Garlei looked at Lu Xiuyuan in confusion, "Why did Leader Lu have lunch so early today?"
Lu Xiuyuan restrained himself, fearing that his smile would be too stiff, "I got up early today and ate very early, so I was hungry before noon, so I ate at random an hour ago."
Garlei nodded, and just as he was about to hand over his hand and leave, he suddenly saw his subordinates running towards him in a panic and reporting: "General... it's not good..."
"What happened?"
"Our scouts came to report that the Han army has descended from Hupanling and is approaching Shanzhou."
"What?" Garlei stomped his feet angrily, "These hateful Han people, how many people did they come with?"
The subordinate said: "Rough calculation, there should be 70,000 to 80,000 people."
Garlei lowered his head, looked solemn, and ordered: "Send an order to the entire army to prepare for the enemy, and then send someone to report to the marshal."
Lu Xiu saw that Garlei was very melancholy, and he was secretly happy, but on the surface he still pretended to be nervous, "General, I will also give orders and let my people get ready quickly."
Garlei gritted his teeth and nodded, signaling him to hurry up and make arrangements, while he turned back to the command room of the tower to wait.
After a while, Xiruozandra led his men to the command room. Everyone saw the coach looking worried, and everyone had their heads lowered.
"How is the situation?" Xiruozandra asked Garlei after sitting down.
"The Han army is approaching us, and they will probably start attacking us in just a cup of tea."
Some people directly asked the coach for orders: "Marshal, we should take the initiative!"
At this time, Tan Ma came to report again: "Report to the marshal that the Han army has set up a formation outside the city and is preparing to attack the city!"
"Okay! Get ready to meet the enemy..."
The majestic Shanzhou city wall has been weathered, but it has remained brand new for a long time. The Han army that has been attacking the city for several days can hardly see any signs of damage outside the city. Gao Jun, Lu Zuo and others, who were sitting in the central army, all focused their attention on the proud tower. There were layers of dark clouds covering the city, and thunder sounded from time to time in the sky. Looking at this situation, there might be a heavy rain soon.
Gao Jun raised his riding whip, pointed at the Shanzhou city tower and asked Lu Zuo beside him, "Brother, it looks like it will rain now! Is it appropriate to attack the city today? I'm afraid it will be even more disadvantageous for us!"
Lu Zuo's forehead wrinkled for an instant, then returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the odds of winning are now on our side, success or failure depends on today. I believe my second uncle and third uncle are ready!" "
As he spoke, Pang Gu rushed over to report, "Marshal, Brother Lu, brothers are ready, just waiting for your order!"
"Okay! Send me the commander's military order to attack the city..."
War drums resounded across the sky, and in an instant the drums and thunder rang out. The archers on both sides had already set up their formations. First, there was a wave of arrow attacks, causing casualties on both sides. After the Han army attacked with a wave of arrow formations, the infantry began to launch trebuchets and ballistae, shooting towards the city head. For a moment, Shanzhou City was shaken and chaotic.
In the command room of Shanzhou City Tower, Xiruozhanzhuo waited anxiously for the battle situation. From time to time, his subordinates came in to report the situation outside. When he heard that the Han army had already attacked the city and set up a ladder, Xiruozhanzhuo could not sit still anymore. He drew his sword and shouted: "Follow me to the left and right to kill the enemy."
As soon as Xi Ruozanzhuo finished speaking, someone came to report again, but when he saw the soldier with a gray face and bloodstains all over his body, he ran into the command room and said excitedly, "Marshal... it's not good..."
"What's wrong?" Xi Ruozandra's eyes widened anxiously, "Straighten your tongue and speak!"
"Rebellion, rebellion..." The soldier was obviously too excited to speak.
"Reverse?" Xi Ruozanzhuo was puzzled.
More than a dozen generals present also asked loudly: "What's wrong?"
Seeing everyone looking at him angrily, the soldier became even more hesitant. It took a lot of effort to answer: "The road... is far away... he..."
"What?" Xiruozandra said angrily, "You mean Lu Xiuyuan has switched sides!"
"Exactly!"
There was an uproar in the command room, and everyone quickly drew their swords and rushed outside after the coach.
Sure enough, the Tibetan army could be said to be exhausted at this time. The Han army was below the city, and the troops building a long road were above the city.
Xiruozandhuo looked at the chaos on the city in front of him. Not far away, Lu Xiuyuan was actually fighting with his soldiers, and he was furious for a moment.
Garlei behind him shouted: "Marshal, look at Lu Xiuyuan and his men, they all have yellow ribbons tied on their left arms."
"This group of thieves are indeed premeditated." Xiruo Zandhuo slapped his thigh and shouted, "No! Can we send heavy troops to guard the north gate?"
"We will all guard the east gate with heavy troops to defend against the Han army. There are only three thousand soldiers at the west gate." Garlei was startled, "Marshal, is there any problem?"
"Lu Xiuyuan defected, and those grassroots bandits from Fengji Mountain will definitely take the opportunity to go down the mountain and attack the city." Xiruo Zanzhuo gritted his molar teeth, "When we lured Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu to Shanzhou City, we didn't expect that This hidden danger remains today."
"What should we do? The brothers from the left and right camps have also gathered here."
"Garlei, you bring five thousand people to support the west city gate. You must hold on. When I finish the Han army here, I will naturally defeat the other side." After Xiruozandra said this, Garlei turned around and left. The tower is over. Xiruozandra shouted at his men: "Bring me bows and arrows."
Xiruozandra looked at the road not far away, Xiu Yuan, and his nameless anger was burning. He saw that he was holding a sword, chopping melons and vegetables at his men, so he quickly took the bows and arrows from his men, opened the bow and nocked the arrows, and aimed them at random. The road in the distance was far away and he shot an arrow at him. The cold arrow shot straight towards Lu Xiuyuan with a "swish" sound.
Lu Xiuyuan was furious with the killing when suddenly, with a sound of "ah", the cold arrow hit the yellow ribbon on his left arm. In an instant, the yellow ribbon was dyed red with blood. Lu Xiuyuan shouted: "Cover..."
After a moment, the men around Lu Xiuyuan responded and stepped forward to surround Lu Xiuyuan to help cover him. The men in front were fighting. Lu Xiuyuan placed the sword on the ground, broke the arrow with his right hand, and then removed the yellow ribbon on his left arm. With one turn, the bleeding just stopped, and then he continued to pick up the sword and fight.
Seeing that Lu Xiuyuan was still fine, Xi Ruozanzhuo quickly called his men to capture Lu Xiuyuan.
After saying that, three or four Tibetan generals wearing helmets and armors came forward with sharp swords in their hands and surrounded Lu Xiuyuan. Lu Xiuyuan blocked the swords of these people with left and right blocks. After all, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, and Lu Xiuyuan was seriously injured, so he could only dodge. Seeing that they were forced into the corner by a few of them, there was no way out. As he was retreating, Lu Xiuyuan shouted loudly, raised his knife and chopped down a Tibetan general on his right to the ground.
After seeing this, several other Tibetan generals took a step back. After looking at each other, they rushed forward and chopped at the beards. Lu Xiuyuan had no power to parry at this time, his right hand gradually became numb, and sweat gradually broke out on his forehead. However, when he saw a knife slashing towards his forehead, suddenly a familiar shout came from the left direction. The sound of shouting.
