Chapter 336

The setting sun shone on the top of the city, and the arrows that extinguished the flames were densely inserted into the tower, and several black smoke rose from the city and rushed to the sky, even the birds did not dare to approach the city.

This is the closest location to the land of the Tang Dynasty, and it still retains the style of the Tang Dynasty. It has become one of the few stone-built cities closed by the Tuyuhun border. At this moment, after two days of fierce fighting, it looks quite dilapidated.

Under the rolled-up wolf's head banner, the soldiers rushed to the top of the city to extinguish the burning flames. The corpses of compatriots were also pushed down from the top of the city, and the arrows stuck on the ground and on the corpses were gathered one by one.The bold captain, commanding the blood-stained soldiers, carefully pushed open the city gate, poked his head out, and picked up the wood and stones again, but his eyes were fixed on the front, fearing that something might happen to him. Tang's soldiers turned back again.

On the city wall, Fu Yun wore a cloak with burnt corners, and led a group of soldiers past the battlements, standing on the top of the city, looking at the silhouette of the Tang army spreading at the end of the open land.

Bang.

The big hands slapped heavily on the battlement parapet, Fu Yun tightened his palms, and clasped the hard wall bricks tightly in his palms.

"A mighty 20 army was torn apart by a few lifeless fleas."

"The 3 soldiers in the city are all idiots! Even [-] horses dare not fight! I'm so angry!"

The fierce battle for two consecutive days, although it was to allow the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to climb the tower, it also caused heavy losses to their own soldiers. Even the common people in the city who retained the habits of the Han people also suffered.

The beams and cross-woods of the house were taken away and made into stalwarts to guard the city according to the appearance of the Tang Dynasty. The stone statue of the town house at the entrance of the Dahu mansion was also smashed to make a defensive weapon. Even in the most dangerous moment, Liancheng would use The people with iron spears and arrows were also driven to the top of the city.

Some generals objected at first, but they fell silent after losing two decisive battles in the open field.

The irritable shouts attracted the attention of the soldiers who were sweeping the battlefield around them. The city that had been defended so hard was still to be infamous, and most of the tired faces showed a look of pain.

A tribal leader sighed, walked forward slowly, and saluted.

"Khan, our soldiers have always been used to riding horses in the open fields, and it is very uncomfortable to go to this city."

"What's more, defending the city is Datang's strong point, so it is more handy in their siege."

Speaking of this, the leader took a look at the appearance of the soldiers around him, and took two steps forward to approach Fu Yun.

"Khan, right now the soldiers have been working hard for two days, and they feel extremely bitter in their hearts. If they continue to scold them, they will only become more negative."

"Defending the city and attacking is all about mentality! The morale of the army must not be messed up!"

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Fu Yun let out a long breath, and his big hand that was supporting the city wall relaxed slightly.

"That's all, I won't mention this matter again."

Seeing that Fu Yun's anger subsided slightly, a smile appeared on the face of the leader beside him.

"Leader, I have ordered the flying cavalry under my command to inform Murong Xiaojun of Chishuidu to come to help. I think I will be able to lead the troops here within a day."

"At that time, double-teaming will always swallow the cavalry on the wasteland."

Although Fu Yun is a reckless person, he is by no means a brainless person.

Hearing this for the first time, he was suddenly happy, but he frowned for a moment.

"Murong Xiaojun is the heart and soul of the lonely king. He acts impulsively and has a bad temper. It is true that he is here to help, but the road is steep and it will take some time."

"Send the order to the whole city, and the rescue army will come later. The people in the city only need to hold on to the last day to win a big victory!"

"Let's fly to the first generation of Chishui, let Murong Xiaojun on the way to help be more careful."

"These Tang bandits are really smart."

……

As night fell, the fighting ceased.

In the camp of the Tang army, there were few bonfires, and the cold air was dispelled. The soldiers sat around the campfire.

Looking at the city illuminated by the torches in the distance, Li Jing felt a little anxious.

The offensive and defensive trend changed, although the soldiers of Datang had a lot of experience in siege, but they still suffered a bit when facing the Tuyuhun army who had learned their siege experience in a decent way.

The small number of soldiers also lost [-] in the siege. According to the current situation, whether the [-] or so soldiers under his command could pursue the king city, Li Jing was a little uncertain.What is more worrying is that Li Daozong, who is good at defense, is transferred to the southern front to serve as the leader of the division strategy.

Changing from the old way of attacking all the way to the south, Li Jing was still a little worried, fearing that this tribe would hesitate on the way to attack and delay the opportunity to fight.

Duan Zhixuan folded his arms, his face was a little red from the heat of the flames, and he reported.

"A scout came to report that this tribe has already proceeded according to the plan in advance, and no news has been sent out so far. It must be a smooth journey."

"It's just that most of this tribe will meet Fu Yun's confidants on the way. I don't know if General Li can win this titan."

Li Jing frowned, pondering for a moment.

"No news today, but good news."

"It is heard that the Baiqi led by Li Xian has united with the Xiqiang clan, and there is a tendency to attack the king's city. We have to hold back the Tuyuhun army on the front line. It is safe to break the city as soon as possible to help."

"As for General Li Daozong, send a few more scouts and report every three hours."

There was a pause in the words, Li Jing knew that he was probably a little too cautious when he said this time, so he added a sentence.

"General Li is also a veteran who has experienced many battles. He naturally has his own thoughts on the matter of advancing and retreating. There is no need to worry. All you need to report is some itinerary."

Seeing that the expressions of the generals around him softened slightly, Li Jing just continued.

"If this tribe is captured on the southern line, the morale of the city will be low, and tomorrow is the best time to attack."

"Let the soldiers recuperate and rest, and send more people to guard against night attacks."

All the generals agreed, and then dispersed military orders in the barracks.

The dinner is prepared, the hot porridge is served, and the soldiers sitting around the campfire are not eating those hard dry food. When the whole army is full of satisfaction and joy, a horse runs into the corner of the camp, A voice resounded through the three armies.

"It's blocked, it's blocked!"

"General Li marched swiftly, blocking the Murong Xiaojun clan who rushed to help!"

wow.

The whole army was overwhelmed.

Li Jing hurriedly put down the bowl and chopsticks, and walked out quickly.Surrounded by all the generals, he unrolled the scroll and examined it carefully.

After a while, he burst out laughing, and handed the paper scroll to the eager generals beside him, with joy on his old face.

"Good! Great!"

"General Li marched at night, and finally occupied the foothills that must be passed before rushing to rescue!"

"If you can't attack, then forcefully defend the mountains! You Li Daozong, you can be so flexible! The backup is weak, and our army will attack, so there is no need to worry!"

Striding up to the high platform, Li Jing raised his arms and shouted towards the noisy army.

"It's good to rest, rest for half a day, and attack with all your strength!"

As the good news spread, all the soldiers smiled and raised their hands in unison.

"It must be taken!"
