784. The plan to capture the city was broken

Liang Bing, who was questioned by Du Chong by the collar, also looked at the voice under the city as if he had seen a ghost at this time, wiped the cigarette ash from the corner of his eyes, and wanted to see clearly, but found that he could only vaguely see a bunch of figures under the city, Liang Bing was about to cry, and said: "General Du, it's true, the general was ambushed in the falling forest, and was shot to death by the prince of Tang with random arrows, and the brothers are also dead."

"You said they were all dead, so how did you survive?" Du Chong asked again.

"I—I ran to the side of the mountain forest and survived." At this moment, in order not to be suspected of falsely reporting military intelligence or spies, Liang Bing had to tell the embarrassing fact that he was a deserter.

Hearing Liang Bing say this and a pure Shuofang accent, Du Chong did not suspect that he lied about the military situation or was a spy sent by the Tang Army to disturb the morale of the army.

At this time, Xue Wanche under the city couldn't stay stunned, and urged the soldiers behind him to shout, and the soldiers behind him were also so anxious that cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, this is what the general taught me, what should I say next, and blurted out in a hurry: "General Du, open the city gate quickly."

Du Chong at the head of the city was shocked when he heard this, and then looked up to the sky and laughed, "Shameless Tang dog, he actually wanted to deceive me."

After that, he waved his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, the people below are Tang Gou pretending, the general has been killed by Tang Gou, release arrows, shoot Tang Gou." Du Chong roared in a daze.

When Xue Wanche heard this, his face changed, "It's not good, it's been recognized, and the brothers withdraw." After that, he turned the horse's head and retreated, and when the words fell, the sound of bowstrings sounded at the head of the city, and the arrows were shot down, and Xue Wanche, Xi Junmai and others were busy wielding weapons and slapping arrows.

Listening to the screams of the Shence soldiers behind him from time to time, Xue Wanche and the others were aggrieved, the city gate was not opened, they couldn't get in, and they were shot as a live target under the city within the range of bows and arrows, but fortunately, the sky was dark, even if there was a bright moon, they couldn't see it really, and the Liang soldiers had night blindness, just like opening their eyes and shooting downward, but even so, the dense arrows were shot, and the Shence soldiers were also suffering heavy casualties.

Hearing the sound of bows and arrows, and the screams of the soldiers, Li Pojun was shocked and shouted: "It's not good, my plan has been broken." Then he hurriedly raised his halberd and shouted: "The crane battalion covers General Xue's retreat."

Liang Baiwu led the crane battalion to step forward, the bow used by the crane battalion is a stone bow, and there is a hard crossbow, which is longer than the range of the seven bucket bows used by the Liang soldiers, but it is not good to shoot at the head of the city in the dark, and the upward shooting is also the end of the strong crossbow, and the strength is not good, but fortunately, the Liang soldiers were forced, hiding in the inner side of the city wall, not daring to show their heads, for a while, Xue Wanche and others were also greatly reduced, and they hurriedly evacuated and left the range of the Liang soldiers.

"Hey, general, the last general is incompetent, and the strategy has been discovered." Xue Wanche rushed forward and pulled out the arrow in his arm, baring his teeth in pain, fortunately, because of the golden armor, the arrow was not deep, and the arrow barb did not shoot in, but Matong Xi Junmai and a group of Liang soldiers were not so lucky, they did not have gold armor, and dressed up Liang Bing was also wearing Liang Bing's armor, and the quality was also excellent, after all, it was worn by Li Zhengbao's elite foot soldiers, but he was shot by random arrows within the range of the city, and he was also hit by several arrows, and the injury was not small.

"I was aggrieved, hissed, and couldn't fight back after being shot by an arrow." Xi Junmai lay on his horse, was hit by four or five arrows in his back, and said angrily.

Li Pojun's face was gloomy as water, and he waved his hand and said straightly: "The strategy has been broken, and it is up to me to do it, and the injured will go for treatment quickly."

Seeing that the four hundred good fighting soldiers killed dozens of people, and the rest of them were all hit by arrows, and there was even a thick man lying on the ground screaming, like a hedgehog on his back, pierced more than ten arrows, Li Pojun was holding back the fire in his heart, how could he be recognized.

Immediately, he also stepped forward, "I am Li Pojun, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the enemy general in the city, come out to answer." Li Pojun shouted, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and there is no shame in losing, he has to understand his loss.

"Haha, Li Xiaothief, I want to deceive me with a clumsy plan, I will definitely avenge the general, you wash your neck and wait." Du Chong looked at Li Pojun under the light of the fire under the city, and said with gritted teeth of hatred.

Although he Du Chong is not very capable, but since he was saved by Li Zhengbao on the grassland, his life was handed over to Li Zhengbao, he followed Li Zhengbao to be a horse thief and be happy, and he took refuge in Liang Shi and became a general, he Du Chong has nothing else, he Du Chong only has a loyalty, a heart loyal to Li Zhengbao.

Hearing Du Chong's arrogant insults, Li Pojun frowned, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, Su Dingfang and others stepped forward and scolded angrily: "What a cowardly thief, Hugh is rampant."

"Can you tell me how you saw through my plan?" Li Pojun threw away his anger, didn't care about this person, and asked directly.

Seeing this situation, Li Pojun still asked, and the people on both sides were surprised, worthy of being the prince of a great country, this demeanor is really extraordinary.

Du Chong also snorted coldly when he heard this, "The general has his own surviving people to report the news, and the general treats me like a brother, and never calls me by my name, but will not call me a general, Li Xiaothief, such a clumsy plan, why take it out and be embarrassed." Du Chong only thinks about killing Li Pojun to take revenge now, so he spares no effort to belittle Li Pojun.

Li Pojun's face sank like water, but he didn't want to fall into the forest and still have a fish that slipped through the net, but think about it, an ambush at night, and dense forests on both sides, five thousand people and horses will definitely have someone to escape, but Li Pojun was negligent, which led to the failure of the current strategy.

Immediately, he also said bluntly: "I have been taught, and I will leave your whole corpse in the future."

Seeing Li Pojun's demeanor, the two sides couldn't help but be impressed, and were about to turn their horses and leave, when they suddenly saw that under the firelight of the city, behind Du Chong, a cowering figure, looking at the helmet style, it should be the person who Li Zhengbao's five thousand remnants of elite soldiers came back to report the news, and immediately drew out a thundering bow, opened the bow and arrows, and shouted, "Come and don't be rude."

The voice fell, the thunderous bow sounded, and the arrow went off the string, Du Chong's face was shocked, and he didn't have time to speak to squat down to dodge, but the arrow was not aimed at him, it shot straight at the messenger deserter, and with a scream, the messenger deserter fell to the ground with his neck covered, and he didn't even flutter a few times before he was lifeless.

The Liang army at the head of the city was shocked, and hurriedly bowed down to hide with the help of the city wall, but Li Pojun had already beaten his horse and left, and a group of divine soldiers also saw it clearly, and shouted: "The general's magic arrow." However, Li Pojun did not respond, but just returned to the camp with the army.

"General Ben was negligent, this plan is full of loopholes, in vain I thought I could make up my mind in a war, it was really ridiculous." After returning to the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Pojun took off his armor, which was "self-examination".

After hearing this, the generals were also busy persuading, "The general does not need to be like this, as soon as he comes to Shuo, it is convenient to annihilate 5,000 enemy soldiers and kill the pseudo-Liang general Li Zhengbao, how ......."

"Na Du Chong can't catch the dry bones in the mound, and within a few days, he can take the Dingxiang ......."

"How could you have thought that there were still deserters under Li Zhengbao's command......."
