Chapter 64: Ningcheng Flying General (7) (4th Update)

So Luo Fei's previous military order to transfer troops to transport grain could only be postponed, and he and Li Guang climbed the Beicheng Tower to observe, but saw that the grassland in the north was already dusty at this time, and there was a dust line in the distance that was rapidly approaching Ningcheng.

Soon, all the soldiers responsible for defending the northern wall were in place.

After another tea time, the vanguard cavalry of the Xiongnu army had already opened a position below Ningcheng City, but they were in a hurry to attack, obviously waiting for the follow-up Chinese army.

"Why is King Zuo Xian here in person?" As soon as Li Guang saw the old man riding a red horse led by the cavalry, he frowned slightly, and shouted to him: "My Ningcheng City is high and strong, and it is beyond the reach of nomadic soldiers like you to conquer it!" Why did King Zuo Xian come in person, did he want to work in vain and show off his might? ”

"Less nonsense!" King Zuo Xian said with anger on his face: "You shot my nephew yesterday, how can I not come to take revenge?" Although Ningcheng is solid, I have gathered 100,000 soldiers from various tribes, and I vow to step on this level and show your head to the public to avenge my nephew! ”

Luo Fei guessed that Li Guang shot the general on the white horse yesterday, and it should be the nephew of this Zuoxian King. At this time, the enemy's army was overwhelming, and it was obviously unrealistic for him to transfer another 3,000 people to transport grain and grass.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Xiongnu's middle and rear armies to arrive one after another.

Although the Huns have never been good at siege warfare, the ratio of the two armies at this time is 10 to 3, seeing that the Chinese army of the Huns has begun to assemble the rush car and the ladder, Luo Fei couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I just thought that the script of ordinary difficulty could be easier last night, and this system has now given me a large army to press the border, which is obviously preventing me from transporting grain!" ”

The book is brief, since then the Xiongnu army has been attacking the city from the morning to noon, although the north city tower has been firmly controlled in the hands of the Han army, but until noon the Xiongnu soldiers temporarily collected troops to make food, guarding the city wall and the Han army at the city gate, are also exhausted, in urgent need of other soldiers to replace.

During this period, Luo Fei also told Shen Ying about the sudden attack of the enemy army here through his teammates' channel.

But Shen Ying quickly told him: "That bastard named Feng Yuan said that even if the Huns come to attack, they won't be able to solve the difficult matter." The grain transport team is still walking slowly towards Ningcheng, and it is estimated that it will take four days to reach Ningcheng at the earliest! ”

However, the military ration officer had just come to report to Li Guang that the military rations in the city were now less than two days' worth of use. Although there was a lot of prey caught by the hunting team yesterday, it was still a drop in the bucket for the 30,000-strong army.

Moreover, the rations originally calculated were the quantities used by the sergeants stationed in the city and not arranged for drills. Now the sergeants take turns to defend the north gate, how can they not give enough food at noon?

If the military rations are supplied in the amount at noon, they can support until noon tomorrow at most, and there will be no food available until dinner!

The generals present, including Luo Fei, all understood what it would mean to the officers and soldiers defending the city if the army ran out of food.

Li Guang was so angry that he drew his sword and cut off a corner of the table where he was superintendent, and said sadly: "If Ningcheng is not defended, this is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!" ”

At this point, Li Guangmeng said to Sun Yue on the side: "General Sun, you will take my order and lead a thousand cavalry to find Feng Yuan, if he dares to transport grain slowly, he will immediately cut off his head to transport the grain, and I will bear it with all my might!" ”

"No, General!" Sun Yue immediately knelt down and persuaded: "This Feng Yuan really has the support of the favored ministers of the court, if you order me to kill him, I am afraid that the crime will be greater than the loss in the future!" ”

"What do you mean by being more than a loss?" Li Guang said angrily: "If it weren't for the enemy's pressure on the border, the city defender would not be allowed to leave without permission, so I would personally lead the troops to kill that scourge!" ”

Seeing that Sun Yue was still persuading him and refused to do it, Li Guang had no choice but to compromise: "Then you can lead the troops to imprison him and not kill him, just transport military rations!" ”

Sun Yue received the order, and when he left, he still hesitated to lead the troops out of the south gate.

"General Luo, I wonder if you can still ask for rain to slow down the offensive of the Huns?" At this time, Wang Lian, who had been silent beside him, suddenly looked at Luo Fei and said.

"Yes, yes." Luo Fei pondered the words and said: "But this place is no longer as good as the grassland, I can't control the scope of the rain when I ask for rain, if this rain also causes mud outside the South Gate, then it will be even more inconvenient to transport grain, I am afraid that the army will be trapped!" ”

Li Guang, who also threw an inquiring look at Luo Fei, also frowned after hearing Luo Fei say this, and no longer mentioned the matter of asking for rain.

Time from the unturned, after eating and resting the Hun soldiers launched an attack on Ningcheng again, for a time the city wall was raining arrows, holding a light shield to protect the Hun soldiers who rushed to the car kept someone falling down with arrows.

Obviously, the attack of the Hun soldiers in the afternoon was more intensive than in the morning, many people on the ladder held swords and shields, and climbed to the city wall intensively, and soon the strong Hun soldiers opened a gap in the city wall, and Luo Fei, who was more responsible for supervising the army, also began to retreat a little behind under the protection of the guards.

"It would be nice if Su Ruoying was by her side at this time!" Luo Fei, who had stepped back to watch the battle, looked at the Hun soldiers in light armor at this time and thought: "With this level of armor, Su Ruoying can easily penetrate with the "short knife of the rain battle".

Thinking of what he said before that he couldn't rain, he couldn't help but shake his head with some pity.

Li Guang and Wang Lian and other generals have personally rushed up to intercept the gap opened by the Huns, and for a time the Han army's heart was lifted, and the Huns on the city wall were soon killed by the Han army, and the two sides fought anxiously again at the interface between the cloud ladder and the city wall!

。。。。。。

It was late at night, and the Huns did not collect their troops and rest until it was dark and could no longer fight. But the huge scale of the camp was erected, indicating that this siege of the Huns would definitely last a long time.

No one in the city knows this better than Luo Fei, the script synopsis has long told him to help Li Guang hold on to Ningcheng for 15 days, but now the grain and grass have not yet arrived, and the grain in the city is only enough for noon tomorrow!

In the previous contact with Shen Ying, Luo Fei had already known before Li Guang that Sun Yue, who went to Feng Yuan to "rob grain", did not get his wish.

As if he had been prepared, as soon as Feng Yuan saw Sun Yue coming with the cavalry, he first took out the holy decree and read it to Sun Yue: "The holy decree requires that all matters concerning the grain in Ningcheng must be decided by Feng Yuan, the grain officer, and anyone who wants to forcibly grab grain or harm Feng Yuan will be punished as a crime of treason!" ”

The depressed Sun Yue had no choice but to lead his troops back to Ningcheng after saying a few cruel words.

After Li Guang, who got the news, broke two tea bowls, he had to order Wang Lian and several generals to take turns guarding the north city gate at night, and personally led the guards to start collecting grain from house to house, asking the whole city to gather all the food that could be eaten to the military food officer, and the military food officer would distribute it uniformly when he arrived!

But even so, the amount of food collected would only be enough for all the people in the city to eat tomorrow's supper.
