Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 829 Nanyang Siege

That night, Zhang Shun was ready and made an appointment with Xiao Qinhu to attack the officers and soldiers together.

At Yin o'clock the next day, the moonlight was slightly brighter.

The south gate of Nanyang City suddenly opened, and Xiao Qinhu led more than a thousand elites to file out.

Since all the cavalry were taken away by Zhang Shun, Xiao Qinhu simply abandoned his horses himself, and everyone walked out with their horses in their hands.

After walking for two or three miles, the officers and soldiers camp was clearly in sight. I saw several high platforms standing outside the camp, with three sentries standing on each of them, shadowy figures taking a nap against the railings.

Xiao Qinhu took out the tiger tendon bow, twisted three long arrows, reached down and found the right position, and shot the three arrows "swish, swish, swish".

The three arrows hit the throats of three soldiers almost at the same time.

Three soldiers on one of the high platforms couldn't help but cover their throats and "cluck." They tried to shout, but their throats were cut, and they were unable to issue a warning, so they fell limp to the ground.

Because Xiao Qinhu had chosen the angle, no soldier fell from the high platform, and no one else noticed the attack on the sentry post.

Immediately, Xiao Qinhu followed the same pattern and defeated three or five sentry posts of officers and soldiers before ordering his soldiers to continue touching it.

Although everyone was accustomed to this, they were still amazed by him.

Experts have more expert hands, and experts' actions are extraordinary.

Xiao Qinhu's subordinates are all elite "Mao Gourds" in western Henan. They are good at bows, arrows and spears. Now when they see his "Three Chains", they are all amazed and admired.

Not long after, everyone came near the camp gate. The gatekeeper was confused when he suddenly saw a group of people rushing toward him in darkness, and he couldn't help shouting at the top of his lungs.

Although this time Xiao Qinhu still shot his arrows like a god and knocked down three or five people. However, there were too many soldiers guarding the gate and they woke up the sleeping officers and soldiers for a long time.

Suddenly the officers and soldiers camp became noisy, and a group of people were scurrying around like headless flies, making a mess.

After the front gate of the officers and soldiers camp was burned down by the rebels, it was replaced by a new fence. How could it stop the rebels?

Xiao Qinhu ordered his sword and axemen to come forward and cut open the fence with three strikes, five cuts and two cuts. He rushed in and killed everyone he saw and burned the tents he saw. He rushed back and forth and shouted loudly: "Taixing Xiao Qinhu is here, Tang Dynasty Hui comes to die!"

Tang Hui was sleeping peacefully in the Chinese army tent. When he heard the sound, he thought he had a nightmare, so he reached out and slapped himself. He only heard a clear "pop" sound, and his face suddenly hurt, and then he reacted.

He quickly called his guards, hastily put on his clothes, grabbed a sword, and went to find the Tang King Zhu Yujian.

At this time, Zhu Yujian had already finished dressing, holding a quick gun, and was about to come to find Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, guarded by several soldiers.

The two of them bumped into each other and exchanged a few words. Then Tang Hui probed: "If the tiger doesn't die, I will have no place to bury him! Now this 'Ten Evil Generals' is so brave, who can control him?"

As soon as Tang Wang Zhu Yujian heard this, he knew that this guy wanted to quit. His Tang Palace is still in the hands of "shun thieves", how can he give up so easily?

He couldn't help but remind: "Fujun, as a feudal official, is in charge of one side. Now he leads a large army to surround the thieves. If he encounters a small setback, he will return to Huguang."

"Those who know say you are old-fashioned and stubborn, but those who don't know say you are afraid of thieves. There are even some young people in the court who are making noises and criticizing you for being afraid of the enemy and not fighting. What can be done about it?"

When Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, heard this, he immediately became silent.

He shouldn't have paid attention to the cheater Fu Zonglong, the governor of Henan, otherwise he wouldn't be in this dilemma today.

Although the "Shun Thief" is extremely powerful and difficult to control, if he concentrates on defense, he may not be able to keep Huguang out.

As of now, there is really no other way. Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, had no choice but to take Tang Wang Zhu Yujian to temporarily avoid the thieves' attack, and ordered You Shiwei's closed-door cavalry behind the Chinese army camp to come to help in the battle.

Shanhaiguan's Guanmen cavalry have been fighting against Liaodong's Houjin all year round, and their vigilance is unparalleled by the Huguang soldiers.

When the rebels and officers and soldiers were fighting in the Chinese army camp, You Shiwei had already organized his team and was ready to fight at any time.

When the order from Huguang Governor Tang Hui arrived, You Shiwei waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go and give the 'thieves' some color, so that the court will know that we are not just freeloaders!"

At that time, Xiao Qinhu led his soldiers in a rampage and chaos in the military camp of the officers and soldiers.

After the cavalry led by You Shiwei's cavalry arrived, they found that they could not directly participate in the battle.

After thinking for a while, he ordered the closed-door cavalry to surround the entire Chinese army camp.

He expected that even though the soldiers of the Defensive Army's attack were elite, they would eventually get tired. You Shiwei planned to surround the rebels first and wait until they were unable to fight before fighting again.

It's just that what he thought of, actually Xiao Qinhu also thought of it. If Zhang Shun hadn't come to his rescue, how would he be willing to put himself to death?

The two sides fought fiercely for an hour, and it was getting dark. The soldiers were getting tired and the situation was getting more and more dangerous. Some people couldn't help but ask: "General Xiao, why hasn't King Shun arrived yet? Could it be that he has abandoned us?"

"That's nonsense. King Shun is a trustworthy person. How could he lie to me? He must have been delayed. Everyone just waits for a moment!" Xiao Qinhu scolded him after hearing this.

Having been with Zhang Shun for a long time, Xiao Qinhu knew that his third brother was not a light-hearted person, but his brother had nothing to say to his own people, which is quite interesting!

Therefore, he did not believe that Zhang Shun would deliberately dazzle him, but he was a little worried: Did he fall into the tactics of the officers and soldiers to lure the tiger away from the mountain?

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Chinese army camp gradually dispersed, and there were fewer and fewer people. Instead, the closed-door cavalry gradually appeared in the camp, and the elite rebel army, which was mainly infantry, had less and less room to move.

As a veteran general on the border, You Shiwei respected heroes quite a bit. He was also greedy for a fierce general like Xiao Qinhu, so he couldn't help but take two steps forward and shouted: "What a good man, why don't you serve the country and become a thief instead?"

His answer was a long arrow, nailed right to his throat. If he hadn't been protected by a neck protector, this arrow would have killed him.

You Shiwei couldn't help being shocked and angry, and ordered with a stern face: "If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a fine drink. Cut it into meat paste for me and feed it to the dogs later!"

The closed-door cavalry then swarmed up, surrounded the rebels, and fought to the death.

The rebels were quite exhausted after fighting fiercely for half a night. Fortunately, there were many obstacles in the camp and the cavalry could not charge. The rebels could rely on the structures to defend.

Just as the two sides were fighting inextricably, the earth suddenly trembled.

Earth dragon turns over? No, this is the enemy's cavalry! You Shiwei reacted immediately.

It turned out that Zhang Shun was encamping in the north of the city. When he went to the south of the city to join Xiao Qinhu, he ran into Xu Chengming's battalion who was attacking the north gate of Nanyang City.

Now that Xiao Qinhu has left the city to fight, Zhang Shun doesn't know how Nanyang City's defense is.

He was afraid of losing the city, so he couldn't help but make a decisive decision and directly ordered his cavalry to attack Xu Chengming's troops.

Xu Chengming was no match for Zhang Shun's cavalry. He was suddenly attacked, so he had to fight and retreat, hoping to return to the camp and wait until Zhang Waijia's Guanmen cavalry came to rescue him.

Zhang Shun kept the agreement with Xiao Qinhu in mind, and wanted to defeat Tang Hui's men in one fell swoop, so he divided his cavalry into several groups, galloped back and forth, and finally defeated Xu Chengming's group, and then led the army to the officers and soldiers camp in the south of the city.

It happened that You Shiwei led 2,000 people to fight fiercely with Xiao Qinhu in the camp. Only more than 1,000 people stayed outside the camp to prevent the rebels from escaping.

Zhang Shun gave the order and ordered Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and Zhang Yichuan to attack.

How could the officers and soldiers resist? Before You Shiwei could leave the camp, the officers and soldiers outside the camp dispersed.

Then Xiao Qinhu and Zhang Shun attacked from inside and outside, defeating You Shiwei's troops in one fell swoop.

Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, couldn't help but shouted when he saw this, vomited three liters of blood, and said in shock: "The 'Shun thieves' are treacherous, and the 'Ten Evils' are vicious. You Shiwei has mistaken me, and there is nothing I can do!"

Then leave!
