Outside Chang'an City is quiet, but the atmosphere inside the city is solemn and the situation is tense.

Ma Tengtun was outside, and the soldiers in the city had already learned the news.

At this time, the soldiers in charge of the defense of Chang'an City were all in good spirits, staring closely at the movement outside the city, as long as there were soldiers outside the city, the Xiliang soldiers on the city tower would beat the war drums and gather the Xiliang soldiers in the city to resist the Ma Teng army. As a result, the footsteps on the castle tower continued all night, non-stop, and very nervous.

The soldiers all had tense faces and solemn expressions.

No one knows what will happen in the next moment, and no one is sure whether they will survive after the start of the war? Everything is unknown, and the soldiers are worried and very nervous.

Time passed, and the stars disappeared.

The moon also gradually faded, and a touch of fish belly white appeared on the horizon.

"Step! Trample! Trample! ……”

As soon as it was dawn, a group of soldiers from inside the city gate quickly ran to the bottom of the tower.

This group of soldiers was fierce and uniform, and there were 600 of them. At the front of the soldiers, there were two other generals, one of whom was burly and a little obscene, and the other was a strong man, and his demeanor was quite majestic and intimidating. These two people are Yang Feng and Xu Huang.

After Yang Feng was persuaded by Xu Huang, he prepared how to open the city gate and control the power of the city gate in his hands.

In the end, Xu Huang gave Yang Feng an idea and let Yang Feng go to the palace, and then Yang Feng hurriedly returned to the camp, and when the sky was just dark, Yang Feng and Xu Huang took six hundred soldiers to the west gate of Chang'an City. This gate is the place where Ma Teng's army is going to attack.

If Yang Feng wants to welcome Ma Teng into the city, he must take the west tower.

In this way, Liu Xie's task can be completed.

The army stopped, and Yang Feng ordered: "Gongming, you lead the soldiers to wait under the city tower, and I will go to the city tower to negotiate with the guards stationed in the city tower" After speaking, Yang Feng took more than ten personal soldiers to the city tower.

Xu Huang stayed under the city tower and led the troops in formation.

He was wearing armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and in his hand he held a nine-foot-long giant axe, the blade of which was sharp, revealing a cold light, which made people's hearts chill slightly.

"Step! Trample! ”

Yang Feng walked briskly and quickly ran to the city tower.

He had to hurry, because once Ma Teng led a large army to attack the city, he would not have enough time to prepare, and the difficulty of opening the city gates would increase dramatically. Therefore, when Ma Teng went up to the castle tower, he almost trotted quickly. Ascending to the city tower, Yang Feng quickly calmed down again, although he had a trace of gangsterism, but he had been in a high position for a long time, but he also had a majesty, not angry and self-authoritative.

As soon as Yang Feng walked up to the city tower, a captain who led the patrol came over, hugged his fists and said, "General Yang, you led the troops to the city tower, what is the important matter?" ”

Yang Feng looked serious and shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree to immediately find the general who is responsible for the defense of the city tower." ”

"No!"

The lieutenant replied, and turned to ask the guards of the tower.

The little emperor Liu Xie did not have much weight in the eyes of Fan Chou and Zhang Ji, and his face was not big, because Liu Xie had no military power. However, Liu Xie still had a lot of weight in the eyes of Xiliang Xiaobing, Yang Feng played the name of the little emperor, and the captain immediately went to report. After a while, a burly and fat middle-aged man walked over, clasped his fists and said, "General Yang, what is Your Majesty's will?" ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man yawned and had a tired look on his face.

After staying up all night, he was already fighting with his eyelids, very tired, and was about to let the other team of soldiers change guards.

This person, named Xiong Shi, was a general sent by Fan Chou to garrison the western city tower.

There are four directions in the east, west, south and north of Chang'an City, and there are three gates in each direction. The city tower on the east side is Xuanping Gate, Qingming Gate, Bacheng Gate; The city tower on the west side is Yongmen, Zhicheng Gate, and Zhangcheng Gate; The city towers on the north side are the Los Angeles Gate, the Kitchen City Gate, and the Horizontal Gate; The city towers on the south side are the Covered Ang Gate, the Anmen Gate, and the Xi'an Gate.

The towers in the four directions, the east and south towers were defended by soldiers led by Zhang Ji's generals, and the north and west towers were garrisoned by soldiers led by Fan Chou's generals.

Yang Feng looked serious and said loudly: "Your Majesty said that Ma Tengtun is outside, and both the people and officials in the city should try their best to hold Chang'an, and ordered the general to come to replace the defense of the city tower." However, Ben will only be responsible for the defense during the day, and will still be garrisoned by your soldiers at night, which is why Your Majesty has given you enough time to rest and recuperate to defend against Ma Teng. ”

After Xiong Shi heard this, his face showed a touch of joy.

He didn't have any vigilance in his heart, because he heard Fan Chou say that the little emperor was very concerned about the safety of Chang'an City, and he had summoned Fan Chou and Zhang Ji several times in a row to discuss the defense of Chang'an.

The little emperor is so concerned, of course he wants to keep Chang'an.

With such an idea, Yang Feng was sent by the little emperor to change his guard, which must be reliable.

Xiong Shi thought about it, but he still acted according to the rules, and asked: "General Yang, you led the troops to take over the defense, but there is an order from His Majesty, if not, please go back." ”

In fact, when there was usually no army attacking the city, Xiong Shi would definitely be reluctant to encounter Yang Feng, who was only responsible for garrisoning during the day and handing over the garrison to him at night. However, Ma Teng's siege was imminent, and it was very dangerous to be responsible for the defense during the day, and Yang Feng came to replace him to change the defense, which was in Xiong Shi's mind.

Yang Feng had already prepared, and after hearing Xiong Shi's order, he immediately took out a bright yellow cloth from his cuffs. This square cloth is also embroidered with various patterns, on which Liu Xie's order is written, and the seal is stamped.

Seeing this, Xiong Shi put his mind at ease and did not have any worries in his heart.

Xiong Shi said: "General Yang, you call the soldiers up and prepare to change the guard." ”

Yang Feng was overjoyed in his heart, turned around and ordered to the soldiers beside him: "Let Xu Huang take five hundred soldiers to the city tower to change the defense, and leave another hundred soldiers to guard the city gate." Once the army of Ma Teng attacked the city, the city gate was a fortress and could not be lost. You must let Xu Huang choose elite soldiers to guard the city gate, go ahead! ”

After saying that, Yang Feng sent the soldiers away.

Xiong Shi stood aside, listening to Yang Feng's arrangement, and was very happy in his heart.

Yang Feng is so conscientious, but it is foolproof. In this way, he can go back and sleep well, and he doesn't have to let his soldiers come to guard the city gates.

After a while, Xu Huang took the soldiers to the city tower and arranged for the soldiers to be stationed on the city tower.

When Xiong Shi saw that the soldiers were replaced, he greeted him, and took his soldiers down the city tower and returned to the camp to rest.

At this point, Yang Feng relied on the edict of the little emperor to easily take control of the west tower.

Yang Feng looked back at Xu Huang and said in a low voice: "Gongming, you are really the right-hand man of the general, and with a small plan, you can easily take down the defense of the city tower." Okay, it's worthy of Xu Gongming, after Ma Teng invades Chang'an, he will get glory and wealth, and your share will definitely be indispensable. ”

Xu Huang was not happy, and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, General!" ”

The two stood on the city tower, staring at the direction in which Ma Teng's army was encamped, waiting quietly.

Time was ticking, and a red sun had risen in the east.

Suddenly, in the distant sky, a dark spot appeared, and the spot moved very fast, becoming clearer and clearer, and finally, Ma Teng could already be seen leading the army into view.

Xiliang Ma Teng, the leader of the troops is here.
