Chapter 616
"Damn, it's really bad luck. Why did Guo Ziyi come back at this time? Plus this group of lunatics..." Tubo Marshal listened to the louder drums and call signs in his ears, and then looked at the chickens beaten one by one on the city wall. The bloody soldiers were furious.

But he has seen Guo Ziyi's ability, and even, he has been defeated by Guo Ziyi several times.So seeing the situation change, he beckoned and said, "Tell them all to come back, let's withdraw!"

It was originally planned to use the crowd tactics to quickly occupy Chang'an.But now that Guo Ziyi is here, so what if they capture Chang'an?He will definitely be kicked out by him later, so it is not worthwhile to sacrifice so many people now!

However, he just heard a little voice now, and he didn't fully believe it, so he just asked people to set up camp nearby, and made plans after confirming that the matter was true.

And at night, they found that clusters of bonfires had been lit around their barracks, and they could vaguely hear Tang Jun's talking and laughing.Even a small group of Tang troops raided their camp at the north gate and burned a grain storehouse.

"That combat method is definitely Guo Ziyi's!" When the subordinate came to report, he bit his tone to death.

At this time in Chang'an, people from the Prince's Mansion of Hanyang County were already beating gongs and drums on Zhuque Street, shouting in unison: "Reinforcements are coming! Guo Linggong has led his troops, and they will be able to strangle all these Tubo thieves immediately." !"

More and more people spontaneously joined the city defense team on the city wall.

On the second day, the Tubo generals gathered in the marshal's camp, all of them looked very serious.

"From last night to this morning, our army has been attacked by the Tang army six times. It seems that they are testing our strength." A general said.

"Besides, the drums around are getting louder and louder. It should be that the Tang army is rushing here!" Another general said.

When the others said one more sentence, the marshal shouted impatiently: "Whatever you want to say, just say it!"

"Marshal, we are just waiting for your word, shall we defend or withdraw?" the generals asked in unison.

The Tubo marshal's face was livid.After going through all the words of his subordinates in his mind, he finally clenched his fists: "Withdraw!"

After all, during the half-month-long mediation with Cui Pu's garrison army, their self-confidence has been shattered.Now with Guo Ziyi robbing from the other side... Their chances of winning have become extremely small.That being the case, they still seize the opportunity to preserve their strength and stop making such unnecessary sacrifices.

And when he said these words, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone took orders one after another and returned to the camp to order.By nightfall, all the Tubo troops had withdrawn thirty miles away, and the half-month-long siege of Chang'an City was finally lifted.

The moment they saw the Tubo soldiers retreating, Hu San and everyone else couldn't help crying.

"We succeeded, we really succeeded! We saved Chang'an City, we saved it!"

Kneeling on the ground with a plop, Hu San cried uncontrollably.

However, after crying for a while, he suddenly remembered something, and quickly got up again: "No, I have to tell the good news to the county king. The county king must know the good news as soon as possible!"

Stumbling into Cui Pu's bedroom, he saw Cui Pu who was still lying motionless on the couch, and Mu Jiaojiao who was guarding the side of the couch with a yellow and thin face.

"Princess, the Tubo army has retreated!" He hastily shouted loudly.

"Really? That's good, we can all rest assured." Mu Jiaojiao nodded, then pulled Cui Pu's hand, "Did you hear that, the enemy has retreated, and you have succeeded. The [-]-day catastrophe in Chang'an It was broken by you."

Cui Pu remained motionless, as if he hadn't heard her words.

Seeing this, Hu San's heart twitched again. "The king...is he still unresponsive?"

Mu Jiaojiao shook his head.

"Then what should we do? Today is already the third day..."

"No, it won't be the third day until tomorrow night. I'm still helping him breathe!" Mu Jiaojiao said softly, reaching out to touch his chest again.When she felt the warm breath, she curled her lips slightly, and relaxed her shoulders.

But what about tomorrow?What should they do then?Hu San really wanted to ask this question.But looking at Mu Jiaojiao's current performance, he still didn't choose to ask the words out.

Soon, another person came in: "Deputy General Hu, someone from the city is calling the door now, saying that it is General Wang Fu, Zhang Zhijie, Wu Chongfu, Changsun Quanxu, etc., but they don't know each other. recognize."

Hu San nodded immediately. "I'm going right now."

He then bowed respectfully to Mu Jiaojiao: "Princess, please take care of the county king here first. Leave the outside matters to your subordinates!"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded, without looking back, but said: "Let someone bandage the wound on your body first!"

"Thank you for your relationship with the princess, my subordinates will."

Hu San responded, then went up to the city wall again, and waited until he realized that the people who came were indeed reinforcements, then he ordered people to open the city gate and let them in.When Wang Fu, Zhang Zhijie and the others saw Hu San and the others, who were covered in blood and could barely recognize their real faces, they were filled with emotion.It's just that now is not a good time to reminisce about the past, so they quickly let their own people in to help everyone clean up the battlefield and replace the city defenders who had already passed out on the city gate.Then beat gongs and drums to make announcements, so that the people can feel at ease.

After explaining everything at hand, Hu Sancai went to the wounded barracks to treat the wound.

Wang Fu was by his side, and was fortunate enough to witness the scars all over his body, and he admired him even more in his heart.He couldn't help asking: "By the way, where is King Hanyang? Why haven't you seen him until now?"

"The king of the county... was injured and is recuperating now." Hu San whispered.

"Injured?" These people were all taken aback when they heard the words, "Could it be that the rumor is true? The county king really got hit by an arrow?"

Hu San nodded.

"Then, why don't we go and see the county king!"

"No. It's inconvenient to visit the county king now." Hu San flatly refused.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and seeing his desolate expression, they knew that the situation must not be optimistic.

That's right, the huge city of Chang'an is guarded by just a few people, and the only general who can do it is Cui Pu.It is already a miracle that he can lead people to persevere until now.And he, the person in charge, is naturally the thorn in the side of the Tubo army, they wish to tear him to pieces!
After that, everyone tacitly stopped mentioning Cui Pu, but each assigned a task and started running around.

Unknowingly, the night gradually darkened, and the outside of Chang'an City, which had been noisy for a long time, finally calmed down.Instead, the people in the city began to tell each other joyfully, and even offered to cook food to reward the soldiers.

And in this vast night, a fast horse gradually came from afar, the sound of hoofbeats broke through the tranquility of the night, and then stopped firmly at the gate of the city.

The soldiers guarding the city gate found out, and immediately shouted loudly: "Who is here?"

"I am the king of Hejian County. When I learned that the siege of Chang'an was broken, I rushed back to the city overnight." The clear voice made the soldiers startled.

He held up the torch and took a closer look, and found that the person sitting on the horseback below had a handsome appearance. Although he was not young, he was still so beautiful that it was fascinating.He was holding a swaddle in his arms, and a chubby little hand stretched out from the swaddle.Holding the sleeve of Hejian County King with his small hands, he looked extraordinarily chubby and pleasing in the night.

They came from other places, and they didn't know any Hejian County King.But since the other party had declared their identity, they hurriedly asked someone to send the message back.Soon, Hu San, who knew Hejian County King, was called again.

Standing on the city wall, when he first saw the person below who was still waiting quietly, Hu San was agitated, and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly open the city gate! He is the king of Hejian County, let him go quickly!" Come in!"

Immediately, the gate of the city opened a gap, and Prince Hejian came in.

"Where are they?" Looking at Hu San who was flying towards him, King Hejian asked in a deep voice with a calm expression.

"The king of the county has been carried back to the mansion of the king of the county, please come down with his subordinates!" Hu San hurriedly raised his feet to lead the way.

Soon, they arrived at the Prince's Mansion of Hanyang County.

"Princess, look who is here!" Leading the person into the courtyard, he changed the red bean and brought Hejian County King in.When she saw Mu Jiaojiao who was still standing motionless in front of Cui Pu's couch, she suppressed her excitement and shouted.

Mu Jiaojiao turned her head slowly.

When her eyes fixed on the Hejian County King who was holding the infant, her eyes suddenly lit up, she stood up quickly, and unexpectedly, she flew over and grabbed his sleeve.

"Save him!"
