Chapter 56: Defending Jinyan (Medium) (New Books for Recommendation and Collection)

Outside Jinyan City, a round of early sun has risen, the sky is gradually changing from dark to bright, the corpses of the officers and soldiers under Jinyan City have been removed, only pools of red blood remain, telling everyone what kind of tragic battle happened here yesterday.

In the big tent of the Yong'an Army, Gao Chi frowned, and snorted coldly: "It seems that I really underestimated this group of bandits, and I didn't expect that their combat effectiveness was no less than that of the regular army!" ”

Fu Yu was also full of worry: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that there are such fierce thieves in this world, and the five siege towers we brought from Hongding were exhausted in one day."

After a while, Man Wencai said softly: "Lord Gao, the thieves are in full swing, we can besiege but not attack, when the grain and grass in the city are exhausted, the thieves have no food to eat, and Jinyan City will be destroyed without attacking." ”

"Although Lord Man's plan is seconds, but the lower officials think that it will not work to deal with Jinyan City, the official warehouse in the city has enough grain and grass, even if it is trapped for a month or two, the thief army will not run out of food, and then the news of the king will reach the Fengdu ......", Ma Tong said with some humility.

If you only talk about official positions, Ma Tong is a real thousand households, and he has 2,000 county soldiers under his command, and Manwen is just Gao Chi's staff and ministers, and he doesn't even have an official position, but Gao Chi is a distant relative of King Yong'an, and he has an elite army of 2,000 people.

"It's strange to say, yesterday the fierce fight all day, Su Thief did not show his head, this is a bit unreasonable, according to the news I got, Su Thief, as a spiritual leader, must take the lead in every battle to boost morale, this matter must be strange, what do you think?" Gao Chi is indeed a person who has seen the world, and he found the clue at a glance, and asked with a frown.

"Could something have happened in the city? Or is he too badly injured to fight? ”

"What could have changed? Infighting? This is unlikely, Su Jun has an absolute position among the thieves in Tsing Yi, and everyone must obey his orders unconditionally, and no one will dare to challenge his authority."

"Su Thief is strong in martial arts, and it is unlikely that he will be seriously injured."

"Wait until the city is captured, and then lead the cavalry to kill? But what's the point of that? Jinyan City is broken, Su Jun's hundreds of light horsemen can't become any climate at all, they can only sit and wait to die, which is not in line with Su Jun's cunning character", Ma Tong was also puzzled, and couldn't figure out what medicine Su Jun was selling at this time.

Fu Yu snorted on the side, and said angrily: "Su Jun, this king and eight lambs, is he a coward, he can't have sneaked away, right?" ”

Fu Yu's words woke up the person in the dream, Gao Chi, Man Wencai, and Ma Tong's faces suddenly changed greatly, could it be that Su Jun really used a trick to hide from the sky and the sea, and secretly Chen Cang, at this time Su Jun had already evacuated from Jinyan County with a large army?

However, there are no more than 1,000 Tsing Yi thieves under Su Jun, although the number of people defending the city yesterday was less than 1,000, but there are always seven or eight hundred, could it be that Su Jun only led a small number of henchmen out of the city, he really planned to abandon Jinyan City, abandon Lu Shun and the group of Tsing Yi thieves in the city?

Gao Chi thought about it carefully, as a bandit leader who escaped from the battle and abandoned other bandits, it was a strange thing, after all, his life was his own, who didn't cherish it? How can anyone be so stupid as to put their lives in for someone else for no reason!

"Get up, don't fucking lie on the ground like a dead dog."

"Fucking take your weapons and stand up, now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, the city is broken, and no one can escape."

"Sanlengzi, weren't you kid quite capable yesterday? How do you start playing dead now? ”

Lu Shun, accompanied by several thieves in Tsing Yi, inspected the four city heads and woke up the death row prisoners lying on the ground one by one.

This group of death row prisoners is a brave and ruthless person, and now they have just regained their freedom, and they are facing the attack of the official army, everyone knows in their hearts, and the only way out is to hold on to Su Jun's reinforcement, otherwise the city will be simply imprisoned, and it is estimated that the head will be cut off directly by the official army.

Everyone got up from the city with sleepy eyes, and the loud trumpets and agitated war drums outside Jinyan City had already sounded, and after resting for a whole night, this group of hateful Yong'an troops formed a military formation again, ready to start a new round of siege warfare.

On the first day of the siege, the death row prisoners in Jinyan County were caught off guard by the "siege tower" of the Yongan Army, and were almost attacked by the official army. Fortunately, the two hundred Tsing Yi thieves beside Lu Shun were not afraid of death, and broke the five "siege towers" in time, saving the momentum of decline.

On the second day of the siege, the Yong'an army changed its offensive strategy, and used trebuchets to continuously attack the not very strong walls of Jinyan City, and cooperated with the small-scale siege battles of the Yongan army to consume a large number of strategic resources such as Jinyan City's reserves, such as oil, rolling stones, and sasswood.

On the third day of the siege, the Yong'an army may have found that its own losses were too serious and no longer organized large-scale strikes, but only harassed with a small group of officers and troops, forcing the thieves in Jinyan City to not be able to get an effective rest, because of the tacit understanding between the two armies, basically there were no casualties on both sides on the third day, perhaps this is the last calm before the storm.

Today is the fourth day after the siege of the Yongan Army!

The dangerous breath is filling the air endlessly, Lu Shun has not closed his eyes for a whole day and night, his whole body is as heavy as being filled with lead, and the weapon in his hand seems to weigh a thousand catties, as a bandit who has been dealing with the official army all the year round and is always on the verge of life and death, Lu Shun knows that today, that is, today, the Yong'an army will launch the final general attack, maybe after today, many people will die in Jinyan City!

"Brethren cheer up, this bunch of dog crumbs are coming over......"

The death row prisoner beside him roared loudly, Lu Shun raised his head heavily, and the fully equipped chain armor sword and shield soldiers finally dispatched, a large area of black pressure, since the first day of the siege, they have not moved, as if they are like a group of cheetahs ready to hunt, waiting for the best opportunity to shoot and kill the opponent with one blow.

The catapult behind the chainmail sword and shield soldier made a deafening loud noise, and huge stones had been thrown up in the air, tumbling and rolling towards the head of Jinyan City, these stones seemed to be slow, but in the blink of an eye, they reached the top of their heads, and then smashed down with strong inertia.

"Huh!?"

Lu Shundi's pupils contracted suddenly, and he watched the boulder slowly fall towards him, but his feet were heavy but he couldn't move.

"Lu Ye, flash away"

There was a loud bang, just when the huge stone was about to smash on Lu Shun's body, a Tsing Yi thief jumped out of nowhere and pushed Lu Shun away, the Tsing Yi thief no longer had the strength to dodge after knocking Lu Shun away, the boulder ruthlessly smashed into the Tsing Yi thief's body, flattening his entire lower body, seeing that Lu Shun was fine, the frenzied light in the eyes of the Tsing Yi thief gradually disappeared, a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, his head tilted, and there was no breath.
