Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1029
"Haha, this thunderous chariot crossbow is powerful and powerful, without hindrance, it can be called a military killer! With the help of such a powerful weapon, who can break my city. Even if the number of slaves is multiplied, it is really impossible. How terrifying!"

After several fierce offensive and defensive battles, the outside of Hewu was in a mess, the farmland was severely damaged, the ditches were filled in a mess, and even a few towering arrow towers were knocked down on the ground. It can be seen that the previous battle was fierce.

However, Xiang Jian did not feel sad because of this, but was greatly inspired. He really saw the excellent and powerful performance of the weapons used by Master Wang in city defense.

At the beginning of the siege, those Hu people acted like wolves and tigers, and caused heavy losses to Xiang Jian's trilogy soldiers who were defending outside, but when they advanced to the city, they suddenly showed their hypocrisy.

First of all, it is naturally because of Hewu's strong defense, those Huzhong did not carry decent siege equipment at all, and many of them were shot and killed in formation under the city wall of Wubi.In particular, the thunderbolt crossbow displayed its mighty power. Several arrows were fired at the same time, directly plowing a few bloody trenches in the enemy's army formation. Bully within a few dozen steps of the dock wall!
Based on Xiang Jian's own power alone, even with a solid city defense and a capable team, it is difficult to play such a beautiful defensive battle.This battle can even be said to be a display of Wang Shiqiang's weapons. Under the counterattack of so many murderous weapons, no matter how capable the soldiers are, they have no power to parry at all!

Previously, Xiang Jian felt distressed about the equipment that cost a lot of savings in exchange for these equipment, but after seeing the disparity in strength and amazing record of the two sides due to different equipment, he also feels more value for money for these investments, as well as for his own choice. correctness.

"The envoy is indeed a clever plan, and it is expected that things will not happen. Earlier, most of the scouts were chased and killed, but they were able to come to this place quietly. It can be seen that there must be treacherous people in the village to cover them up! These thieves , Disregarding Shijun’s thorough protection earlier, without any thought of loyalty, he still wants to be a slave of Jie slaves today, it’s really not a pity to die!"

In addition to being happy with himself, Xiang Jian also deeply hated those villagers who colluded with the Hulu and came to besiege his Wubi. Although he didn't see it in the battle, it was obvious.Fortunately, he had reached an in-depth consensus with Xie Ai before, and received a lot of free funding for equipment. Otherwise, relying on his own strength alone, it would be really difficult to protect Wubi under such a violent and sudden attack.

This Crane Dock itself has consumed a lot of Xiangjian's savings, and it is the crystallization of his life's hard work.Those country thieves were so crazy that they colluded with Jie Hu to copy his old lair. With such sinister intentions, even if there was no previous agreement with Xie Ai, Xiang Jian had already regarded these country thieves as his life and death enemies, and vowed not to fight against each other!
Xiang Jian is still resentful about how to fight back and kill those local thieves who have colluded with the crowd, but Wang Guang, the head general on the other side, is not relaxed, and said in a deep voice: "Although the first battle has been won, But don’t let up. The Hu people have not had a seizure for a long time, and now they are lured by the local bandits to come south. It is absolutely impossible to stop. The enemy’s situation on this side still needs to be reported to the prince as soon as possible, so that Fangtou can make preparations early.”

After Xiang Jian heard the words, he also nodded frequently. Although he had the upper hand at the moment, the war happened right outside his house after all.

However, he also had his own thoughts on this, and said to Wang Guang: "At present, our army still has all the advantages, and the city is not in danger of being destroyed. The envoy should be notified of the chaos here, but there is no need to exaggerate it too much. Those villages The thief is only revealing a few clues, if the king is activated too early, it is inevitable that he will be timid and hide again, and his evil will not be fully revealed..."

Now that he has made up his mind to board the big ship Xie Ai, he naturally has to show his own value more carefully.If you call Xie Ai for help when you are in trouble, you can't show your ability.At the same time, he also wanted Xie Ai to see more clearly the untrustworthiness of these villagers, so that he could support him more vigorously in clearing the countryside and reorganizing his army in the future.

Wang Guang himself is also the leader of the Hebei army. He was much more powerful than Xiang Jian in Jijun in his early years. I don't agree with being overly optimistic.

You must know that Hewu itself is a city built on flat ground. Although it is located at an angle between rivers, Qishui and its tributaries are not dangerous rivers, and the protection they can provide is very limited.The reason why they were able to win the first battle before was naturally because of their comprehensive preparations and powerful weapons on the one hand, and on the other hand because of the enemy's underestimation of the enemy.

If the opponent wants to launch an attack next, he must make adjustments to Hewu's various advantages, and it is impossible to continue the messy attack before.But it is obvious that the people in Hewu, from Xiang Jian to ordinary soldiers, have a feeling of excitement and underestimation of the enemy, and they don't have a correct understanding of the cruelty of war.

Once targeted and attacked, morale will drop rapidly, and it is difficult for Hewu alone to hold on for too long.

But no matter what kind of opinion Wang Guang has, he is after all a guest army helping the war, and the proposal is fine, but if he makes a decision instead of Xiang Jian, it will be a distraction.

Therefore, when Xiang Jian was arranging messengers, Wang Guang also summoned his own soldiers to give a detailed account of the facts inside and outside the city defense, and told his personal soldiers to report in detail.He doesn't care much about the gains and losses of Hewu and the success or failure of Xiang Jian, but at the moment there are a lot of materials stored in the wall of the dock, he must let the prince know the details and not be fooled by Xiang Jian's blind optimism.

Regarding Wang Guang's cautiousness, Xiang Jian also saw it in his eyes and did not make a statement.They are all hanging out in this place, and he also knows what kind of local tyrant Wang Guang was in his early years. When he was powerful, a bandit leader like Xiang Jian was not worthy of carrying his shoes.However, just because the tribe collapsed and the family business disappeared, it always gave people a somewhat weak feeling, which was even more different than Xiang Jian's strength.

Wang Guang's performance made Xiang Jian even more aware of the importance of family business trilogy to a person, especially since he has deeply tasted the sweetness of it, and it is even more impossible to build the crane he built with all his might. Wu handed over to others, even if there was no previous agreement with Xie Ai, he was determined to fight to the end.

After several attempts and suffered heavy casualties, the Jiehu army withdrew to the opposite side of the river and camped temporarily, and the surrounding area of ​​Hewu fell silent.

This further boosted the arrogance of Xiang Jian and his followers. When they were rogues in the past, they would only be chased and beaten when they encountered a regular army, let alone defeated the established elite army of the Jie Kingdom in a frontal confrontation. .

This battle really made them elated, and even Xiang Jian personally led a cavalry team of hundreds of people to rush out of the dock wall, circled and clamored by the river, making them even more flamboyant.

In the end, under Wang Guang's reminder, Xiang Jiancai remembered to take advantage of the end of the war to send his trilogy out of the city to clean up the battlefield, repair the defenses and collect the arrows that had been consumed before.

At this time, Xiang Jian didn't know that there were more than two thousand Jiehu elites sweeping across the field and approaching Hewu.In addition, the leaders of the villagers were also assembled by General Hu and severely forced them to send troops to help.

After seeing the setback of the Jie soldiers' attack, the leaders of the villagers felt timid early in their hearts, and they felt even more that Xiang Jian's strength had grown to this point.

They are really in a dilemma at the moment. On the one hand, they don't want to get involved too deeply, and they don't want to personally send troops to help the battle. On the other hand, they are more determined to eradicate Xiang Jian. There are advantages to speak of, but if they can't take advantage of the situation and get rid of Xiang Jian this time, and then send troops to retaliate against Xiang Jian, they will not be able to bear it at all.

Coupled with Jiehu's tough attitude and persecution, these people have no choice but to declare themselves to send troops even if they are unwilling. When the Jiehu reinforcements arrived in the afternoon, thousands of troops had already gathered in this area.

Xiang Jian also saw the increase of troops outside the city. Although he had a momentary victory and had an arrogant attitude, he did not lose all reason.Even though they boasted that the enemy would not be afraid of multiplying the number of troops before, the increase in the enemy's troops in such a short period of time is not only multiples, it is simply multiples!
So even though Xiang Jian was quite confident in the defense of the city, he was a little panicked at the moment, realizing that the difficulties in front of him could no longer be dealt with by his own strength.But when he wanted to send an envoy to ask for help, he found that the road was impassable. Jiehu added two thousand fine riders, which was enough to block the surrounding area and make Asuka sad!
Although the enemies outside the city had assembled and hadn't launched an attack yet, seeing the black army crowd on the other side of the river, panic had spread over Wubi City.The so-called hyperactivity cannot last long. Although there are many fierce soldiers in Xiangjian's trilogy, but the habit of rogues includes their own lack of understanding of the cruelty of war, and the guilt has spread beyond control!
At this moment, Xiang Jian realized that Wang Guang's prudence was not aimless, so he didn't care about his own face, so he went to ask Wang Guang personally: "Although I have been loitering for many years, I am really not good at fighting in the army. Right now, the thieves are many times stronger. It makes people throbbing and uneasy, and I asked General Wang to teach me how to deal with it."

Although Wang Guang couldn't see Xiang Jian's habit of rogues, he was trapped in the same city and had no room to hide his secrets. He said in a deep voice: "In any battle, there is absolutely no reason to win. I don't think about winning." , think about failure first. Right now the bandits are spreading, leaving the city will bring disaster. But if the isolated city is trapped by itself, it may not be able to last. Fortunately, it is near the Qishui in Hewu, so that people can drain the water to prepare the way back, so there is no such worry In danger of being trapped, entrust a strong city with strong weapons to hold on, do everything in human affairs, and listen to the destiny."

Xiang Jian didn't dare to make his own claims at the moment, but he also had his own calculations. He said to Wang Guang: "I have been a bandit for half my life, and I have made a living by harming others. I have no good to boast about. Only when I am close to half a hundred can I be lucky Xie Shijun Ya entrusts you with great things. If the plan fails, you will be exhausted and your grand ambitions will fail. Then everyone will know that you are wrong and useless. It is not advisable to abolish someone. Even if you lose your life, it will be exhausting.

In the realm of life and death, don't make false statements.A certain person wandered through this world, and spent half his life trying to survive.After years of hard work, Jun Chuiai was able to settle down on the foundation. I would rather die than treacherous evil take away my family and family business!Even if there is a way out, how dare I make it safe?I implore the general to plan a way out for me. If this fort is really undefended, I will fight to the death. Please stay behind and live my son's life.I can also do nothing to repay my loyalty to Xie Shijun! "

Wang Guang originally had contempt for Xiang Jian, and he didn't agree with it in his heart, but after hearing these words, he couldn't help but look at Xiang Jian with admiration, and after a long silence, he raised his hands and clapped his hands as an oath.

After making this agreement, the seriousness on Xiang Jian's face was wiped away, and the madness appeared on his face again, he raised his arms and shouted: "Put on armor for me, and kill for a while!"

He has been a bandit for half his life, and naturally he will not change his nature. The reason why he made such a decision is also because of long-term consideration and balance.With the bondage of Hewu, he is no longer the rogue who can wander around in the past, especially thanks to Aituo for giving him such a big deal, if he really blindly seeks to survive and makes all the goods in the city change hands, even if Xie Ai wants to To shirk his guilt, he must be put to death!

Moreover, those people outside the city also looked at him as if they must kill them all, and he had no possibility of surrendering to the enemy.Both the front and the back are dead, so why bother to make any panic gestures.

At least fighting to the death here, he can show Xie Aiquan a sense of people, and he has also seen the strength of Wang Shi's city defense, and the mighty city of Fangtou is not comparable to his mere dock wall.

It is very difficult for Jiehu to drive Master Wang back to Henan, and Xie Ai will definitely stay here for a long time in the future. No matter whether he intends to use him or not, he will serve him loyally. Xie Ai must not treat him coldly, otherwise it will be Cut yourself off from the crowd!
