Ma Rubao broke into a cold sweat.
It turns out that while I am surrounding others, I am not alone.
If Wang Liang cannot withstand the enemy, the reinforcements from Nanyang will pinch them between Nanyang and Xinye, and press them step by step, eventually pinching them into sesame cakes.
At this thought, Ma Rubao's previous calmness instantly turned into anxiety.
"Come here, explore for thirty miles in the direction of Nanyang. If there are any changes, report back immediately!"
He gave the order decisively.
…
Of course, he was just making a false alarm.
After Wang Liang defeated Nanyang's reinforcements, he took a short rest and then rushed to Xinye without stopping.
On Lin Zhijing's side, after the first wave of attacks failed, he didn't rest for a long time before launching a second wave of attacks.
Likewise, it was the indiscriminate bombardment of bed slaves and catapults, and it was also the infantry pushing the ox cart that attacked the moat.
At this point in the battle, Ma Jun's archers encountered a big problem, that is, the stock of arrows was obviously not enough.
Ma Jun also didn't expect that Lin Zhijing would fight so wildly and so desperately.
"Put it closer and shoot! Shoot accurately!"
Ma Jun was holding a waist knife and with a dark face, reminding the archers.
There was a brief silence in the scene. Lin Zhijing's infantry also advanced to the bottom of the city wall, and the ladder was set up again.
Uh-huh!
Almost at the same time, the defenders at the top of the city emerged from behind the battlements, firing arrows, rolling stones, splashing water, and used several major tricks again.
ah……
The screams came one after another.
A captain from Jincheng climbed up bravely with a sword on his back and a shield.
Whoosh!
Immediately an arrow was shot down, and he turned his head to avoid it, then climbed up again.
At this time, a group of Lin Zhijing's elite cavalry had also rushed into the effective shooting range, raised their bows, and sprayed a rain of arrows towards the city. It was this rain of arrows that gave the infantry the opportunity to take a step forward.
"No, General, the enemy is approaching the city!"
Suddenly, only one person was heard shouting in panic.
Ma Jun turned around and saw that enemy soldiers had come up to kill several places on the top of the city.
"Kick them to death!"
Ma Jun ordered harshly. As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped into the air and slashed with his sword. A brave general who had just entered the city was unable to parry, and one of his arms was chopped off in an instant.
puff!
Before he could react, Ma Jun's next slash struck the brave general's neck.
Sure enough, it's Xiao Ma Chao, not the silver wax gun head!
At the top of the city, there was a small commotion for a while. Several groups of sergeants rushed into the city, causing them a little trouble. However, Ma Jun's sergeants were not idiots after all, and the commotion was stopped soon after.
The ladder was lifted off the city wall again.
Ma Jun took a long gun and with a sudden force, he aimed at a sergeant who was hanging on the ladder and threw it quickly.
puff!
The spear pierced the sergeant with precision.
"well!"
"The general is brave, the general is brave!"
…
For a time, there was thunderous praise.
"withdraw troops!"
Lin Zhijing gave the order again depressedly.
When, when...
The gong sounded, the gold was raised and the troops retreated.
…
"General Lin, let your subordinates go fight for a while!"
In the tent, the newly surrendered Xiao Zheng took the initiative to challenge Lin Zhijing.
"Haha, by the way, General Xiao, I hope you can teach me how to destroy Xinye City!"
Lin Zhijing looked at Xiao Zheng and his eyes lit up. When it comes to what is true in this city, Xiao Zheng knows it better than anyone else!
Of course, before Xiao Zheng was not required to charge, it was also because he would feel a little embarrassed if he turned around and immediately attacked his former friend. But now he takes the initiative to ask for help, isn't that just right?
"Don't dare, General Lin, my subordinates are very ashamed."
Xiao Zheng is still very understanding. How can he dare to be a little arrogant in front of his boss?
