The Tibetan army in Shanzhou City was already exhausted at this time. On one side was the fiercely attacking Han army, and on the other was the jealous Fengjishan grass bandits. There was already a fight on the city wall, but the number of people in Fengji Mountain was only five thousand, and the Tibetan garrison numbered tens of thousands. Gradually, there was momentum to quell the civil strife.
And Lu Xiuyuan and his men gradually felt that they were beyond their capabilities. Just when Lu Xiuyuan felt that he could not recover, he suddenly heard a familiar shout in his ears. When he looked up, it turned out to be his third brother Qin Fu and his men. Killing is coming. But seeing Qin Fu holding a big sword, one by one, the two or three Tibetan generals were caught off guard and instantly turned into ghosts under the sword. Qin Fu saw Lu Xiuyuan's left shoulder was red and stepped forward to help him cover the fight. He asked hurriedly: "Second brother, what's wrong with your left shoulder?"
"Just now..." Lu Xiuyuan seemed to have difficulty speaking because of the pain, "Just now... I was hit by an arrow in the back!"
"Is it okay?"
Lu Xiuyuan raised his sword to help with the killing, and replied: "It doesn't matter... Where are you... over there? Just now Xiruozandhuo sent four to five thousand people to support... West City Gate, are Huo Yan and the others okay? ?”
"The four to five thousand men sent by Xiruozandhuo just now were ambushed by our people. Now they are waiting to make meat fillings! I was afraid that you were in danger, so I came over alone to help first!" Qin Fu After slashing two in a row with his sword, he continued, "Huo Yan has begun to attack the city. As soon as they take it, they will come over to help!"
At this time, corpses lay everywhere under the city of Shanzhou, and rivers of blood flowed. Attack after round, but it was still difficult to break through the city gate of Shanzhou. The Han soldiers quickly ran up the ladder, but were overwhelmed by the molten iron and molten metal pouring down from above. Dung, water, thorns, etc. are repulsed. The sky above Shanzhou City was filled with thick smoke, flying arrows, fire, and stone projectiles thrown by trebuchets. The sound of drums, thunder, shouts of death and the clash of swords echoed through the sky.
Gao Yun, Lu Zuo and others were sitting firmly in the middle of the army. Looking at the formation in front of them, they all frowned. It seemed that it would be really difficult to capture Shanzhou in a while. If this continued, the situation might be reversed. . Gao Jun held the reins tightly in his hands, and his palms began to sweat. Inside and outside Shanzhou City, which was covered with dark clouds, the earth was dark. Everyone was paying attention to the situation below Shanzhou City, holding their breath and anxiously waiting for a turn in the war situation. After a long time, Gao Yun and Lu Zuo looked at each other again. It must have been almost time! Suddenly there was a flash of lightning on the Shanzhou City Tower, and it seemed that the whole world lit up for a moment, followed by a roar of thunder.
Lu Zuo raised his eyes and looked at the horizon. On the other side of the mountain in Shanzhou City, it was already raining heavily. The rain suddenly swept over. Gao Yun and others were unable to avoid it, and their bodies were already wet. A big piece. His general Pi came to Gao Jun's horse in the rain and shouted: "Marshal, the rain is fierce, you'd better go to the carriage tent to rest!"
Gao Yun glanced at Lu Zuo, and then waved to General Pi, who was dismounted, saying no.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and gradually the situation at the top of Shanzhou City was no longer clearly visible, and the offensives of both sides also slowed down a lot. Lu Zuo was getting more and more anxious to see if the rain would stop soon, but the offensive from both sides slowed down.
Not far away, Yin Ji rode against the rain and came to Lu Zuo. "Master, it's raining heavily. You should go to the car tent to rest! What will you do if Ji'er gets sick and returns home?"
Lu Zuo ignored Yin Ji and shouted to Gao Yun: "Brother Xian, quickly order to strengthen the offensive..."
Because the thunderstorm was so loud, although Gao Yun was only three steps away from Lu Zuo, he couldn't hear Lu Zuo's words clearly. Gao Yun took a step forward, stood next to Lu Zuo and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
At this time, the rain hit Lu Zuo's face, and his face became paler, but he still shouted with all his strength: "Hurry up and order to strengthen the offensive. Once we slow down the attack... then they will have time to destroy our city." All the internal forces should be eliminated together... In this way, today's achievements will be destroyed in one day!"
Gao Yun nodded and asked someone to call Pang Gu.
Pang Gu rushed over and shouted: "Marshal, the rain is too heavy now and our siege troops are struggling. Do you want to wait for the rain to stop before attacking the city?"
"No, what should our agents do? Order to strengthen the attack!"
"In this case, I would like to ask you to lead troops to attack the city!"
Gao Yun looked at the situation and was afraid that he might be in danger. Just when he was about to tell him not to go, Pang Gu had already galloped away and disappeared into the white rain curtain.
Lu Zuo looked anxiously in the direction of Shanzhou City. Although he couldn't see anything clearly at the moment, there were only bursts of shouts of death and the sound of thunder and rain. Unexpectedly, there was a soldier above Lu Zuo's head helping to support him. A big umbrella. Until Yin Ji next to her was so excited that she shouted loudly: "Master...mother!"
At this time, everyone looked at the man next to Lu Zuo. He was a soldier wearing Han army armor, but he had handsome features. His delicate face was already wet from the rain, and he was holding an umbrella in his hand.
Lu Zuo recognized it at a glance and exclaimed: "Jingruo? Jingruo..." Seeing her lowering her head and saying nothing, he quickly asked, "Why are you here? Aren't you in the capital?" Seeing her not speaking, He said anxiously, "This is a slaughterhouse for killing people. Why do you, a girl, appear here?"
Gao Yun quickly ordered and sent more than a dozen guards to protect An Jing Ruo.
Just then Jing Jingruo said coquettishly: "I couldn't feel relieved, so I followed you all the way. And you said, why don't you... in such a heavy rain?" At this point, Jing Jingruo lowered his head again.
On Shanzhou City, Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu were gradually unable to hold on, and more and more brothers were killed and injured. If there was no more support, or if the city gate could no longer be breached, then their own people would most likely be wiped out. .
Xiruo Zanzhuo stood in the middle of the city tower, watching the rain getting heavier and heavier. He was secretly happy. As long as the civil strife was quelled, the Han army would soon be defeated. Today's battle will definitely cause serious damage to both sides. , but for our own side, this is undoubtedly a good thing. Xiruozandhuo looked back and took another look at Lu Xiuyuan and his men who were still lingering. It seemed that these people would be eliminated soon in less than half an hour. At this moment, he seemed to be able to see the Han army retreating in the same embarrassment as before in the heavy rain. He had already thought that he would personally lead a team of troops to pursue the victory. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel complacent.
Just when the battle situation was slowly turning around and Xiruozandra was feeling complacent, a familiar figure suddenly rushed out of the rain. When he looked up close, he saw that the person was none other than Garlei. Xiruozandra was shocked. Didn't he go to support the West City Gate? Why did he suddenly appear again? Thinking of this, his heart felt like a honey pot filled with soy sauce and vinegar, and he stood up anxiously.
