590 Fire Breaks Encirclement

The one called Song Dashan was a general at the command level of the Liu Jiajun. Like Li Wentai, although Song Dashan was not as well-known among the Liu Jiajun as Bai Xi and others, he could still be regarded as a general. Compared to Li Wentai,

The son of an aristocratic family, Song Dashan, who came from a rough background, was able to achieve his current status all because of his swords and spears. Because of this, Song Dashan was also highly valued by Zhao Guang. This time he planned to ambush the Song Army's vanguard. Zhao Guang

Guang also specially appointed Song Dashan as the commander of the ambush army, which shows Zhao Guang's trust in Song Dashan.

After hearing the other party's inquiry, Song Dashan turned his eyes away from the top of Longquan City and frowned at the young general. The identity of this general was not simple. He was the one who died in the Liu Jiajun battle to save Liu Tong.

Wang Yuanhua's son Wang Ziping. Although Wang Ziping was young, his skills were no less than his father's. Liu Tong praised him as the future general of Liu Jiajun. In addition, his father Wang Yuanhua died in battle to save Liu Tong. Liu Tong

Tong's attention to Wang Ziping is not much less than that of the Liu clan. From the news, it seems that after the Battle of Longquan, Liu Tong intends to accept Wang Ziping as his adopted son and give his grandson Liu. This means that Wang Ziping will soon

It will be a success.

This time Zhao Guang sent Wang Ziping to Song Dashan's side, and his intention was very obvious. If he just accepted Wang Ziping as Liu Tong's adopted son, it would be difficult to convince the public. So Zhao Guang sent Wang Ziping here.

So that he could be gilded in this battle to ambush the Song Army's vanguard.

There is nothing wrong with Zhao Guanghui's thinking. Song Dashan will naturally not refuse anything that can please Liu Tong. In the eyes of all of them, ambushing the Song Army this time should be a sure thing. But Song Dashan did not expect that

Such a change would occur. How could a good ambush turn into a brutal siege? Thinking of this, Song Dashan couldn't help but secretly curse Li Wentai, who was responsible for garrisoning Longquan City. He usually shouted loudly.

, on the battlefield, it was so useless.

Complaints are complaints, but this battle must continue to be fought. Song Dashan pondered for a moment and said: "Now we only have to build a ladder quickly and break Longquan City as soon as possible." Song Dashan also knew that in this way,

The ambush battle that was originally easy to win would turn into a head-to-head battle, and the Liu family army would definitely suffer heavy losses. But there was nothing that could be done about it. We couldn't just watch Longquan fall into the hands of the enemy.

Wang Ziping didn't think much about it, and shouted in a deep voice: "Yes! I will do it now." After saying that, Wang Ziping turned around and left without saying any nonsense.

Looking at Wang Ziping's retreating figure, Song Dashan couldn't help but sigh. Although the former Wang Ziping was not outgoing and easy to talk to, he was definitely not the indifferent character he is now. Ever since the news of Wang Yuanhua's death in Liu Jiajun's territory spread.

After arriving, Wang Ziping has always looked like this. Even when Liu Tong later announced that he would adopt him as his adopted son, Wang Ziping's face did not improve much. Song Dashan also sympathized with Wang Ziping's experience, but

Troubled times are like this. Wang Yuan transformed into a warrior and returned to the battlefield with horses and corpses. He had long been mentally prepared. I hope Wang Ziping can get out of this shadow as soon as possible.

After withdrawing his thoughts from Wang Ziping, Song Dashan turned his head and looked at the top of Longquan City. Looking at the Song Army who had set up a defense line on the top of the city, his brows could not help but frown a little. Zhao

In Song Dashan's opinion, Guang's previous plan could be said to be perfect. Song Dashan had just implemented Zhao Guang's plan and had done nothing wrong. However, such a change happened, which made Song Dashan feel a sense of ominousness.

I have a premonition that this operation to ambush the Song army will not succeed.

The Liu Jiajun brought by Song Dashan this time totaled more than 18,000 people. They were all secretly drawn from the Nan'an Army's defenses in various places by Zhao Guang in order to hide the Song Army's spies. These 18,000 people,

It can be said that this is the maximum amount that Zhao Guang can mobilize. However, the vanguard army of the Song Army

There are nearly 5,000 people. It stands to reason that even if it enters a siege battle, Song Dashan's 18,000 people should be able to win when they attack Longquan City, which is guarded by 5,000 people. However, Song Dashan suddenly had such an idea.

,When the time comes, will there be a sudden change like today? [

Thinking of this, Song Dashan himself couldn't help but smile bitterly. If this is really the case, it means that God really wants to destroy the Liu family army. Thinking like this, Song Dashan shook his head and forcibly threw those thoughts behind him.

, began to concentrate on arranging tactics and preparing to attack Longquan City.

By the next day, the Liu Jiajun outside the city had prepared siege equipment and began to attack Longquan City. What made Ji Qianqian and Hua Zhonglong heave a sigh of relief was that the Liu Jiajun did not seem to choose to besiege Longquan City.

Instead, he specializes in the west gate of Longquan City. Seeing this scene, Ji Qianqian, who had just arrived at the city, suddenly laughed. Seeing Ji Qianqian smiled, Hua Zhonglong on the side also had a confused face and was busy.

Asked: "Master Ji, why are you laughing?"

Ji Qianqian pointed at the Liu Jiajun outside the city who was rushing towards the city wall and said with a smile: "Yesterday the Liu Jiajun laid out such an ambush plan. I guess that this plan must have been set up by Zhao Guang. If Zhao Guang is here, we will

We are only half sure of holding Longquan City this time.

However, the enemy army did not take advantage of its strength and besieged Longquan on all sides. Instead, they focused on attacking the west gate. Zhao Guang would never make such a mediocre move. Obviously Zhao Guang is not here. In this way, I have

We are 90% certain that we can defend Longquan."

Ji Qianqian's words made Hua Zhonglong confused. He didn't understand what Ji Qianqian meant, but he also knew that Ji Qianqian was sure to defend Longquan. Hua Zhonglong immediately nodded vigorously and felt relieved.

Most of them laughed and said: "Ji

Sir, since you said so, I can let go and fight. You retreat to the city first, and leave the fighting and killing to me." After that, Hua Zhonglong raised his single sword,

Take a step forward, preparing to defend the city with the soldiers.

Ji Qianqian smiled dumbly, but did not retreat from the city as Hua Zhonglong said. Instead, she smiled and said to Hua Zhonglong: "General Hua, don't be anxious. Although we are defending the city, there are many ways. Let's look at me first.

We prepared the strategy to defend the city last night, come up." As she said that, Ji Qianqian waved her hand behind her and shouted.

Soon there was a shout of cheers, and a group of people were seen holding a large piece of stuff and running quickly to the top of the city. When Hua Zhonglong saw it, it was none other than Wen Tong, the officer who had made great achievements in breaking the city yesterday.

.But now Wentong is no longer just a small

He was an officer. Because he was the first to break through the city gate, Hua Zhonglong also promoted him to a captain in the army. When Hua Zhonglong saw Wen Tong, he also looked relieved. No wonder Wen Tong was not seen early this morning. It turned out that

He was called to do something by Ji Qianqian.

Even though Wen Tong was so seriously injured yesterday, after being bandaged by the doctors in the city yesterday and recuperating for a night, he was still alive and well again. When they got to the top of the city, Wen Tong gave a military salute to Hua Zhonglong and Ji Qianqian.

He shouted loudly: "I've seen General Hua, Mr. Ji."

Ji Qianqian smiled and waved to Wentong and asked: "How is it? Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"

Wentong immediately shouted to Ji Qianqian: "The villain is ready. Please check it, Master Ji." After saying that, Wentong turned his body to one side and let out the pile of things thrown by the soldiers behind him on the ground. Zhonglong took a closer look and saw that it turned out to be a large pile of wood, and there was quite a lot of it. Looking back, the dry firewood was piled all the way to the bottom of the city, completely filling up the open space at the gate of the city.

Now Hua Zhonglong couldn't understand Ji Qianqian's intention even more. Why did he get so much wood for nothing? Even if it was used to hit people, it should be used to move rocks. All of these wood are dry firewood. , so light that it won’t hurt anyone at all. At this time, Wentong also said to Ji Qianqian: "Master Ji, all the firewood in the city is already here. I follow the master's instructions and use money. What was obtained in exchange was not taken by force." These dry firewood were not worth much in the first place, and although they were large in quantity, they did not cost much.

Ji Qianqian nodded, took a step forward, grabbed a piece of dry firewood with her hand, and squeezed it hard. The dry firewood became brittle and was broken by Ji Qianqian. In response, Ji Qianqian Qian was very satisfied, nodded and said to Wentong: "Okay. Move all these dry firewood to the parapet wall and wait for my order." Ji Qianqian pointed to the parapet wall on the other side of the city, and at the same time motioned to those standing on the parapet wall. The soldiers beside the female wall all got out of the way.

"Huh?" Ji Qianqian's behavior made Hua Zhonglong more and more confused. However, Hua Zhonglong hesitated for a while and decided to listen to Ji Qianqian's opinion. He waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to act according to Ji Qianqian's words. As for Wentong, he ordered the soldiers following him to carry dry firewood and rush to the female wall. After a while, the dry firewood was piled high beside the female wall. At this time, The Liu Jiajun outside the city had also rushed to the bottom of the city wall. The archers began to shoot arrows at the top of the city to suppress them. The ladders that had been made were also set up on the city wall one after another. The infantry began to climb up the ladders.

"Lord Ji." Now Hua Zhonglong was anxious. Although he was not afraid of death, he did not want to lose the battle inexplicably. At present, all the defenders near the female wall had been mobilized, and only Gao Gao was left. How can Gao Ganchai resist those Liu Jiajun?

Ji Qianqian made a comforting gesture to Hua Zhonglong, nodded to Wentong with a smile, and said, "Wentong, do it."

After receiving Ji Qianqian's order, Wen Tong also waved to his subordinates on the left and right at the same time. When they turned around, one of them actually took the dry firewood piled there with great difficulty from the female wall, and immediately moved the top of the city close to the wall. Half of the dry firewood fell under the city wall. Hua Zhonglong hurriedly ran to the female wall and looked down. As expected, the dry firewood did not have much effect at all after being dropped. A very small number of enemy soldiers were dragged down by the firewood, but most of the Liu Jiajun soldiers continued to climb up against the firewood, not taking the firewood seriously at all.

"This?" Although Hua Zhonglong had expected this result from the beginning, because Ji Qianqian came up with this plan, Hua Zhonglong subconsciously chose to trust Ji Qianqian, but he did not expect such a result. Hua Zhonglong subconsciously chose to trust Ji Qianqian. Zhonglong looked at Ji Qianqian in astonishment, but he didn't understand how a smart person like Ji Qianqian could do such a stupid thing?[

Ji Qianqian didn't tell the difference, she just smiled faintly and didn't make any move. Wen Tong, who was next to her, took out a set of bows and arrows from somewhere, wrapped the arrow heads with a cloth with kerosene and lit them on fire.

, actually fired directly towards the city wall. Not only him, but Wen Tong's subordinates also imitated Wen Tong's example, shooting rockets one after another, and landed directly under the city wall.

The number of those rockets was not large, only more than a hundred. For the Liu Jiajun outside the city, they were simply negligible. But when Hua Zhonglong turned his head and looked outside the city, he couldn't help but froze. Because Wentong and the others

The rockets fired were not aimed at the Liu Jiajun who were climbing on the ladder, but directly hit the dry firewood that they had thrown down before.

Although the number of those rockets was small, when they landed on these dry firewood that even sparks could ignite, a raging fire immediately ignited. Once the fire started, it was out of control. It surrounded the entire West City Gate.

Under the city wall, the fire spread, and the black and green smoke immediately filled the sky, completely isolating the Liu Jiajun under the city wall from the city wall. Those Liu Congxi soldiers who had no time to escape were immediately surrounded by flames

, screamed because of the burning, but their whole bodies were covered with flames. The comrades around them did not dare to approach them at all. They could only let them roll on the ground and were burned alive in the end.

Not only that, the flames also began to slowly climb up the ladders, which was a disaster for those Liu Jiajun soldiers who had already climbed up the ladders. There was a raging fire below, and if they jumped from the ladders, they would only die.

.And when they raised their heads, they saw that it was originally empty, but now it was covered with sharp blades. As long as they went up there, they would definitely not be able to escape death.

Just with such a hesitation, the flames had already climbed to the ladder at their feet. This burning, they instinctively let go of their hands, and in the end they could only fall down the city one after another and be buried by the fire. A few Liu Jiajun soldiers

They simply gritted their teeth and rushed upwards, but in the end they could not escape the fate of death. They were killed by the defenders on the top of the city, and their bodies were also thrown down.

"Hahahaha!" On the top of the city, Hua Zhonglong couldn't help laughing. He turned to Ji Qianqian and shouted: "Master Ji, your method really works. Hahahaha! Burn!

Damn these bastards." Before, he was still worried about whether Ji Qianqian's commotion would lead to Longquan City being breached, but now it seems that there is no need to worry at all. Hua Zhonglong couldn't even help himself and picked up a few of them.

Dry firewood was thrown under the city to help the fire.

Seeing Hua Zhonglong's excited look, Ji Qianqian also laughed, squinting her eyes and looking at the bewildered Liu Jiajun outside the city. Although she didn't know who the Liu Jiajun generals were outside the city, looking at the Liu Jiajun's formation

Being so angry at him that he was thrown into chaos showed that the other party was definitely no match for him.

Anyway, Ji Qianqian never thought about defeating this enemy who was several times larger than her own. His goal was to drag these troops to Longquan City. Although it was not known where Liu Tong transferred these nearly 20,000 troops.

people, but the total number of soldiers and horses of the Nan'an Army is only that few people. Liu Tong has mobilized nearly 20,000 people here, and the defenses in other places will definitely be weakened. At that time, just waiting for His Majesty's army to arrive, the Nan'an Army's

Other towns can't stop the Lord's offensive at all. As for these Liu Jiajun, even Liu Tong himself will be unable to protect himself. How much trouble can they make?

Having made a plan in her mind, Ji Qianqian smiled and said to Hua Zhonglong: "Okay! General Hua, all the firewood in the city is here, we have to save some. As long as these ladders are burned, then

That's it. Without the ladder, they can't attack the city. They still need to prepare supplies for the ladder, so we can hold Longquan for one more day."

Now Hua Zhonglong admired Ji Qianqian from the bottom of his heart. Hua Zhonglong listened to what Ji Qianqian said, nodded his head desperately, and said to Ji Qianqian: "Master Ji is right. Hahaha! First!

Let these bastards go. Wait until tomorrow and let's burn him again."

"Damn it!" In the big tent of the Liu family's military camp, Song Dashan punched a low table to pieces with an angry look on his face, but he still looked confused and resentful. Looking up, the entire big tent was in chaos.

It was such a mess, there was nothing left for him to vent his anger on.

No wonder Song Dashan was so angry. They used nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack Longquan City, which was stationed by the Song army with less than 5,000 troops. However, there was no result for three days in a row.

Song Dashan originally thought that the enemy had been caught in his ambush and that the battle would be over soon, but he did not expect that it would drag on for so long.

You know, when r went to war, Song Dashan made a big promise to you in front of the generals of the Liu family army. Now Song Dashan has lost all his face.
