The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 469 Siege March

He knew that he had to keep enough rest, otherwise his command might make mistakes. On the battlefield, any mistake could lead to the death of a large number of soldiers.

As soon as he touched the bed, his body, which had been supported by willpower before, couldn't hold it for a long time. Changsun Ji just finally realized the softness of the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

When he regained consciousness again, Changsun Ji was awakened by the sound of drumming.Reflexively jumped up from the bed, put on the clothes simply, Changsun Ji walked out of the room,

Just when he saw Cheng Ping walking towards him, Cheng Ping cupped his hands and said before Changsun Ji asked, "My lord, the rebels outside the city are attacking the city again."

Changsun Ji nodded, without saying a word, and climbed up the city wall with a sullen face.Standing on the city wall, Changsun Ji looked into the distance, and his already ugly face became a lot more gloomy.

What he had been worrying about yesterday had become a reality this morning.The west gate ushered in another group of rebels.

This means that today's combat pressure will be twice as high as yesterday's.This made Changsun Ji a little worried about the morale of the soldiers. After all, the more the enemy fights, the more things will hurt the morale of the soldiers.

Just when Changsun Ji was looking at these rebels from a distance.In the distance, the Sheriff of An Ding was watching him from a distance.

Governor An pointed at Changsun Ji standing on the city wall with his finger, and said to a burly man standing beside him, "General Li, look, that man is Changsun Ji."

The big man nodded casually.

As if seeing that he didn't care, the governor An chuckled twice and said, "General Li, don't underestimate this kid, he is very treacherous. Yesterday, when our army attacked the city, he not only lost It is full of iron thorns and caltrops, and a barbed net full of iron thorns was sprinkled in the middle of the river. Yesterday, many of my sons fell on it."

"Lord An, don't worry for now. From my point of view, the eldest grandson and the youngest child are only capable of this, and they just know how to play some small tricks, but these things are not worth mentioning in the face of absolute power. Wait, Lord An. In half a day, I will be able to lead my subordinate Erlang to attack the capital and take the head of the eldest grandson Xiaoer."

"Haha, then I'm going to see what General Li is capable of." An Junshou laughed.

Seeming to be very satisfied with the performance of Governor An, General Li showed a smug expression on his face, but he didn't notice that Governor An who was standing next to him was smiling, but his face was not very good-looking.

This General Li said that he had been able to fight for half a day, if he couldn't, then that's all, everyone is rubbish.Big Brother don't laugh at Second Brother either.If it really took half a day to enter the capital and take it down, wouldn't it make me look like rubbish for him to lose so many soldiers in one day.

Although he dislikes that General Li can't speak, but the other party is his reinforcement after all, Li Shi from Lido.So even though he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, the governor of an county still had a smile on his face.

After General Li led his troops forward, An Junshou took a sneer at the General He surnamed Wei who was following him, and said softly: "Since this General Li is so mighty, let's transfer our soldiers first." Come back, lest General Li feel that we stole their limelight."

General He surnamed Wei smiled, stretched out his hand to An Junshou and showed a thumbs up, with a look of admiration on his face: "Your Excellency is really clever, let these barbarians go to die in front, and when they are almost beaten, let's go Harvest the fruit."

An Junshou showed some complacency on his face, glanced at General He Wei, and said, "You're just talking too much, so hurry up and do it."

"Hey, it's the last general who talks too much, he should be hit." As he spoke, General He surnamed Wei stretched out his hand and patted his mouth lightly.Then he went on to say: "Don't worry, my lord, I'll do it now, and make sure it's done properly."

Not to mention the intrigue between the rebels, Changsun Ji stood on the city wall and watched the rebels of the governor of An'an retreat, and the new one came up which was the rebels just now, because it was unclear whether it was those two rebels. Are the rebels at odds with each other, or do they have other schemes.Therefore, Changsun Ji did not dare to pile up all the soldiers like yesterday.

He left a small group of soldiers as replacements, just to prevent the opponent's rebels from using tactics such as wheel warfare.

However, Changsun Ji underestimated the ferocity of the new rebels this time. After the manpower was reduced compared to yesterday, many rebels actually rushed across the moat and reached the gate of the city.

Seeing that there are already a lot of climbing ladders extending above the city wall, the rebels who have just crossed the moat below are already preparing to climb the city wall.

Changsun Ji was not in a hurry, he stretched out his hand, and suddenly, a group of young and middle-aged men rushed up, and these young and middle-aged men were carrying bundles of dry firewood behind them.

As bundles of dry firewood fell below the wall, and then, a flaming arrow fell on top of the dry firewood. In just a moment, the entire city wall was completely turned into a sea of ​​flames.

The rebels who hadn't climbed up before, fell into the sea of ​​flames one by one as the climbing ladder was burned, rushed into the moat wailing, and then stepped into the footsteps of death.

With the establishment of the two defense lines of water and fire, all the rebels who had been charging slowed down their attack. As a result, the group of rebels retreated before dark.

Looking at the sky, he knew that it would be difficult for the rebels to organize another attack today, so Changsun Ji came down from the city wall, drank some water, and moistened his thirsty throat.

Being attacked by the rebels for two days in a row, although they were exhausted every day, at least in terms of the sacrifice of soldiers, the other city gates attacked by the rebels were almost negligible.This gave Changsun Ji his own prestige among these soldiers.

In this way, relying on the advantage of the moat, Changsun Ji and the others held on for another two days without any danger.

And after two days of attacking the city, the group of rebels understood that if they didn't stop this section of the moat, they wouldn't have to think about being able to capture the capital.

In fact, the group of rebels had already taken action after discovering the problem.Changsun Ji noticed that since yesterday, the water in the section of the moat in front of them has been flowing at a speed that is almost negligible.

Changsun Ji guessed that the group of rebels blocked the water upstream.This caused the speed of the river to slow down.

Moreover, when the group of traitors rushed over, each traitor's clothes were stuffed to the brim, and after some traitors died, he noticed that mud flowed from the broken clothes.

The plan of the rebels, Changsun Ji understood, was nothing more than wanting to fill up the moat with the lives of his soldiers.

For the rebels to adopt this method, Changsun Ji is quite willing.It's just a moat, so many rebels can be kept here.In his opinion, this deal made a lot of money for him.

After all, for him, the longer the delay, the better for them.It would take at least a day or two to fill the moat with his soldiers.
