Li Jiguang, the deputy general of Li, had already gone up to the city wall with the military advisor Hu Feng and looked into the distance.

Hu Feng said: "It seems that there is going to be a tough battle today. ”

There were rumors in the army, he guessed that this was Chongnan's trick, and wanted to take advantage of the Huangsha Pass army's heart to sneak attack and seize the city, and sure enough, this speculation was confirmed in the mouths of the two Mu generals. But the Chongnan army came so quickly, which was still beyond Hu Feng's expectations.

Deputy General Li Jiguang listened to Hu Feng's words and did not make a sound, he stared closely at the fire below.

The light of the fire soon reached the city, and the general who led the other side took a torch from the cavalry, illuminating the beard on his face, and he was a very rough man.

General Chongnan raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Huangkou Xiaoer, if you don't open the city gate and let grandpa in, grandpa will catch your general for wine tonight!" ”

The soldiers behind him laughed when they heard this, and their arrogance was very arrogant.

Hu Feng, who was standing on the city wall, trembled his eyebrows, and turned his head to look at the "yellow-mouthed child" in the other party's mouth.

Li Jiguang was staring at the people behind the other party, as if he was estimating the number of people, and he didn't listen to General Chongnan's scolding at all.

After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "The sky is too dark, but the number of soldiers and horses is at least twice that of our soldiers defending the city. ”

When Hu Feng heard this, his heart sank, is there a chance of victory against the 100,000 "Mu family army" in Huangsha Pass, against the 200,000 army of the enemy Chongnan?

The bearded man under the city saw that he had scolded for so long, and there was no reaction from above, so he couldn't help but raise his torch and said angrily: "Brothers, take the city with me!" ”

"Kill!"

The continuous shouts of tens of thousands of people were not ordinarily terrifying.

The Chongnan people have always liked to attack at night.

For one, the dark night not only made the defenders feel fear and pressure, but also concealed the movement and number of troops.

Second, the low visibility at night greatly weakened the defenders' archery accuracy.

Hu Feng watched them carry the log and hit the city gate directly, there was a loud bang, and his throat rose to his throat, "I always feel that Chongnan's attack this time is different from the past!" It's weird! ”

As he spoke, the ladder that had been hidden in the darkness by the other party had been erected and placed on the city wall.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Li Jiguang did not hesitate, and with an order, the archer shot the arrow with the rope on his tail to the cloud ladder.

The ropes were soaked in oil, and as soon as the arrows went down on one side, someone immediately lit the ropes on the other side. The Chongnan soldiers who had climbed the ladder fell down from the ladder with a frightened cry, and several of the ladders were burned down because of the good position of the arrows.

General Chongnan looked at the raging flames burning on the ladder below, and sneered: "Huangkou Xiaoer, where did you learn the new trick?" Hmph, the first few waves of arrow rain have passed, and there will be a gap in the upper attack to take advantage of, and when the time comes, our people will go up again, as long as someone enters the city, it will be easy to break the city. ”

Hu Feng looked down at the city wall and said, "The bearded man below is not panicked at all. ”

Li Jiguang looked at the situation below and said, "They couldn't climb the city wall for a while, but there were many more people than us after all. The other side is consuming our ......"

While the two were talking, Mu Qing and Mu Rencheng and his son climbed the city wall.

Li Jiguang restrained his expression and saluted: "General." ”

Mu Rencheng nodded and glanced at the soldiers on the side of the city wall, "You actually used an oil rope?" ”

Hu Feng said: "This Chongnan's attack is different from the past, as soon as it comes up, it is a strong attack, and I don't know what the idea is." ”

Mu Rencheng thought that this time was the same as before, but it was just for show, so he smiled indifferently, "Some carving insect skills......

However, before he could finish speaking, the archers below lit the arrows, and one by one they shot away from the bowstring, and the burning arrows flew into the high wall, instantly knocking down the defenders in the city, and Mu Rencheng couldn't dodge and was set on fire.

"General!"

The surroundings fell into chaos for a while, Mu Rencheng hurriedly lay down on the ground and rolled to extinguish the sparks on his body, and then got up and shouted, "What's the matter!" ”

"General, another enemy army is coming up the ladder!"

Mu Rencheng looked back at his father, Mu Qing was also shocked, feeling that the situation was different, the father and son glanced at each other, Mu Qing immediately ordered, "Bring the oil here!" ”

The enemy troops climbing the ladder below took advantage of this opportunity to become more and more dense, and some people were already approaching the city wall!

Li Jiguang squinted at Mu Qing's father and son, and dragged Hu Feng to the back.

The defenders smashed two canisters of fire oil into the place where the ladder stood!

The torches thrown down from the city wall immediately ignited most of the ladders, and a long line of enemy soldiers turned into burning men and fell from the ladders.

Seeing this, the enemy soldiers retreated one after another, and the bearded general shouted angrily: "Archers continue to release arrows for me!" Shoot the arrows! ”

Mu Rencheng has been cheating for many years, and he has long been dumbfounded in the face of such a situation, and he doesn't understand how Chongnan can suddenly attack.

Mu Qing has many years of experience in fighting the enemy, but unfortunately he has not used it for more than ten years, and he has long been unfamiliar.

Father and son hurriedly commanded the soldiers against the enemy.

Li Jiguang watched coldly from the side, calculating in his heart that sooner or later, when his bow and arrows were exhausted, the fire oil was not a long-term solution, and the fire oil sprinkled on the city wall would soon be burned out. And the other party's rockets swished and flew in, and the ladder was erected again, and so on two or three times, it could not hinder the other party.

When General Chongnan below saw that they were no longer smashing the canisters, he laughed: "There is a saying, what is it called, what is the skill of the donkey!" Hmph, now General Ben will let you donkeys know that you know how powerful! ”

In addition to the ladders constantly climbing up, the people below are also constantly storming the city gates, and the "boom boom" shook the world. Some of the soldiers were blocked in front of them, and their arms were shattered.

The rocket clusters here are also shooting like rain, as if they don't need money!

Li Jiguang squinted and looked in the direction of the enemy army, the bearded man sat in front of the army, commanding the soldiers to attack the city, and the surrounding guards protected him.

He said to Mu Rencheng: "General, there is something wrong with the situation of the other party, such a steady stream of attacks, it seems that there is another plan, and his subordinates will take people to take a look around." ”

Mu Rencheng pondered for a moment and nodded.

The banner was blowing, the long wind was hovering over the battlefield with a bloody breath, and several figures suddenly appeared outside the city to cover their bodies along the uneven terrain and sneak down to the city. Looking at the vigor of the hands, they knew that they were all masters, and they quietly touched the root of the city wall in the distance, and the flying claws were thrown and dragged, and several ups and downs had already climbed the city wall.

The group landed lightly like cats, flipped in their hands, and a bright dagger appeared in their hands.

The leader waved his hand slightly, and the black-clothed people scattered, quietly touching the guards everywhere.

Just when they were about to succeed, they were grabbed by the neck from behind, and with a slight wave, the throat was cut like tofu and fell to the ground without life.

"They really have other plans."
