Chapter 238: Victory or Defeat Is Just a Matter of Waiting

The Guangling army became more and more courageous, but the rogue under Liu Zongmin's account was not a decoration, and the men and horses on both sides did not give in, and they fought to the death around the gap in the city wall.

At this time, General Ma Ke had just received the news that the Guangling Army had blown up the city wall.

The silence in the military tent was terrifying, a quarter of an hour ago, Ma Ke was still wantonly laughing at Wang Teng's ignorance, however, a quarter of an hour later, the plot was reversed, and Wang Teng actually blew up the city wall.

How did Wang Teng do it?

Marco slowed down for a moment before he stabilized his mind, "How's the battle going?" ”

"My lord, the offensive of the Guangling army has been blocked, and the messenger of the king's garrison asking for help is outside."

Ma Ke squinted his eyes, calculating the gains and losses, there is no doubt that no one can win Wang Teng's first battle, but Shouyang City is still in the hands of Liu Zongmin, if Ma Ke joins the battle group at this time, he may be able to capture a great achievement.

"Let the Messenger Come"

"No!"

Not long after, the messenger of the Guangling Army entered the military tent.

Marco was very eager, "Aren't you guys attacking in the cave?" How did Shouyang City collapse? ”

The messenger looked dazed, "My lord, the villain doesn't know what it is, maybe he dug down the city wall during the cave attack?" ”

Fart!

Before building a castle wall, the builders will inspect the foundation, and if the soil is soft, the craftsmen will never be reckless in building the castle wall, which is a matter of losing their heads, and no one will joke with their own lives.

Ma Ke was angry, but it was no wonder that the messenger was a third-grade general, and if he was angry at a nobody, it would be a bargain, "What does the king want to do?" ”

This question can be answered by the messenger, "My lord, there are a large number of rogues, and it is obviously difficult to accomplish a battle with only one of the Guangling army, and the king begs your lord to send troops to help."

Marco frowned, "How many gaps are there in the walls?" ”

"Only one place"

Ma Ke came to his senses, Wang Teng's move was very ruthless.

Nominally, he invited Marco to encircle and suppress the Rogues, but in fact, he wanted to use Marko's hand to attract the attention of the Rogues.

The most hateful thing is that Marco knows that it is a plan, but he can't refuse, who makes the temptation of success too great?

Liu Zongmin is a well-known general among the Liukou, and if he can be killed, Ma Ke will definitely get great benefits.

Here's your chance!

Ma Ke didn't dare to miss it, "Tell you that your home is guarded, Shouyang City, Lao Tzu is bound to win."

"Waiting for your good news!"

After the Guangling messenger left, the generals under Ma Ke's command rushed up as soon as possible, "Your Excellency, think twice, this is Wang Teng's trick."

Marco was a little annoyed, "What about the plan?" In addition to entering Shouyang City, Ben will have no choice, do I want to let a mere garrison ride to the head? ”

"My lord, can't we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?"

"Nonsense, Liu Zongmin has 5,000 soldiers and horses, if we can't take this opportunity to take it down, we will have a headache at that time."

"But Shouyang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if you storm the city gate, you will inevitably suffer heavy casualties."

"I'm afraid of a bird, Wang Teng is storming the gap, they must have attracted the main force of the Liukou, this is our best chance"

The general was speechless and could only retreat.

Although Ma Ke is greedy for life and afraid of death, he also has some real skills, and after a stick of incense, 3,000 soldiers and horses will pull out the camp and attack.

"Woo woo", the high-pitched swan chirping sounded, which was the unique military music of the Ming army.

The Guangling soldiers who are fighting bloodily against the rogue are in high spirits, and reinforcements are coming!

The summer sun is scorching, and even the afterglow of the setting sun is unbearable.

It would be a great thing for both sides to end this war sooner.

At the small gap, the Guangling Army had successfully gathered dozens of people, and they formed a small phalanx.

The elite of the Liukou, whether it was a foot soldier or a cavalryman, were all in front of the phalanx.

The fight between Huang Hu and Liu Zongmin still had a slight upper hand in the fight, but with Zhou Yuji's timely response, Huang Hu did not suffer any big losses.

Liu Zongmin was inevitably a little regretful that he failed to kill the enemy general, but he still shouted, "Sons, as long as we block the gap, the officers and soldiers will not be able to move an inch, so rush with me!" ”

Liukou understood what Liu Zongmin meant, no matter how many times they attacked, as long as the Guangling army did not withdraw from the gap, then their war would not end.

The gap is too small, and the Guangling army is increasing very slowly.

Unwilling to give up easily, Marco led a large army to begin the battle to capture the city.

The rogue tried his best to resist, but how could Marco let the duck that had reached his beak fly?

Half an hour later, the Ming officers and troops still had the upper hand.

Liu Zongmin only cared about blocking Wang Teng, not realizing that the city gate had become another main point of attack for the official army.

The Liukou clone lacks skills, in order to encircle the Guangling Army, they have spent a lot of strength, and now, Ma Ke launched a strong attack, and the Liukou immediately lost some care.

It took only half an hour from the appearance of the Mako, and in such a short time, there were signs of loss of the city gate, how could the defenders be embarrassed?

No, we must hold it firmly, and we must not let the officers and soldiers succeed!

With this in mind, the rogue swore to fight to the death, but he stopped Mako's soldiers and horses.

In another place, Liu Zongmin was under siege.

Huang Hu planned for a long time, and finally isolated Liu Zongmin from his subordinates.

As soon as he succeeded, the officers and soldiers of the brigade rushed forward.

Liu Zongmin is full of officers and soldiers in front of him!

The rogue is very nervous and "rescues the general"

"Kill, there are not many officers and soldiers, rescue the general, we still have a way to live"

"Kill"

After Liu Zongmin was separated from the army, the Liukou completely lost their backbone, and they were in a mess, some wanted to snatch Liu Zongmin back from Huang Hu, while others were considering a way out.

Liu Zongmin's plot to seize Shouyang was originally unpopular, and the people in the city were only afraid of his obscenity and had to obey the order.

There are 5,000 rogues, and there are only more than 1,000 people that Liu Zongmin can use at the moment.

Shouyang is too big, in order to defend the city wall, Liu Zongmin spent too much effort, and now, the Guangling army is attacking one place, and the thieves are faintly unable to resist.

"Sonorous", under the blazing sun, the yellow tiger has been fighting for a stick of incense, and the armor on his body has been soaked with sweat, and every time he moves, the sweat on his body will flow loudly.

The Guangling army became more and more courageous the more they fought, on the contrary, the more they fought, the more afraid they became.

I don't know when, Liu Zongmin finally killed the enemy under the desperate fight of his personal guards and fled.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the brigade rushed into the gap.

The Rogue is defeated!

Defeat is like a mountain!

A quarter of an hour ago, Shouyang was still solid, but a quarter of an hour later, Shouyang City was broken, and a gap appeared in the solid north city that should not have appeared, how could this be?

The rogues were puzzled, Huang Hu's superb martial arts did not surprise him too much, and there were countless people in the world who were able to fight in battle.

Defeat under the hands of Huang Hu is completely acceptable to Liu Zongmin, but how did the city wall collapse? Liu Zongmin wants to understand this the most.

Black art? Liu Zongmin, who is accustomed to pretending to be a ghost, scoffed, if Wang Teng really knows how to do witchcraft, why bother to mobilize the people and work on an expedition?

The city wall collapsed for a reason, Liu Zongmin has been defeated, and his greatest wish is to understand the reason for the collapse of the city wall.

After the Guangling army gained a firm foothold, it opened the north gate as soon as possible, and when another group of soldiers and horses entered through the city gate, the completely frightened rogues were defeated.

Liu Zongmin fled, and the news spread quickly among the defenders.

Even his own generals have fled, is there still a need to fight this battle?

When Guangling's soldiers and horses shouted the slogan of disarming and not killing, the desperate rogues surrendered.

Of the 5,000 soldiers and horses, only a few dozen were really killed, and the defenders who died under the charge of the officers and soldiers were only more than 900 people.

If it is just to defend according to the danger, under pressure, the rogues may be able to hold on for a while, but who would have thought that the city wall would collapse in one place, and the huge roar seemed to be the anger of the heavenly prince to the extreme.

Ma Ke has all his strength, he really wants to show his skills, who would have thought that the rogue would actually fall!

An hour later, the Guangling Army completely took over the defense of Guangling City.

The treasury and the government were intact, and the defenders did not have time to set fire to it, and the Guangling army swarmed in.

By the time Ma Ke led his army into the city, several key places had fallen into the hands of Wang Teng.

During the war, there were green-skinned scoundrels who went to the streets to loot, and in this regard, the Guangling army killed the killers, caught one and killed one by one, and never showed mercy.

The bloody killing shocked Xiaoxiao, so that the chickens and dogs did not dare to leave the nest lightly.

Liao Liu, who joined the rogue during the war, hid at home, shivering.

The elderly father asked Liao Liu: "Little Liuzi, why did you run home when you didn't fight in the city?" ”

Liao Liu trembled: "Dad, that Wang Teng is too powerful, General Liu Zongmin and Liu have been arrested, the rampant Jingjie Tiger is also dead, and my son still wants to serve your old man, so he escaped back."

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back"

"Dad, do you think Guangling soldiers and horses will kill you?"

The old man pondered for a while, and only after a while did he say: "Although my son is a defender, he has never done anything that hurts heaven and reason, if that Wang Teng is really as rumored, he will not be like you."

Liao Liu's eyes widened, and he said expectantly: "Dad, I heard that Wang Teng is very benevolent and righteous, much more righteous than General Liu, you said that he took Shouyang City, do we have a good life?" ”

"Don't think about it so much, I heard that there is also a staff general Ma Ke with him, he is not good at stubble"

"Dad, I heard that things in Ulju are very cheap, the people are not left behind, and the families are rich, if only we could live like that."

"Let's see, I heard that the waterwheel of Guangling is very convenient, if it can be brought to Shouyang, this year's harvest will be settled."

Liao Liu was about to say more, when a gong suddenly sounded outside.

Liao's father and son looked at each other, and they were all calm.

"Bell bell, Shouyang Ma is a great crime, rebelling against Liu Zongmin, committing many crimes, and now he has been arrested and brought to justice, the government only punishes the first evil, and does not ask about the remaining crimes, as long as the people keep to themselves, the court will not be embarrassed with you"

"Bell, bell, bell, the government offers a reward, those who hand over the guards' clothes, helmets, and ordnance will always be rewarded, and those who hide will not be spared once they are discovered."

Liao Liu looked at the long knife in his hand, touched the leather armor on his body again, and said with a bitter face: "Dad, what should I do?" ”

"What else can I do? To get the usual reward? ”

Liao Liu's color changed: "Dad, aren't you afraid that I will fall into the mouth of the tiger?" ”

"Bastards, if the officers and soldiers really want to kill us, they still use excuses?"

"What if they don't admit it?"

"What are you afraid of! I'll go with you, is Zhang Wu next door also going home? You call him to go with him, call a few more people, don't be afraid that he won't admit it"

Liao Liu has a backbone and promises again and again.

After a stick of incense, Liao Liu gathered more than ten companions to come to the state capital.

Dozens of young men suddenly appeared, and the Guangling army and horses were like facing a great enemy.

The soldiers in charge of patrolling here did not dare to slack off, and notified their own military academy as soon as possible.

"Boom, boom", hurried footsteps sounded, and it didn't take long for nearly a hundred soldiers to surround Liao Liu and others.

As the bowstring sounded, one of the generals shouted, "Stop, what do you want to do?" ”

Liao Liu cried with a sad face, and said in his mouth: "Master Jun, we are here to receive the reward!" ”

"Reward?"

Liao Liu's old father stood up at this time, "Everyone, the unfilial son of the family was coerced by the thieves to join the thief army before, and when the city was broken, this kid fled home, originally planned to close the door and not go out, and wait for the limelight to think about other things, but I heard people shouting, saying that as long as you hand over the ordnance and armor, you can receive the money, dare to ask the military master, but is there such a thing?" ”

The general of the army was the general under Wang Teng, and after listening to the cause and effect, he bowed his head slightly, and said: "Yes, this is the case, my family will do what he says, saying that there is a reward, then there will be no missing of you!" ”

Liao Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then can we go?" ”

The general smiled: "Of course you can, but, in order to prevent misunderstanding, I let ten soldiers follow you, okay?" ”

"Okay, I can't ask for it"

With the surveillance and custody of ten soldiers, Liao Liu's party soon came to the gate of the state capital.

At this time, there was already a long queue in front of the door, mostly people who were coerced, and of course, there were also real rogues, who heard that there was a reward for handing over the armor, so they came to try their luck with the attitude of giving it a try.

Wang Teng's reputation is excellent, after entering the city, the strict military discipline of the Guangling military horse also added a lot of impression points to it, it is precisely in this way that the people who fled home dare to go out to receive the reward.

Ma Ke was very annoyed, he thought that Wang Teng had stolen his limelight, but he couldn't find it, so he had to secretly write it down, waiting for revenge in the future.

It didn't take long for Liao Liu to receive the money and successfully returned.

On the way back, Liao Liu's companion Zhang Wu suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want this money, I want to join the Guangling Army!" ”

After saying that, Zhang Wu resolutely turned around and looked back.

Liao Liu and his companions looked at each other, the Guangling Army was well treated, and it was naturally excellent to be able to join it, but Shicai hadn't heard that the Guangling Army was going to recruit troops?

What if it collides with the officers and soldiers?

After a moment of hesitation, Liao Liu finally missed this opportunity.

At this time, Wang Teng was fighting with Song Xiance in parallel.

Song Xiance looked around, the street was deserted, and occasionally patrolling soldiers appeared, but other than that, there was no one on the road.

"The rogue is unpopular after all, and the adults can win the hearts of the people of Shouyang as long as they use a little means"

Wang Teng was noncommittal, "Shouyang is not my jurisdiction, what can I do if I harvest people's hearts?" I'm a military general, so let's do my part."
