At this time

Outside the city of Xuzhou, the two armies confronted each other. Murong Yanchao led an army of 40,000 to the west of Xuzhou. Now Xuzhou City is the difference between east and west, the distance between the two cities is only 20 miles, but the west city is based on a small town to build, even with the full support of Lei Hong, but the city wall is far less tall than the east city, the new city wall is under the persecution of 40,000 troops, it seems extremely small.

Chai Rong's reinforcements had not yet arrived, but Dou Yi's 20,000 reinforcements had already arrived in Xicheng, Xuzhou, and the two armies faced off against each other.

In fact, there is not much difference in strength, but Dou Yi's 20,000 reinforcements are pieced together, and Murong Yanchao's 40,000 troops are personally brought out, and the two are completely incomparable. If it is a flat field battle, it will crush the situation almost without suspense, but fortunately it is only a matter of defending the city now, as long as each performs its duties.

Murong Yan was suspicious by nature, and after coming to Xuzhou Xicheng, he found that something was wrong, just behind the city gate, there was a towering Dharma platform, which was built extremely solemnly and daunting. Moreover, the Dharma platform was built very high, several times higher than the city wall.

Murong Yan rode his horse to the outside of the city gate, pointed the gun in his hand at Fan Zhen on the battlement and shouted: "Fan Zhen, open the city gate quickly, Lao Tzu will remember that you are Lei Hong's son-in-law, and I will not hurt your life." Otherwise, after the city is broken, I won't be able to control the killing of Red-Eye's men. ”

Fan Zhen said with a smile: "Murong Yanchao, you really don't know whether you live or die, and you dare to take the initiative to send it to the door." Don't forget how you died. ”

"That's why I dared to come because I remembered how I died. Murong Yanchao said excitedly: "The temperature in the south, the food and grass in the army are sufficient, at least until this city is captured, Lao Tzu will not die of cold and starvation." ”

"Not necessarily. ”

In just four words, everyone present panicked, and the voice was loud, not to mention, this voice was filled with a terrifying solemnity, as if it was shouted in some empty hall, and the echoes were endless.

As the voice landed, Zong Xin slowly walked to Fan Zhen's side. Zongxin's expression never seemed to change, calm as water, and there was always a smile on the corner of his mouth.

There is no need for others to introduce them, everyone knows who this monk is, and the entire battlefield is silent. Zong Xin has created too many miracles, his name has become a kind of legend, by which he is the soldiers who stand on the opposite side, although they have absolutely victorious forces, no one dares to guarantee that this battle will be won, not even Murong Yanchao.

Zong Xin pointed on his toes, jumped up with his back to the Dharma platform, and then opened his hands and waved them to the sky, and suddenly the sky was covered with dark clouds, several thunderbolts flashed, and the heavens and the earth were in chaos, as if the end was coming.

The whole battlefield was chaotic, everyone knew that Zongxin had magical powers, and he saw it with his own eyes today, but he didn't expect it to be so terrifying when he saw it for the first time. From Murong Yanchao's side, they were almost frightened, and they didn't know what would happen next, although these people didn't believe it, they didn't dare to guarantee that Zong Xin could use lightning to keep bombarding, if that was the case, let alone 40,000 troops, even 400,000 troops would not be able to capture Xuzhou Xicheng.

Suddenly, an east wind swept by, and a dense shadow appeared in the sky, the number of which was unbelievable, and these things drifted very slowly. Half of the soldiers on Murong Yanchao's side sat on the ground, watching the shadows in the sky slowly approach, not knowing what would come down.

"Snow, it's snowing. ”

I don't know who shouted, the original shocked mood improved slightly, if the sky fell only snow, it would be good, I thought it was something terrible, but on the contrary, the weather began to get cooler.

This winter is particularly cold, Xuzhou has always been spring, summer and autumn, and only in the deep winter will people feel really cold. But this year is different, this year's winter came quickly, and the soldiers, who were not used to such cold, had already changed into winter clothes early. It's just early winter, what to do in the depths of winter?

The climate wasn't meant to be so accurate forever and changed a little from year to year, but this year it's become too much, too fast, and overwhelming. But this did not affect Murong Yanchao and his army of 40,000, in his eyes there was only Xuzhou Xicheng, as long as he captured Xuzhou Xicheng, he could sit back and relax.

But Zong Xin's performance just now made everyone start to be afraid, Zong Xin actually made it snow in Xuzhou City, which has always been warm, which is terrible. The weather is getting colder, but the temperature is bearable for the soldiers, but ...... At this time, there were no soldiers, and Murong Yanchao did not dare to order the siege of the city.

Although Murong Yanchao is a reckless man, he is not a fool, and he also has good attainments in the art of war. The other party suddenly used this move, not to mention that there were 40,000 troops behind him, even if there were 100,000 troops, they would not dare to take another step forward. Murong Yanchao's fear of Zong Xin has reached its limit, the original Zong Xin is already terrible enough, and now he still makes Xu Zhou drift snow...... If you can do this kind of thing, how can you fight this battle?

Murong Yanchao himself was not afraid of this Xiaoxue, but he had to take into account the feelings of the other soldiers. Zong Xin's soldiers who surrendered without a fight are really masters among masters.

Although Murong Yanchao had long noticed that this winter was particularly cold, he never thought that it would snow in the warm Xuzhou, so there were even more things to do now. originally wanted to take Xuzhou first in one go, but it didn't seem to be so easy.

"Mingjin withdraws his troops. ”

Murong Yanchao gave an order, and the sound of metal collision sounded in the army, and then the front row changed to the rear team, and everyone slowly withdrew from the range of Xuzhou Xicheng. The originally high soldiers instantly fell to the freezing point, and the whole team was silent, they all suspected that this uprising would stop in Xuzhou, because the enemy they were about to face was too terrible.

Xuzhou Xicheng suddenly set out with earth-shattering boos, although Murong Yanchao's faces were very faceless, they knew that they had to retreat, there were no more soldiers, and all the soldiers were frightened, so they had to sort out the soldiers first and attack again at a later date.

The east wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the weather is getting colder and colder, and Fan Zhen has already distributed winter clothes and supplies, which is just right to wear in this weather. The early winter in the south is as cold as the deep winter in the north, this situation has never been seen before, not to mention that after Zong Xin cast the spell just now, the sky immediately fluttered with snowflakes, facing an unknown opponent, retreating is definitely the most correct choice.

At this time, Murong Yanchao was also scared, and trotted forward on his horse, constantly looking back. He was more afraid of this snow than anyone else, because Zongxin said that he was dying of cold and starvation, and he originally thought that it would be fine to hide in the warm south, but he didn't expect that it would snow in the south, and this is only early winter, what should I do when it comes to the cold winter?

The cold winter is coming, and more supplies must be purchased as soon as possible, otherwise this battle will not be fought at all, and the other party will not need to attack to freeze hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the entire Xuzhou City to death in the city.

It's terrible, fortunately it's winter, and the soldiers and their clothes are increasing, and now it's just cold, but it's not deadly. If the war is started in the summer, it will be irreparable, and this move can almost kill more than half of the soldiers on the battlefield in winter.

At this time, Murong Yanchao found out that the soldiers in the western city of Xuzhou were generally dressed thickly, and it must have been ordered by Zong Xin a long time ago, if this battle really started, the soldiers on the other side would be frozen, but the other party would be warm all over the body, would they still have to fight in this situation? It must be that the whole army was annihilated.

"Xianggong is so powerful, you still use this kind of spell?" Although the demon wanted to jump on the Dharma platform and give Zong Xin a big hug, he then bit him twice, and even wanted to directly strip him naked and correct the Dharma on the spot. But at this time, Zongxin was casting a spell, and she didn't know what the result would be if she suddenly rushed up, although the demon was impulsive, she was not stupid at all, and I am afraid that even a fool would not be able to do this kind of thing.

Zongxin slowly lowered his hand, and then jumped off the altar and returned to the battlement. Everyone looked stupid, Fan Zhen and Dou Yi haven't come back to their senses until now, they really don't want to believe that a person can do such a thing, but the facts are in front of them, no wonder Zong Xin has such a high reputation in the world, everything he does is a miracle.

Zong Xin said softly: "Lord Fan, Lord Dou, this snow will last until the beginning of spring tomorrow, I said that it is useful to buy more supplies for the winter, and now Murong Yanchao does not know how much it will cost to buy it." Of course, he also spent Li Jing's money, and he didn't feel heartache. ”

"Oh~oh~"

The two of them were shocked, and no one reacted in shock, but they probably understood what Zong Xin meant, and the next thing was to defend Xuzhou Xicheng, if Zong Xin had stayed here, he would not dare to attack Murong Yanchao if he had one more guts, but Zong Xin had already indicated that his real destination was Weizhou, which was more dangerous over there. Zong Xin would only wait for Chai Rong's reinforcements to arrive, and immediately take his men and horses to Weizhou.

In addition to the more than 20,000 horses brought by Dou Yi, Xuzhou also has the 80,000 troops that Chai Rong is about to bring, making up 100,000, but if you want to hold the west city of Xuzhou, it will be a tragic massacre. It is believed that as long as Murong Yanchao knows the news of Zong Xin's departure, he will immediately regain his strength and send troops again. However, Murong Yanchao had to prepare warm clothes and battle clothes for the soldiers first, and this matter would keep Murong Yanchao busy for a while.

The army of the Tang Dynasty had almost arrived in Xuzhou, and had brought a lot of supplies. It's just that the weather is changing too fast, and the climate in the south would not have been so cold, this trick has caught everyone by surprise, and they need to reconsider their tactics, and Zongxin has bought precious time for Xuzhou.

Lei Fang said excitedly: "This ...... Master Zongxin is too powerful, I believe that Murong Yan will not be able to organize an attack in a short period of time, and then he can relax for a while and continue to strengthen the city wall. ”

Lei Fang really wanted to announce to the world that Zong Xin was his half-brother. If you let others know that you have such a younger brother, you will definitely die of envy. But Lei Fang still held back, because this matter is really not suitable to say it, and the identities of Zong Xin and Lei Hong are indeed inappropriate, and ...... It also had a great influence on Zongxin's plans.
