Chapter 213: Yan Rou's Decision

The next day, the majestic sea still appeared under the city, still fighting non-stop, and it seemed that he would not stop if he did not compete with Zhang He.

On the other hand, Zhang He didn't even have the interest to talk to Xiong Kuohai, and finally simply ignored him, but secretly sneered in his heart, this Tang Jun really regarded him as a fool.

In the past few days, he has continuously sent scouts to the Tang army camp to investigate, and what he saw was still that the Tang army was constantly digging tunnels, for which he had prepared a strategy to break the enemy, as long as the Tang army dug to the city, then it was the time for him to take the initiative to attack.

Just when Zhang He thought he knew the timing of the Tang Army, Yan Rou of Guangyang County was facing a tragic battle.

Xue Rengui, who was originally in Zhuo County, arrived in Jixian County before noon the next day after a night of rapid marching, at this time Jixian County had been approached by Luo Cheng's troops, but due to the lack of troops, Luo Cheng simply besieged Jixian on three sides, and did not seem to attack the city.

Hearing the scout's report, the general Xue Rengui arrived, Luo Cheng immediately went out of the camp to greet him, and at the same time handed over the command of the army to Xue Rengui.

"Blatantly, what's going on in the city right now?" Xue Rengui sat down at the head of the handsome tent, looked at Luo Cheng below and asked.

Luo Cheng arched his hand and said: "General Hui, Yan Rou's headquarters has already been prepared, since the last general bypassed Anle County, he rushed to Jixian County non-stop, he wanted to take it by surprise, taking advantage of the lack of garrison of the Jin army, to attack Jixian, but the defenders here seem to have already been prepared, there are 30,000 troops in the city, and the materials to defend the city are extremely sufficient, so the last general can only besiege but not attack. ”

After Xue Rengui heard this, he nodded and said: "This is not blatant and blatant, not only Yan Rou, but even Zhang He of Zhuo County has already taken precautions, and we are a little underestimated by the generals of the Jin army." ”

Then Xue Rengui looked at Luo Cheng and continued: "Then Yan Rou had any intention of breaking through? ”

Luo Cheng shook his head and frowned again. said: "For several days, the defenders in the city have not moved, and it seems that they ...... They are waiting for rescue. ”

Xue Rengui smiled disdainfully after hearing this, now Youbeiping has become a pot of porridge, and they were originally suddenly attacked, and it will take at least three days for the reinforcements from the Jin Kingdom to arrive, and with these three days, it is enough for them to take Jixian.

Even if the reinforcements from the Jin State arrived, the reinforcements from their Tang State would arrive in three days.

"General, what are you going to do now?" Luo Cheng asked.

"Attack, we must take Jixian County within three days." Xue Rengui said coldly.

This is also a last resort, they did not have too long to grind, once Zhang He of Zhuo County found out that they were besieging Ji County and led troops to help, then it would definitely fall short.

Knock Knock......

Xue Rengui and the more than 20,000 soldiers who came immediately entered the battle after a brief rest.

The city wall of Jixian County is not tall, and Luo Cheng has already prepared the ladder for the siege, so the nearly 10,000 soldiers who are besieging the city slowly move towards the city wall with the beat of the drum.

"Kill!"

There was no nonsense on both sides, accompanied by the sound of war drums, directly swords and soldiers, screams and the smell of blood, immediately filled this world.

The battle was fierce, the city was full of corpses, and the blood flowed like a river, and this thin city wall had become a huge meat grinder.

After a morning of offensive and defensive battles, when the sun rose to its highest in the sky, Fang temporarily rested.

In the big tent of the Tang army, Xue Rengui and Luo Cheng and other generals sat in the tent, Xue Rengui's face was not very good-looking at this time, they had lost 3,000 soldiers and horses in a morning's siege, although the casualties of the Jin army in the city were similar, but according to this battle loss ratio, I am afraid they would have to pay a greater price.

Luo Cheng on the side couldn't help but say: "General, the last general will personally lead people to the siege in the afternoon." ”

Xue Rengui glanced at Luo Cheng, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's rest for an hour first, and after an hour, I will be the vanguard and personally lead people to attack the city." ”

In Jixian County, Yan Rou also sat in the house with an iron face, this morning's battle, the Tang Army left a deep impression on him, those people were simply a group of crazy people, and they were completely fatal when attacking the city, and in just half a day, he had already suffered more than 3,000 casualties.

Moreover, he also saw Xue Rengui's banner, which means that Zhang He's department is very likely to have been destroyed, or deceived by Xue Rengui, and next, he can only hope that Zhang He can regroup and come to the rescue as soon as possible, or the reinforcements from the right Beiping direction will arrive as soon as possible, if he really can't wait for reinforcements. He could only give up Jixian.

Pinning his hopes on others is not a wise move after all, and the next thing he has to consider is how to get out of the battlefield and preserve his strength on his own.

In the afternoon, Luo Cheng's attack was even more violent than in the morning, and he was even about to reach the head of the city, but in the end, because the follow-up forces were not superior, he was killed and retreated, and the defense line of the Jin army was too strong, even if one was broken through, Yan Rou was still able to find a fighter and repel the soldiers who had landed on the head of the city.

The battle in the afternoon was far more tragic than in the morning, with nearly 10,000 casualties on both sides, and rivers of blood flowing, talking about this environment, drops of bright red blood flowed on the city wall, making the city wall bloody red.

At night, Yan Rou, who was physically and mentally exhausted, lay on the bed, constantly thinking about the next battle.

Judging from the current situation, continuing to defend is tantamount to digging his own grave, so he must break through next, but where to break through is also a difficult problem.

According to the arrangement of the soldiers and horses of the Tang State, only the defense in the north was slightly weak.

"Northern ......," Yan Rou muttered, not knowing what she was thinking.

The next day, Yan Rou's resistance was still fierce, but there were already big holes in the defense of the city, and the Tang army almost took the city.

And in Zhuo County, for three days in a row, the majestic sea has never stopped coming to fight, and it has become more and more frequent, and the movements have become bigger and bigger, as if it is trying its best to hide something.

Zhang He at the head of the city, looking at the majestic sea under the city, was like looking at a monkey jumping around, the sneer on the corner of his mouth never left his face, and at the same time, he calculated the progress of the Tang Army digging tunnels in his heart.

Suddenly, Zhang He felt that something was wrong, Tang Jun's intentions were too obvious, giving people the feeling that he was acting, but out of caution, Zhang He still did not lead his troops to investigate, but quietly appeared at the head of the city in the evening, staring at the direction of the Tang army's camp.

After a while, the more Zhang He looked, the more angry he became, he was deceived by the Tang Army, where is the Tang Army here There are 30,000 people, I'm afraid it is only 5,000 now.

"Not good!" After the anger, Zhang He was suddenly startled, he thought of Yan Rou in Jixian County, Xue Rengui left, most likely to go to Guangyang County.
