Outside the Daimyo's mansion, the dead bodies were everywhere, most of the Song troops who had fought all night were tired and resting on the city gate, the gate of the inner city was closed, Liu Ping fell asleep with wings, slept for less than 2 hours, and woke up from his sleep and got up to check the city defense. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The guard next to him saw that Liu Ping was awake, and hurriedly said, "General, why don't you rest for a while." ”

"I can't rest anymore, and if I rest again, I will be beaten in." Liu Ping said lightly.

"What about Pengju and Captain Han?" Liu Ping turned around and asked.

"Commander Yue patrolled the city. to prevent any spies from getting involved. Captain Han is guarding the west side of the city. The soldier replied.

"Well, come with me and see!" After Liu Ping finished speaking, he went directly to the west side of the city. I saw Han Shizhong hastily tied bandages on his body, sitting on the ground with a bloody face and talking to the Song army foaming at the mouth. When Liu Ping approached, he heard Han Shizhong talking endlessly about his gambling skills.

"If you want to say that this is playing dice, playing horses, Guan Pu, and I Lao Han say second, no one dares to say first, and the dice in the dice cup turn around, and I can hear him a rough idea. Betting on big is big, and betting on small urine is small. Unbelief? You go to the Western Army to inquire, who doesn't know that I broke Han Wu, even the old Xianggong also knows my name. Anyway, I bet big that day, others don't believe in evil, they all bet small, and I opened a look, hehe, I killed them, and the crotch that really made them lose was slippery. Haha, if it weren't for my old Han's itchy hands and too much money, otherwise with my gambling skills, I'm afraid I would have won back thousands of taels of silver by now, buy a big courtyard with three entrances and three exits in Bianliang City, and marry a few beautiful people like flowers and jade*, hehe, how comfortable you want to be. ”

Han Shizhong's words were full of spit and radiant, and all the resting soldiers also listened to it with relish, not seeing that Liu Ping had already arrived behind them.

Liu Ping looked at the scene in front of him and laughed secretly in his heart, this Han Shizhong is really an out-and-out gambler. After fighting all night, he still had the spirit to tell many soldiers about his gambling skills. He coughed softly. As soon as everyone turned around and saw that Liu Ping didn't know when he arrived, they all got up and saluted, calling the general.

When Han Shizhong saw Liu Ping approaching, he hurriedly stood up and saluted: "The last general has seen the general!" ”

"Captain Han. What a pleasure to teach the way to make money? Liu Ping quipped.

Han Shizhong scratched his head embarrassedly and said to Liu Ping: "The general said that he was laughing, and my old Han was just happy." ”

Liu Ping smiled and said, "Come, go over there, let's discuss the measures to defend the city." ”

"No!" Han Shizhong responded.

"Go, let's see if General Yue is here." Liu Ping said to the guards beside him. The guards were busy going to the city, and with little effort, Yue Fei went to the entrance of the city and went straight to Liu Ping. The blood stains on his body have not yet dried. There are some wounds in the armor. It was all traces of guns and halberds and swords, but there was still a look of determination on his face, and he bent down to Liu Ping and saluted: "General, what are your orders?" ”

"Come, come, sit, sit, talk." Liu Ping said with a smile. He sat directly on the ground, picked up the pasta and kettle sent by the people in the city, and took a sip of water. It was handed to Yue Fei and Han Shizhong. The two saw Liu Ping sitting on the ground, and they both sat on the ground according to their words. Han Shizhong and Yue Fei took a sip of water, grabbed the pasta and cooking cakes on the ground and filled them into their mouths.

"Pengju, how many soldiers are there in the city who can fight?" Liu Ping asked.

"Back to the general, there are only more than 4,000 people left. When I entered the city last night, there were more than 3,000 soldiers who fled without permission, and there were many dead and wounded in a fierce battle all night, and I led people to recruit more than 2,000 strong people in the city to help defend the city, but the thief army outside the city was heavy, and I am afraid that it would be a drop in the bucket. Yue Fei replied respectfully.

"General, there is no news from the people sent to ask for help, dare to ask when the Zong Shuai side will be able to come over to support." Han Shizhong said with a solemn face. Judging from Fang Cai's bad gambling appearance, he is really a thick and fine guy.

"Zong Shuai is in Cizhou, and it takes more than a day to bring troops here, I'm afraid that far water can't quench the thirst of the near." Liu Ping said helplessly. After he entered the city, he sent a capable Yongding soldier to ride straight to Cizhou to ask for help from Zongze, but Cizhou is still more than 100 miles away from the Daimyo, I am afraid that when the reinforcements arrive, he will also be broken through the city by the enemy.

"Did you find that all the people who attacked the city last night were Guo Yaoshi's victorious army. The old dog attacked and killed the city desperately, and the victorious army also suffered more than 3,000 casualties in one night. However, I saw clearly in the city that there were Jin people behind Guo Yaoshi, and there were quite a few of them, at least more than 2,000 horses. But there was no movement quietly. Liu Ping analyzed.

"Not bad! I think Jin Ren is using Guo Yaoshi as cannon fodder. Wear us down with victorious armies. And the Jin people will reap the profits of the fishermen themselves, and when I suffer heavy casualties, I will be able to take the Daimyo's Mansion without much effort. Yue Fei calmly analyzed.

"Well, no wonder I didn't find the golden leopard's tail when I fought last night. It turned out that Jin Ren was watching the play in person at all, watching the good show of our fight with Guo Yaoshi. Han Shizhong also analyzed.

"Pengju is right." Liu Ping said. "For now, we can only hold on to the city and wait for reinforcements"

Suddenly, a personal soldier walked up to Liu Ping and said in a low voice: "General, His Royal Highness King Kang and Lord Zhang are here." ”

"Oh? What are they here for? Liu Ping got up, and saw Zhang Bangchang disheveled, and Zhao Gou, the king of Kang, came to Liu Ping with an embarrassed face. Liu Ping and Yue Fei Han Shizhong saluted and saw King Kang, only to see that Zhao Gou's immature face was still full of dirt, Zhang Bangchang took a step forward and asked in a trembling voice: "Liu Ping, the Daimyo Mansion is in such a crisis, hurry up and send me and His Royal Highness King Kang away." ”

"Leave? Hmph, Master Zhang, are you talking about a dream? The Jin soldiers besieged the Daimyo's Mansion, do you think you can still get out of the city and return to Bianliang smoothly? I'm afraid that as soon as I leave the city, I will be cut into a pile of meat by the wolf-like golden soldiers outside the city! ”

"You!" Zhang Bangchang was speechless for a while, and said in a low tone: "Then what do you say?"

"What to do? Honestly stay in town. I don't have that much energy to care about you now! Liu Ping said mercilessly.

"General Liu, I'll stay and defend the city with you! ~" Zhao Gou said solemnly.

Liu Ping looked at the historical founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty in front of him, and said with a faint smile: "His Royal Highness King Kang, the city is dangerous, hurry up and go down to the city." If there is a certain family, the Daimyo's Mansion will be fine! ”

"Well, let General Liu order. If there is any sending, Xiao Wang will not refuse! Zhao Gou said with a serious face.

Liu Ping said to the guards beside him: "Send His Royal Highness King Kang and Lord Zhang down to the city, so that they can settle down." ”

Zhang Bangchang and Zhao Gou originally wanted Liu Ping to send a team of men and horses to escort them out of the city, but seeing that Liu Ping had no intention of escorting them out of the city at all, they had to go down to the city in a huff.

Not long after the two of them left, they heard someone shouting, "The thieves have begun to attack the city again." ”

Liu Ping hurriedly stood up, picked up his knife and looked at the city, only to see that Guo Yaoshi was commanding a group of soldiers of the Changsheng Army to storm the city wall under the cover of shields.

Hundreds of soldiers of the victorious army, led by the heads of their respective battalions, carried out a new round of charge, and more than a dozen strong men were holding thick slamming wood against the gate of the inner city. Liu Ping frowned. looked at Pharmacist Guo and scolded: "It's really a kraft candy, it's so difficult!" ”

With that, he raised his knife and shouted to the soldiers around him to prepare to fight. After a night of fighting, both sides seemed to have figured out each other's tempers, and many of the victorious soldiers also had words of suffering at this time. Forcefully launched a new round of charge, but the numb eyes and stiff actions had already betrayed them deeply. A sturdy sergeant who used both hands and feet, and while no one was looking, half of his body climbed onto the city wall. As soon as he went up, he was spotted by several Song soldiers surrounding him and hacking him to the ground.

Liu Ping looked at the Chang Shengjun who were still attacking under the city, and opened his mouth and said: "Old thief Guo, without the help of the Jin people, it is impossible to get in, and now, we should also fight back." After that, he said to Yue Fei and the others beside him: "Can you still fight!" ”

"Dare to die for the general!" The two replied.

"Good! We're going to drive these thieves out of the city today! Liu Ping said loudly. He Yue Fei and Yue Fei led a team of men and horses to directly kill the Changsheng army besieging the city. At this time, many Chang Shengjun saw Liu Ping personally leading troops to meet the attack. There was another round of tragic fighting, and Guo Yaoshi's shoulder was shot by a stray arrow, and he was immediately carried back to the rear by his own soldiers. Nearly 1,000 famous defenders, under the leadership of Liu Ping, went directly to the city gate, and the desperate style of play can always create a miracle. One step at a time, one Song army would be killed by the enemy. But none of the Song troops bowed their heads and fled.

Guo Yaoshi waved his long sword and shouted at the Changsheng soldiers: "Ascend! Work hard, and you'll be on the verge of success! Guo Yaoshi looked at the figure in the middle of the Song army in front of him with a hideous look, and it was the hateful Liu Ping. The long scar on his face has become a earthworm-like Duxi. The people around him are constantly decreasing, and they have been fighting for more than an hour. The speed of the attack became slow, and Guo Yaosheng angrily found that the advantage he had already occupied had been broken, and Chang Shengjun was forced to snatch back the outer city gate by Liu Ping and others at this time.

"Bang!" The gate of the outer city was caught by Liu Ping and others again, and the gate was closed tightly. Guo Yaoshi shouted at the soldiers on the ground: "Get up, get up, and then stab with a certain family, it will be easy to take down the Daimyo's Mansion!" ”

"After shouting for a long time, none of the Changchang victorious troops stood up and charged again.

"Anyway, you go to the Jin people to beg again, our people really don't have the strength to storm and snatch the city gate again." Zhen Wuchen struggled to get up and went to Guo Yaoshi's side to persuade him.

"Hey! If the Jin people had listened to me, they would have attacked the Daimyo's Mansion a long time ago, and they still need you and me to work so hard. Pharmacist Guo said helplessly.
