Chapter 34

After everyone followed Xin Zhao, they also encountered dozens of fast Karasuma soldiers on the way. Xin Zhao and others rushed up, chopped them into meat, and quickly withdrew before the enemy reinforcements arrived!
Xin Zhao is not a fool, he ordered all the troops under his command to divide into several teams to disperse and march, when encountering a small group of enemies, he will kill them with a thunderbolt, and when encountering a large group of enemies, he will quickly change his route and retreat!

After about two sticks of incense, Xin Zhao took the lead and led more than 300 people under his command into the city gate granary!Because the granary is wide and as an important strategic material storage place, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so Xin Zhao used this place as a stronghold to fight and defend here, waiting for good news from Gongsun Zan!

After another half an hour, all the parts under his command just arrived!However, it is a bit regrettable that because of Wei Lie's greed for war, he has been entangled with Karasuma soldiers for too long. Although nearly a hundred Karasuma soldiers were beheaded, more than 200 soldiers under his command were surrounded by Karasuma's later soldiers. Stay, can't go out for a long time!
Fortunately, Zhu Tong arrived with his troops and provided support outside. Wei Lie fought to the death and escaped. Only 30 of the hundreds of soldiers under his command were left. It can be said that the entire army was wiped out.

Xin Zhao comforted Wei Lie, but he didn't mention it.Karasuma's army and Liu Yu's army started a scuffle in the city. At the beginning, Liu Yu led his confidant soldiers to resist. Later, seeing that there were too many enemy troops pouring into the city, he knew that he was helpless. , fled overnight in embarrassment, not knowing where he was going.

Let's say that when Karasuma captured Shanggu City, Dongfang just paid for it.Standing on the top of the city, Taida faced the east, laughed loudly and said, "Who said that I, Karasuma, can't get in. Today, I, Taida, have fulfilled the dream of Karasuma's ancestors for generations, haha!"

At this time, a bloody soldier ran up from the city and knelt down and said: "General, there are thousands of Han troops guarding the warehouse in the city!"

"Thousands of Han troops? Have you ever seen it clearly?" Tie Da asked with a frown.

The soldier put his palm on his chest and saluted again: "Yes, general, I also saw the general of the Han army, Xin Zhao."

"Xin Zhao? This kid still dares to stay in the city, okay! I'll let you die in the Cangyuan! Come on, launch an attack for me, and take down the Cangyuan before dark!" Fang waved his big hand.

Behind him, a man dressed as a Han came out, cupped his hands and said, "General, no!"

The person who spoke was none other than Lu Yuan, who had recently taken refuge with Jin Yan last night.

The Lu Academy has made a great contribution to the capture of Shanggu County!He laughed at what he said, turned his head to look at Lu Yuan and said, "Haha, I'm not a fool, my army has been attacking the city for a day, how can I not be tired! Pass down the order, strictly defend, and the other soldiers will survive rest."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he was secretly surprised. This Jin Yan was not a mediocre person. Compared to his father who was blindly arrogant, he at least had some self-awareness.

In the barnyard, Xin Zhao sat in the field, surrounded by people.

Among these people, there are Zhu Tong, Zhou Cang, Tang Lei, Tang De and other trusted followers of Zhao Xin, and there are also many refugees. The most surprising thing is that there are many Liu Yu's subordinates!After these people saw Xin Zhao, they all stood up and saluted, their eyes full of respect.

Xin Zhao smiled and blended in with these people, talking and laughing.

During the chat, these people were very disdainful of Liu Yu's actions.Xin Zhao just excused Liu Yu again and again, this time, Xin Zhao's image in the minds of this group of people was once again elevated a lot.

While they were chatting, there were chaotic footsteps outside, and the flames lit up the sky. Xin Zhao knew that the Karasuma soldiers of Taida had finally surrounded them.

"Gongsun Zan, you must hurry up, I'm afraid I won't last until tomorrow." At this time, there were only three thousand soldiers in Cangyuan. If Tie Da sent troops to storm Cangyuan, it would take less than a day to break through!
But what Xin Zhao gambled on was that in order to preserve his military power, he might resort to starvation tactics!Gein is now urgently trapped in the barnyard by the Han army, without food and water. As time goes on, they will collapse without fighting.

"Zhao Zilin, I think you are a hero, submit to me, and I will definitely give you great use!" Outside the city, remembering the shouts of the scorpion, Zhao Xin laughed, looked around the crowd and said: "This scorpion has the face to come and shout, haha , Oh, that’s right, it’s his father who lost his tongue and couldn’t shout, haha!”

He shouted several times, but there was no reply from the Cangyuan. If he hadn't looked at the soldiers of the Han army standing on the wall of the Cangyuan, Tie Tian even wondered if his soldiers had falsely reported the news.

"Lu Yuan, what's the situation in this warehouse?" Tie Da asked Lu Yuan with a wave of his hand.

"General, the granary here is the place where the big man has been storing grain all the year round in order to resist the invasion of foreign races. It's just that the eunuch is in power. The standing food in the granary has long been stolen by someone. Food and grass, and refugees all pouring into it during the day, so there are too many people and little food. General, the last general suggested that we should encircle and not attack, within five days, Xin Zhao will be defeated."

Hearing this, Tie Tan nodded, frowned in thought, and then laughed and said, "That's right! Now Shanggu is under my control, and Liu Yu has also been defeated. I want to see how capable the Han army is."

Afterwards, Tie Tian raised his head and shouted to the wall: "Xin Zhao! If you don't surrender, you will starve to death inside!"

Surrounded by all his confidantes and beloved generals, the victorious Tai Da threw off his cloak and strode away.Lu Yuan stayed where he was, frowning, thinking: Should Gongsun Zan tell Tai Tai about Gongsun Zan's surprise attack on the rear?
"Lu Yuan? What are you thinking?" Tie Tai couldn't help calling out without seeing Lu Yuan.

Hearing this, Lu Yuan hurriedly agreed, followed in small steps, and the two laughed and walked away in a panic.

Xin Zhao sat in the barnyard, listening to the movement outside with his ears pricked up, feeling a little flustered in his heart, wouldn't this scorpion go back to rest first, and then come over to beat me in the middle of the night, right?
……

Staying there until the second day, Xin Zhao, who hadn't slept all night, stood up, climbed to the top of the wall of the barnyard, looked outside, and saw a bow and arrow flying head-on!
"Wow!" Xin Zhao hurriedly turned his head to avoid it, shouted and looked out, many people under the wall looked at Xin Zhao's crooked back, wondering what he was doing.

"Reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming!"

Because the Cangyuan is only three to 400 meters away from the city wall, and Xin Zhao is on the wall of the Cangyuan, so he can see the scene on the city wall at a glance.

Karasuma's soldiers were all covered in leather armor, standing on the top of the city, each holding a bow and arrow and shooting outside!
As soon as Xin Zhao finished speaking, there was a burst of shouting and killing outside the city!
"Reinforcement is here! Reinforcement is here! Reinforcement is here!" The people and soldiers cheered and shouted. The joy of the rest of life after death made them embrace each other regardless of gender.
