"What the city lord said is extremely true." Zeng Chengfei said: "Take Qiu Jin this time, the two cities in the northwest are ours, and when the time comes, we can destroy Yan Xiao in Fengshan." ”

Speaking of Yan Xiao, Xue Qian said: "Fengshan Yan Xiao is very strong, I'm afraid it won't be easy. ”

Zeng Chengfei said with a look of indifference: "No matter how strong his combat power is, he can't beat our powerful army." ”

"Destroy Qiu Jin first."

After Xue Qian finished speaking, he divided the army into two, and the soldiers divided into two ways to take the circle tower city.

On the upper floor of the southern city of the circle tower city, Qiu Jin finished checking the fortifications and was discussing the military.

Yuan Zhida said: "City Lord, now that Xue Qian has divided his troops into two ways, as long as he defends the city, Xue Qian will definitely not be able to enter, and he will naturally retreat when the time comes." ”

"Can't you go out and fight?" Qiu Jin asked.

Yuan Zhida said: "If you go out of the city to fight, it is naturally good to win, but if you don't win, I'm afraid you won't even be able to defend the city." ”

"City Lord, I am willing to go out of the city to fight Xue Qian." Leng Yue on the side said.

Qiu Jin was originally hesitant, but now when he heard Leng Yue say this, he was a little impulsive, and said: "Okay, Leng Yue, you bring a banner of troops, go to the West City Gate, and give me a hard beating, and I will personally guard here." ”

"Yes." Leng Yue answered, turned around and walked down the city tower, and headed west with the army.

Xue Qian led the army to the city gate, set up a formation, surrounded the south gate of the city of the ring tower, and shouted: "Qiu Jin is not here, do you dare to come down and fight?" ”

Qiu Jin was on the city tower, looking at Xue Qian's arrogant appearance under the city, he wanted to go down immediately, but he still controlled it.

"Hmph, you still need me to go down, I advise you to get out of here." Qiu Jin shouted from the city tower.

The more angry Qiu Jin shouted, the more proud Xue Qian became, and said with a smile: "The city will be mine soon, if you don't surrender, when will you wait?" ”

"Hahaha, watch me shoot you to the hornet's nest." After Qiu Jin finished shouting to the city tower, he turned around and ordered all the archers to mount their arrows.

There was a sound of "swish", and several rows of archers on the castle tower drew arrows from their quivers and put them on the bowstring and took a position under the castle tower.

As soon as Xue Qian saw that Qiu Jin was about to start, he immediately took a few steps back, and with a wave of his hand, the archers of the two battalions lined up in two phalanxes, pulled out their bows and arrows and rushed forward.

Seeing Xue Qian's archers attacking, Qiu Jin shouted, "Shoot them down, don't let them get close." ”

As soon as the voice fell, hundreds of arrows flew out and shot towards the archers in front of Xue Qian.

With so many arrows shot down in a concentrated manner, the archers in Xue Qian's front row couldn't resist it and fell into pieces.

"Rush." Xue Qian's archer battalion commander shouted, and rushed forward with the archers within range.

Above the city tower, just when a wave of arrows was changed, Qiu Jin shouted: "Hurry up, kill." ”

Arrows fell in waves, raining down on Xue Qian's army, and several people fell to the ground along with the arrows.

"Shoot the arrows, don't stop, and suppress the archers on the tower." An archer battalion commander shouted desperately, and arrows shot out of his hand, right in the middle of the castle tower with an archer.

A succession of arrows followed the commander of the archer battalion and flew towards the tower, landing on the parapet and the army, disrupting the formation of the archers on the tower.

Seeing that the archers had already fought against the Qiu Jin army on the city tower, Xue Qian said: "Zeng Chengfei, bring a banner of troops, attack." ”

Zeng Chengfei was born as a thief, and he was very scheming, it was very dangerous to attack the city gate, as soon as the city gate was broken, the army inside would rush over, all supported by combat power, otherwise he would definitely be killed.

But at this time, you can't say no, you can only say: "Yes, city lord." He raised his silver sword and shouted, "Brothers, charge me." ”

As soon as the shouting fell, the army behind him shouted and rushed forward, and Zeng Chengfei followed the army to kill together.

In a large-scale attack, the archers on the tower had no time to resist, so they could only shoot at will.

Qiu Jin stood in front of the parapet and swung his silver spear to slap down the flying arrows.

Seeing that Xue Qian's army arrived under the city gate, Qiu Jin retreated to the back, ordered the commander of the bow battalion to stay in the city tower, went down to the city tower himself, gathered a group of spearmen, and blocked the city gate hole.

Zeng Chengfei was under the city gate and ordered the soldiers in front to attack the city gate.

Under the attack of wave after wave, the city gate flew out into the city with a "bang".

"Kill." Zeng Chengfei saw that the city gate was broken, and shouted with a silver knife.

The army around Zeng Chengfei rushed past Zeng Chengfei in the killing cry and went into the city.

"The spear rises and thrusts forward." Qiu Jin shouted.

The city gate was blocked by a group of spearmen, and the first rows of spearmen directly raised their spears and walked forward under the push of the soldiers behind.

The two armies fought in the cave of the city gate, and the spears pierced the attacking soldiers, and they fell down one by one.

The Xue Qian army in the back continued to rush forward under the command of Zeng Chengfei, disrupted Qiu Jin's spearmen formation, and began to fight in the city gate hole.

The front fell, the back followed, and unconsciously, Zeng Chengfei rushed to the front and happened to meet Qiu Jin.

Looking at the combat strength of both sides, he knew that it was not an ordinary soldier, Qiu Jin raised his silver gun and pointed it at Zeng Chengfei and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Zeng Chengfei smiled crookedly at the corner of his mouth: "Listen, Zeng Chengfei, who is known as the fox of the mountain thief, is me, you should be Qiu Jin, right?" ”

Qiu Jin sneered twice: "It's just a shameless bandit, Qiu Jin's name is not something you can also call, go die." Qiu Jin's silver spear stabbed at Zeng Chengfei.

On the side of Zeng Chengfei's body, the silver spear passed through Zeng Chengfei's chest, and with a turn of footsteps, his body rotated towards Qiu Jin along the silver spear, and the silver knife in his hand fell towards Qiu Jin with the rotating body.

Qiu Jin withdrew the silver spear and held the body of the spear with both hands to block Zeng Chengfei's attack.

The two armies fought fiercely in the city gate cave, Qiu Jin and Zeng Chengfei fought for more than 20 minutes, could not resist, and retreated.

The army behind passed by Qiu Jin, sealed Zeng Chengfei, and fought around him.

Zeng Chengfei saw that he was rushing too far, surrounded by Qiu Jin's soldiers, and immediately moved backwards and retreated into his own army.

After more than an hour, the two armies were at a stalemate at the gates of the city. Xue Qian, who was outside the city, saw that Zeng Chengfei could not break through the city gate, so he could only order the withdrawal of the army.

Zeng Chengfei received the order and led the army to withdraw from the city gate cave while fighting, and returned to Xue Qian's side.

Xue Qian was already unhappy, but when he saw Zeng Chengfei, he was even more angry, and scolded: "What are you doing, you can't get a city gate in half a day." ”

Returning in vain, Zeng Chengfei knew that Xue Qian would scold, and he thought about it on the way back, and said: "City Lord, dissipate your anger, the first time you didn't capture it, there is a second time, the main thing is that this time it frustrates their spirit, and if you attack it again, you will definitely break the city." ”

Now it is only possible to rest the army and prepare for the second siege. Xue Qian was helpless, and ordered Zeng Chengfei to prepare for the second siege of the city, and captured another person and asked, "How is the progress in the west?" ”

The soldier replied, "The battle report just sent has begun to attack the city. ”
