There were not many defenders in Nanchicheng, less than 5,000 people, but Gucheng commanded it properly, so that the 10,000 people of Liao Jiang's army could not cross the Lei Chi step. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, Liao Jiangjun's siege method also made Gucheng suffer.

For more than ten days, the attacks day and night have caused heavy losses to Gucheng and the soldiers are exhausted.

"It's not okay to go on like this, sooner or later we'll be dragged down. ”

The deputy general Gou Di has not been disarmed for more than ten days, eating and living on the city wall, his eyes are bloodshot, and he looks tired.

"Alas, I don't know what happened to the eldest brother, he is not sending reinforcements, and we have to give up Nanchicheng and retreat. ”

He had already sent a message to the madman five days before, asking for reinforcements, not wanting Sihe to be besieged as well, but the madman replied that he would soon repel the enemy army and come for reinforcements.

Gucheng didn't know the situation in Sihe City, and really thought that the madman could repel the enemy army to reinforce him, so he tried to support and wait for reinforcements.

How did he know that the status quo of the madman was not as good as his.

In the Xia Dynasty military camp outside the city, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Liao Jiangjun was discussing the military situation with Wang Yan.

"Mr. Wang, it's been more than ten days, shouldn't we break the city, if it drags on like this, the pressure on Your Majesty's side is too great. ”

"Don't worry, we are not the main force this time, that is, beat the side drums and contain them, as long as the people on the madman's side are unable to participate in the decisive battle, our other purpose is to train the troops.

Although nearly 1,000 people have been lost in the past few days, the purpose of the training has also been achieved.

Look at those soldiers, because they have seen the cruel war and are used to seeing life and death, they are no longer as timid as they were at the beginning.

And they have all become fierce and full of murderous aura, and those generals have gradually become familiar with the way of attacking fortifications and understand the tactics of battle, hehe、、。

When the war in the southeast mountains is over, Your Majesty will inevitably move westward, and then your elite soldiers will shine, and I don't need to talk about the rest. ”

Wang Yan smiled and said to Liao Jiangjun.

It turned out that they didn't really fail to take Nanchicheng, but they were taking the opportunity to train their troops, which was Wang Yan's strategy.

Wang Yan knew that they were not the main force, and the reason why His Majesty asked them to come over was to contain them so as to assist him in completing the decisive battle strategy.

Therefore, Wang Yan calculated the time and suggested that Liao Jiang's army in Nanchicheng should not aim to break the city, but to train troops.

Although Gucheng is a famous general, he is trapped in the city, the news is blocked, and he is at a disadvantage in terms of personnel and equipment, even if he has a thousand skills, he is passively beaten.

"How many people are left now?"

Gu Cheng was covered in blood, both his own and the Xia Dynasty sergeant, he leaned against the wall tiredly, and asked the personal guards around him in a hoarse voice.

"General Gou went to count it just now, and removed more than 1,000 killed in battle, more than 1,000 wounded soldiers, and less than 2,500 people who could fight. ”

When Gu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help frowning, there were two thousand five hundred people in the thirteen or fourteen miles around the city wall of Nanchicheng, and if the enemy army attacked the city from all sides, it would be impossible to defend it at all.

"Go to Mr. Yang immediately, and ask him to quickly recruit people to defend the city, and if you don't resist, you will destroy your family and go quickly. ”

"Wow. ”

Now the only way is to recruit the residents of the city to help defend the city, but these residents are not too supportive of them, and it is difficult to make them accept the recruitment happily.

So Gu Chengcai decided to be ruthless.

As a result, there were riots.

Gucheng's order is to kill those who resist, but Mr. Yang, who carried out the recruitment, is a person with a small belly, and he usually remembers anyone who offends him, just to put small shoes on those people and retaliate.

The people did not disagree to help defend the city, so he put a hat on the people, opened a killing spree, and stabbed the basket at once.

Most of the residents of Nanchicheng are original residents, almost all of them are related to each other, because they are in the southeast mountainous area, the people are fierce, and almost all of them are cultivated, and Mr. Yang bullied people like this, which immediately angered them.

Mr. Yang ordered to kill the three members of the family, and he didn't inquire about the background of the family, who would have thought that this family was the concubine of the head of the Lu family in Nanchicheng, although he was not welcomed at home, he was driven out of the ancestral house and lived in the city, but if you killed someone, it was another matter.

Lu Fang is the head of the Lu family, as soon as he heard that his concubine was killed, he suddenly became angry, and led his clan and private soldiers to surround Mr. Yang and his party.

In the end, there were real fires, knives and guns, and casualties, and at this time, Gou Di got the letter and rushed over, if he was a person with a sense of the overall situation, he would take this matter over and suppress the negotiation, and it would be a big thing to turn into a small matter.

But this is also a reckless man, and without saying a word, he suppressed the Lu family in the name of rebellion.

This makes things bigger.

And it happened that at this time, another round of siege by the Xia Dynasty army began, and Gu Cheng was busy commanding the defense of the city, and he didn't notice that there was chaos in the city, and Gou Di left his post.

Gou Di led five hundred troops down the city without authorization, and the Xia Dynasty army, which had no intention of taking the city, suddenly climbed to the top of the city very easily, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"General Liao, our people have landed at the top of the city, what should we do next?"

A tooth general hurriedly ran over to ask for instructions, they did not receive the order to break the city, and they did not dare to make decisions on their own.

"What's going on?"

Liao Jiangjun was a little confused, when the last wave of siege was in the city, the city was still resisting stubbornly, how could it be relaxed in the blink of an eye.

"Mr. Wang, look at this 、、、"

The two discussed, and after two days of exercise, there was a change in front of them, and Liao Jiangjun looked at Wang Yan.

"Forget it, then take the opportunity to take it. ”

Wang Yan felt that the defenders in the city might have collapsed, and he had no intention of playing any longer.

Liao Jiangjun immediately issued an order to send 4,000 men, two regiments of soldiers and horses to block the east and north gates, and the rest of the men attacked from the south and west gates.

The south city gate has always been the main direction of attack, Gucheng is here, the west city gate has been breached, after receiving the order, it was taken in less than a quarter of an hour, the city gate was opened, and the Xia Dynasty army roared in.

Gucheng, who was insisting, couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw it.

"It's over!"

He thought that Gou Di was killed, which led to the destruction of the West Gate, and how did he know that Gou Di was fighting with the Lu family in the city.

The long street of South Chicheng is less than five miles from east to west, less than three miles from north to south, the west gate is open, the Xia Dynasty army rushed in, and the whole city knew in an instant, Gou Di was leading people to suppress the Lu family on the long street, and when he saw the Xia Dynasty army rushing from the side he was defending, his head couldn't help buzzing.

"Oops, it's a big mistake!"

He stomped his feet and regretted it, but it was too late to say anything, he knew that if he went to see Gucheng, he would definitely be killed、、、、
