Manniucheng is not big, but with its close proximity to Qiu'an City, it has borrowed light from its rich neighbors.

Originally, the city lord here was a subordinate official sent by the General's Mansion, and the two smaller Yue Mu Zhan and Pei Shixiong, who were entrenched in the north of Youyun Prefecture, were afraid of the great power of the General's Mansion and let them go.

But after the fall of the General's Mansion, the two vicious wolves instantly showed their fangs, slaughtering this person and the people of the General's Mansion under their jurisdiction, and the city was naturally taken into the pocket.

If it goes into my pocket, it is mine, and whoever wants to take it out again is against me.

As for who originally owned this thing, and who it should belong to now, does it matter? It doesn't matter.

What matters is the position, not the facts.

Therefore, this time, Mu Zhan and Pei Shixiong jointly sent 3,000 soldiers and horses, and Bao Shouyi, the fat man, gritted his teeth and made up 2,000 people, cooperating with Murong Cheng's three-sided encirclement, trying to succeed in the first battle, and drive King Jing, who dared to covet his "own foundation", back to Changsheng City.

At this moment, it was noon, the sun still had some summer heat, and a few thin men were holding scimitars, retracting into a little shadow of the battlements of the city wall, with shiny beads of sweat on their faces, which were the defenders who were ordered to guard this section of the city wall

"We are really in decline, we couldn't go to Qiu'an City to threshk grass and get some oil and water. A thin man complained.

"Come on, just your little board, can you run to Qiu'an City? Don't fall off your horse and drop the ball directly. Immediately, a man joked.

"That's it, if you still threshing grass, you can't be a horse thief. ”

It seems that this man belongs to the character who has always been ridiculed, and other military men also joked together.

In fact, each group is like this, each has its own position and role, and if you act according to this, everyone will be happy and peaceful.

The thin man kicked his legs and collapsed on the ground, "I see, we are not as good as the horse thief, people eat in large pieces, drink in big bowls, what can we do, we can't talk loudly." ”

"Okay, it's over, isn't it?" said one of the group, a slightly stronger, boss-looking man, "and when the generals return victoriously, we will be indispensable for guarding the rear." The young master leaked some oil and water from his fingers, and it was enough for you kid to eat!"

"Boss, you said that there would be no problems with them, general?" asked the thin man.

The boss snorted, "What's the problem?" There are 3,000 people on our side, and there are still 2,000 people in Crescent City, and if you can't take 5,000 people, you can take Qiu'an City, which is guarded by more than 100 people?"

"But we only have about a hundred people, what if someone comes to beat us?"

"Are you fucking stupid, King Jing is so stupid, all of them are under Fengyang City, where is there anyone to beat us?" the boss looked angry.

"For example...... The horse thief !!" a man just got up and moved, looked out of the city, and after being momentarily stunned, shouted with all his might.

Several people got up from the ground and looked at the city, and a team of menacing troops, although they were dressed in tatters, rushed straight towards the Wild Bull City.

One

Look at the horse thief!

"Don't panic, after the general left, he specially ordered to close the city gates on all sides, they can't enter!"

The boss was still a little calm, and instantly figured out this problem, as long as the city gate was unobstructed, these horse thieves did not have much ability to attack the city.

"Brothers, go and bring the bows and arrows, let's defend the city, that's a great achievement!"

A powerful commander can adjust the psychology of his subordinates in an instant and mobilize their enthusiasm, so it seems that this boss is still a buried talent.

The people took the command, and in the blink of an eye, they brought in the nearby hard bows and arrows.

"Brothers, take aim, and when they stop under the city, we'll release the arrows!" exclaimed the Boss in a deep voice.

The crowd drew their bows, and pointed their arrows at the horse thief below.

The group of horse thieves below did not slow down, and rushed straight towards the city gate.

The people on the city wall looked at each other, what was this for?

"Boss, why don't they stop?!" shouted the thin man.

"Shout! Who do I ask me!" the boss was also confused.

So, in their eyes, a team of horse thieves of two or three hundred men rushed into the city in such a big way.

On the city wall, the boss howled angrily, "What the fuck is going on!! isn't the door closed?"

On the edge of the city gate, Yunluo let out a sigh of relief, in order to try to keep the lives of the soldiers guarding the city gate, he almost failed to complete the task.

Last night, he had already lurked near the Bull City with a group of horse thieves, and he himself sneaked into the city quietly, in order to be able to cooperate with the outside and take the Bull City at the lowest cost.

The horse thief rushed into the city, causing the inhabitants of the city to jump, and one of the horse thieves relapsed into his old habits, laughed and raised his scimitar and slashed at the head of an old man who was in a hurry to dodge.

A cyan shadow flashed away, pulling the old man aside, and then directly split the horse thief in half with a sword, and said in a deep voice: "If anyone forgets my words, I can help him remember!"

The two halves of the corpse fell off the horse's back, and the horse thieves were in a state of distraction, and they quickly returned to order under the rectification of the military discipline officer that Yunluo had selected a long time ago.

Half of them rushed to the city wall, and the other half went straight to the city lord's mansion.

Within an hour, the head of the city changed the banner of the king, and the banner of King Jing was planted on the wall of the barbarian bull city.

Yunluo stood at the head of the city, looked at the dozens of defenders who were escorted on the opposite side, and said with a smile: "Who is the leader here, come with me to deliver a letter?"

The same story happened in Crescent City.

Jian Qi and the general's subordinate officials led the team to eat the Crescent City, and firmly planted the banner of King Jing at the head of the Crescent City.

Then, there was also a defender, "accompanied" by Jian Qi, out of Crescent City.

-

When people are hearty, they inevitably feel that the wind is gentle and smooth, as light as a swallow, and someone in the southern court has written a poem, called "the wind is proud of the horseshoe disease"!

Pei He, Pei Shixiong's own son, the commander of the Pei and Mu coalition forces this time,

is also full of ambition, the wind is proud, only feel that the horse's hooves under the crotch, the rear soldiers point, all the enemies will be talking and laughing, bowing their heads.

And when the banner of the Bao family appeared in his field of vision, he was even more confident, and even felt a little dissatisfied for a moment, feeling how good it would be to let himself enjoy such a credit alone.

At that time, there will be rumors on the grassland that Bo Mu Shi will transfer the tiger away from the mountain and sit firmly in the wind; Pei River will run thousands of miles and go straight to Qiu'an; the four princes will be surrounded on both sides and will be defeated and take away immortality.

Listen, what a long face, what a glorious story, what a legendary story!

But if you think about these things, forget it, at most you will have some regrets in your heart, and he still knows the truth that multiple helpers are more stable.

So he lightly clamped the horse's belly and met the leader on the opposite side.

Bao Shouzhong, Bao Shouyi's younger brother, is also the leader of the Bao family's private soldiers in Crescent City this time.

In fact, from this point, we can also see the huge gap between the Mu family, the Pei family, the Bao family and Murong Cheng.

For various reasons, their employment had to be attached to their relatives, but Murong Cheng had been able to let go of recruiting talents and dispatching talents.

Bao Shouzhong and Pei He greeted each other briefly, then joined forces and went straight to Qiu'an City.

The soldiers are fast, hurry up and take Qiu'an City, and then there are big things to do.

In the hearts of the two, they did not take Qiu'an City, which was only more than a hundred defenders, in their eyes.

What's more, they will also have an internal response, which will enable them to eat Qiu'an City at the lowest cost.

At this moment, in Qiu'an City, behind the east gate, there are a full 500 sergeants standing neatly.

The armor on them was dull, and there were no traces of swords and guns, obviously they had not experienced the tempering of blood and fire on the battlefield.

But this person looked calm, without the slightest nervousness and fear before the army pressed the border.

At the front of the line, there were two people, Mei Ziqing, who had always been elusive, was only wearing simple black clothes, no armor, and was bored fiddling with her slender and clean fingers.

Another fully armored sergeant, with a face under the helmet, turned out to be Yelu Jincai, who was supposed to go out with Pei Zhen!

And the five hundred people behind him are all the elites of Xue Wei!

Mei Ziqing said lightly: "I've finished interrogating those details that should be inside and out, how about it, have you thought about how to fight?"

Yelu Jin said calmly: "Open the city and attack, just kill it directly." ”

"It's that simple? There are 5,000 cavalry on the other side, and you only have 500. Mei Ziqing raised her eyebrows, obviously a little disbelieving.

"The immortal master doesn't know, this cavalry battle is already mysterious, otherwise there wouldn't be so many classic examples of winning more with less. If the cavalry can kill the opponent thoroughly, kill through, kill the cold, and run in a panic, the men and horses will just be lambs to be killed. ”

Mei Ziqing nodded, remembering Chi Xuance's repeated words before leaving, he was not a little impressed, he looked at Yelu Jincai, "Have you ever thought about a question?"

"Immortal Master, please speak. ”

"How many people will you die if you fight like this?"

Yelu Jincai was silent for a moment, and after a while, he said slowly: "In war, people always have to die. ”

"Do you remember Xue Zhen, oh, that's what your King Jing told you, right? You followed him to enjoy happiness, not to die. Mei Ziqing stared at Yelu Jincai's eyes, "Therefore, it is very happy to be able to die one less." ”

Yelu Jincai's heart was shocked, "But these five hundred brothers ......"

"It is enough to have me, to have the talisman in the bosom of each of you, and to have your five hundred hearts that have died as confidants. Mei Ziqing repeated the sentence that Chi Xuance confessed word for word, only to feel a little churning in her stomach.

Who would have thought that Yelu Jin was shocked, and he was already in tears!

Mei Ziqing couldn't understand what was going on in the minds of these soldiers, so she could only say speechlessly: "I'll do what I say for a while, and when it's time for you to attack, let me see what the cowardly Xue Wei of the famous grassland is capable of!"

"Okay!" Yelu Jin nodded sharply.

While the two were chatting, the last five hundred people did not move.

After a while, a figure ran down from the city wall and knelt down on one knee in front of Yelu Jincai, "General, the enemy army has reached five miles outside the city. ”

Mei Ziqing nodded, Yelu Jin waved his hand, and the last five hundred cowardly Xue Wei were divided into two groups, one group spread out to both sides, hidden in the market and private houses, and the other group climbed the watchtowers on both sides of the city wall and city gate, where sufficient arrows had already been prepared.

A bunch of fireworks rose into the air from outside the city, bursting into a puff of white smoke in the air, and Mei Ziqing nodded heavily at Yelu Jincai.

Pei He and Bao Shouzhong looked at the city gate nervously, whether they could take Qiu'an City at the lowest cost depended on whether this city gate could be opened directly.

Under thousands of pairs of expectant eyes, the heavy city gate slowly opened with a heavy sigh.

"Rush!" Pei He was about to take the lead in charging, but was stopped by Bao Shouzhong next to him in a low voice.

Pei He also understood in an instant, the shape in the city was unknown, how could the coach be the first to take the risk at this moment, he gratefully hugged Bao Shouzhong, and Bao Shouzhong smiled back.

Although cautious, the two don't think there will be much turmoil.

The horses neighed, the horsemen roared, and their eyes lit up, as if they had seen the wonderful scene of burning and looting after rushing into the city.

Huh? Why is it not right? Why do I seem to be flying? How is the man who has no head on a horse so familiar?

These were the last thoughts of the leading sergeant.

It seemed to others that they were rushing towards the empty gate, and their heads flew up.
