The Tuoba Niu Ren seems to have met an opponent.

Before this, he had never heard of Zhao Langjiang, and the scout gave very little information, which made him extremely lack of understanding of this person. In the entire Ming army, except for Yuwen Tianlu, who made him a little afraid, Tuoba Niu people never took other people seriously, even the turtle that shrank from the head of Dingbei King Xue Huai was no exception.

However, in the three consecutive days of attack, except for shooting more than a dozen crossbowmen on the other side, Tuoba Niu Ren did not get any advantage in Yinyang City. On the contrary, he lost nearly two thousand people.

Yinyang City is an ancient city, built according to the specifications of a military fortress. Over the past hundreds of years, countless wars have occurred in this city, but only once has the real attack on this city. The only time was due to internal strife in Yinyang City, someone opened the city gate to surrender.

Zhao Langjiang was not ordinary difficult to deal with. The Northern Zhou army sent several "negotiation" experts to verb and provoke. However, every time he approached two hundred steps outside the city wall, he was shot to death by a man in white, and he did not even give him a chance to swear. This made Tuoba Niu people wonder whether Zhao Langjiang had any connection with the turtle king Xue Huai.

Yinyang City has only 5,000 Yisong, and there are less than 20,000 troops to fight against the Western Army. The Northern Zhou army has tens of thousands of troops and horses that have accumulated strength, and has an absolute advantage in military strength. It is not that he has considered a strong attack, but the city walls are towering and with the advantage of geographical advantages, the crossbow can shoot 300 steps and arrows can shoot 150 steps. After several strong attacks, it has only been thirty steps away from the moat recently.

He is a great man from Tuoba and the God of War in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. For decades, he has been invincible in siege and siege. If Yuwen Tianlu guards the city, it is understandable if he retreats, but the other party is Zhao Langjiang, which makes him unbearable.

One general succeeds and thousands of bones are woven.

Famous generals endorse with blood and dry bones, rather than letting an unknown person step on the top.

Therefore, Tuoba Niu can only win, not retreat.

"It's time to make some changes." Tuoba Niu said humanely.

The change he made was waiting.

If more than 100,000 troops cannot be attacked, then use the siege tactic.

Now it is early autumn, and it is the time when the green and yellow food is not collected, the new grain has not yet been released, and the old grain is approaching. Yinyang City is mainly trade, and there is not much grain planted outside the city. If Yinyang Trading Road is controlled, within three months, the city will be starved to death and will be destroyed without attack.

However, there were also problems with the Northern Zhou army.

One hundred thousand soldiers, that is one hundred thousand mouths. The Northern Zhou army crossed 300 miles of Hengduan Mountain. When we came here, supply line supply was also a problem. Fortunately, his deputy general Mazda was personally responsible for the supply of grain and grass. In the past few days, he established a grain transport route from the Northern Zhou to Yinyang City.

While waiting, he had one more thing to do, which was to clean up the Eighteen City of Yinyang first. As long as he took down the other Eighteen City, it could greatly alleviate the supply problem of the Northern Zhou army.

Siege is not the best choice, but it is the most effective choice.

However, the Tuoba Niu people also understood that the Northern Zhou army was good at blitzkrieg, especially the cavalry had obvious advantages. The Tuoba Niu people also commanded operations, mainly frontal warfare, supplemented by various cavalry harassment, which made the opponents exhausted and then defeated one by one. The battle of besieging the city was not their specialty.

At this time, the deputy general reported, "Master, we captured six thousand soldiers and horses in the north of the city."

Tuoba Niu Ren was overjoyed when he heard this, "God really helped me!"

...

"No movement?"

Zhao Langjiang, Li Qingcheng and Baima Yicong, several generals of the Western Army stood at the top of the city and saw the Northern Zhou soldiers and horses starting to do fortifications, digging trenches, and setting up camp tents. They were obviously ready for a protracted war.

Li Xianzhong frowned and said, "Among them

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I'm afraid there are frauds. Tuoba Niu people are good at using surprise weapons, and they are afraid they are unwilling to fall into a protracted war."

"How long can the food and grass in the city last?"

Li Xianzhong said, "Since last year, Li Xiancheng has been stocking up food and grass in the city, all in the Liangping warehouse in Baihufang. I counted it yesterday and had a total of 40,000 stones, each with half a kilogram per day. I could have lasted for three months, but now there are 20,000 more Western troops in the city, and I am afraid it will last for up to fifty days."

Zhao Langjiang said, "In that case, we have to thank Li Xiancheng."

I'm afraid Li Xiancheng didn't expect that the food and grass he used to rebel and hoard the rice prices soared, which caused the price of rice to rise, which caused the anger of heaven and people, but under the current situation, it helped a lot.

Zhao Langjiang said again, "It doesn't take fifty days, at most thirty days, the Northern Zhou Dynasty will withdraw its troops."

Li Qingcheng said in surprise, "How come you are so sure?"

Zhao Langjiang did not answer.

In the mountain stream outside Yinyang City, Yuwen Tianlu talked with him for an hour and told him the whole plan. What he had to do was to hold Tuoba Niu Ren, and even if he could not defeat him, he would still put him in the mud.

After saying this, Yuwen Tianlu asked him to make a choice.

He killed him and avenged the people of Dingzhou.

It is better to obey the arrangements and protect the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Lianjiang once struggled, but in the end reason defeated emotions, and he chose the latter.

Yuwen Tianlu is an enemy, but he is a hero and should not die so cowardly.

If you want to take revenge and take advantage of others' danger, it is not Zhao Langjiang's character. He wants to defeat him in a dignified manner in martial arts. What's more, if the situation is critical today, he is a soldier and must obey orders.

Everything was carried out as arranged by Yuwen Tianlu.

Zhao Langjiang regained Yinyang City and became the acting city lord.

Sixty thousand people in Yinyang and twenty thousand lives of the Western Expedition Army were all on his shoulders, and he felt the pressure. His life and his life will be closely linked to this city.

When he was a guerrilla general, he only needed to execute orders and fight bravely to kill the enemy. When he wandered around the world, he fed his whole family and was not hungry. But here, he had to be responsible for every Yinyang people and the Ming Dynasty's Western Army.

At this time, Yi Yicheng came to Li Xianzhong and leaned over and whispered.

Li Xianzhong was furious when he heard this. He looked at Zhao Langjiang and stopped talking.

Zhao Langjiang noticed it and said, "General Li said it just right."

Li Xianzhong said, "After the Western Army entered the city, it lacked restrictions. It caused a lot of trouble in the city these days. Last night, several soldiers forcibly broke into the house and impolite the woman in the house. They were arrested by the people who came to hear the news. Now nearly a hundred people surrounded Baihufang to ask for people."

Zhao Langjiang's face turned gloomy when he heard this.

In the past few days, he resisted the Northern Zhou siege and was mainly composed of Baima Yicong. On the way to escape, General Liang Yuanzhi was captured, and many of the squads were in chaos. In the past two days, he asked three deputy generals Bao Daxing, Lu Yuanshan and Liu Quanmao to reorganize the Western Army, but he did not expect that this incident happened.

Now Yinyang is surrounded, and the people are worried about being frightened. If the people are resentful because of the Western Expedition, I am afraid that Yinyang City will be in chaos before the Tuoba Niu people take action.

Zhao Langjiang said, "Take me to have a look."

When Zhao Langjiang and others arrived at Baihufang, they saw nearly a hundred Ming soldiers holding weapons and surrounding a civilian house. Outside the door, more than a dozen white horses confronted him with crossbow arrows. The three Western troops were tied up with rags in their mouths and covered in blood. They were obviously beaten.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"Take the person over quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being blind!"

"You are still soldiers, and you actually did such a thing that is worse than beasts. If you don't deal with these three people, where is our Yinyang people?"

"I still have the face. Without our Ming soldiers guarding, this Yinyang City may have been broken by the Northern Zhou Dynasty and no grass will grow!"

"You are shameless. If we hadn't been to our White Horse, you would have probably become the dead souls of Tuoba Niu people!"

Both sides were talking and angry.

Some people shouted, "Kill them!"

One person raised the stone and was about to smash the head of the tied man. Seeing this, Ming Jun left the man and pointed the arrow at the man and shot it with a whoosh.

The other dozen white horses also pressed the crossbow spring.

Whoosh swish swish swish!

More than a dozen crossbow arrows shot towards the Western Army.

Seeing that someone was about to die, a figure flashed in front of everyone, and his hands were like picking melons, picking arrows from both sides one by one.

Zhao Langjiang threw the arrows on the ground and said sternly, "Stop!"

With this angry shout, he used some true energy, which shocked everyone's mind and did not dare to move. After seeing the person clearly, Bai Ma Yicong knelt down one after another, "I've seen the city lord!"

The Western Army was stunned and at a loss.

He killed Li Xiancheng and led Baima Yi to attack the Northern Zhou army. In the past few days, Zhao Langjiang has established a high prestige in the hearts of the people of Yinyang and the military. As soon as he appeared, everyone put down their weapons.

When a tied Ming army saw everyone, they shouted to Bao Daxing, "Uncle, save me!"

This man's surname is Bao Shunyi, and he is the nephew of Bao Daxing, the leader of the Feng camp. Relying on Bao Daxing's relationship, he was domineering in the army and was very arrogant. After entering Yinyang, he was not a restless man. He went out to drink with two Western troops. He met a woman in the store and was so lustful that he had an idea.

The three of them were about to commit violence, but the people came to hear the news and started to fight. The people in Yinyang practiced martial arts and became popular. The other party was a large number of people and powerful. The three of them were defeated and were tied up.

Bao Daxing's face was gloomy. He walked forward, slapped him casually, and cursed, "Are you going to commit suicide?"

The man said, "Why are you hitting me?"

Bao Daxing whispered, "Bastard, I beat you to save you, shut up." He came to Zhao Langjiang and pleaded in a low voice, "General Zhao, this person is my nephew. He lacks control on weekdays and even makes a big mistake. For the sake of our colleagues, please give it a break."

Zhao Langjiang ignored him and came to Bao Shunyi and asked, "How should we deal with it if we harass the people for no reason and rape women without reason?"

Bao Shunyi raised his head and said, "How do I know?"

Zhao Langjiang asked the other two again, "You guys say?"

The two men were so shocked that their faces were pale and their teeth were trembling. "Dang...dang...dang..." could not speak.

"Chief Officer!"

The official said, "According to military law, we should be killed."

"Do you have something to say?"

Bao Shunyi said, "Don't we go in? If we don't go in, we will be at most attempted to fight!"

Bao Daxing begged, "General Zhao, the three of them violated military law and should be killed, but now the enemy is in front of him. I think that the three of them are the first offense and have failed. It is better to let them make meritorious contributions and go outside the city to kill the enemy!" As he said that, he winked at Bao Shunyi.

Bao Shunyi said, "Yes, yes! I know I am wrong. As long as the general gives me a chance, I will take the head of Tuoba Niu Ren to apologize!"
