Not long after, the news from the scouts reached Han Sui.

"Ma Teng launched a large-scale attack on the city, and the main gate of Huaili City was inextricably killed."

When Han Sui heard this, he stood up and laughed loudly: "Okay! While Ma Teng and Zhang Ze are fighting, our army can kill two birds with one stone and deal with them!"

Yan Xing was also very excited, "Brother Han, what should we do?"

Han Sui stroked his beard, thought for a moment, and then said: "I have two methods. One is to attack Ma Teng's camp, and first defeat Ma Teng, and then the city. The other is, our army attacks the south gate of Huaili, and breaks the city first.

, reject Ma Teng again.”

"The second option is better and more reliable!" Yan Xing suggested.

Han Sui also recognized the second type. It is difficult to attack a city but easy to attack a horse. Taking advantage of the two sides to fight, it is difficult to win first. In this way, it is not a problem to turn around and deal with the horse.

"Okay, I will personally lead the army to attack the south gate, and you will be responsible for the support."

Han Sui and Han Sui hit it off immediately and immediately began to discuss the subsequent invasion of the army.

"Ma Teng and Zhang Ze are fighting fiercely. Let's prepare first and advance secretly. When the two armies are exhausted, we can then take advantage of the situation and attack. We will definitely win in one fell swoop!" Han Sui suggested.

"Okay, okay!" Yan Xing nodded repeatedly.

Two days later, Fu Xie, Ma Teng and Zhang performed a great show as usual. This kind of soldiers had never experienced such a battle before. They had a great time playing, and some even proposed improvements for improvement.

You can't just throw the fake straw man from the top of the city. You have to fall down on the way up the city to be more authentic. He also boasted that he fell in love with a tree when he was a kid. It's a ten-foot-tall tree and it doesn't matter if he jumps casually. So

He jumped from the ladder and broke his leg, becoming the first wounded soldier in either army.

Ma Teng asked Fu Xie, "Brother Nanrong, how do you think Han Sui will attack?"

Fu Xie said: "It is difficult to attack a city, but it is easy to rob a camp. Naturally, it is difficult first and then easy. He will attack from other gates, and most of them will be the south gate."

"Why?"

"The war at Huaili is in the north. Yuan Xiu wants to support the south gate. It takes the longest distance and takes the longest time, which is most beneficial to Han Sui."

"Oh, I see, fighting really requires careful planning."

Fu Xie smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case. The attack was not carried out in the most advantageous way as imagined, but it had the effect of surprising people. Just like we know that Han Sui wants to attack the South Gate, we can take precautions in advance."

Ma Teng said he learned something again.

"Then will Han Sui attack the south gate?" Ma Teng asked.

Fu Xie looked at the drama at the top of the city, with "arrows" shooting out and "blood" dripping, and he said with certainty: "Yes!"

With Han Sui's temperament, he would definitely not want to take advantage of such a good opportunity.

A soldier suddenly ran over and reported: "Prefect, general, Han Sui's troops have appeared in the south!"

"It's here, it's indeed here! Brother Nan Rong is really clever!" Ma Teng said excitedly.

"Shou Cheng, go and prepare first. You, go and notify Prefect Zhang immediately!" Fu Xie ordered.

"Okay, this time, I will also copy his back to avenge Guguan!" Ma Teng said angrily.

The messenger took Fu Xie's order and ran straight towards the "battlefield", passing through heavy "rain of arrows" and braving the "rocks" falling from the city wall, climbed up the city wall, and walked straight to Zhang Ze.

"Prefect Zhang, Prefect Fu sent an order. Han Sui's army has arrived in the south and wants to attack the south gate. Please get ready, Prefect!"

Zhang Ze's bored eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately ordered: "Soldiers, the performance is over, the real battle is about to come! Follow me to the south gate to fight!"

A group of soldiers were engaged in a "fierce battle" and their morale was high. They followed Zhang Ze and marched to the south gate noisily, while leaving a small group at the north gate to continue the show.

Han Sui marched all the way, and the news from the scouts was that the battle at the North Gate was still going on, so Han Sui did not have any suspicion and even urged the soldiers to speed up their march.

Finally, when they arrived at the foot of Huaili City, they saw the garrison on top of the city having nothing to do, and at the same time heard the golden siren sounding.

Han Sui smiled contemptuously: "It's too late to warn now!"

Immediately ordered a charge to kill.

Han Sui's army carried ladders and rushed towards the city wall in small groups. Arrows began to fall from the top of the city, but they were sparse and did not cause much damage. Immediately, there were sounds of "enemy attack" and "enemy attack" from the top of the city. These reactions,

Everything was within Han Sui's expectation.

He sat quietly on the horse and watched his soldiers put the ladder up on the top of the city and began to climb up again. He couldn't help but feel happy, as if something big was about to happen.

However, what happened was counterproductive. When the soldiers came up in groups, huge boulders suddenly fell. Almost one stone could knock down an entire staircase of people. Moreover, this kind of counterattack obviously did not require anyone.

"There are not many people at the south gate, but the defense is so orderly. Zhang Ze is really difficult to deal with. Fortunately, Ma Teng dealt with him in advance." Han Sui felt a little lucky.

As the army continued to climb, losses were inevitable, and Han Sui knew it, so he did not slack off due to temporary setbacks.

After a while, Han Sui was surprised to feel that there seemed to be more defensive arrows. Apparently, reinforcements had joined the city. This was normal.

"Notify Yan Xingjun to join the siege!" Han Sui ordered, intending to increase his troops and let the stretched city defenders focus on one thing and the other.

Soon, Yan Xing's soldiers and horses also joined the siege. These Xiliang people were all good at riding horses and even had very strong climbing skills. However, the protection was too poor and they could neither block stones nor arrows.

This kind of hard-fought battle is very disadvantageous.

After charging for half an hour, Han Sui and Yan Xingjun did not even reach the top of the city. The number of soldiers lost was probably in the thousands.

Yan Xing came to Han Sui's side unknowingly and asked: "Brother Han, how many supplies have been prepared for the defense of the city? Why can't they be used up?"

Although Yan Xing did not directly talk about the issue of siege, Han Sui knew that Yan Xing felt sorry for his soldiers, and the casualties were close to the threshold in his heart.

"Zhang Ze is not a fool. He knew I was coming and it was normal to prepare in advance." Han Sui said, feeling like he was comforting himself.

But now that so many troops have been invested, if they don't capture it in one fell swoop, wouldn't it mean that the sacrifice of the former army was in vain? Moreover, once they stop, the defenders in the city will also be able to take a breather. They will re-prepare supplies to defend the city, and then they will have to start all over again.

Pass.

Han Sui couldn't accept it. He gritted his teeth and ordered: "The defenders' supplies are approaching their limit. Keep charging!"

"Hey, this rule is so damn tricky. No wonder Ma Teng failed to capture it even after attacking for several days!" Yan Xing complained.

One thing, Han Sui was right, the supplies at South Gate were indeed almost exhausted.

Rolling stones and logs caused thousands of people to lose the city wall, and piled up a high pile below.

Han Sui gritted his teeth and continued to order the attack.

Sure enough, during the next attack, soldiers began to touch the top of the city. Gradually, some people began to succeed in climbing first, and the battle for the top of the city began.

If we wait a little longer, the war situation will get better, Han Sui thought.

"Brother Han, look, my soldiers succeeded in attacking first!" Yan Xingle said.

Han Sui nodded and attacked the city in less than an hour. If everything went well, it could be captured within two hours. Compared with Ma Teng who had been fighting for three days, it would be much better.

Thinking of Ma Teng's tragic situation, Han Sui felt much better.

However, all of this was under the control of Zhang Ze. He personally commanded at the top of the city. With sufficient troops, he could decide when to let Han Sui's army come up and when to suppress it.

A messenger came to his side and reported: "Prefect, General Ma Teng is in place. They will launch a surprise attack from the southeast towards Han Su."

When Zhang Ze heard this, he shouted "Okay" and ordered: "Intensify the offensive and suppress the enemy!"

Zhang Zejun suddenly rose up, swarmed forward, and surrounded and killed the few Korean troops.

Han Sui's face suddenly became solemn as he saw that the battle line was pressed down again. This situation meant that reinforcements had joined the defenders. How many soldiers and horses were there in Huaili City?

Giving up now was definitely impossible, so Han Sui had no choice but to order an intensified attack.

Yan Xing glanced at the top of the city and said something strangely: "Brother Han, why don't you think that Huaili is not so easy to capture? Are we underestimating the prefect Zhang Ze?"

"It's not that simple, so what can we do? The arrow is on the string and we have to shoot it. What's more, now that the arrow has been shot, how can we take it back! If we continue to attack, I don't believe that he can block the attack of you, me, and Ma Teng at the same time."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves. A scout ran to Han Sui and gasped: "General, horse... horse..."

"What the hell? Take a breath and tell me!"

The scout took a deep breath and said, "Ma Tengjun is coming to kill us!"

Yan Xing immediately raised his horse, stopped beside the scout, and asked, "Say it again!"

"Ma Teng's army is coming to kill us!"

Although Han Sui was shocked, he quickly forced himself to calm down and wondered what was wrong with him.

Ma Teng's army is attacking? Then what is attacking the north gate of Huaili?

Divide the troops? This situation can obviously be ruled out. If Ma Teng's army divides the troops, they will not be able to attack Huaili City, nor will they be able to attack themselves.

Could it be a suspected soldier?

Yes! They are suspected soldiers! Han Sui seemed to have found the answer and asked the scout: "How many people?"

The scout shook his head, expressing his ignorance.

Han Sui became even more sure.

"Ma Teng must have known that we were also attacking Huaili, so he sent suspicious soldiers to interfere with us. Don't pay attention! Step up the attack!" Han Sui said calmly.

Yan Xing was also encouraged and said with a smile: "That's right, with Ma Teng's small strength, how dare he take the initiative to attack our two armies!"

At this time, Han Sui's rear army, Ma Teng, had already led the army to kill. Ma Teng personally led the charge. This kind of knight had been very excited in the past few days. Now he knew that he was attacking Han Sui's army, and he would probably succeed, and his fighting spirit was very high.

.

At this time, the state of Han Sui's army was somewhat unclear, so they were waiting for the order to attack the city. They were suddenly attacked and killed by surprise.
