Han Xiang

Chapter 120 You Can't Grasp It
Long Xiang said lightly, but he couldn't feel at ease in his heart.

Climb up the south tower and ask Tang Yu to call Luo Yicheng to protect the bridge all the way.

Qiao Rui's only flesh and blood, Long Xiang has to protect it no matter what.

After preparing for about an hour, all the people outside the city entered the city.

The whole of Hefei was suddenly quiet, and all the defenders of the city were waiting for the upcoming battle.

Long Xiang already knew Hefei's strategic location well, and it would be indispensable for the future defense of the city.

At this time, Zheng Bao's military threat is quite a test for Long Xiang.

If the test results are bad, he will immediately adjust his future plans, either take people to Jingzhou to wait for Liu Bei first, or hide in the mountains to escape the world completely.

This is like aspiring to take the Qingbei exam, but failed even in the simulation of the senior high school entrance examination. Naturally, one has to face the reality and move bricks and dust.

Everyone stood on the tower watching, Cao Xing suddenly pointed to the south and reminded: "General, Zheng Bao's bandits have arrived."

Long Xiang raised his head on his feet, frowned and sighed, "There are quite a lot of bandits here."

"Analyzed by the marching array, the total number should be 8000 people."

In an instant, Lu Su had already counted the number of enemies.

Long Xiang tried to ask: "Can we hold on?"

"As long as the generals defend the city with all their strength, I don't think it will be a big problem. It's the scorching summer season. As long as we defend against a few attacks, Zheng Bao will surely retreat if he can't win quickly."

It was also Lu Su's first command to defend the city, but he stroked his beard very calmly. He knew that he had to be confident in order to keep Long Xiang calm.

Long Xiang asked again: "That's good, but there are some things I don't understand. Hefei has just opened for a few days, and the control of going out of the city is still strict. How did Zheng Bao find out about Hefei? Shouldn't he be busy with summer harvest at this time?"

Lu Su shook slightly and replied: "I don't know, he will come forward to fight in a while, maybe he can ask the whole story."

"Too."

Long Xiang pressed his hands against the city wall and looked forward with a serious face.

None of the generals next to him spoke, and everyone was waiting silently, waiting for the first big exam in Hefei.

After a while, Zheng Bao led his troops to line up outside the city.

At this time, the city gate of Hefei was closed tightly, the suspension bridge was half suspended, and all the soldiers in the city held their bows and arrows.

Zheng Bao rode on the side of the moat, looked at the generals on the tower and shouted: "No wonder there are wandering horses peeping on the north side of Chaohu Lake. It turns out that Hefei really came back from the dead. You seem to be afraid of me, Zheng Bao? If you know that you are afraid, don't be ignorant of current affairs and let the city be in charge. Come out and meet."

Cao Xing's forehead tightened first, he suspected that his person had been exposed.

Long Xiang and Lu Su were equally shocked when they saw each other, but because they had been guarding against Zheng Bao for a long time, they were not frightened by these words.

Seeing Long Xiang's eyes signal, Tang Yu stepped forward, pointed at Zheng Bao and shouted:

"We have nothing to talk to you about, and those who are interested will leave quickly, otherwise... hum."

"Fun? Leave? Hahaha"

Zheng Bao slapped his chest with a smile, turned around and laughed at the crowd: "This guy is quite good at making jokes."

Tang Yu was ridiculed, and immediately yelled: "Round-faced man, what are you talking about? Get out of here."

"Old guy, you're tired of working, aren't you? Isn't your black face handsome?"

Zheng Bao frowned and looked diagonally upwards, he didn't dare to compliment the bearded Tang Ju's appearance.

Glancing at the hairless Long Xiang, Zheng Bao didn't stop at all, his eyes finally fell on the mature Lu Su.

Zheng Bao mistook Lu Su for the Lord of Hefei.

"Hey, what's your name? Are you in charge of Hefei?" Zheng Bao pointed at Lu Su and shouted.

Lu Su glanced at Long Xiang, and then replied in a cold voice: "The archers in the city are already ready. If they come to die, we will not stop them. I keep asking who is in charge and what they want? Your three-inch thing is not easy to use."

Zheng Bao was taken aback when he heard that, and then he laughed and said, "You think I'm going to say surrender? It's a big joke. If it had been done elsewhere, Zheng was so polite today because he didn't want to spoil the happy event."

happy event?

Long Xiang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and wondered, are you Zheng Bao or Shabao?

All the generals nearby looked at each other in blank dismay, no one understood where Zheng Bao's joy came from.

Zheng Bao explained with a smile: "I heard that Qiao Rui has a pair of beautiful daughters who were taken to Hefei City recently. The ancients said that there are many beautiful women, and I am worried that you will not be able to grasp it, so today I took the wedding team to take them away with good intentions. From now on, we will be Qin Jin." Good neighbor, I have no intention of using soldiers."

Long Xiang has been guarding against Zheng Bao, not to mention the people of Hefei going to the south, even wild dogs are not allowed to go to Chaohu Lake.

Cao Xing's rangers guarded and guarded the sentry while intercepting people who went south without permission.

For such a long time, there was no record of a refugee going south in Hefei, but it happened that Zheng Bao knew about the daughter of the Qiao family. The shock of Long Xiang and Lu Su can be imagined.

Without waiting for Long Xiang and Lu Su to answer, the bridgeman behind suddenly rushed to the front, pointing at Zheng Bao under the city and yelling:
"A man with a round face, even with your picky face, is he worthy? I'm yuck."

Qiao Ni was changing his voice, Zheng Bao was taken aback by his immature cursing.

After hearing this, Zheng Bao couldn't help but choked: "The boy who didn't have enough water was brought to defend the city? It seems that Hefei is really strong in the outside world. I'll give you half an hour to think about it. If you really let me go into the city later. , not to mention that the daughter of the Qiao family has to be taken away, your time of death is coming, and it is not easy to live."

"Noisy, can't understand people's words? Hurry up when you die, and hurry up if you want to get out."

Long Xiang was impatient to hear Zheng Bao pretending to be aggressive, and joined the queue of trolls.

Zheng Bao was enraged in an instant, he drew his sword and pointed at the city tower and cursed: "It's another young man who doesn't have enough water, these idiots in Hefei don't know the current affairs.

Brothers, step down the city for me, and get your property after entering the city. "

"it is good."

"Kill it."

"Push to the ladder to cross the river."

"Pay boards on top."

Almost in an instant, Zheng Bao stopped talking and directing the attack.

Although he threatened just now that he was here to take a concubine, he was already ready to attack the city.

There are no large-scale equipment such as rams and catapults at the scene, but dozens of aerial ladders have been prepared.

Zheng Bao can become a hero, and his brain is also very good. The reason why his attitude was soft at the beginning was because he wanted to find out the details of Hefei verbally.

According to past experience, those who are strong like to fight, and those who are strong but capable like to bicker.

Zheng Bao saw that all the generals in the city were impatient, so he guessed that the number of defenders in Hefei was small, so he decided to attack boldly.

Even if Long Xiang sent the Second Bridge, Zheng Bao would definitely enter the city to loot.

A wild dog with a habit of eating shit will never give up when he sees a piece of fat in front of him.

Zheng Bao's bandit soldiers used the ladder as a bridge, and soon crawled to the opposite bank like ants.

The arrows in Hefei City are precious, and they are reluctant to launch them if they are not within the range.

Throwing weapons such as bricks and stones have a shorter range than bows and arrows, so the defenders let the opponent cross the moat.

Long Xiang handed over the command to Lu Su, and seeing that Lu Su didn't wave the command flag, he was anxious, and shouted loudly: "The thief is getting closer and closer, shoot quickly, shoot quickly."

"The distance is not enough, wait a little longer." Lu Su blocked it with a serious expression.

Zheng Bao saw how easy the moat was, and couldn't help but taunt loudly:
"Hahaha, you guys have the guts to sit on beauties with only this level of level? You really overestimate your capabilities."

bang rumbling
Lu Su flicked the command flag, and followed the city wall like rain, thundering like summer thunder.

Seeing this, Zheng Bao's expression suddenly became solemn. He saw himself hit by an arrow from a bandit soldier, and his head was broken and bloody from being hit by a stone.

For a moment, the laughter turned into wailing.

"Rush, rush, rush."

"Shieldmen pay attention to cover."

"Put the ladder up first, then climb up the tower and you will be victorious."
