Invincible son

Chapter 429 428 [Lonely City]

Kaiping five years, November [-]th, west of Lingzhou, Jiming Village.

The fourth day of defending the city.

The brutal siege battle has been going on for more than an hour.

Xue Meng stood at the head of the city with a special wide-bladed long knife in his hand, and five or six soldiers carrying large shields protected his flanks, fighting with the Wu army who kept leaping up the city wall.

Last time, because of Pei Yue's magical soldiers, Guo Rong, the head of the Western Wu Dynasty, was killed in front of the battle, and thousands of infantry fled back to the camp. The loss was very heavy.In the following period of time, Zhang Qingbai did not use troops against Jiming Village again, so Pei Yue was able to get thousands of reinforcements and a large amount of food and grass from Ning Zhong, and at the same time, the city wall was further repaired and strengthened.

If not, it would be very difficult for Jiming Village to survive until now.

Outside the city is the [-]-strong army of Western Wu, including [-] cavalry, and the rest are infantry.The structure of Jiming Village is special, there are only two walls on the east and west, and the east wall is too narrow, so the west wall is the main direction of attack of Xiwu.This section of the city wall, which is less than two miles long, cannot accommodate too many soldiers. In addition, the number of defenders in the city is close to [-], so both sides can only constantly rotate soldiers.

Precisely because the army that appeared near the city wall was always full of strength, the offensive and defensive battle was extremely tragic from the beginning to the end.

After the fiasco of the last time, the people of Xiwu are determined to take down the hard nail of Jiming Village this time, and take the Daliang South Line Army Village system as their own.They were very well prepared, with all kinds of siege equipment, and there was no temptation or sawing at all. It was the most violent attack from the beginning.

Xue Meng swung his long knife and slapped a Western Wu pawn directly off the city wall, causing the pawn to fall to death at a height of more than ten feet.

Xue Meng didn't even bother to take a look, and continued to advance forward with a knife, relying on his powerful strength to forcibly walk a distance of seven or eight feet.

There are corpses lying all over the city wall, including Liang Jun and Wu Jun, and there are more Wu Jun in comparison.

In the distance, a middle-aged man in his late forties was vigorous and vigorous, and with the cooperation of a young man, he kept killing Wu Jun who was climbing the city wall.

Now that his real name has been restored to Dong Daqian, the young man beside him is naturally Qi Huaijing.

At the beginning, the two escaped from Daokou Village together, and after being rescued by Pei Yue, they participated in the battle of Jiming Village side by side, and were finally left in this military village.Because of his lifelong friendship with Qin Xian's father, Qin Huai, Dong Daqian changed his depressive and indifferent attitude in the past few years, and worked extremely hard to help Qin Xian train sergeants, which naturally won Qin Xian's greatest respect.

"Brat, be careful!"

Dong Daqian kicked down Wu Jun who was about to attack Qi Huaijing, and stepped forward to make amends.

Qi Huaijing smiled embarrassedly, he was still as simple and simple as before, but the difference was that he was no longer cowardly, and dared to fight back desperately in the face of the crazy Wu Jun.

Under the city tower, Qin Xian watched the whole scene with his eyes, and every change in the battle situation fell into his heart. He still has a reserve force in his hand, at least this time the Wu army's siege battle will inevitably end in failure.

But what about next time?

He thought of Pei Yue who was far away on the northern line, and wondered if he was well. Since the last time he saw him, he hadn't heard from Pei Yue for a long time.Now that the situation is in dire straits, Marquis Cheng An's commander-in-chief cannot be sent in, let alone Pei Yue's situation.

You can't count on Pei Yue to come down to save yourself every time.

Perhaps the first meeting was a farewell, and the ending of myself and the comrades around me seemed to be doomed.

Live and die with this army stronghold.

Especially after Hou Ningzhong of Wuwei fled back to Guping Camp in panic, and Xishui Village and Nanshan Village fell one after another, Jiming Village became a precarious isolated city.

Qin Xian raised his gun and walked to the distance, no longer thinking about Ning Zhong's hideous trash.

After the Battle of Lulongzhai, Cheng'an Hou Lu Min was defeated and retreated all the way back to Guping Camp. Wuwei Hou Ningzhong, who was originally responsible for supporting him, only sent out the only remaining cavalry under his command, but led the infantry to retreat in advance.As for Lu Min's initial plan, Ning Zhong's task of supporting and protecting Jiming Village was also left behind by him.

No one knows why such a waste can sit in the position of the coach of the Guping Army.

What is even more incomprehensible is that he first marched rashly and caused the first defeat, and then violated the tasks assigned by Lu Min one after another, but in the end he was not punished too severely, but was temporarily deprived of the command of the Guping Army , held in a temporary prison in Guping Daying.

Although the current Guping camp has a strength of nearly 1, its composition is extremely complex, including nearly [-] Beijing troops, more than [-] Guping troops, and thousands of remnants and defeated generals who fled back from various military camps.Judging purely from the number of people, the Western Wu army approaching the city at this moment does not seem to be so scary, because there is not a huge gap between [-] and [-], not to mention that Liang Jun is the side defending the city.

Qi Yunhou Yinwei, deputy commander of the Western Army, understood that the strength of troops could not explain anything.

The [-] soldiers in the camp were all defeated. Now that the Wu army is in full swing, it has become a very difficult task to hold the camp.

He sat worriedly in the festival hall, and didn't even bother to pay attention to why Lu Min didn't severely punish that trash Ning Zhong.

"Qi Yunhou, how many troops do you estimate can be drawn from the north?" Cheng Anhou looked much older, he was no longer as confident as when he left the capital, and his eyes were slightly sunken.

Yin Wei frowned and said: "Although the northern line has achieved great victories in Xishan, the Longbow Army fought fiercely, and their defense line is also very long. Even if they leave eleven military strongholds, they only stick to the Longbow Camp, and the Marquis of Ning The number of troops that can be divided in the hands does not exceed [-]."

Lu Min pondered: "Where is Zang Fengwei now?"

Yin Wei replied: "The battle report sent by the Marquis of Ning said that Pei Yue led the Zang Fengwei to Hucheng."

"Nonsense! At this time, if he doesn't come to help defend the Guping camp, what is he doing in Hucheng?" Lu Min angrily yelled.

Yin Wei smiled wryly and said: "Master Jun Ji, according to the messenger's report, he found Marquis Ning in Xishanzhai. At that time, the Zang Fengwei had already left. Tang Youzhi handed over all the cavalry under Pei Yue's hands, and there was no way to chase them back. Everything is done." foregone conclusion."

A haze appeared on Lu Min's face. He didn't expect that the northern line would win a big victory, and he didn't expect Pei Yue to be so bold that he rushed to Hucheng non-stop after the battle.

There is no doubt that this disrupted his next plan.

He didn't continue to explode on this matter, and said to Yin Wei solemnly: "Right now we can only draw troops from Jinshui Camp and Longbow Camp, at least keep Zhang Qingbai to the west of Lingzhou."

Yin Wei remained silent.

This move can be said to affect the whole body. If the reserve forces of the two camps in the north and the south are spared, if they lose to Zhang Qingbai again, the consequences will be disastrous. The two people present today will definitely become the eternal sinners of Daliang.

But is there a better way?
