Wang Hanting and the others couldn't get the news when they were leading the troops outside, so they could only rely on the scouts to check with binoculars in front of them.

After seeing Liu Jianxing retreat with a large number of men and horses, they went into battle lightly and made a detour from Xuzhou to the north.

Huaixi Mansion City.

"Hold on, everybody! The news of the rescue has been sent back, and it won't be long before reinforcements arrive! Let's hold on for a while! Chang Wencheng's eyes were red, and he said in a tearing voice.

"Kill!"

The stone strips of the city wall have been stained brown with blood, and the armor on Chang Wencheng's body has also been stained red with blood, and some flesh and blood can be faintly seen sticking to it.

He looked tired, but his eyes were bright and full of determination.

Hongyuan City sent people to attack Huaixi Mansion, and Chang Wencheng shot the other party's leader in the camp with a bed crossbow, and bought them five days, and the other party quickly changed the commander and sent another person to continue to lead the troops to attack the city.

The bed crossbow has been known to the other party, and they retreat out of the shooting range of the bed crossbow, and it is difficult to sneak attack.

Even with the help of the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Arrows, there will always be a time when the arrows run out.

"General Shao, their arrows should have run out, these days they have waited for us to get fifty steps closer to the city wall before starting to attack, it seems that they want to save some use, as long as we insist on persevering, we can knock down Huaixi Mansion City in half a month."

At the rear of the military formation, Shao Tiancheng, who was replaced, listened to the report of his subordinates, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

"If Chang Yuan personally guards the city gate, General Ben may still be afraid, but he is just an ignorant child, half a month can be regarded as promoting him, ten days," he put away his smile and looked at his own soldiers fighting in front of him with a resolute face, "General Ben can take Huaixi Mansion City in ten days." ”

The subordinates next to him complimented, "Yes, General Shao will definitely be captured!" Luo Xueguang has been injured and unconscious, Chang Wencheng is a milky child, relying on him to defend the city alone, he must not be General Shao's opponent. ”

"When I take Huaixi Mansion City, General Chang Wencheng wants to live, I want to see if this Chang Wencheng can be exchanged for palm thunder."

"Pass my order, Mingjin collects the troops, let the people under his command have a good meal, and from the beginning of the hour, we will be tired day and night!"

"Yes!"

on the city walls.

Watching the enemy gradually retreat, Chang Wencheng supported his body with a knife, hiding a faintly trembling right foot.

"The enemy army has withdrawn temporarily, everyone hurry up to bury the pot and make food, I don't know when they will kill him, we must be vigilant, the people in the city are our wives and children, we must be very careful."

The soldiers came over and persuaded: "Little general, you should also go down and rest, you haven't closed your eyes for three days." ”

Chang Wencheng supported himself with a knife and shook his head, "There are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with, General Luo is still seriously injured and unconscious, I can't rest." ”

The soldier sighed, "But if you continue to stay up like this, what can you do if you fall by yourself?" It's good for you to rest for an hour or two, you are busy guarding the city during the day, and you have to deal with things everywhere at night, and you have to take time to see General Luo, and you have to patrol and inspect everywhere, this person is not iron-beaten, if you go on like this, how can I explain to the general. ”

Chang Wencheng barely held up a smile, "If I lose Huaixi Mansion City, I won't be able to explain to the general, now that General Luo is seriously injured, and the other old generals are also killed, except for me, no one can gather everyone." ”

The soldiers didn't say anything after sighing, what Chang Wencheng said was indeed the truth, this battle to defend the city was very difficult, although they had sufficient preparations, but the enemy was not afraid of death, no, it should be said that many displaced people were driven forward to attack the city.

They couldn't bear it anymore and could only do it, the number of people was very large, and they lost a lot of arrows and weapons to defend the city, but the other side actually did not suffer much loss, because most of the people who came to attack the city were unarmed people.

After the bed crossbow shooting, Shao Tiancheng was very vigilant, and the camp tent was set up outside the scope of the bed crossbow, and even the leader of the command hid far away, trying to avoid their bed crossbow attacks, and never easily stepped on the front end,

Although the bed crossbow has a strong shooting range and penetration, it only kills a dozen soldiers on the battlefield alone, and it cannot stop the footsteps of other soldiers.

They rushed forward desperately as if they were not dying, the people in front fell, and the people behind directly stepped on the corpses in front of them and climbed onto the city wall.

And every time the battle to defend the city, Chang Wencheng took the lead, he has been in this place for two or three years, and has already won the respect of the soldiers below, at this time, he is the first soldier, standing on the front line, and the bottom soldiers to defend the city together, after several generals have fallen, everyone's backbone is him.

Most of the city's affairs depended on him, and they had to face not only the enemy's attack, but also the people in the city.

Chang Wencheng checked around, took the paste handed over by his own soldiers, glanced at it and asked, "Does everyone eat the same?" ”

The soldier nodded, "According to your orders, the wounded soldier ate a little meat, and everyone else ate the same, just a little oily." ”

Chang Wencheng took a sip and drank it with confidence, and then took the dry cake next to him and chewed it.

He wiped his mouth and handed the bowl back.

"Fortunately, there is enough food in the city, but this meat is indeed running out, but the wounded must be held on to it anyway." Chang Wencheng commanded.

The pro-soldier bowed: "Don't worry, little general, my subordinates are watching it personally." ”

Chang Wencheng continued to walk on the city wall, and when he saw his soldiers, he would stop him from standing up and saying hello.

After inspecting the city wall and inspecting the repair of the fortifications, Chang Wencheng said: "Let's go, go and see General Luo." ”

The two talked as they walked.

"By the way, are there still people in the city who are on the run?"

The soldiers shook their heads, "Since Shao Tiancheng said that he was going to slaughter the city, the people who fled are gone, and they are tightly surrounded by them, and running out is a dead end." ”

"Shao Tiancheng did us a favor, directly pushed all the people to our side, and let them decide to break the cauldron and defend the city together."

Chang Wencheng said: "That's fine. ”

Came to General Luo's residence.

Just as he saw the military doctor come out, Chang Wencheng grabbed the other party.

"How is General Luo's injury?"

The military doctor first gave up his hand and replied: "General Luo's blood has stopped, and after using the general's alcohol, the wound has not become inflamed again, but it is older, and the wound from the chest to the abdomen has been injured to the root, and I have to recuperate for a while, presumably I will wake up in a few days." ”

Chang Wencheng breathed a long sigh of relief, and after letting people go down, he walked straight to General Luo's room, and saw that General Luo's face was pale, but his breathing was quite steady, but the long cloth on his chest was dyed red, which was a little dazzling.
