"Your Excellency!"
The scout swallowed, "There are also rebels in the direction of Beicheng!" ”
Sima Lang frowned and said, "It must be Kang Bo and Kang Tuo's people!" How many people are on the other side? ”
"About twenty or thirty thousand!"
Sima Lang muttered, "It's okay! And not unexpected! ”
Sima Lang looked at the black enemy army outside the city, his brain was running high, Xu Su returned to Sima Lang's side and said, "Envoy, the last general has already passed down the order according to your will!" ”
Sima Lang nodded and said to Xu Su: "General Xu is watching here, and this official is going to the palace!" ”
Xu Su hugged his fists and said: "Let you rest assured!" ”
Tuokun immediately looked at the familiar city not far away, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, at this time, Tuokun's cronies came to his side and asked, "General, do you want to raid the royal city tonight!" ”
Tuokun shook his head, "No need! The Han people have always been cunning, and they will definitely be on guard tonight! Let the soldiers have a good night's rest, and take the royal city tomorrow in one go! ”
"Yes."
"By the way, what is the situation of the Eastern and Northern armies?" Tuokun asked.
"According to the scout's report, the Eastern Army and the Northern Army have gathered, with a total strength of about 60,000, and they are now rushing to this side!"
Tuo Kun thought for a moment and ordered: "Order the left part of the left to go out ten miles forward to set up a defensive front, be sure to block them!" ”
"Yes." Bado answered the promise and beat the horse down to give the order.
Tuo Kun looked back at the hazy view of the highest terrace of the royal capital, and his expression was very complicated. And at this moment, the mood is as complicated as Tuokun's is Tyron. At this moment, he finally confirmed what Sima Lang had said to him last night.
The soldiers of Tukun were busy setting up camp outside the city, and the defenders on the city wall couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw such a scene. However, Xu Su did not dare to be careless at all.
In the middle of the night, it was a very quiet night, but the atmosphere was very oppressive, as if it was breathless.
A man quietly entered the barracks through the gate guarded by Tyrann's cronies, and went straight to Tyrann's tent, leaving only after about half an hour.
The next morning, just after dawn, the heart-pounding drums of war were broken.
Tens of thousands of troops swarmed out of the camp and formed a formation of 100,000 troops outside the city. At the same time, the defenders shuttled back and forth on the city walls, and the stones and wood were constantly transported to the walls, and the battle clouds were thick, and the battle was about to break out.
Sima Lang stood on the city wall and frowned as he looked at the rebels who were about to attack the city.
Xu Su hurried to Sima Lang's side and hugged his fists and said, "Envoy, all the city gates are ready!" ”
Sima Lang nodded and asked, "What about the palace?" There are no holes in the defense of the palace, right? ”
"Rest assured! The end will be ironclad according to your hope! After taking over all the defenses of the palace, only one guard of the original palace guard was left by King Kangju's side, and the rest were transferred to the city as a reserve by the general! ”
"That's good!" Sima Lang nodded. However, there is some bad premonition in my heart.
Xu Su noticed that Sima Lang's expression was different, and couldn't help asking, "Is the envoy worried about something?" ”
Sima Lang glanced up at the rebels outside the city, frowned, and said, "It is said that Tuokun and they should already know the news that the main force of our army is rushing here. If this official is them, this official will definitely give up the siege and scatter it to the deep-rooted northwest region! What a way they do it! ”
"Envoy. What do you mean? Xu Su asked blankly.
Sima Lang shook his head, "This official is just guessing out of thin air now. That's right. General Xu, are Shi Yin's people completely under control? ”
"Rest assured! The people who guard them are our people! ”
Sima Lang nodded. He bowed his head and thought, "What did I not think about?" ”
Suddenly, a thunderous roar sounded outside the city, and it turned out to be the war drums of the Tukun army.
Sima Lang raised his head suddenly, only to see tens of thousands of rebels pushing ladders and other siege equipment towards the city wall in an orderly manner, Sima Lang frowned slightly, and muttered: "It's started!" Tuokun, let me see what you have behind you! ”
"Envoy, you better go down first!" Xu Su persuaded.
Sima Lang understood that staying here would only add trouble to Xu Su, and advised: "General Xu, everything here will be handed over to you!" ”
Xu Su smiled calmly, "Unless the last general dies in battle, these rebels don't want to take a step beyond the thunder pool!" ”
Sima Lang nodded heavily at Xu Su, glanced at the surging tide of soldiers outside the city, and turned to go down the city wall.
Xu Su pulled out the barrier knife and shouted: "Crossbowmen come forward, listen to my orders, and prepare to shoot!" ”
In the rain of arrows fired by crossbowmen on both sides, the battle officially kicked off.
At the same time that Tuokun's troops stormed the west gate, Kang Bo and Kang Tuo outside the north gate did not move.
"Second brother, Tukun's army is storming Ximen, are we just holding our troops still?" The third Kang Tuo asked indifferently.
Kang Bo glanced at Kang Tuo and said with a smile: "If the third brother wants to attack, then let's go." ”
Kang Tuo smiled: "The second brother didn't move, how dare I, the younger brother, steal the limelight from the second brother!" ”
Kang Bo sneered and asked Po Lei, a close confidant, to the general next to him: "General Po Lei, if you attack so hard, can you capture the royal capital in one day?" ”
Without thinking about it, Poley shook his head and said, "Impossible! Although the city of Wangcheng is far inferior to that of the Han Chinese, our siege equipment is also very rudimentary, and there are still 3,000 Wei troops in the royal city! ”
Kang Bo nodded, and thought: "It seems that he is still used!" ”
Kang Tuo, who had been paying attention to Kang Bo on the side, frowned and asked, "Second brother, are you hiding something from me?" We're allies now, you can't do it on the face and behind it! ”
Kang Bo smiled, glanced at the third child, and said slowly: "He is my secret chess move, and it will definitely surprise our king!" ”
Kang Tuo couldn't help but be more curious, but he saw that Kang Bo didn't mean to continue, so he didn't ask any more questions, and at this time, a scout entered the big tent.
"Your Highness, just now, the general's army attacked the city wall, but it was pushed back by the Wei army that arrived in time at a critical time!" Scout reports.
Several people in the big tent couldn't help but show surprise, and Poley said in surprise: "I didn't expect that Tu Kun's army would attack the city wall on the first day!" In this case, it is possible to storm the city in one day! ”
Po Lei looked at Kang Bo, but Kang Bo shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not so simple, with those three thousand Wei troops here, Tuo Kun is not so easy to get!" ”
After a little thought, Kang Bo wrote a short note, called the herald, and ordered him to release the red-feathered carrier pigeon. (To be continued.) )
