Chapter 205

Generalissimo Yuangai Suwen ordered the siege and set up camp. The subordinates gave an order, fired three cannons, divided the troops and surrounded them on all sides, and Qi Qitun went down to the tent, there were ten layers of camps, which were densely packed and not ventilated, and the snakes could not penetrate the horse's hooves, and the crows could not fly but the tip of the gun.

pressed the five-color banner of the four directions, set up the gossip camp, and each door and two members were fiercely guarded. Trapped in Dongcheng to prevent Qi from killing out of Dongguan and going to Wuling City for help, so he stopped at this main road. This time, the second trapped Xiangyang City, is different from the previous one, more powerful, the male soldiers are also wide, the fierce generals are also strong, strong and solid, with his means of reaching the sky, it is also a little difficult to retreat from the Jingzhou soldiers.

Not to mention the siege of Xiangyang City, but also to talk about the city. Xue Dingshan was in the main hall, chatting with the generals Xue Rengui is strong, no one can stop him wherever he goes, and the Yellow Turban War, he has to fight the three major forces in the world alone, even if it is the Luoyang Han Dynasty, Cao Cao, plus that Su Dingfang is also difficult Xue Rengui, and then unify the Central Plains, and now go south to sweep the thieves, I am afraid that I will return to the city on the same day.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard three cannons outside the city. Xue Dingshan only said that his father's version of the master returned to the dynasty, and he was overjoyed. The sergeant flew into the hall and said, "Major General Qishang, it's not good! The generalissimo of Jingzhou led tens of thousands of male soldiers, trapped the four gates, the camp was strong, and there were many soldiers, so please decide the major general. ”

Xu Maogong said: "Since the Jingzhou soldiers are besieging the four cities, please ask the major general to go to the city, spy on the situation, and then try a good strategy." ”

Xue Dingshan said: "Mr. is reasonable. "Xue Dingshan took Xu Maogong and generals from all walks of life to the East City. Looking down, I saw:

The clouds and mist rushed to the bullfight, and the murderous spirit spread all over the four gates. The wind blows the flag and turns into five colors, and the sun reflects the knife and gun as bright as silver. The bell jingled immediately, and the words in front of the soldier camp were clear. The east gate is green like three spring trees, and the west is as white as silver. The first soldier in the south is like a flame, and the armor in the north is dark. In the middle, I am golden, who wants to be trapped in the city this time.

Xue Dingshan then ordered the lieutenants of all walks of life to guard the four gates and be careful. Strengthen the battlements with bows and crossbows, ash bottles and stones, and guard the city day and night. If you encounter a battle with Yuan Gai Suwen, you are not allowed to start an army, and you would rather pick out the battle exemption card. If Jingzhou attacks the four gates, it is only advisable for the four cities to be defended, and there will be no major event. Don't make a mistake and start your army on all sides. If you lose a level, you will be beheaded by all four of you. The four generals were ordered, each with men and horses, and guarded it carefully in four gates.

Let's say that outside the city, Yuan Gai Suwen Jingzhou Imperial Camp Pan. In the evening, the marshal's military division and the major generals set up wine and drank freely, and returned to the camp on the third watch. After a night, tomorrow morning, the full meal has been finished, the generalissimo is draped all over, leading the partial general out of the camp to the moat, a faction of embroidered green centipede flags, left and right separated, Marshal Gai sat on the mixed sea horse, put on a drag knife posture, and shouted on his back: "Ah! On the city, the express report and the Xue Dingshan child know, now I have transferred the male general, this is not the same as in the past, now I have a lot of soldiers in the four gates, forgive Xue Rengui in Wuling City must not go back. You kid can be captured today, Yuehu City will definitely be broken, and the lives of you and other ants will only come to naught at present. If you surrender now, there is a glimmer of life! ”

The next day, the generalissimo gave an order, and a total of 12 cannons were erected at the four city gates, each with 5,000 soldiers. A series of artillery pieces were erected around the moat, which shook the towers everywhere and shook the heavens and the earth. shouted in unison, startling the barren mountains and tigers and leopards to panic; The gongs and drums sounded, and the crows and magpies did not fly in mid-air. The murderous atmosphere outside the city was full of fear, and the gods and ghosts were frightened. This siege of the city was not tight, and it frightened the people in the city, men, women, and children, who supported their wives and grew up, hugged their sons and called their brothers, looked for their fathers and children, and cried loudly. There was chaos in the neighborhood, and the soldiers panicked. Xue Dingshan was in the hall, and he could hear the cannons bombarding the sky everywhere, and felt that the ground was shaking, and he could hear the people in the city crying endlessly, and he was in a panic, and he didn't have an idea.

Xu Maogong was very anxious, and shouted: "The young general can rest assured that Tao'an, the Jingzhou soldiers are attacking the city, although it is powerful, but there are four deputy generals in the city to resist with their hearts, Xiangyang City is high and deep, and it must not be broken for a while, and there is no major event, please let the major general be relieved, and send down the military order to send ministers to recruit An Limin." Besides, there are soldiers outside, and it is not advisable to panic inside, if the soldiers are noisy, the outside will be wide, and the city will be destroyed. ”

Xue Dingshan listened to the words of the military advisor, and then ordered Xu Maogong to personally recruit the people on the four roads. Thanks to Duke Xu Mao's order, he went to all walks of life to recruit peace, so that these people's cries were slightly lowered.

Besides, the three thousand archers who looked at the army were shooting down with a whoosh; The artillery, ash bottles, and rockets could not be stopped, and the noise was kept until dusk, and the Jingzhou soldiers had to retreat to the camp to facilitate the quietness of their ears. This night the horse does not saddle, the man does not take off the armor, but only guards the four cities.

By the next day, Yuangai Suwen set up another artillery and attacked it in four ways. And the gates of the city were to be met with two thousand archers. Since then, the four deputy generals have been attacking for three days, and the four deputy generals are unwilling to eat, do not sleep at night, people are tired of working and tired, and Xiangyang City is in danger. Each of these four people sent someone to report to Xue Dingshan, saying that Jingzhou had a large army and a strong siege, and if they did not retreat with a good strategy, there would be a big disaster in an instant.

In the end, Xue Dingshan and Xu Maogong made a plan and found a person who looked like Xue Dingshan to pretend to be Xue Dingshan to sit in the camp, and Xue Dingshan sneaked out of Wuling City to ask for help from Xue Rengui's army.

On the second day, Xue Dingshan found a personal guard who looked like Xue Dingshan, put on Xue Dingshan's armor, held Xue Dingshan's blade, was surrounded by all the generals in the middle, and led the army to fight with Yuangai Suwen, Xue Dingshan put on the armor of an ordinary soldier, and put on a high-grade war horse in his crotch, holding a spear, and hanging a Xue family army knife from his waist. The two armies fought, and the battlefield was full of corpses and bones, and rivers of blood flowed. Xue Dingshan's body was also dyed bright red.

However, this time, Xue Dingshan and Xu Maogong's strategy was to pretend to break through and send people out to report the news as much as possible, while Xue Dingshan was sitting in Xiangyang City. Therefore, Xue Dingshan pretended to be a soldier and did not love war, but just cared about killing outside. Xue Dingshan single-handedly fought out of the siege of Xiangyang City.

Let's say that Yuangai Suwen retreated into the Shuai camp, sullen, and was busy passing the military order to pass the four guards to the Shuai camp, and there was something to say. This order was passed to the four gates, and the six generals flew to the east city and dismounted, entered the handsome camp and said: "The marshal is above, what is the military order for the last general?" ”

Yuangai Suwen said: "Generals, you must be careful and conservative this time. This morning one of the generals in the city rushed out of our camp and went for help. A group of people in this Wuling City, headed by the Emperor Xue Rengui of the Great Qi, his ability is high, very powerful, he commands the generals one by one can fight habitually, if the soldiers arrive, there will be a melee over the river and the sea, you and others carefully guard, not careless to underestimate the enemy, lose the army. ”

The six generals responded in unison: "The marshal will order, how dare you disobey it." The last general should be careful. ”

Yuangai Suwen said: "It is important to guard the flood land, please go back." The six generals resigned from the marshal and went out of the camp, stepped on the carved saddle, and went separately to guard the city gate.
