Chapter 156: The Battle for the City

It can be said that Liu Gan's joy of returning to Shuanglongzhai this time was diluted all of a sudden, and he even felt a little regretful. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info because a lot of time has been wasted in the nearly a week of going back and forth.

When they came to the school field, they saw that Yanling was sweating profusely to train the recruits, because the migrant workers recruited from the four urban districts were enough, so in the end they put down the repair work and concentrated on training.

Seeing Liu Qian coming, Yanling came to his side and said with a smile: "Why did you come back so soon?" ”

"What, you don't want me back?"

Looking at Liu Gan's eyes, Yanling said solemnly: "Are you going to set off again?" ”

Yan Ling suddenly changed the conversation, which caught Liu Qian a little off guard, but this was the purpose of his coming, and after reacting, he said with the same straight face: "Yes." ”

"Can I not go?" Unexpectedly, Yanling objected.

Liu Qian sighed and said, "Whether it's for me or you, I'm going to go after all." ”

"I see." Yanling turned around and went to gather the troops.

From the bottom of his heart, of course Liu Gan didn't want to go. Being able to fight monsters and practice leveling up without participating in this kind of dispute that may lose his life at any time, not to mention that with her by his side, Liu Gan is naturally very happy. But the northern wall of Yecheng was broken, and the Qin division would attack sooner or later, and at that time, it would definitely be inferior in terms of troops and master resources, and it would be a problem to escape.

Moreover, this world is obviously no longer so peaceful. The sons of doom have gradually stepped onto this stage.

And this world will be their world after all!

Liu Qian set off with 8,000 soldiers, and Qing Yu was the only one by his side, and of course Xiaobai followed. It's not that he doesn't want to bring everyone with him, but Yecheng is not enough to defend at this time, so he can only leave Li Zhi and Yanling to defend in case of an emergency.

In these days, the Qin division has completely taken charge of Luoyang City, and even sent troops south and stationed in the northern city. What Liu Gan has to do now is to take down a few big cities as capital for confrontation.

There are also Kong Ning and others who did this with him, who even acted earlier than Liu Gan and had already taken Shuzhong City, the Hundred Flowers City. The goal of Liu Gan's trip is Jinzhou.

Like Yecheng, Jinzhou is a big city, but there are not many residents in the city at this time. The Qin division was in the direction of the army, the imperial city of Luoyang fell, and the residents were already frightened, as long as they had a little knowledge, they all sold their property and fled to the south. Even Liu Gan's business city has recently received a lot of displaced people. And Liu Gan traveled all the way, and he didn't go to many homeless people who dragged their families with their mouths.

Although he pity these people, Liu Gan, who is many days late, understands that taking Jinzhou is the top priority.

When they came to the outside of Jinzhou City, they saw that the tall city gate was closed, and it seemed that they had encountered a war. And the Tanma in front reported that there was a Qin division pursuing twenty miles north of the city.

Liu Gan came to the city and shouted loudly: "I am here to support, quickly open the city gate and let us in, and resist the coming Qin soldiers together." ”

And it is obviously impossible for the partial general on the city wall to open the city gate because of his words: "The general under the city, dare to ask the name?" ”

"I am the general under Zhanfeng, and I have this token as proof!" Liu Qian shook the token in his hand, but obviously, it was no longer effective at the moment.

The general on the city said: "Presumably you are the nameless, just ordered by the city lord, but some people call Zhan Feng's subordinates, and they all welcome in." With that, he commanded his subordinates to open the city gate and welcome Liu Gan and his party in.

Liu Gan was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that the city lord who knows his identity has no need to open the city gate at all. Because he is a big businessman, he is not the same traveler as Luoyang at all. However, when he saw the city lord, Liu Qian understood.

The man was a small man, his hair was meticulously combed, and the mustache on his lips was a big sign.

According to the introduction of the general, this person is the lord of Jinzhou City, Shengxing.

"The nameless city lord can come, Sheng is really honored!"

This city lord can be described as extremely polite, and he does not mention the difference between the two positions.

And Liu Gan asked directly: "I just don't know that you have already seen through my identity, so why do you want to let me into the city?" ”

Who knew that Sheng Xing laughed and said: "Dashang and Luoyang are all the children of the same clan, but that Daqin is a foreign race. Even if I die, I won't give this city away. ”

Liu Gan also understood when he heard this. This Shengxing knew that he couldn't hold it, so he could only find foreign aid, but at this time, there were no reinforcements, so in the end he could only look at Yecheng in the south, which is now Liu Gan.

The two integrated the forces in their hands and found that there were less than 20,000 people, and Liu Qian was quite depressed. But thinking that the city was already empty, and the rest were basically poor people who had broken hands and feet, or couldn't even get enough rations to get out of the city, Liu Gan was relieved.

Not long after the discussion, someone outside came in to report that Master Qin was less than ten miles away. The two looked at each other and hurried to the city wall.

Before the mighty Qin Shi appeared on the horizon, the ground trembled, as if something terrible was coming. Liu Qian knew that this was cavalry, a large-scale cavalry.

Sure enough, the Qin division that came to the front had nearly 3,000 cavalry. The cavalry is scattered and moves fast, so it is also the first to reach the city.

"Listen to the people in the city, hurry up and open the city gate and surrender, otherwise, on the day of the break, the whole city will be beheaded!" And a man rode near, and roared like a city.

After three times in a row, there was no movement, and he ran back again. In Liu Gan's field of vision, he saw that the man came to the middle of the team, in front of a person who looked like a leading general, and seemed to want him to report and ask for the next order.

It didn't take long for the cavalry to move again, they scattered, turned into two strands, bypassed the walls, and ran south.

Liu Qian said: "It seems that they are preparing to attack the city. ”

Sheng Xing also nodded and said, "I've also heard that it's the first time I saw Master Qin today, but I didn't expect it to be really as rumored to be." ”

"I want to hear about it." Liu Qian didn't understand, so he put on a look of asking for advice and listened attentively.

Sheng Xing said: "It is said that the Qin State has always been a tough method to attack the city. First, they would send a small number of cavalry to block the three roads, and then the main force would storm in one direction. If the enemy is going to retreat, then the hidden cavalry takes advantage of the situation to pursue and kill. And if you stick to it, it will be quickly breached. ”

"Oh? Why is that? Liu Qian was shocked when he heard this, and said curiously.

"Because they have crystal cannons in their hands."

Liu Gan had never heard of this thing, and asked, "What is the Crystal Energy Cannon?" ”

"Let's put it this way", Sheng Xing's face was full of bitterness, and explained: "A weapon that uses spar as an energy source, it is said to be able to pierce the three-zhang high city wall with one shot!" ”

Liu Qian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, can you imagine that there is such a siege weapon!

"Doesn't that, then, mean that we will be defeated?"

Sheng Xing sighed, the bitterness on his face did not decrease, and said, "Yes." If it weren't for the slow transportation of the crystal energy cannon, I am afraid that there would not be a complete city in the entire Luoyang territory now! ”
