Drunk House Chapter 651

The soldiers of the Wei Dynasty suffered heavy losses, but they were unable to climb the city wall. And the city gate seemed to suddenly become stronger, and the siege logs slammed several times, but they only trembled slightly.

Great Wei Crown Prince Yuan Zhao was watching from the rear, his face was very ugly. Seeing Luo Yan leading people forward, it was equally difficult to deal with the hidden weapons shot from the city wall.

Nan Gongzheng rode back to the rear, and asked Yuan Zhao for instructions, "His Royal Highness, let's withdraw troops for now! We must find another way to decipher the hidden weapons on the wall of Heiyaguan, otherwise the soldiers will suffer more damage."

Yuan Zhao nodded, "Mingjin retreats."

With an order, Wei withdrew his troops and persisted in the siege for more than an hour, which did not cause any loss to Nan Chu, but caused Wei to lose many soldiers.

After withdrawing troops, Yuan Zhao summoned all the generals of the Great Wei Dynasty to discuss countermeasures in the Chinese army account.

Luo Yan rushed to the tent of the Chinese army angrily, and asked Yuan Zhao, "Why did His Royal Highness withdraw troops? Give me another half an hour, and I will definitely lead people to attack the city wall of Heiyaguan."

"After attacking the city wall of Heiyaguan?" Yuan Zhao looked at her, "Don't forget, there are one or two thousand martial arts masters on the city wall. This king has already told you that they are very powerful. They are the secret guards of the Cui family in Qinghe. People who are with ghosts."

Luo Yan said: "Kill them."

"You count the people in your hands, can you kill them? And they are not only good at poisoning and medicine, but also good at mechanism." Yuan Zhao didn't expect to lose the opportunity yesterday, and fell into such a passive situation today. Heiyaguan suddenly become indestructible.

"Then what should we do? Doesn't His Royal Highness continue to fight?" Luo Yan asked.

"Calm down first, this king personally brought troops to Southern Chu, so naturally he won't return without success." Yuan Zhao looked at her, "This king will discuss countermeasures with the generals, or you have a better countermeasure, You can also bring it up."

Luo Yan is not a brainless person after all, so he calmed down and asked: "Can the siege artillery destroyed by Nan Chu be repaired?"

Yuan Zhao shook his head, "It can't be done in a short time, it can only be transported back to Da Wei and re-forged."

Luo Yan asked again: "Does His Royal Highness only have six siege cannons?"

Yuan Zhao nodded, "Only six doors were built. I brought them to Nanchu to try their power, but unexpectedly, all of them were folded in."

It is not easy to build siege cannons. In recent years, there are only six of them, and two of them have been completely destroyed. The other four cannot be repaired in a short time.

Luo Yan sat down on the chair discouraged, and after sitting for a while, he listened to the generals discussing each other, and the discussion lasted for a long time, but no reason came out of the discussion. She stared at Yuan Zhao suddenly and asked: "His Royal Highness should be surrounded by a cloud of masters, why did he only bring such a small number of people? Where are His Royal Highness's people?"

Yuan Zhao said: "I stayed in the court, in order to ensure the stability of the court, my second brother is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

Luo Yan had nothing to say, and got up irritably, her injury was not healed, and she didn't stay to discuss with her, so she turned around and went to rest. She must conserve her strength, recover from her injuries as soon as possible, and avenge Hongying.

After she left, Caretaker Yuan looked at Nangong Zheng, "What can you do?"

Nan Gongzheng said: "His Royal Highness, what we need most at the moment is experts. One is to send experts to help, and the other is not to be afraid of damaging the soldiers, build up a human wall, and attack hard. Just now Miss Luo is right, she is carrying a poisonous weapon." The people of the medical gate, holding shields and stepping on ladders to resist, once they consume all the hidden weapons and arrow feathers set up in the organs in the Black Cliff Pass, there is a chance to attack the city wall, but they will only suffer heavy losses."

"Based on your estimate, how many Wei soldiers will be lost if the city wall is captured so forcefully?" Yuan Zhao asked.

"I'm afraid it will cost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan." Nangong Zheng said.

"If you lose 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, it will really be worth it for this king to capture Heiya Pass." Yuan Zhao said.

He Lanjue said: "Su Rong and her people were seriously injured in yesterday's battle. As long as the new group of people are dealt with, then Heiya Pass can be captured. Your Highness, send someone to send a letter back Da Wei, send people here?"

"It will take ten days at the earliest for the king to dispatch people from the Great Wei Dynasty." Yuan Zhao looked at Nangong Zheng, "Have all the people in your Nangong family withdrawn from Nanchu? Is there anyone left in Nanchu?"

Nan Gongzheng clasped his hands, "Yes, Your Highness, I will fly the eagle to deliver the letter today, but at least 500 people will come, but I am afraid it will take a few days."

Yuan Zhao nodded and made up his mind, "Tomorrow, we will attack by force. It would be best if we can take Heiya Pass. If we can't take it, we can only wait for your people to come with this king's people, and then attack the city. In ten days, this king will Believe it or not, Daliang's reinforcements will arrive."

Nangong Zheng nodded.

So, on the same day, two letters were sent from the direction of the Great Wei military camp, one was sent to the Great Wei, and the other was secretly sent to a stronghold of the Nangong family in Nanchu.

The retreat of the Wei Dynasty made the soldiers on the city wall of Heiyaguan very happy. This was the first smiling face that the soldiers showed after sweeping away the cloud in the past few days.

Zhang Yun also laughed, "Great Wei has withdrawn troops, the brothers of Guishamen have worked hard, let's all go back and rest!"

"I'm not tired." One person said: "This city gate and city wall can be strengthened a little more. Yesterday, work was rushed and the work was rough."

Zhang Yun smiled, "Da Wei withdraws his troops today, and tomorrow he may formulate a new strategy and attack the city forcefully. Therefore, listen to my suggestion, everyone has been tired all night. Now that Wei is retreating, take the opportunity to rest quickly. If everyone I'm not tired, I can make some improvements. Tomorrow there will be a fierce battle, and the heavy burden of defending the city will depend on you all, and you must recharge your batteries."

Everyone felt reasonable when they heard it, and immediately nodded in unison, "Alright."

Zhang Yun said to Cui Xingzhi: "Brother Cui, go and rest too! Leave today's post-war matters to me."

Cui Xingzhi was not too polite, he did not fall asleep yesterday, now that Wei has withdrawn his troops and defended the battle, he was relieved for the time being, and his exhaustion also surged up, and he said without hesitation: "Brother Zhang Yun, thank you for your hard work. I'll take your place this afternoon."

"No, you rest today, these things are simple, I will take care of them soon, and I will go to rest." Zhang Yun waved his hand.

Cui Xingzhi nodded, cupped his hands, and went down the city wall.

After Su Rong and Zhou Gu returned to the mansion, they did not go to rest immediately, but went to visit Ye Guixue, Xie Yuan and others.

Ye Guixue, Feng Ling, and Yinyue were still in a coma, but Xie Yuan woke up. Seeing the two of them coming in with someone's help, he asked weakly, "Da Wei attacked the city again?"

Su Rong briefly told him about the situation of the city gate, "Don't worry, Uncle Xie, today's city wall, with people from the ghost gate, will definitely be able to defend it."

Xie Yuan felt relieved when he heard the words, "That's good."

He looked at Su Rong, then at Zhou Gu, "I'm fine here, but you two are pale and pale, hurry up and rest!"

Su Rong really couldn't hold it anymore, nodded, and together with Zhou Gu, went back to rest.
