"My lord, in that case, I will go down first to gather people and horses, so that I can listen to them at any time!" Wang Kefan only said this, and when he got permission, he immediately bent his waist, used his hands and feet together, and went down to the city cautiously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But he said that he went down the city wall, gathered his cronies, and after getting You Renlong to come down to give a lecture, he ordered each to lead his own soldiers to rush to the four gates of good life without mentioning it, only to hear the shouts outside the city, and immediately went up the wall, but it was a pity that they were disappointed and happy.

The thieves just kept shouting outside the city, but under the cover of their own artillery fire, for some reason, a hundred steps away from the city, they retreated to the left and right, and then the brigade of men and horses continued to follow, and so on, each holding a ladder and a huge shield, actually practiced under the city, so that the officials and soldiers were dumbfounded.

But after only a while, everyone was under the blow of artillery fire, unable to stand, so they went to the wall to guard in this short period of time, and actually caused several people to be hit by the cannon hit by the iron nails scattered on all sides, and fell to the ground and howled continuously, and saw that the thief army did not seem to have any movement to attack the city, so they could only withdraw the city wall in embarrassment under the leadership of their respective generals, leaving only a small number of people to continue to monitor.

But after repeating this, they heard the movement, and were misled by the frightened soldiers on the tower, and in the three attacks under the city, they must be called to go to the city once, but they were distressed to see that those thieves were still practicing, as if they had no interest in the nearby Yangqu City.

Now, it will completely embarrass the officials and soldiers, if they ignore it, the thief army will suddenly kill, set up a ladder to attack the city, only on the top of the city tower is only a small 200 people, how to resist?

At that time, the reaction will not be too late, and the thief will take advantage of the weakness, and he will regret it.

But if you want to say that you have to go up the wall every time, from the stairs to hide under the battlements, and use the shield to protect yourself, and you are shot by the artillery fire under the city, I am afraid that there is a danger of being constantly hit, as a brave soldier, which is not an elite soldier who has been in a hundred battles? did not kill or injure the thieves in the battle array, but called the artillery to death, which is called wronged!

But who is called Yangqu guard, it is really angry to kill a person.

The previous various departments were transferred, many of them dismantled the artillery fire system from Yangqu City, and more than ten counties in southern Jinnan were repeatedly attacked by bandits, so they naturally took artillery fire from the quiet place to suppress the thief army, Yangqu relied on being in the interior, there was no danger, and there were eight or nine artillery pieces in the whole city, all called for reinforcements from all over the country, and the remaining shortage, although the craftsmen were ordered to rush to make it, but for a while, it was not enough to replenish.

After Li Jing raised his troops, the officials up and down deceived Yangqu together, causing Yangqu to continue to garrison the emptiness, and when the thieves invaded in large numbers, they actually called the capital of a province, and there were no ten artillery pieces in the whole city.

Without the benefit of artillery, the officers and soldiers were even more embarrassed, and they could only rely on the city wall to block the invasion of the thieves with their lives, which also caused the fact that at present, the thieves are constantly practicing and attacking the city under the city, and the officers and soldiers can only passively mobilize men and horses to defend, and are constantly killed and wounded by the cannons fired into the city by the thieves, and there is no other better way.

If there were thirty or fifty pieces of artillery, firing only one burst, it would surely cause the thief army to collapse, how could he dare to form a formation so calmly a hundred paces below the city wall?

"General, after coming down like this, in just two hours, we lost fifteen brothers, this battle is really a wreck!" A garrison of 100 households, even more angry to open the city gate, out of the city to fight to the death, but unfortunately no one paid attention, can only come to You Renlong's side, and can't help venting the anger in his chest.

You Renlong is not angry, among the dead and wounded, several are his own soldiers, the previous seven hundred cavalry, in Li Jing's army, even if there are 10,000 people, he can't help him, which shows that his elite is extraordinary, but now he is so dead, it makes him grit his teeth, "Straight thief mother, the end is hateful, if one day falls, it falls into my hands, it will make the thief crush his bones and scatter ashes!" ”

It's a pity that right now, they can let go of their cruel words, after all, they can't protect themselves, let alone capture Li Jing alive.

However, You Renlong is not worried about the defense of the city, after all, at present, there are no less than 1,000 regular officers and soldiers, and there are also large private soldiers guarding the courtyard, serving and serving one or two thousand soldiers and horses, and there are as many as five or six thousand people in the city.

"The thief must be afraid, so as to paralyze the carelessness of us, and when he is lax, he will surely come with all his teachers." You Renlong's many years of military career, how old-fashioned, at a glance revealed the intention of the thief's move, and then ordered, "Each department only leaves a small group of soldiers and horses to monitor the movement, and the army will no longer be dispatched, and I see how many cannons there are, it can be so wasteful!" ”

"Whoa!"

It's really especially the dragon who is worried that the guards can't afford to be injured, just the days of defending the city, the casualties are no less than 200 people, it really hurts him, training an elite and loyal family, not a few years of hard work, dozens of taels or even hundreds of taels of silver, it can't be practiced, and it is called to fight a few times, and if you survive, you can be counted as an elite, so the cost is too great.

Each one of them is You Shilu's treasure, today's battle, at least more than ten casualties, You Renlong naturally doesn't have a good temper, but it's a pity that the thief army is still outside the city, how can he vent the anger in his chest.

In this way, there was no battle for a day, and the beggar army followed Li Jing's instructions, only **, did not attack the city with real troops, and constantly consumed the energy of the officers and soldiers.

"Dogs. Mother-raised, finally let the gentlemen be quiet. It wasn't until the early hours of the night that the rumbling cannons stopped, and the officers and soldiers in the city, who had long been exhausted and fighting with their eyelids, finally fell to the ground with their armor and weapons in their armor and weapons, and fell asleep soundly......

It's a pity that they are glad that the thief army did not attack the city today, and only wasted precious artillery, but they didn't know that under its cover, hundreds of kilograms of gunpowder bags were taken by the elite, and they were secretly transported directly to the foundation of the southern city wall along the dug tunnel, and placed them.

The various departments got a temporary military order, east and west, north and west, called the three watches, no sound, each ate the dry food that had been prepared a long time ago, approached the city by night, just waiting for the morning light to come out, the whole army pressed up, only to hear the loud sound, desperately to enter the city, not allowed to retreat, violators of the order beheaded!

The generals of the various departments, although they did not know the details, but the military order had been issued, immediately ordered to go down, and called the soldiers to be on alert, only to wait for the third watch, the battalions still lit the lights, each had their own meals, and then quietly assembled, and began to advance by feeling the night......
