Chapter 204: The War (10)

"I thought King Yan was a smart man... I really didn't expect to be so stupid, let the good General Geng not fight, and come to fight really surely? ”

At the north gate of Zhending City, the guard general Mao Xian was smiling and talking about something to the soldiers under his hands, and his words were full of ridicule and ridicule of Zhu Di who was attacking the southern city.

And no wonder he's like this... After the news that King Yan led his troops to attack Zhending came out, the garrison and people in the city were very flustered for a while, and the example of Xiongxian County was placed in front, plus the rumors of the people about King Yan were getting more and more outrageous these days, and they were really worried that King Yan beckoned the city wall to fall... But it wasn't until the prefect of Zhending and the generals in the city mobilized the defenders of several other gates, and all of them pressed to the south gate, that they found that Zhu Di's army could not advance at all, and could only be overwhelmed by the rain of arrows on the city wall from a long distance.

This look is too embarrassing, so embarrassed that the Zhending prefect, who hastily commanded a battle, is now full of one thought--how kind of waste are those generals who were defeated by King Yan? It's really sure that the current defenders are only 20,000, and this has not been captured by King Yan, doesn't it mean that such a civil official as himself will fight more fiercely than those generals?

Good guy, he studied and entered the prefect's office, and stopped King Yan in the battle of defending the city, he can be called a Confucian general!

So the prefect of Zhending inevitably swelled, and even had the idea of leading troops out of the city to fight hard with King Yan, if it weren't for some sane generals who desperately stopped them, now Zhending City is estimated to have started fighting.

But this mood soon spread throughout the city, and even the north gate that couldn't be hit by eight poles was heard, because the battle was not fierce at all, and the soldiers guarding the north gate who didn't even need to be defended naturally regarded teasing King Yan as the biggest entertainment today.

This one said that King Yan was nothing more than that, and that said that King Yan was whimsical, and then teased General Geng Da, who had been a turtle with a shrunken head under Zhending City for more than half a month, the city gate tower was full of happy air, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the smoke and dust of the march in the distance, this cheerfulness might last longer.

"What the fuck is that? Yan Wang still has reinforcements? ”

Mao Xian, who was taken aback, hurriedly let people blow the horn, and sent someone to the city to inform the adults, squinting his eyes and waiting for the distance where the arrows could be released, but when the army got closer... It's actually fucking the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.

The leader of the cavalry was Pan Zhong, who led the troops back to help, crossed the pontoon bridge from the north bank of the Hutuo River against the surging river, and marched all the way to the foot of Zhending City, so anxious that his mouth was about to blister, but when he saw that Zhending City had not been broken and the banner on the city wall had not been replaced, Pan Zhong felt that it was all worth it.

Such an army of thousands of people arrived under the city wall, it was definitely impossible to enter the city directly, Pan Zhong sent people to sit on the hanging basket, and watched the defenders on the city wall pull people up little by little, only to breathe a sigh of relief, and the two wings suddenly sounded the earth-shattering shouts of killing.

It's all too familiar... It was so familiar that Pan Zhong almost jumped off his horse, and if it wasn't daytime, he even suspected that he was dreaming again—it was all too similar to that night.

And when he saw those soldiers attacking from both wings, he almost rolled his eyes and fainted, because these soldiers were all Yan soldiers! And it's the cavalry of the Yan Army on horseback!

Didn't you say that his damn King Yan brought foot soldiers to attack the city? So where did these cavalry come from?

But fortunately, he also brought cavalry, but unfortunately he had completely lost the courage to fight against the Yan army, and when he realized that Zhu Di's intention might not be to really set the city but to send reinforcements from General Geng, Pan Zhong subconsciously sent a military order to shrink the formation and enter the city!

Don't fucking fight, it's important to get into the city!

So everyone's eyes fell on Mao Xian, as the guard of the North City Gate, he had the final say whether the gate could be opened or not, after all, the person sent to report the news had not returned yet.

Mao Xian was in a dilemma for a while.

How so? What if it is opened, and the Yan army takes the opportunity to enter the city? But if it is not opened, the city is really a reinforcement, wouldn't it be to watch them fight against the city?

At the last moment, those laughter just now appeared in my mind.

Oh, yes... King Yan is a waste!

Mao Xian made a decision, and personally went up to the city tower and shouted a long paragraph, which probably means that the general under the city I know that you are very hard, there are many enemies, and you want to enter the city, I can also understand, but because there is no order from above, I can't disobey the order to let you in, in fact, as long as you beat these Yan troops back, you can enter the city, so I hope you work hard, I will cheer for you in the city.

Pan Zhong almost vomited blood when he said this, if he can win, why is Lao Tzu looking for you? If you don't let in, you won't let in, what are you doing with so much fucking nonsense?

This intense comedic effect didn't last long, as the charging cavalry got closer and closer, and as the distance closed, many black unidentified objects appeared on their hands.

Seeing this situation, Pan Zhong was about to go crazy, and he shouted towards the city tower with his last hope, hoping to enter the city, but Mao Xian ruthlessly rejected him.

King Yan can't beat the south gate, the prefect wants to go out and fight with King Yan, aren't you even as good as the prefect, you can't even beat the waste like King Yan?

Pan Zhong was dumbfounded.

……

Ma Sanbao, who led the charge, suppressed his violently beating heart, and the young boy more than ten years ago seemed to have returned to this body at this moment.

Charging into battle is a man's romance... After being a eunuch for so many years, I almost forgot the feeling of licking blood from the knife edge.

Yes, there is never a real attack... What the prince wants is for Geng Bingwen, who is cautious by nature, to send a support army, and then eat this support army!

Heavy rain fell from the sky, and the water level of the Hutuo River skyrocketed, breaking down many pontoon bridges, and the number of support troops must not be too much, because Geng Bingwen's mind must be on the 40,000 soldiers in Wuji City, and it is impossible to let tens of thousands of troops cross the river slowly and then surround the Yan army under Zhending City.

If you calculate that, a lot of things become easier... The defenders on the city wall let them shoot if they wanted to, and the cavalry all dismounted and pretended to be foot soldiers, leaving some lives in the siege, so that the people in Zhending City felt that they were terrible, and then quietly waited for the reinforcements to come to Zhending City.

Of course, there are many follow-up things, such as what to do next after eating this support army, such as how many grenades should be saved to increase the intensity of stabbing Geng Bingwen's eyes.

But there is a premise for all this, that is, the casualties of this cavalry army cannot be too large, and the officers and soldiers of the court on the opposite side cannot escape too much, if they enter the city, it is very likely that they will stick behind the Yan army in the future and become a foreshadowing of victory or defeat.

In order to attract the city defense, Zhu Di can't move, and even the handsome flag has to be placed at the south gate to attract attention, and Zhang Yu, Zhang Xin, Zhu Neng, Tan Yuan, and Gu Cheng also have to command the army of Wuji City, so who is left to charge with this cavalry? Only Ma Sanbao, who changed from a soldier to a eunuch and got a promise from Zhu Di, remained.

Oh, yes... It's been many years, and all the battles in Tiannan and Haibei have been fought, from the dense forest plain to the yellow sand desert, Ma Sanbao can't remember how many times he charged, but none of them were as refreshing as now, so exciting!

The cavalry on the opposite side shrinks in formation? Doesn't matter! As long as the gates are not opened, as long as they do not run, I will chisel them through fiercely!

And those pontoon bridges on the Hutuo River will also be cut off after the Yan army marches, and Geng Bingwen's last retreat will be cut off in his own hands!

Ma Sanbao gently raised the knife in his hand, and the breath in his mouth seemed to turn into substantial smoke, circling around his face.

The war horse under him neighed at the right time, which made Ma Sanbao's slightly sharp voice full of iron and blood at this moment:

"Kill!"
