1159 , the siege of a single Zheng
If you cannot conquer Nanpi City and capture Liu Zhe, then waiting for Liu Zhe's army to arrive, then Geng Bao will die without a place to bury him.
When Geng Bao thought that he would become a prisoner, was humiliated by Liu Zhe and was slowly tortured to death, he was angry and anxious. Finally, he spitted a mouthful of blood and fell off the horse.
I don’t know how long it took for Geng Bao to wake up slowly.
Geng Bao opened his eyes and saw that he was in the camp. As soon as he woke up, someone immediately noticed it. Finally, Kong Shun and others came over.
"Premier Geng, you finally woke up." Seeing Geng Bao wake up, Kong Shun and others clearly showed a happy expression on their faces.
"How long have I been in a coma?" Geng Bao asked with his head covering his head when he remembered the incident of falling off the horse.
“It’s been more than a day.”
"What, it's been so long?" Geng Bao was startled.
"Where is Nanpi City?"
Geng Bao didn't care about anything else. When he heard that he was in a coma for so long, he became anxious and asked quickly: "Have you captured Nanpi City?"
"The siege has not started yet." Kong Shun and others answered.
"What?"
Geng Bao was stunned at first, then furious and asked, "Why?"
Kong Shun and others looked at each other, but no one spoke. Geng Bao immediately understood when he saw their actions.
They were frightened by Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe started a massacre of the rebel family on the city wall. The rolling heads of the land frightened them all, and they could not pluck up the courage to order an attack.
"Occurrence, must attack."
Geng Bao struggled, and Ji Zhe said to everyone: "Now order an attack immediately, so that Liu Zhe can't be proud."
"Can you win?"
Someone asked, and his tone revealed surprise and fear. Even after more than a day, the heads rolling down the city walls still caused them great shock.
"Can you win by waiting here?"
Geng Bao said angrily. He glanced at everyone, his heart sank. Many people were hesitant and afraid. They had already developed a sense of fear of Liu Zhe and had already thought of giving up.
"Don't forget, even if you retreat now, will Liu Zhe let you go?" Geng Bao said.
"What we are doing now is to mention this man's head. It's either Liu Zhe died or we died. Now, no matter what, we have to attack. Even if we use human lives, we have to conquer Nanpi City. Otherwise, everyone will die."
Geng Bao's words changed everyone's expressions again.
“It’s right.”
Meng Dai spoke out, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Premier Geng is right. Either Liu Zhe dies, or we die. Prefect Geng, please give the order, I am willing to take the lead and conquer Nanpi City in one fell swoop."
Geng Bao was relieved, but finally someone agreed with him.
"Since that's the case, I'll trouble you, Taishou Meng. You and Taishou Tao will be in charge of Nanpi City."
Most of Geng Bao and the others were civil servants, and only a few of them were military generals, so military officers still had to do the siege of the city.
"Don't worry, I will definitely capture Nanpi City." Meng Dai patted his chest and said.
......
"kill!"
The rebels below set up ladders and kept rushing up.
"kill!"
The defenders on the city wall kept fighting back, and the bows and arrows were shot down one after another. Soldiers held shields to block the bows and arrows shot from below. Someone exposed their bodies under the cover of the shield and pushed the ladder down vigorously.
The rebels below were numerous and continued to attack. Although the number of defenders on the city was less than that of the rebels, they had a superior geographical advantage and defended the city, and kept shooting down the attacking rebels.
"Master, this is not a solution."
Wang Xiu stood beside Liu Zhe and looked at the dense rebels below worriedly.
This was the second day of the rebels' attack. After receiving the goods on the first day, they continued to launch the attack the next day. There were many rebels, and even if Wang Xiu did not understand the military, he could see that if this continued, the rebels would have the upper hand in the end. After all, there were many rebels and they could take turns to attack, but the defenders were only a few people, and they could not compare to the rebels no matter how they took turns.
Wang Xiu was very worried when he thought of the defenders who were attacked by the rebels in the end because of their exhaustion.
Liu Zhe did not respond to Wang Xiu's question. He touched Liu Qi's head and asked, "Are Qi'er afraid?"
When it was the first time that Liu Qi saw such a fierce and tragic battle, his face turned pale. After hearing Liu Zhe's question, he shook his head and said, "Qi'er, don't be afraid."
Although Liu Qi's voice was a little distorted, his tone was very firm.
"Haha, don't worry."
Liu Zhe was very satisfied with his son's performance. He touched Liu Qi's head and comforted him: "They can't catch up."
"Really?" Liu Qi's eyes showed surprise and he stared at Liu Zhe tightly.
Although he said he was not afraid, it was fake to see such a scene for the first time, and he was a child. Now that he heard his father say no need to worry, he felt even more calm, and his admiration for Liu Zhe became even more serious.
"Yes, you can wait."
Liu Zhe gently stroked his son's head and said, "You follow your sisters and see how you can solve them for your father."
