Chapter 116: Battle of the Siege

9days ago Wuxia Novels 12
The next day, Long Yi stood firmly on the Nanning city wall, looking southward.

The sun shone on his face, shining brightly. In the wilderness, the vanguard army led by Su Hu confronted each other with the coming prince army. The wind roared on the battlefield, and the situation was blew.

In the middle of the battlefield, Su Hu rode a fiery red war horse, standing alone, carrying a heavy and sharp sword, wearing a battle helmet, and golden armor. Under the sun, it shone with golden light, and a solemn and violent murderous aura emanated from him, making the thieves on the opposite side frightened.

Dozens of steps behind Su Hu, a young general in silver helmet and silver armor pulled his horse and speared his gun, ordering hundreds of soldiers around him to shout loudly, insulting Zhu Yao, the chief general of the Crown Army in front of him, forcing him to fight quickly and not be as timid as a mouse in front of the army.

Su Hu is worthy of being a tiger general. Facing the prince's army that is nearly ten times his time, Zhu Yao was not nervous or even confident. He was scolded. At this time, he rode a war horse and led his army to stand in front of his camp. His face turned ashen, staring at Su Hu in front of him with hatred and angrily, turned to ask his subordinates and asked: Whose hand did Ruan Ba ​​die?

A general under Zhu Yao, named Ruan Tianci, caught the defeated soldiers who fled back after the last war and asked loudly. The defeated soldiers pointed at Su Hu with their fingers and replied: It's him!

Zhu Yao snorted coldly and said angrily: Ruan Ba ​​is really getting back and forth. How could he die at the hands of a stinky boy? Come on, come and catch that boy and kill him!

At this time, a military general around Zhu Yao rushed forward and bowed: General, the last general is willing to go to fight, kill that stinky boy, and offer him the general!

Zhu Yao turned his head and saw that it was his confidant Zhang Chong, and smiled and said: You should be willing to go, remember, you must succeed in one battle!

Beside Zhu Yao, Ruan Tianci couldn't help laughing and said: Zhang Chong, I heard that there are many beautiful women in Nanning City. If you kill Su Hu, we will rush into the city to enjoy the beauty together!

Yes, I heard that there are many noble daughters from the Celestial Empire...

The generals next to them laughed and were talking filthy. They were happily talking about how everyone should enjoy the beauty if they attacked the city and caught those beauties.

Zhu Yao had no airs when he got along with these subordinates, and he couldn't help laughing. He could only say that he was having fun with everyone. Su Hu was far away and had never heard it, otherwise he would have been there early in the morning. Although Su Hu didn't hear it, Long Yi standing on the city wall could hear it clearly and was extremely angry. If it weren't for his special identity, he would have killed this group of princes without leaving any armor.

At this time, Zhang Chong slapped his horse out of the formation, holding a heavy mace in his hand, pointed at Su Hu, and shouted: Su Hu, let’s see how I will kill you today!

Little thief, don’t be arrogant!

Su Hu slapped out the horse, swung his sword and took Zhang Chong straight, and was about to kill the evil man who dared to speak frivolously. Before the war horse could reach Zhang Chong, he heard the bowstring sound. Zhang Chong screamed, turned over and fell off the horse, knocking the dust on his head, and howled, but a carved feather poked out on his chest, and the arrow was pointed deep into the heart, which was a fatal injury.

Su Hu turned around and saw that Long Yi stood proudly on the city wall holding a bow and arrow. This Chong was at least four or five miles away from Long Yi. Long Yi could actually shoot Zhang Chong at such a distance, which was not surprising.

You traitors actually rebelled with the prince and deserve to be punished!

Long Yi called out an order and said at the same time: Su Hu, kill these thieves for me!

Su Hu knew that it was the emperor who was so angry that these bandit generals were also to hit the morale of the Crown Army, so he shot Zhang Chong. Although he saw that Zhang Chong was already lying on the horse, he had never killed this evil man with his own hands, Su Hu was still depressed. If it weren't for the emperor who shot Zhang Chong, Su Hu would definitely have cursed with his comrades who shot Zhang Chong for a round!

Seeing that the Emperor Long Yi was so great, the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty couldn't help but cheer, treating Long Yi as a god, and cheered throughout the sky. On the other hand, Zhu Yao was shocked. Only then did he realize that the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty had personally arrived in Nanning. He was immediately in a state of great disturbance. Zhu Yao's subordinates had already clamored loudly, denounced Long Yi as sneaky, stealing, and scolded Long Yi not to hurt people in secret arrows, which was not the style of a king.

At this time, Su Hu waved his hand and told others to retreat and not interfere in his single-handed fight with the enemy generals, so as not to disturb his interest in killing the enemy. Seeing that the commander had given him, the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty did not dare to disobey them, so they retreated one after another.

Zhu Yao listened to the insults coming from afar, and was so angry that Mars burst into flames. He wanted to slam the horse and rushed out on the spot. He fought with Su Hu. Ruan Tianci next to him stopped him and said loudly: Why use a ox knife to cut a chicken? The marshal will watch coldly for the time being, and wait until the last time he will catch the boy!

Ruan Tianci waved a cooked copper stick, urged the horse to rush out, pointed at Su Hu and shouted: "You little brat, do you dare to fight with the old man with a clear sword and a spear?"

Su Hu had long been so anxious that his hands itchy. He rushed to him and waved his sword to slash. Ruan Tianci hurriedly raised his stick to block it. He heard a loud bang, and his arms were numb. He said in his heart: This kid is indeed not easy to deal with. At a young age, why is he so strong!

Looking at the big sword in Su Hu's hand, it was thick and thick, looking more than forty or fifty pounds, which made Ruan Tianci frightened.

In front of the two armies, there was no distraction. Su Hu shouted loudly and waved his sword and slashed wildly. A sharp sword aura rushed towards Ruan Tianci. Ruan Tianci held up a stick to block it, and the two horses circled, fighting with Su Hu.

Su Hu's family has a long history and is skilled in swordsmanship. With the powerful power he has practiced for many years, a big sword flew around Ruan Tianci, and the cold light shining, and immediately rolled him in it.

After a few rounds, Ruan Tianci gradually became a little panting. Su Hu saw a flaw and slashed hard. Ruan Tianci couldn't resist and screamed and was chopped under the horse. The armor cracked open, blood burst out, and fell to the ground. He could only vent his breath, but no more venting.

In the Celestial Army, there was a thunderous cheer. A young general ran over quickly, cut off Ruan Tianci's head, carried it back and hung it high on the bamboo pole, and demonstrated to the Prince's Army in the south.

In the Crown Prince's Army, the soldiers were stunned and everyone was ashamed. Two famous generals were killed one after another as soon as they went to fight. It was said that they were not good at the army. The enemy was so brave, how could our army continue to fight?

Zhu Yao's face turned pale and gritted his teeth and looked to the side. Seeing that his morale was already depressed, if he could not win the previous game, he was afraid that this battle would be unfavorable.

He could hear the shouts from the other side from afar, all of which were insulting Zhu Yao to be timid and incompetent, and would only send his men to die, but he did not dare to fight with General Su Hu here to death.

How can such an incompetent person be qualified to be the commander of the army?

The soldiers followed him, but I am afraid that after all, they would inevitably die.

Zhu Yao was scolded so much that he was so angry that he saw that his subordinates had no powerful generals, so he had to slap him in the battle. He thought to himself: Ruan Tianci must have accidentally failed. Although this kid had good sword skills, he was a young man after all. After all, he would definitely not have enough strength when he fought two games in a row. As long as I could catch him, would he be afraid that his subordinates would not be in chaos?

Zhu Yao came to the two armies and looked at Su Hu who was thrusting his sword in front of him, and couldn't help but feel indignant. Su Hu stared at the enemy general, his murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and said calmly: "Here you are the general, and you are the nameless person under my command!"

Zhu Yao was angry, and he waved his three thighs in his hand and laughed: I am Zhu Yao, the marshal of the Crown Prince's Army. You, a boy who is still not dry, should come here as soon as possible to avoid suffering from a dead head!

He said this, intentionally angering Su Hu so that he could make his swordsmanship reveal flaws. Sure enough, this statement made Su Hu furious, his face flushed, and said angrily: "A man, take me a knife!"

The big sword slashed towards him, with a thunderous momentum, and the sword was extremely sharp.

Zhu Yao was shocked and did not dare to neglect. He hurriedly raised his fork to block the frame with force. He had to make a loud noise. The copper ring on the fork was violently shaken. Zhu Yao's arms were also numb and he couldn't help but be shocked.

In the rage, Su Hu swung his sword technique hard, but when he saw the swordsmanship, waving in the sky, rolling up a strong wind, and sweeping Zhu Yao into it, Zhu Yao was shocked. While desperately resisting Su Hu's attack, he said in a panic: Why is there such a powerful person? I am afraid that the number one master in the Crown Prince's Army, Fan Tian, ​​will come in person, and he is not his opponent!

The wind surging, the wind and sand are everywhere.

In the yellow sand, the two generals used all their strength to fight hard in the middle of the battlefield, with a loud shout and a loud shout, and all the weapons were resounding throughout the audience. The exquisite tricks and violent momentum made the soldiers on both sides stunned.

On the battlefield, the two generals fought fiercely and gradually distinguished themselves from each other. Su Hu was strong and his tricks were taught by his old father. He was very exquisite and used in his anger. His power was so powerful that it shook the sky and the earth, making Zhu Yao gradually unstoppable. He screamed with pain, and his heart was shocked and frightened, and it was hard to describe it.

Suddenly, Su Hu swung his knife in his rage and finally revealed a flaw on the left. Zhu Yao was overjoyed, swung his fork to block it, and used his strength to raise the fork to stab Su Hu's left flank. He no longer thought about capturing Su Hu alive, but only hoped that he could defeat him and not die in his hands. It was already a blessing for heaven.

At this moment, Zhu Yao suddenly saw a sarcastic sneer on Su Hu's young face. The fiery red war horse ran forward and easily avoided Zhu Yao's all-out attack that he was determined to win.

Su Hu's murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he raised his sword and slashed down wildly. The violent sword aura made Zhu Yao's back quickly feel a cold air rushing in.

Zhu Yao's steel fork had just pierced a hole, and was desperately retracting it to block the deadly sword. The sharp blade had already slashed on his back. In an instant, he slashed his slanted shoulder strap arms, and half of his body fell from the horse, falling into dust.

Zhu Yao had only time to let out a scream, and he died two times under his horse. The war horse under his crotch was swept by the blade. He had a painful neigh, and ran away with his bloody half of his body.

Seeing the head coach tragically died in the middle of the battlefield, the prince's soldiers were so scared that they were trembling all over. They looked at Su Hu's handsome and majestic figure in the battlefield from afar, and their eyes were filled with surprise, suspicion and fear.

Su Hu was bathed in the sun, her body was full of golden light, like a god of war, waving her bloody sword and shouting loudly: Zhu Yao is dead, who else dares to come up to fight!

This sharp roar rumbled past the crown prince's head. Seeing the commander known for his bravery beheaded on the spot, everyone was ashamed of death and had no desire to fight.

Long Yi saw clearly above the city wall. Seeing that the enemy was defeated, he raised his gun and shouted: The entire army encircled and annihilated, and killed a few more bandits, and made contributions to the country!

The Celestial Army, ambushing the east and west sides, and General Liu's central army, rushed out together, surrounding Zhu Yao's 50,000 troops. Su Hu took the lead and rushed out. The generals of the battalions behind refused to neglect them. They led their troops to break out like a tide, and they covered the enemy troops on the opposite side.

The army of the Celestial Dynasty, which was roaring wildly, quickly crushed the enemy's defense line like a giant wave slammed the shore. Although the bandit generals led their personal troops to fight to the death, they could not stop the waves of fierce offensives and were killed on the spot. Fifty thousand bandit soldiers fled in all directions, most of them still kneeled down and surrendered and became prisoners.

In the rear of the army, General Liu was dispatched in the middle and organized. Under his assignment, the flags were waving. The generals of each army looked at the flags and attacked them in different directions, chasing and intercepting the prince's army from all directions, so that the number of soldiers fleeing the enemy soldiers was reduced to the lowest level. Seeing that the enemy had been wiped out, Long Yi, who was commanding the central government on the city wall, finally showed a happy and excited smile on his face.

Under Qinzhou, large troops gathered. The Tianchao army was facing the strong city and was ready to attack the city. Although they only had more than 100,000 people, compared with the rebels in the city, although the number was 50,000, the training level was far greater than that of the mobs in the city. They gathered under the tent of General Liu, the Grand Marshal, and obeyed his command.

Qinzhou is only two hundred miles away from Nanning City, and it is easy for Long Yi to return. Some generals originally proposed to trap them in the city so that they would not have any food supplements. In the end, they had to surrender. However, news came that a vassal king was leading reinforcements to prepare to help the prince. Therefore, General Liu decided to attack the city as soon as possible. If he could capture the city before the reinforcements came, it would be the best.

Long Yi is an amateur when it comes to siege. Although he is the emperor of the Celestial Empire, he did not interfere with General Liu's command. He stood under the city honestly and watched General Liu, an expert in siege, command the army to attack.

Qinzhou City originally did not have a very high city wall, and there were only more than 10,000 people in the city. After the Prince's Army used Qinzhou as the base camp in the south, the city wall here was much taller and thicker, and it was much easier for the soldiers to defend. Long Yi watched helplessly as the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty pushed the wooden donkey carts to the moat, rushing to the moat, throwing the sacks of mud into the river, and filling the moat as quickly as possible so that people can pass.

This moat is the natural Qin River. Fortunately, it is winter now, the river water is not in a hurry, and the river water is very shallow, so the army quickly built a path on the river surface under the rain of arrows from the Prince's Army.

When the moat was filled, the river overflowed and flowed to the low-lying land. The soldiers of the Celestial Empire rushed across the river in the rain of arrows, set up a ladder to climb up the city wall, and fought fiercely with the enemy. Although they killed and injured some of the enemy, they also paid a huge price and suffered numerous casualties.

After the tentative attack, General Liu ordered Su Hu to be the vanguard of the city and increase the attack strength. The fierce fighting and blood-filled city wall battlefield made Long Yi, who was supervising the battle in the distance, couldn't bear to look at it anymore. He turned his head and gritted his teeth secretly, sighing that he had not yet practiced to the extent of being cruel and ruthless. He was already unbearable to see such ordinary battles. Only by experiencing more cruel battles can he practice to the point where the famous generals in history regard human lives as grass.

After a day of hard fighting, General Liu finally ordered the Mingjin to withdraw his troops and lead his army back to the camp. In the camp, Long Yi sat upright in the position of commander, his face was as deep as water. He looked around the generals of the battalions below and said in a deep voice: You have seen today's battle. According to such a siege method, how long will it take for us to capture the city?The enemy reinforcements will arrive in a few days. At that time, we will face the situation of being affected by the enemy, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

Su Hu said: When we return to the emperor, we must increase our efforts to attack the city in order to have the hope of capturing Qinzhou and establishing an invincible place before the enemy arrives.

When the deputy general Huang Zhong, who was sitting next to him, was trying hard to attack the city. I don’t know how many people were going to die. When he remembered the bleeding death that he saw today, he felt his throat dry. He stood up and bowed and smiled bitterly: Emperor, according to the last general, the city has high walls and there are 150,000 defenders inside, even more than 50,000 more than our army. It seems that it is impossible to capture this city quickly. It is better to siege the city to fight for reinforcements. As long as we eliminate the reinforcements of the bandits, we are still afraid that the bandits in the city will not be in chaos and surrender as soon as possible?

Su Huliu raised her eyebrows slightly, glared at him, and said angrily and amusedly: General Huang, I think you are afraid of being beaten by the Crown Prince's Army. You besieged the city and attacked the reinforcements. If they were asked to come and attack inside and outside, our army would immediately be in a disadvantageous position. Instead, they would have to defend the camp and wait for reinforcements!

Su Hu, what do you mean?

When Huang Zhong heard Su Hu's mocking words, he couldn't sit still and stood up and said: I, Huang Zhong, are you a greedy person who is afraid of death?But after this day, more than 5,000 soldiers of our Celestial Empire died. If we continue to fight like this, it will be no more rewarding!

Stop arguing!

General Liu stood up and said: Emperor, according to the view of the last general, although there are many princely troops in the city, most of them are newly recruited refugees. Without the battle formation, they are already panicked as soon as they attack the city. As long as they increase their efforts to attack the city, the enemy will inevitably reveal flaws. According to the last general's opinion, it is better to surround three missing one and release a road for the bandits in the city to escape. They will definitely have no intention of fighting and will soon escape from the city. At that time, we will intercept the road and kill, and we will definitely win.

When Long Yi heard this, he was happy. He didn't expect General Liu to be so strategic. He just heard the dispute between Su Hu and Huang Zhong. He even planned to lead the soldiers to attack the city tomorrow. With his incomparable martial arts, he would definitely tear a hole in the city wall, and even knock it down. However, he didn't expect General Liu to be more strategic. He could better reflect the wisdom of a real commander than he had just thought. He couldn't help but nod in his heart. General Liu's proposal was very good. In my opinion, he would attack the city according to this method tomorrow!

After hearing the emperor's affirmation of General Liu's strategy, Su Hu immediately bravely asked for the battle and said loudly: Please ask the emperor to let the last general attack the north gate. The last general will definitely capture Qinzhou City to share the worries of the emperor!

At this time, Huang Zhong was not willing to fall behind and said: Emperor, the last general is willing to lead his troops to attack the South Gate!

allow.

Long Yi said happily.

General Liu continued to offer advice at this time: I report to the emperor, since the army of the soldiers in the city is unstable, we might as well shoot documents to persuade the city to surrender at night. It is said that only the evil ones will be punished, and if the followers are willing to surrender, they can be forgiven. At that time, the bandits will have no desire to fight in order to survive, and our army will be more likely to capture the city.

Long Yi nodded to General Liu and smiled and said: This plan is very good. Tomorrow, Su Hu led 10,000 soldiers to attack the north gate, Huang Zhong led 20,000 soldiers to attack the south gate, Zhu Jun led 20,000 soldiers to attack the east gate, leaving the west gate for the bandit army in the city. At that time, the three gates attacked together, and only the West Gate and the Crown Prince's Army escaped. General Liu, you and I led 50,000 troops to ambush in the five miles of forest outside the west gate. When the Crown Prince's Army escaped, you will attack with force. The bandit army will definitely be a frightened bird, and our army will win!

emperor……

General Liu immediately stepped forward and persuaded: Just ambush the prince's army and hand it over to the last general. You must not take the risk of expedition in person.

Nonsense!

Long Yi said: Do you think my emperor was here to play in person?General Liu, do you have anything to worry about your plan?

no!

General Liu said anxiously: The last general is just worried about your safety, Your Majesty!

If any of you can defeat me, I will not go to the battlefield!

Long Yi said, taking out a sword, slashing his palm.

With a slam..., I didn't expect that the sword would be chopped to the ground at both ends. The soldiers were stunned when they looked at it, and they never thought that the current emperor was so powerful in martial arts.

Long live my emperor!

When the soldiers saw the Dragon Wing's magical skill, they couldn't help but shout.

On the top of the city, the battle was fierce. Wang Sen, the marshal of the Crown Army's Southern Expedition, occupied the city. Listening to the casualties reports from all over the place, his face was red and gritted his teeth and thought hard. Wang Sen also knew that although the Celestial Army left a way to survive, he did not dare to go there even if he lost Qinzhou, even if he escaped, he would be dead.

The casualties reported from the South Gate and North Gate made Wang Sen very shocked, especially the North Gate. It is said that Su Hu was a powerful general, who was naked and personally participated in the siege. Seeing that the main general was so brave, his soldiers naturally followed desperately. The battle on the city was full of enthusiasm, and countless casualties. The guards of the North Gate kept sending reports of help, begging hard, saying that if there were no reinforcements, they would be afraid that they would not be able to defend.

The situation at the South Gate was not much better. The famous general Huang Zhong personally led the army to attack. His command was in order and the soldiers were willing to obey the orders. The guards of the Crown Army at the South Gate were also exhausted to deal with the waves of pain, and the casualties were not much less than those of the North Gate.

In comparison, the East Gate was surprisingly calm. According to the rumor, the Celestial Army at the East Gate was just shaking flags and shouting, bluffing, but not really sieging the city. But the more this happens, the more terrifying it makes people feel. The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building. That's what it is said!
