I’m Marquis in Great Tang

Guo Zhaodao: “Captain Governor, if you don’t adopt this strategy, you can only adopt a strategy of hard resistance. We resist for a while and make a decision based on the situation.”

Liu Hongcheng nodded and said: “Mr. Guo, this official also feels that we will resist for a while before speaking. Moreover, we are the courtiers of Great Tang, so we surrendered to Du Qi directly. Du Qi would not believe it. Instead, we resisted for a while. When you can鈥檛 help it, let鈥檚 consider the method of false surrender. Only in this way can Du Qi be truly convinced.”

Guo Zhao nodded and said: “The Governor said very much.”

“Report!”

At this moment, a soldier came to Liu Hongcheng’s side and opened the mouth and said: “Supervisor Liu, the latest report from the sentinel, the army led by Du Qi is far from us The county seat is less than ten miles away and will arrive soon.”

“Explore again!”

Liu Hongcheng gave an order.

His eyes looked at the official road in the distance, trifling Ten Mile Road, which would not take much time for the Xia Country army on the march. Before long, Du Qi’s army will arrive.

Liu Hongcheng waited quietly, a little bit of time passed. When Liu Hongcheng saw the grandiose army appearing on the official road in the distance, he knew that someone was coming. However, Liu Hongcheng and Guo Zhao never stayed on the head of the city, but stood by and commanded.

This is to avoid forced bombardment.

Should he be killed directly by directing a call on the gate tower, that would be too pitiful. After a short time, the Xia Country army lined up. The black army lined up, and the armor was sparkling. Under the golden-bright and dazzling sunlight, the entire army outside the city showed unparalleled aura, and it was incomparable.

Du Qi’s army is approaching the city.

Du Qi straddled his horse, looked towards the gate tower, and shouted: “Where is Liu Hongcheng?”

Liu Hongcheng hid in the crowd and shouted: “Du Qi, if you want to attack, you should attack, why be the youngest daughter posture. I am up and down in Zhangye County and Ganzhou, and I will resist to the death and never surrender.”

He is hiding in the crowd.

The voice came, but Du Qi couldn’t judge Liu Hongcheng’s location.

Du Qi laughed, and Liu Hongcheng’s approach is rather cautious. But in fact, he simply did not intend to bomb Liu Hongcheng with mortars, but Liu Hongcheng hid himself.

Du Qi said solemnly: “Liu Hongcheng, Great Tang’s current situation is already deteriorating. Mud Bodhisattva crossed the river powerless to defend himself. Now you are playing for Great Tang, you can only put up a desperate struggle. Open the city gates and surrender, I will protect your high position and great wealth.”

Liu Hongcheng disdainfully said: “Du Qi, you kill my brother Liu Hongji, and you also protect my high position and great wealth. , What a joke! I tell you, Liu Hongji and your Du Qi are not at odds. Zhangye under the control of Liu Hongji will never surrender. I, Liu Hongcheng, will fight to the end.”

Du Qi frowned.

Liu Hongcheng is really a hard duck!

To say that the city of Zhangye County is not strong, it is not considered to be a solid city. Compared with the real strong city, it is also worse. But even so, if Du Qi had to attack by force, he would definitely lose.

“His Majesty, the last general is pleased to fight.”

At this moment, the left pioneer came out first. He had sharp eyes and said strongly: “The minister is willing to lead the elephant soldiers under his command to fight, attack the gate tower, and seize the county seat.”

Du Qi shook his head and said: “The elephant soldiers participate in the war, although the siege can be useful. On the Tang Army side, there is a Gunpowder. Once the Gunpowder explodes everywhere, it will make a giant elephant go crazy and lose control. When the time comes, let alone an offense, it鈥檚 impossible to stabilize the formation.”

Zuo Xianfeng paused for a while, and then said directly: “The minister is willing to lead the soldiers in the army to attack and prevent the giant elephant from participating in the war.”

Du Qi said: “Is it clear?”

Zuo Xianfeng said: “The minister has figured it out clearly.”

Du Qi looked towards Xue Rengui, instructed: “Allocated two thousand elites to Zuo Xianfeng, and he will personally lead the attack.”

“No need!”

Zuo Xianfeng shook his head and said: “The elephant soldiers under the minister are enough to attack directly. Although the giant elephants cannot participate in the war, they are all elite, and these elephant soldiers can also participate in the war. The warlord led three thousand elephant soldiers to participate in the battle. We will storm the gate tower and go straight up.”

Now it is the battle against Great Tang. Zuo Xianfeng cherishes the opportunity very much. Only by seizing every opportunity can he have the opportunity to go further and make greater achievements.

Du Qi nodded and said: “I will adjust the mortar to respond to you, and then dispatch 10,000 elite soldiers to attack and help you.”

“Thanks His Majesty!”

Left Xianfeng thanked immediately.

For him, artillery bombardment and 10,000 elite countermeasures are enough.

As long as you can get your head work, you will earn this time.

Du Qi directly instructed Xue Rengui to arrange. With the order given, not long after, mortars began to bombard the gate tower. Amidst the sound of hong long long, the left pioneer The soldiers under his command had been transferred to launch a fierce attack.

A total of 13,000 people began to attack Zhangye County. The densely packed army was scattered, and Zuo Xianfeng was wearing armor, running and shouting: “My sons, kill! Today, whoever is the first to kill will be the first to win. Kill with me, The soldiers under my Zuo Xianfeng鈥檚 command are not scumbags. Every time they do meritorious services, other armies are the ones who do meritorious service. Now our elephant army also kills once, kill!”

Beside Zuo Xianfeng, the soldiers charge quickly.

Soldiers sprint continuously.

After the underwhelming people approached the city, not long after, the gate tower had already responded. Some soldiers shot out with bows and arrows, and some catapults shot Gunpowder pots out and bombed them. Only under the bombardment of mortars, on the gate tower guarded by Liu Hongcheng, the counterattack was suppressed, unable to form a blocking momentum.

So much so that the army led by the left vanguard is fast approaching, getting closer and closer to the gate tower.

Pap! Click!

A stack of aerial ladders quickly set up on the gate tower.

One by one Xia Country soldiers began to climb up the ladder. Zuo Xianfeng took the lead. With a steel knife in his mouth and a ladder in his hands, he quickly climbed up like an ape. He was climbing extremely fast, moving around, getting closer and closer to the gate tower. Even though the city was heavily defensive, the left pioneer did not stop at all.

Zuo Xianfeng climbed quickly and finally rushed to the gate tower. He picked up the saber in his hand, chopped one after another, chopped over several defensive Tang Army soldiers around, and bought space and time for the Xia Country soldiers to climb up.

When the surrounding Tang Army soldiers saw this, they had swarmed and surrounded the Left Vanguard, with the intention of besieging the Left Vanguard.

In the face of a powerful enemy, Zuo Xianfeng had a cold expression and was not afraid of it. He swiped his sword to meet him, and continued to behead the Tang Army soldiers who had been killed. Even so, Zuo Xianfeng was injured, his back and ribs were cut out, blood flowed out, and his clothes were stained red. However, under the stimulation of the blood, Zuo Xianfeng became more fierce, constantly swinging his knife and hacking.

The Tang Army soldiers who came up one by one were beheaded.

Zuo Xianfeng grinned, and the blood-stained face was even more hideous and terrifying. Around him, corpses fell down.
