My clone is on the other side of the starry sky
Chapter 10 Fulfillment
A good beginning may not necessarily end well.
Although the green energy protecting the city is gone, the city wall is still there.
After witnessing the collapse of the indestructible green energy protecting the city in an instant, the morale of the entire rebel army was high. Following Guo Chang's order, all parties commanded their troops to attack the city wall.
There are only a thousand soldiers in the city, but there are tens of thousands of rebels, so they can easily defeat it!
Except for Lu Xuan and Yang Chong, everyone felt that conquering Sanyang County was a certainty.
According to the previous plan, except for Lu Xuan who was left by Guo Chang, the twelve capital commanders all joined the siege.
Hundreds of simple long ladders were erected on the city wall, and the rebels swarmed up like an ant nest. From time to time, some rebels were squeezed off the ladders by the rebels who wanted to take credit.
"Sir, most of the city defense equipment is driven by the green energy of the city protection. Now that the green energy of the city protection has dissipated, many of the city defense equipment cannot be used. Let's escape!" At the head of Sanyang City, the two county captains have never experienced such a scene. , they were all a little panicked at this moment.
Although county captains are one of the few official positions in the county, they do the most tiring work. Public security, tax collection, and arrests are basically tasks that involve interfering with the people. But when it comes to fighting, they are now The most panicked.
Shi Guan was a little moved, and the green energy of the city guard broke, breaking his confidence. Looking at the rebel army coming up like a black tide, if nothing else, the momentum was still very scary.
"How to escape?" Li Xinian, who looked gloomy and defeated, sighed and said, "The thieves are besieging the city on all sides. Where are you going to escape?"
Shi Guan's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but the two county lieutenants were a little unhappy. One of them frowned and looked at Li Xinian and said, "Sir, you have been here all the time. How do you know about the enemy's arrangements?"
"You can tell the difference yourself." Li Xinian was hit hard and didn't want to say anything. He just glanced at the two of them lightly.
"Don't be rude to sir!" Shi Guan shouted. He knew very well that Li Xinian's cultivation in Confucianism and Taoism was extremely high, and the Qing Qi of the city guard was broken. Although Li Xinian was injured and he was unable to use his methods for a short period of time, his spirit was not damaged. , what is the situation of Sanyang City, people can tell at a glance. At this time, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, there is no need to lie to themselves.
"Sir, what should we do now?" After scolding the two county captains, Shi Guan looked at Li Xinian and asked.
"The thieves are ignorant of the art of war and surrounded us on all sides. They have cut off our retreat, but they have also cut off their own retreat. For this purpose, we have no choice but to hold on." Li Xinian sighed.
"How... can we hold on to this?" A county lieutenant looked at the dark crowd below the city and felt his legs were weak.
"Although the bandits are numerous, they cannot fly up the city wall, and they have no siege equipment. They rely on these long ladders. Unlike the siege ladders, these long ladders are extremely easy to damage. All you have to do is guard the long ladders. "
Li Xinian paused, took several breaths, and then continued: "The bandits are called rebels, but they only know how to loot. The army must not have much food and supplies. We only need to hold on for a few days, and the bandits will retreat."
"Sir, the total number of Sanyang County lieutenants and government servants is only a thousand. They are divided in various places, which is not enough." Another county lieutenant said with a bitter smile.
"Then go and recruit the servants of the wealthy families in the city. It is not difficult to recruit thousands of people. If the city is destroyed, they will definitely suffer." Li Xinian looked at Shi Guandao: "At this time, they will not refuse."
"Send someone to do it quickly." Shi Guan saw that the rebels had begun to show up behind the parapet, and he pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "I am waiting for the imperial salary. How can I abandon the city and flee at this time? Kill with me!"
With that said, he rushed to the female wall and swung his sword to kill the two rebels who had just climbed up the city wall.
Seeing that the county magistrates of their own had gone into battle in person, the morale that had been low due to the broken Qing Qi protecting the city suddenly recovered a little.
A county lieutenant quickly ran to arrange for manpower to find important figures from the major wealthy families in the city, while another man, under the command of Li Xinian, went to the other side to defend the city.
These officials knew very well that once the city was breached by these people, they would be the first to suffer.
They know very well how they deal with these mud-legged people on weekdays, and they also know their own fate. Therefore, a group of officials and government servants who usually go about their lives have become the most active group at this moment, running around and frantically blocking and attacking them. For a time, although the rebels were numerous, they were unable to attack the city wall.
"Commander, something is wrong. Let me go!" After Lu Xuan observed for a while, he realized that although the opponent's resistance was fierce, the number of people was small. If he led his elite troops to attack and occupy a section of the city wall at this time, it would really be possible to break through the city. Immediately Ask Guo Chang for orders.
"Lu Dutong's troops are all elite, and it's not yet time for Lu Dutong to take action!" Guo Chang glanced at him and shook his head.
Lu Xuan's popularity among the rebels is already vaguely higher than his own. If he can succeed in destroying the city, he may not be able to suppress him at all in the future.
Idiot, wait until people mobilize the people in the city, but you will have no chance!
Lu Xuan looked at Guo Chang, and when he saw that the other person was not looking at him, he sighed in his heart. His boss's vision was too shallow, and he could only see the immediate benefits, but not the long-term.
If Guo Chang is willing to push Lu Xuan, even if Lu Xuan is on the same level as him in the future, what can Lu Xuan really do to him with this kind of love?
But there is no way. Now Guo Chang is strictly guarding against himself and does not give himself a chance to make meritorious deeds. At least the Sanyang County rebels may not be able to get up.
He knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he simply stepped aside and ignored him.
There is a high probability that this city cannot be conquered today.
Sure enough, just as Lu Xuan had guessed, as time went by, various wealthy families in the city sent their own guardians and servants. Although these people did not understand battle formations, they were obviously enough to defend the city. After all, the opponent is not a strong army.
With the addition of these people, the pressure to defend the city was suddenly relieved a lot. The rebels had missed the best opportunity to break the city. As time went by, the number of casualties of the rebels continued to increase, but the progress of the siege was getting worse. Overtide.
Many long ladders were smashed by the defenders with huge rocks. The rebels were already lacking in siege equipment. With fewer long ladders, the pressure on the city would naturally be smaller.
After the initial panic, the defenders gradually adapted. Shi Guan and others gradually figured out some ways to defend the city, making it increasingly difficult to attack the city.
At first, the rebels were able to rush onto the city, but by evening, they could hardly even touch the city wall.
Guo Chang's expression gradually darkened, but he did not expect this situation.
I thought that once the green energy of protecting the city was broken, attacking the city would not be like eating and drinking water? In the past, when we attacked those villages and towns, even if there were officers and soldiers, they would flee. Did these officers and soldiers take the wrong medicine today?
After hesitating for a moment, Guo Chang gritted his teeth and turned to look at Lu Xuan: "Lu Dutong, send troops immediately to attack the city!"
If you go here at this time, wouldn't you risk your death?
"Commander Commander, it's getting late, and fighting at night is even more disadvantageous for our army." Lu Xuan did not directly refute, but advised that it was meaningless to continue the attack at this time.
"I asked you to send troops!?" Guo Chang stared at Lu Xuan with an ugly face, murderous intent in his eyes.
"Commander Commander, do you have to explain what I'm saying? When I asked for the order to attack the city, it was the best time to break the city. There were not many officers and soldiers guarding the city at that time. If we concentrated our elite troops to break it, we would have a chance. Now the opponent already has There is no shortage of reinforcements and soldiers to defend the city, but without the green energy to protect the city, it will be difficult to break the city with just these ladders in our hands!" Lu Xuan took a deep breath and shook his head decisively.
"You dare to disobey the military order? I really don't dare to kill you!?" Guo Chang's eyes flashed fiercely, the momentum around him surged, and the invisible energy locked Lu Xuan.
"Humph~"
Lu Xuan groaned. The other person was Zhang Yuqing's direct disciple. He had complete skills and was a level higher than himself. The pressure that seemed to be at the level of life made Lu Xuan's breathing difficult.
But at this moment, Lu Xuan refused to take a step back, looked directly into Guo Chang's eyes, and said loudly: "The commander-in-chief can kill me, but he cannot ask my brothers to die. We can die in battle, but we must not die in vain like this!"
Behind Lu Xuan, three hundred elite men came forward silently. Three hundred pairs of eyes were staring at Guo Chang. As long as Guo Chang dared to take action, they would dare to rebel with Lu Xuan.
When Guo Chang saw this, the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly turned around and shouted to the bodyguard beside him: "Ming Jin, withdraw your troops!"
As the golden sound rang out, the already exhausted rebels retreated like a tide, and they could vaguely hear the cheers coming from the top of the city...
