Chapter 459: The Sorrowful He Zongxian (1st Update)
"This Tang Dynasty barbarian is really insidious and cunning, I didn't expect that they would secretly dig so many traps with the help of the cover of piling up dirt mountains." Zhou Qianya, who returned to the city, said angrily.
Fortunately, General Zhou reacted in time and retreated to the city. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. Xiao Yang said to Zhou Qianya.
"What is good now, it is difficult to just watch them pile up the dirt and mountains. If the earth and mountains are successfully accumulated, then the city will also be in jeopardy. Zhou Qianya said helplessly to Xiao Yang.
"I don't know if General Zhou has ever found out that yesterday's He Zongxian, although he was also wearing a white robe. But I feel that He Zongxian today is not alone. Xiao Yang said to Zhou Qianya.
"When you say that, I also remember that He Zongxian, who was wearing a white robe yesterday, stood far away. It gives people a feeling of greed for life and fear of death. ”
"And He Zongxian, who is wearing a white robe today, must be the first in every battle, and his martial arts are very strong. Especially his flying knife, which is even more miraculous. Zhou Qianya nodded and said.
It is precisely because Zhou Qianya knows that Xue Rengui's flying knife is powerful. That's why he didn't show his flaws when Xue Rengui was exposed. chased Xue Rengui to the death.
"In that case, we just need to see the timing. As long as He Zongxian appeared yesterday, our army could send troops out of the city to fight him. ”
"If He Zongxian is here today, then we can only close the city gate and hold the city." Xiao Yang said after thinking about it.
……
Xue Rengui was busy for a whole day, and the earth mountain was also piled up to a certain height. But Yu can come in handy, it's still far from it.
After Xue Rengui returned to the camp, he went to the big tent of the vanguard army, saluted Zhang Shigui first, and then said: "Pioneer general, the accumulation of this dirt mountain cannot be stopped. It is also hoped that the general can send people to build it day and night. ”
"I didn't expect you to have such a mind, as long as our army piled up this mountain of dirt. It will be effortless to take this city of profit. Zhang Shigui said with a laugh.
"Xue Li, you can take someone back to rest. The next thing to do is to leave it to us. He Zongxian opened his mouth and said to Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui didn't know that this and He Zongxian wanted to compete again. However, Xue Rengui has long been accustomed to it.
What's more, Xue Rengui didn't care at all who would fall on the credit for this cross-sea expedition to the east. Because of the presence of King Wei, no matter who falls on him, he will eventually return to himself.
Looking at Xue Rengui's withdrawn figure, Zhang Shigui opened his mouth and said to He Zongxian: "What kind of moth are you going to do, is it possible that you think that you are stronger than Xue Rengui." ”
"Why should my father-in-law be angry, the son-in-law knows that he is not that Xue Rengui's opponent. But in the past two days, Marshal Wei Chi and the imperial general arrived with a large army. ”
"If they see Xue Rengui at that time, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for my father-in-law. That's why the son-in-law will prepare to pile up the mountain of soil instead of Xue Rengui. He Zongxian said.
Hearing He Zongxian's words, Zhang Shigui couldn't help but be surprised. Fortunately, He Zongxian reminded himself, otherwise he might really get into trouble.
"It's still a virtuous son-in-law who is far-sighted, since this is the case, you will go in place of Xue Rengui tomorrow. Now that Xue Rengui has laid the foundation, there must be no danger. Zhang Shigui said after thinking about it.
That night, Zhang Shigui sent another army, led by his four sons. Mountains of dirt were piled up overnight.
This made Xiao Yang's plan to use the night to destroy Tushan frustrated. He didn't expect that Tang Jun would be around the clock.
It's not that he didn't think about sending troops at night to deal a fatal blow to the Tang army. But in the end, Xiao Yang gave up on the idea.
Because once the Tang army has an ambush, the people who go out will never think about coming back. After all, the view at night is not very wide.
Even if someone ambushes them, it is difficult to be discovered by themselves. So Xiao Yang could only reluctantly give up this idea.
So the four Zhang Zhilong brothers, this night, went very smoothly. The height of the earth mountain has also increased to a certain extent.
Early the next morning, He Zongxian wore a helmet and a robe, rode his white horse, and carried Fang Tian's halberd. The four Zhang Zhilong brothers were replaced.
I saw He Zongxian, standing proudly, commanding the soldiers in a matter-of-fact manner. However, he was still discovered by Zhou Qianya in the city.
"General Xiao, if I'm not mistaken. Today's white-robed He Zongxian is definitely not the same person as yesterday's. ”
"General Zhou is right, not only this white-robed He Zongxian, not yesterday's He Zongxian. Even this Tang Army is not yesterday's Tang Army. Xiao Yang nodded and said.
"In that case, let me take someone out and meet this fake He Zongxian." After Zhou Qianya finished speaking, he turned around and went down the city wall.
At the same time, Xiao Yang commanded the catapult and began a frantic attack, the Tang army in the mountains of earth. Boulders and fire oil poured down the city without stopping.
All of a sudden, the troops led by He Zongxian were beaten so that they couldn't even lift their heads. This scared He Zongxian a lot.
I couldn't help but murmur in my heart: "It's really strange, why do I encounter so much trouble every time I lead my troops to battle." ”
However, with the protection of this giant wooden car, it did not cause substantial damage to the Tang Army. This couldn't help but make He Zongxian feel a lot more at ease.
But at this moment, the gate of Jili City suddenly opened. Zhou Tianya came out with a cavalry.
This time, the 3,000 men and horses brought by Zhou Tianya were the cavalry of Qingyishui. Therefore, the speed was very amazing, and it didn't take long to kill in front of Tang Jun.
He Zongxian hurriedly commanded the troops to start the battle. But all the infantry He Zongxian brought, in front of the cavalry, it was really not enough for people to see.
Just a chisel pierced, and He Zongxian was killed. And He Zongxian himself didn't dare to fight Zhou Qianya.
I saw him hiding in the rear of the army, constantly directing the soldiers to rush upward. It is hoped that the crowd tactics can be used to leave these 3,000 cavalry behind.
At the same time, Zhang Shigui also received a report. He knew about his son-in-law's two moves, and hurriedly mobilized men and horses to prepare for the battle.
Zhou Qianya's real purpose was not to fight with the Tang Army. It's about destroying the giant wooden carts. As long as these giant protective wooden carts are destroyed, his mission will be completed.
Although the top of the wooden cart is protected by sand, this makes them no longer afraid of fire. But there is no such protection at the bottom, so it naturally became the target of Zhou Qianya's attack.
The three thousand cavalry brought out by Zhou Tianya, each of them carried several oil jars on their horses. As they approached the giant wooden cart, they threw the jar of oil in their hands.
After completing the mission, the 3,000 cavalry quickly withdrew from the battlefield again. At the next moment when Zhou Tianya withdrew from the battlefield, several fireballs flew in the sky again.
