After eating enough dry food, drinking enough water and resting for more than an hour, Sun Kewang ordered to storm Shanyin County again, although Sun Kewang and all the henchmen reached a tacit understanding, but they still wanted to fight again, after all, the temptation of ransacking Shanyin County alone was too great, and they still wanted to fight again in the midst of gains and losses, and they really couldn't play soy sauce.

The people's army attacked frantically, the county soldiers defended tenaciously, the people's army rested, the county soldiers also rested, and after three rounds of tragic defensive battles, many county soldiers have grown up, no longer like the new soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time, when they saw the corpses and blood all over the ground, or frightened hands and feet weakened, or vomited, the non-stop killing has made them numb, the only thing that supports them is the firm belief in protecting their wives and children.

The people's army was worried that the losses would be too great and would be annexed by others, and they all wanted to preserve their strength, and the morale of those who suffered from gains and losses was not very high, and they rose from it, although their attack was fierce, but it did not last long, and the morale quickly fell, which greatly reduced the pressure on the county soldiers defending the city, and at the same time inspired them to defend the city to the death.

After losing more than 200 elites, Sun Kewang took a short rest, and then continued to attack the city, the major henchmen and leaders comprehended, when they waved their troops to attack the city, the roar of killing was shocking, and the momentum was very scary, but they were basically playing soy sauce, and when they rushed to the range of the bow and arrow, they withdrew, and continued to attack after a short rest.

Wei Wenshan and Qu Bo, who came to the front line of the city to command the battle, saw the abnormality of the people's army, and there must be a demon when things are abnormal, and the two of them are now very suspicious, and they both think that Sun Kewang is playing a trick of the suspicious soldiers, and they want to fool them to relax their vigilance and take the opportunity to seize the city, so they dare not be careless and order strict vigilance.

The people's army tossed for a while, and when they saw that the sky was getting dark, they collected their troops and returned to the camp to rest, and the soldiers and civilians defending the city breathed a sigh of relief, but no one dared to be negligent, who dared to guarantee that the people's army would not come in the middle of the night to steal the city?

This night is the longest and most difficult night in life for the soldiers and civilians in the city, if Sun Kewang and the others know that they will die of laughter, they will sleep soundly.

The next day, until the sky was completely bright, the people's army lazily got up to bury the pot to make rice, and after eating slowly, they launched an attack carelessly, and the roar of killing still shook the sky, but the offensive, the second round of attack, only two people died, a few were wounded, and they tossed back and forth a few times, and the people's army simply didn't bother to move, just stood in place, and roared loudly in their mouths.

What the hell is going on?

Wei Wenshan and Qu Bo looked at each other, guessing what the strange purpose of the people's army was, so they could only prepare for war cautiously, and at the same time send people out of the city to investigate, Sun Kewang was unable to trap the county seat due to insufficient troops, and the contact between the defenders in the city and the outside world was still unimpeded.

At noon, the people's army with soy sauce withdrew to the camp for dinner, Sun Kewang and several of his henchmen were discussing how to give an account to Zhang Xianzhong, and the scouts crawled in to report, and found a cavalry unit of the Ming army in the east, looking at the flag equipment, it should be Gao Jie's troops, and they are galloping in the direction of the county at this moment, and it is estimated that this will almost reach the county seat.

"What?" Sun Kewang was so shocked that the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground, according to the news found by the scouts, Gao Jie's troops did not have cavalry, just all infantry, but all equipped with muskets, according to the calculation of the foot, it would take two and a half to three days to reach Shanyin County at the earliest, where did this cavalry come from?

"No way, you must be mistaken." A leader grabbed the scout and shouted loudly, Gao Jie's troops are all infantry, how could he get here so quickly, it is difficult to fly, it must be the scout who made a mistake.

The scout was frightened, but he didn't need to answer, the answer had been revealed, and the city was filled with a sea of cheers, and there was no need to guess that the reinforcements had really arrived.

Sun Kewang and the others looked at each other, they didn't know what to do for a while, they all had a bad feeling in their hearts, if they couldn't take Shanyin County and were blocked by the Ming army, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Wenzhao, Qin Liangyu's army was outflanked on all sides, and there was really a danger of annihilation of the whole army, which was really fatal.

Sun Kewang and others discussed for a while, and they all felt that the reinforcements of the Ming army had arrived, and the morale of the army was low, and they could not fight again, so they had to send someone to report to Zhang Xianzhong, who was leading the army, and let him decide.

Zhang Xianzhong was leading an army of 200,000 to hurry up, and when he received Sun Kewang's report, he was stunned for a long time before he was extremely angry and roared, "Speed up, speed up the way for Lao Tzu." ”

In any case, the county seat of Shanyin must be captured, otherwise, he will become the old turtle in the urn, and he will be beaten by Qin Liangyu and other officials and soldiers.

Zhang Jiajun was hurrying for his life, and the people in Shanyin City were cheering and greeting the reinforcements who arrived, but they saw that the reinforcements were only a thousand people, and they were all exhausted, and they all felt uneasy.

In order to appease the people, Wang Liancheng, the commander of the first battalion, hurriedly explained that the main army was coming at full speed, but it would take about two days to arrive, and they only needed to hold on for two days.

With these words, the people in the city were relieved, they could hold on for a day and a night alone, and with this thousand troops to help defend the city, it should be no problem to defend the city for two or three days.

Wang Liancheng pacified the people, did not stop for a moment, went directly to the city to inspect the fortifications at the head of the city, he was originally a soldier under the command of Lu Hongniang, with a flexible brain, excellent performance in training, promoted to captain, participated in several battles, and performed quite well, Zhu Jian asked Gao Jie to form an independent battalion of the Royal Guards, and officers at all levels were basically drawn from Lu Hongniang's Phoenix Legion, Li Xin's Shenji Battalion and Cao Bianjiao's Wolf Battalion.

To tell the truth, Wang Liancheng is still competent in commanding a company's troops, and it is a bit difficult to command a battalion, but there is too little talent to run, Zhu Jian can only catch ducks on the shelves, and Wang Liancheng can only take the position of commander of the first battalion.

Wang Liancheng has commanded the company to participate in several offensive and defensive battles, and he also has a certain amount of actual combat experience, he went to the city to inspect, and he can still see at a glance where the fortifications are insufficient, need to be re-reinforced, and the deployment of troops, etc., so that Wei Wenshan and Qu Bo are admired.

"Wang Yingguan, can you make the main force a little faster?" Wei Wenshan rubbed his hands and asked, Zhang Xianzhong's main army is 200,000 people, and a thousand people are not enough to stuff their teeth.

Wang Liancheng smiled bitterly and spread his hands, his first battalion was able to come so quickly, it all relied on Gao Jie to gather all the war horses and crossbow horses in the army, including his own mounts, and let the soldiers of the first battalion ride, and those who rushed to reinforcements first, when they arrived at the county seat, not to mention that the soldiers were exhausted, even the war horses were tired and fell.

"I see...... Yo, there it is. ”

Wei Wenshan understood that the battalion under the command of Wang Liancheng was not a cavalry battalion, but an infantry on a war horse.
