In fact, Cui Hu would not be able to see through Wang Zongshi's idea, but it's hard to tell because of Wang Zongshi's face. In short, as long as Wang Zongshi gave up the absurd idea of ​​actively attacking Gao'an, Cui Hu would be fine. Zong Shi said: "Commander. All we can do now is to defend Nanxiong Prefecture well. The most important thing is to cut off the retreat of the Nan'an Army Liu Jiajun."

Without fighting, Wang Zongshi couldn't lift his spirits. Regarding what Cui Hu said, Wang Zongshi just waved his hand and let Cui Hu do it.Cui Hu and others have worked under Wang Zongshi for so many years, and Wang Zongshi still knows their abilities well.

"Commander. Commander." Just as Cui Hu and the deputy general were about to leave to perform military duties, suddenly a soldier came stumbling towards this side while shouting to Wang Zongshi.

Seeing the soldier's appearance, the three of Wang Zongshi frowned at the same time. Most of the defenders in Nanxiong Prefecture were sailors who had followed them for many years.This soldier, Wang Zongshi, was also recognized by the three of them. He was a soldier with a knife in his head, and he was usually very stable. Why did he look so reckless today?

The soldier rushed in front of the three of Wang Zongshi and immediately bowed down to Wang Zongshi, shouting loudly: "Commander Qi, a large number of enemy troops have been found outside the city."

"Enemy." The three of Wang Zongshi exclaimed at the same time. Just now Wang Zongshi was still angry because there was no enemy. Why did the enemy suddenly pop out out of thin air?The lieutenant, who had the same thoughts as Wang Zongshi, immediately showed an expression of excitement on his face, turned his head and smiled at Wang Zongshi: "Commander, it's good now, there are enemies. That guy Gao An didn't know how to live or die. We now Just go out and kill him."

"Wait!" Cui Hu was still as cautious as ever, stopped the deputy general, turned to Wang Zongshi and said, "Commander, don't go out of the city to meet the enemy easily. The general thought that Gao An would never dare to rashly send troops to attack Nanxiong Prefecture. Among them, he must There is fraud!"

Although Wang Zongshi seemed impulsive just now, when the battle really happened, Wang Zongshi calmed down, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said to Cui Hu and the lieutenant general: "No hurry. Let's go to the top of the city first Go up and have a look." After finishing speaking, Wang Zongshi immediately raised his legs and walked out of the mansion, while Cui Hu and the deputy general also glanced at each other and quickly followed.

The direction of the enemy's situation was found to be the North City Gate. When Wang Zongshi arrived at the head of the North City, the enemy troops outside the city had already begun to line up.Wang Zongshi stared at the past from the top of the city, and was also taken aback, because there were tens of thousands of enemies outside the city.Wang Zongshi's face also sank, and he asked Cui Hu behind him: "Cui Hu, can you tell what the origin of the soldiers and horses outside the city are?" Wang Zongshi asked this because at this moment The soldiers and horses outside the city did not show their military flags, and they were wearing very ordinary armor and equipment. At first glance, they looked like bandits and bandits who had always been wild.However, Wang Zongshi would not regard this army as a bandit army. Now that the various places have become increasingly stable under the rule of Zhao Zhen and various princes, how could there be such a large bandit army. [

Hearing Wang Zongshi's question, Cui Hu also stared at it for a long time, but he couldn't see why. The enemy troops outside the city were all ordinary soldiers in front of the formation, and there was nothing special about them. Cui Hu couldn't see the strangeness in it either.Nai, Cui Hu could only reply to Wang Zongshi: "Commander, the general is capable, and I can't tell which route it is."

Cui Hu's words made Wang Zongshi frowned, and at this moment, the deputy general on the other side of Wang Zongshi suddenly called out, pointing to the outside of the city and shouting to Wang Zongshi: "Commander, look. Someone has come out."

Wang Zongshi and Cui Hu immediately looked in the direction of the deputy general's finger, and sure enough, they saw a passage in the middle of the enemy's formation, and nearly a dozen generals on horses walked slowly through the formation. Come out and line up in front of the army formation.Seeing this row of generals, Wang Zongshi's eyes suddenly flashed brightly, because he saw an acquaintance among the team.

"Zhao Guang? It turned out to be the army of the Liu family army." Wang Zongshi led the martial arts landscape army and dealt with the Liu family army's water army a few years ago, and Zhao Guang was the commander in command of the Liu family army's water army. The two fought dozens of times. In addition, Zhao Guang's appearance was much more prominent than that of ordinary generals, so Wang Zongshi recognized at a glance that the person in the middle of the row of generals was Zhao Guang.

"Liu Jiajun? Impossible!" Hearing Wang Zongshi's words, Cui Hu couldn't help exclaiming, but he also recognized Zhao Guang. Looking at the row of generals, he also recognized Zhao Guang. Not only that, he He also recognized Bai Xi, Chen Wu and other generals of the Liu family army, so he had to believe that the army outside the city was really the soldiers of the Liu family army.But even so, Cui Hu still couldn't understand and said: "How could Liu's army's soldiers and horses appear here? And there are so many of them? They have so many soldiers and horses, why don't they go to guard Nan'an Army City? Fight against His Majesty personally lead the army?"

Cui Hu's words also expressed the aspirations of Wang Zongshi and others. It is obviously impossible to understand the sudden appearance of Liu Jiajun outside the city of Nanxiong Prefecture, and there are so many people there.But at this time, Zhao Guang who was outside the city opened his mouth and shouted towards the top of the city: "Wang Zongshi, my army has arrived, why don't you surrender quickly? When will you wait?"

"Hmph!" Hearing Zhao Guang's yell, Wang Zongshi snorted coldly, put his doubts behind him for a while, and said with a cold face: "These people also want me, Wang Zongshi, to surrender without a fight? Dreaming .Come here. Beat the drums. Get ready to meet the enemy." Not to mention Wang Zongshi's loyalty to Zhao Zhen, and now that Nanxiong Prefecture has a strong army, it is impossible to surrender.

There are also nearly [-] defenders in the city, and with the help of Cui Hu and lieutenant generals, Wang Zongshi is not afraid of Zhao Guang's tens of thousands of troops attacking.Following Wang Zongshi's order, the sound of war drums resounded from the top of the city immediately, resounding throughout the sky above Nanxiongzhou City.

Outside the city, Zhao Guang was not surprised when he heard the sound of war drums. He seemed to have expected this to happen a long time ago. He turned his head and smiled at Liu Yi who was beside him, "Liu Yi, uh, my lord. Wang Zongshi really refused." Surrender, now we only have to forcibly attack Nanxiongzhou City."

When he was in the Nan'an Army, Liu Tong, who knew he had no hope of surviving, had already returned the position of the Liu Family Army to Liu Yi. Now Liu Yi is the leader of the entire Liu Family Army. On the other hand, Liu Yi has to be called the lord and the lord.And Liu Yi also nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhao Guang, do everything as you say."

After receiving Liu Yi's authorization, Zhao Guang nodded, and then shouted loudly: "General Baixi, you lead [-] troops to the south of the city, pretending to attack the south gate. General Chen, you lead [-] troops to the city. To the east, feint to attack the east city gate. General Liu Song, you lead [-] troops to the west of the city and attack the west city gate by force. You must take the west city gate today. My lord, we are also launching an attack here to attract the defenders at the top of the city."

After Zhao Guang made some arrangements, all the generals who were called out clapped their fists and agreed, even Liu Yi's younger brother Liu Song was no exception.Zhao Guang's move was false and real, he besieged from three sides, he felt that he would definitely be able to take Nanxiong City.

After making some arrangements, Zhao Guang suddenly turned his head and said to his back: "Several generals, if the battle comes to a stalemate later, please ask some of you to help. I believe there are several groups of our troops as cover." , Song Jun can't recognize a few of them."

After Zhao Guang finished speaking, after a while, a proud voice sounded from the army formation behind Zhao Guang: "Please rest assured, Mr. Zhao, I will know it well."

Hearing this, Zhao Guang twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a mysterious smile, but he didn't say anything more, turned his head and continued to direct the battle.But at the moment Zhao Guang just turned his head, he cast extremely concealed glances at the generals who were about to leave. Those generals saw it, but they didn't speak, and continued to lead the army Set off. [

"Divide troops to besiege the city?" Wang Zongshi frowned on the top of the city, turned his head and shouted at Cui Hu and the deputy general named Zhang: "Cui Hu, you lead 5000 troops to the south gate. Zhang Yuntian, you lead 5000 troops Go to the east gate. As for the west gate, well, let Vice General Liu take 5000 people there." There are enough defenders in the city now, but the problem is that there are not so many generals who can guard the four gates.Send Cui Hu and Hua Zhonglong to the south gate and east gate where there are more enemies, and order one of the other lieutenants to go to the west gate, of course, they will bring more soldiers and horses.

Upon hearing Wang Zongshi's allocation, Cui Hu said to Wang Zongshi with some hesitation: "Commander, you only have less than 5000 people left here, isn't it too dangerous? Only 5000 people are enough for the final general." Cui Hu When Hu mentioned this, Hua Zhonglong and the lieutenant named Liu Kaishan also proposed to reduce their troops. After all, Wang Zongshi guarded the most enemies outside the North City Gate.

But Wang Zongshi said indifferently: "No need, these 5000 people are enough. I see that among the generals outside the city, there is neither Liu Tong nor Nangong Xiong. I don't pay attention to the other generals. You guys Go ahead!"

Wang Zongshi said so, Cui Hu and others couldn't hold on any longer, so they could only obey Wang Zongshi's orders.However, Cui Hu and the others secretly made up their minds that they must always pay attention to Wang Zongshi's movements. If Wang Zongshi's troops were out of strength, they would immediately send someone to help Wang Zongshi.

After Cui Hu and others left with their respective soldiers and horses, the top of the city seemed to be much looser. Wang Zongshi immediately set up a defense line on the top of the city, ready to meet the enemy's attack.And outside the city, seeing the orderly changes on the top of the city, Zhao Guang couldn't help nodding, with a look of approval in his eyes, and sighed: "Wang Zongshi is quite a general, no wonder Emperor Song Zhao Zhenhui will entrust him with a heavy responsibility. It is really a pity that this person cannot be used by the Liu family army."

Liu Yi on the side also nodded in agreement, and sighed: "There are so many talents in the Song Army's camp. It's no wonder that these years, the Song Army's soldiers and horses have been invincible. It is Wang Zongshi, and the two generals under Wang Zongshi, Cui Hu and Zhang Kaishan, are also rare talents. I heard that Cui Hu was one of Zhao Zhen's bodyguards back then. Yun! I really can't figure out how Song Emperor Zhao Zhen could recognize so many talents."

Hearing that both Liu Yi and Zhao Guang praised the enemy general, the general behind Liu Yi, Wang Ziping, quit, snorted coldly, and said with a face full of disbelief: "Master Zhao and Master Zhao praised the enemy general too much. Then Wang Zongshi is not superficial either. What’s so great about it. My lord! My lord Zhao! Let the last general go to the city to take the head of Wang Zongshi. That’s right! And that Cui Hu.” Said Wang Ziping Hateful anger flashed in his eyes.

Zhao Guang was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that it was Wang Zongshi who led the soldiers and horses to surround Liu Tong's retreat outside Jiqinshan City, and Wang Yuanhua, Wang Ziping's father, also died at Cui Hu's. Under the knife.No wonder Wang Ziping has a bad temper!

Zhao Guang originally wanted to stop Wang Ziping, but looking back, even if it was a feint attack, at least he had to send someone to attack. Anyway, he had to send someone, so it would be better to let Wang Ziping do it.Immediately, Zhao Guang nodded and said, "Okay. Ziping, I will assign you 8000 troops to attack the city, but remember, your task is just to feign an attack, just hold back Wang Zongshi's defenders. Don't be impulsive. Wait until the attack is over." The city, Wang Zongshi and Cui Hu can be handed over to you." Finally, Zhao Guang did not forget to tell Wang Ziping, lest he act impulsively and destroy his siege plan.

Wang Ziping didn't expect that Zhao Guang would agree to his request, and he was overjoyed. Zhao Guang told him to agree with his whole mind, and when he clasped his fists at Zhao Guang and Liu Yi next to him, he shouted, "My lord! My lord Zhao!" Please don't worry, the general will always remember your words." After speaking, Wang Ziping hastily ordered soldiers and horses, and headed towards Nanxiong Prefecture City to kill.

"Kill!" With the sound of war drums, the soldiers and horses of the Liu family's army who were already in place at the four gates of the city began to attack at the same time. Looking down from the sky, the Liu family's army outside the city of Nanxiong Prefecture was like a black The tide came from around Nanxiong City.And the defenders on the top of the city did not have the slightest fear, and under the command of their respective generals, they carried out defensive counterattacks.

Among the defensive equipment, the most indispensable is naturally the bow and arrow.The Song Army has always attached great importance to the allocation of war materials, and the reserves of bows and arrows in Nanxiong Prefecture are absolutely sufficient.Under the orders of their respective generals, countless arrows poured out of the city, and those arrows landed in the formation of the Liu Family Army outside the city, and took the lives of many Liu Family Army soldiers in a blink of an eye.

However, those soldiers of the Liu family army who were not "shot" by the arrows turned a blind eye to the threat of the arrows, gritted their teeth and continued to charge forward.Soon, a series of ladders were built on the city wall, and the soldiers of the Liu family army were densely packed, climbing on the ladders like ants, and charged towards the top of the city.

Obviously relying on arrows alone is unable to stop the enemy's impact. On the top of the city, the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen also began to help, throwing down the stones mixed with fire and thunder that had been prepared on the top of the city for a long time.The stones mixed with fire and thunder "powder" fell down, exploded with a roar, and the broken stones flew horizontally.If I was lucky, I was lucky enough to avoid the stone mixed with the fire and thunder medicine. I was almost lucky, and was hit directly by the stone mixed with the fire and thunder medicine. fall down.

However, the screams and bloody smell of the companions aroused the bloodiness of the surviving Liu Jiajun soldiers. They roared angrily, took over the positions vacated by their comrades at a faster speed, and continued to climb upwards.

"Damn it! These kids really aren't afraid of death." The soldier guarding the west of the city beheaded the No. 1 soldier of the Liu family who climbed up to the top of the city, spat and cursed.Shouted to the soldiers on the left and right: "Sword and shield soldiers guard the right side. Spearmen guard the left side. Archers continue to shoot and attack." Although Zhang Yuntian is usually careless, he has been a general for so long. capable.

Under Zhang Yuntian's command, the defenders were immediately divided into three parts. Zhang Yuntian himself guarded the middle with a group of personal soldiers. As long as an enemy climbed to the top of the wall, he would have to face Zhang Yuntian and others to kill him.

Chen Wu, who was commanding the battle outside the city, frowned, but soon he was relieved, his mission was just a feint attack, in order to delay the defenders.Seeing that there are a lot of defenders on the top of the city, this proves that he has completed his mission well.Immediately, Chen Wu shouted to the herald behind him: "Order the soldiers to attack slowly. Don't rush forward." Although Chen Wu had 8000 troops in his hands, compared with the defenders on the top of the city, he wanted to rely on these people to break through The city gate is obviously unrealistic. Although I feel a little distressed, I can only use the lives of the soldiers now. I hope there will be good news from the east of the city soon.
