Chapter 238: Pengcheng is lost
Outside Pengcheng, Ji Bu finally led the troops, and the Xiang family army was non-stop along the way, in order to fight such a time difference. www.biquge.info Ji Bu had to take Pengcheng before Xiao He returned, he didn't know if Xiang Yu could wipe out Xiao He's army, but he couldn't think about it, in his eyes, there was only Peng Cheng.
"Herald the siege." Although Xiang Jiajun was exhausted, Ji Bu still insisted on ordering.
The Xiang family army has 10,000 troops, an absolute advantage, Pengcheng only has 2,000 defenders, how can it not be attacked? Xiang Jiajun did not carry heavy siege equipment this time, not even hitting wood, only light ladders.
With Ji Bu's order, the Xiang family army quickly approached the city on the open and flat terrain outside Pengcheng. The general in charge of defending the city was Lu Shizhi, and after the delivery of rice and grain, he had already returned to Pengcheng. Lu Shizhi looked at the strength of the Xiang family's army, and knew that it was hopeless to defend the city, this was no longer a level of battle, even if there was a city to rely on.
However, he still ordered: "Archer, release the arrows!" ”
The Pei army defending the city were all veterans, and there was no panic, after receiving the order, the archers quickly drew their bows and shot arrows, and one by one the arrows flew through the sky. However, the number of the Xiang family's army was too much, and these arrows fell into the enemy's army, and they couldn't make any waves at all.
When they arrived at the city tower, the Xiang family army began to build a cloud ladder, and the Pei army on the city tower threw rolling stones and giant trees, although it caused casualties to the Xiang family army, but it did not affect the offensive of the siege of the city. The ladder was built, and Xiang Jiajun immediately climbed up.
"Quick, get oily." Lu Shizhi shouted loudly in shock and anger, and at the same time hoped that Xiao He would be able to return as soon as possible.
The boiling oil was sprinkled, and the offensive of the Xiang family's army was blocked. Ji Bu knew that this splashing of boiling oil was a means of Pei Jun, he snorted coldly and shouted again: "Keep attacking!" ”
Looking at the second round of the offensive of the Xiang family's army, Lu Shizhi did not dare to slack off, and the boiling oil of the Pei army attacked again. Pengcheng is very important, and all the strategic materials are stored in large quantities, so these boiling oils are still sufficient.
"General, you can't attack it. The boiling oil of the Pei army caused many casualties among our sergeants. A military marquis said eagerly.
Seeing this, Ji Bu waved his hand and said, "Send an order, divide your troops to attack the West Gate." ”
"No!" The marquis immediately conveyed the order.
The division of the Xiang family's army also made Lu Shizhi notice, but now he has no extra troops to deploy, so that the West Gate will inevitably be broken as if it is a fictitious one. Even if Lu Shizhi knew Ji Bu's intentions, he couldn't stop it. He yelled in annoyance and said, "Go to the county government and escort the master mother and the old lady out of the city." ”
"General, what about the king?"
"Bear Heart?" Lu Shiyi thought about it, and suddenly said: "Escort away together." "Now that Xiang Liang is attacking Pei County and Peng Cheng, he has already torn his face, even if Xiong Xin comes, it is impossible to stop Ji Bu's attack.
On the contrary, after Xiong Xin escaped from Pengcheng, the blow to Xiang Liang was the greatest.
In the Yanai of Pengcheng County, the battle in the city tower was so fierce that the shouts of Pei's soldiers could be heard here. Mother Liu took Lu Pheasant's hand, very anxious, and worried about whether Peng Cheng could hold it.
"Mother, don't worry." Lu Pheasant pursed his lips and smiled, pretending to be relaxed and comforting.
"Can my mother not be worried? Pheasant, you are pregnant, this is the descendant of our Liu family, and there is no room for loss. Mother Liu's face was full of wrinkles, and she said in a sad tone.
"Yes, sister, what the old lady said is very true." Lu Xiao also echoed from the side.
While speaking, a Peijun 500 lord walked in, and after saluting, the 500 lord said bluntly: "Master mother, on the order of General Lu, I have come to escort the master mother and the old lady away. ”
"Leave?" Lu Pheasant's heart fluttered, in this way, Peng Cheng couldn't hold it.
Mother Liu also asked in a panic: "What's the matter, Peng Cheng is it?" ”
"Mother, let's go quickly." Lu Pheasant made a decisive decision without delay, and the soldiers of Pei fought in the city tower to buy time for their escape. Lu Pheasant is very clear and rational, only if he leaves, these soldiers will choose to evacuate. In order to save Sergeant Pei as much as possible, she did not hesitate at all.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was so decisive, Mother Liu also nodded and said, "Let's go." ”
Several people left the county office, immediately boarded the carriage, and under the escort of hundreds of Pei troops, they rushed to the south gate. The fighting continued, and there was not a single person on the streets of Pengcheng, and the originally prosperous Pengcheng was obviously depressed a lot.
The carriage was bumpy, and Liu's mother lifted the curtain and ordered, "Stabilize the carriage." ”
The driver of the carriage knew that the mother was pregnant and hurriedly responded, but the speed of the carriage also decreased. Although the five hundred masters of the escort were anxious, they could only escort them so carefully, and the pregnancy of their own mother was the most important thing. This point was emphasized by Lu Shizhi.
On the city tower, Lu Shizhi also received the news of Lu Pheasant's departure, he took a deep breath, and ordered: "Order, withdraw the army from the north gate." Since it couldn't be held, and Lu Pheasant had already evacuated, Lu Shizhi also decisively ordered.
When the soldiers learned of the withdrawal, they also acted quickly and orderly, and they did not leave at one time, but left the city tower in batches, like waves.

"We workers have power, hey, we workers have power......"
A ringtone woke Liu Yan up, and when he connected the phone, his mother's familiar voice came: "Hey, Xiao Yan, Mom told you something." ”
Hearing the slurring in his mother's words, Liu Yan rubbed his eyes and asked, "Mom, is there a lack of money at home?" ”
"Mom knows that it's not easy for you, your little sister is about to go to college, and there is still a difference of 3,000 yuan in tuition."
"Mom, don't worry, I'll figure out how to pay for tuition." Liu Yan said calmly, trying his best to comfort his mother, "Mom, don't worry, your son doesn't steal or rob, he just eats with one hand." ”
Hanging up the phone, Liu Yan rubbed his eyebrows, the three thousand yuan was not a small amount for him. After going out to work for a year, the boss of the construction site fled with the money, and Liu Yan has not received his salary for half a year.
There is only 560 yuan left on the bank card, which is only enough for him to eat, drink and Lazar for a month, which is completely unrelievable. was worried, the doorbell rang, opened the door, Liu Yan smiled and said: "Brother Wang, can this rent be graced for a few more days, I am indeed a little tight on hand." ”
Brother Wang is a good man, and when he saw Liu Yan's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't bear it, but he had a tiger wife at home, and Brother Wang was also embarrassed. Hearing Liu Yan's words, Brother Wang sighed and patted Liu Yan on the shoulder, "Xiao Liu, it's not that Brother Wang wants to pick you up." It's not easy for you, your sister-in-law, I'll persuade you again. ”
