On the battlefield west of Songhe City, this scorching siege battle continued, under the city wall, a large number of corpses continued to pile up, and the battle on the wall was even more fierce, and the dark red blood almost dyed the entire wall with a new color.

In the distance, Li Kuo's hand on the hilt of the sword has become iron blue because of too much force, this siege battle has been fought so far, the number of corpses piled up under the city wall has reached a shocking number, however, Jiang Wei's side has not moved for a long time, he has basically determined in his heart that Jiang Wei has an accident, which can't help but make Li Kuo's pressure even heavier.

Zhou Dongnan's order was to capture Songhe City in one go before sunset, but now it is in a situation, first Jiang Wei had an accident, and he failed to attack the east wall of Songhe City according to the plan, and then the general of the west city wall is really tenacious, occupying the wall, and he is fighting with him until now......

On the one hand, His Majesty's order, on the other hand, the situation in front of him, this terrible situation made Li Kuo feel a dilemma, who knew that at this moment, the closed gate of Songhe City in the distance was slowly rising.

This was obviously much beyond Li Kuo's expectations, the soldiers who were near the gate of Songhe City at that time saw the city gate open, and thought that the wall of Songhe City had been occupied by their people, and subconsciously wanted to rush inside, but unexpectedly, what was waiting for them was dozens of sharp spears! The group of soldiers who rushed to the front didn't have time to see anything clearly, and they were stabbed to death on the spot by the dozens of spears that suddenly stabbed out!

At the same time, a sound of uniform footsteps came from behind the city gate, and the sound of the steps was heavy and powerful, constantly knocking on everyone's heart, bringing a lot of psychological pressure to the enemy troops outside the city gate.

Li Kuo in the distance looked fixedly, only to see that the other party opened the way with spearmen, and a large number of shield and axe soldiers followed, advancing in unison with a rigorous military formation.

"What does the other person want to do? Unexpectedly took the initiative to go out of the city to meet the attack? Li Kuo, who saw this battle, frowned, the battle reached this point, although he was unable to directly capture the wall of Songhe City, but according to the entire battle situation, his strength still occupies a fairly obvious advantage, the opposing general defending the city sent infantry troops out of the city to meet the attack at this time, which will inevitably lead to the decline of the garrison on the wall of Songhe City, isn't he afraid that the city wall will fall?

Of course, from the enemy's point of view, Li Kuo wished that the other party would make a serious mistake, so that he could capture the city wall in one go, so of course, he would also pay close attention to the movements on the other side of the city gate.

Visually inspecting the number of troops advancing at a glance, at least there were five hundred, Li Kuo looked overjoyed, once this force was withdrawn, he didn't believe that the other side could still hold the city wall!

With such a thought, just as Li Kuo was about to let the soldiers rush through the wall again, the picture that continued to meet him in the distance made the joy on his face gradually disappear......

"How is that possible? There are more than 500 troops advancing out?! "The army is still pushing out! The opponent obviously used a slow attack and advanced play, relying on the length advantage of the spearmen, maintaining the spear formation, the opponent's military formation pushed out step by step, forcing them to retreat the soldiers who were blocking near the city wall, and a few breaths of work opened up a living space.

Then, looking at the number of enemy troops completely killed from the city gate, Li Kuo's face completely changed, and he hurriedly raised his head to confirm the situation on the city wall in the distance, but found that the soldiers guarding the city on the other side of the city wall basically did not decrease, "No, this is impossible, this is impossible!" Are you kidding? Where are so many troops on the other side?! ”

The huge pressure on his body made Li Kuo's whole brain directly mess into a mess, the siege battle has been fought so far, and he basically knows how many troops the other party has to defend the city, however, the number of infantry troops pushed out all the way has reached at least 1,000 people!

Holding his forehead with one hand, against that uncertain face, Li Kuo tried to sort out the messy thoughts in his mind, and then, as if thinking of something, his expression changed suddenly, "We are dividing troops, and the other party is also dividing troops?!" ”

Li Kuo's whole heart, who came to this conclusion, twitched fiercely, "Their initial strength was divided into two parts, and the one responsible for garrisoning Songhe City was only one part of it from beginning to end, and the other part was to do other things......"

"Ambush Jiang Wei?!" At this moment, the more Li Kuo thought about it, the more ugly his face became, and his whole heart continued to sink there, "And now, the troops who ambushed Jiang Wei are back, so Jiang Wei is ......?"

Li Kuo didn't dare to continue thinking about it, this was simply a nightmare! At the same time, the Songhe City in front of him also seemed to have turned into an ancient giant beast at this moment, becoming hideous and terrifying!

"Quick! Destroy all the wheels of the siege towers and then retreat with the whole army!! "His strength advantage is gone, and if he continues to fight, it is estimated that he will have to pay a heavy price! As a moderate general, Li Kuo has never liked to make any impulsive decisions, according to his ideas, first save the troops and withdraw to Shangyuan City, and then fight a wave of defensive battles to stabilize the position, and wait until after regrouping, and then find an opportunity to counterattack is a good strategy.

At the same time, before retreating, he gave the order to destroy all the wheels of the siege tower, because he knew very well in his heart that with the weight of the siege tower, pushing the siege tower, basically don't think about leaving, which can also be said to be one of the major defects caused by the installation of so many bronze armor plates, after all, this defense is obtained after sacrificing speed.

In this way, the siege tower can't be brought back, but staying here, it will undoubtedly cheapen those enemies in vain, and when the time comes, if the enemy pushes this siege tower to attack his Shangyuan City, it will be a lot of fun, so before leaving, you must destroy all the wheels!

With the sound of the horn of retreat, the siege army of Shangyuan City began to retreat, and Zhao Pan asked his troops to symbolically chase and kill for a distance, and then asked them to retreat.

Because of this one, the infantry unit that Luo Ji transferred back to support him had already fought two battles in a row, and he couldn't even catch his breath in the middle, and the soldier's physical strength had to be taken into account.

At the same time, the other party was not defeated by them and fled, but an organized retreat, in other words, the other party still has the strength to fight, and if they catch up, there is basically no great hope of hitting the opposite side hard, it will only add casualties, it is really unnecessary.

On the side of Songhe City, as soon as Li Kuo's siege army withdrew, the entire siege battle could be said to have come to an end temporarily, and on the other side, the pursuit battle between Guo Zhen and Jiang Wei was not so easy to end......
