Chapter 641

"The general is not good. Someone is attacking the city."

Suddenly, outside the door, a soldier rushed in and said loudly.

"Siege, come so fast."

Li Chugeng suddenly got up, grabbed the sword around him with his backhand, and walked out with great strides.

"How many people have come?"

"I don't know. There are about 20000 sieges now. The follow-up troops can't see clearly."

"Who are the enemy generals?"

"I don't know. The other side didn't say a word. They attacked fiercely and didn't light the flag. They only knew it was the Tang army."

Hearing this, Li Chugeng stepped forward.

It seems that the other side is going to launch a surprise attack. So it seems that there is no hope for reinforcements. Presumably, the three cities in the front fortress should be attacked. However, which city is the main target of the other side.

No doubt, if Xue Rengui or Guo Jia knew Li Chugeng's idea at the moment, he would be very impressed.

Obviously, the Longnan City guard has seen through their surprise attack, and even has already made preparations, even they have guessed the idea of deliberately not exposing the main force.

"Let the young general break through and deliver the letter as soon as possible."

Li Chugeng said after pondering for a moment.

"It's the general."

Li Chugeng strode to the city.

Although he did not understand the purpose of Zhao Kuangyin's attack on the Tang Dynasty, he also felt that the battle was not worth the loss at the beginning, but as a minister, loyalty to the emperor was necessary.

At the moment, he was very clear about his responsibility. The purpose of the attack on the three cities was not only to open the door of the Northern Song Dynasty, but also to cover something.

We should know that it is not wise to divide our forces into raids when the forces of both sides are equal.

Once you pass on the war situation, you will be waiting for the Tang Dynasty to be defeated.

What is their purpose in doing so.

Li Chugeng didn't understand this, but he knew very well that his task at the moment was to hold the city and wait for reinforcements.

When Li Chugeng came to the top of the city, he could see that the Tang army was desperate to attack Longnan City, but they were all ordinary soldiers, and there were no practitioners.

Soon, Li Chugeng's brows were locked together.

The fighting capacity of the Tang army is too strong.

How can the arrows of guarding the city and the rolling wood and stone do so little damage to them? If they were ordinary soldiers, they would be killed at once, but the soldiers of Tang army could still get up after falling down the ladder.

Damn it.

Not only Li Chugeng, but also other officers and men of the Northern Song Dynasty looked at the Tang army with a confused face.

This is really an ordinary soldier, not a monk. Who are you cheating on.

"Come on, let's go out of the city to fight."

Suddenly, Li went out of the city and ordered loudly.

"General, the enemy's attack momentum is fierce, and they don't know whether the enemy's forces are real or not. It's better to wait for the reinforcements and wait for the relief."

A deputy said.

Other generals also nodded, obviously in support of the deputy's statement.

They all saw that the Tang army was brave and good at fighting. Its combat effectiveness was much stronger than that of their soldiers. In fact, Longnan City had few troops and practitioners.

They are not at all sure about the frontal battle.

People are like this. No matter when they are, they will definitely choose the best side for themselves. Obviously, defending the city is the safest.

"Reinforcements, ha ha, now Linxi, the situation of Tian'an is certainly the same as us, even more difficult than us. The Tang army's attack is based on the idea of blocking the news and attacking the three cities silently. There are reinforcements there at this time. "

Li Chugeng said heavily.

"Well, general, what shall we do?"

"General, you mean we're going to be stuck here."

"General, let's break through."

For a moment, the generals understood what Li Chugeng meant and said anxiously.

They saw the strength of the Tang army, but also know their own weakness, can not help but come up with this idea.

"Joke, if you break through and escape now, do you think your majesty will spare us?"

Li Chugeng said with a sneer.

"Well, general, what do you say to do?"

"Do something, general."

"Is there no other way for the general?"

Zhao Kuangyin clearly rewards and punishments, these generals are clear, once they know that they abandoned the city to escape, I'm afraid these people will die miserably, but there seems to be no way to survive here.

"The enemy's siege may not be so terrible. You and their rear camp are so far apart that you don't want to expose your strength. The Tang army is divided into three routes. It's impossible that every route is very strong. There must be some strong and some weak. Otherwise, they can't hold on to Linxi city. Now that you are in a desperate situation, do you dare to gamble with our general?"

Li Chugeng's voice rose sharply."I've sent someone to break through the encirclement to deliver the letter. Later, the general will fight with the enemy with all his strength. If the tone is not good, it's fate to meet the enemy's main force in different places. If it's lucky to meet the enemy's main force, the general won't share with you this day's great contribution."

Hearing this, all the soldiers were stunned, thinking about Li Chugeng's words one by one, and could not help nodding to themselves.

According to common sense, Li Chugeng's inference has no problem.

The strength of the three cities is different. In principle, the enemy's siege will be divided according to the strength of the defending party. There may not be many enemies attacking them here. Otherwise, they don't have to bluff. So many people will stay in the rear camp and refuse to attack.

In addition, Li Chugeng always had no idea what to do. He made a lot of contributions with them. These people were also very convinced of Li Chugeng.

"Where is the general, the general is willing to go to war with the general."

"The end will be willing to go."

"The end will also be willing to fight."

But for a moment, the morale of the soldiers who had been demoralized just now had been aroused.

Li Chugeng nodded and said, "OK, all the soldiers will follow me out of the city to fight."

Outside the city, Xue Rengui is making arrangements for the siege. Originally, he was preparing to attack the more powerful Tian'an city. After all, according to intelligence, there are more defenders in Tian'an city.

But Guo Jia went to ask him to come to Longnan City. He said that after he came, he would know why.

"Report general, Longnan City garrison out of the city to meet?"

"What?"

Xue Rengui was stunned. He couldn't believe it.

When the enemy forces attack the city, the defenders take the initiative to attack. These are several meanings. Normally speaking, we should not defend the city with all our strength, reduce casualties and wait for reinforcements.

"No, the other side saw through the purpose of the siege."

As soon as he read this, Xue Rengui's face changed dramatically and said in a hurry.

"General Qiao Feng, you quickly lead the royal guards to support the troops besieged in other directions. The other side has experts to send messages out of the city."

In the tent, a figure is fleeting.

On the other side, Xue Rengui had a sneer on his lips.

It seems that there is a very interesting opponent here.

"Come and meet the enemy with our general." ..
