Chapter 396: Defending the City with Difficulty

At the head of the right city, the battle became more and more intense.

The city was littered with fire, rocks, arrows, blood, and corpses.

Zu Dashou, He Kegang, Cao Bianjiao and others had already gone into battle in person, the long knives were all blood, and the eyes that had already been killed were red, and they forgot everything.

Zhou Zheng stood on the Arrow Pavilion, looking at the head of the city, and then staring at the camp in the distance.

Shangguan Qing stood behind Zhou Zheng with an unprecedentedly solemn expression.

Youtun is a small city, if the captives attack the city at any cost, it will not be able to hold it for long at all.

Azig and Yueto stood at the rear of the army, staring coldly at the small city.

Azig's eyes flashed with cruelty, and he said, "When this city is captured, I want everyone to bury my son!" ”

Yue Tuo's expression was indifferent, staring at the chaotic crowd on the city wall, but he was worried about some things in his heart, for example, why didn't those cannons appear on the capital? Why didn't the gunpowder that killed Hauge appear?

He didn't speak, staring silently.

In the rear, in the big tent, Huang Taiji, who was sitting and playing chess opposite Fan Wenchen, got up and looked at Li Wentao, who had a blurred face and was full of arrows in front of him, with a sad expression and a long silence.

Fan Wenchen's face was the same, for a moment, he looked at Huang Taiji and said, "Great Khan, Lord Li died well, there is no need to grieve too much, please give me mercy." ”

Huang Taiji sighed lightly and said, "After returning to Beijing, it will definitely be like this." ”

Fan Wenchen looked up at the outside of the big tent, pondered, and said, "Great Khan, attacking the city is secondary, and attacking the heart is the first. ”

Huang Taiji also looked up at the south, as if he could hear the hissing shouting of killing, for a while, and said, "What is the movement of the Ming army south of the Daling River?" ”

Jilharang was not far from him and said, "No, Jinzhou has not come out, and those on the sea have been staring." ”

Huang Taiji's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said: "Li Aiqing can't die in vain, he must pay for his blood debts!" Youtun is extremely important to them, and they will definitely send someone to rescue them. Zierharang, you personally led an army of 30,000 people, and came to destroy all the way, I want them to not save Youtun! ”

"It's the Great Khan!" Zilharang said in a deep voice.

On the right side, the fighting became more and more fierce, the corpses were like mountains, and blood was flowing everywhere.

Zu Dashou and Zhou Zheng clashed and were arguing in the Arrow Pavilion.

Zu Dashou wiped the blood on his face and said angrily: "Can't you see? The Jianyu people are about to come up, and they are not up yet! ”

Zhou Zheng was indifferent and said: "There are 10,000 people on the city tower, and there is no problem in defending the city." ”

Zu Dashou's face was covered with blood, and he looked very hideous under his anger, he gritted his teeth and said, "Can't you see it? The Jianyu people have already attacked, and if you go up to 5,000, you will be able to repel them! ”

Zhou Zheng stared at the city wall, and said in an indifferent and resolute tone: "I can't go up anymore." ”

Seeing him like this, the corners of his face twitched, and he said, "Then fire!" As long as the cannon is fired, the momentum of the captives can be suppressed and the pressure on the city head can be reduced......"

"It's not time yet." Zhou Zheng interrupted without waiting for him to finish.

Zu Dashou was angry and said, "Do you have to wait for the city to break before you make a move?" ”

Zu Dashou only has 5,000 people, and the others are all in Zhou Zheng's, facing Zhou Zheng's refusal to send troops to the city again, seeing that it is in danger, he is really anxious.

Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "You have time to waste here with me, you might as well find a way to defend the city." ”

Seeing that Zhou Zheng was determined not to send troops, Zu Dashou roared angrily, turned around and went to the city tower again.

On the small city wall, it is not enough to hold on, and in the face of the crazy attack of Jianyu, it is almost a 'field battle' at the head of the city, the two sides are constantly tugging and fighting, and even Jianyu soldiers are killed in the city.

The danger is obvious!

But Zhou Zheng did not send people, nor did he fire the cannon.

On the small city wall, the Ming army went up and down, and the captives came and went, glued together, fighting wildly, and I don't know how many corpses fell at their feet.

Zu Dashou resisted desperately, tried all means to boost morale, but he was still able to block it, and he couldn't repel the Ming army at all, and he had no advantage at all.

Soon, the two armies fought fiercely from morning to noon, the two sides were still fighting, the right tun was not broken, but the Ming army did not hold it, because there were half of the Jianyu people at the head of the city!

Azig, Yue Tuo has been staring at the rear, looking at the small city head for so long, his expression is a little ugly.

Azig pulled out his knife and said in a cold voice: "I'll go personally!" ”

Yue Tuo said, "Withdraw it." ”

Azig was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "With so many people dead, it looks like it's about to be captured, why do you want to withdraw the army!?" ”

Yue Tuo's expression was faint, and he said: "There are 20,000 people in the city, but now there are only 10,000, and if you continue to attack, you will not be able to attack it." ”

Yue Tuo did not say anything about the cannon or gunpowder.

Azig snorted coldly and said, "How do you know if you don't try, I'll go now!" ”

After Azig finished speaking, he galloped to the right tun and took the lead in the siege.

The addition of Azig, Baylor, greatly boosted the morale of the Jianyu and intensified the siege of the city.

Zu Dashou's was suddenly in danger, and the Ming army defending the city was almost pushed off the city wall.

"Zhou Zhengyun!" Zu Dashou stood on the city wall and shouted at Zhou Zheng in the Arrow Pavilion.

Zhou Zheng frowned, and waved his hand below with some reluctance.

The 3,000 people that Cao Bianjiao had prepared long ago rushed to the city wall like a tide, roaring angrily, and slaughtered Jianyu.

At the same time, Shangguan Qing appeared in front of the war drums, dressed in white armor, holding a heavy sledgehammer with slender hands, knocking on the knock.

The drums reverberate and motivate.

The relationship between Shangguan Qing and Zhou Zheng came from the soldiers of Tianjin Wei who did not know. Seeing that the 'lady' had appeared in person, the morale of the soldiers on the city wall was shaken, and they roared angrily, and they fought with Jianyu again.

The fighting on the walls was extremely fierce, with flames everywhere, mutilated limbs and corpses everywhere.

Cao Bianjiao came to Zhou Zheng's side, looked solemn, and said, "My lord, this is only the first day." ”

This is Zhou Zheng's confidant, he didn't hide anything, and said: "It should be able to survive today, if it can survive the next day, the Jianyu people will not attack the city again." ”

The loss of attacking the city is greater than that of defending the city, and the soldiers of Jianyu are scarce, if one or two thousand people are converted here in Youtun, it is enough for them to have heartache and recover for a long time, and the high-level of Jianyu will never want to see it.

Cao Bianjiao understood, and looked at the seven thousand people under the city again, and his expression became more and more solemn.

It is too difficult to defend the small city with 20,000 people, and it is only a matter of time before the captives do not spare the cost - the city is broken.

Zu Dashou couldn't care about anything else, and went back and forth on the city wall to boost morale, urging the soldiers to do everything possible to defend the city.

After fighting for half an hour, Yue Tuo saw that it was useless, and sent a message to Azig asking him to withdraw his troops.

Azig led himself with a blue flag, and seeing that his efforts were in vain and did not want to lose his people, he could only withdraw his troops in hatred.

The two didn't have anything to say, packed up the remnants, and turned to Huang Taiji to pray.

Huang Taiji looked calm, and said with a smile: "It's only 20,000 people, rest for a while, and continue to attack the city in the afternoon, this kind of small city will not be difficult for us." That Zhou Zhengyun, Ben Khan asked for his head. ”

Azig, Yue Tuo heard that he wanted to increase his troops and take revenge, and said with a deep face: "Thank you, Great Khan!" ”
