Chapter 158: Waiting for the Opportunity (1200 Equalizers)

"Lord Zhongcheng, why is this?" Lei Wanchun blurted out, now the situation has reached such a critical level, and killing Yin Ziqi is the only chance to win in Suiyang City, and now with a sharp weapon like the Eight Bull Crossbow, shooting Yin Ziqi is no longer an impossible task, why does Lord Zhongcheng want to stop it at this time?

Li You and Xu Yuan on the side were silent, as if they had guessed Zhang Xun's thoughts, and as they expected, Zhang Xun came up with his own opinion, "Now that the reinforcements have not arrived, even if we can kill Yin Ziqi, we are powerless to encircle and annihilate the rebels. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info these are the people of my Tang Dynasty, I can't bear to see this scene; on the other hand, I Suiyang City, although there are not many people in the city, but I can still hold on for a few more days, if I wait until Zhang Zhongshu's reinforcements arrive, and then snipe Yin Ziqi, I will be able to build a complete battle. ”

If the eight-bull crossbow is used, then it is very likely that the rebels will scatter and flee because of the shooting of Yin Ziqi, and once the siege of Suiyang is lifted, the soldiers and civilians in the city can be saved, but the surrounding people are likely to suffer from the scourge of the rebels, and it is not so easy to completely exterminate the rebels who scattered and fled.

But if the Eight Bull Crossbow is not used, then Yin Ziqi will still command the army to continue to attack the city, and every day of persistence, Suiyang City will cost hundreds of lives, and they may also die in the chaos when the victory is coming, this choice makes all the generals silent.

"The last general will listen to Lord Zhongcheng." Li You took a deep breath and took the lead in answering, counting the days, I'm afraid the messenger would have found Zhang Hao a long time ago, right? Maybe the reinforcements are already arriving in Suiyang, so let's accompany the soldiers and civilians in Suiyang for a few more days.

"The rebels have besieged the city for several months, and the soldiers and civilians of Suiyang have suffered countless casualties, if they are allowed to escape, Xu will not be reconciled." Xu Yuan also smiled and stood on Li You's side.

"Haha, Lei hasn't killed enough, it's good to kill the thief for a few more days, but Lord Zhongcheng, if reinforcements come, you must let Lei go out of the city to fight!" Lei Wanchun also pretended to be hearty and echoed.

"Since the last general entered Suiyang City, I never thought that I could get out alive, and now that I have held on for so long, the last general has already earned it, so how can I hold on for a few more days?" Yao Yu and Jia Ben spoke up at the same time, fighting side by side for months, making them convinced of every decision made by Zhang Xun, and now even if his decision might cost him his life, they have no regrets at all.

"Zhang Moudai, the people of the nearby states and counties have thanked you." Zhang Xun couldn't cry at the moment, he shook Li You and the others, "You have followed Zhang for many days, Zhang has not let you live a good life, killed the enemy before the armies, ate and slept behind the armies, and now with such a sharp weapon, you still do not pity your own lives, and are willing to fight to the death with Zhang, this kind of kindness Zhang remembers in his heart." ”

"Why does Lord Zhongcheng need to be like this?" The generals hurriedly helped Zhang Xun up, "After getting along for a long time, doesn't Lord Zhongcheng know what kind of characters we are?" If we are greedy for life and afraid of death, why should we follow the adults into this Suiyang City? ”

"Haha, it's Zhang who is presumptuous." Zhang Xun stiffly smiled a little, "After the reinforcements of Lord Zhongshu arrive and the thief army is annihilated, Zhang will definitely pour wine to make amends to you, and we will not get drunk." ”

"Don't get drunk!" The generals responded in unison, and the generous and tragic laughter soared into the sky, and the pride that erupted from their chests dispelled the haze that shrouded Suiyang City, and the morale of the whole army was boosted.

Zhang Xun swept the faces of the surrounding generals and soldiers according to this, I don't know how many loyal and brave soldiers will be left when the reinforcements arrive and break the rebels?

Carefully put the Eight Ox Crossbow in a safe place, Zhang Xun and the soldiers climbed to the head of Suiyang City again, and the bitter battle of the new day was about to begin.

Li You bent his bow and shot an arrow to kill a rebel archer who was aiming the bow and arrow in his hand at the city, and the corner of his eye swept over Yin Ziqi's position, at such a close distance, if several eight-bull crossbows worked together, he would definitely die or live, but unfortunately it was up to you to restrain the rebels at the moment, so let you live for two more days, right?

If it weren't for the people in Suiyang City who fought desperately to kill the enemy and roll down the city wall with the rebels, maybe Suiyang City was broken by the rebels today, but even at the most critical moment, Zhang Xun still endured and did not let people move out of the Eight Bull Crossbow.

"One more day," murmured to themselves as almost all the soldiers collapsed on the walls of the city as the enemy retreated.

And Zhang Xunqiang supported himself on the city wall, looking at the direction of Chang'an from a distance, when will Zhang Congzhou's reinforcements arrive? Zhang Mou put the lives of the entire Suiyang army and civilians on the gambling table, don't let me down.

Yin Ziqi, who was outside the city, took a deep look at Suiyang City, he already knew at this moment that Suiyang City did not have much strength left, and it would be a few days before he broke through this city that had blocked them for several months. After the city is broken, I have to cut Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan, Nan Jiyun and others with thousands of knives to solve the hatred in my heart. Yin Ziqi gently stroked the blindfolded white cloth, and the wound that was shot by Li You seemed to be aching again.

And further west, the reinforcements commanded by Zhang Hao were rushing towards Suiyang City at the fastest speed, he looked at the direction of Suiyang City from afar, and kept shouting in his heart, Zhang Xun, Xu Lingwei, you have to hold on, a certain family is about to arrive. With a thought in his heart, he turned around sharply and shouted to the rear, "Faster, faster!" ”

It was another sunset, and the rebels once again left countless corpses and retreated unwillingly; Yin Ziqi held the green tendons on the back of the horsewhip, three days, I thought that Suiyang City would be taken by him immediately, who knew that Zhang Xun insisted on holding on with the defenders for another three days, and thousands of soldiers under his command lost their lives in these three days.

Can't you break through this small city after all? Yin Ziqi suddenly came up with such an idea, but he put these aside later, today they have broken the West Gate, if it weren't for Zhang Xun setting a fire in the city gate to stop them, Suiyang City would have been broken long ago.

"Kill the cattle and buy wine tonight to reward the three armies, and tomorrow take Suiyang City in one fell swoop." Yin Ziqi commanded loudly, and he regarded tomorrow as the moment of the final battle.

Will you be able to hold it tomorrow? In the middle of the moon, Zhang Xun was still sitting on the city wall, looking at the chaotic camp of the rebels, now is a good time to raid, but unfortunately he really has no troops.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he swept across the night sky in the west, and a Kong Ming lantern appeared on the top of a small hill. (To be continued.) )
