Chapter 93: Soldiers Descend on the City
The martial law bell at the gate of Rao'an, the spies sent by Pang Xuan outside the city heard it very well, and seeing the rapid closure of the city gate, the spies of Zhao immediately turned around and rushed to the army, ready to report the situation in Rao'an City.
When Pang Xuan knew that the advance vanguard had killed 100 spies 80 miles away from the army, three of them had fled, and although the advance force chased and killed two spies, one of them still escaped.
Pang Xuan knew that the news withdrawal had been leaked, and the traces of the army could no longer be hidden.
Looking at the direction of Rao'an City, Pang Xuan didn't expect that Rao'an City would suddenly send spies on a large scale, which caused the striker to be careless and let the spies escape back to Rao'an City.
Immediately ordered the army to quickly go to Rao'an City, hoping to enter Rao'an in advance, so as to quickly end the battle in Rao'an City.
"Newspaper. ”
The spy of Zhao State was quickly brought to Pang Xuan by the herald: "General Qiyu, Rao'an City has been under martial law, the four city gates have been closed at this time, and the defenders of Qi State in the city tower have been prepared for battle, and the general is asked to decide." ”
In the army, Sima Zhu looked at Pang Xuan: "General Pang, are we fighting or retreating?"
But Pang Xuan's eyes burst out with a fierceness: "General Chuanben ordered, the front army and the middle army rushed to Rao'an City, and the auxiliary army cooperated with the left and right armies to build siege equipment and prepare to storm Rao'an City." ”
"No!" the herald and the generals agreed in unison.
Qi State Rao'an City, the city lord's mansion.
Guo Di quickly ordered his subordinates to arrange the city defense, and the 13,000 city guards of the entire Rao'an City were also mobilized and recruited, and the four city towers had more than 2,000 people to resist Zhao Jungong City, and the rest were not only ready to support at any time, but also to suppress the people in Rao'an City who were afraid to riot at this time.
The street that used to be bustling and bustling has now become depressed and silent, and the people of all the families are waiting in their respective places at this time.
Either they were unwilling to participate in the affairs of Zhao and Qi, or they were not strong enough to provoke the thousands of vigilant troops in Rao'an City, and they all died down under the coercion of Guo Di.
Juxianzhuang.
At this time, the door was also closed like other courtyards, and in addition to Tian Qi and a few other people from Juxianzhuang, there were also more than 100 people waiting for them.
And the hundred people were different from Tian Qi and the others, each of them stood there quietly, the majestic blood was like a fierce beast, and the cold war knife on his waist was clenched.
These hundred people are the guards sent by Ji Ruxue to Tian Qi's side, and all of them are cultivating martial arts, and the hundred people have reached the realm of martial arts refining qi and transforming gods.
The rest of the two hundred guards of the martial arts entry realm were ordered by Tian Qi to guard another annex in Rao'an City, where there were food and weapons piled up in the new annex, it was the result of their busy three months, and they could not afford to become sloppy.
Before, all the guards were guarding the side of the new courtyard, but now that the war is together, there is an old ghost who personally guards the new courtyard, and Tian Qi transferred the strongest hundred guards to Juxian Village, ready to listen to his Tian Qi's orders at any time.
Tian Qi and the others listened to the neat running sound outside the street, and they could only be the heralds of the city guards to pacify everyone before the battle.
"Knock knock!"
Tian Qi heard the sound of hammering on the door: "Little Brother Gao, go open the door!"
Gao Yanli looked at the hundred martial arts guards standing silently around the courtyard, and watched vigilantly around him, as the leader of the guards, he waved his hand to let everyone let down their guard.
Then he got up and walked to the gate, slowly opened the gate of Juxianzhuang, and looked at a soldier wearing the armor of the city guard: "Is there something?"
The soldier looked at the bamboo slip in his hand and checked, "May I ask if this is the mansion of Prince Tian Qi?"
Gao gradually turned sideways and blocked the soldier's sight: "That's the young master of my family." ”
The soldiers looked at the white-clothed son inside, surrounded by three peerless women, and after making sure that it was correct, he ignored the hundred guards in the courtyard: "Since it is certain, I don't know when this battle will end, I hope you will obey the orders of the county marshal, wait in the mansion, and don't walk around in Chengzhong at will." ”
"Don't worry, I'll understand!" Gao Yuanli responded softly to the other party.
The soldier nodded: "I still have to inform the other mansions and say goodbye!"
Gao Yanli watched the soldiers leave quickly, knowing that the soldiers came to inform them not to walk around in the city this time, it can be said that they salute first and then soldiers, as long as the time comes to disturb the war, they will be killed immediately, and in the end, the sons and hundreds of families will not say anything.
Tian Qi watched Gao Yanli come back from reclosing the gate of Juxianzhuang, and everyone heard the conversation between Gao Yanli and the soldiers before.
But all of them need to deal with their own affairs, but at this time, Guo Di County Marshal does not need help, so everyone can only sit firmly in Diaoyutai.
The rest of Tian Qi's arrangements have also been arranged, and those who should have been ordered have already been ordered, and now they are quietly waiting for the development of the battle situation.
The next step is to evolve according to history and enter the city, and then it will be their chance to make a move.
Now the war has reached the most anxious point, Tian Qi, who is a white Ding, rashly made or meddled in the war between the two sides of Qi and Zhao, not to mention that it is not in line with etiquette.
will even harm Guo Di, the county marshal of Rao'an City of Qi State, and in the end, it is possible that the gains outweigh the losses.
Tian Qi and others sat firmly in Juxianzhuang.
But the army of Zhao State, under the order of Pang Xuan, has already arrived outside the city of Rao'an.
The war has not officially begun, but the spies on both sides have taken the lead in fighting, Guo Di had not yet started martial law, and when he got the news of the attack of Zhao State, he asked his command to report to the King of Qi for help.
But Pang Xuan had already taken precautions, although the movement of the army must be not small, the spies under his command quickly poured into the surroundings of Rao'an City, and blocked all the journeys to Rao'an City, just to prevent Rao'an City from asking for help.
At this time, Guo Di stood on the west gate of Rao'an City, looking at the main army of Zhao State in front of him, his heart was cold, nearly 200,000 Zhao troops were coming, and he had more than 10,000 guards in Rao'an City, and the difference of 20 times made him feel extremely dignified.
Pang Xuan looked at the city's high and powerful Rao'an City, and followed Guo Di on the city tower to look at each other: "Attack?"
"Knock~Knock~Knock~Knock~" The war drums sounded, and the front army of Zhao attacked Rao'an City under the sound of war drums.
Guo Di, who was on the city tower, had a cold look in his eyes: "All the soldiers are ready." ”
The five thousand city guards around Guo Di drew their bows and arrows and aimed at the sky outside the city, and their eyes kept looking at the distance of the infantry at the forefront outside the city.
When looking at only three hundred steps.
"Bang. Guo Di coldly pulled out the matching sword in his hand: "Release." ”
"Xiuxiu~"
The commander at the forefront of the Zhao army looked at the arrows in the sky and quickly shouted, "Emperor." ”
Zhao Guo raised his shield above his head in unison.
Behind the first wave of infantry were the guards with bows and arrows, looking at Rao'an City had already sent arrows to attack, and then the defender general was about to look at Rao'an City: "Wind, strong wind." ”
"Woooo
The arrows of the two countries continued to fly, and the infantry at the forefront felt the help of the guards behind them to suppress the attack on Rao'an City, and the infantry commander quickly ordered and shouted: "Attack with me." ”
The defenders on the city wall looked at the infantry of the Zhao army, who were already preparing to attack the city with their shields on their heads, and ordered: "Listen to my orders, prepare for the oil and rolling stones!"
Pang Xuan saw that the infantry under his command was already attacking the city with a cloud ladder, turned his head to look at the herald and said, "Pass my order, and the siege vehicle will attack." ”
