Tian Shi was really frightened this time.
He shouted to retreat and then turned his horse around and ran towards the camp.
Mei Yu, Lu Qing and others who were commanding the siege from the front received the order to retreat and quickly commanded the army to retreat.
A vigorous siege ended in such an embarrassing manner.
Si Xingfang and Xu Ning led 3,000 cavalry to chase them for a while and then gave up the pursuit.
After all, the number was too small.
If they chased too far away from the city, what if Tian Hu's army surrounded them in turn?
Don't miss it.
Guan Sheng laughed loudly when he saw Tian Hujun retreating from the city, and immediately shouted, "Notify the whole army to eat meat at night" "Ouch!"
After hearing Guan Sheng's words, the soldiers all screamed, and all the tension caused by defending the city was released at once.
Si Xingfang and Xu Ning led the cavalry into the city, and were greeted by Guan Sheng and Niu Wenzhong Bujie at the city gate.
"Hahaha, these two brothers are really amazing.
They killed the enemy with a sword and forced Tian Shi to flee in panic.
This is really gratifying for them to keep the city intact."
Guan Sheng happily said to Si Xingfang and Xu Ning said.
"Haha, I have been simmering with rage for days after being surrounded by Tian Shi's birdmen and attacking the city.
I vented all my resentment in today's battle, but it's a pity that Tian Shi escaped," Si Xingfang replied happily.
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Niu Wenzhong said, "Brother, don't worry.
If the birdman doesn't withdraw his troops, he will be captured by us sooner or later.
At that time, we must take a good breath."
"Brother is right" Several people laughed for a while at the city gate, and then returned to the city together.
The joyful laughter in Xiangzhou City that night could be heard clearly even by Tian Shijun's spies who were ambushing outside the city.
Different from the happy atmosphere in the city, Tian Shijun's camp outside the city was full of loss and depression.
In the camp, Tian Shi sat there in silence.
Today's events had a huge impact on him.
Since following Tian Huzàofǎn, Tian Shi has been going smoothly and has never suffered a setback, let alone a disastrous defeat like today.
"Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers.
Major General, don't blame yourself too much.
Just win back in the future."
Mei Yu saw that Tian Shi was in a low mood, so she spoke up to enlighten him.
After hearing what Mei Yu said, Tian Shi slapped the table and said loudly, "General Mei is right.
I was too careless today, which allowed the thieves to take advantage of me.
I will definitely not make such a mistake next time."
Mei Yu and others looked at each other, and then Bi Sheng asked, "I wonder what the young general plans to do next."
At this time, Tian Shi's face regained his former arrogance, and he said loudly, "Although we were defeated for a while today, we still have more than 30,000 troops, and the defenders in Xiangzhou City can only fight at most 10,000 troops.
In terms of military strength, It looks like we still have an absolute advantage.
In this way, let the soldiers rest for two days to restore their morale, and then continue to attack the city.
I don't believe that we can't take this small Xiangzhou City."
After Tian Shi finished speaking, he thought he would get everyone's approval, but Mei Yu and others didn't speak, they just sat there thinking quietly.
"Why don't you generals speak?"
Tian Shi asked in displeasure when no one answered.
Lu Qing looked at a few people, then raised his head and said, "Major General, we have been besieging Xiangzhou for many days.
I think Lin Chong, who is in Daming Mansion at this time, has already received the news and is probably on his way here now.
We have to guard against this matter

Now we only have more than 30,000 people, and our morale is also a bit low.
If reinforcements from Liangshan arrive at this time, it will be very disadvantageous for us.
Therefore, in the opinion of the general, it is better to withdraw the troops back to Longde Mansion, rest there for a while, then ask for help from the king, and wait until the reinforcements arrive before sending troops to attack Xiangzhou. " Tian Shi didn't think about Liangshan's reinforcements, but Lu Qing and others did.
It was precisely because of this that they were silent just now.
"What do you know?"
Tian Shi became furious after hearing Lu Qing's words.
"If we withdraw to Longde Mansion according to your plan, wouldn't this tell the king that this battle has failed?
We still have more than 30,000 troops, so what if the Liangshan reinforcements arrive?
Besides, the Daming Mansion is currently at war with the government and the army, and it has too much time to take care of itself, so how can it have any spare manpower to reinforce Xiangzhou?
Taking a step back, even if Lin Chong really dispatched people to come to the rescue, how many people could be sent?
Ten thousand and twenty thousand can't be fifty thousand or one hundred thousand, right?
So there is no need to worry at all, as long as we can capture Xiangzhou before the Liangshan reinforcements arrive, and then send people to ask the king for reinforcements, then we will kill two birds with one stone."
Tian Shi shouted out his thoughts.
Several other people looked at each other in shock.
This was just a child getting angry.
However, Tian Shi is not only the commander in chief of the attack on Xiangzhou, but also Tian Hu's nephew, so whatever he says must be implemented no matter how inappropriate it may seem to a few people.
"Yes, I'll take the order."
The four of them looked at each other and stood up together to take the order.
Seeing that several people agreed obediently, Tian Shi's lips curved with satisfaction.
At noon the next day, at the head of Xiangzhou City.
Guan Sheng looked at Tian Shi's army camp in the distance and said to several others, "It seems that Tian Shi will not come to attack the city today."
"Haha, this bird man almost lost his life yesterday.
How can he have the courage to attack the city?
Maybe he will retreat in the next two days after being frightened like this."
Niu Wenzhong was born in Green Forest, so he spoke without any scruples.
Likes to be direct.
"Brother Wenzhong is right.
I don't know what Tian Hu is thinking.
He actually sent such a little boy to lead the army.
He really thinks that I, the hero of Liangshan, have a false reputation," Si Xingfang replied loudly.
After listening to what the two brothers said, Guan Sheng flicked his long beard with his hand, and then said, "It shouldn't be possible to retreat.
If Tian Shi had any intention of retreating, he would have retreated overnight last night.
But there is no movement yet, which shows that he has no intention of retreating."
I am unwilling to give in and want to make a final struggle.”
After all, Guan Sheng had rich experience, and he could infer a rough idea of Tian Shi's thoughts from this simple information.
After hearing this, everyone felt it made sense and nodded in agreement.
After a while, Xu Ning said, "According to the time, Brother Lin should be here in the next two days."
Guan Sheng nodded and said, "Brother is right.
If my brother sets out as soon as he receives the news, I think he will arrive tonight before tomorrow."
"Almost, I don't know who my brother will send," Xu Ning replied.
After listening to Xu Ning's words, Guan Sheng showed a happy smile on his face, and then said, "Actually, brother should be able to guess that with his character, if he knew that Tian Hu sent an army to attack, he would definitely lead the troops himself.
I know that my brother has always said that I will not offend others unless they offend me, but I will offend them if they offend me."
After listening to Guan Sheng's words, several people thought in their hearts that this was really the case, and they all laughed happily.
They had not seen each other for almost half a year since the last time they said goodbye, and they were really panicking:
