The camp of the thief army in the east of the city suddenly became agitated, and the firelight rushed to the sky and then rushed towards the city wall, which made Wu Sangui and Wang Tizhong, who were watching from the city, couldn't help frowning, and the two looked at each other with extremely solemn faces, the thief army was about to attack the city!

What made the hearts of the two even heavier than the siege of the thief army was that it seemed that the reinforcements had been defeated.

From the time when the thief army sent troops to the northeast before noon, Wu Sangui and Wang Tizhong deduced that the reinforcements were coming, and they were overjoyed, and when they saw that the thieves had sent troops one after another, totaling nearly 10,000, they knew that they had not received any benefits, and guessed that the reinforcements were definitely not Ma Ke's 800 horsemen, and it was possible that the vanguard of the little eunuch had arrived.

Until dark, there was no siege of the thief army, Wu Sangui and Wang Ti Center exhaled, taking it for granted that Bai Wang's soldiers and horses were in a glue battle with the officers and soldiers at this time, and they had no time to fight with themselves, as long as they stayed up until tomorrow, the main force in the rear of the officers and soldiers was almost all here, and if Bai Wang's men and horses did not withdraw, then they would all stay here.

When the two of them were about to go down the city, they suddenly saw a change in the camp of the thief army, and they were about to attack the city, so ...... It seems that the reinforcements have failed!

How could it be defeated? Wu Sangui thought about it, could it be that the source was only the eight hundred horses of the horse department?

At this time, the thief army recalled the soldiers and horses of various departments to begin to besiege the city, and tens of thousands of people attacked the city even if there was no artillery suppression, especially Tongling, a small city with a radius of only three or four miles, which was quite stressful.

But fortunately, Wu Sangui has enough time to prepare for the city defense since he entered the city last night, mobilized the people in the city to demolish the houses and send those stones and logs to the city, and even boiled up the golden soup to prepare to entertain the thief army, in addition to the heavy reward and raised 600 young people to go to the city, everything is ready to wait for the arrival of the storm.

"The thieves have slaughtered the heart of the city, and the city will be left without chickens and dogs, if you don't try your best, your family will be ruined, don't think about surrendering, they won't let anyone go!" Wu Sangui in the city is mobilizing, the reason why he said it so directly and truly is because he knows that the people of Tongling City have more or less complaints and luck in their hearts, they feel that the life of the thief army is no different from the previous occupation of the city, why are you officers and soldiers going to fight as soon as they come...... The common people don't want to fight, because after all, the common people are bitter in the war, so they have an anti-war mentality, and Wu Sangui is worried that these young people will even defect if they don't work hard when the war starts.

So the ugly words are said first, let them die!

Bai Wang recalled Wang Yien's department to be aggressive and ready to break the city, he knew that tonight was his last chance, if he couldn't break the city tonight, once the army of officers and soldiers arrived tomorrow, he would have no chance to attack the city, unless he defeated it first, but how could it be so simple, if he still had confidence in the past, then in the past two days, the two generals under his command against hundreds of thousands of people did not take the slightest advantage, if their army came......

It's just that how did he know that the hundreds of thousands of people Wang Yien and Yuan Sanzhong fought against were the most elite troops under Chang Yu, and they were all fucking straw bags in the back, and they would break if they poked.

It's a pity that Bai Wang doesn't know, even if he knows now, he has to hurry up and attack the city first, from last night to now, he has tinkered with four or five stone throwers, nearly 100 ladders and two siege vehicles, these guys are enough to deal with this small Tongling City.

The manpower has been in place, more than a thousand cannon fodder carrying the siege ladder at the forefront, behind the archers of the thief army and thousands of siege troops, followed by the stone thrower, Bai Wang looked at the sparse fire at the head of the city with a hideous face, gritted his teeth and said: "After the city is broken, there will be no chickens and dogs!" As he spoke, he raised his right hand and was about to give the order to attack, when he suddenly saw a bright fire in the northeast direction, and the faint sound of horses' hooves was urgent, he couldn't help frowning, and sent someone to find out what was going on.

Soon Tanma came in a hurry: "Marshal, General Yuan is defeated!" ”

! Bai Wang was shocked and angry, according to Wang Yien, the officers and soldiers suffered heavy losses in the first battle just now, at most more than a thousand people, and after two consecutive bloody battles, the soldiers were already exhausted, and at most they engaged in sneak attacks, and they were unable to fight head-on again, but Yuan Sanzhong led 2,000 troops and could still be defeated by him?

Is this fucking officers and soldiers too strong, or Yuan Sanzhong is too useless!

Bai Wang was angry, and when he was about to scold, he saw the firelight in the northeast direction scattered and urgent, and there was a dense firelight in the distance...... What's going on? Yuan Sanzhong was not only defeated, but also hunted down?

Something is wrong! Bai Wang finally reacted, where was the heart to attack the city at this time, and hurriedly ordered to prepare for the war and called Wang Yien over there in the south city, hearing that Yuan Sanzhong was defeated, Wang Yien also felt that it should not be, and saw that the fire in the distance was getting bigger and closer and closer, and then a spirit shouted badly!

At this time, Bai Wang also reacted, the fire was definitely not a battle of more than a thousand people, that is...... The main army of officers and soldiers is coming!

This time they finally guessed correctly, but not quite!

It was not the main force of officers and soldiers who came, but the rear troops of Wu Sangui and Ma Ke!

Wu Sangui's Guanning iron cavalry has 5,000, Ma Ke's cavalry has nearly 3,000, in Wuhu to participate in the war because of the want to cross the river war horses to stay on the other side, after the war Wu Sangui and Ma Ke each led hundreds of cavalry to the south, its follow-up soldiers are waiting for Lu Zhenfei to transport the war horse from the opposite bank, and then he crossed the Zhanghe River when he delayed some of the journey, and when Ma Ke's request for help arrived in Changyu, he urgently ordered Wu Sangui's general Shen Jianghu to lead his troops to Tongling to support.

In fact, Shen Jianghu was only half a day slower than Tu Yuan, but when he arrived at the Shun'an River, it was already evening, and he saw that the riverbank had become a battlefield, and the corpses were everywhere in sight, and the surrounding miles were even more invincible.

However, when Tanma ran for twenty miles, it was already dark, but it was just when Ma Ke and the three battalions of Dongchang joined forces to attack the camp of the stone mountain bandit army, and the killing was loud in the night, and Tanma couldn't figure out what the situation was for a while, until the end of the fight was still confused, I didn't know who was fighting with whom, and I didn't know what the situation was around Tongling City, so I had to think about whether the spies of the thief army could be captured to ask about the situation.

It's just that just after the war, Ma Ke and others fled, Wang Yien sent several units of exploration horses to search and reconnoiter within twenty miles, its momentum was too big, and the scouts set up several ambushes but did not succeed but almost died, relying on superb riding skills to escape but did not want to meet a small group of people and horses used by Ma Ke to confuse the enemy, he was overjoyed at first sight, and hurriedly took them to find Ma Ke.

At this time, Ma Ke was leading his troops along the river bank to march towards the Shun'an River in the northeast direction, and when he heard that he and Wu Sangui's troops and horses had arrived, he was immediately overjoyed, and there were five or six thousand more elite cavalry, even if they were killed under Tongling City, it was no problem at all, so he asked people to send an order to Shen Jianghu to immediately cross the water and advance southward.

Shen Jianghu immediately crossed the water after receiving the order, and just crossed the opposite bank to meet with Ma Ke within five miles, and he had to say that the two battles in the middle of the day were enthusiastic, which attracted the admiration of his subordinates, and bluntly said that Ma Ke's majestic style was still the same!

"Have a good rest tonight, tomorrow morning, let's go directly to the city to defeat Bai Wang" Ma Ke is tired but energetic, after going south, he has fought three battles, and his confidence has gradually recovered, and the fierce general who was powerful back then is back!

However, the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and when the soldiers were repairing, an alarm suddenly sounded in the distance, and thousands of thieves were moving towards this side, and Ma Ke raised his eyebrows when he heard this...... Yes, they are going to attack the city at night! ”

I have to say that the veteran is experienced, Ma Ke deduced Bai Wang's intention in a very short period of time, Shen Jianghu was concerned about Wu Sangui's safety, and after listening to it, he asked for help, Ma Ke responded, but he and the third battalion of Dongchang were too tired to participate in the battle, but they thought that five or six thousand fine cavalry was enough to break the enemy, so he commanded Shen Jianghu to send troops to meet the battle.
