The same tragedy continued to play out in the city of Zhongshou, where the defeated officers and soldiers went from house to house searching and taking everything they could, and the adult men were captured and the young women were taken into the city. Although the area of the Tooth City of the Tiande Army is small, the city walls are very tall and thick. The cavalry of the White Water Fox lacked both siege weapons and siege experience. The Tanda launched a dozen charges in a row, but made no progress except for piling up more corpses under the walls.

According to common sense, if the enemy occupies all the outer cities, if the people who are besieged in the city do not have foreign aid, it will be difficult for them to break through and succeed on their own, let alone turn defeat into victory. But the white water fox's heart was very anxious. Yes, Wu Guihao does not have foreign aid, but there are many pairs of eyes outside the city staring at this small city. If I can't take Yacheng as soon as possible, I'm afraid that this night's busy work will be making wedding clothes for others.

At the end of the fourth watch, Meng Ming buried his wife, and now he has no idea of escaping from the city, and he wants to avenge his tragic death. Meng Ming took the initiative to find the Tanda people and told them that there was an underground drainage channel in the northwest corner of Yacheng that led directly to Yacheng, and the drainage channel could accommodate two people to climb into it side by side, and the exit in Yacheng was next to the north gate, so it was completely possible to take the north gate by surprise attack.

The Tanda people were skeptical of his words, and Meng Ming volunteered to lead the way for the Tanda people. The officers below did not dare to make a decision, so they told the White Water Fox about the matter, and the White Water Fox summoned Meng Ming and asked, "Why do you want to help me?" What do you want? Meng Ming said: "Wu Guihao killed my wife, and I want his head to pay tribute to my deceased wife." The White Water Fox granted his request and selected thirty warriors to follow him into the city.

Seeing the back of Meng Ming's departure, the white water fox found his henchman and advised, "Go back and stare at Qu Chuji." If he wants to escape, he will be killed. The Colonel took the order and left. The deputy general Wadley was puzzled, and the white water fox said: "This old man is right, people's hearts and minds can really determine life and death, if this person can't be used by me, he can't be used by others." ”

Meng Ming led thirty-three Tanda warriors and quietly sneaked into Yacheng through the drainage channel. When the time was approaching, the White Water Fox feigned to attack the city to attract the attention of the defenders in order to cooperate. Everyone was wearing the Tang Army's uniform in advance, and they were not noticed for a while after entering the city, and when Wu Guiyuan noticed that something was wrong, everyone had already approached the north gate. Meng Ming drew his sword and shouted, taking the lead in cutting down several guarding schools. More than 30 Tanda people worked together, and in an instant, they cut down the guards guarding the gate and opened the north gate of Yacheng.

Wu Guiyuan hurriedly ordered the archers to seal the gap, and the arrows rained down, and Meng Ming and his people fell to the ground one after another. But the general trend has gone, and the white water fox himself went into battle, leading hundreds of Wei Tie cavalry to brave arrows and swarm into the city. Wu Gui came to fight the white water fox with a round dance knife, and was chopped under the horse by the white water fox as soon as he joined it. Wu Guihao, who was commanding and supervising the battle at the head of the city, saw that the general trend had gone, and his eyes were closed, and tears flowed all over his face.

Mei Yuanyuan led a group of guards to rush to the head of the city and persuaded: "Dashuai, is it too late for us to go out from the West Gate?" Wu Guihao sighed helplessly: "Even if you can escape from the city, you will inevitably die after all." Run for your lives, all of you. Mei Yuanyuan said: "My nephew is willing to live and die with my uncle!" He turned around and beckoned to the crowd: "Kill with me, kill one is enough, kill two and earn one." ”

Wu Guihao praised when he heard this: "Good job! He took Mei Yuanyuan's hand and whispered in his ear: "Go to the temple and cut down all the Wang family, we can't kill the white water fox, let Wang Ben kill him." Mei Yuanyuan answered, turned around and left. Wu Guihao grabbed him again and advised: "Remember, change into the clothes of the Tanda people, and leave a few more alive." This basin of dirty water must be poured on the white water fox. Mei Yuanyuan said, "I know," and walked away with a knife.

The imprisoned Wang clansmen in the Lotus Temple were trembling and anxious when they heard the shouts of killing outside the wall getting louder and louder. The Feng clan and the Yan clan discussed: "If Wu Guihao is defeated, he is afraid that he will be angry with us, but what is good? Yan said: "There is a dry well in the backyard, which can hide people." Feng Shi said in a panic: "How many people can be hidden in a well?" Yan smiled bitterly and said: "It looks like a catastrophe to destroy the door, how many can be hidden." ”

Mei Yuanyuan called more than 20 soldiers to put on the clothes of the Da people, shouted and killed into the Lotus Temple, cut down every person, pity these old and weak women and children, have no power to fight back, and were killed all over the place by this dry spearman, cutting melons and vegetables.

Mei Yuanyuan was slashing hard, but he was caught off guard when he saw Wadley break in with a team of Murwei people. Wadley was ordered to protect the people of the Wang clan, one to kill, the other to protect, water and fire are incompatible, it is inevitable that there will be another fight. Meiyuan had few soldiers, and finally was defeated and committed suicide. At this time, there were still more than a dozen people of the Wang clan hiding in the house, and the soldiers wanted to take everyone out of the temple, but the Wang clan people refused to leave without distinguishing the authenticity. Wadley then ordered all the people to be slaughtered, and ordered the soldiers to search room by room, and when they were sure that there were no survivors, they set a fire to the Lotus Temple and burned it to the ground.

Seeing that the Lotus Temple turned into a raging sea of fire, the general asked Wadley: "The marshal ordered us to bring the Wang clan back safely, but the general killed them. Wadley sneered: "The big man just doesn't want others to splash dirty water on his head, and now that the dirty water has been splashed by someone, he has no choice but to kill it." Seeing that the general was still not at ease, he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, everything is wrapped in me." ”

At this moment, I suddenly heard the "Dong Dong" cannon at the south gate of Yacheng, and hundreds of people shouted in unison: "The second general is back!" The second general is here to save you! "I saw the brigade of Murowei people retreating from the south gate of Yacheng. Wadley stepped forward and was about to stop the rout, but Xiong Lindai killed him with an arrow.

A day ago, Wang Benqiao used a series of tricks to borrow the spies that the white water fox planted in Wuliuwan to spread the false news of his siege to the ears of the white water fox. The reason for the curvature is still that "the reality is immature, and it is not appropriate to act rashly".

The White Water Fox was very dissatisfied with this, and he began to doubt Qu Chuji's loyalty to him. After that, he put aside Qu Chuji, and he and his staff officers planned a plan to take care of the fire, and everything was complete, but they waited for nothing. He did not attack the southern city. Wang Ben used this strategy not only to separate the White Water Fox and Qu Chuji, but also to intensify Wu Guihao's suspicion of the White Water Fox. This forced the White Water Fox to move in advance and attack the surrendered city head-on.

Just when the white water fox attacked Yacheng with all its might, more than 130 ships moored on the river south of the city suddenly approached the north bank, and Wang Ben's 800 warriors and 300 sailors broke through the south city with lightning speed, and then the troops advanced straight and broke through the south gate of Yacheng.

The white water fox suddenly fell into the dilemma of fighting on two fronts, saying that it was because Wu Guihao was not dead yet, and the east and west gates of Yacheng were still in his hands, but Wu Guihao had no fighting spirit. The tooth army on which he started has been lost. Although he kept saying that he wanted to live and die with the city, but seeing the arrogance of the Danda people's prancing horse and raising his sword, Wu Guihao's fighting spirit was instantly stimulated. Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood. Wu Guihao decided to keep and use his body, intending to make a comeback. Under the escort of a loyal Ya army, Wu Guiyuan fled to the west gate of Yacheng, and Wu Guicheng, the guard of Xicheng, was his own brother, fighting tiger brothers, and going into battle as father and son soldiers, and his own people were still reliable at critical moments.

Wu Guihao rushed to the west gate but saw that the gate was closed, and the tooth soldiers were about to call the door. Suddenly, I heard someone laughing at the head of the city, and I saw Wu Guicheng wearing armor and carrying a sword, and he deliberately straightened his right arm for Wu Guihao to see, and tied a white scarf on his arm. This is the logo used by Wang Ben's soldiers to distinguish them from the Tiande Rear Army.

Wu Guihao scolded: "I treat you well, why do you want to betray me? Wu Guicheng angrily reprimanded: "You treat me well? In your eyes, I'm not even as good as a grandson. Wang Ben is a smiling face when he talks to me, but you've always had a fucking stinky face. Phew! ”

Wu Guihao had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the east gate, halfway encountered the siege of the Murwei people, in the melee, Wu Guihao wielded a knife and slashed dozens of Da soldiers, and then was injured by a stray arrow, exhausted and captured.

When Wang Ben arrived at the Lotus Temple, the huge temple had been reduced to white ground, and there was not a single living mouth except for hundreds of charred bones. The soldiers were ordered to dig three feet into the ground to search, but in the end they found nothing. Subsequently, Wang Ben and Baishui Fox repeatedly fought over the dental department. After a fierce battle until dawn, the White Water Fox finally won by virtue of its numerical advantage. Wang Ben led the remnants of the army to withdraw from Yacheng, then from Nancheng, and finally to the riverboat.

The white water fox handed Wu Guihao over to Meng Ming as promised, and Meng Ming stripped Wu Guihao and tied him to the city on horseback, and then dug out his heart and liver with a short knife at the intersection and placed it in front of Wang's spirit.

The white water fox asked Meng Ming, who had taken revenge: "You have made great contributions to me, and you can just open your mouth if you want any reward." Meng Ming said: "It was the Tiande Houjun who killed my wife, and this revenge should also be remembered on Wang Ben's head, and I am willing to return to the Khan's account, capture and kill Wang Ben, and relieve the hatred in the hearts of the grass people." The white water fox was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately appointed Meng Ming as a general with blood and bones, and he always accompanied him with a golden knife.

Wu Guihao died, Wang Ben was defeated and fled, thousands of corpses were ambushed in the city, and the city was surrendered to the hands of the white water fox. However, he did not have the slightest joy. The white water fox suddenly found that the Zhongshou Surrender City was like a flat boat in the stormy waves, which could be swallowed up by the waves at any time, and he could only rise and fall with the waves, and he had no way to control it.

The soldiers, who had fought all night, were about to breathe a sigh of relief when dawn came, but they were painfully surprised to find that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses had gathered around them. These tens of thousands of people belonged to at least three forces: Yang Hao of the Xining Army, Shi Xiong of the Zhenwu Army, and Liu Desan of the Hedong Army. If you add Wang Ben floating on the river, and the horse leaping on the other side of the river, the small city of Zhongshou has become a stage for the display of various forces in the north.
