Chapter 405: One Glory, One Loss

At the same time, Han Xuan, the regular army of Youguo in the distance, or the commander of the Youguo army, also glanced up at the sky.

So far, Han Xuan has been standing still, while sitting and watching the attack of the Youjun slaves on Zhuolu County, while seizing the time to let the soldiers under his command rest and recover their strength, but seeing that the Youjun slaves are not attacking the city, and the sky is getting closer and closer to dusk, Han Xuan finally couldn't hold it back.

Because as Meng Song said, Han Xuan hopes to attack Zhuolu before dusk, otherwise the 400,000 soldiers of the Youjun under his command will have to sleep in the suburbs tonight.

Han Xuan called out in a deep voice, "Zhang Lang, Jin Chong!"

Hearing the call, not far from Han Xuan, two generals in their thirties rode out of the ranks, drove their horses to Han Xuan's side, and saluted with their fists with serious faces: "The last general!"

I saw Han Xuan raise his hand and point at Zhuolu in the distance, and ordered in a deep voice: "Zhang Lang, you lead 100,000 people to immediately launch an offensive against Zhuolu and take the city before sunset!"

The general, named Zhang Lang, had a more serious countenance, bowed and saluted, "Obey!"

Han Xuan pointed to the other person and said, "Jin Chong, you bring 20,000 crossbowmen to assist Zhang Lang!"

The general named Jin Chong also bowed and saluted: "Obey!"

A moment later, Zhang Lang drove his horse to the army to which he belonged, raised his arms and shouted, "All the soldiers obey the order! The captain has an order! Order us to attack Zhuolu and take the city before sunset!"

"Oh! Oh!"

100,000 regular soldiers of the Youjun Army raised their weapons in their hands and shouted in unison.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Lang nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand to Zhuolu County in the distance, and shouted, "Forward!"

With an order, 100,000 regular soldiers of Youguo broke away from their own formation, walked with relatively neat steps, and slowly advanced in the direction of Zhuolu City.

At the same time, Jin Chong, another general under Han Qi's command, also led 20,000 crossbowmen from the rear to make a roundabout battle, preparing to assist Zhang Lang in attacking Zhuolu.

As soon as the 120,000 regular army of Youguo made a move, they were watched by Meng Song, who was always watching them from the gate tower of Zhuolu East City.

Immediately, Meng Song's mouth let out a laugh of unknown meaning: "Huh! Nearly half of the troops were dispatched at once, and they really look up to us."

At this time, Zhuolu County Commander Liang Du and County Cheng Puhong also noticed the actions of the Youjun, and seeing that the other party dispatched nearly half of the troops in one breath, the faces of these two turned pale again, and their eyes showed horror.

Even, Liang Du, the commander of Zhuolu County, stammered to Meng Song, "General Meng, this ......"

"Don't panic, I expected it."

Meng Song opened his mouth to comfort Liang Du and Pu Hong, the commander of Zhuolu County, and immediately turned his head to Li Xian and said, "Jun Sima, send me Tang Army Warriors!"

Send me the officers of the Tang Army now? It's a tough battle......

A trace of hesitation flashed in Li Xian's eyes, obviously he also had selfish intentions, between the Tang Army and the Zhuolu County Army, of course he was more inclined to the former.

But he didn't raise any objections, because he knew that Meng Song must have his own considerations.

"Okay."

He immediately nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Meng Song instructed again: "Different from the servants of the Youjun Army, these people are the regular army of the Youguo, and there must be crossbowmen in the army. All the swords and shields of the generals are sent!"

"Whoa!"

Li Xian nodded, turned around and walked quickly to the stone steps of the city wall not far away, and Han Yan followed.

At this time, Meng Song summoned Duan Yu, the county lieutenant of Zhuolu, and ordered: "Duan County Captain, order everyone on the city wall, the Youjun army has sent a regular army to attack Zhuolu, and order the Tang army to hold the city wall, and all the rest of the county army will retreat to the city, and its vacancy will be filled by the Tang army in the city!" Go quickly!"

"Yes!"

Duan Yu clasped his fists and saluted, leading people to run along the city wall, conveying Meng Song's military orders as he ran.

"The commander of the Meng army has an order! The regular army of Youguo is about to attack the city, and the Tang army will hold on to the spot! The rest of the county soldiers immediately retreated to the city and were replaced by the Tang army in the city! …… Repeat, the Tang army held on to the spot, and the county guards immediately retreated to the city! ……」

"The commander of the Meng army has an order! The regular army of Youguo is about to attack the city, and the Tang army is firmly in place

Guard! The rest of the county soldiers immediately retreated to the city and were replaced by the Tang army in the city! …… Repeat, the Tang army held on to the spot, and the county guards immediately retreated to the city! ……」

Hearing this order, there was some commotion on the city walls.

"What?!"

"The regular army of the Hidden Kingdom is about to attack the city?!"

The county soldiers who were still resisting the attack of the Youjun slaves subconsciously looked into the distance outside the city, and sure enough, they saw as many as 100,000 regular soldiers of the Youguo Kingdom rushing towards this side.

Don't look at the confidence gained by these new soldiers of the county army in the soldiers of the Youjun army who are besieging the city, but when they see the hundreds of thousands of regular troops of the Youguo country marching neatly, they will inevitably show horror.

After all, no matter how stupid a person is, he understands that those regular soldiers of Youguo who are fully armored are definitely worlds different from the group of Youguo slaves who don't even have armor outside the city at this moment. new

Thinking of this, they were glad that they had been rotated and did not have to face that terrible enemy.

However, the discerning people among these county soldiers had a different opinion, and when they saw that their companions showed a look of joy and rushed to remove the city wall, some people immediately scolded them angrily: "You fools, now the city is both prosperous and lost, if the army breaks through the city wall, do you think you will be able to live?"

This shouting and scolding woke up the county guards who were trying to remove the city wall as soon as possible.

These people thought about it carefully: yes, if the Youjun army broke through the city wall and attacked the city in a big way, who would be spared?

One of the county officials said in a daze, "Okay...... But...... The order told us to get down......

Hearing this, the county guard who had just scolded everyone flashed a complicated look on his face, and he stopped talking.

Of course, he understood that the reason why the Tang Army commander replaced them was obviously because he felt that they were not enough to block the attack of the Youjun Army......

While killing the enemy, the Tang Army soldiers reminded and urged, "Hurry up!"

Hearing this, not to mention the red faces of the new soldiers of the county army, even the headhunters of Duan Yu and Zhuolu County Ya also felt that their faces were gloomy.

At the moment of the great enemy, the county army has been replaced with the Tang army, what does this mean?

But after hesitating for a moment, Duan Yu and the others still decided to obey the order, although they felt that Meng Song, the commander of the Tang Army, underestimated the county army.

With a little hesitation, Duan Yu gave an order to the nearby county magistrate, "Go down......

Different from Fang Cai's happiness and joy, the county guards lowered their heads and silently walked to the stone steps on the inner side of the city wall, and at the same time, they looked at a Tang army with a shield with a complicated expression, quickly passing past them to make up for the vacancy after their withdrawal.

Zhang Teng glanced at Duan Yu, the county lieutenant of Zhuolu County, who was still on the city wall, with a bit of ridicule on his face, and said, "Won't you go down to rest?"

However, Duan Yu was in no mood to joke with Zhang Teng at this moment, and said with a calm face, "I'm still full of energy! Tang Jun can guard the side of the county army, and I can also guard the side of Tang Jun."

Zhang Teng chuckled and shook his head, and said, "Death is a shame."

Zhang Teng is very familiar with Duan Yu's temperament, that is the backbone of a soldier, he knows very well that since the other party said that he can't get off the city wall, even if he finds a few people to put him down, he will still climb up.
