"Well said, General Dong, what are you still hesitating about? If you fight with them, even if you die, you have to bite them down a few bites. It will also be easier to forget my brother in the future to avenge us. Just when Dong Zhuang was still hesitating, a slightly rough female voice sounded behind him.

Dong Zhuang turned around to look, but it was Aunt Xiu, Aunt Shi, and Aunt Duan who came with about a few hundred women. There are strong women like Aunt Xiu, there are also unmarried girls like Qin Qing, and even elderly aunts.

Dong Zhuang was surprised, "Aunt Xiu, why are you here too." ”

Aunt Xiu ignored Dong Zhuang and walked straight to the young army, looking at their thin bodies and immature faces, the tears in her eyes kept rolling, "Good children, they are all good children." She muttered to herself.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and turned her face to stare at Dong Zhuang, "The old men are all dead, it's time for the old ladies to go." We all treat these dolls as our own, and now they are going to fight hard, and if they can't protect them, then they will die with them. ”

"Auntie, don't, you can't die!" Although they were young, the young soldiers, who did not blink an eye to kill people and were not even afraid of death, cried one by one "wow" when they saw the arrival of this group of women. Just like Aunt Xiu said, they treat these orphans as their own sons, so why don't these teenagers treat them as their own mothers? What son would watch his mother die?

"Alright, don't cry! You are all men, and men shed blood without tears. Seeing the young man crying, Aunt Xiu's heart was about to break, but she still scolded them loudly.

Looking at the scene of the mother's love and filial piety in front of them, Dong Zhuang and the others were in tears, but in this situation of life and death, everyone's hearts were uncomfortable.

"Okay, I promise you. But you go up in the end, and we're dead. Dong Zhuang wiped his tears and said fiercely.

Chen Wangchun wanted to say something, but was stopped by Aunt Xiu.

Dong Zhuang didn't notice the small movements of the two, turned around and looked around, there were only a thousand wounded recruits left, and young men of different ages who were less than two thousand. When they saw Dong Zhuang's resolute eyes, everyone straightened their backs, and even some of the wounded soldiers lying on the ground struggled to get up, looking at him with the same resolute face.

"Brothers, you are all good. Without you and the tens of thousands of brothers who died in battle, Akagi would not be able to hold on to now, Dong Zhuang is here to thank you. Dong Zhuang bent down tremblingly and bowed to everyone.

Everyone didn't speak, quietly waiting for Dong Zhuang's next words.

"But we haven't done enough!" Dong Zhuang straightened up, his face was already full of seriousness and hideousness, "We haven't done enough!" Because we are not dead, we have not yet protected our parents, wives and children! He pointed to Aunt Xiu and the Young Army, "Look, you all see, are there any wives of yours here?" Do you have any daughters and sisters? Do you have any children or nephews? Because we are incompetent, they have to fight as well, brothers are not ashamed? Are you still too embarrassed to live? ”

"Damn it, it's not alive! Lao Tzu doesn't live

Finish! A big man blushed and shouted.

"Yes, not alive, not alive! Shameless to live! A few young men beside Dahan also roared angrily.

Soon, the atmosphere reached **. All the men raised their blades, long or short, and shouted with all their might. This cry is for the safety of Akagi, for the safety of his parents, wife and children, and for the dignity of men. In this high morale, there is also the belief that the stock will die, the determination to die, this kind of tragedy of forgetting to die, but also to this group of young people whose combat strength is not very high.

At this moment, the enemy battalion sounded the horn of the attack.

"Brothers, fight to the death!" Dong Zhuang pulled out his long knife and yelled.

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

The men roared loudly and scrambled to the city walls to prepare for the next big battle.

The battle was already heated as soon as it began.

On all sides of Akagi, 500 ironclad soldiers from each surged at the same time, because Akagi was seriously lacking in long-range weapons, they did not hesitate to line up in a neat phalanx, erecting countless ladders and slowly walking towards the city gate. The heavy iron armor made their footsteps extremely heavy, and the sound of uniform footsteps shook the earth and trembled, as if there was an earthquake, giving people an unusually heavy pressure.

At the same time, the Yunzhou Army and the Iron Armor Army, a total of 1,500 archers, continued to fire feather arrows at the castle tower, suppressing the Chicheng Army with all their might, preventing them from making any vain attempts to defend the city.

The Akagi army was suppressed by the enemy archers, and one by one they hid under the female wall, not daring to show their heads. I could only listen to the sonorous sound of the enemy's iron armor and feel the increasingly violent tremors of the city wall.

"Brothers, are you afraid!" Hearing the sound of breathing on the city wall getting heavier and heavier, Dong Zhuang shouted at the right time.

"Don't be afraid, fight to the death!" The encouragement just now was not in vain, and the morale of the soldiers in Akagi was still unprecedentedly high.

When the ironclad army was only a hundred feet away from the city wall, it suddenly shouted, and everyone suddenly exerted their strength like crazy and rushed towards the city wall quickly. As far as the eye can see, the ironclad soldiers everywhere are simply a torrent of steel, rolling like the water of the Yellow River rushing towards Chicheng. The dry moat did not stop them at all, and in an instant, they rushed under the city walls.

"Falling rocks, hot water, put!"

Dong Zhuang ordered loudly.

Soon, the Akagi army braved the feathered arrows above their heads to throw down all kinds of stones of various sizes, pouring buckets of boiling hot water. These stones are the last points that Yin Xian has painstakingly collected, and when they are used up this time, they will really have to demolish the county office. The entire Akagi, a total of more than 1,500 households, has long been demolished into white ground, and there are no bricks, beams, and door panels left, all of which have been moved to the city wall, and have been consumed in the battle to defend the city in the past few days.

There was a terrible scream from under the city, and dozens of ironclad soldiers were either hit by stones or poured hot water on them, and the screams were incessant. Those ironclad soldiers who were hit by falling rocks were better, and most of them were on time

The accounts were settled, but the ironclad soldiers who were splashed with hot water were miserable, and the hot water poured them all over their heads, and some of them dripped down their ironclad into their clothes, and immediately scalded their skin and flesh. They rolled loudly on the ground in pain, their mouths wailed unsoundingly, and some of them couldn't help but scratch their faces and exposed skin, and scratched a large patch of flesh.

The soldiers and civilians of Akagi at the head of the city were also uncomfortable, and just when everyone came forward to start defending, a wave of feather arrows hit at the right time, and dozens of people were immediately killed and wounded. Even worse were two of them, who were carrying a large bucket of hot water and were about to spill it, but unfortunately, one was shot in the arm, and the other was shot to pieces, and the two large buckets of hot water were not spilled, but poured on themselves. They could only roll frantically on the ground and howl in pain.

"Carry them down, and don't stop the others!" Dong Zhuang ordered loudly.

The wounded soldiers were quickly carried down, and the vacant places were filled in on their own initiative.

"Put!"

Another batch of hot water and rockfall poured down. An old man who had just scooped up hot water from the cauldron, before he could turn around, an arrow shot through his chest, he snorted miserably, plunged into the hot water, and his upper body fluttered twice in the hot cauldron and then did not move, and soon the air was filled with the smell of boiled meat. And a young man next to him, who had just grown a beard, didn't look at him, picked up the wooden bucket that the old man had thrown on the ground, pulled his corpse, scooped up a bucket of hot water with the old man's blood from the pot, took three steps and made two steps, ran to the city wall, and fell down with a wave of his arm. There was another scream below, and the young man was immediately shot dead and fell headlong.

In this short period of time, the losses of the Akagi side as the defender of the city were much greater than the side besieging the city. Without long-range attack weapons and the necessary equipment to defend the city, the Akagi army suffered a big loss. And the enemy's feathered arrows were like locusts, dense and never stopped, causing great damage to the Akagi army. Often, a soldier or civilian in Akagi was shot to death as soon as he showed his head, and the falling rocks that could be successfully thrown were poured out less and less.

In less than a quarter of an hour, dozens of ladders were erected at the head of the city, the top of the ladder continued to tremble rapidly, and there was a "creaking" sound in the air, obviously, the ironclad army was rapidly climbing up the city.

"Putter!" Dong Zhuang gave the order again.

After a few days of offensive and defensive battles, the soldiers and civilians of Akagi had long been accustomed to these routines, and immediately dozens of pushers made of long logs were pushed up to the ladder, and more than a dozen people pushed forward each pusher. But this time the situation is different from before, this time the ladder is much heavier, this time they are all ironclad infantry, and the foot armor of the whole body weighs fifty pounds, how can it be the same as before? And there are seven or eight people on each ladder, which can be said to be extremely heavy.

For a time, the soldiers and civilians of Akagi only successfully pushed down three or four ladders. Moreover, the enemy archers in the distance did not care about their own ironclad soldiers at all, and a wave of feathered arrows immediately hit them again. Almost all of the Akagi soldiers and civilians pushing the ladder were shot down at once, and only a few of the ironclad soldiers who were climbing the city were accidentally injured and fell off the ladder screaming.
