Urban Spirit Sword Fairy

Chapter 1725 I Know

The soldiers of Qi State gritted their teeth and rushed towards the city wall.

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Yan Army kept shooting arrows, or throwing logs that had been prepared long ago, and burning hot oil.

As soon as the hot oil drenched, there were countless screams.

Then a flaming arrow shot down, and immediately, the city wall turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Dalin County City is extremely high, and it is as difficult as climbing the sky to easily attack it.

The battlefield is always so tragic.

Zhao Lingxing, who was in the distance, watched the battle in the distance calmly.

His face was calm, and such a situation at this time was also within his expectations.

It is normal for the city of Dalin County to be towering and difficult to attack. It is very difficult to attack the city wall under normal circumstances.

But Xiao Yuanjing only has 20 soldiers in his hands, while he has 60 soldiers!

On my side, I can let the soldiers take turns to attack the city, but Xiao Yuanjing's side can't.

With the rise and fall, once the soldiers defending the city fell into fatigue, it would not be difficult to capture the city.

Gong Liangce next to him was also observing the battle situation, but he frowned fiercely, and said in a low voice: "General, if it is normal, how long will it take to capture this city?"

"Ten days." Zhao Lingxing said calmly.

"It's too slow." Gong Liangce said in a low voice: "According to the news from Qi Jing, Qin Honglin's army is hard to stop in the country. Qin Honglin may arrive in Qi Jing within fifteen days."

"On our side, even if Dalin County is conquered within ten days, it will still take some time to get to Yanjing."

Zhao Lingxing also knew the situation in the rear. He said: "If Qin Honglin is given a certain amount of time, he can become a famous general of a generation, and use a small number of troops to contain the blocking army of our country."

Zhao Lingxing said calmly: "Deputy Master Gong, tell the miscellaneous troops in the country not to go directly to stop them, but to go directly to Qijing."

"My city wall in Qijing is so towering, how can it not stop the tired master in Qin Honglin's hands?"

Gong Liangce frowned and asked: "Speaking of which, after we arrived in Yanjing, the city wall is still strong..."

"No problem, after defeating Xiao Yuanjing's army, his Yanjing city wall is indeed strong, but how many soldiers can defend the city?"

In any case, the number of people on my side has a big advantage.

It is said that one will be successful and ten thousand bones will be dry, but this is true.

Soon, Zhao Lingxing ordered the 20 soldiers on the front line to withdraw for repairs, and another 20 soldiers stepped forward to fight.

After taking turns like this, the soldiers in Xiao Yuanjing's hands were not given too much rest time.

In the city of Dalin County.

The people in the city were panicking at this moment, and there was already a deafening sound of siege coming from the direction of the city gate.

These voices are like a reminder to the common people.

At this moment, in a tavern.

The guests in the tavern were discussing the war one by one.

"Tell me what to do if the Qi army enters the city. I've heard that once the Qi army enters the city, it may massacre the city." A middle-aged strong man said loudly.

This middle-aged strong man was specially arranged by Xiao Yuanjing.

It is to make some preparations in advance to mobilize the common people to defend the city at that time.

There are many such people in the whole county.

Hearing the words of this middle-aged strong man, these people in the tavern couldn't help but feel a little commotion.

"My wife and children are all here, what should I do?"

"Haha, anyway, I'm dead. I'm drunk today." A rather downcast man laughed: "Even if the city is massacred, there are so many rich people accompanying us."

"If you want me to say, it's really not possible, let's fight with this group of Qi soldiers." The middle-aged strong man said at this time: "They are all big men, with arms and legs. I'm afraid he is a Qi army. In order to protect our Wife and son, I’m going to fight anyway, I heard that Prince Zhen has set up a militia barracks to recruit militiamen and pay three times the military salary.”

Immediately, the people in the tavern started whispering in low voices.

At this time, a young man stood up, and the young man looked at the middle-aged man strangely.

The young man is a spy of the Qi State, but he said with a smile at this moment: "This brother is a bit alarmist. I heard that General Zhao Lingxing manages the army well, and the soldiers below are all polite."

The strong man glared at the young man, and said, "What do you mean? You actually speak for the state of Qi. I think you are a spy of the state of Qi."

"Hey, in broad daylight, brother, you can't talk nonsense." The young man glanced at the strong man, and said: "I heard another news, saying that there are not enough soldiers in the guards of this county. They are trying to send us civilians to the front line to die."

"If you ask me, whether it's Qi or Yan, whoever becomes the emperor has nothing to do with us ordinary people."

Such a situation is not limited to this tavern, but wherever there are many people gathering, there will be two or three people like this at this moment.

One was secretly sent by Xiao Yuanjing, and the other was secretly sent by Qi State.

Inside the Prince's Mansion.

One of his subordinates stood respectfully in front of Xiao Yuanjing, and said in a low voice: "My lord, our plan is not going well. In the county, for some reason, a group of people suddenly appeared against us..."

Later, he will tell the details.

Xiao Yuanjing sat on a wooden chair with a sullen face and nodded slightly: "I see."

He sighed slightly inwardly.

It seems that what he wanted to do was discovered by Qi Guo.

At this moment, he couldn't help standing up and walking back and forth.

With a worried look on his face.

At this point in the battle situation, more conspiracies and tricks are actually useless.

I only have 20 troops in my hands, if there is no other way, I am afraid that I will definitely lose.

Thinking about this, he said, "I'll go out for a while."

After finishing speaking, he walked out of Prince Zhen's Mansion, and rode quickly towards Longyin Temple in the county.

At this time, the incense in Longyin Temple was very prosperous, especially in such a wartime, many people wanted to pray to gods and worship Buddha to keep them safe.

Xiao Yuanjing entered Longyin Temple directly from the back door. He was quite familiar with Longyin Temple. Not long after, he came to a meditation room, and then ordered a young monk to inform Master Yunhai to come over.

It didn't take long.

Master Yunhai, who was wearing cassock, walked into the meditation room with a smile on his face, and sat cross-legged opposite Xiao Yuanjing.

"Master." Xiao Yuanjing clasped his hands together respectfully, saluted, and then said: "Can you contact my master?"

Yun Hai said calmly: "He went to Zhou Country, he should have received the letter you sent asking for help, but he also has important things to do there, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to come back for a while."
