Chapter 229: Tian Feng's Determination
"No." Even if the leaders were unwilling, they could only promise when they looked at the soldiers in the courtyard and the corpse that landed on the ground.
Before the crowd could disperse, a bloodied soldier suddenly burst in, with a feathered arrow stuck in his back, and when he saw everyone, his feet went limp, and he fell to the ground.
"What's going on?" Chen Feng's face turned pale, and he looked at the soldiers on the ground and asked.
The soldier glanced at Chen Feng, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, but his body was already extremely weak, and he said intermittently: "Karasuma...... Karasuma Invasion, Lu Long ...... The fortress has ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the soldier had already taken his last breath.
"What's wrong with Lu Long." Chen Feng was taken aback and hurriedly asked.
"Wake up."
The leader of the soldier's side immediately walked a few quick steps, came to him, leaned down and probed his snort, sighed, shook his head, and said, "He's dead." ”
"Great Chief, I'm afraid that the Lulong Fortress has been breached by the Karasuma people, and they will definitely march on us next, what should we do?" One of the leaders said.
Chen Feng's face was solemn, but his eyes were flickering, he lowered his voice and said, "Send someone to Lulong to inquire about intelligence, and the rest of the army is on alert." ”
An hour later, the scouts reported that Lu Long had been captured by Karasuma, and now the army was rushing towards them, and according to their estimates, the army invaded by Karasuma this time numbered no less than 100,000.
After listening to the scout's words, the faces of the crowd changed sharply, and Chen Feng also had a gloomy face, looking at everyone and saying, "Pass my order, the whole army quickly assembled, and prepared to retreat to the south." ”
"Great Chief, are we just leaving?"
Chen Feng glanced at him lightly and asked rhetorically, "What, you still want to fight against them?" ”
The army in their hands adds up to only 10,000 or 20,000 people, and if they face Karasuma's 100,000 army, it is simply a mantis arm as a car.
"But chief, what about the people of the city?" Hearing that Chen Feng wanted to abandon the city and leave, many people panicked directly, many of their family members were in the city, if they left, how should the people in the city be settled, and how should their relatives be settled.
Chen Feng's eyes suddenly became fierce, staring at everyone with murderous eyes, and said word by word: "What kind of resistance we have now, you also know Xu Wu's situation, it's just a small city, if we really defend the city, within three days, the city gate will be broken." ”
"We can ask the Tang Army for help." Among the people, I don't know who said such a sentence, and suddenly a chilling momentum rose and fell in the room.
Suddenly, this momentum disappeared, Chen Feng looked at everyone expressionlessly, and said, "How many of you don't plan to leave?" ”
As soon as Chen Feng's words fell, two people immediately stood up, they were all people nearby, and now that Karasuma was invading, they really had no reason to leave.
Slowly, two or three more people stood up, and in the end, nearly half of the leaders in the small courtyard chose to stay.
Chen Feng was silent for a long time, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Okay, since you are willing to stay, then stay." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
And the few leaders who stayed behind breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, to be honest, they were still a little afraid that Chen Feng would turn his face.
"What now?" After Chen Feng left, a leader in the house suddenly asked.
"Ask Tang Jun for help."
About an hour and a half later, Luo Cheng, who was in Youbeiping, received a distress letter from Xu Wu, Luo Cheng is also a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, and when he received a letter for help, he directly ordered 30,000 troops to rush to Xu Wu.
But when Luo Cheng received the letter, the alliance between Karasuma and the Jin army was one step ahead.
Yan Rou and the others who were camped under the city were seated in the big tent of the Chinese army, Yan Rou looked at the information coming from the city, smiled coldly, and said: "According to the information, there are only less than 10,000 defenders in the city. ”
After hearing this, Qiu Liju laughed and said, "As long as we give us a day, we can take this city." ”
Yan Rou also nodded and said: "There is no need to attack, only need to surround three and lack one, maybe the defenders in the city will collapse without a fight." ”
However, they obviously underestimated the fighting power of the defenders and their determination to defend the city, and failed to climb the wall for two hours in a row.
Approaching evening, the sun was setting, and Luo Cheng finally arrived at Xu Wu County.
The neighing of war horses, the melodious sound of horns kept coming from afar, and the pungent smell of blood in the air kept penetrating everyone's nostrils and mouths, constantly stimulating people's nerves.
The arrival of the Tang army undoubtedly reassured every rebel soldier, and in just half a day, the combined forces of Karasuma and the Jin army attacked Xu Wu, causing them 3,000 casualties.
They had less than 10,000 soldiers, which was already the loss of nearly one-third of their troops, and if it weren't for the relatives of the soldiers here, plus their constant morale boost, I am afraid that the city wall would have been lost long ago.
After Luo Cheng arrived, they immediately welcomed Luo Cheng into the city and told him about the current situation in the city.
……
At the same time, Tian Feng, who was far away in Zhuo County, suddenly received a letter, which was a detailed work of the Jin Kingdom, and it was written about Yan Rou's strategy.
After Tian Fengshou received the letter, he immediately ordered someone to invite Zhang He and Yan Liang.
"I don't know what Captain Tian is calling?" Yan Liang and Zhang He arrived almost together, and after entering the big tent, Yan Liang asked unceremoniously.
Tian Feng was unimpressed by Yan Liang's attitude, and said softly: "General Yan is still angry about the things of the past few days? ”
It's okay that Tian Feng didn't mention it, as soon as he mentioned the past few days, Yan Liang was furious, and in the past few days, Tian Feng has been forbidding Yan Liang to go to fight, but Yan Liang is suffocated.
Tian Feng saw that Yan Liang was emotional, and immediately reassured: "General Yan Liang, don't be in a hurry, you will leave immediately." ”
Hearing Tian Feng's words, Yan Liang was pleasantly surprised: "What Tian Taiwei said is true? ”
Tian Feng said with a smile: "Of course it's true. ”
"What is the matter with Captain Natian, just give orders." Yan Liang patted his chest and said heroically.
I don't care about Yan Liang's excitement, but he always thinks about Xue Rengui, whenever he sees Wen Chou's broken arm, he feels heartache, Wen Chou has a very close relationship with him, since his arm has been broken, he has gradually been alienated by Yuan Shao, so that now he is borrowing wine every day to drown his sorrows.
Yan Liang saw all this in his eyes, so these days he practiced martial arts diligently, forced himself to the extreme, kept learning from others, felt that his martial arts had been exhausted, and he couldn't wait to fight Xue Rengui.
Tian Feng just said: "Tomorrow, the general can take people to the Tang Army camp to fight." ”
Even though it was just a fight, Yan Liang still looked extremely excited, he was already looking forward to waiting for a day, as long as he could compete with Xue Rengui, it didn't matter what he wanted him to do.
"Righteousness will be pressed tomorrow."
"No." The two of them took the order.
