Chapter 300: Desperate Su Wan

From the second half of the night to the early morning, Kong Sheng had been standing in front of the horse, holding Fang Tian's halberd in his hand, and he didn't move. Li Biao, Li Hu, Wu Xian, Wu Xie and Nan Yong knew that he was in an extremely angry mood at the moment, and no one dared to come forward to persuade him.

The anger in Kong Sheng's heart almost burned him.

He never expected that the other party was so mentally retarded and an empty plan, and Su Wu would be fooled. Being fooled only shows that she is stupid, or that she is in a hurry. But without Kong Sheng's military order, he acted without authorization, and this is what really made Kong Sheng angry.

Obviously, Huang Tao designed to abandon the city, but in fact, he had already secretly united with the rebels of Weichi, Yanjin, and Yuanyang counties, and brought the Xixi people into the city and then besieged the city in all directions, which was the wishful thinking of catching turtles in the urn.

In fact, it is a little too late for rescue.

According to the news of Tanma, the rebels besieging the city had at least more than 50,000 soldiers and horses, while Su Wu's Xixi soldiers only had 15,000 people, plus the Xi people were only good at cavalry combat, not good at defending the city. Backed by a half-destroyed city with fortifications destroyed by the rebels, can it withstand several attacks by the rebels besieging the city on all sides?

At this time, even if Kong Sheng led the army to rescue him, he was actually drilling into the trap laid by the rebels. So although Kong Sheng was anxious, he still reluctantly ordered to rest on the spot and stand by.

The rising red sun rose in the eastern sky, the warm wind blew people lazily, a ride galloped from the direction of Bianzhou, Kong Sheng slowly looked up, the stiff body slowly moved, but because of standing for a long time and numbness, this activity staggered a little, almost fell to the ground.

Nan Yong rushed over with an arrow and held Kong Sheng with one hand.

The horses galloped over. Wheezing, he rolled over and dismounted. knelt down in front of Kong Sheng. Said hurriedly: "My lord, Xixi's soldiers and horses were counted in the city, Huang Tao led people to besiege the city, and attacked it all night, but he didn't take it." ”

Kong Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, he stopped his waist, grabbed the scout's shoulder, and said hurriedly: "The Xixi people still hold Bianzhou City?" Is your message true or false? ”

The scout said respectfully: "How dare the little one deceive the adult!" When the rebels attacked the city. The small one watched on the opposite mountain beam, and saw that the Xixi people held the city despite the heavy casualties, so they hurriedly reported and asked the adults to send troops to rescue Bianzhou! ”

Kong Sheng's eyes became brighter and brighter. His shoulders, his hands, and even the corners of his mouth were visibly trembling, trembling with excitement.

Originally, in Kong Sheng's heart, Su Wan's more than 15,000 Xixi soldiers and horses were surrounded and basically had no way to survive, if this was the case. The expedition ended in a fiasco.

But unexpectedly, Su Wu actually resisted the crazy attack of the rebels. Kong Sheng didn't bother to think about why Su Wu was able to hold Bianzhou City. Immediately burst into applause and gave the order to rush into reinforcements.

Bianzhou City.

The red sun hung high, but the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and gunsmoke. After three or four rounds of frantic attacks, Huang Tao's coalition army left corpses in one place and retreated in embarrassment for a simple rest.

On the city tower, the banner is lying down, and the corpses of Xi soldiers can be seen everywhere. The living Xi soldiers, or holding weapons in their hands, endured fatigue and sleepiness, vigilantly observed the movements outside the city, tensed their nerves, and were ready to meet the rebel attack at any time; Or groaning and half-lying under the battlements, blood flowing from wounds all over his body.

Su Wan's face was like frost, and her pretty face was covered with dirt and blood. And her shoulder socket was simply bandaged because of the arrow, and the blood was still oozing out.

Su Wu held a spear in her hand, and her sad gaze turned from the corpse of Xi Bing who had been carried away by the soldiers, her willow eyebrows slammed up, and she stomped her feet with remorse.

Su Wu regretted not being at the beginning. She led Xi soldiers to follow Kong Sheng's Chinese army, but later, she took the initiative to ask Ying to attack Bianzhou from the right side, and Kong Sheng did not object.

Huang Tao led the rebels to evacuate Bianzhou City, Su Wu was carried away by the victory for a while, in order to compete with Tang Genshui for the credit of winning Bianzhou City, she led Xi soldiers to rush into the city to compete for grain, grass and other loot, but just when she entered the city gate, she realized that something was wrong and knew that she had fallen into the rebels' empty city plan. It's just that the development of the situation simply did not allow her to respond in time, and she didn't have time to withdraw from Bianzhou City, so she was surrounded by tens of thousands of rebel regiments.

Huang Tao led his army to launch a fierce attack on the city of Bianzhou. But Huang Tao also underestimated the bravery and fierceness of the Xi people, although it was because of the simplicity of the city, and many city defense facilities were destroyed by the rebels in advance, but the fierce Xi soldiers still relied on unity and cooperation and hard work, fought a bloody night, and defended the city of Bianzhou alive, without letting Huang Tao's rebels take a step beyond Lei Chi.

In fact, to put it bluntly, this is not about defending the city, but about self-preservation.

Xixi paid a heavy price, with at least thousands of casualties in the night of defending the city. Of course, Huang Tao's rebels also left a dense black corpse under the city wall, and the loss also exceeded Huang Tao's expectations.

Su Wan looked into the distance with the city wall, and saw no sign of the army moving, and the disappointment in her heart slowly turned into despair. She knew better than anyone else that although the Xi people fought bravely, they were outnumbered after all, and defending the city was not the strength of the Xi soldiers, if the rebels organized an attack again, I am afraid it would be difficult to resist. And once the city is broken, these more than 10,000 Xi soldiers will be completely buried in Bianzhou City.

And she is the culprit of the tragedy of the Xixi extermination clan.

Su Wan's delicate little mouth trembled, and her heart sank to the bottom.

She couldn't complain that Kong Sheng didn't come for reinforcements, one was that reinforcements would take time, and by the time Kong Sheng's army arrived, maybe Bianzhou City would have been broken a long time ago. At the same time, according to her logical thinking, if Kong Sheng considered the overall situation and took advantage of the opportunity of the rebel coalition to besiege Bianzhou, Xingyang and other places to avoid Bianzhou and gallop to Xingyang or Luoyang, it would be reasonable.

There are casualties in war. It's just that the Xixi Ju clan has become a victim, and Su Wu's heart is so painful that she almost suffocates on the city tower on the spot.

Not far away, Huang Tao's rebel battalion flag hunting, fluttering in the wind. The Xi soldiers on the city tower could clearly see that the rebel soldiers were making fires and cooking, and the smoke rising from the camp and the fragrance of food wafting in the air made Xi soldiers desperate.

The maid Jiaoyu supported Su Yu, who was crumbling, and said in a mournful voice: "Princess, when will Kong Taishou's army arrive?" If Kong Taishou's rescuers don't come again, we ...... I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore. ”

Su Wu burst into tears like rain and couldn't cry.

Xi Jianghe Lu strode over with a sad face, and bowed deeply to Su Wan: "Princess, the city is about to be destroyed, without further ado, let the last general lead the army to desperately protect the princess and break through!" ”

Su Wu choked and shook her head slowly: "Helu, what face do I have to escape alone?" ”

"Well, instead of sitting and waiting to be killed, it is better for us to give up the city and lead the army to break through, even if it is to the last soldier, we Xi people do not have a greedy breed who is afraid of death!" Helu roared angrily: "Princess, fight to the death!" (To be continued.) )
