Luokoucang, also known as Xingluocang, is located in the southeast of Gongxian County, and was built in the second year of Daye! More than 20 miles around the cangcheng, there are a total of 3,000 cellars, each cellar stores 8,000 quintals of grain, and 1,000 officers and soldiers are set up to defend the granary. The grain in Luokou warehouse is all hoarded here from the grain transported from the south of the Yangtze River through the Grand Canal, and there are countless grains stored in the warehouse.

Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that if there is a big mess today, the big fat meat of Luokoucang is also targeted by many people! Among them, the bandits in Wagangzhai are the strongest, and a few months ago, Wagangzhai even forcibly besieged Luokoucang! If it weren't for Zhang Xutuo leading the counterinsurgency army to arrive in time, Luokoucang would have fallen into the hands of Wagangzhai! However, since the counterinsurgency army came to Xingyang, it seems that it has also had a certain deterrent to those who coveted Luokoucang, and Luokoucang was much safer.

On the wall of Luokoucang, several soldiers were also idle and bored, and began to joke with each other, and it seemed that the job of guarding Luokoucang had become much easier. And just when those soldiers were chatting about which of the widows in Gongxian County not far away was more romantic, suddenly, one of the soldiers looked outside the city wall and exclaimed: "You, look! What is that? ”

"Huh?" Hearing the soldier's words, several other people also turned their heads to look outside the city wall, but they were all shocked, only to see a cloud of dust and smoke rising on the horizon outside the city wall, and soon, a group of thousands of soldiers and horses appeared outside Luokou Cang, and approached Luokou Cang at a very fast speed! Immediately, the soldiers were all pale with fright, this Luokoucang is not an ordinary place, within a radius of Luokoucang, there are secret posts arranged, if the officers and soldiers come, those secret posts will notify the defenders of Luokoucang in advance! Now that there is no reaction to the dark whistle, there is such a force of soldiers and horses approaching quickly, needless to say, it must be friend or foe! The soldiers immediately split up, some ran to beat the war drums on the city wall, some rushed to the Luokou warehouse to inform the commander, and one desperately shouted downward: "Quick! Fast! Pull the suspension bridge! Pull the suspension bridge! ”

Because it is too important, the city defense of this Luokoucang is even far better than that of Xingyang City, directly comparable to the city defense of the eastern capital and the western capital, not only the city wall is tall and solid, but even a deep and wide moat is dug outside the city wall! There is only one exit in the entire Luokoucang, but there is a special suspension bridge to pass through.

In fact, even if there was no warning from the soldiers on the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city gate had already spotted the soldiers and horses, and almost at the same time as the voice on the city wall shouted, the drawbridge was also pulled up. As the drawbridge was pulled up, Luokoucang was also completely cut off by the moat, and even if the visitors wanted to rush directly to the city wall, they couldn't do it!

The army that suddenly appeared, stepping on the sound of war drums on the head of the city, quickly rushed to the outside of Luokou Cang, all of them were in standard armor, and dozens of people led by them were even equipped with excellent war horses! Seeing that the drawbridge was pulled up, the army did not force an attack, but stopped moving forward outside the drawbridge, lined up the formation, and a military flag fluttered in the wind in the military formation of that army, with two big characters written on it: "Wagang"!

"Wagangzhai! It's Wagangzhai! "When I saw that flag, the soldiers at the head of the city were all in a mess! The battle a few months ago, they still remember it vividly, it was the army of Wagangzhai that almost captured Luokoucang! Although they finally held Luokoucang, those defenders were still full of fear of the soldiers and horses of Wagangzhai!

"What's going on! Panic what! Panic what! At the head of the city, a shout sounded, and I saw a general striding up to the city, but it was Vice General Liu, the deputy general of Xingyang City! In that battle a few months ago, the defenders of Luokoucang suffered heavy losses, and even the general who commanded the defenders of Luokoucang was killed in battle, and after Zhang Xutuo arrived in Xingyang, he also made a series of appointments and sent Deputy General Liu to Luokoucang as a defender. Vice General Liu drank like this, and finally stopped the panic on the city, and immediately Vice General Liu also came to the female wall at the head of the city, and looked outside the city, and when Vice General Liu saw the word "Wagang", his face also changed! However, Vice General Liu was able to be sent to Luokoucang by Zhang Xutuo, and it was precisely because of Vice General Liu's courage that Vice General Liu was only shocked in his heart, and soon returned to his normal color, and shouted in a deep voice: "What are you afraid of!" It's just a thief in a thousand-watt gangzhai! Don't forget, a few months ago, it was a thief soldier in tens of thousands of watts, and they didn't succeed in capturing our Luokoucang! As long as we defend the city, the thieves will not be able to attack it! Come! Light the wolf smoke! ”

After adjutant General Liu calmed the defenders with a gloomy face, he immediately ordered his subordinates to light the wolf smoke and notify the nearest Gong County. Deputy Liu also knew very well in his heart that a few months ago, there were indeed tens of thousands of people who came to attack Luokoucang, but the vast majority of them were the rabble who were attached to the Wagangzhai banner, and the real descendants of Wagangzhai were only more than a thousand people! And now the thieves outside the city, just by looking at the equipment, you can know that they are all real Wagangzhai thieves, and they can't be compared with the thieves who besieged Luokoucang a few months ago!

In any case, under the words of Adjutant General Liu, the defenders at the head of the city gradually regained their composure, and began to line up a defensive position at the head of the city, and three hundred archers with bows and arrows leaned against the female wall to bend their bows and arrows, aiming at the enemy outside the city. And behind the archers, a total of more than a dozen artillery pieces are also lined up, and all the fire oil shells are ready, just waiting for the enemy to attack, and at the same time counterattack!

However, the thieves outside the city didn't seem to have the intention of attacking so quickly, among the dozens of thieves riding war horses in front of the military array, a young general wearing black armor came out of the ranks, holding a sword, looking at the Luokoucang city wall in front of him majestically, and shouted loudly: "I am Xu Shiji, the general of the Wagangzhai Righteous Army!" Now that the rebels of my Wagangzhai have arrived, you should not quickly open the city gate to welcome the rebels! If you wait for the rebels to break through the city gates! No mercy on you! ”

Xu Shiji! Hearing this name, Vice General Liu's heart suddenly tightened, although he didn't know Wagangzhai as well as Zhang Qingyu, but he had also heard of Xu Shiji's name! knew that Xu Shiji had helped Wagangzhai capture Shangqiu with the strength of one person, and this person was the first fierce general in Wagangzhai! Immediately, Vice General Liu immediately shouted to the left and right: "Be careful!" The other party is Xu Shiji! Don't be underestimated! If the other party dares to approach, immediately release the arrow! ”

Xu Shiji shouted outside the Luokou warehouse for a long time, but he didn't get any response, he couldn't help sneering, and shouted: "It turns out that this Luokou warehouse is full of some gutless rats!" Hum! Since you have no guts, why do you have to work for the dog emperor? If you don't open the gates soon, when! ”

Hearing Xu Shiji's sarcastic words, Vice General Liu couldn't help it, and shouted outside the city wall with a red face: "Bastard! You fatherless and unrighteous people! How dare you be presumptuous again? When the army is coming, you will definitely be razed to the ground! Hum! We have General Zhang Xutuo's counterinsurgency ......"

"Whew!" Before Adjutant General Liu's words were finished, among the cavalry behind Xu Shiji, there was a sudden sound of breaking the air, and then, a black shadow flew out directly from it, and he shot over when he saw Vice General Liu on the head of the city! The speed of that arrow was extremely fast, and by the time Vice General Liu reacted, the arrow had already reached Vice General Liu's face! Vice General Liu was shocked, and hurriedly flashed his head to the left, and felt a tingling pain coming from his right ear, and the arrow flew straight out with a blood mark, and finally pierced deeply on the flagpole behind Vice General Liu! Vice General Liu screamed, covered his ears and fell directly to the ground, but the blood flowed out along the cracks of Vice General Liu's fingers, and in a blink of an eye, Vice General Liu's right hand and arm were dyed red!

Xu Shiji, who was outside the city wall, couldn't help but be stunned by this situation, obviously not knowing, and after a while, he turned his head, glared at the group of people behind, and shouted: "Wang Bodang!" Who made you do such a villainous act? Vile! ”

With Xu Shiji's scolding, a general slowly walked out of the cavalry, holding a horn bow in his hand, it was Wang Bodang who had defected to Wagangzhai with Li Mi before! Wang Bodang first glanced up at the head of the city, and just saw that Vice General Liu stood up with the support of the soldiers, and his brows couldn't help frowning. Immediately, Wang Bodang took out another arrow from the arrow box on the saddle, and his right hand quickly bent the bow and arrow, and he had already aimed at the head of the city, ready to make up for another arrow towards the head of the city!

Clang! With a crashing sound, I saw a cold light flash, but it directly cut off the arrow of the arrow in Wang Bodang's hand! Immediately afterwards, the cold light stayed at Wang Bodang's throat again, Wang Bodang frowned, and lowered his head towards Xu Shiji, who was holding the long sword, but there was no reaction on his face, as if the long sword was on someone else's neck, and said unhurriedly: "General Xu!" What do you mean? ”

Xu Shiji stared at Wang Bodang with an angry face, and shouted: "Wang Bodang! I'll ask you again! Why did you do this villainous act? I'm talking to an enemy general, but you're hurting people with a hidden arrow! You don't want your cheekiness, isn't it just a waste of shame to do so? Don't think that if you have a secret prince to support you, you can do anything wrong! If there is no good explanation, I will kill you with a sword! ”

Wang Bodang glanced at Xu Shiji with an indifferent face, but he was not swayed by Xu Shiji's threat at all, but turned around and asked: "Wagangzhai is an anti-imperial court rebel army, I shot a dog official of the imperial court, do you need any explanation?" ”
