Chapter 119 The Battle of Fengzhou City

After the discussion, Zhao Jiuxiao returned to the capital, summoned 70 troops, and hurried to Fengzhou City.

At the same time, Gongsun Wuji, Sima You, and Xuanyuanfeng also disguised themselves as ordinary people and sneaked into the territory of Xuantie Kingdom to pay attention to the enemy's movements.

Ten days later, Zhao Jiuxiao's food and 70 troops all arrived outside Fengzhou City.

In front of you is a city built near a high mountain.

The main route of climbing the mountain is firmly controlled by it.

Surrounded by green hills, the scenery of the whole city is also very good.

But Zhao Jiuxiao's mind is not on this.

Just as he led the army to the destination, Situ Ling, the guard of Fengzhou City, had already come out of the city to greet him.

I saw the general wearing light green armor, holding a long spear in his hand, carrying a crossbow bolt on his back, and a smiling face, even in a calm state.

After seeing Zhao Jiuxiao, Situ Ling got off his horse, cupped his hands and said, "The final general will see General Zhao."

Zhao Jiuxiao waved his hand: "General Situ, there is no need to be polite. Have you seen the letter I wrote to you?"

Situ Ling smiled wryly: "Of course I saw it. The last general has been guarding the border for many years, and the largest number of enemy troops he saw was only more than a hundred thousand horses. But this time the Xuantie Kingdom will send hundreds of thousands of troops. It really makes the last general uncomfortable. I can't believe it."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Murong Kuang fell into my plan and is angry. He will definitely attack in a big way. General Situ shouldn't be surprised."

Situ Ling cupped his hands and said, "General Zhao, the last general has an idea, but I don't know if the general agrees."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Tell me, I'm all ears."

Situ Ling stepped forward and said in a low voice: "General Zhao, the last general thinks that when the enemy is attacking the city, let the last general lead a group of troops, pretend to be the enemy's soldiers, sneak into the enemy's camp, and take advantage of the chaos to replace them." Flags, let the enemy mistakenly believe that the camp is lost, and the army's morale is in chaos."

Zhao Jiuxiao smiled; "General Situ's plan is not bad."

Situ Ling cupped his hands and said, "The general is not good at deploying defensive formations, but he still has the ability."

Zhao Jiuxiao also said at this time: "General Situ, I will carefully consider your opinion. After investigating the enemy's movements, I will give you an answer. How about it?"

Situ Ling nodded: "General Zhao is really open to all rivers and rivers, and has a broad mind!"

Zhao Jiuxiao was delighted: "Thank you, General Situ, for your compliment."

After speaking, he led the army into Fengzhou City.

After resting here for a few days, Gongsun Wuji and others returned to Zhao Jiuxiao.

I saw them travel-stained, dirty from top to bottom.

After brushing off the dust from his body, Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "General Zhao, I have found out that it is Zhuge Mao and Duan Binghun who came to attack this time."

"Zhuge Mao led an army of 60 troops, and Duan Binghun's army was 50. Duan Binghun has already advanced towards Youzhou City, and will arrive outside the city in a few days. Zhuge Mao will then arrive at Fengzhou City."

Zhao Jiuxiao was lost in thought: "From this point of view, Youzhou City is also somewhat dangerous."

Gongsun Wuji: "Don't worry, General Zhao, as long as General Hong can persist for more than ten days, after our army defeats Zhuge Mao's army, then turn around and attack Duan Binghun."

Zhao Jiuxiao asked: "Do you think General Hong can do it?"

Gongsun Wuji: "Based on the amount of food and grass in Youzhou City and General Hong's tactics, there should be no problem."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Okay, I'll write a letter now, asking General Hong to hold on, and save him after I defeat Zhuge Mao."

Gongsun Wuji: "General Zhao has a high opinion."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Jiuxiao took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote a letter to Hong Taishan, and the flying pigeon passed the letter to Hong Taishan.

After receiving this letter, Hong Taishan was naturally a little helpless.

However, when he thought of the current situation, he also accepted this and prepared to resist with all his strength.

On the other hand, Zhuge Mao's 60 troops also arrived outside Fengzhou City.

Looking at the black ocean outside, Situ Ling was stunned: "The Xuantie Kingdom dispatched such a force, it's really menacing."

Standing at the top of the city, Zhao Jiuxiao scanned the enemy army carefully, and found that there were 20 Xuanjia soldiers, 20 tiger and leopard cavalry, and 20 crossbowmen, all of which were the elite forces of the Xuantie Kingdom.

However, he has tens of thousands of artillerymen and 30 archers, enough to suppress the enemy with fierce firepower, plus 25 cavalry and 15 infantry, it is more than enough.

Zhao Jiuxiao also smiled slightly: "General Situ, the strategy you mentioned to me earlier can be implemented. Once the enemy attacks, you will follow the plan."

Situ Ling smiled and said, "Okay."

However, when he said this, he was still a little apprehensive.

After all, the number of enemy troops is 60, which is by no means easy.

At this moment, an interface also appeared in front of Zhao Jiuxiao.

【Wanjian Returns to the Sect】

Training requirements: Defeat Zhuge Spear's army.

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded secretly, ready.

Zhuge Mao came to the outside of the city and shouted: "General Situ, if you know what's going on, open the city and surrender, lest I fight in and there will be no grass growing in the city!"

Holding a halberd in his hand, he has a stout figure, but he has a slender face and a pair of eagle eyes, which make people feel fearful.

At this time, he was also very proud, playing with the weapon in his hand while waiting for the other party's reply.

Zhao Jiuxiao hid in the dark and watched without showing his face, so that the enemy would not pay too much attention to him.

But Situ Ling stood there and laughed loudly: "General Zhuge, your strength is nothing more than that. I only have 8 horses, but you have 60. No matter what, you are invincible."

Zhuge Mao sneered: "Winners and losers, since ancient times, you actually have the heart to do this with me. I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, and stop being obsessed with obsession."

After speaking, he let the army set up camp, take a good rest, and prepare to attack.

Zhao Jiuxiao didn't neglect either, and at the same time let the soldiers recharge their batteries.

Only Situ Ling's men were ready to sneak into the enemy camp.

Early the next morning, Zhuge Spear launched an attack.

20 tiger and leopard cavalry attacked the south gate and north gate of Fengzhou City at the same time, launching a fierce attack.

The crossbowmen even fired ten thousand arrows at the top of the city.

The Xuanjia soldiers formed a phalanx and blocked the crossbowmen with large shields.

Zhao Jiuxiao also gave an order at this time to let the archers and artillerymen shoot together.

"Boom!" Cannonballs and sharp arrows fell one after another, shooting at the enemy.

However, because of its condescending position and fierce firepower, Zhao Jiuxiao's troops quickly gained the upper hand.

Many Xuanjia soldiers were killed, and crossbowmen were also pierced by sharp arrows.

At the same time, some archers on the city wall were also shot.

In front of the city gate, Zhao Jiuxiao's cavalry and infantry stopped the enemy, preventing them from breaking through the city gate.

For a while, the two sides fought fiercely.

And Situ Ling, who had been prepared for a long time, led the dressed soldiers into the enemy's camp taking advantage of the chaos.

Because they were in the shape of enemy soldiers, under the chaos, they did not receive much suspicion.

But as soon as he rushed in, Situ Ling took out the crossbow arrows and ordered the soldiers to change the battle flags while shooting.

Soon, all the flags in Zhuge Mao's camp were replaced.

This scene was also seen by the soldiers fighting ahead.

The morale of the Xuantie Kingdom army dropped instantly, and they were a little at a loss.
