Han Ruzi had no choice, the first army loyal to him had arrived in the city, specifically to save the emperor, he couldn't see death without saving, and the Xiongnu Right Xian King would find an excuse to attack the city no matter what, Jincheng might as well welcome reinforcements to defend together. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

If there's still a chance to defend.

Fan Bang Mountain joined up with reinforcements and also fell into the encirclement of the Huns.

In order to prevent the Chu army from fighting and retreating, the Huns changed their usual cavalry and archery fighting methods, relying on the strength of the crowd, rushing into the Chu army from all directions, and starting a melee battle, especially the soldiers of the Buyeo State, who specialized in attacking near the city gate, and would rather die than retreat.

The Chu army has no way to close the city gates, there are soldiers everywhere, and those behind take one step back, and the front can take two steps back, and if they retreat again, they will bring in the enemy.

At this time, no matter how much strategy there is, it is useless, and it can only be carried hard, and if it wants to retreat to the advanced, it has to fight until the Huns' offensive is slightly weaker, and the Chu army has a chance to retreat into the city.

Han Ruzi personally beat the drum at the head of the city to supervise the battle, all the soldiers regardless of their origins, all lined up in the city gate, and rushed out continuously, those temporary soldiers who were originally only responsible for carrying soil and rocks also received weapons, regardless of whether they could use it or not, let alone the formation, they all joined the battle.

The civil officials carried the flag in the city, and the honor guards went down to the city to wait for the battle.

Even the king of the East China Sea and Cui Teng also came to the street, standing with the guard soldiers, holding spears, and moving forward little by little with the team, getting closer and closer to the city gate and the Huns, the drums at the head of the city were ringing, and the sound of killing outside the city shook the sky, and the dense soldiers on the street hardly spoke, only the supervising generals kept shouting loudly.

"Onward! Go ahead! As soon as the city is broken, everyone will be killed by the Huns! Protect Your Majesty! Protect Jincheng! Protect yourselves! ”

The king of the East China Sea had just escaped from the king of Youxian, and he was afraid of the Huns to death, and whispered: "He said it easily......

Cui Teng was very excited, he took the initiative to ask for war - after him, the king of the East China Sea had to make a statement, but the emperor immediately agreed - he was already impatient, eager to step out of the city, "Everyone has to join the war, and when we go out, these generals will follow." ”

The king of the East China Sea let out a strange hmm, he always felt that he should not participate in the war in his own capacity, but he couldn't say this, especially when facing Cui Teng, "You are the only son left in the Cui family." ”

"Don't be afraid, my eldest brother has a son, and I will die without regrets."

The King of the East China Sea looked at Cui Teng in amazement, originally thinking that he took the initiative to ask for war just to curry favor with the emperor, but he didn't expect that he was coming for real, not at all like the gentleman he knew before.

"If you have to die, don't you want to die a heroic death? Don't want to die for an emperor worth following? Cui Teng glanced at the head of the city, and he couldn't see the emperor from here, but his eyes still revealed reverence, and he suddenly said to the king of the East China Sea: "Follow me forward." ”

"Huh?" The king of the East China Sea was eager to be nailed to the ground, and he was pushed by the people behind him before he was willing to take half a step forward.

Cui Teng whispered in the ear of the King of the East China Sea: "The guards are all embroidered pillows, which are useless, instead of entering the battlefield with them, it is better to find those soldiers who are really good at fighting." ”

The guards of honor were all very tall, but they were used to holding fluttering flags and wooden halberds, and it was indeed a little uncomfortable for them to suddenly change to heavy real knives and real guns.

Cui Teng squeezed forward, and the King of the East China Sea looked left and right, not wanting to move, but he felt that Cui Teng was right, since he was going to the battlefield, it should be safer to stand with experienced veterans.

After thinking about it again and again, hesitating again and again, and self-encouragement, Cui Teng's figure had disappeared, and the King of the East China Sea finally took a step forward and squeezed forward.

It was difficult at first, not only to squeeze through a group of tall honor guards, but also to beware of the bright swords and guns, but after a few steps, someone began to make way for him.

The guard of honor recognized the King of the East China Sea and knew that he was the emperor's only half-brother, and admired his bravery.

Someone nodded to the King of the East Sea, and the King of the East Sea squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, and by this time, he had no choice but to move forward.

It didn't take long for the people in front to not only give way, but also reached out to pull him and push him, wanting the King of the East Sea to enter the battlefield as soon as possible.

The soldiers made such a move with reverence, but the king of the East China Sea only wanted to scold people in his heart, especially scolding Cui Teng, this guy didn't know where he had squeezed in, maybe he was still behind him.

"Well done!" Someone praised.

"Why don't you go with me?" The king of the East China Sea replied in his heart, but he still smiled on his face, he didn't want to laugh, but this smile was stiff, and he couldn't take it back if he wanted to.

"A good boy deserves to die on the battlefield!" Someone shouted again.

"You go, I'd rather be a eunuch." The King of the East Sea replied secretly, his legs were numb, and he involuntarily moved forward.

"Swear to protect Your Majesty!"

"The emperor should protect everyone." The king of the East Sea quietly retorted, walked into the city gate cave, his eyes were dark, he quickly adapted, and when he looked out, he could already see the battlefield and see the bloodstained soldiers......

He didn't want to go, he didn't want to take a step.

The gates were crowded with soldiers about to enter the battlefield, and dozens of officers armed with long shields exerted pressure from both sides to prevent them from retreating.

"I am the ...... of the East China Sea" As soon as he shouted half a sentence, all the soldiers in the door suddenly shouted at the same time, and then rushed out, the king of the East China Sea had no choice at all, his identity was meaningless at this time, and it was not as useful as the spear in his hand.

A group of Buyeo soldiers rushed to the bridge, brandished heavy axes and hammers, and swept left and right frantically, invincible.

The king of the East China Sea didn't see it at first, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and the person in front of him didn't know where to go, he raised his head and saw the fierce enemy, and he was stunned for a moment, and there was only one thought left in his mind: Cui Teng, this bastard, lied! Who said it was safer among the veterans?

As a disciple of the clan, the king of the East China Sea also learned the art of using a gun, but at this time, he didn't use it at all, and watched a big man rush over in a daze, not dodging or dodging.

A hammer swept in, and a soldier next to him raised his shield to block.

The king of the East Sea didn't know anything, he only felt a buzz in his ears, and then he flew, really flew, because he didn't have to look up to see the sky, turned around quickly, and saw the broken bridge railing again, he thought that he was going to fall into the river and drown, who wanted to land when he was soft, it turned out that the side of the river was already full of corpses.

The King of the East China Sea was just about to open his mouth to call for help, but someone fell down and smashed on the head of the King of the East China Sea, and he fainted.

At the head of Jincheng City, there was a bang, and the drum skin was broken.

Han Ruzi took two steps back, gasping for breath, his arms were sore, but he didn't want to stop, let alone let others beat the drums, he had to let the soldiers who fought bloody in the city know that the emperor was behind them and did not hide in the deep mansion compound.

"Change the drums!"

There were spare drums in the gate tower, and the guards immediately went to carry them, and the eunuchs had removed the broken drums, and after the guards had set up the drums, they knelt down together.

Han Ruzi nodded, he didn't need personal protection now, and glanced at Meng E alone, she didn't say anything, standing with the guards, the knife was out of its sheath.

More than thirty guards went downstairs to prepare to participate in the battle, Han Ruzi turned his head and looked, there were only a small number of eunuchs and dozens of officials left behind him, these people's combat effectiveness was too weak, and it was useless to send them down, it was better to hold the flag here.

But after the guards left, many officials also knelt down, Han Ruzi was still hesitating, and one official said: "Your Majesty, the people in the city are about to join the war, and I, as the official of the herdsmen, should be the first for the people." ”

Han Ruzi nodded, "Take care, Zhuqing, I will never leave the city half a step." ”

The eunuchs also wanted to ask for war, but the officials did not allow it, "Your Majesty must have someone around him to carry the flag." ”

Knock, knock, knock......

Han Ruzi continued to beat the drums, there were not many people left around him, he didn't see the battle on the bridge, his eyes kept looking into the distance, observing the situation of the entire battlefield.

The situation is not good, the Chu army has not been defeated, but the Huns are not tired, wave after wave, endless, and there are many more troops on the periphery of the battlefield, ready to join the battle at any time.

King Youxian finally got this opportunity and was determined to win.

Han Ruzi has only one thought: he must not retreat. Retreating at this time will demoralize the Chu army, and it will not be able to shake off the enemy troops outside the city.

Time passed little by little, and the battle still showed no sign of ending, and the two eunuchs found a drum from elsewhere to spare, and the others, including Liu Jie, the central eunuch, all stood on both sides of the emperor with flags, with the intention of death.

It's a battle that requires miracles, but miracles only happen to those who persevere.

Zhang Youcai was the first to see the "miracle", stretched out his fingers, and screamed: "Look! Is that...... That's ......"

It was a Chu army.

After Cai Xinghai and Chao Hua led the army to leave, Feng Shili hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to lead his troops to follow behind, so as not to fall into the mouth of not saving him, but he walked very slowly, sent many scouts to explore the way ahead, and once he found the ambush of the Huns, he would immediately retreat.

Therefore, by the time this Chu army arrived in Jincheng, the battle had been going on for a long time.

Feng Shili still didn't dare to participate in the battle at first, he felt that Jincheng was about to be lost, and he might as well reserve a little strength for Da Chu, but the battle was stalemate, and it was not over for a long time, and the generals under his command took turns to come to ask for battle, Feng Shili could no longer sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and finally ordered to attack.

His order was very clear, not to go into battle, but to attack the Huns on the periphery.

Feng Shili, who had been captured by the Huns, knew the horror of the enemy, and when his troops were too small, he was never willing to fight him in the open area outside the city.

After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that he could only do one thing: attract the Huns and give the Chu army a chance to retreat from the city to protect itself.

This decision of his saved everyone.

The Huns were too eager to break through the city of Jin, neglecting the outer defenses, and found that another Chu army suddenly appeared, all of them were shocked, and the king of Youxian thought that he had been counter-surrounded, and immediately ordered the whole army to turn to the newly arrived Chu army

Once the Hun soldiers who were fighting could not get support, they quickly retreated, and the Chu army finally got a chance to retreat.

After Han Ruzi stopped beating the drums, observed for a while, and confirmed that the newly arrived Chu army was only to induce the Huns to retreat and would not rush to Jincheng, he immediately withdrew his troops.

He didn't know who the general of the Chu army was, but he was full of gratitude for this person.

The Chu army is retreating into the city, leaving countless corpses outside the city, Han Ruzi is standing at the head of the city, feeling deeply tired and anxious, the right Xian King is not removed, Jincheng is afraid that it will not last long. (To be continued.) )
