Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 485

The deeper the autumn, the cooler the sky.

This morning, there was another heavy fog in Mengzhou City.

Cheng Yaojingang got up, and Qin Tian ran over.

"Lu Guogong, gather troops and horses, take advantage of the thick fog, and attack Mengzhou City."

Hearing that he went to attack so early, Cheng Yaojin was stunned for a moment: "Why are you using the fog again this time?"

"I've seen it before. The fog lasted for a long time. With the fog as a cover, we can easily cross the moat, which can save us a lot of things."

Different situations should be treated differently. After Qin Tian finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin didn't hesitate, and immediately ordered people to assemble, and then went straight to Mengzhou City.

The fog is so thick that it can only be seen clearly within a distance of three or four meters.

The Tang army came from a distance, and the rebels on the tower couldn't see them, but they could hear some voices.

"No, go and report to the general, the Tang army is attacking the city."

A rebel shouted loudly, and soon, sharp arrows shot from the tower, but they couldn't see where the people below were, so the arrows were shooting blindly, and there was no point at all.

Although some Tang Jun's screams could be heard, they were not as many as usual.

Li Yiyu quickly led his troops to the top of the city tower, but the fog was so thick that he couldn't see how many Tang troops were there, and where they were attacking now.

"Cum for me, cum hard..."

Although it is not accurate, if there are too many sharp arrows, it can still stop Tang Jun's attack.

With one order, the sharp arrows of the rebels became more and more dense.

Sharp arrows shot down one after another, and Tang Jun screamed one after another.

But at this moment, one of the rebels lowered his head and was shocked for a moment, and then he shouted loudly: "General, something is wrong, the Tang army is attacking."

Under the city tower, Tang Jun was building a ladder, and group after group of Tang Jun attacked.

Li Yiyu didn't expect Tang Jun to attack so quickly, and he was taken aback, but then he quickly ordered: "Great stone, roll the log, prepare to resist Tang Jun, and absolutely don't let them attack."

The strength of the Tang army is very strong, three times that of their soldiers and horses. If the Tang army is allowed to attack, then they basically have no chance of winning.

The rebels took orders, and for a while, boulders and rolling logs rolled down from the city tower. Because they were close, although they were blurred, the rebels could still see some shadows, so these tools for defending the city can be said to have been used. Its a big role.

The Tang army attacked the city bravely, but it was not an easy task for them to attack the defenses that the rebels had prepared for a long time.

Group after group of Tang Jun's Tang Jun was repelled, time passed slowly, and the fog gradually dispersed.

However, the Tang army had the advantage of having a large number of people, and when they crossed the moat, the casualties were very small, so under the continuous siege of the Tang army, some Tang troops still slowly attacked.

After Qin Tian and Cheng Yaojin saw this behind them, their hearts suddenly moved.

As long as one Tang army attacks, there will be a second and a third. As long as they gain this time slowly, they will soon be able to capture Mengzhou City.

As long as Mengzhou City can be captured, the rebellion that broke out due to the flood will basically be put down. If they do some basic things, they will almost be able to return to the dynasty.

Cheng Yaojin was very excited. Here, the siege drums were beating loudly, which made the soldiers feel more proud.

Victory is at hand.
-
The two sides are coming and going to attack and defend, and the rebels are already a little bit unable to support it.

Li Yiyu hacked and killed a Tang Jun who was attacking, and then asked, "Is there no news about Mr. Lu?"

"General, yes, we just got the news that Mr. Lu is almost in Mengzhou City."

"Have you borrowed soldiers, horses and food?"

"Have!"

Hearing this, Li Yiyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kill me..."

The morale of the rebels was stronger again.

Time passed quickly, the sun came out, and the fog finally cleared.

Under the city of Mengzhou, many corpses were piled up, including those from the Tang army and some from the rebel army. Qin Tian and Cheng Yaojin led the remaining soldiers and horses, and stopped outside the moat.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin's face was full of excitement, Tang Jun attacked some people again, and soon, they would be able to control Mengzhou City.

A siege is like a gap in a river, even if you can mend it, as long as there is a gap, it will break open sooner or later, and when it breaks open again, you won't be able to repair it anymore.

The more Tang Jun attacked, the bigger the gap would be.

Victory seemed to belong to Tang Jun.

But just when Cheng Yaojin and Qin Tian felt that they were about to win soon, there was a sudden sound of fighting and shouting in Mengzhou City.

The sound of shouts resounded through the sky, and immediately after that, groups of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared on the tower of Mengzhou City. These soldiers and horses were obviously much stronger than those ordinary refugee rebels. The Tang army who attacked had not yet stood firm. The heels were killed by them.

This scene appeared suddenly, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Tian were stunned for a moment, they couldn't believe it.

It is obvious that the victory is about to be won, so how could there be a sudden change?

"What's going on? Could it be that there are other rebels in Mengzhou City?" Cheng Yaojin frowned, and couldn't believe it was true. At this time, Qin Tian was also very shocked, but immediately after, he realized that there was something wrong. wonderful.

If the rebels in the city were not [-], but [-], then their [-] troops would not be able to attack Mengzhou City at all. If they continued to attack, it would only increase casualties, and eventually even the foundation would be destroyed.

"Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

Qin Tian shouted loudly, Cheng Yaojin's expression was dignified, obviously a little unwilling, but seeing the soldiers who attacked the city being killed one after another, he also knew that they would not be able to attack this Mengzhou City.

The sound of the drums beating to withdraw troops was ringing outside the city of Mengzhou. The soldiers who attacked the city did not hesitate at all. They were very ambitious and knew that they were about to attack, but the sudden increase of rebels put them under great pressure.

If they continue to attack, they will only be killed.

So, retreat if you can.

Tang Jun retreated, and immediately returned to the camp without staying outside Mengzhou City. At this time, the sun had warmed up, and the smell of blood spread faster, stimulating everyone's sense of smell, which made people feel uncomfortable. Nausea.

Under the city tower, corpses were piled up like a mountain. Li Yiyu looked at the retreating Tang Jun, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Lu came back in time. If you don't come back, Mengzhou City will be captured by the Tang army." Li Yiyu said, Lu Sanqian smiled bitterly, and said: "General, although I came back, I didn't expect that Luo Xiaobai's five thousand troops will be wiped out."

The air suddenly condensed, and Li Yiyu sighed softly. If it wasn't for his arrogance, Tang Jun would be able to easily attack them with [-] troops.
