Yuan Yao and several people have been observing the attack of Li Shu's army from a high place, only to see that Li Shu's army was driven by desire, and the generals and soldiers in the army rushed towards Nanchang City like crazy demons.

After several days of fighting, the garrison materials in Nanchang City have been exhausted, such as feather arrows, which are difficult to manufacture and cannot be recovered, have already been used, and the defenders and soldiers watched Li Shu's soldiers and horses swept towards the city wall, and there was no way to stop them, until Li Shu's siege soldiers and horses rushed to Nanchang City, and then they launched a counterattack.

The city wall is full of wood and masonry obtained from the demolition of houses, the defenders of the city saw the enemy rushing to the city, and hurriedly lifted the wood and masonry and threw it, but the power of these wood and masonry is much smaller than the regular rolling wood and stone, and the formation of Li Shu's soldiers and horses is also relatively scattered, so the casualties caused by these wood and masonry to Li Shu's soldiers and horses are not too large, and they are still within the acceptance range of the besieging soldiers.

Li Shu's troops and horses were also prepared, seeing the defenders of the city outcropping, immediately a wave of arrow rain flew towards the city, dozens of defenders were shot by feather arrows and fell to the city head or were injured by arrows, under the help of the archers, Li Shu's troops and horses quickly took the ladder and began to climb towards the city, and the rear of the city car also took the opportunity to push to the city gate and began to hit the city gate.

"The enemy has landed on the top of the city, kill !!"

The defenders of the city saw that the enemy army actually climbed to the top of the city, and the soldiers hurriedly raised their weapons and went to the enemy army who climbed the head of the city, and the defenders were numerous, and soon the soldiers of Li Shujun who had climbed the head of the city were stabbed to death, but the soldiers and horses of Li Shu's department were already a little crazy, and the soldiers and soldiers were desperately moving forward for the wealth and goods in the city, and the defenders killed the first batch of enemy troops who climbed the city, and then more enemy troops boarded the city.

The two sides immediately launched a bloody battle on the city, the corpses of the soldiers of the two armies continued to fall down the city, as time went by, more and more Li Shujun soldiers boarded the city wall, the entire city wall was full of soldiers who fought each other, at this time, the city gate of Nanchang City, which stood for several days, was finally knocked down by the city car, and the defenders of the city gate who blocked the city gate before hurriedly flashed back, and the heavy city gate fell in the city gate hole, raising smoke and dust in the sky.

"The city gate is broken, brothers, kill !!"

"Brothers, kill, kill into the city, plunder the goods!!"

"Brothers, our family is at the city gate, don't let them in!!"

"Brothers, kill, stop them, kill them out!!"

……

Before the smoke and dust of the city gate cave dissipated, the soldiers of the two armies near the city gate were all shouting, and they killed into the city gate hole, and the enemy fought together with the blurred vision, the defenders in the city were smaller, and they were constantly slashed to the ground by the enemy in the melee, and they began to retreat one after another, Li Shujun saw that the enemy could not block the attack of his army, and immediately the morale was high, and he used his life more when he was fighting, and the defense line of the defenders was a little precarious for a while, but fortunately, the space in the city gate hole was narrow, The defenders were barely on the defensive.

The military academy on duty at the city gate saw that it was difficult for his soldiers and horses to resist the enemy's attack, and hurriedly climbed the city wall to ask Sun Ben for help, Sun Ben was leading his guards and Li Shujun soldiers and horses who climbed to the head of the city to fight together, the military academy searched for a while, only to find Sun Ben's traces, and hurriedly killed Sun Ben, shouting: "General, the city gate has been broken by the enemy's rushing city vehicles, and the subordinate troops are insufficient, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the enemy's attack, and please send troops to support the general quickly!" ”

When Sun Ben heard the shouts of the military academy, he slashed the enemy in front of him with a knife, and shouted: "Since your troops are insufficient, what are you doing here, don't you know how to fight to the death to stop the enemy!" The enemy army has already ascended to the top of the city, where do I still have soldiers and horses to support you, you quickly go down to the city and fight to the death, if you can't defend the city gate, you can die there in the battle! ”

When the military academy heard Sun Ben's reply, he cried and replied: "General, it is not a pity for your subordinates to die, lest you be unable to defend the city gate and be rushed into the city by the enemy, and there are still three hundred ...... hidden in the city."

Sun Ben glanced at the enemy army in front of him, and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, go down to the city quickly and defend it, otherwise I will kill you now!! ”

"In that case, the only way to repay the general with death !!"

The military academy shouted, and hurriedly ran down the city wall to personally lead the army to fight to the death with the soldiers and horses of Li Shusuo, and the soldiers and horses of Li Shusuo outside the city continued to pour into the city gate hole, and the defenders only had these soldiers and horses, as time went by, the defenders became fewer and fewer, and the city gate hole was going to be unbearable!

"Don't panic, military master, it's !! for me to come to help."

"The thief actually wants to slaughter my city, when the people of Nanchang have no courage to !!"

"Folks, fight with the thieves, otherwise if they enter the city, we won't be able to protect our family!!"

……

At this moment, only to hear a noise in the distance, the military school turned its head to look, only to see countless people's private soldiers are holding all kinds of weapons to kill here, although these people's private army does not know the way to fight, but after all, they are the new force of the dragon, and these people's private soldiers are very bloody for the family, everyone dares to fight desperately when they fight, they are a life-for-life style of fighting, with the addition of this new force, the situation at the city gate and on the city wall is deadlocked again, The two sides fought again for less than half an hour, and the defenders still held out with the help of the private soldiers in the city.

Yuan Yao looked at the fierce battle in front of him, and felt full of emotion in his heart, although he led the army to fight for several years, but he often won by surprise when fighting, and rarely attacked Jiancheng like this, the most tragic one of his sieges was the battle of Huangzhou when he attacked Jiangxia before, but that siege was mostly to cover people's eyes and ears and train soldiers and horses, and the casualties were not too big.

The fierce battle in front of him deeply stimulated Yuan Yao, the south of the Yangtze River has not been developed for too long, and there are not too many strong cities in it, and there are only a few more majestic cities in Jingzhou, but the places north of the Yangtze River are full of big city fortresses, how should he attack the city at that time, does he have to rely on the lives of the soldiers or spend countless hours to besiege the city? ?

Yuan Yao missed the gunpowder very much at this time, if he could support the gunpowder, it would be much easier to break the city with gunpowder at that time.

However, as a liberal arts student, he didn't know much about the formula of gunpowder, so he vaguely remembered that saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal and other things were needed to make gunpowder.
