Yan'an Prefecture and Yanchuan County are in the same city, so the city is both Yan'an Prefecture and Yanchuan County.

The city walls are tall and thick, surrounded by moats, which are much stronger in defense than ordinary county towns.

At this time, in Yan'an Prefecture City, the black tiger flag of the Gaobei Thief Army was full of people, with shadows everywhere on the top of the city, the gates were closed, the suspension bridge was rising, and he was ready to face the situation.

The soldiers who had basically never fought a war all the way north suddenly became nervous when they saw this scene.

Lin Yi was not surprised, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.

It was as expected that the bandit army would give up the county to defend Yan'an Prefecture.

Now that speculation has been confirmed, he naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yi ordered the entire army to camp and set up camp in three parts according to their respective subordinates.

He took hundreds of personal soldiers to ride around the city for a few rounds, observing the city's defense, and thinking about how to break the city.

Yan'an Prefecture City is built against the mountains, with a narrow pattern in the north and south. Although there are four gates in total, the terrain outside the two gates, the east and west gates is narrow and it is not suitable for large army to form camps.

Therefore, it can only attack from both north and south.

After Lin Yi inspected, he found that the two gates of the east and west were blocked by bricks and stones by the thief army, and soldiers were also stationed on the top of the city.

However, the key defense directions of the bandit army are all at the South Gate.

Lin Yi did not take the method of surrounding the group, but was only prepared to attack the South Gate and leave the North Gate for the bandits to escape.

According to military tactics, three sieges are missing one. If the city is encircled to death, it may arouse the defenders' desire to fight to the death. It is better to leave a door for them to escape, so that they will not fight to the end.

After a series of previous events, Lin Yi's purpose of this expedition has changed from annihilation of the bandit army to regaining lost territory. As long as he can restore Yan'an Prefecture, the bandit army will run away.

Take back the city first, at least you can explain it to your father, Duke Ning and the court.

As for the bandit army, it will be eliminated slowly in the future.

Looking at the majestic city in front of him, Lin Yi was thinking about the elite Wei army that had never appeared in his heart.

Where are they?

Will it suddenly appear when you are sieging the city?

Or are you lurking in the city, waiting to give yourself a fatal blow when you are caught off guard?

Are the muskets in the hands of the Wei soldiers mentioned by Lin Feng really that sharp? Is it a new musket that the Wei people have been secretly studying?

A series of questions fermented in Lin Yi's heart, but no one could give him an answer.

But we have come here, no matter how cautious we are, we still have to fight the battle we should fight.

Lin Yi ordered the Township Yongying to be responsible for building siege equipment and preparing siege materials.

Ten thousand soldiers will be the main force in this siege.

The ten thousand Yulin Left Guards under him are the supervisor team. What's more important is that they must be guarded against the elite Wei army soldiers who may appear behind them at any time.

On the top of the city, a middle-aged man with a majestic face, dark face and a thick beard under his jaw stood.

This man looked a little like Zhang Yide in his iron armor, but the expression on his face seemed a little panicked at this moment.

"Sir, do you think we can really defend this city? Well, the government army has not sent anyone outside the north gate, so why don't we run away quickly. When we get to the mountains, even if the government army has the ability, it will not be able to catch up with us."

Even if this person is a terrifying "Black King of Hell" tall beard, his original name is high-speed railway rush, he got the nickname of a tall beard because of his iconic black-faced beard. Few people know about his real name.

Although the tall beard is famous among the general public, he is only a butcher, with limited layout and short-sighted eyes. Although he is a bit fierce and cunning, he is still a person who is not up to the table.

The demise of his wife's brother Zhao Biao had long been frightened, worried that the government army would come back to attack him at any time.

The originally inflated mind was quickly beaten back to the prototype after his wife's brother died, and he wanted to return to the mountains and forests to be his mountain king.

But the Wei people supported him because they wanted him to be cannon fodder to attract the attention of the Qin army. The purpose has not been achieved yet, how could he allow him to admit defeat and run away?

Under the various coercion and inducement of the Wei special envoy, Gao Huzi reluctantly agreed to defend Yan'an City.

Originally, he thought that he had killed a lot of government troops, and the government troops were just like that. But when he stood on the top of the city, he saw the scene of tens of thousands of Qin troops camping with his own eyes, and when he saw the camp that stretched for miles, he began to feel heartbroken.

Hearing Gao Beizi wanted to give up again, the middle-aged man with ordinary face and cold expression on the side, and the same iron armor, said coldly: "General Gao, why are you afraid of the war before you fight? This envoy has told you that as long as we can firmly attract the Qin army, our elite army ambushed in the dark will launch a fatal blow to the Qin army. At that time, we will cooperate inside and outside, and the Qin army will be defeated."

"Once this Qin army is defeated by us, the Qin army in Tongguan and Hangu Pass will definitely have a fluctuation in the morale after receiving the news. At that time, our main army will attack fiercely from outside the pass. After the two passes are broken, our army will march straight into the city of Chang'an. Even if the Qin State is immortal, it will be destroyed. His Majesty the Emperor of our country has promised to give you Yan'an Prefecture and Yulin Prefecture as your fiefdom and grant you a king. At that time, you will be the real king, not comparable to the current grass-headed king."

The envoy's expression was full of bewitching and inciting when he said these words. The originally panicked expression of Gao Bei's expression became firm again, and even showed a look of yearning.

"You really want to be the king? Hahaha, I didn't expect that my Gao family can also produce a king. Special Envoy, don't worry, you must defend the city well, and you will definitely not ask the dog army to capture the city."

The high-bearded chest tempted by the king's lord made a loud bang. The Wei envoy smiled on his face, but he looked very despised.

Even this kind of person is worthy of being a king, at most he is a mountain king.

When the Qin army in front of you is defeated, your so-called "Black King of Hell" will be completed.

Regarding the "Zhao Army", the Wei special envoy did not tell the truth to Gao Huzi, but fooled Gao Huzi, which was the elite troops secretly sent by Wei to assist Gao Huzi.

If not, Gao Bei'er would have run away.

At this time, in Yan'an City, Zhang Tonghe, the commander of the Imperial Legion Musketeer, brought 6,000 musketeers into the houses hidden near the South Gate in the city.

The troops of other imperial legions led by Tan Lun himself were on standby in a valley southwest of Yan'an City.

These two teams will not appear until the critical moment.

As long as Tan Lun and the Wei envoy knew about all this, Gao Huzi only knew about it.

What the special envoy of Wei State didn't know was that as early as three days ago, the soldiers of the Imperial Legion from two divisions quietly walked around a valley north of Yan'an City and stood by.

Everyone wants to treat others as prey, but there can only be one hunter.

After resting in the city for a night, cutting down trees and creating enough siege equipment, Lin Yi ordered the siege to start siege after breakfast the next day.

For a moment, the sound of killing on the city and under the city was shocked.
