Unlike King Zuo Xian who was furious, there was joy in Dingxiang City. Due to the arrival of reinforcements, the entire Dingxiang City was as jubilant as a festival.
Especially at night, another 120,000 people arrived, which made the soldiers in Dingxiang City go crazy.
With so many soldiers and horses, Dingxiang City is not just a simple guard, they can also go out to fight the Western Turks.
After all, after these days of fighting, the Western Turks' army has suffered a lot of losses. According to calculations, there are only more than 200,000 people, not much more than their men and horses.
What's more, the Western Turks' army is exhausted after days of siege, but their reinforcements have high morale and high fighting spirit. In such a battle, the Western Turks' army may not be able to defeat them.
Moreover, the arrival of reinforcements also brought many wooden lumps and ten artillery pieces, which greatly improved the strength of Dingxiang City.
Dingxiang City with twenty artillery pieces is like an iron wall. Even if the Western Turks have an army of 400,000 to attack the city again, Li Jing will not be afraid. The power of the artillery is terrifying.
In the city lord's palace in Dingxiang City, all the generals gathered together, mostly to welcome Zheng Rentai's arrival and to cleanse him of his troubles.
The scene was very lively, but there was no alcohol. Drinking was not allowed during the march. Of course, good wine and food were allowed. For so many days, the generals also did not have a good meal. Most of them just gnawed like the soldiers. Cold steamed buns, big cakes to satisfy hunger, and a sip of cold water when thirsty. How can we enjoy such a big meal like today?
After drinking and eating, everyone did not disperse, but stood in front of a sand table to discuss tomorrow's battle.
It wasn't until late at night that everyone dispersed to rest and prepare themselves for tomorrow's battle.
King Zuo Xian didn't know yet that the reinforcements from Dingxiang City had arrived. If he had known about it, he might not have stayed here anymore, but would have chosen to retreat.
It's just that it's impossible for him to know such news, and he is still dreaming about taking down Dingxiang City in a battle tomorrow.
At dawn, whether it was Dingxiang City or the Western Turks' military camp, the soldiers got up early and prepared for a new battle. However, compared with the high morale of Dingxiang City, the morale of the Western Turks soldiers was low.
The battles that lasted for several days had suffered heavy casualties, but they could not capture the city. Anyone would be depressed and war-weary, and would want to return to their homeland, because too many brothers who came with them died in the siege.
It wouldn't matter if the two sides fought to the death with real swords and guns. The most frustrating thing is that they were blown up by those artillery pieces without even touching the city wall. Their death was so miserable that they didn't know what happened until they died. , died so mysteriously.
King Zuo Xian did not notice this. What he cared about was that if this battle failed, his status would not be guaranteed. As for the life and death of the soldiers, he really didn't care. In his opinion, these soldiers were just his They are just chess pieces. If they die, they will die. As long as they can capture Dingxiang City, their death will be worthwhile and valuable.
After the sergeant finished reorganizing, he walked out of the camp again. This time, countless Western Turk soldiers walked out and could not come back. They stayed here forever and could only return to their hometown.
King Zuo Xian naturally supervises the battle in person. At this moment, he no longer trusts any soldiers. In his opinion, it is safest to supervise the battle in person. Only if he supervises the battle in person will the soldiers not dare to fight cowardly or cheat. .
On Dingxiang City, Li Jing also arrived at the city tower early. Today he will give King Zuo Xian a big surprise.
When the Western Turkic army arrived, the soldiers on the city immediately became energetic. What was different from before was that there were many iron bumps on the city. These were the artillery pieces brought by Zheng Rentai, a total of ten.
They were scattered on three city walls by Li Jing. Except for the seven artillery pieces on the west wall, eight artillery pieces were placed on the north and east sides.
Today he is going to give the Western Turks soldiers a hard blow. The eight artillery pieces will definitely be a big surprise, and this is just one of the surprises.
Within the city, groups of troops and horses were also getting ready to go. Yuchi Jingde was now wearing heavy armor and standing next to Zheng Rentai. Behind them, there were densely packed soldiers, waiting for Li Jing's order to order them. They will rush out from the north gate and kill the Turkic army to the west.
