In order to better dispel Shi Xiong's thoughts, Yun Zhonglong deliberately made Quartz so miserable, and after the two met, he asked Sima Lengjun to temporarily escort Quartz away and lock him up somewhere else. Only then did he walk up to Shi Xiong and said, "So far, what else do you have to say?" Do you think quartz can escape Skynet? ”

Shi Xiong raised his head and said: "Becoming the king and defeating the king, since it fell into your hands, I didn't think about getting out alive, kill if you want to, although I, Shi Xiong, am not a hero, but I am not a person who is afraid of death!" ”

Yun Zhonglong smiled slightly and said: "Whether you are dead or alive is not on my heart, and what you yourself have committed is the crime of raiding your family and exterminating your family; However, if you can cooperate with us, I dare not say that you will not die, but at least you can leave two bloodlines of the Shi Clan, so that the fireworks will not be cut off from the world from now on; If great things can be accomplished, not only will you not be a traitor who everyone hates, but you will become a national hero who can sing and cry, after all, there are only a few people who know the truth, and you are not people who tell the truth. ”

Shi Xiong was stunned for a long time before he said, "What do you want, and why do you make me believe in you?" ”

As soon as Yun Zhonglong heard this, he knew that the other party was tempted, and pursued after the victory: "We only need you to follow your original plan, use a trick to lure the Zhai people's army into the city, and then defeat the Zhai people by striking hard; Although I am not a gentleman, I am not a man who breaks his word and gets fat, and there is Xiangguo, Sima and the two adults are here, what are you afraid of? ”

Xiangguo Shangfu, Sima Leng Jun glanced at each other when he heard this, and nodded at the same time.

Shi Xiong thought for a long time, and finally spoke: "Okay, just let the old man do his best for all the soldiers and civilians in Chaoge City." ”

Yun Zhonglong nodded happily and said: "This is very good, first place him on the edge of Sima Mansion, and send people to set traps and defenses, just wait for the three-day period to arrive, you can defeat the Zhai army and lift the siege of Chaoge." ”

Xiangguo Shangfu and Sima Leng Jun also left under the escort of the guards.

In a nervous, excited and expectant mood, the three-day appointment with Zhai Ren is coming in a blink of an eye.

Yun Zhonglong personally went to the west gate of Chaoge to check the fortifications, the inside of the city gate has been emptied, enough to accommodate four or five people, and then the high inner city wall, so that it is naturally to strengthen the defense, even if the outer city is broken, there is an inner city can not be broken in a moment and a half. went to see the trap that he had carefully designed and buried at the gate of the city, and in order to open the trap at the critical moment, he replaced all the trustworthy sergeants, and waited with Whampoa and others to grasp the timing and proportion; and the hopeful soldiers and civilians who defended the country and defended the city, although they were not high-spirited, they also showed the momentum of desperately killing the enemy. During this period, he once again went out of the city to get in touch with Shang Luo and others, knowing that everything was arranged for them, and he even laid an ambush in a river north of Chaoge. In this way, this big battle can be said to be all ready, just waiting for the Zhai people to be fooled and come to attack the city.

It was night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and it was a good time for adultery, plunder, murder and arson.

Xiangguo Shangfu and Sima Lengjun had already led the 30,000 defenders who had barely gathered together, scattered in the fortifications in Chaoge City, quietly waiting for the upcoming life-and-death battle.

Yun Zhonglong and Sima Lengjun and others watched, and quietly put Shi Xiong down the city wall from the west city gate with a hanging basket, and then he got off the city wall to guard the city gate, this battle is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people, leaning on the heavy city gate, I can't help but be a little nervous; And Sima Lengjun, as the leader of the patriotic army, was naturally an outpost left on the city wall, so that he could command the defenders to fight against the Zhai army in a timely and effective manner.

In order to prevent the besiegers from digging tunnels and making the tall and strong walls become decorations, some important cities in ancient times would dig wide and deep ditches that were several tens of zhang deep in the city. It was when the dragon in the cloud saw these deep ditches that he thought of using traps to block the Zhai people from entering the city. Therefore, only dig a huge trap at the gate of the city, which is more than two zhang more than ten zhang deep, and then connect it with the ditch in the city, it becomes a bottomless pit that is bottomless and unimaginable to ordinary people. However, because the ditches are ready-made, as long as they are slightly deepened, it seems that the project is huge, but it does not cost much labor and financial resources. In order to kill and injure the Zhai people, many spears and blades were inserted at the bottom of the ditch, and on the top of the trap, a long log was used horizontally in the middle, one end was fixed in the solid ground, and the other end was tied with a rope, so that the rope could be cut at a critical moment, and the log would fall into the trap as soon as it was broken, and the planks and mud layers on the logs on both sides would also fall, and the people standing on it would naturally fall down. The precarious trap was dug at the gate of the city, which was highly confidential, and because now the army of Zhai people was besieging the city, and no one dared to go out of the city, they chose to start construction at night, and few people knew about this matter, even Shi Xiong, who was originally the city guard of the West City Gate, was first locked up, and then placed under house arrest, and there was no way to know the slightest bit of news.

Yun Zhonglong stood behind the city gate, looking at the trap behind him that could not see a trace at all, and in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he went to find Huangpu and the others who were hiding in a secret hole and waiting to cut the rope at any time. Seeing that they were all nervous and excited, he asked them to relax a little, and then went to the city gate again.

After about half an hour, in the nervous and excited anticipation of Yun Zhonglong and the others, there was a loud noise outside the silent city gate, first a loud noise, then silence, and then three long and two short nightingale calls, which were the pre-agreed signal to enter the city.

The dragon in the cloud ordered the dozen or so people who stayed behind to open the city gate, only to listen to "Squeak!" The sound rang out, and the heavy gates slowly opened. The door was only opened by a single line, and someone could not wait to force it open from the outside. He hurriedly led more than a dozen people to retreat, leaving only a few people in Huangpu hidden in the secret cave, and the rest were all pulled to the city wall by the hanging baskets prepared earlier.

The Zhai cavalry poured into the city like a tide, but the city was open, and there was no place to hide, so they rushed into a big road in front of them, the avenue was very long, leading directly to the inner city, and on both sides were thick walls several zhang high.

At this moment, piles of raging fires burned in the city, and countless human heads appeared on the city walls, and then arrows and stones rained down on the Zhai cavalry sandwiched within the high walls.

At this time, under the leadership of Shi Xiong, General Fox, the general of the Zhai people, entered the city, and suddenly felt a frenzy in his heart, when he found that there was no one in the city to guard the city gate, and let them enter the city without the slightest resistance, but Shi Xiong had already arranged it, and then looked at the other party with great satisfaction, and then ordered the cavalry to enter the city in a big way.

Shi Xiong saw that the stepping stones from the corner of the city to the city wall had been blocked, and then saw that the Zhai people who were sandwiched in the corridor were attacked by the guards on the high wall and fell off their horses one after another, and died unexpectedly, so he knew that this time the Zhai people would inevitably suffer heavy losses, but the Zhai people had a large army, tens of thousands of people, and they were not afraid of death. However, after thinking about it, if the Zhai people failed to attack the city, they could be regarded as doing their best to defend the country; If Chaoge City was broken and there was an agreement with Zhai Ren, it would not be a good thing, so he decided to wait and see what happened.

The battle in the city continued, and because the Zhai people were crowded in the seemingly wide passage, they were killed and wounded for a while, while the guards on the high wall suffered limited damage. It's just that the cavalry of the Zhai people is too fast, and after paying thousands of lives, some people have already approached the inner city gate at the end of the passage. The inner city gate is far less thick than the outer city gate, but the Zhai people don't have the tools to attack the city for the time being, so it won't be a big deal for a while.

Yunzhong Long saw that there were five or six thousand Zhai people's army gathered in the city, and even more people were slamming the inner city gate, although this was quickly killed by the defenders of the city in the city, but he also pinched a cold sweat, if it was really broken through the inner city by the Zhai people, then the situation he had carefully arranged would become a decoration, and Chaoge City would also be destroyed. Suddenly, a long howl resounded through the night sky, and he shouted, "Immediately do it, drive out Zhai Kou, and guard Chaoge!" It was the order for Whampoa and others to cut the rope and lay down the trap, and at the same time, it also boosted the morale of the repeatedly frustrated defenders against the Zhai people, so as to enhance everyone's enthusiasm.

Then, I heard the guards shouting in the entire Chaoge City, "Drive out Zhai Kou and guard Chaoge!" ”

After a while, at the gate of Chaoge West City, there was a long-lost loud bang, dozens of Zhai cavalry should fall, fell into the trap, and let out endless screams, and the Zhai cavalry poured in from outside the city, there were many people who did not have time to stop, and followed in the footsteps of the people, who were fortunate enough to stop on the edge of the trap, looking at the bottomless pit in front of them, which was particularly terrifying in the dark night, listening to the screams of the brothers of the same clan, and did not know how to deal with themselves for a while.

Yun Zhonglong found Sima Lengjun, who was standing on the city wall and commanding the defenders to attack the Zhai people outside the city, and said: "It's time to throw logs and boulders under the city, and the only way to block the city gate is to go first; Otherwise, the trap will soon be filled by Zhai Ren. "Although the trap connects the ditches dug in the city, as long as it is not something that flows, the trap can be filled quickly.

Sima Lengjun couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the Zhai army had suffered countless casualties, while the guards had few casualties. Hearing this, he immediately ordered: "Put boulders and logs, and teach Zhai people to come and go!" ”

The city has already suffered heavy casualties, rivers of blood, corpses are piled up, the Zhai army was originally braving the arrows and stones on the city, rushing into the city, now not only the corpses of their victims are blocked, but also the city head, throwing down logs and boulders.

The Zhai people suddenly suffered more casualties, but the city gate was blocked by corpses, stones, and giant trees.

Sima Leng Jun watched Zhai Ren still step on the mountain of corpses to attack the city, and couldn't help but look at the dragon in the cloud with concern: "Ripples, this is not a way, they will get closer and closer to the city wall!" ”

Yun Zhonglong looked at the city, then looked into the city, and said: "Lord Sima, you can rest assured, as long as you hold on for an hour, you can clear the Zhai people in the city, and then notify Shang Luo and others outside the city, and naturally you can repel them!" ”

Sima Jun nodded coldly and said, "I hope so, I still have to solve the city first, and leave it to me here!" ”

The dragon in the cloud bowed his head and said, "Okay, I'll go to the city to help." So saying, he went into the city and slew it.

At this moment, a Zhai cavalry walked up to General Fox and said loudly: "The general is not good, our retreat has been blocked, there is a trap at the city gate, and the city gate has also been blocked." ”

General Fox was taken aback and lost his voice: "What? Instead, he looked at Shixiong to the side.

Shi Xiong saw that there were fewer and fewer Zhai people entering the city, and too many Zhai people in the passage died on the spot, so he immediately smiled and said, "Hahahahaha!" I didn't think you would have it today! As he spoke, he rushed towards the fox general.

The two were not far apart, and they suddenly attacked, and the fox general Rao was battle-hardened, and he was also carried by him and rolled off the horse.

Shi Xiong pressed him under him, took out the short sword hidden on his body, and stabbed him.

General Fox was not an ordinary person, grabbed his wrist, rolled over, and pressed him to the ground.

After all, Shi Xiong is a city guard who is known for his resourcefulness, in terms of martial arts, skills, how can he be the opponent of the Zhai people's fierce generals, he wants to knock the other party to the ground, but he is powerless several times, but his wrist was grabbed by the other party to death, I saw that the fox general's eyes widened angrily, and he shouted, and the short sword stabbed him in the chest.

At this time, the army of more than 4,000 Zhai people who entered the city had already discounted more than 1,000 people, and the city gate was blocked, and there were traps blocking the retreat. Without follow-up troops, the Zhai people no longer risked their lives to advance into the passage in order to break through the defenses of the inner city gate, but surrounded the leading general, General Fox.

Seeing that he and the others had become lonely, General Fox couldn't help but look at Shi Xiong, who was stabbed in the chest by himself and lying motionless on the ground, if he hadn't fallen for this person, why would he be like this.

Yun Zhonglong didn't expect that Shi Xiong would tear his face with the Zhai generals at this time, thinking about it left and right, maybe he had already saved the heart of death, otherwise, he would not have killed himself so quickly. I know that time is life now, and the sooner the Zhai people in the city are cleared, there will be less danger of breaking the city in Chaoge City, and the more security will be for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city. Standing on the city wall more than ten zhang high, grabbed a hanging basket, tied the rope to the wooden stake at the head of the city, and held the Feiyun Sword, the whole person was like a whirlwind, condescendingly swept towards the fox general who was guarded by the Zhai people in the middle.

Before the person landed, swinging the sword was a 'sword to fall into the city', and rushed towards the Zhai people in front of him.

The Zhai soldiers were already stunned when they saw someone jumping down from such a high city wall, like a god descending from the heavens, and when they saw that this person was actually the dragon in the clouds who was injured and broke out of the siege of the Zhai people's army that day, they beat a drum in their hearts. Originally, they were deeply surrounded by the defense of the country, and their morale had been seriously frustrated, and at this time, seeing the reincarnation of this invincible god of war was even more discouraged. He even forgot to shoot arrows at him, as if he were invincible myths and legends.
