And at the foot of the city, Sun Chuanting saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction.

"That should be enough. They can't hold out for much longer." Sun Chuanting said to Qi Yuangong, "It looks like everything is going well. We can have dinner in the city tonight."

Qi Yuangong was happy to win. However, after today's battle, he had a new understanding of Sun Chuanting. This Lord Sun was extraordinary, and he also earned Qi Yuangong's respect.

Qi Yuangong smiled and said, "Since you are in charge of the overall planning, there will be no problem."

"I can't say I'm in control of the situation. There's still a battle to fight." Sun Chuanting said with a smile, and pointed to a place not far away. He saw the Sang brothers running back in embarrassment.

The two men came to Sun Chuanting and stopped. The fat man Sang Ren was breathing heavily, and Samba beside him didn't look very happy either.

Upon seeing Sun Chuanting, Samba quickly said, "Your Excellency is indeed very foresighted. There was indeed an ambush. We walked ten miles out, but found nothing. We walked all the way out to thirty miles before we spotted anyone, and then they followed us. Fortunately, we ran fast, otherwise we would not have returned alive to see you, Your Excellency."

"Well done." Sun Chuanting patted Samba's shoulder and asked seriously, "How many troops do they have?"

"It looks like there are about 10,000 people." Samba said quickly.

After hearing this, Sun Chuanting breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at Qi Yuangong and said, "These people should be here to rescue Luzhou City. Now we have two choices."

"One is to give up the advantage, withdraw our troops, and then wait for the enemy to attack. This approach is safer. We won't be caught off guard, nor will we be attacked from two sides."

"The second method is to fight on two fronts. Don't worry about what's happening in the city. I'll leave these 10,000 troops to you."

Qi Yuangong looked at Sun Chuanting and said with a smile, "It's not easy for us brothers to keep watching them fight. All the credit has been taken away by others. Leave these ten thousand people to me and I will take care of them all."

"Okay, go ahead." Sun Chuanting said with a smile.

Qi Yuangong and his men set up their formation on the spot, waiting for the other party to arrive.

Luzhou City, on top of the city wall.

Seeing the Ming army lined up not far from the city, Fan Hu was overjoyed.

Although they were beaten back step by step and seemed about to be forced to retreat from the top of the city, he still felt happy.

Running to She Yin's side, Fan Hu hurriedly said, "Young Master, my elder brother is here!"

After hearing this, She Yin's face was full of surprise. He stood up and asked, "Where is the person?"

She Yin had just been preparing to flee. As soon as the Ming army took the city wall, he would lead his men out of the city from the other side. He didn't want Luzhou City anymore. His father was the king, and he couldn't throw his life away here.

Now that we hear that Fan Long is here, this is our chance to turn defeat into victory.

"The Ming army has used all its main forces to attack the city. Only five or six thousand people are left. I just saw them forming up. Apparently, our reinforcements have arrived." Fan Hu said excitedly, "As long as my eldest brother can defeat their five thousand men, they will have to withdraw their men from the city walls, and we can turn the tide."

After hearing this, She Yin was overjoyed and quickly said, "Spread this good news immediately and tell the soldiers below that as long as we hold on a little longer, we will be able to break out of the city. You go and supervise the battle in person, and you must hold on!"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Fan Hu agreed and quickly took his men to supervise the battle.

At the foot of Luzhou City, Qi Yuangong could already see the silhouettes of the rebels on the opposite side. Apparently, the other side also knew the situation in Luzhou City, which was why they sped up their march.

In front of the rebels, Fan Long's face was solemn.

He withdrew his troops thirty miles in order to avoid being discovered by the Ming army. However, he did not expect the Ming army's scouts to come up to him, and he chased them all the way but was unable to eliminate them.

Scouts were sent along the road, only to discover that Luzhou City was already in imminent danger. He had originally been thinking about this plan, but now he could no longer care about it. Looking at the Ming army formation before him, Fan Long's face showed joy. At the same time, there was also a hint of anger.

Five thousand people? Are they planning to use five thousand people to resist me?

Looking at the fierce battle on the city wall and the Ming soldiers standing on the city wall, Fan Long knew that if he had arrived a little later, Luzhou City would have been lost.

Even if he came, he couldn't delay. If he couldn't quickly capture these 5,000 people and the Ming army's commander, he might not be able to save Luzhou City.

Fan Long raised his hand and shouted, "Charge forward and capture the Ming army commander alive. You will be promoted three ranks and rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!"

After saying this, he waved his hand violently.

The soldiers gritted their teeth and rushed towards the Ming army.

Qi Yuangong stood in front of the formation, leaning on his sword, looking at the rebels rushing towards him with a sneer on his face.

It is really ridiculous to see infantry charging without cavalry.
