Xiao Tianlei and his group arrived at the city of Guancheng and met the command and secret code with the Shanyue soldiers at the city. The city gate was opened. Although the Shanyue soldiers at the city of Guancheng knew Xiao Tianlei and others, they still strictly followed the rules.

From the opening of Wild Boar Ridge, Xiao Tianlei has formulated many strict rules and regulations, and he has always strictly abide by them. In addition to improving the efficiency of his work, the purpose is to improve his discipline and make him really an army, and to avoid some mistakes. Now that he has officially launched an army to occupy Lingzhou, the army must be more formalized, and these regulations must be strictly abide by them. No one is allowed to be exceptional, so that some people will take advantage of loopholes and sneak into spies or frauds.

The city gate of Guancheng is a iron-covered iron-wood door, which is huge and thick. There are hundreds of door nails nailed on the door, which is extremely difficult to destroy. There is more than one door at the city gate. In addition to the two iron-covered iron-covered doors inside and outside, there is also an iron fence that can take off and land in the city gate hole. Because it adopts a more reasonable mechanical design, although it is heavy, it is effortless and very quick and convenient to open.

After passing through the city gate and entering the city, I saw a narrow passage, more than ten meters wide and fifty meters long. There were high walls on both sides. From the wall, you can attack from a high position. Even if you break through the city gate, it does not mean that you will break through the city. In addition to these, many designs of the city are designed to kill the enemy to the greatest extent. It can be said that it is a big pit, and whoever jumps in will be unlucky. However, many mechanisms and defensive equipment have not been installed at present, so the defense mainly depends on manpower. The fortresses on the mountains on both sides are intended to be used as turrets, but there are no cannons installed now, and only simple catapults are projected, and there is no problem with bombs.

The guards of this city were Zheng Biao and several other brothers, as well as hundreds of Shanyue warriors and soldiers. In addition, Xiao Tianlei also arranged the snow ape Nunu to stand by in the city, but so far, there was no chance to appear.

Because of the proper design, Guancheng has a strong defense and does not require too many people to guard at the same time. Therefore, everyone guarding the city was divided into several shifts to guard, and it would not be too tired. Zheng Biao and others were quite excited. Although they had reported some of the situations of guarding the city last night in the private chat system, they had already reported on the scene last night. When they met, they still told the situation of fighting with some masters who seized the city last night. Although those masters were far from threatening Guancheng's defense, there were also some thrilling battle scenes. Fortunately, everyone in Guancheng's martial arts are not weak, and they also prepared some strong bows and strong men who specialize in dealing with the warriors. Everyone had done similar drills before and responded calmly before they cleaned up the warriors who dared to seize the city one by one, and they had no damage. Even if there was any damage, Guancheng was equipped with trained medical staff and various medicines. Everyone had some first aid knowledge.

Xiao Tianlei, Zheng Biao and others were just talking, but someone came to report that someone in the city called himself General Zhennan, and brought some people to see the guards of Guancheng. When he heard that it was the new General Zhennan, Xiao Tianlei and others were in a little interest and got up to the top of the city. He saw more than a dozen people under the city, led by a short, strong red-robed general riding a curly black horse and watching the top of the city.

The red-robed military general is the new general of Zhennan, Song Shixiong. The Song clan of Liangzhou was born in the family of military generals. His ancestors were also one of the generals when the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty. Although the Song clan is a little declining, he is also a powerful man in Liangzhou. Song Shixiong has worked hard to practice martial arts since childhood, so his martial arts are naturally not bad. He served in Liangzhou before. Liangzhou has had many heroes and heroes and green forests since ancient times. Song Shixiong likes to make friends with heroes everywhere. He is very generous in both black and white and has a wide connection. Song Shixiong has also recruited a group of subordinates, and he is very in charge of troops.

There was a way, and he also pulled up a strong soldier. In Liangzhou and several nearby states, everyone knew that Song Shixiong was a group of arrogant soldiers and powerful generals. In the eyes of officials in the court, Song Shixiong was more than enough to deal with the Brotherhood. Another reason was that Song Shixiong did not belong to any faction, which was the result of the dispute between factions in the court. In addition, Song Shixiong was also a domineering person in Liangzhou. For the court, he was also a thorny figure. If Song Shixiong was the general of Zhennan, he would lose his foundation and drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf. It was a killer.

Song Shixiong also heard about the Brotherhood. Of course, what he heard most was how big the business of the Brotherhood was and how rich it was. Being the General of Zhennan and being ordered to wipe out the Brotherhood was a good thing for Song Shixiong. The Brotherhood was just a gang, and Song Shixiong often messed around in the world. What kind of person had never seen? Although there were all kinds of rumors, the Brotherhood was very powerful, Song Shixiong was a little dissatisfied. How powerful could a group of young boys be? However, which of the heroes and sworn brothers he recruited were not all skilled? Song Shixiong was confident that if he was not allowed to use it, he could shine and become famous all over the world if he brought his brothers to the battlefield in the northern Xinjiang region.

So, after receiving the appointment and decree, Song Shixiong took active action, not only led his subordinates, sworn brothers, and some heroes recruited, but also attracted many friends from the world along the way. Song Shixiong and his brothers had agreed to destroy the Brotherhood, so everyone divided the Brotherhood's industry and money and made a career in Lingzhou.

Song Shixiong himself was a military general, but he did not lack think tanks. The brothers in his clan had many strategists and wise figures. After obtaining some information from the Xuanwu Guard, he quickly formulated a plan to raid the Brotherhood, contacted the garrison in Lingzhou, and wanted to wipe out the Brotherhood in one breath.

In order to achieve the effect of the raid, Song Shixiong only brought some masters and think tanks and led some 3,000 elite cavalry straight to Lingzhou. However, when he led his troops over Nanyue Mountain and took a shortcut, there was a pass on the road ahead blocking the way. He had no idea that there was a pass here at the place, and thought it was a pass for the court, so he went forward to call the door. As soon as he signed up, he was attacked by the city.

The situation was unclear for a moment and could not pass through Guancheng. In order to continue the previous plan, he had to detour back to the official road leading to Lingzhou. As a result, he was blocked by another Guancheng, which was even more dangerous than the previous Guancheng. This time, before he could get a name, Guancheng began to attack.

At this moment, Song Shixiong and others also guessed that Guancheng might be the work of the Brotherhood. The situation in Lingzhou was different from the information sent by Xuanwu Guard and the original imagination. The original raid plan naturally could not be achieved. However, Song Shixiong wanted to ask the officials in Lingzhou whether they were blind and deaf. The Brotherhood had built so many Guanchengs? The Xuanwu Guards were also very powerful, and they were well-informed, and they didn't notice any movement? Judging from the new and old Guancheng, it should have been newly built, but how did the Brotherhood build these Guanchengs under the eyes of so many people, but there was no news? In fact, how to build them is no longer important, but what is important is how to break through Guancheng.

At this time, strategies such as fraudulent cities are no longer useful. It is difficult to directly attack the city, and there are great casualties, not to mention that there are no equipment and no craftsmen to build the city temporarily. The rest is the ants supporting the city, and the entire army will be suppressed, but there are also great casualties. These elite soldiers are Song Shixiong's family foundation, so he is reluctant to let it go.

Song Shixiong wanted to arrest these guys for questioning and punishing them, but first of all, he had to find a way to break through the Guancheng. He didn't believe it anymore. So many people would have no choice but to take a small Guancheng? However, they came for a surprise attack, and they were basically cavalrymen. They never thought they would attack the city, so they naturally did not bring siege equipment. However, there were not no way. Song Shixiong brought many masters this time, among which many had excellent martial arts skills. So Song Shixiong sent some masters to climb up the city wall at night and try to seize the city.

It is not uncommon to send some martial arts masters to capture the city. Some obstacles that are insurmountable for ordinary people are not a problem for martial arts masters. Just say, it may be difficult to jump on the city wall alone, but if someone helps, plus some equipment such as hooks and ropes, it is not impossible, but it consumes a lot of energy.

As a result, Song Shixiong was very disappointed. The defense at the top of the city was tight and it was impossible to see who was guarding the city. Most of the masters who climbed the city wall were shot and killed by shooting, or were knocked down and half-dead. Several of the masters climbed the city wall, but after a fight at the top of the city, there was no movement. The martial arts master failed to seize the city. Song Shixiong sent some people to cross the mountain and check the situation. As a result, the people sent out and never came back.

At this moment, Song Shixiong and his three thousand cavalry were all under the city of Guancheng. It was not impossible for cavalry to attack the city. At least they had no choice but to do so at the moment, and many ideas could not be realized. Song Shixiong was very angry, but he was not willing to retreat. It was a little too cowardly. Besides, as General Zhennan, he now has the responsibility to pacify some rebellions in Lingzhou.

Song Shixiong did not give up. He thought of other methods and tried for half a night. He used up all the methods. Except for his own people, many of them were killed or injured, and there was no effect. It was not conducive to siege at night. At this time, Song Shixiong's subordinates were also trapped and had no choice but to retreat and repair them while discussing countermeasures. Everyone had different opinions.

Until the morning of the next day, the crowd did not discuss a result. There were many ideas, but there were almost no one available. Song Shixiong and others were also exhausted and rested for a while. So Song Shixiong decided to come forward in person and try to find out the bottom.

"Is there a friend of the Lingzhou Brotherhood in the city?" Song Shixiong said with his fists. At this time, his tone was not like a general from the court, but rather like a person in the world.

Xiao Tianlei and his group discussed for a while, and Zheng Biao came forward as the guard of Guancheng and replied: "What general, what's the matter with me?"

"I am the new General Zhennan, and I am ordered to station in Lingzhou. Your brothers will build a Guancheng here to block the road of our army. What does it mean?" Song Shixiong asked, deliberately pretending to be unknown.

"Oh, you guy is pretending to be confused and too lazy to talk nonsense to you. Didn't you come for our brothers' association?" Zheng Biao directly exposed Song Shixiong.

Song Shixiong was not embarrassed at all and shouted sternly: "I am ordered to wipe out the Brotherhood. The army is approaching. How dare you resist the city and resist stubbornly! Your Brotherhood is rebelling!"

"What then?" Zheng Biao asked.

Song Shixiong was stunned and continued, "I heard that the leaders of the Brotherhood are all boys who have not grown all their hair, and a group of boys dare to rebel! You really don't know how high the world is!"

"What then?" Zheng Biao asked again, as if he had no idea of ​​the consequences of the rebellion.

Zheng Biao kept asking this, and Song Shixiong felt like a fool with a gloomy face, but continued to say, "Rebellion is a serious crime of raiding the family and extermination of the clan! Can a mere brotherhood stop the Daxia soldiers? Sooner or later, I advise you to abandon the darkness and turn to the light sooner or later, open the city, and let my army go over. I will definitely guarantee you nothing. If you wipe out the Brotherhood and make contributions, you will have no future! Don't worry, I, Song Shixiong, do what I said, "Who doesn't know that Song Shixiong is loyal and has a heavy promise. I will never treat those who follow me..."

Before Song Shixiong finished speaking, Zheng Biao interrupted impatiently: "Okay, okay... Say less nonsense, come to attack the city if you have the will. Say a few nonsense, and you want to surrender. Can you grow your head on your butt?"

Song Shixiong was furious: "How dare you insult me ​​like this, kid? You are seeking death!"

"You are making a fool of yourself and looking for scolding me, who are you blamed?"

"Uh..." Song Shixiong realized that he could not say anything about Zheng Biao and said angrily: "Boy, do you dare to come down and fight me?!"

"You think I'm as stupid as you! Just ask me to go down?! I won't get down, you're a bastard to death! If you come up, I'll fight here to wait for you!"

"..." Song Shixiong often messed around in the world and dealt with all kinds of people. It was the first time he met such a stupid boy. He had a strong mouth and cunning mouth. He was flushed with his face. He let out a long breath and said to the people around him: "Let's go back first."

Song Shixiong brought people to the city, said some scenes, and tried it, and he didn't expect to succeed. The main purpose was to bring a few people to observe Guancheng and find out if there were any loopholes. But these guys from the Brotherhood were really bastards. Song Shixiong thought to himself that if he was caught, he would definitely die ugly! He wanted to capture Guancheng more and more.

Song Shixiong returned to the military camp angrily. After discussing for a while, he came to a conclusion that the Guancheng in front of him was indeed newly built and very solid, but it was not without shortcomings. Guancheng was newly built, and the equipment for defending the city was not complete, and there were not many people guarding the city at the top of the city. It was not that there was no chance to break through. It should be said that now is the best opportunity. It is estimated that Lingzhou is not stable now, and the Brotherhood should be busy pacifying the interior, so he only sent some people to defend the city. If the Brotherhood sends more people and then complete the defense equipment of Guancheng, it would be much more difficult!

After hearing the inferences from everyone, Song Shixiong made up his mind. As General Zhennan, he had the rebellion of his brothers. Even if he reported it to the court and wiped out the matter, it would still fall on him. Instead of attacking Guancheng again, it would be better to find a way to break it now. Even if he could not invade Lingzhou, it would be better to open a gap to Lingzhou.

So, Song Shixiong led his troops to retreat for several miles and camped in a relatively open valley. This was not an ideal camping site, but there was no way, and no other suitable camping place could be found. Because the cavalry rushed, many things were not brought, food, supplies, etc., and they had to wait for the auxiliary soldiers to come from behind, so they could only set up a simple camp.

When Song Shixiong's entire army was camping, Xiao Tianlei had already been named as the fortress on the top of the mountain on the side of Nanyue Pass by Xiao Tianlei. Xiao Tianlei and Zheng Biao and others looked at the camp established by Song Shixiong's army. If Song Shixiong retreated like this, Xiao Tianlei had no other idea. Since he didn't leave, Xiao Tianlei would think about how to eat Song Shixiong's army. In fact, as long as the Shanyue army arrived, and then used some methods such as snow ape, Nunu, Jin ape, Wukong, bombs and other means together, they could completely defeat Song Shixiong's army head-on. However, Song Shixiong is not a fool. When the situation is wrong, he would probably lead people to run away directly, and that would also expose the trump card of the Brotherhood. After that, if the court sent a large army again, he would probably be prepared. Besides, the casualties of this kind of fight would probably be a lot.

In fact, there is a simpler way. Song Shixiong's army was rushing to attack, and there were not many food and supplies on his carry-on. He could completely allow other brothers from Guancheng to detour behind him, cut off their food and grass, and besieged for a few days. He would basically collapse without fighting, or he could attack him from the front and back.

However, no matter which strategy is used, personnel dispatch and deployment are time, and things are always changing. If Song Shixiong suddenly changes his mind and the entire army evacuated quickly, no matter how good the plan is, it will be useless. Xiao Tianlei can only wait for the opportunity and adapt to the situation. However, Song Shixiong seemed to be determined to conquer Nanyue Pass, and was quite anxious. The next day, he sent several generals to the city of Guan to fight.
Chapter completed!
