The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 459 The Tragic He Zongxian (Part [-])
"The savages of the Tang Dynasty are really insidious and cunning. I never thought that they would secretly dig so many traps under the cover of piled up mountains of earth." Zhou Qianya said angrily after returning to the city.

"Fortunately, General Zhou reacted in time and retreated to the city. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous." Xiao Yang said to Zhou Qianya.

"What should I do now? Is it possible that I can only watch them pile up the earth mountain. If the earth mountain is successfully piled up, Jili City will also be in jeopardy." Zhou Qianya said helplessly to Xiao Yang.

"I don't know if General Zhou found out that the He Zongxian of yesterday was also wearing a white robe. But I feel that He Zongxian of today is not alone." Xiao Yang said to Zhou Qianya.

"When you say that, I also remembered that He Zongxian, who was wearing a white robe yesterday, stood far away. It gives people a feeling of greed for life and fear of death."

"Today, He Zongxian, who is wearing a white robe, always strives to be the first in every battle, and his martial arts are very strong. Especially his flying knife is even more magical." Zhou Qianya nodded and said.

It is precisely because Zhou Qianya knows that Xue Rengui's throwing knife is powerful.That's why there was no time when Xue Rengui showed his flaws.He chased and beat Xue Rengui to death.

"Since that's the case, we just need to see the timing. As long as that He Zongxian from yesterday appears, our army can send troops out of the city to fight against him."

"If today's He Zongxian came, then we can only close the city gates and stick to the city." Xiao Yang said after thinking about it.

……

Xue Rengui has been busy for a whole day, and the mountain of earth has piled up to a certain height.But there is still a long way to go before it can be used.

After Xue Rengui returned to the camp, he went to the vanguard tent, saluted Zhang Shigui first, and then said, "General Vanguard, the accumulation of this mountain cannot stop. I hope the general can send people to build it day and night."

"I didn't expect you to have such a mind. As long as our army piles up this mountain of earth, it will be easy to take down Jili City." Zhang Shigui said with a big laugh.

"Xue Li, you can take people back to rest. We will leave the matter of piling up the mountain to us." He Zongxian said to Xue Rengui.

How could Xue Rengui not know, this and He Zongxian wanted to fight for merit again.But Xue Rengui has long been used to it.

What's more, Xue Rengui didn't care at all, who would get the credit for this cross-sea conquest.Because of the presence of King Wei, no matter who falls on him, he will eventually return to himself.

Looking at Xue Rengui's retreating figure, Zhang Shigui said to He Zongxian: "What are you trying to do, maybe you think you are better than Xue Rengui."

"Father-in-law, why should you be angry? My son-in-law knows that he is no match for Xue Rengui. But in the past two days, Marshal Yuchi and the emperor's general arrived with an army."

"If they see Xue Rengui at that time, I'm afraid it will not be a good thing for father-in-law. That's why my son-in-law will prepare to pile up the earth mountain instead of Xue Rengui." He Zongxian said.

Hearing He Zongxian's words, Zhang Shigui couldn't help being surprised.Fortunately, He Zongxian reminded himself, otherwise he might cause trouble.

"The son-in-law is far-sighted. If that's the case, you will replace Xue Rengui tomorrow. Now that Xue Rengui has laid the foundation, there will be no danger." Zhang Shigui said after thinking about it.

That night, Zhang Shigui sent another army, led by his four sons.Mountains of dirt piled up overnight.

This made Xiao Yang's plan to destroy Tushan by taking advantage of the night to fail.He didn't expect that Tang Jun would stay around the clock.

It's not that he didn't think about sending troops in the dark to deal a fatal blow to Tang Jun.But in the end Xiao Yang gave up on this idea.

Because once the Tang army sets up an ambush, those who go out will never want to come back.After all, the vision at night is not very wide.

Even if someone lays an ambush, it will be difficult for him to find out.So Xiao Yang had no choice but to give up this idea helplessly.

So the four Zhang Zhilong brothers went very smoothly this night.The height of the earth mountain has also increased to a certain extent.

In the early morning of the next day, He Zongxian put on his helmet, armor and burqa, and rode his own white horse, holding Fang Tian's painted halberd.The four Zhang Zhilong brothers were replaced.

I saw He Zongxian, standing there flaunting his might, commanding the soldiers in a serious manner.However, he was discovered by Zhou Qianya in the city.

"General Xiao, if I'm not mistaken, today's white-robed He Zongxian is definitely not the same person as yesterday."

"General Zhou is right. It's not just He Zongxian in the white robe, it's not the He Zongxian from yesterday. Even this Tang army is not the Tang army from yesterday." Xiao Yang nodded and said.

"In that case, let me take someone out to meet this fake He Zongxian." After Zhou Qianya finished speaking, he turned and went down the city wall.

At the same time, Xiao Yang commanded the catapult and started a frenzied attack on the Tang army who piled up the mountain.Boulders and kerosene poured down the city uninterruptedly.

All of a sudden, the troops led by He Zongxian were beaten so badly that they couldn't even raise their heads.This frightened He Zongxian a lot.

I couldn't help but mutter to myself: "It's really strange, why every time I lead the troops to fight, I encounter so many troubles."

However, with the protection of this giant wooden cart, it did not cause substantial damage to Tang Jun.This also made He Zongxian feel at ease a lot.

But at this moment, the gate of Jili City suddenly opened.Zhou Tianya came out with a cavalry.

The 3000 troops that Zhou Tianya brought this time were Qing Yishui's cavalry.So the speed was astonishing, and he was killed in front of Tang Jun in a short time.

He Zongxian hurriedly commanded the troops to start the battle.But what He Zongxian brought were all infantry, and in front of the cavalry, they were really not enough for others.

With just one penetration, He Zongxian was killed in pieces.And He Zongxian himself did not dare to fight Zhou Qianya.

I saw him hiding behind the army, constantly directing the soldiers to charge upwards.It is hoped that these three thousand cavalry can be left behind by using the crowd tactics.

At the same time, Zhang Shigui also received the report.Did he know what his son-in-law was doing, and hurriedly mobilized his troops to prepare for the battle.

Zhou Qianya's real purpose was not to fight Tang Jun.It's about destroying those giant wooden carts.As long as these giant protective wooden vehicles are destroyed, his mission will be considered complete.

Although the top of the wooden cart is protected by sand and soil, this makes them no longer afraid of fire attack.But there was no such protection at the bottom, so it naturally became the target of Zhou Qianya's attack.

Of the three thousand cavalry brought out by Zhou Tianya, each of them carried several jars of kerosene on their horses.When they approached the giant wooden cart, they threw out the kerosene jar in their hands.

After completing the task, the three thousand cavalry quickly withdrew from the battlefield again.The moment Zhou Tianya withdrew from the battlefield, several fireballs flew in the sky again.
