I’m The King Chapter 682: : Why is it too urgent to fry with the same root (4)

Chapter six hundred and eighty-two: Why is it too urgent to fry the same root (4)

Qin Lei, the general guard of Nanzhang, has been anxious these days like ants on a hot pot. Zhao Jun gave up Nanzhang and did not fight. Unexpectedly, outside the city, Zhao General Li Mingjun led 10,000 Zhao Guo's standing army to encircle Nanzhang, and his intention was clear at a glance. , with you all the way!

Zi Lan deployed 10,000 defenders in Nanzhang. In terms of quantity, they are similar to Zhao Jun, but in terms of quality, Qin Lei knows very well that they cannot compare. Zhao Jun and Qin Jun have fought for many years. Although the soldiers of Daijun have improved greatly in the past two years, the real elite soldiers are all under the command of Feng Fayong of Shannan County. There are more than 10,000 soldiers here. They are all recruits recruited in the past two years.

Because of the massacre of Crane City, Nanzhang is now full of righteous indignation and united as one, but as time goes by, this kind of soldiers will gradually decline, facing the demands of the generals in the city to go out of the city and fight Zhao Jun to the death , Qin Lei could only smile wryly and shake his head, I'm afraid that Li Mingjun would get what he wanted.

I am stuck in Nanzhang, and Zhao Qi, who is attacking Xiling, will be scrupled and dare not let go. He can also contain Li Mingjun's troops, and if he goes out of the city for a decisive battle, I am afraid that the Nanzhang defenders will not be able to hold on After a while, when Nanzhang collapsed and the opponents had nothing to worry about, Xiling was really in danger.

Qin Lei is no stranger to Li Mingjun who is currently besieging the city. He is a brave general who has followed Taiwei Zhao Mu for a long time. The man who attacked the top of the Hangu Pass was defeated in the end, and when he retreated sadly, he was the last one to withdraw from the top of the city. Although he was ten years younger than himself, he had fought more big battles than himself Countless times, whether it is the grasp of the battlefield, command or personal force value, Qin Lei feels that he cannot compare with him.

Staying inside the city, relying on the sharp spear crossbows, arm crossbows and other weapons supported by Yan Guozhengdong Mansion, Qin Lei still has the confidence not to let his opponent go too far, but when he goes out of the city to fight, he is a bit weak Not sure. , with you all the way!

"General Qin, I caught a spy." The officer on duty today, Qin Xing, was also his nephew, "This man actually climbed up from the city wall."

"He climbed up?" Qin Lei was startled, "The city wall is more than ten meters high, we poured water on it, and it froze. How did he climb up?"

Qin Xing was holding a coil of thin rope in his hand, with an anchor hook on the end of the rope. General, you report important matters."

A man who conscripted the Eastern Army? Qin Lei's heart skipped a beat. The Zhengdong Army sent troops to help Daijun fight. This is still a secret in Daijun, and it is not known to outsiders except for a very few people. If the person who came claimed to be the envoy of the Zhengdong Army, it would probably not be false.

"Where is this person now?" He asked nervously.

"General, my subordinates knew that the matter was secret, so they brought this person to you immediately. I have specially told the soldiers who have been in contact with this person not to allow them to reveal a single word. "Qin Xing said.

"Bring him to me, um, by the way, Qin Xing, after you go down, tell the soldiers who have come into contact with this person that this person is a spy from Zhao Jun outside the city, intending to spy on my city defense in Nanzhang , has already been beheaded by me." Qin Lei said.

"The general will understand!" Qin Xing strode out.

Two soldiers escorted a tall and thick man in. The man's hands were tied behind his back, but Qin Lei could tell that the man was not nervous. Seeing Qin Lei, he even had a smile on his face.

"Untie!" Qin Lei waved his hand and said.

The two soldiers hesitated for a moment, and stretched out their hands to untie the hemp rope tied around the man's hand, but the man did not retreat, his hand rested on the handle of the knife, and he stared at the big man intently. Climbing up the slippery city wall with only one rope is not something everyone has. , with you all the way!

The person who came caressed the marks on his wrist and said with a smile: "General Qin, your defense of Nanzhang is really tight, I thought I could touch your general's mansion without anyone noticing it. Unexpectedly, just after climbing the city wall, he was arrested."

Qin Lei smiled calmly, "The whole city of Crane City was slaughtered, and the whole people of Nanzhang are naturally soldiers. There are no dead spots on the city wall. If you climb up, there is naturally nowhere to hide."

The visitor nodded, "The matter of Crane City is indeed very regrettable, but the tenacious defense of Crane City has also bought us precious time. I am here to discuss with the general how to defeat Li Mingjun's troops under the city." .”

"Defeat?" Qin Lei raised his eyebrows.

The visitor nodded, "Heng Dao, under the command of Captain Bai Yucheng of the Dongfu Special Brigade." He looked around at the two soldiers on the left and right, and Qin Lei waved his hands knowingly, "You two go down."

The two soldiers turned and left. Hengdao then took out a bamboo tube from his arms, unscrewed the tube, took out a thinly rolled paper tube from inside, and handed it to Qin Lei, "General Qin, I'm going to levy The infantry general of the First Army of the Central Field Army of the Eastern Mansion has led more than a thousand cavalry to the vicinity of Nanzhang in secret."

"Is there only more than a thousand cavalry?" A support soldier came from outside the city, and it was also the world-renowned Zhengdong Army. Even though Qin Lei was steady, his heart was beating. On one side, the balance of victory in this battle tilted towards him. It's just that more than a thousand cavalry are too few.

As if he had guessed what Qin Lei was thinking, Hengdao smiled, "General Qin, you should believe in the combat effectiveness of our Eastern Army. The infantry general is a well-known general under the command of the governor. It is extremely rich. In addition to this cavalry, we also have a special brigade that is also guerrillaizing near Nanzhang. We have already taken the lead in this battle."

Qin Lei carefully read the secret letter in his hand, "Need us to take the initiative to go out of the city to fight?"

"Yes, General Qin, you have more than 10,000 troops under your command, and you have excellent equipment. Compared with Zhao Jun, you are not inferior. The current situation requires us to take the initiative to attack Nanzhang City as quickly as possible. Li Mingjun's troops outside completely cut off the retreat of Zhao Qi's main troops under Xiling City. Otherwise, if the battle is prolonged, the Zhao army will be able to mobilize more reinforcements. Already."

"But this is too risky."

"War is an adventure in itself. In this world, nothing is foolproof." Hengdao spread his hands, "But we must have the confidence to win."

"I need to think about it carefully." Qin Lei's face was serious.

"Okay, but General Qin, please make up your mind early. There are more than a thousand infantry generals in our army. It is not easy to hide for a long time. The longer you delay, the more likely you will be killed." Li Mingjun discovered that this person is also a veteran with rich experience, and after a long time, he will definitely find something strange."

Three days later, in a snow-covered valley dozens of miles away from Nanzhang, Hengdao saw infantry and Bai Yucheng, and more than a thousand cavalry hid here. In the middle of the day, no fire could be made, so everyone could only eat cold dry food with snow water to satisfy their hunger.

"Qin Lei agreed, and Nanzhang has already mobilized the whole city. One day later, Nanzhang will attack with the whole army and fight Li Mingjun to the death." Seeing the two, Hengdao's first words made the infantry grow He let out a sigh of relief, "That's great!" He clapped his hands and celebrated, "The weather is too cold this day, if we stay any longer, the combat effectiveness of my thousands of cavalry will be greatly reduced. Captain Bai, where are you going?" How are you getting ready?"

Bai Yucheng chuckled: "These days, we pretended to be the people of Dai County and attacked Hu Liang's Yuliang convoy everywhere, burning countless convoys, and Hu Liang was so angry that he sent troops to raid everywhere. The toss is miserable, the dead are worthless, and there are many resentments. My people pretend to be the officials of the Dai County, and just a little bit in a row, all the hearts of the people are all aroused. When there is a big war, we can mobilize the people around Nanzhang Tens of thousands of people came to help."

"Such a major event can be settled!" Heng Dao thought and laughed.

"Captain Bai, you still have to be careful on your part. After all, you are ordinary people. If you really clashed with Zhao Jun, the casualties would not be a small number. What I want is that you can attract the attention of Li Mingjun's department." , when the time comes, Li Mingjun will have to deal with Qin Lei's attack on the one hand, and these turbulent people on the other. Once the troops are scattered, our troops will attack, and it will definitely be effective in one fell swoop." Bingbu reminded.

"Don't worry about that~IndoMTL.com~ Together with the battle, Hu Liang's army is scattered on the long supply line, which can't do much. Once the fight starts, Li Mingjun will be unable to escape defeat. After defeating Li Mingjun, Qin Qinhua and Hu Liang will definitely withdraw their troops, and by then, Zhao Qi under Xiling City will become the softshell turtle." Bai Yucheng laughed loudly.

Xiling City is now surrounded by Zhao Qi's three-way army, but after more than ten days of besieging the city, Zhao Qi's seven orifices are full of smoke. He has not even broken the outer defense of Xiling City. , With the support of long-range weapons on the city, they stubbornly repelled Zhao Jun's attacks time and time again.

Zhao Qi, who was well prepared, became more and more anxious day by day. The situation in Daijun was obviously much more serious than he expected. , was attacked by the people of Daijun several times a day, and the food and manpower suffered heavy losses. The food and grass transported to the army under the city of Xiling became less and less day by day. It is because the food is getting less and less day by day.

This made Zhao Qi feel a little regretful, or Zhao Mu's deployment was correct at the time. If he didn't take Nanzhang, he couldn't march into Xiling. P
