Daming King of Punishment

"Pour water on the ground! Everyone retreat immediately!" Bai Zhuo yelled immediately and gave a new order.

The guards who were transporting water to the city wall immediately poured the water on the ground.Snowflakes remained on the ground after cleaning, and the water flow immediately became extremely slippery.

In the blink of an eye, those cavalry rushed in, slashing left and right with the knives in their hands.But the horse's hoof stepped on the water and suddenly slipped, unable to stand at all.

For a while, those cavalry couldn't fill in at all.People outside the city also discovered this situation, and no one rushed in anymore.

"Rush over and close the city gate!" Bai Zhuo shouted when he saw an opportunity.

But as soon as he finished yelling, he saw that those people had given up their horses and rushed in on foot.

There is no way to close the city gate, they can only fight with these people.It's a pity that the power of the city defense can't be concentrated together, so they can only retreat while resisting.

"Listen, people, splash water on the streets and throw snowballs to resist foreign enemies together." Facing such a situation, Bai Zhuo didn't show the slightest panic. Seeing the guards retreating steadily, he thought of letting the people in the city retreat. People help.

Bai Zhuo's words soon had an effect. Obviously, these people also knew that if these people defeated the guards of the city defense, they would suffer disaster too.

All of a sudden, snowballs were flying all over the city of Jizhou, and a lot of water was splashed down from the roof.The street was already slippery, and it was impossible to stand for a while.

"The archers retreat, find a suitable position to snipe!" Bai Zhuo led the guards back and forth, issuing new orders to the archers.

The city gate fell, and they continued to retreat, which became even more troublesome.After all, if these people were allowed to enter the alley, it would be even more detrimental to them.

Seeing that he couldn't retreat, Bai Zhuo immediately ordered again: "Everyone stop retreating, stop them here."

"Brother Bai, why is there no Urn City in such an important military base?" Song Wuya only realized this at this moment, and he hurriedly asked.

Not only Jizhou, but also Yingzhou City does not have Wengcheng.And this obviously shouldn't be, but this happened.

How could Bai Zhuo have the time to answer Song Wuya's question, "I don't know either!"

It seems that Bai Zhuo is not very clear about this matter, he watched those thieves keep attacking, but because of the slippery reason, it was difficult for them to attack.

Fortunately, with the impromptu preparation just now, they stood firm, so they didn't let them rush in.

Bows and arrows kept flying over, and those thieves kept losing their hands, but there were too many of them, and some people kept coming here.

Such a situation is sad, and if it continues for a long time, it will definitely not be able to hold on.

"Bang the drum for help!" Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Bai Zhuo immediately gave the final order.

If there is no war, it is not allowed to mobilize troops without authorization.But now, Jizhou has been breached, and seeing that it is impossible to defend, that's the only way to go.

Not long after Bai Zhuo gave the order, the dull drum sounded one after another.

After hearing the sound of the drum, the thieves suddenly stopped attacking one after another, but retreated.

Just when they were about to be unbearable, these people turned around and ran away.

"It seems that they have escaped for the time being!" Bai Zhuo said with a heavy breath.

Soon those people withdrew as a team, and escaped without even picking up the corpses left in the city.

The city gate was opened from the inside and was not damaged. After closing it again, the exhausted guards immediately rested in place.

The people in the city cheered when they saw the bandits being repelled.

But at this moment, Song Wuya suddenly became suspicious. He had already thought of something before, but now seeing these people retreating, his doubts arose in his heart.

"These people are very problematic! Why did they give up the attack immediately in such a situation? Are they afraid of revealing their identities when reinforcements arrive?" Song Wuya thought in confusion.

Chapter 832 Extraordinary Confusion

?Chapter 832 Extraordinary doubts

Soon, the ins and outs of the whole thing became clear.

Indeed, Song Wuya and the others haven't tracked down all the thieves and bandits established. They took advantage of this critical moment to break through the city gate from the inside and open the city gate.

Now that such a situation occurs, it is already considered a blessing among misfortunes.Although many guards were killed and injured, at least the people in the city were not harmed in the slightest.

After dealing with all this, Bai Zhuo and Song Wuya returned to the government office.

"Huh!" Bai Zhuo exhaled heavily and sat down on the chair: "It's really a thrilling day, I almost fell!"

"Fortunately, Brother Bai, you stayed calm in the face of danger, so you resisted them." Song Wuya smiled and nodded to praise Bai Zhuo.

Bai Zhuo's performance today was very good, which made Song Wuya look up to him with admiration.At least in the face of such an urgent situation, he has been able to stand alone.

Bai Zhuo showed embarrassment on his face, obviously he was a little embarrassed by Song Wuya's praise.

Without waiting for Bai Zhuo to retort modestly, seeing no one around, Song Wuya expressed his doubts.

"Brother Bai, do you find it strange? As soon as the drum calling for reinforcements sounded, those people immediately fled without the slightest hesitation."

"Yeah! At that time, I also felt very puzzled. After all, I couldn't bear it anymore. I really had no choice but to ask for help. But I didn't expect that they would retreat like this at this time. Now I want to It's really a strange thing to think about." Bai Zhuo also expressed doubts about this matter, obviously he couldn't understand why.

"The reinforcements haven't arrived yet, have they?" Song Wuya asked.

The sound of the drum just now has sent out the message of asking for help, presumably there will be reinforcements arriving soon.

Bai Zhuo shook his head: "Yes, when the reinforcements arrive, I have to explain to them!"

Looking at the wry smile on Bai Zhuo's face, Song Wuya nodded and said, "This is a trivial matter, but what I saw today makes me have another doubt."

When Song Wuya said this, Bai Zhuo immediately said seriously: "Brother Wuya, tell me."

"Since Brother Bai came here to take office, these thieves have never breached Jizhou City again. But why did they succeed so often before? What is the difference?"

Finally, Song Wuya asked the question that made him feel puzzled.

Facing Song Wuya's question, Bai Zhuo also showed distress.After pondering for a while, he said, "Brother Wu Ya, I really haven't thought about this issue. Now it seems that this is really a problem. Logically speaking, the imperial guards did not participate, and the strength of the city defense has not changed at all. .In the past, why were they able to succeed repeatedly? Could it be because there was no magistrate?"

"I don't think this may be the reason. After all, even if there is no magistrate, this government is definitely not a decoration. What to do is left to other people to deal with. But at that time, when they came here, it was like entering no man's land. What?" Song Wuya looked at Bai Zhuo and frowned.

This question made both of them fall into confusion. Although it was very doubtful, they couldn't figure out the reason.

After a long time, the two did not come up with an explanation.And at this moment, reinforcements from outside the city arrived.

It has to be said that their speed is still very fast, at least there is no delay for too long.

Bai Zhuo hurriedly went out to greet him, and Song Wuya naturally followed beside him.

The reinforcements were just outside the city, and they rode on horses, and did not let the guards open the gates to come in.

Bai Zhuo went out of the city, and thanked the leading general: "Thank you, General, for coming to help. The Mongols have been repelled this time, and the general has gone for nothing."

Hearing this, the general was not annoyed. He nodded slightly and said, "Your Majesty is being polite. This is the general's duty. It is a great blessing that Jizhou has not fallen. I don't know." How about the damage in the city?"
