Chapter 29: Pulling a Hair and Moving the Whole Body (Continued)

In the evening, the setting sun was as bloody as the sky. On the east side of the outer wall of Taicheng, countless Liang soldiers rushed up like a tide and fought with the rebels guarding Tushan.

On the flat ground on the east side of Tushan, the rebels like tides launched a charge towards the Liang army camp and launched a hand-to-hand battle with the Liang army soldiers guarding the forest.

The fierce battle lasted for two days and two nights, attacking and defending mountains, attacking and defending the mountains, and the two sides launched a bloody battle around the earthen mountains and camps.

Once the Liang army took down Tushan, they would lean against the outer wall of Taicheng. Then they would break the outer wall and attack the Eastern Palace, which was close to Taicheng.

Therefore, the Liang army tried its best to attack Tushan, and the rebels also tried their best to defend Tushan, and sent brave men to attack Liang's camps and cut off their retreat.

Arrows were like rain, and shouts were shaking the sky. In the midst of a melee, soldiers from the Liang army camp and the Tushan Mountains worked hard to build a high platform. Many soldiers were shot in many arrows and injured, but insisted on their work.

Zhang Ying, wearing armor, braved his arrows and directed the Dongye Camp to build a high platform on the spot. The rising high platforms soon reached the top.

Then the enemy was shot into a hedgehog, fell to the ground and died. Then someone went up and kept firing arrows at the rebel soldiers around him, constantly shooting at the targets, and the losses of both sides increased rapidly.

The rebels knew that the earth could not be lost, so they sent a large number of troops to assist in the war, and even drove many people to the battlefield.

The soldiers of Liang's army who were red-eyed no longer cared about so many. In their eyes, the people who were attacking their own camps were the enemies, and they would shoot arrows when they should.

On the battlefield, there were endless crying and howling.

In the camp, Wang Sengbian, the commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Army who was supervising the battle on the spot, had a very clear face. Facing the generals who came to ask for help, there were only two words: "Hold on!"

Seeing the enemy soldiers rushing towards the north and south sides of the camp, and the soldiers on his side had already fought from the early morning to now, and there was no extra force to mobilize them, Wang Sengbian thought of retreating.

But at this point, it is impossible to retreat. A few people can run away, but most people cannot. As long as he retreats, the entire army will be defeated.

Thinking of this, Wang Sengbian looked south of the camp, and there, Xiao Si, the prince of the King of Poyang, was also fighting under the command.

When the war reaches this point, I can only grit my teeth and hold on. Perhaps the other party will not be able to withstand it first.

Looking at the setting sun and the earthen mountains, Wang Sengbian thought of the scenes when the prince of Xiangdong "flying" into the sky and flying towards Taicheng that day, he cursed Li Li in his heart, cursing that this hateful boy would not die well.

Wang Sengbian knew that the king had already hated the prince because he hated the princess, but at least the prince could not have any trouble now, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the King of Xiangdong.

The King of Xiangdong has always been alienated from military men and close to literati. Wang Sengbian knew very well about his personality and personality. Therefore, if something happened to the prince, they would have to take off even if they did not die.

However, the prince had already entered Taicheng, and it was useless to regret it. Although Wang Sengbian then attacked the prince's camp of Poyang, he had to compromise in the end when facing the smiling Xiao Si.

Regardless of the intention of the truce, he joined forces with Xiao Si and fought forward to attack Taicheng in order to rescue the siege as soon as possible.

It would be impossible not to do this, because Wang Sengbian believed that the flying thing would enter Taicheng, and the emperor and the crown prince would have a way out. After the account was settled, no one could afford to eat, so he could no longer stand by.

Now, the Tushan must be taken down, and the subsequent battle will be easy to fight.

But there are too many enemies, as if they are endless. It seems that they are trying their best to prevent them from approaching Taicheng.

The eldest son Wang Yi ran over with blood, with several arrows inserted into his armor, and said anxiously: "Father! The north side is almost unable to withstand it. The soldiers are suffering heavy casualties and those who are alive are almost exhausted!"

"You, come with the Lord!" Wang Sengbian asked the guards beside him to follow Wang Yan to "block the mouth". Before Wang Yan could walk out a few steps, he heard shouts coming from the north.

The noise became louder and louder, and there were cheers, but the enemy was cheering and rushing into the camp.

Wang Ying's face turned pale, and she looked at her father. Wang Sengbian stared at her eyes widened: "Go, drive them out, otherwise you will die there!"

"yes!"

Wang Ying looked determined and rushed north with people. The cheers from the north made many Liang soldiers frightened.

They fought for two days and nights. Although they had a rest in the middle, they were already tired and sleepy. Once they were defeated, they had no strength to escape.

Seeing that the battle was urgent, Wang Ying quickly rushed north with his people and saw a tide of enemy soldiers pouring in at the entrance of the camp from afar.

There are many people on the other side and few people on the one hand. It seems that they are going to be covered with a horse.

Wang Ying was not afraid of death, and took the left and right to gather the defeated troops and organized defense on the spot, but heard the sound of horns in the east. He turned around and saw that under the afterglow of the sunset, many flags were flying between the camp passages on his side, coming towards this side.

He could see clearly: it was the banner of King Shaoling, and it was King Shaoling who sent troops to reinforce!

"Reinforcements are coming! King Shaoling has sent reinforcements!!"

Wang Ying shouted loudly, and the others followed, cheering sounded like a tide, and the soldiers of King Shaoling who came to the critical moment were then put into battle.

The thrust appeared in the north of the camp gradually expanded, and more enemy soldiers rushed in. However, the Liang army had reinforcements and morale was greatly boosted.

The son of King Shaoling, Xiao Que, the Marquis of Yong'an, led the way and rushed into the enemy with his elite troops.

Xiao Que was brave and good at fighting. Since he was in charge of the king, he had to fight first in every battle. Although he was defeated repeatedly, he had been defeated repeatedly. At this time, together with the remaining troops of Wang Yan's troops, he worked hard to "block the mouth".

The rebels who broke into the camp gradually could not stand it and were driven out by the Liang army. The battle situation returned to a stalemate, and both sides were exhausted.

There was another horn sound, but a new batch of reinforcements from the Liang army arrived and came along the camp passage.

The number of soldiers and horses surging in the turmoil was large, and under the banner of "Liu", the Grand Governor Liu Zhongli sent his brother Liu Jingli to lead the army to reinforce and join the battle.

As the commander of the King's Alliance, Liu Zhongli has been avoiding war for several months and has now sent troops to assist the Prince of Poyang and the Jingzhou Army in the battle.

Some other generals who were waiting and watching also made up their minds and brought their troops to assist in the war.

Reinforcements followed one after another, and the morale of the Liang army soldiers soared, while the rebel troops, which had been struggling for a long time, were in chaos when they saw this.

The defeat began to appear in different places and then spread. The soldiers could not fight with the Liang army, whose morale was high. The fear overwhelmed the courage, and more and more people turned around and ran away.

The victory and defeat were decided. Xiao Si, the prince of the Poyang King, who brought the guards to the battle, was very excited to see that he was about to take advantage of the victory. Thinking that Li Li's plan to "touch his whole body" was indeed successful, he almost cheered.

You are such a crazy strategy that can be thought of and implemented successfully. You are such a talented person!

On the other hand, Hou Jing, who was supervising the battle on the spot, listened to Liang Jun's cheers of "resolute victory" and had a gray face.

It was obvious that he was about to win, why did other generals who had been avoiding the war come to reinforce?

Once the Liang army unit work together, they will have no chance of winning.

But, how could this happen?

The Liang army's divisions did not subordinate each other. Although there was the nominal commander-in-chief (main commander) Liu Zhongli, Liu Zhongli passively avoided the war, and each division fought on its own and could not form a joint force, so it was not worth worrying.

So much so that he surrounded Taicheng for several months, and the royal army could not even cross the Qinhuai River and Qingxi River.

The result is now...

What the hell is going on?

Hou Jing looked at the gradually lost Tushan in front of him and did not say a word. However, he had not lost yet, and there was still a chance!

Thinking of this, Hou Jing turned around and looked at Taicheng on the west side.

Victory and defeat will be clear tonight!
Chapter completed!
