"Huang Shuai." Returning to the main formation, Yin Dian was still unwilling to withdraw his troops. How could he bear it?

Knowing what he was going to say, Huang Zu raised his hand slightly and said with a stern face: "The follow-up troops of the Qin army have arrived in Lichuan. It is not appropriate to attack like this at this time. We should change our strategies and tactics."

Then he said: "Retract your troops first, and then make other plans after repairing them."

"But Huang Shuai, what will happen to Jingyang if we are delayed here?" Yin Dian was a little worried.

"Jingyang can't be saved!" Huang Zudao said: "Now that Su Yi is here, there are heavy Qin troops in Lichuan, and they cannot be defeated in a short time. How can Jingyang persist for so long? What we can do now is not to stop after Lichuan.

Let the Qin army take another step forward and find a way to defeat Su Yi!"

"Walk!"

Under his command, the sound of gold ringing sounded, and the overwhelming spiritual army began to slowly retreat from the plain outside the city.

Huang Zu would not do anything he knew he couldn't do. Since there was no hope of rescuing Jingyang, he had to give up decisively and defend the position after Lichuan. This was the best way to break out of the passive situation.

On the top of the city, watching the Ling army retreat, Peng Shuang couldn't help but said: "Commander Su, now we can take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack."

"Chasing you!" Su Yi said unceremoniously: "Who is Huang Zu? The Ling Army retreated in an orderly manner. How can we take advantage of the victory?"

Peng Shuang curled his lips and said deliberately: "That sounds nice, I think you are afraid of Huang Zu, right?"

This guy knows how to challenge the generals. Su Yi was happy: "No matter whether it's a formation battle or a fortified battle, I have nothing to fear from him. But now, I hope that Huang Zu will attack Lichuan desperately. But now it seems that he may have to

Switch from offense to defense."

After saying that, he added: "Send the order to Ning to fight. The long siege of Jingyang has no strategic significance anymore. Let him capture it as soon as possible."

What he said is right. Jingyang is a county town. No matter what, there are some reserves of supplies in it. If we have to be surrounded, I don't know how long it will take. The sooner it is pacified, the sooner the rear will be stable, and the more

This can be used as a place for advance and retreat.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happens in Lichuan and Jingyang is not captured yet, it will cause a big problem.

That afternoon, after receiving Su Yi's military order, Ning Zhan immediately made certain adjustments to the four formations that captured Jingyang.

During the discussion, he said: "Now, we are besieging Jingyang on all sides and making an attack. The defenders in the city will inevitably defend from four sides. Based on this, we can feign attack on three sides: east, west and south.

Keep invading, with the North Gate as the main force, and fight it for three days and three nights!"

As he spoke, he also thrust the small black flag representing the Qin army on the head of Jingyang City.

This offensive strategy is simple, but it is the best way to capture Jingyang.

As Ning Zhan said, Fang Zan had no choice. Faced with attacks from all directions, he could only divide the existing nine thousand troops into four areas for defense.

This greatly dispersed the defense force. As long as one area was attacked fiercely, it would be defeated sooner or later.

At this moment, in Jingyang City, the county guard looked anxious and said worriedly: "Huang Shuai was intercepted from leaving Sichuan, and Jingyang was besieged by the Qin army again. What should we do..."

Fang Zan said: "There is no way now, we can only wait one day at a time, hoping that Huang Shuai can break through Lichuan as soon as possible."

Then he asked again: "Man Pangda, are the food and grass supplies in the city still enough?"

"This is no problem. In terms of food and grass, we can still support it." The county guard replied, and then said worriedly: "General Fang, no matter what, you must defend Jingyang."

This place is completely isolated and helpless. Fang Zan has no confidence at all, but he still says: "Don't worry, Panda, even if we fight to the death of one soldier, the general will not let Jingyang lose."

"That's good, that's good..."

Not long after, the siege of Jingyang began.

The Qin army began to attack the city from four directions: east, west, north and south.

Of course, there are three feint attacks on the east, west, and south sides, intended to contain the effective forces in the city and cooperate with the main breakthrough of the north gate.

But regardless of whether it was a feint attack or not, Fang Zan only had so many troops, and he didn't dare and didn't have enough time to move back and forth. He could only deploy more than 2,000 men at each position.

Under this situation, the fighting at the North Gate was the most intense. Ning Zhan pressed more than 20,000 troops here, divided them into several groups, and carried out successive attacks.

The Qin army's arrow array was unparalleled in the world, with strong bows and powerful crossbows. The Ling army at the top of the north gate city could not raise their heads at all. Many people had been killed by random arrows before the actual battle.

However, with more than 2,000 people guarding a city defense, they would definitely be able to hold on on the first day, but the level of brutality has already put the North Gate in danger.

Moreover, the Qin army launched a fierce offensive, followed by another, without stopping at all, and did not give you any chance to breathe, repair, and change defenses. The purpose is also obvious, which is to defeat the Ling Army at the north gate.

Lighting.

In such a situation, the North Gate defender quickly became desperate, but after Fang Zan received the news, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and said: "Other lines of defense are under attack, and there are no more troops to support the North Gate! Tell General Chen to let him

Even if he dies, he will guard the north gate for me!"

Although the military order was iron-blooded, the North Gate guard also wanted to hold on to it to the death, but the continuous decline of his troops made it impossible for him to make a comeback even though he was extremely capable.

There are more than 20,000 Qin troops, and they can defeat more than 2,000 people, which is ten times the enemy. If they can't defeat them, they would rather fight with this eight-strong general than be a soldier.

Not to mention there are so many siege weapons.

It was said that they were prepared to fight for three days and three nights, but in just two days, the North Gate had been declared occupied. More than two thousand spiritual troops were killed and wounded, and the remaining troops were no longer enough to hold on to the defense line.

On the ladders, there were still people climbing up and jumping to join the chaos at the top of the city. The city gate was also blasted open, shouts of death were everywhere, and countless Qin army soldiers held their swords high and swarmed in.

And with the fall of the North Gate, the other three places were quickly shaken. At this time, it no longer made any sense to defend the city.

Fang Zan had no choice but to order to withdraw his troops, trying to use the county government as the last place of resistance, because the Qin army on the north gate would soon come over.

However, as soon as the troops were reduced and all four gates were broken, the Qin army fully attacked the city and began to engage in chaotic fighting in the streets and alleys with the Ling army.

Everywhere in the streets, there were shouts and screams, as well as the sound of weapons clashing. In this situation, the people in the city dared not go out. The doors and windows had already been closed.

The chaotic battle lasted all night, and it was not until the early morning of the next day after the city was broken that the Qin armies from the four sides met at Jingyang County Mansion.

At this moment, the place was surrounded by a large army. Fang Zan's 9,000 troops were reduced to less than 2,000. The entire county governor's mansion was filled with people, all of whom were guarding the gate of the mansion with nervous expressions on their faces.

Not long after, Ning Zhan walked over quickly and did not order an attack. Instead, he shouted loudly outside the door of the mansion:
Chapter completed!
