Defending the city, relying on the city walls, has a great advantage.

The walls of Xizhou were built tall, thick, and strong, and even if the siege equipment bombarded indiscriminately, it could not easily knock on the city gate.

What's more, there is terrain outside the city of Xizhou, which makes it more difficult for the enemy to get close.

Just guarding, Yu Bai has a lot of confidence.

However, a city is a city, and it can't run, and it can't even move a point.

When Yushakou was defeated before, and Da Liang had to strictly guard against Mingsha Pass, the city sent a lot of troops to reinforcements.

Now it seems that there is no return.

In the end, Yu Bai didn't understand why Su Zhi was defeated so suddenly.

The front defense was lost, and their Xizhou became a temple that could not run, waiting to be surrounded.

Of course, in the face of the siege, it is not without a way to solve it.

First, the imperial court reinforced a large number of people, and because of the internal and external peace, the enemy was surrounded in the middle.

The second is to cut off the supply of the Zhou people, and the Zhou people can't supply grain and grass, so they retreat on their own, and the crisis in Xizhou City is lifted.

The city was held like this.

But either way, someone needs to do it.

Yu Bai urged and urged, and the imperial court neither said that it would make people rescue, nor did it say that it would send troops to detour and interject supply routes.

Is this waiting for the Zhou people to make a mess themselves?

The Zhou people have waited for more than ten years, and for the first time, they can be next to Xizhou City, and they will definitely not retreat easily.

If he is a general of the Zhou people, he can write three letters a day when he goes to Beijing to urge grain!

And the court of the Zhou people, who has been diligent in internal affairs for so many years, will they not be able to send food and salary?

Although the road is far away, it is all your own land, and you don't have to worry about being robbed.

Wait for the grain and grass to be hoarded to Feimen Pass, and then send it to the west step by step, with a veteran like Qin Yin in charge, it is very stable.

As long as this supply continues, the Zhou people can besiege their Xizhou City just by besieging them.

Time is never fair.

The Zhou people could besiege them for a month or two, but they couldn't hold out for so long in Xizhou City.

The food storage in the city is limited, and once hungry, are the soldiers and ordinary people still willing to defend the city?

I can't open the gates of the city right away!

After all, in their opinion, this city was abandoned by the Great Liang Imperial Court.

Otherwise, there will be no hope for rescue for a long time?

It was Yu Bai himself, thinking of the possible situation, and his mood was very heavy.

Hurry up and get the news......

He prayed silently.

Any news is fine, so that he can tell his soldiers that the imperial court is working hard to transfer troops to save Xizhou.

Wait until the sun sets in the west.

What appeared outside the city of Xizhou was not the heralds of the Daliang Imperial Court, but the troops of the Zhou people.

Three miles from the city gate, the formation was set out, with the men with shields in front, the archers behind, and the cavalry behind.

Yu Bai has been on the battlefield for a long time, and when he saw this layout, he couldn't help frowning.

This is clearly not a charge-and-attack posture.

The cavalry was blocked by their own side and could not rush at all.

What do Zhou people want to do?

The distance is not close, not far away, and it is quite difficult to see the appearance of the enemy general.

Yu Bai could only distinguish the generals of the Zhou people from the fluttering flags.

Under the sunset, in the Fengzi banner bureau, there is the word Lin on the side.

Nothing else.

Yu Bai inquired, and there were several Zhou generals who were preparing to attack Xizhou this time.

Are they now in the garrison, or are they lying in ambush on the sidelines, eyeing the enemy?

Three miles away, Feng Zhong sat on horseback and nodded to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan clamped the horse's belly, left his own army alone, and took more than 100 steps in the direction of Xizhou City.

Yu Bai looked at him intently.

The man who rode out on his own was very young, dressed in silver armor and armed with a spear.

At such an age, with such bearing and courage, there is no doubt that this person is Lin Xuan's son Lin Fan.

What does he want to do?

Yu Bai clenched his fists.

Calling for a battle?

No matter how provocative he is in this future life, Yu Bai is ready to enter in the left ear and out the right ear.

It's stupid to be so angry that you can't rush out and fight each other.

He Yu Bai is not a hairy boy who has just appeared on the battlefield.

Guards, guards, and generals, unlike generals who are good at attacking, only aim to defend.

To put it mildly, it's a comparison of who is the real king!

Shrinking in the shell, resolutely not rising, and being as steady as Mount Tai, is a good defender.

Lin Fan held the horse step down.

This distance is just outside the range of the crossbow arrows on the city walls.

"General Yu," Lin Fan said in a loud voice, "Don't be so nervous, set up a formation today, not for attacking, and don't want to besiege the city, just because there is a letter to be handed over to the general." ”

Yu Bai snorted.

It's still better than the kind of shouting that scolds the street rudely.

After all, anyone will scold if they speak foul language.

I scolded a lot and listened to a lot, but I generally couldn't arouse my anger.

On the contrary, it is a yin and yang weirdness without a dirty word, and the words drill into the heart, liver and lungs, which is annoyingly tight.

Yu Bai was calm, but the soldiers on the side were not steady.

Seeing Lin Fan standing in front, he raised his bow and shot.

Yu Bai glanced at it and didn't stop it.

At this distance, it looks like there is a chance, but in fact, it can't be shot at all.

The long arrow broke through the air, and there was a thud.

Lin Fan can see clearly, he does not dodge, he does not dodge, and his face does not change.

Sure enough, the long arrow gradually lost its strength and landed a few steps away.

On the contrary, it was Feng Zhong in the military formation behind him, because he was far away and could not estimate the strength and distance of the bow and arrow, so he was taken aback.

Even with it, the soldiers next to Feng Zhong all gasped.

Good boys.

Dingguo Gongte was bold.

On the city wall, the archers saw that one arrow had missed, and they wanted to send another arrow.

This time, Yu Bai reached out to stop him and shook his head with him.

The archers withdrew in anger.

Yu Bai's gaze fell on Lin Fan again.

He could see very clearly that when the arrow landed, Lin Fan's figure was very relaxed, and he even suspected that at that moment, Lin Fan was laughing.

It's not that he didn't react, it's not that he can't dodge, but Lin Fan is very sure that he doesn't need to hide at all.

With this calmness, confidence and courage, Yu Bai's mood is very complicated.

The Zhou people are not without successors.

The young Lin Fan is a rising star.

On the contrary, they are very cool, and there are no dazzling characters among the younger generation.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Bai asked loudly, "I don't know who wrote the letter?" ”

Lin Fan replied: "It is General Yu's close friend, General Li Jiaoli, who was captured in the Battle of Yushakou, and wrote a letter to the general. ”

At the mention of Li Jiao's name, Yu Bai's breathing tightened.

Yushakou was defeated too badly.

Shi Wei and others were killed in battle, and Li Jiao and they were captured.

When the news came back, Yu Bai was in a hurry and asked people to go to Beijing to inquire about the court's countermeasures.

When the two armies fought, not to mention the prisoners were exchanged, the generals who died in the battle always had to give an explanation.

As a result, there was a quarrel between the DPRK and China.

To change, not to change, all kinds of opinions.

In the end, there was no result in the quarrel, and the matter was put on hold.

If you ask again, you are waiting for Zhou Ren to talk about the conditions.

Yu Bai's head hurt.

The Zhou people have the upper hand and continue to attack aggressively, what conditions can they take the initiative to negotiate?

But he is a city guard, and he really can't say anything in Beijing, so he can only give up.

Seeing that Yu Bai didn't reply, Lin Fan took out the letter, held it high, and waved it: "General Yu won't dare to take it, right?" ”
