Chapter 344 Countermeasures

"How many troops did the lord bring this time?" Xu Huang was not hypocritical, and asked calmly. Since it is destined to be a tragic siege of the city, it is natural to count all the troops.

"Those who can be used to defend the city have 2,000 iron eagle warriors and 10,000 Qi Jijun; Those that can be used to chase the enemy are all ambushed outside the city, including 1,000 Xuanjia cavalry led by Zhao Yun, 10,000 Han army iron cavalry, and 20,000 Han army iron cavalry led by Cao Xing. "The specific strength, Xu Huang, the coach, naturally has the right to know.

Xu Huang thought about it for a while, and said solemnly:

"If the last battle is launched tomorrow, the enemy will not have time to adjust, so I judge that the north gate will still be the enemy's main direction of attack!

"In terms of troops, I want to distribute them like this: more than 130,000 ordinary troops, 30,000 at each gate, and the remaining more than 10,000 people stay in the city; nearly 30,000 primary special troops, with about 7,000 allocated to each city gate; 6,000 people were arranged at the north gate of the Beiwei army, 4,000 at each of the other gates, and the remaining 3,000 or so were also arranged in the city as a reserve army.

"If you can, I implore the lord to bring the 10,000 Qi family troops to the north gate;

"I want to personally supervise the battle at the North Gate, and I implore the lord to sit in the Yamen and lead the armies left behind in the city, as well as the 2,000 Iron Eagle Rui soldiers you brought, to coordinate the overall situation and rescue the Quartet! I don't know if it's a good arrangement? ”

"What do you two think?" Ye Teng looked at Chen Ming and Huang Yao.

"We don't know any of this, I only dare to guarantee that if the Yuan army launches a decisive battle tomorrow, we will lead the Euphorbia to throw the enemy down from the city!" Chen Ming's voice was calm and powerful! Huang Yao also nodded vigorously!

"Well, that's a good sound! The defense work will be arranged according to Gongming's opinion, you go first, I still have something to discuss with Gongming! Ye Teng got up with a smile and patted the shoulders of the two of them and said.

"No!" Chen Ming and Huang Yao agreed in unison and turned to leave.

Seeing Chen Ming and Huang Yao leave, Ye Teng said in a low voice: "Do you have a complete grasp of the actions of the enemy army in the city?" ”

"It's all under control!" Xu Huang said.

"Let's go, let's go to the county government first, and arrest all the enemy's internal affairs tonight, and then interrogate and rebel overnight, otherwise I am afraid of changes!" I hope that there will be a chance to plan and teach the enemy a profound lesson! Ye Teng said in a deep voice.

"My lord, please!" Xu Huang got up and led the way.

——————————

Before returning to the Yamen, Ye Teng asked Xu Huang to lead him to the military camp first, put down the mobile teleportation array, and ordered the Iron Eagle Ruishi to come out first, and then the Qi family's army.

After putting down the mobile teleportation array, the two returned to the yamen as soon as possible, Xu Huang quickly summoned the main generals and civil officials of Lingshou City, and after introducing Ye Teng and saluting and greetings, Xu Huang arranged the transfer of troops as quickly as possible.

After the guards left, Ye Teng and Xu Huang arranged the arrest of the Yuan family as quickly as possible. With the participation of 3,000 Beiwei troops and 2,000 Iron Eagle Warriors, under the leadership of Jinyiwei, the Yuan family in Lingshou City was unexpectedly wiped out! Through separate interrogations, rebellion, the threat of death and torture, and the lure of official positions, many of the backbone of the Yuan family simply surrendered to the forces of Tianma City.

After all this was done, it was already midnight, and after several days of running, it was inevitable that he would be tired, so Ye Teng was looking for a place to rest in the county office. Anyway, everything is ready, just wait for the Yuan family to contact Neiying, and then think about how to plan it.

——————————

In the early morning of the next day, the earth-shattering drums outside the city disturbed Ye Teng's sweet dream!

It seems that the Yuan family really launched the final attack!

Since the enemy army in the city should have been cleared, safety and stability will not be a problem! Ye Teng held 2,000 iron eagle warriors, 3,000 Beiwei troops, 10,000 Han army iron cavalry inherent in the city, and more than 10,000 ordinary troops.

"My lord, before dawn today, the leaders of the original enemy army who have surrendered received an order written by Yuan Shaojun's division Xu You, asking them to divide into two ways at half past nine tonight, all the way to open the north city gate, and all the way to kill people and set fire to the city to create chaos! I have replied to the other party according to your previous instructions, 'Swear to complete the mission'! "The leader of the Jinyi Guard in the city has come to report.

"Good!" Ye Teng slapped the table table with his palm excitedly, and his attitude was relaxed: "At that time, you will lead the Jinyi Guard, find a few open places in the city, burn a few more fires for the people outside the city, and if the manpower is not enough, you can send some ordinary troops to assist." As for the matter of the North Gate, leave it to me! ”

"No!" The leader of the Jinyi Guard saluted and left.

"Someone!" Ye Teng shouted loudly.

"My lord, what do you command?" Wan Hao walked in briskly from outside. Since neither he nor Dian Wei had arranged the task of defending the city, they followed Ye Teng.

"Zhongxin, go and tell the main generals of the sect that the enemy's attack will last at least until ten o'clock at night, let them allocate their forces reasonably, and call for help in time if they can't resist it!" Ye Teng said.

"Don't worry, my lord, I will let people tell the generals in every direction." Wan Hao bowed.

Watching Wan Hao turn around and leave, Ye Teng muttered to himself: "It seems that we have to arrange it well and send a parting gift to the Yuan family!" ”

——————————

The fierce siege warfare has never stopped since the early morning.

The Yuan army really no longer cared about casualties, and attacked at the same time, only hearing the sound of drums and not the sound of gongs from beginning to end. The defenders of Lingshou City are gritting their teeth and holding on.

Ye Teng has been sending people to pay attention to the progress of the battle, and every half an hour, someone will report the battle situation of the four gates to him separately.

The soldiers of the four gates were very valiant, and by noon, the proportion of the defenders had been killed by more than 10%; By dusk, more than 30 per cent of the casualties were killed, and almost everyone was wounded.

Helplessly, before dark, Ye Teng had to send 1,000 Beiwei troops and 3,000 ordinary troops to support each of the three directions in the east, west and south; And he took Dian Wei and Wan Hao to personally lead 2,000 Iron Eagle Rui soldiers to the north city, and took the lead in driving all the enemy troops who climbed to the top of the city to the city, so that the soldiers at the head of the city could get some time to rest and treat.

Since the enemy is destined to fight at night, if he doesn't make some preparations, Ye Teng is really worried that the city will be attacked by the enemy army. Although even if the enemy army attacked, he was confident that he would drive them out, and even cooperated with Zhao Yun, Cao Xing and others outside the city to inflict heavy casualties on the enemy army, but the losses in the city would definitely not be small.

Ye Teng led 2,000 Iron Eagle Warriors to help Xu Huang defend from half past five to half past seven, greatly reducing the burden on the defenders of the North Gate and giving them two hours to rest and respite in order to cope with the still tragic battle in the future.

As soon as 7:30 arrived, Ye Teng led the team to leave the city, and transferred back the 3,000 Beiwei troops who supported the various gates, and together with the 10,000 dismounted Han army iron cavalry, set traps on the street behind the north gate.

Those who participated in the ambush battle included 2,000 Iron Eagle Warriors, 3,000 Beiwei Army, and 10,000 Han Army Iron Cavalry. 3,000 ordinary troops, still used to maintain law and order in the city.

Ye Teng was afraid that the enemy army would not die fast enough, so he arranged hundreds of siege crossbows in the streets behind the city gate, and equipped each siege crossbow with enough crossbow arrows to prepare to turn Yuan's army into a skewer.

The time gradually slipped to half past nine, and many directions in the city were lit up with sky-high fires. Behind the city gate hole at the north gate and above the city head, there was a sudden sound of shouting and screaming that was several times more intense than before! Of course, these are Ye Teng's subordinates who perform realistically according to the pre-arranged arrangements.

After a while, the city gate slowly opened!
