Chapter 75 This slap in the face came too fast

Yuzhou, Suiyang City.

"What? The Qin army withdrew the siege?" Xie Xuan's eyes widened, and then he climbed to the wall of Suiyang and took a closer look. Sure enough, there was no trace of the Qin army within his sight.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, a scout came to report that the Qin army had withdrawn and disappeared. Xie Xuan was very shocked.

Half a month ago, the Qin army raided Suiyang and defeated the unsuspecting Jin army outside Suiyang City. Then tens of thousands of Qin troops immediately surrounded Suiyang City. The Qin army attacked the city day and night regardless of casualties. The Jin army

The losses were very serious. Even so, Xie Xuan still held on for more than half a month, fought several battles with the Qin army, and finally formed a confrontation with the Qin army.

However, the Qin army's offensive has become more and more fierce recently. After the scouts inquired, they found out that the Qin army's reinforcements had arrived.

Xie Xuan was thinking about how to break the situation, but he didn't expect that the situation changed so quickly. He didn't expect it!

The Qin army actually withdrew. How could the Qin army withdraw?

I am the majestic commander-in-chief of the Beifu soldiers, but I haven’t let my subordinates see my power yet? How can I withdraw my troops?

Oops, it’s really not strong enough?

Xie Xuan turned around and was about to go down the steps to return to Suiyang City. As soon as he stepped on the stone steps, soldiers from the Beifu army came from behind to report: "General, it's bad, the Qin army is here again!"

"General!" Beifu soldiers shouted. What happened?

When the soldiers took a closer look, it turned out that Xie Xuan had stepped on the stone steps and fell down from the city!

"You losers, hurry up and save the general!" Seeing that the general was thrown to pieces, the pro-soldiers only realized it later.

Outside Suiyang City, Zhang Chong, the governor of Yanzhou, returned with his army. Perhaps he heard Xie Xuan's call, so Zhang Chong left and returned.

"Get ready to fight!" Xie Xuan touched the swollen back of his head and quickly ordered to set up defenses.

After Zhang Chong's grain and grass hoarded in Jiyin County were burned by "his own people", he was furious and led his troops back to help. However, by the time he arrived at Jiyin County, the "friendly troops" who had burned his grain and grass had long since disappeared.

No trace left.

There was no way, the person who plotted against him was not found, so Zhang Chong could only put all the blame on Xie Xuan, so he turned around and came to Suiyang again...

"Brothers, take Suiyang City, let's have meat tonight!" Zhang Chonglang said, and all the soldiers howled after hearing this.

The sound of two catapult cannons shook the sky, and the sound of drums shook the ground. The Yanzhou soldiers of the Qin army formed a circle and were beginning to charge. The dead men in the front team were rushing towards Suiyang City. They were quickly attacked by Suiyang City.

The crossbowmen of the Beifu soldiers were blocked by shooting.

However, I saw thousands of Yanzhou soldiers, as dense as stars, but they were all lined up. After the first wave of siege was frustrated, they immediately reorganized their formation and launched another attack.

Outside Suiyang City, there are deep trenches and high fortresses, densely packed deer villages, and soldiers from the Beifu guard the walls.

The horns on both sides are blown frequently, and the drums are beating wildly.

Suddenly smoke and dust rose sharply, debris flew on the ground, and roaring sounds were endless.

I saw only a piece of land that had not been turned over by people, piles of charred corpses and white bones, and the stench of blood was overwhelming!

Sun Wu, who joined the army, helped the embarrassed commander Xie Xuan to the top of Suiyang City. Looking at the menacing Yanzhou soldiers, Xie Xuan stood firm and ordered without hesitation: "The so-called wealth is obtained in danger, tell brothers, we

There are as many soldiers and horses as the Qin soldiers. If they can lose the city, they will be shameless when they return to Jiangdong!"

Although Sun Wuzhong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he met Xie Xuan's eyes and replied at the top of his voice: "Don't worry, General, our Beifu soldiers have not encountered any fierce battles in the past few years since the Battle of Huainan? Mountains of swords and seas of fire.

We have all come here, Suiyang City will not be lost!"

"Yes! General Qin Gou has left and returned. The previous efforts to attack the city were in vain. Now he wants to do it again. He is really wishful thinking!"

"How can Beifu's strong soldiers be afraid of Qin's dogs?"

"We have two shoulders supporting one head, and we don't have an egg missing from our crotch. Beifu soldiers swear to fight Qin Dog to the death!"

Seeing the high morale of the generals, Xie Xuan nodded happily: "That's good, tell He Qian to guard the north gate. As long as the east gate and north gate are not lost, Suiyang City will be impregnable."

"No!" Sun Wuzhong held his hands and left.

The soldiers from the north of Suiyang City and the soldiers from Yanzhou were inseparable from each other in the second battle.

Xu Zongwen's 10,000 light cavalry, who had just left Dingtao, changed their marching route and headed north in Jishui toward Puyang.

Xu Zongwen led his army to attack for a day and a night, killing dozens of horses, and finally arrived at Lihu City at dawn the next day, which was less than 200 miles away from Puyang.

"Open the city gate. I am Han Ji, the prefect of Chengyang. I have been sent to Chang'an to quell the rebellion under the orders of His Majesty King Qin. I am passing by here and ask your county magistrate to quickly prepare wine and meat and come out to greet you as soon as possible!" Xu Zongwen's face did not turn red and his heart did not beat.

He arrived in front of Lihu Fortress, held his whip and shouted.

The defenders on the fortress heard the commotion and hurriedly called for the defender Ge Yi. Not long after, the defender of Lihu Fortress appeared, but Xu Zongwen, who was waiting under the city, did not see the Qin army open the city gate.

"What's going on?" Pei Qing asked Zhuge Kan. The latter rode forward and came to Xu Zongwen.

"General, it seems that General Lihu doesn't like this. How about we withdraw our troops?" Zhuge Kan thought for a while and advised.

Xu Zongwen hesitated, what happened?

The King of Qin's edict worked well in Dingtao, but why did the generals refuse to acknowledge it when they arrived in Lihu?

"You think I don't know who you are? I got a bargain in Qingzhou, and now you dare to go deep into the hinterland of Yanzhou. I have already taken the letter from Linqiu and reported it to Commander Zhang. Just wait and choose a geomantic treasure place in Yanzhou and make your own

Bury him!"

While Xu Zongwen was hesitating, the guard at Lihu Fortress suddenly let go of his voice and spoke harshly to Xu Zongwen who was at the bottom of the city.

At this moment, not only Xu Zongwen was confused, but also Pei Qing and Xi Jian behind him. Lihu was far away from Qingzhou, how could the news of Qingzhou reach him so quickly?

"General, General Lihu is too arrogant, let's take him down!" Zhang Gui pulled out his knife and said fiercely.

Zhuge Kan shook his head, pressed down the hilt of Zhang Gui's sword with his hand, and said: "The Qin soldiers already know our details. If we attack the city aggressively, won't the news spread faster?"

Less than a month after the Jin army recaptured Qingzhou, the Qin army, the Jin army, and the Yan army and the Qin army fought hard in all parts of the Central Plains. Information was blocked everywhere, especially in Jiyin and Puyang counties west of Linqiu, so Xu Zongwen easily

Taking advantage of Jiyin Prefect Feng Gu's delivery of grain, he suddenly launched an attack on Dingtao City, catching the Dingtao defenders off guard.

But how did Lihu Fortress, which was further away, know about the change of ownership in Qingzhou?

Could it be that Zhang Chong, the governor of Yanzhou, had already sent people to inform the counties under his jurisdiction?
