New Wagang

Chapter 423 Blood Stained Hejian County
Hejian County.

When there was chaos within a hundred miles around Lizhen, Hejian County was also being washed by blood. The city wall in front of the city gate was already stained red with blood, as if a piece of reddish-brown cloth had been hung on the wall. Looking up, the scorching sun is shocking.

Li Chenglong was half lying on the top of the city wall, also covered in blood, there were other people's and his own, panting rapidly in his chest, his eyes swept over the top of the city little by little, and he saw all the soldiers and civilians lying on the bed like him. On the ground, there is no one who is not covered in blood.

Turning his eyes again, he saw that mutton was being stewed in the kitchen below the city tower, and the smell of meat had already wafted to the city wall, but at this time, almost no one looked down, even if they were reluctant to move, in fact, they would It's not because of reluctance, let alone wanting to eat meat and soup, but because they are too tired, so tired that everyone just wants to have a good sleep at this moment.

For three consecutive days and nights of hard fighting, Dou Jiande's soldiers and horses climbed up to the top of the city wall twice. Fortunately, they were able to defend the city wall without any danger, but they also suffered great casualties.

After three days, nearly half of the [-] soldiers and horses were lost. If this continues, the city of Hejian County may be defeated sooner or later.

Then should I just take Wang Cong away from here?

But do you just leave the people in this city like this?

Let go of these sergeants?
After this life-and-death battle, Li Chenglong has also formed a life-and-death friendship with them. Even if Wang Cong left with him for reasons at this time, maybe Li Chenglong himself is a little unwilling to let go.

And a separate place was built in a corner not far below the city tower, and the situation inside could not be seen, but because there was no roof cap, the reflection of the soaring fire light could be seen. As soon as Li Chenglong's eyes touched it, two tears immediately rolled down .

Yes, what was burned there were the bodies of all the soldiers who died in battle!

On one side is the stewed mutton kitchen, and on the other side is the place where the corpses were burned. This situation made it difficult for Li Chenglong to accept for a while.

If Wagang was not so powerful, would it be like this Hejian County?
At this time, there were disorderly footsteps coming from under the city wall. Li Chenglong looked away and saw a group of common people. After they went up to the tower, they picked up the knives and guns dropped by the soldiers on the ground, and their armors were also indiscriminately. Wearing it on the body, some sergeants wanted to drive them down the tower, but they were carried to a corner to rest instead, and then these civilians replaced all the sergeants without hesitation, and the eyes that stood by the battlements and looked into the distance were all the same. The eyes that regard death as home!
Wang Cong came up from the bottom of the city to the city wall step by step. He didn't say a word when he saw this situation, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop". Immediately, all the civilians and soldiers were panicked, and then they also knelt down one after another. And worship.

Wang Cong gritted his teeth fiercely, and was lifted up tremblingly by the soldiers. In the end, no one said a word. Wang Cong turned around and walked down the tower. When he turned around, he glanced at Li Chenglong, then stood still, and looked towards Looking at Li Chenglong, he also bowed deeply.

Li Chenglong quickly stood up and bowed to Wang Cong.

Wang Cong took a deep look at Li Chenglong for the last time, and then turned around and went down the city wall. Li Chenglong's eyes followed him all the time. Wang Cong didn't go far, but asked the sergeant to put on the armor for himself, and then walked into the city gate. out of sight.

However, Li Chenglong knew that Wang Cong was staying inside the gate of the city. As soon as Dou Jiande's troops broke through the city, Wang Cong would be the first to die!


Dou Jiande couldn't sit still.

Although I led 20 soldiers and horses, I only sent [-] to attack Hejian County, but according to the report, there are only [-] soldiers and horses in the city, but they just guarded it for three days and three nights, and I didn't attack the city. !
There was no sound in the big tent. At this time, everyone knew that King Changle was already angry, and whoever took the lead would become the target of the anger.

"Is Hejian County really that difficult to capture?" Dou Jiande stared at Sun Anzu as he spoke, his eyes widened.

The corner of Sun Anzu's mouth opened as if he wanted to explain a few words for himself, but then he fell silent. After all, the result of the fact is that his vanguard battalion did not break through Hejian County, so what he said was in vain.

And Sun Anzu also knows the importance of this battle to the eldest brother. He just became the king of Changle and urgently needs a victory to strengthen his momentum, but he has been unable to break through for three days and three nights. What's the matter with the defenders, everyone is like a ghost possessed, not afraid of death!
"Then can we send more soldiers and horses? Although Hejian County has only one city gate, we have enough soldiers and horses to break through a place where there is no city gate and use it as a city gate to attack." Cao Dan stood up and asked. Sun Anzu broke the siege, and said: "Hejian County has not enough soldiers and horses. Everyone is guarding a city gate and the city gate is only so big. Our army is completely unable to take advantage of the large number of soldiers and horses."

"You mean that our army really doesn't have the ability to attack cities and fortresses other than winning with a large number of people!" At this time, Dou Jiande had the intention of biting anyone he saw, and everyone in the big tent tensed up as soon as the words came out. In my heart, I said that Cao Dan's plan is very good. It can not only reduce the pressure of attacking the city at a single city gate, but also divide the strength of the defenders, and it can also reduce the casualties of their own soldiers and horses.

But whoever heard Dou Jiande's words knew that Dou Jiande had committed a crime at this time, and Lao Tzu's Changle army was about to attack the city from the direction of your city gate!

Dou Jiande snorted coldly, glanced at everyone, and finally landed on Gao Shixing, saying: "General Gao obeys orders!"

Gao Shixing came out immediately, and Dou Jiande glanced at Sun Anzu and said, "Order Sun Anzu's troops to retreat and stand by. Gao Shixing's troops will attack the city tomorrow, and I must take down Hejian County!"

"Get the order!" Gao Shixing immediately took the order.

"Big Brother"

"Huh?" Dou Jiande snorted coldly and interrupted Sun Anzu. Only then did Sun Anzu realize his slip of the tongue, and quickly changed his words: "Changle Wang Rongzhi, our troops have killed five days of bloody battles in Hejian County. Cheng, it only takes one or two more days to conquer the city, and please don't withdraw our soldiers and horses, King Changle!"

"Could it be that you want to bury your entire army in this small Hejian County?" Dou Jiande suppressed his anger, and said, "In the past three days and three nights, Wang Cong has already understood the fighting style of your army. , Could it be that you didn’t realize that it’s more difficult to attack the city every day in three days? Then change to General Gao to attack the city, you’ll understand later!”

"The general will understand!" Gao Shixing bowed and accepted the order again.

Sun Anzu had a face of reluctance, but he didn't dare to openly resist the order. After all, the current eldest brother is no longer just the identity of the eldest brother, and the supreme authority of King Changle cannot be offended!
