    At night, Yang Xuangan, who was full of expectations, drove his troops to ambush outside Hongnong City and laid an ambush.

    Sure enough, the red lanterns from yesterday were lit up again as scheduled. Yang Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly drove his troops to the city again.  But when I arrived at the city gate, I found that the city gate had not been opened again.

    Yang Xuangan was full of suspicion and ordered someone to signal to the top of the city.  Unfortunately, the result was just like yesterday, no response.

    Yang Xuangan thought that the other party was delayed again, so he waited outside the city.  But he waited at the foot of the city for more than three hours, and it was almost dawn. He still didn't see the city gate open as promised.

    At this time, the rebels¡¯ subordinates had been struggling for two days in a row, and they were exhausted.  Many people looked at Hongnong City Wall and complained.

    The generals were silent and stared at Yang Xuangan.

    At this time, only Li Zixiong who could speak stepped forward and said: "Mr. Chu, we can't wait here any longer. Our army doesn't have much time. Why not take advantage of the unpreparedness of the defenders in the city and steal the opportunity?"  city."

    Yang Xuangan also felt that there was something fishy about this matter, and he was afraid that it was beyond his grasp.  Moreover, Yang Xuangan even felt that he might not have been tricked by this group of insiders.

    Seeing that there was no other way, Yang Xuangan ordered his people to take the opportunity to attack the city. At this time, a row of torches was suddenly lit at the top of Hongnong City, and the top of the city was filled with soldiers.

    Yang Xuangan was startled. He looked up and saw that it was Cai Wang Yang Zhiji who was on top of the city.

    Yang Zhiji said loudly: "My son, Yang Xuangan, you have fallen into my trap. Now our army will surround you, why don't you just surrender and capture me." The soldiers on the top of the city also laughed "haha".

    Yang Xuangan's face was flushed and he was extremely angry.

    Yang Xuangan stared at Yang Zhiji fiercely and cursed: "Young child, Yang Zhiji, I will kill you!"

    "You Yang thief, if you want to kill me, just go to the city. I'll wait for you in Hongnong City!"

    After Yang Zhiji said this, he did not waste any more words with Yang Xuangan, but let a few loud people shout and curse on the top of the city.  These soldiers were all ordinary people, and they used slang and curses in the countryside and in the market. However, they were also cunning and vicious, and the poisonous gas rolled back and forth in Yang Xuangan's internal organs.

    "Siege the city!"

    Yang Xuangan ordered the entire army to attack the city. At this time, Li Zixiong took Yang Xuangan's arm and said, "Mr. Chu, don't let the enemy get angry. Now the Duke of Chu is deceiving the people to go west. It's important to be quick when it comes to soldiers. If the pursuers are approaching, we can safely stay!"  If you can't hold the pass in front, you have nothing to defend when you retreat, and the people are scattered, how can you protect yourself!"

    But at this time, Yang Xuangan was blinded by anger and said to Li Zixiong: "Don't worry, old general, I only need one day to break through this city and capture Yang Zhiji. There will be no mistakes."

    Li Zixiong wanted to persuade him again, but Yang Xuangan stopped him.

    Hongnong City successfully aroused Yang Xuangan's anger, and of course had to bear the consequences of this anger.

    Tens of thousands of rebels surrounded Hongnong City. Although the rebels lacked siege equipment, Yang Xuangan was prepared to use human sea tactics to defeat the Sui army, so he ordered the rebels to attack the city without stopping for a moment.

    Gao Nie was previously worried that he had few soldiers and would cause a chain reaction, so he did not open the city gate and set up a trap, otherwise he would trap and kill a group of rebels.

    And because of the reason of luring the enemy, Gao Nie did not set up defenses outside the city, and there were only a few catapults in the city. At this time, the preparations of the offensive and defensive sides were half a catty to half a pound.

    Soon the rebels approached the city. The Sui army on top of the city struggled to pick up stones and threw them at the bottom of the city. Immediately, a group of people fell on their backs.

    But there were too many siege ladders, and soon rebels followed the ladders and approached the city.

    At this time, the defenders who had been prepared for a long time each raised their big ladles and poured boiling gold juice and boiling oil on the soldiers on the siege ladder.  The soldier immediately screamed and fell down the ladder after being poured on him, and his whole body was burned and ulcerated.

    Then, the archers who were prepared behind them raised their rockets and shot at the siege ladder that was soaked in boiling oil.  The siege ladder was ignited by fire, and immediately there was a sea of ????fire. The soldiers up and down the ladder were also attracted by the fire, rolling on the ground crying and screaming, and the screams were frightening.

    Seeing that the attack was not going well, Yang Xuangan mobilized the archers to attack the city.  In previous battles with the Sui army, a large number of archers were captured, and Yang Xuangan organized them into a battalion to provide fire support for the attack.

    This group of archers rushed dozens of steps below the city and began to scatter towards the city.

    Immediately a rain of migratory locusts descended on the city wall, weighing down the defenders so much that they could not lift their heads. Gao Nie immediately ordered his soldiers to take shelter in bunkers.

    At this time, the archers under the city stopped planning, and the siege troops continued to attack.  The defenders who had been hiding also came out to fight.?The two sides began to strangle on the city wall.

    The rebels¡¯ siege equipment was still too poor. Although they had a large number of people, they could never give full play to their advantages.

    After being repulsed by the defenders again, General Ying Yanglang, one of the men in charge of the siege, came to Yang Xuangan in embarrassment, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Mr. Chu, we can't fight anymore, the brothers are too exhausted.  "

    Yang Xuangan's eyes were red, and without looking at the man, he said: "Come here, this man disturbs the morale of our army, drag him down and chop him down."

    "Mr. Chu!"

    There were guards who had already come forward and dragged General Ying Yanglang down to kill him.

    Everyone froze for a while, everyone knew that Yang Xuangan was going crazy at this time.

    "I tell my generals that anyone who fails to attack the city will be killed without mercy."

    At this time, Yang Xuangan was like a madman. He had lost his mind and wanted to lead everyone to a dead end.

    The troops rushed to the top of the city in order. When one mansion suffered all the casualties, they moved on to the next. They didn't care about the casualties for a long time.  At this time, Yang Xuangan, who was looking at the fierce battle at the top of the city, suddenly ordered the archer team to attack the city top indiscriminately, and must suppress the Sui army on the top of the city.

    Everyone was shocked.

    Wang Bozhong advised Yang Xuangan: "Mr. Chu, all the soldiers are exhausted and their morale is low. If we continue to attack indiscriminately, I am afraid it will cause chaos in the army."

    Yang Xuangan roared: "After breaking the city, if you don't seal the sword for three days, everything in the city will belong to the soldiers." But he didn't care about Wang Bozhong's advice.

    Soon, Yang Xuangan's order spread throughout the three armies, and the departments that were originally a little depressed suddenly became excited.  In this era of cold weapons, war has never been about faith, so looting can always boost morale the fastest.

    At this time, the archer troops came under the city wall again. When Yang Jishan gave an order, countless flying arrows were shot towards the top of the city.  Regardless of the enemy or friend, countless people were immediately hit by arrows.  Many defenders were shot, but even more rebels.

    Suddenly, the city was covered with corpses, and countless people fell to the ground and howled miserably.

    Everyone was stunned, and Yang Zhiji, who had been supervising the battle, even cursed angrily: "Yang Xuangan is crazy, really crazy!"

    Although this "mad dog" style of play caused heavy casualties to the rebels, the Sui army at the head of the city also suffered heavy losses.  The Sui army could not afford to fight against the rebels.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
