Jiang Yuan was also very aggrieved during this time, he originally had 100,000 troops under his command, but after the great prince went out to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures a few days ago, he was miserable under the iron cavalry of Northern Qi, and there were less than 5,000 people left of 100,000 people.

What was originally a siege general has also become a defending general. The five thousand men under his command were demoralized and had no combat effectiveness at all.

Simply, Emperor Lingyue reorganized military discipline and replenished 30,000 soldiers to the front line.

Jiang Yuan's original 5,000 soldiers, plus the 30,000 soldiers added to the rear, plus the original 15,000 defenders of Baicheng, the total number was only 50,000.

And the number of Northern Qi troops on this expedition is known as 400,000 troops.

An army of 400,000 against a remnant of 50,000, how could Jiang Yuan not be worried.

Now Jiang Yuan pinned all his hopes on Xiao Jing.

Jiang Yuan asked again, "Lord Xiao, are you really sure that those soldiers will be able to gain strong combat power after entering the barracks?"

Xiao Jing said: "Lord Jiang, I am the most afraid of death, I am here, what else do you have to worry about?"

Jiang Yuan had no choice but to nod and say to the herald: "Go down and defend the city!"

In the mighty camp, the soldier Liu Er had just walked out of the training camp, and he was given a weapon-mortal spear.

Liu Er was originally a farmer in the countryside on the outskirts of Youzhou, but was drafted by the army when he became an adult.

Being drafted into a soldier is the most joyful thing for the family members.

Because the soldiers of the Xuanwu Kingdom have a monthly salary of five stones and two catties of salt.

Liu Er couldn't eat so much food alone, so he would deliver the surplus grain to his home every month.

This food can feed my parents and my two younger brothers.

Originally, everything was lucky, but everything changed after the Northern Qi invaded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

The gates of Yanzhou were opened by traitors, and the Northern Qi soldiers occupied Yanzhou without much effort.

Liu Er was the eldest prince's partial army, and his original task was to guard Youzhou.

But the other armies surrendered when they saw the army of the Northern Qi, and there was no resistance at all, and the army of 100,000 people surrendered when they said they surrendered.

The Northern Qi army invaded Youzhou again, and Liu Er had to flee while fighting with everyone.

Yanjing, one tragedy after another was seen by the soldiers.

The army of Northern Qi is like a wild wolf, whether you are a man or a woman, young or old, you will kill anyone you see.

The Northern Qi army also burned, killed, looted, and raped ** women.

In the process of escaping, Liu Er also found an opportunity to sneak home, hoping to escape with his family.

But I didn't want to answer the family, the door of the house had already been destroyed, the parents died tragically in the room, and the younger brother who was still in the second grade was also lying on the ridge, and his body was full of knife wounds.

The younger brother also held a wooden doll in his hand, this doll was made by Liu Er for the younger brother in the military camp, and the younger brother regarded it as a treasure and never left his hand.

On that day, Liu Erqiang endured his grief and buried his family's bodies in the field, and Liu Er cried loudly to the sky!

This is war! Brutal war!

Liu Er hated those traitors in Xuanwu Kingdom, and it was they who opened the city gate that caused the loss of Yanzhou, so that the army of Northern Qi was like no one, and directly attacked Youzhou.

Liu Er also hated the eldest prince, and the eldest prince was unable to use his troops, which caused the defeat of Youzhou!

But Liu Er's most hated was the wolf-like soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty, who slaughtered the people and killed Liu Er's family.

Liu Er wants to die, but before he dies, he wants to take revenge!

Liu Er returned to the team, and the team at this time no longer had the slightest combat effectiveness, and everyone's idea was to quickly retreat to Baicheng to save their lives.

As soon as I arrived in Baicheng, bad news came one after another.

The eldest prince was dismissed from his post and awaited trial.

The Great Prince mutinied.

Civil strife in the palace.

The Northern Qi army was about to arrive in Baicheng and so on.

Just when everyone's morale was at its lowest, when everyone didn't know what to do, just when many soldiers were planning to go out to surrender or become deserters, exciting news finally came.

Princess Changle was in power and eradicated the two princes and one party.

At the same time, Fengtang Hou (Xiao Jing) came to Baicheng with the disciples of the Guiyi Sect.

Guiyi Sect, the sect that has just been established in the Xuanwu Kingdom, although it has just been established, but Guiyi Sect has won the leader of the Kyushu Gang Sect Conference, and has masters above the grandmaster.

Liu Er, like the soldiers, was overjoyed when he saw Xiao Jing coming to Baicheng!

This was followed by the construction of the training camp and the construction of the arsenal.

Liu Er became the last batch of soldiers to enter the training camp.

The training camp is a magical structure where soldiers enter an otherworldly dimension.

In this space, there is all the equipment for military school training, and there is an instructor in it, who will train soldiers from the most basic links in the most systematic way.

And throughout the training process, Liu Er will not feel tired or hungry.

Liu Er thought that he had been in the training camp for a long time and had learned a lot of fighting skills, and when he walked out of the training camp, he realized that it had only been three days.

Liu Er is the same as other soldiers who came out of the training camp, and his temperament and mentality have changed a lot.

When they first arrived in Baicheng, they were demoralized, thinking about how to survive, and they didn't have the heart to fight at all.

Now, they are in high spirits, and all they want is revenge!

In the Baicheng school field, Jiang Yuan looked at the soldiers under his command and knew that what Xiao Jing said was not a lie, these soldiers under his command were not defeated divisions, but tiger and wolf divisions, such temperament, such combat effectiveness, they would win!

But Jiang Yuan still realized the gap between 50,000 and 400,000, and now he is focusing on defense.

Seeing the soldiers of Northern Qi getting closer and closer, Jiang Yuan immediately made a decision and immediately turned on the defensive mode.

Now send 3,000 pikemen to lie in ambush under the mound outside the White City, and then have all the archers and crossbowmen behind them prepare at the city walls.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the Northern Qi army arrived at the foot of Baicheng, and the crown prince Gao Huan personally took command.

The shields of the Northern Qi army were present, and the soldiers approached the gate of Baicheng step by step.

Jiang Yuan was not afraid of danger and shouted: "Release!"

Ten thousand arrows!

Seeing this, Gao Huan smiled on the horse and said, "What can a mere bow and arrow be me?"

Gao Huan has the confidence to say this.

Because the siege shields of the Northern Qi Dynasty are all made of black iron, which is a finger's width thick, ordinary bows and arrows are simply tickling.

But something happened that Gao Huan didn't expect.

The bows and crossbows of the defenders of the Xuanwu Kingdom not only have a long range but also are extremely powerful, and one by one they penetrate the shield through the armor of the soldiers behind the shield and shoot the soldiers through directly!

And it was not one soldier who shot through, but several.

After a while, all the forward troops of the Northern Qi were killed.
