Seven days later, on the top of Xifeng City,

Li Zhongying was saying goodbye to Jia Cong, with a smile on his face and said kindly:

"Thank you General Jia for your hospitality these days. When we go back, we will definitely speak kindly to the general in front of the Holy Master,"

Jia Cong said with cupped hands:

"Thank you very much, father-in-law. I hope that your father-in-law will pass on the letters I wrote to the Jia family."

"You must, please rest assured, I will definitely take the general's affairs to heart,"

Jia Cong nodded slightly, then looked at Han Chao beside him and ordered:

"You lead five hundred people to personally escort my father-in-law for fifty miles and then come back."

"Yes,"

Li Zhongying smiled even more when she heard that Jia Cong was so considerate in his work.

When he was about to say goodbye again and leave,

Shi Hu, who had been promoted to the capital, hurried over with an anxious look on his face.

Seeing this At this scene, Li Zhongying's heart trembled.

Could there be some unexpected situation?

Could it be that the Jin invaded?

He secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that this was just his guess.

Shi Hu came to Jia Cong and cupped his hands and said:

"General, the spies have come to report that the Jin army was found twenty miles away, heading towards our Xifeng City."

Jia Cong asked with a calm expression:

"How many people are there on the other side?"

"There are about 30,000 people, and they also bring siege equipment, and they seem to be planning to take Xifeng City."

Poof~

As soon as Shi Hu finished speaking,

Li Zhongying next to him was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his face extremely pale, his expression Full of fear, his body couldn't stop trembling, and he murmured to himself:

"This is really bad luck. Why do I have to stay here for a few more days? If I leave after announcing the decree, I won't run into the golden man. What can I do? It's over, everything is over," he said with regret. Shi Hu slapped himself twice.

After seeing this scene, Shi Hu's eyes were full of contempt.

Li Zhongying looked at Jia Cong tremblingly and said:

"General Jia, the Jin people are coming this time fiercely and in large numbers. It seems that they will not stop until they achieve their goal. I think it is better to call for help quickly. There are only 5,000 people in the city and it is impossible to defend it."

As soon as he finished speaking,

Shi Hu suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist and put it on his neck, saying coldly:

"If you dare to disturb the morale of the army before the battle, I will chop you down."

The coldness coming from his neck made Li Zhongying's body tremble even more, and his teeth couldn't stop chattering as he said:

"I am telling the truth, General Jia has less than 5,000 men under his command, but the Jin people have more than 30,000 people, how can they be their opponents?"

Shi Hu said coldly:

"General Jia was able to capture the city garrisoned by 18,000 men with only 500 men. Now it is easy to defend the city."

"Shi Dutong, General Jia captured the city through trickery last time. How could the Jin people be fooled twice in a row? Besides, this time we are defending the city. How can we withstand 30,000 people?"

"Dare you say it! Seeing that

Shi Hu really planned to kill Li Zhongying,

Jia Cong waved his hand to signal him to take the knife back, and then asked:

"Do you know who the opponent’s general is?"

"General Qi, these 30,000 people are all from the Zhenglan Banner. The banner owner is Shuerhaqi, the younger brother of the Great Khan of the Jin Dynasty, and the smaller banner owner is Daishan, the son of their Great Khan."

Hearing this,

Jia Cong's eyes lit up. , looked at Li Zhongying next to him and said:

"Eunuch Li, you have come all the way here twice, and I don’t have any good gifts for you. Why don’t I give you the heads of Shuerhaqi and Daishan as parting gifts?"

Li Zhongying trembled in fright. General Jia dared to say anything.

He didn't want to ask for help quickly. He actually dared to think about cutting off the heads of Shuerhaqi and Daishan.

It was simply a wishful thinking.

Li Zhongying said in a pleading tone:

"General Jia, hurry up and ask for help from the nearby Daqian troops. If you are surrounded by the Jin people later, I'm afraid it will be too late,"

Jia Cong said with a smile:

"There are only 30,000 people, and I will let them never come back."

Li Zhongying saw a glimmer of hope for survival in despair, and his eyes lit up and he said:

"General Jia has another plan to defeat the enemy?"

"Of course, I have 5,000 men under my command, so killing 30,000 of them is not easy," he said, looking at Shi Hu next to him:

"Pass the order and ask the brothers to be prepared and follow me to take the initiative to go out of the city to meet the enemy." As soon as these words came out, even Shi Hu, who had blindly trusted Jia Cong, was stunned for a moment:

"General, we have a good location to defend the city, shouldn't we wait in the city for them to die?"

"Do as I say, you lead two thousand men to garrison in the city, and I will lead the rest to go out to meet the enemy. My father-in-law will watch from the top of the city as I take off the heads of Shuerhaqi and Daishan."

Only taking 3,000 people?

What is the difference between this and committing suicide?

Li Zhongying has become completely desperate.

On the other side, more than 30,000 gold people came straight to Xifeng City in a mighty manner.

The leaders were Shuerhaqi and On behalf of Shan, both of them were wearing armor and riding horses at the forefront.

"Daishan Beile, the people are very cunning. They know that we are leading 30,000 people to attack Xifeng City this time, but they only have 5,000 people in the city. I am afraid they will not be able to hold on and wait for reinforcements. We must capture Xifeng City in a short time. Otherwise, when their people arrive, they will attack us from both front and back, and we will definitely be defeated." Although Daishan is only a small banner leader, he has already been named Guyingbatulu because of his bravery and prowess in battle.

Even Shuerhaqi, a Zhenglan The banner master did not dare to underestimate him.

After hearing his uncle's words, Dai Shan showed an arrogant smile on his face:

"Don’t worry, uncle, I already have a plan. In this battle, we will not only capture Xifeng City, but also the surrounding cities, so that Father Khan can take a good look at who is the qualified heir to his Han throne."
