It doesn't take long for Liu Zheng to be brought over by Fluttershy.

"The last general, Liu Zheng, meet the prince." As soon as he entered the door, Liu Zheng bowed his head and saluted.

"Get up!" Zhao Shuo said lightly.

After Liu Zheng got up, Zhao Shuo continued. "Liu Zheng, how is the arsenal doing!"

"Lord Qiqi, everything is normal in the arsenal, and all kinds of weapons have not been delayed." Liu Zheng replied.

"How many muskets were produced, and how many more small shells?" Zhao Shuo asked.

"There are two more muskets and more than thirty more small shells." Liu Zheng replied.

Zhao Shuo frowned, it has been more than ten days, there are only two more muskets, and more than thirty more small cannonballs, no matter how you say it, it is too slow.

"Lord Wang, the last general also learned some gossip, I don't know if I should say it?" Liu Zheng frowned when he saw Zhao Shuo and said in a low voice.

"What's the news, let's hear it!" Zhao Shuo said.

"This news may not be accurate......" Liu Zheng didn't say the news, and first laid the groundwork.

"Say it! The true and false will be evaluated. Zhao Shuo interrupted Liu Zheng.

"Lord Wang, the last general heard that Shaanzhou had fallen, and He Qi, who was guarding, and the first soldiers were all killed. Fang Yunsheng, Zhe Yueying, and Yan Wu who rescued were defeated. After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he lowered his head.

"Source!" After Zhao Shuo heard this, he frowned and asked.

"It came from outside the city, and it is not clear to the general who passed it on." Liu Zheng replied.

"In this way, you send someone to inquire and see who spread these rumors, and if you catch these rumors, you will be killed." Zhao Shuo ordered.

"Yes, I'll do it!" Liu Zheng saluted and left.

As soon as Liu Zheng left, Zhao Shuo's face turned cold, if this rumor is true, it is very bad.

Although Shaanzhou is not a big city, after the fall, it is really not good news for Zhao Shuo.

In addition, He Qi and the others who guarded were all killed, and Fang Yunsheng, Zhe Yueying, Yan Wu and others who rescued were all defeated, and this series of defeats was an absolutely devastating blow to the morale of Zhao Shuo's army.

But Zhao Shuo still has a doubt, that is, has Shaanzhou really been captured? With such a big news, no one came to report it? This in itself is not normal. Could it be that the Qi army besieging Chang'an also arranged a layer of interception on the periphery?

If that's the case, they caught the person who came to report the news, and it stands to reason that if they let him in, the blow to Zhao Shuo's army would be even greater!

But now, the news that Liu Zheng got turned out to be from an unknown person. It's incredible.

Shaanzhou! Although there are not many people who defend, there are three people to rescue, such as Zhi Yueying, Fang Yunsheng, and Yan Wu, it stands to reason that they should not fall for a while.

Besides, Mo Qi has already gone north to inform Ju Zheng that once Ju Zheng goes south with the Zhejia army, the crisis in Shaanzhou should be resolved.

After some analysis, Zhao Shuo came to a conclusion, that is, it is very likely that Shaanzhou was not lost, and this lost news was deliberately spread by the Qi army to confuse the defenders of Chang'an.

Liu Zheng said that the news had just come in from outside, and Li Zhonglai reported that the Qi army had just come to reinforce the troops.

As soon as the reinforcements of the Qi army arrived, the news reached Chang'an City! This has to make people wonder if there must be a connection between the two.

"It seems that this is a ploy that Qi Jun played for me!" After straightening it out, Zhao Shuo laughed.

Subsequently, Zhao Shuo summoned all the civil and military generals in Chang'an City, and then explained his analysis, and then issued an order to everyone, "Whoever dares to publicize the news of the fall of Shaanzhou will be killed." ’

Although the generals had doubts in their hearts, they still obediently carried out the order. In the next few days, people were killed from time to time in Chang'an City. This made the people of Chang'an City panic, and the people kept asking to leave Chang'an and take refuge in other places.

Zhao Shuo didn't expect that things would turn out like this. The Qi army outside the city still did not attack, but the siege of Chang'an was close. The people of the city, for unknown reasons, asked to leave.

Internal and external troubles were placed in front of Zhao Shuo, and Chang'an City fell into a crisis of rumors. (To be continued.) )
