Guo was at the corner of the intersection of Wei River and Wei River. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was a small state of vassals named Guo State. After King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang, the two younger brothers of King Wen of Zhou were respectively named Dong, the king of Xiguo State, Guo Zhong was granted Dongguo, and the area of ​​Xishui in Xingyang, and Guo Shu was granted Xiguo. This place was the land of Guo City. At that time, the two Guos played the role of barriers on both sides of the Zhou royal family.

Thousands of years have passed, and things here have changed. Tucheng has long been renovated, the address has been changed, and Guocheng has been rebuilt, which has been rebuilt as a military important place in Fufeng County.

Tuoba Rui, Sima Qiu, and Chen Lu, three surrendered generals, took the six thousand troops counted by Hou Junji, wearing Tang army robes, pretending to be embarrassed, and fled to the bank of the Wei River.

There are spare ships and rafts by the river, ropes across the river, etc., and cross the river quickly.

When the soldiers of the patrol battalion saw this situation, they immediately questioned him loudly.

"I am the deputy general of Chen Cang defending the city, Tuoba Rui, Sima Qiu, General Chen Lu, and Chen Cang City was attacked and broken. We failed to fight hard and could not save us. We had to abandon the city and flee and cross the river."

The soldiers on the other side obviously had not received any news that Chen Cang had broken up overnight, because the river bank had been blocked by Hou Junji, and ambushed were set up outside the city to the river bank. Those who escaped secretly at night had been ambushed, and the news was still kept confidential.

"It's really General Tuoba!" A captain had seen these generals, so when the ship approached, the other party's figure and face could be seen.

"The three generals have withdrawn their troops and they can't make any mistakes. Let them go immediately and pick up Chen Cang's soldiers to land."

At this time, the sound of horse hooves and shouting for killing came from behind the river bank. Hou Junji led his troops to cover up and gathered on the river bank together. He even fired a round of arrows, but the distance was far apart, and most of them shot into the river water, but they were quite good.

After Tuoba Rui landed, he shouted to the river bank garrison commander: "We must immediately lead our troops into Guocheng. First, we report to General Zhou Qing to strengthen our defense. Second, our soldiers fought for a night, exhausted and very hungry, and they must enter the city to bandage the wounds and replenish their energy."

When the Duwei heard General Tuoba’s statement that it was reasonable, he undoubtedly nodded and agreed and ordered the release.

Sima Qiu and Chen Lu looked at each other, nodded slightly, and showed a feeling of relief on his face. After passing this level and entering the city, everything would be done as planned.

Guocheng is made of bluestone, which is simple and heavy. On the city tower, Zhou Qing and his generals looked down at the people below.

"General Zhou, it's us!"

Zhou Qing, Tuoba Rui, Sima Qiu, Chen Lu and others have met each other, after all, they are just a river apart. After taking office, the generals of the two cities have met each other.

"Open the city gate!"

If a general surrenders, he will be questioned. All three deputy generals gathered to escape, and their suspicion was greatly reduced. Unexpectedly, the three of them would turn against each other at the same time.

Tuoba Rui, Sima Qiu, and Chen Lu entered the city, and the soldiers were also taken into the city and placed them in a schoolyard within the city gate. Then some rice and meat were needed to start making rice and replenish their energy.

"Where is General Meng?"

"Oh, General Meng was shot by a cold arrow while breaking through the siege, fell off his horse, and was trampled to death by the rioters. We all attacked each other and agreed to gather on the riverside before we learned the news." Sima Qiu said sadly.

Zhou Qing knew that Meng Chao was the son-in-law of the Li family and was somewhat involved in the royal relatives. Now he died in battle, but the deputy generals all escaped, fearing that they would not escape the military order when they returned.

"You three are afraid that when you meet the prince, you will lose your face. The commander died and the city will be lost. According to military rules, this crime is quite serious."

Tuoba Rui sighed: "That's right, so we have no shame to reply to the court. We just want to station in Guocheng, assist General Zhou in defending Guocheng, and make meritorious contributions!"

Chen Lu took the opportunity to say, "General Zhou, it's not that we are incompetent, but that the Dahua army is strong and powerful, and it's really hard to guard against. We are not prepared enough to cause attacks and bombardment. However, we have suffered losses and have some experience to assist General Zhou and defend this city."

Zhou Qing looked solemn on his face. He was also worried when he heard the three of them emphasizing the power of the Dahua Army so much that he was unsure. Those opponents who were enemies with Dahua were wiped out. Now it was his turn to block the Northwest Dahua Army alone, so he was naturally a little worried.

He just scared the three of them, but in fact he had this purpose, to conquer himself, let them work for themselves, obey him, and help him defend the city.

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "Okay, our fate is closely related at present. I won't speak the words of heretics. Only by sharing the same hatred of the enemy can you have a chance of victory. When you rest here, you will soon confront the Dahua Army again."

The three generals agreed at the same time, and felt relieved, and finally got away.

On the other side of the Li River, Hou Junji launched a river crossing battle, but there were thousands of Tang troops on the other side. With the help of the advantage of geographical advantages, he blocked several attacks on the beach.

As night fell, Lai Hu'er landed from Wuzhangyuan and led his troops to the rear of Guocheng.

After sending a signal outside the city, Tuoba Rui and others led their troops to launch a sneak attack. Each soldier wrapped his left arm in a white scarf and rushed towards the gate of Guocheng.

"kill--"

In the wind and darkness, the sound of killing shook the sky. The guards of the Tang army did not expect that someone suddenly turned against him in the city and attacked their city gate.

Puff puff puff!

The sword light slashed and the head rolled. These elite Dahua soldiers were brave and powerful and lethal.

"City Gate!"

All of these elite Dahua soldiers rushed to the West City Gate, concentrating their troops and making sharp edges.

Dangdangdang——

The weapons confronted each other and fought to the sky, and they charged in batches and fell in batches, but the elite soldiers were like tigers and wolves, and they were still brave enough to move forward. Several levels were torn apart and the West City Gate was opened.

"Run!"

The nursery outside the city led the army and took the opportunity to attack the city gate, just like a river breaking a dam, and it was out of control.

Zhou Qing heard the sound of fighting and walked out of the Baihu Hall of Jieshuai in the city. When he heard the sound of fighting at the city gate, his face changed drastically. When a scout rushed over to report, Tuoba and others turned against the mutiny. The city gate was lost. The news of the Dahua army's attack on the city was trembling and he sat on the ground.

"Tuoba, Sima and others turned against each other, and the general was killed. Guocheng is over!" Zhou Qing shouted loudly, sad and sad.
Chapter completed!
