Chapter 567 Calling the wind and calling the snow
at this time
Outside Xuzhou City, the two armies confronted each other.Murong Yanchao led an army of 20 to the west city of Xuzhou.Now Xuzhou City is different from east to west. The distance between the two cities is only [-] miles, but the west city was built on the basis of a small town. Even with Lei Hong's full support, the city wall is far less towering than the east city. Underneath, it looks extremely small.

Chai Rong's reinforcements had not yet arrived, but Dou Yi's [-] reinforcements had already arrived in the west city of Xuzhou.

In fact, there is not much difference in military strength, but Dou Yi's [-] reinforcements came from patchwork, while Murong Yanchao's [-] troops were brought out by himself, there is no comparison between the two.If it is a field battle on flat ground, there is almost no suspense in the crushing situation. Fortunately, it is just defending the city now, as long as everyone performs their duties, it will not be a big problem.

Murong Yanchao was suspicious by nature, and when he came to the west city of Xuzhou, he found something was wrong. Just behind the city gate, there was a towering altar. This altar was built so solemnly that it was daunting.Moreover, the Fatai was built very high, several times higher than the city wall.

Murong Yanchao drove his horse outside the city gate, pointed his gun at Fan Zhi on the crenel and shouted, "Fan Zhi, quickly open the city gate, I think you are Lei Hong's son-in-law, I won't kill you. Otherwise After the city is broken, I can't control Sha Hongyan's subordinates."

Fan Zhi smiled and said, "Murong Yanchao, you really don't know how to live or die. How dare you take the initiative to send it to your door. Don't forget how you died."

"Just because you remembered how I died, I dared to come." Murong Yanchao said excitedly: "The temperature is in the south, and the army has enough food and grass. At least before we capture this city, I won't die of cold or starvation."

"Not necessarily."

Those four short words shocked everyone present. Not to mention the loudness, the voice was filled with a fearsome majesty, as if shouted in an empty hall, echoing endlessly.

As the sound fell to the ground, Zong Xin walked slowly to Fan Zhi's side.Zong Xin's expression seemed to have never changed, calm as water, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

No one needs to be introduced, everyone knows who this monk is, and the entire battlefield is silent.Zong Xin has created too many miracles, and his name has become a kind of legend, especially the soldiers who stand on the opposite side. Although they have absolute victory, no one can guarantee this battle Will win, even Murong Yanchao can't guarantee it.

Zong Xin touched the ground on his toes, jumped up with his back to the altar, and then opened his hands and waved towards the sky. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, several thunder flashed, and the world was in chaos, as if the end was approaching.

The whole battlefield was in chaos. Everyone knew that Zong Xin had supernatural powers, and they saw it with their own eyes today, but they never expected that the first time they saw it, it would be so terrifying.Since it was Murong Yanchao's side, they were almost terrified and didn't know what would happen next. Although these people didn't believe it, they couldn't guarantee that Zong Xin could use lightning to bombard him non-stop. If that was the case, don't say It is an army of 40, and even a [-] army cannot attack the west city of Xuzhou.

Suddenly, a gust of east wind passed by, dense shadows appeared in the sky, the number was unbelievable, and these things floated very slowly.Half of the soldiers on Murong Yanchao's side sat upside down on the ground, watching the shadows in the sky slowly approaching, wondering what would come down.

"Snow? It's snowing."

I don't know who yelled, the original shocked mood improved a little, if only snow fell from the sky, it would be fine, I thought it was something terrible, but relatively, the weather started to turn cold.

This winter is extremely cold. Xuzhou has always had three seasons: spring, summer and autumn. Only in the deep winter can people feel the real cold.But this year is different. This year's winter came very quickly, and the soldiers who were not used to the cold had already put on their winter clothes early.It's just the beginning of winter, what should we do in the depths of winter?
The climate will not always be so accurate, it will change a little every year, but this year it has changed too much, too fast, and it is overwhelming.But this didn't affect Murong Yanchao and his [-] army. In his eyes, there was only Xuzhou West City. As long as he captured Xuzhou West City, he would be able to sit back and relax.

But Zong Xin's performance just now made everyone start to be scared. Zong Xin actually caused a light snow to fall in Xuzhou City, which was always warm. This was terrible.The weather was getting colder and colder, but the soldiers could still bear this temperature, but... there were no soldiers at all at this time, and Murong Yanchao did not dare to order an siege.

Although Murong Yanchao is a reckless man, he is not a fool, and has good attainments in the art of war.The opponent suddenly used this move, not to mention the [-] army behind him, even the [-] army would not dare to take a step forward.Murong Yanchao's fear of Zong Xin has reached the limit. The original Zong Xin was already scary enough, but now he still makes Xuzhou snow... If this kind of thing can be done, how can this battle be fought?

Murong Yanchao himself was not afraid of Xiaoxue, but he had to take into account the feelings of other soldiers.Zong Xin was able to subdue others without fighting, he was indeed a master of masters.

Although Murong Yanchao had noticed that this winter was extremely cold, he never thought that snow would fall in the warm Xuzhou, and now there were more things to do.Originally, he wanted to take down Xuzhou in one go, but it seemed that it was not so easy.

"Mingjin withdraws troops."

Murong Yanchao gave an order, and there were bursts of metal impact sounds in the army, and then the front row changed to the back row, and everyone slowly retreated from the area of ​​Xuzhou West City.The originally high-spirited soldiers dropped to freezing point in an instant, and the whole team was silent. They all suspected that this uprising would stop in Xuzhou, because the enemy they were about to face was too terrifying.

Xuzhou West City suddenly set off with loud boos. Murong Yanchao and all his troops had shame on their faces, but they knew that they had to retreat. There were no soldiers left, and all the soldiers were frightened. Attack again.

The east wind is getting stronger and the weather is getting colder and colder. Fan Zhi has already distributed the winter clothes and supplies, which is just right for this kind of weather.The early winter in the south is as cold as the deep winter in the north. This situation has never been seen before. What's more, after Zong Xin cast the spell just now, snowflakes fell in the sky immediately. Facing an unknown opponent, retreating is definitely the most correct choice.

At this time, Murong Yanchao was also frightened and trotted forward on his horse, constantly looking back.He was more afraid of this snow than anyone else, because Zong Xin said that he died of cold and hunger. He originally thought that hiding in the warm south would be fine, but he didn't expect that it would snow in the south, and this was just It’s early winter, what should we do when the cold winter comes?

The cold winter is approaching, and more supplies must be purchased as soon as possible, otherwise this battle will not be fought at all, and the opponent can freeze the entire 10,000+ soldiers in Xuzhou City to death without attacking.

It's terrible. Fortunately, it's winter, and the clothes on the soldiers and themselves are increasing. Now I just feel cold, but it's not deadly.If the war started in summer, it would be irreparable. This move could kill more than half of the soldiers on the battlefield in winter.

Only then did Murong Yanchao discover that the soldiers in the west city of Xuzhou generally wore thicker clothes, which must have been ordered by Zong Xin a long time ago. If this battle really broke out, the soldiers on the other side would be cold, while the other side would wait for work to keep warm. Is there still a fight in this situation?It must be annihilated.

"My husband is so powerful, you can still use this kind of spell?" Although Yaoyao really wanted to jump on the platform to give Zong Xin a big hug, and then bite him twice, she even wanted to take off his clothes on the spot Fa-rectification.But at this time Zong Xin was casting a spell, and she didn't know what would happen if she rushed up suddenly. Although Yaoyao was impulsive, she was not stupid at all. I'm afraid even a fool would not be able to do such a thing.

Zong Xin slowly put down his hand, then jumped off the altar and returned to the crenel.Everyone was dumbfounded. Fan Zhi and Dou Yi haven't recovered yet. They really don't want to believe that one person can do such a thing, but the facts are right in front of them. With such a high reputation, everything he does is a miracle.

Zong Xin said softly: "Lord Fan, Lord Dou, this snow will last until the beginning of spring tomorrow. I said it would be useful to buy more supplies for the winter. Now that Murong Yanchao is going to buy it, I don't know how much it will cost. Of course he spent the same amount of money. I don't feel bad for Li Jing's money."

"Oh~oh~"

The two of them were still in shock. No one had reacted in shock, but they probably understood what Zong Xin meant. The next step was to defend Xuzhou Xicheng. If Zong Xin stayed here all the time, he would not dare to give Murong Yanchao more courage. Attack, but Zong Xin has already stated that his real destination is Weizhou, which is more dangerous.Zong Xin would only wait until Chai Rong's reinforcements arrived and immediately took his troops to Weizhou.

In Xuzhou, apart from the 2 troops brought by Dou Yi, there is also the [-] troops that Chai Rong is about to bring, making up [-] troops, but it will take a tragic massacre to defend the west city of Xuzhou.I believe that Murong Yanchao will immediately regroup and send troops again as long as he knows the news of Zong Xin's departure.But Murong Yanchao had to prepare the clothes and battle suits for the soldiers to keep out the cold first, and this matter would keep Murong Yanchao busy for a while.

Datang's army has almost arrived in Xuzhou, and has brought a lot of supplies.It's just that the weather is changing too fast, and the climate in the south is not supposed to be so cold. This move took everyone by surprise. They needed to reconsider their tactics. Zong Xin bought precious time for Xuzhou.

Lei Fang excitedly said: "This... Master Zong Xin is too powerful. I believe that Murong Yan will not be able to organize an attack in a short period of time, and then he will be able to relax for a while and continue to strengthen the city wall."

Lei Fang really wanted to announce to the world that Zong Xin was her half-brother.If you let others know that you have such a younger brother, you will definitely be envious to death.But Leifang still held back, because it was really inappropriate to say this matter, the identities of Zong Xin and Lei Hong were really inappropriate, and... also had a great impact on Zong Xin's plan.
