As soon as there was any movement from the Anguo navy, Xiao Yu and Guan Shan, who were closely monitoring the enemy, noticed it.After estimating the number of people grabbing food, Guan Shan made a decisive decision and decided to take the initiative to attack. The enemy took the initiative to disperse. This is a good opportunity, and they have an absolute advantage in numbers.

When Guan Shan led his soldiers to arrive, the Anguo Navy was already grabbing food.After these people entered the village, if they came to their own homes, some would turn over rice buckets, some would pluck granaries, some would catch chickens and ducks, and some would drive cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs.

He looked like a group of bandits and hooligans, full of ugly appearances, and he didn't even look like a master of the king.

Fortunately, these people came during the day, and the people saw the menacing team from a distance, and they helped the old and the young to flee to the mountains, leaving everything behind except their families.

Seeing this scene, the Guangzhou army was filled with righteous indignation. They are often taught that they are a team of the common people. Drive them out of their homes.

In this battle, the morale of the Guangzhou army was high, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became. The Anguo Navy, who had been hungry for several meals, was no match at all.

In order to prevent them from escaping back to report the letter, they adopted an outflanking strategy. Guan Shan's instructions were very clear, those who were unwilling to disarm and surrender would be killed without mercy!

In less than two hours, the battle was over, with more than 3000 casualties in the Anguo navy, most of whom were captured.Many people disarmed voluntarily because they were too hungry to fight.Moreover, the Guangzhou army claimed that they would not kill prisoners. Rather than being a starving ghost without knowing why, it would be better to surrender and have a full meal. The emperor's surname is Xiao, and everyone should be the same.

After the battle, Guan Shan withdrew quickly.Lu Meng would become suspicious if these people delayed for too long, and they might not be able to bear it if they sent the main force over.

After returning to the other side, Guan Shan wrote a letter to report the details to Xiao Yu, and sent a pigeon to deliver the letter after dark.

As soon as a large number of troops from the An Guo Navy were dispatched, the city already noticed that they were out looking for food.

Xiao Yu was concerned about the people in his heart, he was restless, and walked back and forth countless times in the yard, waiting for the scouts to report to him.However, until it got dark, there was no news of Anguo Navy coming back.He was so worried that he didn't even have an appetite for dinner.

Xiang Yang advised him: "Your Majesty, you'd better eat, don't wait, I guess Brother Nine should take action."

Xiao Yu looked at Xiang Yang: "Really?"

Xiang Yang licked his lips and said, "Ninth brother is a thoughtful person. He always likes to do first and talk later. You should be able to receive his letter in the evening."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu was obviously even more uneasy: "Then General Guan will be fine. This time the enemy has dispatched tens of thousands of people. I don't know if he has made a perfect plan."

Lai Feng on the side also said: "Your Majesty, Ninth Brother is calm and cautious in his actions. He never advances rashly. If he sends troops, he must be quite sure. You might as well wait for his news."

Xiao Yu nodded: "Alright, wait for news from General Guan."

Sure enough, at night, the scouts sent good news: "Your Majesty, there is a letter about the general."

When Xiao Yu saw it, his brows were filled with joy, and he patted the table excitedly: "Haha, Guan Shan did a great job! Come on, come on!"

Min Chong, who was waiting for the news with him, asked: "But Guan Shan fought against the enemy and won?"

Xiao Yu grinned from ear to ear: "Exactly. Nearly a thousand enemies were wiped out, more than two thousand were injured, and the rest were captured and taken to the other side of the river. In total, [-] enemies were killed. Our current strength is about the same as that of the enemy."

Min Chong nodded in satisfaction: "General Guan is indeed brave, courageous and resourceful, and he has made a great contribution. But I think Lu Meng will order the attack tonight, and they can't afford it."

Xiao Yu became serious: "Send an order to strengthen the guard. Make all the soldiers alert."

Min Chong asked, "Do you want to notify General Guan?"

Xiao Yu shook his head: "I don't think it's necessary for the time being, we can still stick to it for one night. General Guan's men are too tired today, so it's not suitable to fight again. Let them rest for one night first."

"Observe the order!" Min Chong got up and went to arrange defense.

It was Ye'an Guo Navy who really launched a siege battle.

The pressure of defending the city is actually relatively high, because in the past, the main defense points of the siege were the north and south gates, and there were no gates on the east and west walls, so the width of the city wall was relatively narrow and the defense was relatively weak.

Recently, the east and west sides are being expanded, and the fortifications have not yet been completed. There are many houses under construction, and a lot of bricks and stones have been piled up, which provides a lot of convenience for the enemy.

After the enemy arrived, they really took advantage of this convenience. Taking advantage of the cover of night, they began to pile up bricks and stones under the city wall in the dark. When the daytime guards found out, the bricks and stones had already piled up three feet high.

The defenses had to be strengthened on the city wall, and a raging bonfire was lit at night. As soon as they heard movement below, they began to shoot arrows.Relying on this defensive method, the enemy was forced to temporarily give up the pile of bricks.

But after the enemy discovered the lack of food, they accelerated the pace of stacking bricks. Even in the daytime, they dared to risk their lives to pile bricks.

Are these enemy troops not afraid of death?Obviously not, but the superiors are forcing them to take risks to pile up bricks.

When Xiao Yu heard the news, he secretly rejoiced that he let the nearby villagers move away. If the enemy captured the people of Guangzhou to pile up bricks, then he would be doomed.

The Anguo soldiers knew that there were arrows aimed at them, but they had to risk their lives to move bricks and pile bricks. Obviously, in addition to the arrows here, they also had to face the swords of their superiors.

The defenders on the top of the city learned the persuasion method of Zhenbei King Xiao Yao, and persuaded these soldiers who piled up bricks to surrender simply. He will not work hungry, and he will still be a starving ghost after death.

If Lu Meng didn't launch an attack right away, many people in the Anguo Navy might resign themselves to the battle, risking their lives to pile up bricks was not counted, and they would still be hungry.

These soldiers exchanged blood and death for a stack of bricks and stones nearly one foot high. There is still a distance from the two-foot-high city wall, but it has already seriously threatened the safety of the city.

So in fact, if Lu Meng didn't take the initiative to attack, Xiao Yu would soon take the initiative to attack.Because if it goes on like this, Lu Meng will completely use the corpse to build up this pile of bricks and stones.

On the night of the siege, the enemy found a ladder from nowhere and began to build a ladder to attack the city.

Fortunately, they only piled up one pile of bricks and stones outside the east and west cities, and they can only build one ladder.This makes the guards on the east and west walls much less stressed, and everyone only needs to focus on the defense of the north and south gates.

Under Min Chong's command, the defense of the city was fought smoothly this time. Until dawn, the corpses under the city wall were already piled up, and the enemy still failed to break through the city.

After dawn, the Anguo Navy's offensive did not stop, and there were still enemy soldiers desperately climbing up the ladder, trying to attack the city in daylight.

Sensing the other party's intentions, Min Chong hurriedly replaced a group of defenders and let the original group down to rest.

Guan Shan also finally noticed that the enemy was attacking the city, so he rushed to support him.The soldiers who had rested for the night were full of energy, and charged behind the enemy who hadn't slept all night.

The An Guo navy hadn't eaten well for two days, and fought for another night. Now he was tired, hungry, and exhausted. As a result, there were densely packed enemies behind him, and he had no choice but to turn his head to meet the newcomers. coming enemies.

Min Chong in the city realized that the time had come, opened the city gate, and led all the soldiers out of the city to meet the enemy.The strength of the two sides is equal, but there is a huge gap in strength. After all, the An Guo Navy has not even filled its stomach, so who has the strength to fight.

The defenders in the city also fought fiercely with the enemy who attacked the city all night, and their physical strength was a bit severely exhausted, but the advantage was that they were not as hungry as the opponent, so they still had an advantage.

To the surprise of both Min Chong and Guan Shan, almost half of the Anguo navy dropped their weapons and surrendered with their hands raised.The Anguo Navy has no intention of fighting, and the outcome of this battle has clearly been decided.

Seeing this scene, Lu Meng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He drew his sword and directly chopped off the head of the nearest soldier who threw the knife and was about to surrender.

His lieutenant reminded him: "General! The situation is extremely unfavorable to us now. I will help you grab a horse. You should withdraw first."

Lu Meng brandished the general sword in his hand and rushed forward to kill the Guangzhou soldiers. After he killed two soldiers, he successfully attracted the attention of Min Chong. Min Chong came with his personal guards and surrounded Lu Meng. Presumably you are Lu Meng, put down your weapon, disarm and not kill!"

Lu Meng spread his legs apart, stuck the general sword in his hand on the ground in front of him, stood it with both hands, looked up at Min Chong, and said very arrogantly: "Who are you waiting for? How dare you call me the general name directly! "

Min Chong smiled slightly: "Not only Min Chong, the Minister of the Household Department of this dynasty, but also temporarily served as General Wei. Now I am in charge of the Panyu City."

"My surname is Min, a pariah who came out of no corner? I don't know him. I want to see your emperor." Lu Meng was full of contempt for Min Chong. It was obvious that he was a person who attached great importance to his family status, and he didn't put Xiao Yu very much in his place. In his eyes, even if the surname Xiao is now a royal family, in terms of background, it is still far behind Fan Yang Lu's.

Min Chong condescendingly looked at this guy who was still ostentatious when he was about to die, and said, "You are an idiot, and you want to see my majesty? Throw down the sword in your hand, or don't blame me for being rude!" He directly drew his bow , aiming at Lumeng.

Min Chong just hates this kind of person who pays attention to family status. Does having ability in his ancestors mean that his descendants will always have ability?

Lu Meng is a very face-saving person. He raised the sword in his hand: "Scholar can be killed but not humiliated! I want to fight you alone!"

Min Chong unceremoniously drew his bow and shot an arrow at his leg. Lu Meng was hit by an arrow in his left leg and immediately knelt on the ground.

Min Chong said, "Come here, tie him up!"

When someone approached, Lu Meng still struggled, waving the sword in his hand to try to resist, but the sword in his hand was knocked off by the Guangzhou soldiers, and he had to be captured without a fight.

Min Chong sneered: "I knew it would be like this, so why bother?"
