Before Wang Shuo's army appeared, the Shun army had been attacking Xining City.The war drums under the city echoed throughout the night, shaking the hearts of the people above and below the city.Qinghai Xuanwei is making Qi Tingzhi look melancholy, standing on the arrow tower of the east city gate, which is the main attack gate of the enemy army.He stayed here all night, commanding the native soldiers to resist the attack of the Shun army.At critical moments, you have to personally put on the battle and participate in the fight.The news that Wang Shuo had led 10,000 iron horsemen to reach Pingrong Station made him completely relieved.As a last resort, he would not have made the decision to abandon the city under any circumstances.There are his wives and concubines, his children, and the huge family business he has worked so hard to run, how can he give up all this, he drove all the young and strong soldiers in the city and the native soldiers who can still move to the city, as long as he holds on until Wang Shuo arrives, he will win.The Shun army desperately attacked the city, without any interruption, the city was full of gaps, and the Shun army continued to rush up, and it was in danger.Seeing that the sky was about to brighten, there was still no shadow of Wang Shuo's army.Ping'an Town is only more than ten miles away from here, why hasn't Wang Shuo heard from the fire, and the black-pressed Shun army gathered under the city again.Lu Yinchang turned from the south gate to help defend the tight east gate.Looking at the Shun army approaching again, Qi Tingzhi was a little discouraged, and shook his head at Lu Yinchang, who was standing beside him, and said: "If General Wang fails to make an appointment, we can't hold out tonight anyway" Hu Lianqi, who joined the army, said behind them: "The thief soldiers have been attacking the city wall for half a month, and there are many casualties, as long as we hold on with all our strength, the thief army will not be helpless." ”Qi Tingji glanced back at him, and said angrily: "The enemy army has many casualties, will we wait for fewer casualties, at present, there are less than 5,000 people left in the entire Xining Fort, where are the Tusi soldiers you went to recruit now" Hu Lianqi stopped talking.The little Tusi who gathered in the city without listening to the order didn't want to go against the Shun army at all, waited and watched, wavering, whoever won they would vote, Hu Lianqi and Lu Yinchang said: "Don't be anxious, Wang Shuo, I still know, this person is brave, he will practice what he says, rest assured" The native soldiers came from afar, knelt down on one knee and shouted: "It is rumored that the enemy will be under the city, and it is not too late for you to sacrifice the city now, if you are slow, you will" looked at a few people and did not dare to continue.Qi Tingzhi glared at the native soldier and said loudly: "Speak" The native soldier said: "The enemy general said, if you don't surrender the city immediately, when the city is broken, you will definitely kill all the adults and their families" Lu Yinchang was furious, raised his knife to go out of the arrow tower, gritted his teeth and said: "If you don't kill Lu Wenbin, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart" Qi Tingzhi stopped him and said: "There is no need to be like such a thief, I can delay for a moment, and General Wang's army will be one step closer." ”He said to the native soldier, "Don't report this kind of news." ”The native soldier saluted.Lu Wenbin under the city never intended to leave time for the two consolation envoys to rest, and the ladders, arrow towers, and crashing cars that attacked the city poured up overwhelmingly, and the shouts shook the entire valley with a buzz.Lu Yinchang grabbed the Pu knife that was clinging to the corridor of the arrow tower, and shouted: "Kill the thief with me" and ran to the city wall full of gaps.At this moment, the shouts of the Shun army under the city became quieter, and then they retreated.The Shun army, which feinted to attack the south gate, also approached the north gate.Hu Lianqi shouted on the arrow tower: "General Wang has arrived" and saw countless torches appear in the distance in the dark, and there were also fires flickering on the surrounding mountains.Lu Yinchang ran up from the city wall and said to Qi Ting: "General Wang is here, we will also go out of the city, and we will cooperate with him inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to destroy Lu Wenbin in a battle" Qi Tingzhi is older and much calmer.He looked at the pass and said, "Don't worry, wait for General Wang's army to approach Lu Wenbin, and the two sides will fight together, and I will wait for a sudden attack and surprise him, so that we can get miraculous results."
The Arrow Tower is the commanding height, and you can see the entire battlefield.Qi Tingji soon discovered that Wang Shuo's troops were limited, and the others quickly understood.Qi Tingzhi began to think in his heart.Wang Shuo's head-on confrontation is still insufficient, and there is no doubt that there are suspicious soldiers on the mountain.Looking at it this way, it is difficult for Wang Shuo to gain an advantage on the battlefield, and maybe he will be defeated by Lu Wenbin.And this little remnant of the army in his city, he can't defend the city, and if he goes out of the city to fight a field battle with the Shun army, wouldn't it be tantamount to sending him to death, if he does that, he will lose all his troops, and he won't be able to run when he wants to.When Lu Yinchang asked to leave the city again, Qi Tingzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly, pointed to the city and said, "Look at the city, there are at least 10,000 soldiers waiting for you.I count the people, it is less than 5,000, and it is not in vain to rush out to die" Indeed, counting on their stragglers, they can't even rush out of the city gate, let alone break through the Shun army array under the city to support Wang Shuo.Sure enough, as Qi Tingzhi expected, after a long time, the numerical advantage of the Shun army was gradually revealed, and the Ming army under the city was slowly trapped in the middle by the Shun army, and the casualties began to increase.The soldiers trained by Wang Shuo fought hard and did not retreat, and a three-person formation was broken, and he immediately merged the three-person formation that was also broken and continued to fight to the death.It was already dawn, and Lu Wenbin gradually saw that Wang Shuo did not have many soldiers, and it could be said that he did not have half of his troops.I said, where did he come from so many soldiers to rush to scare Lao Tzu, he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, and the command was handy.The Shun army on the battlefield also saw the gap between the opponent's number and their own, no longer panicked and scared, and fought bravely
