"There is still a surplus in the three cities," Lu Xuanyi admonished, "or let the people in and fight against the city?" ”

"Yes, let the people go into the city, even if they sleep on the streets...", someone chimed in.

"No, Nan Yan must not give up." Chen Gongju's face was slightly gloomy and said, "If you lose Nanxi, not only will hundreds of thousands of people not be protected!" Haikou drove straight in, and the eight outer towns such as Zicheng, Dongcheng, Xicheng, Fuxu, and Shimen could be completely cut off. We can't save each other from the left and right, but the Haikou can choose a city to attack at will, and use the iron barrel cannon to bombard the city, and these cities in Guangzhou may not be able to be saved! He paused slightly, looked at the streets and alleys of Nanxian that were already full of corpses, and the large number of regimental training strong men gathered in the camp under the city, and said in a low voice, "I don't know how many of these crowds gathered from all directions are the internal response of the Haikou Kou, and they must not be put into the city!" ”

Lu Xuanyi looked at the market outside the city, which had become a mess, sighed, and said in a low voice: "The people outside the city ...... It's a pity, and it's even more a pity that after this battle, most of the clear stream seeds in my Guangzhou may wither. Brother Chen, you still think about the future of our society and keep some seeds of reading for the local area. He shook his head, his face sad.

With the ferocity of the Haikou, defend Haicheng and Nanshi repeatedly lost, the sacrifice of the scholars and strong men in Guangnan is also extremely heavy, almost every scholar in the society has an acquaintance who was ordered to lead the regiment, after a few days of bloody battles, the clear stream in the city can be called a family mourning, everyone wears filial piety. In order to restrain the scattered strong men, the Guangzhou government had to use the state and county scholars as the heads of the capital and the commander-level officers. These scholars are far more loyal to the court than ordinary people, they have been serving as the chief of the capital, regimental training officers and other positions, many people have also read the military books written by Zhao Xingde, most of them are just talking about the army on paper and do not know how to work, restricting dozens of strong men to obey orders or do it, but after one confrontation, the casualties of the state army are much more tragic than those of Haikou.

"If the skin doesn't exist, the hair will be attached?" Chen Gongju cut the railway, "I call myself a clear stream, how can I not know how to sacrifice my life for righteousness?!" They took the first step, and at the last moment, I filled in the state of Zhizhou, which was not impossible! The speed and fierceness of Haikou's offensive far exceeded his initial expectations, and the South China Sea Sailor has not appeared, and in the past few days, Chen Gongju's mood has become heavy day by day. In the past few days of siege, no matter how critical the situation outside is, Chen Gongju is always calm, as if he is sure that Haikou will be defeated. Everyone also speculated whether he had other arrangements, and when they heard that he was planning to die with the city, some people's hearts sank, but more people were deeply moved, and immediately responded: "I am willing to follow the lord!" "I am willing to fight to the death with my lord!"

"Good!" Chen Gongju slapped the head of the city hard, "I'd rather be a broken jade than a complete tile!" ”

"It's better to be broken than to be complete!" The morale of the officers and soldiers at the head of the city was greatly boosted, and they raised their swords together and shouted, "It is better to be broken than to be broken!" ”

The shouts soon spread to other parts of the city, and countless people shouted in unison: "It's better to be broken than broken!" ”

"It's better to be broken than to be complete!" The shout overpowered the roaring cannons and spread far away......

"It's better to be broken than to be complete!"

The sound reached a thatched hut in Nanyan, where more than 40 strong men sat and lay in all directions. However, most of the people were gray and bloodstained, they had been outside the city for more than half a month, and they knew that the brick house could not avoid the round iron bumps smashed down from the sky, but because the masonry flew in order to increase the casualties, so they simply chose a thatched hut with almost no roof. When he was not in battle, the strong man's eyes did not roll, and he sat like a dead man. This improvised regimental training is a total of 100 people, according to the pre-agreement, only need to go out of the battle three times or cut off a head, the strong man can get 20 runs, people can return to the city camp to rest, if you cut off more than two enemy heads, you can be selected into the Xiang army, enter the urn city to rest, cut off three heads, you can choose to join the forbidden army, get military salary, you can also enter the city to reunite with your family.

After several battles, these strong men knew that it was difficult to cut off the heads of the thieves, and they were more likely to be cut off by the thieves.

A strong man who has never been killed by a pig is indeed difficult for some strong men to compete with the ferocious Haikou and cut off people's heads.

"What a bunch of pigs," Liu Sanqi thought stupidly, "if you want to die, you will die yourself." ”

He lowered his head and scratched his fingers on the back of the knife, not daring to let people see the fierce light in his eyes.

If the government does not let the people enter the city, he will make a noise to rebel, if the government lets the people enter the city, he will connect with the inner and outer parts of the city, and the inside and outside should be combined to open the city gate for the king's big boss, and the big boss will eat soup, and he will naturally have benefits. Unexpectedly, the government only let the old and weak women and children into the city, and sent a group of scholars to train the strong men among the people into a team, and after a simple drill, they were driven into battle to fight with the pirates.

When he didn't go into battle, a strong man of a ten-person team sat down as a guarantee, Liu Sanqi had no chance to slip away at all, and when he went into battle, he had no eyes on the knife and gun, and the opposite side was not Donghai Ba's subordinates, Liu Sanqi wanted to run to the opposite side several times, but he was almost cut off by the same red-eyed Haikou. After a few days, Liu Sanqi worked hard to save his life, but he no longer dared to run to the other side. In desperation, he killed the two opposite, he was selected as the box army, and there was no freedom, but there was just more space for the box army. The heads of the two Haikou are forty times, and they are paid for thirty years in one Chinese New Year's Eve, but if one more head is cut off, he can be promoted to the forbidden army. If it weren't for the great change, the imperial court would never cut the forbidden army, and the annual iron salary of 50 guan army, drought and flood to ensure the harvest, this is better than when the death of the sea coward who can not enter the ancestral grave.

Whenever the night is quiet, Liu Sanqi's heart is extremely contradictory, and his attitude towards Commander Zuo is also a little strange, but he was praised by Zuo Nianyuan as "simple Shaowen" and appointed him as a captain. For this left-hand conductor who has read a lot of books and is full of "sacrificing his life for righteousness", Liu Sanqi is not only disdainful, but also has a feeling. After all, the human heart is flesh and blood, he turned out to be a fisherman, after falling into the grass, all he met were cunning and vicious people, and only by being more ruthless and vicious than others could he survive and get ahead......

"The surname Zuo, if there is a coming day, the uncle will spare your life." Liu Sanqi secretly thought, "If it doesn't work, I will give you a good time, and I will never let you be tortured piecemeal." He squinted at Zuo Nianyuan, with a sharp light in his eyes.

Zuo Nianyuan looked over as if he was aware of it, and Liu Sanqi hurriedly lowered his head to follow the pattern.

Zuo Nianyuan was only a simple and honest villager, and he didn't dare to look directly at Shangguan, so he smiled at him. In his eyes, this Liu Sanqi is clever and brave, and he can be regarded as a rare brave general. The pirates were wreaking havoc everywhere, and many cottages and granges were destroyed. If everyone can survive this war and Liu Sanqi has nowhere to live, no matter whether he is willing to join the army or farm, he can take care of him himself, and it can be regarded as cultivating a henchman.

"It's better to be broken than to be complete!" Zuo Nianyuan licked his chapped lips and said silently, "Life is short, like a white horse passing through a gap, and morality is not for Yao, not for death, for eternity!" It is the reason to sacrifice life to take righteousness, is to sacrifice the life of a short life, and put into the righteousness of eternity, although this body is martyred, but the soul and the righteousness are the same, the salary is passed on, thousands of years, in the righteousness, there is my soul in the righteousness, I Zuo Nianyuan how sorry this body is also ......" Thinking of the family members leaning on the door in the city, Zuo Nianyuan's heart couldn't help but soften, and then he thought, "How can heroes be short of breath and children are long?!" ”

He hardened his heart, put his parents and wife out of his mind one by one, his eyes turned awe-inspiring, and his eyes were slightly closed, like an old monk in meditation.

............

"Boom-" "Boom-" "Boom-"

At the wharf of Western Australia, the artillery kept spitting tongues of fire, and round iron cannonballs flew towards Guangzhou City in an arc.

If a cannonball that crosses the city wall falls on the open ground, it will inevitably hit a big pit, and if it falls on the roof, it will definitely go straight in, and if it falls on a person, it will either be dead or wounded, and the houses of the people in the city cannot stop the powerful cannonballs, and the people in the city do not dare to live in a house that cannot see the sky, and they are reminded to look at the sky with fear all day long, and whenever the cannonball flies through the air, countless people hold their heads and dodge.

Even so, there were still terrible shouts in the city.

Someone ran and shouted: "Ah-" "My mother-"

An old woman hugged the old man who had been hit by a cannonball, and cried hoarsely: "Come on, dead man-"

The child lay down next to the dead mother's body and cried: "Mother-I'm afraid ....."

Day and night, the sound of artillery did not stop for a moment, and the artillery brought great panic and pressure to both sides.

People in the city of Guangzhou were constantly killed and injured by shells, and shells at the head of the city also continued to fall near the pier of Western Australia.

Although the cannonballs at the head of the city are not accurate because of the distance, no one can say for sure, once it is a flying disaster, it will be the end of a mess of flesh. Therefore, the vast majority of pirates preferred to stay on the ship and sleep, away from the city's guns. After the big bosses of the various forces bargained, they sent people ashore to fight. Famaitu, the commander of the Great Eclipse Fleet, was particularly cautious, and for a few days, the number of times the Great Cannibal participated in the attack on Nanfang was only a handful. However, Qiu Darui and Famaitu reached an agreement to use the Great Food Warriors as elites, and whenever the Song Maritime Invaders and the official army were defeated and defeated, the Great Eating Haikou suddenly wielded a scimitar to kill, and the Song army was caught off guard, often suffering heavy casualties, and at the same time deterring the other Maritime Invaders.

After one bloody battle after another, the Song army outside the city suffered heavy casualties, its morale became more and more depressed, and its resistance became weaker and weaker......
