This fire solved the crisis of siege, but it also brought huge troubles to Chang Yuan and the others.

The fire became more and more fierce, and even their city gates were engulfed in the sea of ​​flames. It was predictable that when the fire extinguished, their city gates would be directly exposed to the opponent's eyesight!
This is also the reason why Chang Yuan finally decided to set fire after thinking about it for so long.

But he had to do this. If he didn't set the fire, they wouldn't be able to hold it now. If they set it on fire, they would still have a chance to breathe.

Right now, the fire is burning fiercely. Although the city gate has been destroyed, the enemy troops dare not rush into the gate. The oiled fire is so powerful that they will surely die if they rush into the fire!
This fire caused Chen Wenlong to withdraw his troops and stop the attack, and also let Chang Yuan and the others breathe a sigh of relief.

"General Chen, Chang Yuan is looking for ideas on his own! Wait until the fire is extinguished! We can drive straight in!"

"To be able to persist under my command for so many days, Chang Yuan is really talented."

……

The fire tends to become smaller at night, Chang Yuan can only let people continue to pour oil on it, and always maintain a certain fire intensity.

sixth day.

"Everyone hold on for another day, and there will be reinforcements tomorrow!"

People in the city are constantly shouting.

Everyone feared and worried, but also had a glimmer of expectation.

Chen Wenlong knew that Chang Yuan was like the turtle in the middle of the old man. While continuing to send soldiers to tire them out, he also sent people to put out the fire with earth.

At this time, there were only 1000 guards on the city wall of Taixi County.

A white cloth was wrapped around Wang Hanting's chest, and blood was still oozing faintly.

But he still didn't go down, and was still fighting bloody battles.

He kept saying in his heart that as long as he survived today, it would be fine.

But God seemed to dislike them so much, it thundered.

Chen Wenlong laughed suddenly, "God bless me too!"

The raindrops are falling gradually, and the rain is getting more and more!

The fire on the city wall is slowly getting smaller!
Chang Yuan's face was pale, and he let the rain fall on his face, washing away the blood on a layer of armor.

Could it be that I, Chang Yuan, will die here today?
Suddenly feeling someone holding his hand, Chang Yuan turned around and found that it was his wife who was also in armor, Mr. Fu Lin.

She smiled slightly at Chang Yuan and said, "I have made arrangements for the child. Once the city is broken, someone will take him away to find General Ma. Then let me accompany my husband."

Chang Yuan also smiled slightly, "It's lucky to have a woman like this, Yuan."

The rain is getting heavier,

The fire on the city wall was extinguished...

"Come on! Get in!"

The imperial army launched a charge!
Rushing into the city along the broken city wall!
Wang Hanting next to Chang Yuan fought hard to protect their husband and wife.

The speed of the rain in the city can't even keep up with the speed of blood.

"Catch Chang Yuan alive!"

"Protect the General!"

"Big brother!"

The field was very chaotic, Chang Yuan and Fu Linjun were surrounded by a group of soldiers.

He didn't think about running away, he knew that Chen Wenlong's target was him, if he was there, maybe his son could escape, if he was gone, Chen Wenlong would definitely rummage around, and no one would be able to escape by then.

"Chang Yuan, stop resisting, stop fighting trapped beasts!"

Chang Yuan stood upright with his sword horizontally, "General Chen, the trapped beast is still fighting! My life is up to me!"

General Chen couldn't bear it, and General Hao who was beside him immediately sent someone to attack them.

……

"Not good! Hurry up! Protect the general!"

Critical juncture!
Ma Honglin arrived with a group of people!
Seeing that the city gate was broken, he rushed in with his soldiers to rescue him.

There was a sound of horseshoes kicking and trampling outside the city, followed by the sound of fighting.

Hearing the familiar voice, Wang Hanting, who was protecting Chang Yuan and was a little exhausted, smiled while supporting his body with the handle of the knife.

He whispered, "Damn it, it's finally here."

Then he barely stood up again, "Reinforcements are coming! Brothers, kill them!"

Hearing the sound of reinforcements from outside, the morale of the soldiers in the city was immediately boosted!
The original desperate resistance turned into a desperate counter-kill!

The court soldiers were in chaos, and Chen Wenlong kept maintaining order, "No chaos!"

"General Chen is not well, and a large group of people has come outside! It is estimated that there are 1 people! We have to get out quickly, or we will be dumped!"

At this time, the gate of the city has been broken, even if they have captured the city, they will not be able to hold it.

Chen Wenlong was a little reconciled, looking at Chang Yuan, who was getting more and more frustrated, and his subordinates who had no fighting intentions, "Withdraw!"

The court soldiers and horses withdrew quickly.

But they divided into two groups, one pair retreated toward the river and the other toward Jiuwan Mountain.

Chang Yuan originally wanted to ask why Ma Honglin arrived a day earlier, but seeing Ning Changrong walking out from behind Ma Honglin, he had the answer.

It was Ning Changrong and Ning Daniu who brought Ma Honglin here.

Ning Changrong has been observing the situation below. He thought that the people in the city were besieged, and communication in ancient times was inconvenient. It was for Chang Yuan, but actually it was for themselves.

In the end, I decided to go to Taizhou Mansion for a walk and talk about the things here. That's why Ma Honglin arrived early and attacked the imperial army before and after.

"Fortunately, we caught up. Thanks to Brother Changrong and Brother Daniu this time." Ma Honglin's back was covered with cold sweat. It was hard to imagine, if they waited until the agreed seventh day to come back, what would happen then?

He talked about Ning Changrong looking for him, and then led the soldiers to march in a hurry, day and night, and then barely rushed over, and it was almost too late.

After all, Ning Changrong was not a member of the army, he was on the road day and night, his face was already pale, and the gap between his legs had already been worn out.

Neither of them could ride a horse, and they were led by other soldiers in the army.

Arrived ten minutes late.

"Did Chen Wenlong and the others all evacuate?" Chang Yuan asked.

Ma Honglin knew the truth of not being chased by the poor, and the most important thing was to protect Chang Yuan.

"Two thousand people were captured, and the rest ran away. Half of them escaped by boat along the river, and the other half went up the mountain."

Fu Linjun was holding her son, and they managed to escape secretly from outside the city gate.

But on the way, he met Ma Honglin and his party. In order to rush on the road, Ma Honglin left some people behind to escort the general's son back, and they continued to speed up the rescue.

Now they are all back in the city.

Chang Yuan was looking at his son, but when he heard that half of the people ran up the mountain, he stood up immediately!
"Not good! Take someone to catch up! They're afraid they're going to find Brother Ning and his gang!"

Ning Changrong was still enduring the burning pain in his legs, when he heard this, he screamed out and stood up immediately: "What's the meaning of General Chang?!" What did the imperial soldiers want them for?
"Brother Ning probably doesn't know yet. The court has already known about your deal with us. Now you have been beaten into the ranks of our rebel army, and you are still my people."

"I interrogated from the inner street in the city. Originally, Chen Wenlong and the others planned to break through Taixi County and deal with you, but now they failed to attack the city, and they must take you back to make a deal!"

Hearing this, both Ning Changrong and Ning Daniu couldn't sit still, flashes of nervousness and fear kept flashing across their faces.

The two ran out without looking back.

But it was quickly stopped.

"Brother Changrong, wait a minute!" Ma Honglin stopped the two of them and said.

"Can you run up and beat them now? That's thousands of people."

Ning Changrong immediately walked up to Chang Yuan, pleading with anxiety on his face, "I implore General Chang to leave my family alone!"

Chang Yuan nodded immediately, "That's what I thought, brother Ning, don't worry, I'll let Hong Lin wait for you to go with me."

After that, Ma Honglin also ordered his men and horses, took Ning Changrong and Ning Daniu and ran all the way towards Taoyuan Village.
