Chapter 267
Today is different
When Xiao Beiheng, who was leading the siege, learned that the commander of the city was Chen Yuexi, was furious.
"Xiao Zhuo was too ignorant and actually ordered a woman to defend the city," he pulled out half a foot of Yanque, "This is obviously a humiliation of the prince's name as bad as a woman. He ordered the three armies to capture this city today."
The deputy generals all looked embarrassed. They dared not violate the military order, but the Langya Pass is not a city that can be captured in one day. Everyone turned their attention to Song Zhen, who was standing beside Xiao Beiheng.
Song Zhen knew what he wanted and ordered the generals to wait for a while. He said to Xiao Beiheng: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, if you can't control yourself, you will be subjected to Xiao Zhuo's tricks."
Xiao Beiheng threw the sword back into the scabbard: "Is this Xiao Zhuo's plan again?"
He had suffered two losses in the battle before. When Song Zhen said that it was Xiao Zhuo's plan, he forced his anger.
Song Zhen asked, "Why did our army come here? Does the prince still remember?"
Xiao Beiheng immediately reacted and said, "What the military advisor reminded me is that this prince forgot about impulse."
Seeing that Xiao Beiheng understood, Song Zhen waved his fan and asked the deputy generals to retreat, and said to Xiao Beiheng: "Your Highness, our real goal is Xiao Zhuo's food and grass. The siege is just to divert Xiao Zhuo's attention, so that he could not expect our real one. intention."
"But he actually ordered the woman to defend the city, which was too much..."
After comparing the two sides, she could see the difference. As Xiao Zhuo expected, the other party was a feint attack.
Yang Cong said: "Doctor Hua and his son Huaduoduo have arranged a tent specifically for treating the injured in the city square. Don't worry, everything is arranged."
Chen Lan looked back and saw a row of dense black dots suddenly appearing in the blue sky outside, as if countless birds were flying towards it.
Now, Chen Yuexi stood on the city wall, wearing white armor, calm and composed in front of the 40,000 Qi Wangjun, without any fear.
"Arrow rain," Chen Yuexi shouted, "Everyone raises the shield."
The city at Langya Pass is surrounded by mountains and cannot be taken away by stones.
"No, we have few people, and the other soldiers have shields blocking their heads," Chen Yuexi looked at the King of Qi who was rushing over and said calmly, "Don't waste bows and arrows, let everyone prepare stones and turmeric oil. The other party started crawling When you are cloud ladder, smash it with stones and pour tinder oil to burn the cloud ladder."
The iron hook of the first ladder hit the battlement of the city wall and made a loud noise, like two iron fingers hooking the city wall. The defending soldiers avoided the rain of arrows and immediately lifted the stones on the ground, raised their hands down. Smash away.
The other party’s real goal was Xiao Zhuo’s food and grass.
Chen Yuexi was a little surprised. These people would not worship the statue of the gods?
Yang Cong held his knees and panted for a while, straightened his waist and said, "Li Zheng said that he could not let the Crown Princess, a woman, be responsible for defending the city, and called on everyone to transport the things guarding the city."
With the help of the rain of arrows, the first thirty ladders began to advance and headed towards the city wall. Behind each ladder were two hundred soldiers holding shields and swords, as if thirty long straight snakes rushed towards the city wall. Come.
"I...I can't take it down," Chen Lan's face was pale, but she refused to leave, "I want to help my sister."
Chen Yuexi smiled and said, "Tell everyone to pay attention to arrows, don't show your head on the city wall, just carry stones, and the injured are fine."
She was talking, only hearing a shout from afar from the city.
Chen Yuexi's expression changed, she pushed Chen Lan's back and pushed her into the city tower, and then pulled Xia Lan in: "The enemy has begun to attack."
Chen Yuexi leaned over the city tower and looked at both sides. He saw people coming and going on the city wall, and stones smashed like rain, smashing the King of Qi who dared to climb the ladder so much that he cried and called out to his parents. There were one on many ladders. There were no soldiers from the King of Qi Army.
After wielding his sword to kill the bandits, he once looked at Chen Yuexi in the carriage like today.
Chen Lan looked at the cloud ladders in the Qi King's army formation, carried by dozens of people, passed through the gaps in the military formation and lifted them to the front of the formation, and said to Chen Yuexi:
Chen Yuexi climbed to the second floor of the city tower and looked down. The main target of Jian Yu was the defenders on the city wall, and she was not at risk here.
He snorted coldly and turned back into the formation.
"oh?"
Chen Yuexi was actually very scared when she saw Xiao Beiheng riding a horse under the city. But considering that he was the main general, once he showed signs of cowardice, it was not good for the morale of the army, so he gritted his teeth and stood up until Xiao Beiheng turned his horse's head. Leave.
"Your Highness," Song Zhen used a feather fan to press Xiao Beiheng's hand gently, "Xiao Zhuo had just summoned the army, and there was no trustworthy general around him, but he was just a helpless move. Besides, Chen Yuexi used to use the Ice City here. Resisting the attack of the Western Rong army is definitely not an ordinary woman, and the prince cannot be underestimated."
"Sister, the military book says that if the other party attacks the city with a ladder, it can be defended by tinder oil and stones. The two sides of the city are built along the mountains, and the stones are enough..."
Xiao Beiheng nodded and drove his horse to the formation. When he looked at Chen Yuexi on the city wall, Xiao Beiheng understood the meaning of Song Zhen's words.
Feng Zhang looked at Chen Yuexi nervously and said, "Miss Mother, do you want to shoot an arrow?"
He clearly remembered the first time the two met.
Next to her, Xia Lan saw Xiao Beiheng coming out of the battle from afar and had long squatted down and dared not show up. Chen Yuexi knew that she was afraid of Xiao Beiheng, so she didn't force herself and said to Chen Lan: "Sister, you will fight later, you will go down the city wall first. ”
When did this woman become so outstanding?
The soldiers defending on the city wall had already squatted down without waiting for her orders and raised their shields at the same time. Countless arrows fell from the sky, and the wooden pillars and window frames on the city tower made a sound like nails. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of bright feathers were inserted into the air. arrow.
Later, we met several times in the middle. His deepest impression of Chen Yuexi was that he was very good at making trouble, whether it was trying to escape when he was under house arrest, or her inexplicable dance when he held a banquet to entertain Xiao Zhuo.
The soldiers in the Qi King's army began to move slowly and the war was about to begin.
She had witnessed Xiao Zhuo attacking Yongwei County with her own eyes, and she felt that it was very similar to that time.
Chen Yuexi had no choice but to point to the tall city tower directly above the city gate: "Sister, let's go there now. Feng Zhang has already gone up, we are commanding the battle in the city tower."
After guarding for half a day, the Qi King Army did not even have a single person to climb the city wall, leaving hundreds of casualties to retreat. Chen Lan also calmed down and said to Chen Yuexi: "Sister, it's not difficult to defend the city."
The same was true for Xiao Zhuo's army at that time. It seemed to be huge, with bows and arrows flying at the same time, and a ladder rushing up, but in fact the attack was weak and there was no such a momentum of sacrificing life. It was completely different from the attack of the Western Rong army in the Ice City. Similarly, there were crossbows that time to help defend, and the opponent rushed up almost stepping on the road paved with his companion's corpse.
"Miss Mother, the people are all here to help defend the city," Yang Cong ran up the city tower panting, "They are helping to transport stones and tinder oil."
At that time, Chen Yuexi had half of ink stains on her face and her eyes were filled with horror, as if a frightened little animal was shivering in the corner of the carriage, which was in line with all his definition of a woman.
"Sister, the opponent did not attack seriously," Chen Yuexi and Shen Lan explained, "If the opponent fought to the death, he would have attacked the city wall long ago."
"Sister actually saw this?" Chen Lan was very surprised.
Chen Yuexi smiled and was about to answer, when there was a shout of killing coming from the southwest of the city, a cavalry assassinated the attack, rushed out of the Qi King's Army's front and came to the city.
"It's the lord, open the city gate!" Feng Zhang shouted.
