Chapter 392
On the other side, under Fenggao City.

At this time, the news of the burning of the granary in the rear had not yet spread, and the Jizhou Army's attack on the city had reached its peak.

Seeing that the hope of breaking the city was getting bigger and bigger, no matter Yuan Tan, Guo Tu and others, or even the generals in the army, everyone was almost crazy, trying to tear apart the last line of defense of the Fenggao defenders.

Under the fierce and fearless attack of the Jizhou army, the casualty rate of the defenders has risen sharply in the past few days, not to mention Changxi's pro-army, the Tianjun, and the more than 100 Tianzhu camp soldiers specially transferred by Wang Zheng at that time
Now they have suffered heavy losses, and they are almost on the verge of being defeated!
Of course, paying such a heavy enough price, the result was that the city wall at the gap in the south section was lost several times and regained several times.

But with such a tragic situation, even Chang Xi, the general, was a little desperate. It is conceivable that the morale of the defenders in the city is now low.

Most people even know that if this trend continues, it is inevitable that Fenggao City will be destroyed within a few days!

At this moment, Chang Xi had a ferocious expression, his eyes were bloodshot, and the only thought resounding in his mind was that if he really died here this time, he must kill Mu Lin himself first!

You must know that Chang Xi had planned to break through a few days ago!
At that time, the battle line of the Jizhou Army neither penetrated into this map nor completely encircled Feng Gao. If you want to escape, there is a great chance that you can escape!
However, Chang Xi was still a little hesitant at the time. After all, after breaking through, what should he do?

Although it is justifiable, whether Wang Zheng will question him because of this incident, or whether he will no longer entrust him with important tasks, these Chang Xi have no idea in their hearts, and if they directly lead their troops and abandon Wang Zheng Chang Xi was even more reluctant to vote for others.

On the one hand, Wang Zheng's current power can be regarded as a hero in today's world. On the other hand, compared with other princes from all walks of life, Chang Xi is also very clear that he may only be able to achieve a career in the heavenly army.

Wang Zheng may not be his only choice, but at present, it is the best choice.

How could Chang Xi be willing to give up easily?
So heaven and man fought for most of the night, and finally Changxi decided whether to stay or go, let God decide!
So he found Miao Lin, who had successfully predicted the attack of the Jizhou army before, and after the other party's divine divination, he gave him a prophecy: If you stay there, there will be no danger, and there will be danger everywhere.

This time there is no need to translate, Chang Xi understood instantly, half-believing, he looked at Miao Lin's swearing face, and finally chose to believe it!
Then everyone stayed!
But now.
Staring at the enemies all over the city, Chang Xi's face twitched constantly, and his words were full of crap in his heart.

Why was I so confused at the time, I believed in this Confucianist ghost!

The battle has reached this point, and the entanglement between the two sides has penetrated into this map. It is no longer possible to break through, let alone retreat.
But it can't continue like this.

Chang Xi's brain turned rapidly. He felt that he had to prepare in advance. The current situation was so bad that he began to consider for the first time to voluntarily give up the defense of the city wall and the outer city. Make arrangements in the inner city, then withdraw and continue to delay for some time.

But this strategy
Chang Xi had another worry. First, Fenggao's inner city did not have a mature and complete defense system like Pengcheng. How many days could it be defended with this?
On the other hand, it is able to survive until now, which is due to the fact that everyone in the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. Once he chooses to voluntarily abandon the outer city, Chang Xi is also worried that he will let this breath out!

Once the outer city is captured, the morale of the Jizhou army will inevitably increase, and the subsequent attacks will become more and more fierce. Can they still hold it?
Hey, what should I do?
Chang Xi was yanking his hair and worrying about it, when a cry of surprise mixed with disbelief suddenly sounded beside him.

"He's handsome, come and see!"

"The Jizhou army has retreated!"

what? !

For a moment, Chang Xi almost thought he had heard it wrong, until the guard yelled several times before he woke up, and immediately walked out from the upper floor of the gate tower, came to the side of the city wall, and looked over.

It turned out to be true!
The Jizhou Army is really mobilizing!
Although the attack on Fenggao City has not stopped, at the end of the line of sight, to the south of the enemy barracks, a large number of people can be vaguely seen leaving and heading south.Look at the scale, I'm afraid there are at least nearly [-] people
You must know that since the siege of the city, the heavenly army on Changxi's side has been disabled, but Yuan Tan's situation is not much better, and he has also lost about 8000 to [-] troops. Now such a force is actually already It is almost one-third of the Jizhou army under the city!
"The people of Jizhou have retreated! At least three steps!"

The other defenders on the top of the city also discovered the abnormal behavior of the Jizhou Army one after another, and couldn't help being overjoyed.

The good news spread like flying. Although everyone couldn't believe it and couldn't understand it at all, it is an indisputable fact that the enemy's strength under Fenggao City has been greatly reduced!

It's not that no one suspects that Yuan Tan is playing tricks, or trying to plot some tricks, but the situation in Fenggao City is already like this, and it's enough to step up the attack step by step. Is it worth using such a method?
Some astonishing change must have happened somewhere that forced Yuan Tan to divide his troops out when Feng Gaocheng was about to be breached.

But Chang Xi's heart suddenly jumped out of a thought.

Could it be that the state shepherd sent reinforcements?
After all, he had sent a letter to Wang Zheng before, although he only stated that Yuan Jun was coming to attack and never asked for help, but Wang Zheng still sent troops because he was worried that the enemy's troops would be too strong.

After all, looking around Mount Tai, apart from Yuan Shao, it is Cao Cao's sphere of influence, so it's impossible for him to come to help, right?
"Now that the enemy is mostly gone, the defense line must have another loophole!"

"Immediately send sentry riders out of the city to investigate and see if our reinforcements are coming!"

Chang Xi knew very well that whether the situation in the Fenggao War could be reversed or not, [-]% of the hopes fell on this unexpected change.So, a quarter of an hour later, on the unencircled north gate of Fenggao City, a team of cavalry was put down in a rope basket, made a big circle, avoided the possible interception of the Jizhou Army as much as possible, and then turned around and rushed southeast.

And this moment.

On the top of Tuqiu Mountain, it was the moment when the flames suddenly appeared.

At the same time, in addition to arranging some iron cavalry to stay and pay attention to the changes after the burning of the granary, Wang Zhengzheng led most of the heavenly army to retreat slowly, but did not rush towards Fenggao immediately.

Just kidding, what if you encounter the Jizhou army returning to aid at this time?
Enemies who are about to be stacked with anger BUFF should not be provoked.

After being reminded by Guo Tu, Yuan Tan suddenly realized that he had not received any news from the rear for two days. In such a panic, an enemy army of nearly ten thousand horses appeared in the rear, and had already started attacking Tuqiu Mountain last night!

Is this still available?

Frightened and angry, Yuan Tan immediately mobilized the five parts under his command and immediately returned to help Tu Qiushan.

At this time, Chang Xi and everyone in the city finally saw the flames shooting up to the sky from the southeast, so they had guesses.

After all, Yuan Jun's offensive was so fierce during this period, and the logistics supply must not be far away. In addition, at the critical moment when Feng Gao was about to be defeated, he suddenly divided his troops.
It can only be because of more important things!

For example, the food road that is related to the life and death of the entire army!
After realizing this, Chang Xi was ecstatic in his heart, but immediately told the whole army to take time to rest and prepare mentally at the same time!
After all, if the reinforcements really burned the granaries of several weeks of people, I am afraid that Fenggao will usher in the enemy's most frenzied and frenzied attack!

They want to gamble the last chance to take down Feng Gao before the food in the camp runs out!
The fire on the mountain burned for a whole day and night!
At the last moment, the fire was boiling more and more, and it was about to fly into the sky, and people could even see it from a distance of more than ten miles. The Jizhou army that was approaching was going faster and closer, and the heart became colder and colder. .

Finished!

It's all over!
And when they finally arrived at the foot of Tuqiu Mountain, what they saw was the top of the mountain that had turned into a white field.

In order to capture Fenggao, and then quickly attack Taishan County, Yuan Tan worked hard to collect all the food from Qinghe, Qijun, and Guang'an, which was enough for [-] troops to last three months. Ashes!

After the anger passed, panic and powerlessness filled the Jizhou army's body and mind.

Simpi, who hastily came to take orders, looked at the scene in front of him with a dazed expression for a while, and just now he came back to his senses, but fell into even greater distress.

He didn't know what to do with his army and horses, what to eat.
He didn't even know how to pass the news back.

After getting along with each other for a long time, Xin Pi also knows that Yuan Tan and his father have the same virtue, and they always like to blame others when they encounter problems.

It's just that the news still has to be passed back after all!

In the end, Xin Pi bit the bullet and asked another captain to go back to send a message, and he led people to chase after the so-called Xuzhou army who had just withdrawn not long ago and whose total number was close to [-].
Of course, this is just a wording. All the soldiers who were ordered to rescue this time traveled lightly, and only brought enough rations for three days. Not to mention that Simpi doesn't know where Wangzheng's troops are now. Even if they find them, they will catch up. The tens of thousands of troops may run out of rations by then, and there will be more troubles.

Simpi just wanted to wait a little later to return to the camp.

When the Jizhou cavalry galloped towards the barracks in disgrace, on the other side, the sentry cavalry sent by Chang Xi happily rode their horses and raised their whips.

Therefore, Chang Xi knew about Tu Qiushan's misfortune before Yuan Tan did.

Looking up to the sky and laughing wildly for a long time, Chang Xi immediately ordered to spread the two news to the whole city!
One, our reinforcements are here, the Xuzhou army is here!
[-]. The granary set up by the Jizhou people in the rear has been attacked by friendly troops and burned down!
After the news spread, the Fenggao people were very excited. After all, the people in Taishan County were well aware of military affairs. Considering that the enemy came to Mount Tai from Linzi, it was not suitable for transportation when they were far away. It is very likely that they have stored most of their military rations
Similarly, as one of the military wings established by Wang Zheng, there are already standards for how to deal with the enemy's invasion of the country. Changxi ordered to fortify the wall and clear the field as soon as he received the entry of Jizhou people. As long as the enemy cannot break through Fenggao, they will not May be supplemented in situ!
And what an army without rations represents, everyone in Fenggao City knows very well, no matter men, women, old or young!
The enemy has fallen into a huge crisis!
The enemy is likely to retreat without a fight!

It even fell into civil strife and collapsed directly because of lack of food!

This is not sensational or exaggerated. In the history of military strategists before the Han Dynasty, there was a precedent for a large army to be defeated overnight due to a mutiny.

"Don't be too optimistic!"

When the city fell into a sea of ​​joy, Chang Xi stood upside down, pretending to be calm and calm, and began to instruct the soldiers to take precautions, "The village is just a food storage point. It is impossible for the people of Jizhou to be so unwise. Store all the food there. There must still be a large amount of food accompanying the army in their camp, which will be enough for at least ten days and a half months!"

Seeing his Qu Shuai said this, although he looked righteous and stern, but the short beard under his lips was trembling constantly, and a few soldiers who knew him well around him suppressed a smile: "Qu Shuai, what you said is true!" , is enough for ten days and a half months, don't these northern barbarians consider the way out?"

"If things can't be done, go back to Qingzhou in despair, and you need food along the way to appease the morale of the army."

"Ok?"

Hearing his subordinates blatantly contradicting him, Chang Xi immediately rolled his eyes strangely and stared over.

But it was just a show, he was always very magnanimous when he was in a good mood, and these veterans knew it very well, but they were still laughing and joking, and everyone was fearless.

After pretending for a while, seeing that everyone was unmoved, Chang Xi let out a dry cough, glanced sideways at the most presumptuous soldier, and spat:

"How do you know that the next batch of food from the Jizhou Army won't arrive soon?"

"The state pastor said something very good before, do you know how to say it?"

"I don't know."

"As the saying goes, those who are arrogant in soldiers are defeated, and those who bully the enemy are killed. Is there any truth in the original words of Zhou Mu?"

"Makes sense, makes sense."

When Chang Xi raised the banner of Wangzheng, everyone dared not say anything, and they kept their promises.

They are Chang Xi's personal soldiers, so they have no scruples about their words and deeds, but Wang Zheng's personal soldiers treat them like gods. If they dare to show any disrespect, even if they are not malicious, this matter is big or small.

Now there are still standing on the top of this city, but there are many heavenly troops who are these fanatics.

"Hmph. It makes sense, as long as Zhou Mu sent aid to rescue us at the critical moment of attacking Beihai, if the situation was finally ruined because everyone underestimated the enemy, how could he have the face to be born in this world?

Chang Xi took Wang Zheng's words to teach everyone a lesson, and learned to pat the soldier's shoulder heavily:

"Quickly pass on my general order!"

"Fenggao City is ready to continue to fight. At the same time, let the sentry cavalry try to contact the friendly troops outside, and let them delay the transportation team of the Jizhou people at any cost!"

"Tell the reinforcements to the general that if he wins this battle, he will be the first to contribute, and I will definitely go to the state pastor to ask him for great credit!"

"Here!"

Seeing that everyone became obedient, Chang Xi was full of ambition, stroking his beard and looking around at everyone, and was about to continue to make a speech, when at this moment, a loud voice came from not far away.

"Qu Shuai, I have brought this guy here, do you want to kill him now?"

Chang Xi was startled when he heard the words, followed the prestige, and saw that the soldiers he had sent before had returned at this time, and he was still holding a scholar with an earthy face in his hand, whoever it was if it wasn't Miao Lin.

broken!

Chang Xi's heart skipped a beat, he didn't have time to think about it, when he shouted violently, he let himself clear first.

"Bold!"

"I asked you to invite Mr. Miao. Is that how you invited me?"

Immediately striding forward, he kicked away the bewildered-looking soldier first, then hurriedly helped Miao Lin up carefully, and patted the dust on his body by the way, very considerate and thoughtful.

"Sir, these subordinates of mine always don't understand human speech, they are as stupid as pigs and cows! Don't bother with them!"

Saying that, he gave a thumbs up to the shocked Miao Lin and said:
"Mr. predicts things like a god, you are really a fairy!"
