The breakfast is good, including mutton and the most popular sheep head pickle in Bianjing.
Cover the mutton head meat with mesh lard, fry it in oil pan, and make it fragrant.
But Zhang Wen had difficulty swallowing.
"Zhang Zhixian!"
Zhan Wentao came, and after not seeing him all night, he looked very haggard.
"How?" Zhang Wen put down his chopsticks with relief.
"The Tang army did not attack the city."
"It's okay! It's okay!" Zhang Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
"But I guess it's about the same."
Zhang Wen took a deep breath and asked, "When will the reinforcements arrive?"
Zhan Wentao smiled bitterly, "Yesterday the Tang Army's cavalry appeared from the south."
"So what?"
"They quietly took a detour. There was only one possibility: clearing the road from Songcheng to Huangzhou."
Cleaning up all living things left Huangzhou ignorant of the situation in Songcheng.
“Go and see!”
Zhan Wentao said.
Zhang Wen shook his head, "I am sitting in the city to appease the people. You just have to guard the city."
When people are in desperate situations, they will habitually pull others to accompany them.
Zhan Wentao went out disappointed.
"Cowardly as a rat!" he cursed in a low voice.
A sergeant rode over and said, "Commander Zhan, the Tang army has begun."
Zhan Wentao got on the horse in a hurry, his waist was so curved that it was unbearable to look at him.
The Tang army had breakfast and assembled.
Wang Shu led five thousand infantry and gathered in the east of the city.
The three thousand cavalry did not appear.
Using cavalry to attack a city is a waste of natural resources.
Yang Xuan is here.
"Siege the city!"
Wang Shu nodded, very happy that the infantry he led could become the main force in the first battle.
"Siege the city!"
Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the enemy troops appear densely at the top of the city.
"Give them a guy!"
The infantry rushed forward carrying the ladder, and shouted to Lin from the top of the city: "Archers..."
Squeak!
The archer slowly draws the bow, no need to aim, as long as the general direction is good.
In the middle of the running Tang army, the crossbowman suddenly raised his crossbow towards the city.
"Fire the arrow!"
A wave of crossbow arrows caused heavy casualties to the Southern Zhou archers at the top of the city.
Amid the pitiful howls, the archers took cover one after another.
Xiang Lin's face turned pale, "Array! Array!"
Avoiding it at this time is suicide!
The Tang army is approaching...
Bang!
The ladder was set up on the top of the city, and a pair of feet stepped on it, making a heavy creaking sound.
It's like a voice urging death.
"Get ready..." Xiang Linzai shouted.
"kill!"
A Tang army infantry rushed to the top of the city.
Then there was a brutal fight.
"The enemy army is defeated!" The good news just came, and then the enemy army appeared again on the top of the city.
Spearmen appeared densely, pushing forward in waves.
The fighting was extremely brutal.
The Tang army was so brave that one person could occupy a place and let the surrounding enemy troops surround and kill them, but still move forward bravely.
The enemy troops were obviously frightened at first, but under the urging of their superiors, they rushed forward one after another.
The corpses gradually piled up.
Yang Xuan suddenly said: "Take it back."
Wang Shu was puzzled, "Let's do it all at once!"
Yang Xuan looked at him.
Wang Shu's heart trembled, "Ming Jin!"
Clang clang clang!
With the sound of gold ringing, the Tang army at the top of the city began to retreat.
They retreated in an orderly manner, with some cutting back and others assisting...
Those in the rear are the most dangerous, but those figures still have no hesitation.
The last infantryman stood at the top of the city, blocking the pursuing enemy troops alone, and finally fell to the sword.
And in front of him, at least a dozen enemy troops fell.
Yang Xuan said softly: "I am an athlete of the Tang Dynasty... mighty!"
"Mighty!" everyone said solemnly.
"The enemy has retreated!" cheers came from the top of the city.
Xiang Lin smiled and said: "The Tang army is brave, but attacking the city is not that easy. Give them a few hits and they will be honest. Let the brothers rest quickly and drink water when they need it."
Zhan Wentao was at the bottom of the city and came up when he saw the fighting was over.
"Retired?"
"Retreat."
Xiang Lin just hoped that he wouldn't cause trouble.
"good!"
Zhan Wentao said with high spirits: "The Northern Xinjiang Army is nothing more than this. In this battle, I will live or die with Songcheng!"
Xiang Lin silently.
"Did you hold it?" Zhang Wen asked in disbelief.
"We are holding on." The sergeant who came to report the news said: "Brothers worked hard without caring about their own lives..."
"I know." Zhang Wen took a deep breath and ordered: "Prepare the Four Treasures of the Study, I want to write lyrics."
A minor official presented me with the Four Treasures of the Study.
He praised: "Under the siege of the enemy, the magistrate remained calm and calm. If this calmness spreads to Bianjing, the female brothels will definitely spread the song!"
If a civil servant wants to become famous, he must have someone to promote him. And when it comes to publicity, there is no better place than a brothel.
This poem was spread back along with Zhang Wenrong's name, and those brothel girls who wanted to be famous would rush to sing it.
Just like the media in another world, when an issue becomes the focus, various media will rush to analyze it. Even if they don't understand the matter at all, they still have to pretend to be an expert and give advice.
What do you want?
It’s just traffic!
Traffic is money!
And traffic is also money for brothel girls... Only when you become more famous can you increase your worth.
On the other hand, when a man goes to a brothel, as long as he is not short of money, he will definitely choose the most famous female prostitute.
So, it's a win-win situation.
"I have it!" Zhang Wen held a pen in one hand and stroked his beard with the other.
The clerk helped him press the scroll, and suddenly thought of helping him press the woman...
There is no rush here, and so do the Southern Zhou soldiers on the city wall.
"The so-called Northern Xinjiang Army is nothing more than this!"
"I think we can keep it for a year!"
"That's right!"
The morale of the Tang army was somewhat unstable.
"The soldiers feel that we should not withdraw." Wang Shu said frankly: "If you want to attack the city again, you will have to pay a heavy price along the way."
You will experience rain of arrows along the way, and attacks from rolling stones and gold juice while climbing.
Therefore, once the city is occupied, the troops cannot be withdrawn unless forced to do so.
"Rest!"
Yang Xuan did not explain.
Wang Shu left in anger.
"Let them know that Southern Zhou Dynasty is not a soft persimmon, and it is not a bad thing." Han Ji said.
"The Southern Zhou Dynasty is not a soft persimmon." Yang Xuan said: "It is a good thing that the Southern Xinjiang Army is confident during this expedition, but it is too confident."
Han Ji asked: "Lang Jun thinks something is wrong?"
"You can despise the enemy, but you must pay attention to it in preparation.
Strategically, despise the enemy, and tactically, attach importance to the enemy.
These words never get old!
Half an hour later, Yang Xuan nodded, "Get ready to attack!"
The old thief rode his horse around to the west of the city.
Three thousand cavalrymen gathered in the west of the city.
It is a consensus that cavalry cannot be used to attack a city.
Lin Feibao is eating dried meat.
Wang Laoer was also eating. After Lin Feibao finished eating his own, he reached out to get it from him.
"I don't have much left." Wang Laoer felt aggrieved.
"Second brother!" Tu Shang coughed dryly, hinting to Mr. Wang not to be so stingy.
Lin Feibao threw the dried meat into his mouth, his cheeks bulging high as he chewed it.
"The old thief is here."
The old thief dismounted and said, "Mr. Lang asked you to wait and prepare."
Lin Feibao turned around and took a look, "You can attack at any time."
Tu Shang glanced at the Horned Dragon Guards and whispered: "Where did these people come from?"
A piece of dried meat suddenly appeared in front of his mouth, and Wang Laoer said eagerly: "Tu Gong, Lang Jun said, dried meat is high in calories. It won't be wrong to eat some before the fight."
My teeth... Tu Shang ate them with a smile.
A burst of shouting suddenly broke out from the east side of the city.
"The siege has begun."
Tu Shang tightened his grip on the spear.
Most of the defenders went to the east of the city, leaving about 500 people in the west.
But they are all elite.
The deputy general stood at the top of the city and said with a smile: "It is not easy to train cavalry. If the Tang army is willing to use them to attack the city, then I will take over."
The defenders were laughing loudly to lower the morale of the Tang army.
"Come on! Come and eat Yeah Yeah's urine!"
A sergeant stood at the top of the city and peed underneath.
"Tang Gou, do you dare to fight Ye Ye?"
"Girls, hahahaha!"
On the east side of the city, the Tang army attacked the city again.
Yang Xuan looked at the situation and said to Wang Shu: "The whole army attacks."
Wang Shu was stunned, "The enemy army has not collapsed yet! The whole army is attacking now. If it fails, this battle will be in trouble."
"Need me to say it again?" Yang Xuan said lightly.
This is taking the lives of my southern Xinjiang athletes seriously... Wang Shu turned around, his eyes full of anger.
"All troops attack!"
The trumpet sounds.
Woohoo!
"Tang Jun is crazy!"
Xiang Lin's eyes widened, "It's too early for the whole army to attack at this time!"
Zhan Wentao said: "They must be worried about Huangzhou Lei Governor!"
Xiang Lin nodded, "Yes, Inspector Lei is a famous general of our Great Zhou Dynasty. The Tang army will definitely be afraid of him sending troops to attack from a flank."
"Hold on!" Xiang Lin shouted. "As long as we repel the Tang army's offensive, Songcheng will be saved."
Everyone cheered.
"Kill!"
The people of Southern Zhou Dynasty were very popular.
Wang Shu turned around and said, "I'm asking for my orders."
Yang Xuan nodded, "Okay!"
Wang Shu rode his horse forward and rushed forward.
He could not stop Yang Xuan's military orders, but he could choose to stand with his subordinates.
"Send the signal!" Yang Xuan nodded.
"Woooooooo..."
Five trumpets.
West of the city.
Tu Shang stood up and said, "Second brother, follow me."
Wang Laoer muttered, "I can't kill anyone if I follow you!"
"Yeah!" Tu Shang turned around.
Wang Laoer subconsciously covered his face, "Okay, okay! I'll follow you!"
Lin Feibao glanced at Nan He and said, "I'll go right away."
Nan He nodded, "I'll be here soon."
The Horned Dragon Guard and one hundred guards from Uda gathered.
"Attack!"
Tu Shang was the first to rush out.
"Enemy attack!" the enemy troops at the top of the city shouted.
"More than a hundred people." The enemy general said with a smile: "This is to contain our army! Create opportunities for the enemy in the east of the city!"
"Just kill him."
"Archer!"
"Fire the arrow!"
Arrows are like rain.
He ran towards Tu Shang and Wang Laoer who were running towards him.
The shadow of a gun suddenly appeared.
Ding ding ding!
The arrow was bounced away, and Wang Laoer, who had no chance to make a move from behind, rolled his eyes.
East of the city.
Zhan Wentao smiled and looked at the Yang-character flag, and imagined in his mind the scenery of his triumphant victory in Bianjing.
There were really not many wars in the Southern Zhou Dynasty. Apart from suppressing the natives, they also suppressed the rebels.
But how can the natives and those beggar-like rebels compare with the Northern Xinjiang Army?
I’m sure of this great achievement!
Traitor...
An idea flashed through my mind like lightning.
What?
Traitor!
Last time, the rebels broke out suddenly and surrounded the Tang Dynasty envoy and his party, and were eventually defeated.
This matter should have been widely known, but it was suppressed afterwards.
Zhan Wentao is a son of a powerful man and is well-informed.
It is said that the Yecheng garrison was in chaos and insufficient at that time.
At this critical moment, it was Tang Envoy who took command and reversed the situation of the war.
What is the name of the Tang envoy?
He raised his head and looked at the big flag through the smoke.
"Yang..."
"Who is that person?"
"Yang...Yang Xuan!"
Zhan Wentao suddenly became excited.
"The Tang envoy is said to be a famous general in Northern Xinjiang... his name is Yang Xuan."
His face turned pale and he subconsciously shouted: "Yang Xuan!"
Under the city, Yang Xuan had already begun to approach the commander. Hearing the shout, he looked up.
"Someone actually knows my name?"
He nodded slightly.
Zhan Wentao turned around and ran away.
Xiang Lin was directing the fight. When he saw this, he was furious. He went up and grabbed Zhan Wentao and cursed: "Bitch, I asked you to hide at the beginning, but you wanted to come up and take credit. Now you are retreating from the battle, which ruins the morale of our army!"
Zhan Wentao said with a pale face: "That's Yang Xuan."
"What Yang Xuan?"
"Yang Xuan, who commanded the battle of Yecheng, the famous general in Northern Xinjiang... Yang Xuan!"
Zhan Wentao struggled hard, "He's coming!"
That is the famous general from Northern Xinjiang who fought and won many battles with the Northern Liao cavalry. We are not his opponents, let go!"
"Is it him?"
Xiang Lin was startled and his hands relaxed.
"But why did he attack with all his troops?"
"The city is broken!"
A shout broke out from the west side of the city.
Zhan Wentao, who was running, looked up.
Xiang Lin looked up.
The sergeant patrolling the city looked up.
A shadow of a gun danced brilliantly on the west wall of the city. Then, dozens of big men holding iron rods separated and attacked along the left and right sides.
No one can block their blow.
Regardless of whether it is a long knife or a spear, if it touches an iron rod, it will be blown away.
Broken limbs are flying.
The screams were shrill and shrill, like the wails from hell.
"This is...this is a skilled practitioner!" Xiang Lin's expression changed drastically.
At this moment he finally understood.
Yang Xuan violently attacked the east of the city, even pressing forward with his entire army without hesitation, for one purpose.
"He wants our army to have no time for him to take care of." Xiang Lin smiled sadly.
Zhan Wentao turned around and said, "Press it down!"
Xiang Lin shook his head, "This may seem like a ploy, but we have two thousand troops. If we receive reinforcements at this moment, the east side of the city will be breached in an instant."
"Then just ignore it?" Zhan Wentao was confused.
"This is an upright method, irresistible, irresistible!"
"The city is broken!"
Zhang Wen, who was writing lyrics, was stunned, "Who is shouting randomly?"
"The city is broken, run away for your life!"
Several petty officials rushed in, "The Tang army has invaded."
The city gate was opened and the cavalry entered the city.
The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty from northern Xinjiang taught the people of the Southern Zhou Dynasty an unforgettable lesson.
The last remnants of the enemy are waiting in formation.
Xiang Lin stood at the front.
Yang Xuan waved his hand.
The remaining enemy troops were dispersed.
Xiang Lin knelt there on one knee, wielding a long sword, raised his head and said with a smile: "Please tell the world that Songcheng held on until the last moment, and I have never insulted the name of a warrior."
"He is a good man!" Wang Shu praised, "Shijun Yang, how about you spare his life?"
At this moment, Wang Shu's doubts about Yang Xuan disappeared and he became more respectful.
Yang Xuan walked over.
Standing in front of Xiang Lin.
"I am willing to surrender!"
Zhang Wen was caught, and he knelt there and laughed flatteringly.
Zhan Wentao was shaking all over, but he refused to ask for mercy.
Han Ji smiled and said: "This battle is a great victory, Lang Jun is mighty!"
Xiang Lin raised his head and said, "I won't surrender!"
