Chapter Forty-Nine: Poverty

In the middle of the night, Lu Xuan led his eight hundred elites to drill out of the cracks in the city gate that opened like ghosts, and quickly formed a defensive formation in front of the city gate to deal with possible enemies.

However, it seems that the officers and soldiers did not have time to let the horses around the area.

"Do you remember what I said?" Lu Xuan turned his head and looked at Yang Chong and Luo Juan, who came to see him off, his words were said to Yang Chong.

"Hmm." Yang Chong nodded, indicating that he knew.

"What's the matter, Brother Lu?" Luo Juan always felt that these two people had some plans behind their backs, and couldn't help but ask.

"I asked Brother Yang to help Sister Luo at a critical time." Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"What do I have to help, but Brother Lu, you are going out of the city to fight this time, it is very dangerous, but you must be careful." Luo Juan's smiling face was a little fake, since Guo Chang announced that Lu Xuan was named by the Heavenly Master as the deputy commander, Luo Juan looked at Lu Xuan a little embarrassed, and longed for him to die outside.

"Gone!" Lu Xuan hugged Yang Chong.

Yang Chong just nodded and didn't speak, he knew that Lu Xuan went out this time, it was extremely dangerous, he didn't know why Lu Xuan had to go out, but he knew that Lu Xuan had always been quite assertive, since he decided to change it, as a brother, just support it.

Lu Xuan quickly disappeared into the dark night with his eight hundred elites.

"Brother Yang, what did Brother Lu tell you? Can you tell me about it? Seeing Lu Xuan leaving, Luo Juan looked at Yang Chong and wanted to talk.

"It's none of your business." Yang Chong was not in a good mood, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the other party's clichΓ©s, so he coldly refused and turned around and left.

"Can't trust my sister?" Luo Juan felt a little blocked, Lu Xuan was screaming in front of her, why did Yang Chong know how to lift like this?

"yes, what's wrong?" Yang Chong was puzzled, why did he believe her?

Luo Juan felt a little blocked in her chest, and nodded fiercely: "It's very good, Brother Yang will not ask to go to my sister's door in the future, when the time comes, your eldest brother will come back alive, and this kind of affection will never be given!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and strode away, after losing weight successfully, Luo Juan has some long and short legs, and walks a little like a lame, he didn't feel fat before, but now it is obvious when he loses weight.

Yang Chong watched the other party leave, and then slowly walked into the darkness.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the officers and troops once again set up their positions.

Although Yang Ao was not asked, the credit for breaking the city this time was obviously nothing to do with him, under the banner of Lie Liejing, those catapults outside the city wall were sunk into the ground, and they looked a little abrupt in the bare wilderness.

Captain Li frowned and looked at the Confucian scholar on the side and said, "Sir, are you sure that the thief army will not use the magic power of yesterday?" ”

Yesterday's strange heavy snow had a great impact on the morale of the officers and soldiers, these days, people are in awe of ghosts and gods, and the other party has used this kind of magical power to change the world, and their generals naturally know how it came about, but ordinary soldiers do not have this knowledge.

"General rest assured, although the other party can make the official seal, but it is too superficial, and it is too wasteful, like yesterday, the magic power will be exerted, and the consumption of luck will be huge, if it is used like that today, the official seal will be abolished, and then you only need to send a master to the city, and you can fight down!" Confucius laughed.

Yesterday, although the other party used the official seal to induce celestial phenomena, when it comes to the use of luck, Taoism and Confucianism are not comparable at all.

Captain Li nodded, turned his head to look at the main general: "General, is the city besieged?" ”

The main general shook his head and said: "No need, Captain Li, this battle will lead the headquarters to attack the city, and the remaining three schools will be on standby, if the enemy abandons the city and flees, immediately lead the troops to pursue!" ”

"Yes!" The generals commanded in unison.

Captain Li immediately counted his own men, there are three to five battalions under the command of the captain, and Captain Li is full, there are five battalions, yesterday's sneak attack on the city is the first battalion of the battalion, and now the Fuji side died in battle, after Captain Li asked the chief general for instructions, he temporarily promoted one person to serve as the battalion leader.

Captain Li launched an attack with two battalions, and the other two battalions feinted, while Yang Ao, who was also the head of the battalion, was responsible for the response, and would join the attack sequence if the siege did not go well.

Obviously, Captain Li was not prepared to give Yang Ao a chance to make meritorious contributions.

"Archer, stop, open your bow!"

The regular army attacked the city quite methodically, and Captain Li, as an old man in the army, was naturally proficient in these.

The archers, protected by the shield soldiers, quickly enveloped the city walls into firing range, and the clusters of arrows fired by the defenders were basically blocked, and then it was the turn of the archers to exert their might.

Eight hundred archers split the rear flanks of the main siege force and fired arrows at the head of the city, easily suppressing the defenders of the city.

The corners of Lieutenant Li's mouth flashed with a touch of ridicule, the rabble is the rabble, and it is not vulnerable at all, and it was a waste to use catapults to fight yesterday, and so many catapults were damaged in vain.

The two battalions responsible for the attack began to push the ladders and siege engines towards the city gate.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!"

"Where's the rolling wood? Where did the rolling log that you brought up yesterday go? ”

"Isn't the oil burned yet?"

Compared with the orderliness of the officers and soldiers, the city head is a different scene, Luo Juan ran fast with a pair of long and short legs, scurrying around on the city wall, and scolded all of them when they caught one.

But those are all a little skinny, although they know that breaking the city is not good for everyone, but in the face of Luo Juan, they just can't raise their enthusiasm, but the more they scold, the more they resist.

Guo Chang also felt bad: "Didn't Lu Xuan say that he was attacking behind enemy lines?" Why hasn't the officers and soldiers changed at all? ”

Seeing that the officers and soldiers were getting closer and closer, the arrows fired at the head of the city basically did not pose much of a threat, and the siege vehicles had already arrived at the city gate and began to hit the city gate, and the opponent's ladder was also approaching, and the rolling logs and stones falling from the city head smashed on the baffle on the siege vehicle, falling into the crowd, and injuring many people.

If the rebels encountered such a scene, I am afraid that there would be a small rout immediately, but the officers and men seemed to know no fear, and after someone was knocked down, a new one immediately stepped forward with a shield to take over.

"Get out of the way!" Guo Chang listened to the sound of the impact under the city one after another, and was a little panicked in his heart, pushed away the rebels who threw the stone down, reached out and picked up a stone with a big head, poked his head out and shouted, and threw the stone at the siege vehicle.

"Boom~"

The stone thrown by the innate master with all his strength was amazingly powerful, and the baffle wrapped in cowhide broke violently, and even the wrestlers who pushed the siege vehicle under the baffle also had two people who were directly smashed into an inhuman shape.

"Xiu Xiu~"

Almost at the same time, two sharp arrows broke through the air and went straight to Guo Chang's chest and abdomen.

Guo Chang was on one side of his body, dodging one, but the other was unable to dodge, the person who shot the arrow was obviously not an ordinary soldier, these two arrows were not only amazingly powerful, but also quite tricky.

Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Guo Chang could only use his true qi and eat this arrow.

"Poof~"

The sharp arrow directly broke Guo Chang's true qi and pierced his left shoulder.

A congenital master with arrows!?

Guo Chang retreated with a gloomy face, how many innate masters are there in this official army? Just in a moment, he found seven or eight among the officers and soldiers.

On the other hand, on his own side, Lu Xuan has already left the city, and the only ones left are himself, Luo Juan and Yang Chong.

Suddenly, Guo Chang was stunned, turned his head to look around, frowned and shouted, "What about Yang Chong?" Where is Yang Chong? ”

No one answered, and no one could give him an answer, Guo Chang was furious in his heart, but he didn't have time to think about it, the ladder of the officers and soldiers had already hooked the female wall, and an officer and soldier had already begun to climb up the ladder.

Less than a moment after the start of the war, the officers and soldiers had already begun to ascend the city!

Two officers and soldiers held steel knives, and quickly pounced on them at the moment of their heads, and some of the volunteers around wanted to stab each other with their spears, but the spears were cut off by the other party, and then quickly rushed in, and the rebels were vulnerable in front of the officers and soldiers, and only seven or eight volunteers fell in an instant, and the other rebels began to retreat around.

The two officers and soldiers rushed towards Guo Chang on the left and the right!

"Die!" Guo Chang was furious, and killed an officer and soldier with a single knife, and another person fell with a backhand.

But more officers and soldiers continued to climb up the ladder.

"Commander, use your magic powers!" Luo Juan didn't know when to kill and shouted at Guo Chang.

Luck is running out!

Guo Chang was a little reluctant, but in this situation, if he didn't use the official seal, he was afraid that the city would not be able to hold it, so he reached out and touched it in his arms at the moment.

The next moment, Guo Chang looked at the stone seal in his hand, and his face changed miserably.

"Where's my official seal!?"
