Tanzhou, Jianmen Pass

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound of huge siege hammers hitting the city gate kept ringing, one after another.

The Jin soldiers holding their shields were obviously unfamiliar with this kind of siege for the first time, but no one dared to take a step back under the death of the commander.

There were a large number of cloud ladders standing on the city wall, and the Jin soldiers were sieging the city along the cloud ladders, densely packed, like locusts passing through the border.

The arrow feathers and stones on the top of the city tilted down, and from time to time, there was burning hot oil falling down. Just a little light was needed, and the raging fire could instantly swallow the Jin soldiers siegeing the city.

The northern city wall of Jianmen Pass was covered with arrow marks, but it was still motionless. The Jin soldiers had not yet reached the top of the city for five days.

Sheng Nankui, the infantry general stationed in Jianmen Pass, was holding an axe in his hand and another one in his waist, directing the battle to defend the city with fierce eyes.

On the top of the city were not only the Northern Liang army, but also the people of Jianmen Pass, and a few red-headed soldiers who surrendered and were willing to fight with the Northern Liang army. Everyone had sharp eyes and did not retreat in the face of the powerful offensive outside the city.

"In Beiliang, the border troops took a step back and the whole family was beheaded! The same is true in Liaodong today!" Sheng Nankui shouted loudly: "You take a step back, I will kill you! I will take a step back, you will kill me!"

"kill!"

There were waves of roars on the top of the city, and even the people of Jianmenguan who were temporarily involved in defending the city were shocked by this momentum of unity against the enemy.

The blood in the bones of Liaodong people was also stimulated, and the resentment accumulated over the years fell into the city with the arrows and shot towards the Jin soldiers who were sieging the city.

This attack and defense battle lasted for a whole day, and it was not until night fell that the Jin soldiers attacked the city slowly retreated.

As always, the Jin soldiers still failed to climb to the top of the city, but they just left the corpses all over the ground.

Sheng Nankui glanced at the retreating Jin soldiers, spat hard, and then left without looking back.

The Jin army camp outside the city was brightly lit, and this camping place was more majestic than the previous few days. The Jin soldiers gathered here were far more than 30,000 at the beginning.

The commander's tent located in the central army, a black commander's flag was inserted high at the top of the tent, and the pattern on it was the half-full moon.

This means that the Great Jin royal family is already in charge, and only the royal family can be equipped with the full moon flag.

"Waste! A bunch of waste! The sword gate was locked under your nose and was taken away. Now my army of 60,000 gathered here. After fighting for so many days, I can't even touch the teeth of the city tower! What are you doing for raising you?"

An angry curse echoed in the handsome tent. The man who spoke was a bald man, and his forehead was shiny and shining without a felt hat.

This person is Wanyan Liang, the Grand Marshal of Liaodong, whose name matches his hairstyle.

Bright!

A group of generals were scolded and silent, and they did not dare to breathe. No one wanted to touch this bad head.

The Liaodong military marshal's temper is notoriously irritable. Even the Northern Jin Emperor Wanyan Honglie personally told him to restrain his temper.

Wanyan Liang's heart was full of anger. Before leaving the capital, he promised to give the Northern Liang army a heavy blow.

Now, the army on his side had just begun and was about to fight the Northern Liang army. Jianmen Pass was taken away. There was no news about the entire territory of Tanzhou now, and no one knew what was going on inside.

He also gave the opponent a heavy blow, but his side was almost the same as being hit by a heavy blow.

"Speak! It's so mute!" Wanyan Liang slapped the table with a grumpy temper, which scared everyone in the room.

Finally, a general who was in front spoke: "General, the terrain of Jianmen Pass is dangerous and it is really difficult to attack. The defenders in the city are obviously prepared. Our Jin people are not good at siegeing the city, so we let our Jin cavalry dismount

The siege is really a big loss.”

Many people nodded with their heads and expressed their agreement.

Wanyan Liang sat on the chair, feeling upset. He didn't know that it was a stupid thing to let the cavalry dismount and attack the city, but what could he do now?

"What should I do if I can't fight Jianmen Pass? Tanzhou still has 70,000 to 80,000 troops! Let's not care?" Wanyan Liang said anxiously.

In fact, he didn't know that as the Northern Liang army broke through Longhan Pass and surrounded Tanzhou City, there were no more than 70,000 or 80,000 Jin soldiers in Tanzhou.

"General, don't worry too much." Another Jin general comforted him: "General Wanyan of Tanzhou is a steady person, has been in charge of many years and has rich experience. Tanzhou City is also high and hard, so even if the Northern Liang army is braver and braver for a while, the city of Tanzhou City is a long time ago.

I can't beat it in a while."

After hearing this, Wanyan Liang calmed down a little. As a royal family, he still knew Wanyan Zongcheng. He was not a brainless person. It would be no problem to stick to Tanzhou City for a while.

"What should we do if Jianmen Pass do? We still have to take it down. We cannot let the Beiliang army strangle this important throat." Wanyan Liang asked in the direction of Jianmen Pass outside the tent.

Now the Jianmen Pass is like a thorn in his throat, making the Jin soldiers unable to advance or retreat.

The generals in the house began to look at each other again, and no one could think of a good way.

Seeing that the group of people under him fell into silence again, Wanyan Liang's brows became deeper and deeper. When he was about to curse again, someone finally spoke.

"General, we can draw the Red-headed soldiers here to attack the city, and take down Jianmen Pass if we take the lives of people. The lives of my Great Jin soldiers are precious and cannot be easily damaged. The Red-headed soldiers die and die, it doesn't matter." 1

The famous general carefully spoke up and said something that was not a solution.

These words attracted a lot of echoes.

"Yes! Let the Red-headed soldiers attack the city!"

"It's time for them to work hard for us that they can live comfortably on weekdays."

...

Wanyan Liang held his cheek and thought about it. After thinking about it, he didn't think of a better way. He had to nod and agreed: "There is only this now. I will immediately draw the red-headed soldiers from Yanzhou to come here and let Yanzhou build it.

A large number of catapults and cloud cars were sent to Jianmen Pass, and we must take it as quickly as possible!"

"promise!"

Everyone answered in a deep voice.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and finally didn't want to siege the city with their own teeth.

At the top of Jianmen Pass, Xie Xiaolei, Sheng Nankui and others were looking at the Jin army camp with continuous fire in the distance.

"Haha, I have to say that these Jin people really don't know how to attack the city. At present, Jianmen Pass is as solid as a god, and it is foolproof." Sheng Nankui smiled heroically. As a person who has been commanding the battle on the city, his battle against the Jin soldiers

The force is the clearest.

Xie Xiaolei wrapped his hands in his chest: "Most of the Jin soldiers are mainly cavalry combat. I believe that those who are good at siege in the country have been transferred to the Pinghan Road battlefield. These soldiers outside the city should be the first time they are fighting siege."

"Our army has surrounded the city of Tanzhou. As long as we keep here, Tanzhou can be brought down soon!" Lin Xian said excitedly.
