Chapter 648: The Stars Will Dimm!【Seventh Update】
And Hou Junji returned to the barracks, because he had just been forced to lose face by the heaven-level qi breaking arrow, his face was gloomy, and he ordered the Flying Bear Army to step up the attack, and be sure to take Lingfeng City tonight!
Under Hou Junji's military order, the soldiers below attacked the city more powerfully.
In the next very short period of time, two sieges on the city wall, and the two armies fought, the difference in the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under Meng Yi's command was revealed, if it were not for Meng Yi to endure the injuries in his body to help, the city gate would have been broken long ago.
But this is still because Hou Junji is afraid that the heaven-level qi breaking arrow has not joined the siege, or even if Meng Yi is there, he can't stop it.
During this time, the Flying Bear Army has been besieging the city, and a large number of soldiers died in the siege battle, not to mention one or two thousand people.
But Meng Yi, who defended the city, was not easy, and the few soldiers who died in the battle were 10,000.
As a result, the entire city wall was littered with corpses.
But fortunately, the Flying Bear Army attacked late at night and Mingjin withdrew its troops.
"Whew!"
"It's finally a retreat!"
Ling Fengcheng, watching the Flying Bear Army below slowly retreat by the light of the fire, Meng Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These two times the head of Lingfeng City was attacked, but it made Meng Yi very nervous, but fortunately he was repelled in the end, otherwise Lingfeng City would have been broken a long time ago.
But thinking of today's loss, Meng Yi could only smile bitterly in his heart.
The battle has not been long, the army has lost 10,000, and this is still in the case of defending the city, if it is a head-on battle, the soldiers under his command and the Flying Bear Army may be defeated.
At this time, the city lord of Lingfeng City walked to Meng Yi's side, held a bowl of broth in his hand, handed it to Meng Yi, and said, "General, drink some broth! ”
Meng Yi nodded, took the broth and drank it, and said, "I'm tired of the city lord to find more rolling wood, and there is no rolling wood that can't be held in the next battle." ”
"Okay, I'll go later. ”
The city lord answered, looked at the corpses on the head of the city, sighed, and said, "General Meng, our losses are too heavy!"
"If this continues, can we hold Lingfeng City?"
"Even if I can't keep it, I have to keep it!"
Meng Yi's eyes were tenacious, and he said in a deep voice: "As a general, I will never allow a city to be lost in my own hands!"
The city lord looked at it, sighed lightly, and said no more, "Then I will go down and prepare the rolling wood for defending the city." ”
"Good!"
The city lord didn't say anything more, turned around and left, but glanced at Meng Yi more as he left, with some intriguing meaning in his eyes.
......
"The Emperor Star moves westward, the light is strong, and the star is dim!"
"The power of the dynasty!"
On the top floor of a towering attic in Yuzhou, an old man looked up at the sky and muttered, "There is going to be a dynasty in the west of Yuzhou?"
"The general trend of Yuzhou is difficult to measure, it seems that the imperial conscription order must be accelerated!"
......
In the Flying Bear Army account, Hou Junji sat in the main seat, stared at the people standing below, and said lightly: "You said that your master wants to surrender the city, why should I believe you?"
If Meng Yi was here, he would definitely be shocked when he saw this person standing, because this person was a close confidant of the city lord of Lingfeng City.
At this time, this cronie had a flattering smile on his face, and said: "The general is mighty, how can my master deceive you?" He had already poisoned the broth that Meng Yi drank, and now Meng Yi can't exert his true qi all over his body, as long as the general rushes up, Meng Yi will die, and Ling Fengcheng is also the general's. ”
"Moreover, the master also asked me to tell the general that except for the east gate of Lingfeng City, the other three gates are only guarded by one or two hundred people, and if the general attacks, it will definitely be easy to take it!"
"Hehe, your master is funny!"
Hou Junji sneered and said, "If the general wants to attack the other three gates, he will definitely use troops, how can he not alarm Meng Yi?
Or......
"Zheng!"
The soldiers beside Hou Junji drew their swords out of their sheaths, staring at this person with murderous eyes.
"Plop. ”
The man was frightened, knelt on the ground, and hurriedly said: "I will never dare to lie to the general, if there is a lie, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky." ”
"The last thing Ben will believe is that there are five thunders in the sky!"
Hou Junji stood up, walked up to this person, took the sword symbolizing the identity of the lord, put it on his neck, and said coldly: "I'll give you five seconds to say a reason that convinces me." ”
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
"Grain and grass, grain and grass!"
The man was very frightened, and said urgently: "Meng Yi They are a large army of grain, and their grain and grass were transported back from the West Gate before the army attacked the city, if the general sends someone to chase after him now, he will definitely be able to catch up." ”
Hou Junji's eyes lit up suddenly, if they could get a large amount of grain and grass, it would be easier for them to take the Tiger Pass and then defend it.
He immediately glanced at the lieutenant general beside him, and the lieutenant general signaled that he understood, and immediately sent scouts to Ximen.
More than half an hour later, the adjutant general came back and said to Hou Junji: "General, outside the West Gate, a large number of traces of cars passing by have been found, and it is very likely that they are grain trucks. ”
"The grain carts are slow, and if we send our troops to chase them now, we should be able to catch up before dawn. ”
"Good!"
Hou Junji was overjoyed, and immediately said: "You immediately take five thousand flying bear troops to chase after you, and you must bring back the grain and grass for me!"
"Yes!"
After the deputy general left, Hou Junji laughed, pulled up the city lord's cronies who had been kneeling on the ground for more than half an hour, and said with a smile: "I misunderstood your master before, it was me who was wrong, you wait in the barracks first, and I will let you lead people to attack the city, so as not to mislead your master's kindness." ”
The man breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and hurriedly responded.
Hou Junji didn't say anything more, immediately walked out of the account, and gave himself a personal look before leaving.
The soldiers signaled, and after Hou Junji left, he drew his knife and cut the head of the city lord's cronies.
Ke Ling's guy was killed without any reaction.
"General, the matter is settled. ”
Hearing the report of his own soldiers, Hou Junji nodded, he didn't plan to let that city lord live, because he hated betrayed people.
Soon, Hou Junji arranged for the army to attack again, the difference was that this time he himself led 30,000 men to attack the east gate head-on, and the rest of the lieutenants took people to attack the other three gates.
"General, the enemy is attacking again!"
At the head of the city, Meng Yi watched the Flying Bear Army attack again, his face was solemn, because he saw that the enemy's main general had divided his troops, and he was obviously going to attack the other three gates.
"Immediately let the city lord take six thousand soldiers and horses to guard the other three gates. ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers went down to give the order, and the city lord immediately took away six thousand people, and sneered a few times before leaving, Meng Yi, if you want to accompany Lingfeng City to live and die together, then you can die now!
Soon, the Flying Bear Army, carrying bows and arrows at the head of the city, had already arrived at the city and began to attack the city.
And the city lord handed over 6,000 people to his cronies and brought them to other places, but he himself took more than a hundred city lord's palace guards to the east gate of Lingfeng City.
