On October 13, in just one day, the first division of the Yunjia Army connected two cities, and it took more than a day to reach Dingxiang County.

In this day, the Shangguan clan was not happy, although the news of the Yun family army coming to help greatly increased the morale of the defenders, but the difference between the strength of the defenders and the strength of the Guangming Army is getting bigger and bigger, the Guangming Army has repeatedly attacked, but the defenders can only drag their tired bodies to meet the enemy, the four congenital grandmasters of the Shangguan clan died two more in battle, and the remaining two were also brought on their bodies, paying a painful price, and finally they also killed a congenital grandmaster of the Guangming Army, and now the Guangming Army only has Liu Kun and Zhu Wen two innate grandmasters.

In order to resist the Bright Army, the Shangguan clan and the small family attached to the Shangguan clan are also fighting, regardless of men and women in the clan, all warriors must go to the city wall to defend the city, even Shangguan Xiying, who was recuperating in the mansion, also walked out of the mansion and climbed the city wall, Shangguan Xiying's strength has been reduced to the congenital level, but with one more Shangguan Xiying, the pressure on the defenders will be reduced.

However, Shangguan Xiying has not recovered from her serious injuries, and now she is fighting with injuries, if Dingxiang County can be defended, Shangguan Xiying, who originally had a ten-year lifespan, may not be able to live for a few years.

Now, in a circle in Dingxiang County, many houses are gone, the beams of the houses have been dismantled and transported to the city wall as rolling logs, and the masonry has also become a weapon to defend the city, thrown from a humanoid trebuchet to the Bright Army.

Persistence is victory, Shangguan has been persevering, Shangguan Hongbo was injured, the eldest son Shangguan Yanghui was killed in battle, and Shangguan is still persevering.

The people in Dingxiang County are also insisting, and the outside is evil. Teach demons, once the city is broken, they will all be eaten, it is better to desperately defend the city, there is still a glimmer of life, the only remaining men in the city have joined the sequence of defending the city, and even some women have picked up kitchen knives and want to fight hard. (At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were several times when the enemy army besieged the city, and the soldiers and civilians in the city held on for several months)

Several times the Guangming Army was about to capture the northern wall of Dingxiang County, but they were finally recaptured by the defenders, so there were less than 3,000 defenders left in Dingxiang County, and I am afraid that the next attack of the Guangming Army will be able to occupy it. (The defenders only have 3,000, but there are still a large number of old and weak women and children to help)

"Is the heavens going to kill my Shangguan clan?" The white-haired Shangguan Hongbo let out a hoarse roar.

On October 14, when the sky was bright, Liu Kun and Zhu Wen led 18,000 Guangming troops to launch a final attack on the county town of Dingxiang.

Just as the Guangming Army launched an attack on Dingxiang County, a spy from the Guangming Army suddenly came to report: "Report to the hall master, the Yunjia army suddenly appeared twenty miles to the south." ”

Liu Kun and Zhu Wen were shocked when they heard this, why did the Yun family army arrive so quickly?

Twenty miles is not long or short, and it is still difficult for the Guangming Army to completely occupy Dingxiang County.

Liu Kun and Zhu Wen quickly discussed, and finally Zhu Wen personally led 5,000 Guangming troops to stop the Yunjia army, Liu Kun led the rest of the men and horses to storm Dingxiang County, and must completely occupy Dingxiang County before the Yunjia army arrived.

The matter of the division of troops of the Guangming Army cannot escape the sight of the defenders of Dingxiang County, it is obvious that the division of the Guangming Army is to stop the Yun family army, and the Yun family army is about to arrive!

Knowing that the Yun family's army was about to arrive, the morale of the defenders, whose morale had already dropped to a low point, actually rose again.

This is the last battle!

"My wife and children are all behind us, and we can't let the evil be. Teach demons to rush into the city and kill! On the city wall, a defender commander without a left arm raised his sword in his right hand and shouted angrily.

"Kill! Kill! "The shouts of killing on the walls were deafening.

Section after section of the house beam was thrown down the city wall by the defenders, killing and wounding the light soldiers, and the defenders threw them down the city with bricks and stones, and the light soldiers under the city couldn't dodge, and were directly hit in the head by the bricks and stones and died.

"Give me death!" Liu Kun rushed up the city wall and fell into the crowd, and with a sweep of the two eight-edged copper hammers in his hands, several defenders vomited blood and flew away, and their internal organs were shattered.

"You dare!" However, he saw the two innate first-order martial artists promoted by the Shangguan clan rushing towards Liu Kun with swords and standing with Liu Kun.

"Give me death." Liu Kun was already ready, turned around and threw an eight-edged copper hammer with all his might, and the next moment it hit one of the innate martial artists, and the innate martial artist watched the eight-sided copper hammer smash into him and didn't have time to dodge, and spit blood and flew out.

"Ahhh Although he knew that he was invincible, the remaining innate martial artist still rushed forward with a sword, standing with Liu Kun who only had an eight-sided copper hammer left, and then another ninth-order martial artist nearby followed, assisting the innate martial artist to fight with Liu Kun, which was difficult for these two people to resist Liu Kun together, and after only a few rounds, the ninth-order martial artist was hammered to death.

At this time, the soldiers of the Bright also rushed up the city wall in a steady stream, and soon nearly half of the city wall on the north side of Dingxiang County was occupied by the Bright Army.

"Kill! Kill! ”

"Coming to the world!" "The light shines and dispells the darkness!" ”

The two armies were so entangled that even the warriors were killed before they could dodge under the combined attack of ordinary soldiers.

At the edge of the city wall, Shangguan Hongbo and Shangguan Xiying each held a sword and killed the bright soldiers who rushed over.

"I can't go on like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive." Looking at the defending soldiers and soldiers who kept dying around him, Shangguan Hongbo had such a thought flashing in his mind: "For today's plan, we can only retreat, retreat to Shangguan's mansion, and it is possible to hold out until reinforcements arrive." ”

"Withdraw, withdraw." Shangguan Hongbo gave the order to retreat.

Hearing the order to retreat, the surrounding defenders fought and retreated......

About a quarter and a half hours after Zhu Wen divided his troops, the distance between the Yun family army and the Guangming army was only three hundred zhang, under Yun Yi's order, the Yun family army began to slow down, and the fire gun soldiers came to the front of the team, lined up in three columns, and the fire gun soldiers quickly loaded the ammunition for the fire guns, and the muzzles were aimed at the Guangming army in front.

"Forward!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The orderly sound of war drums sounded, and the Yun family sergeants strode forward.

Two hundred and fifty zhang

Two hundred zhang

One hundred and fifty zhang

One hundred zhang, the Yun family army stopped

"Fire!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by fire and black smoke, a row of lead bullets flew out towards the Bright Army, and after two breaths, the second row of lead bullets also flew towards the Bright Army.

Bang! Burst! Burst! Burst!

Zhu Wen rushed to the front of the team, and the next moment he saw countless "hidden weapons" flying in, Zhu Wen quickly picked up his weapon to block the "hidden weapon" that shot at him, but he couldn't block the "hidden weapon" for his war horse and the surrounding soldiers.

Zhu Wen could only jump off the war horse and continue to use weapons to resist the "hidden weapons", but there were too many "hidden weapons" to completely resist, and a few "hidden weapons" hit Zhu Wen and were half embedded in Zhu Wen's body, causing Zhu Wen to suffer a little minor injury.

In an instant, hundreds of Bright Sergeants fell, and after two breaths, hundreds more Bright Sergeants fell, and at the front of the Bright Army, only Zhu Wen and the two ninth-order deacons of the day after tomorrow and a row of Bright Sergeants behind them remained.

"Where did the hidden weapon come from, it's not good, it's the hidden weapon launched by the Yun Family Army, quickly withdraw, quickly withdraw!" In the face of the hidden weapons that continued to fly over, Zhu Wenming confessed that the five thousand light troops led by himself could not resist the Yun family's army, but would suffer heavy losses, and Zhu Wen quickly issued an order to withdraw.

When Zhu Wen's withdrawal order was issued, the bright sergeant quickly turned around and fled, seeing that his comrades fell for no reason, at this moment they really wished they had two more legs on their bodies.

The 5,000 Bright Army led by Zhu Wen was defeated, and it was estimated that the Bright Army that could escape the range of the fire bolt would be at most 2,500 people.

"Forward!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The frequency of the war drums changed again, and the Yun family sergeants strode forward.

On the other side, the defenders of Dingxiang County City continued to retreat towards Shangguan Mansion, and the Guangming soldiers rushed to the defenders feverishly shouting slogans, and finally only more than 1,200 defenders retreated into Shangguan Mansion.

"Just hold on for a quarter of an hour, just hold on for another quarter of an hour." Shangguan Hongbo muttered silently, his body became more and more rickety, he was in the prime of life, but now he was like a dying old man.

Under the leadership of Liu Kun, the Guangming Army continued to attack the Shangguan Mansion, and even rushed into the Shangguan Mansion, but 1,200 defenders were crowded in the Shangguan Mansion, and it would take time for the Bright Army to break through the last stronghold of the Shangguan Clan.

After another quarter of an hour, Zhu Wen fled back to Dingxiang County.

"Hall Master, the Yun family army has an unknown firearm, it is very powerful, and I can't stop it even for a round with five thousand people." Zhu Wen said hurriedly.

"What?" Liu Kun was shocked.

Now the Yunjia army is only less than two miles away from the Dingxiang county town, and there are still 500 resistance forces left in the Shangguan Mansion, and the Guangming army is about to completely capture the Dingxiang county town.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

More than ten loud noises came to Liu Kun's ears from the south gate of Dingxiang County.

"The South Gate is broken! The South Gate is broken! ”

"Damn, how did the south gate break, alas, withdraw the troops!" The southern city gate was broken, and the Guangming Army's plan to resist the city and block the Yun family army was bankrupt, and there was no choice but to withdraw the army, Zhu Wen had already experienced the strength of the Yun family army.

"Evil. The demon is gone, and we're victorious, woo. ”

There were less than 400 people left in the Shangguan Mansion, and some of the soldiers saw the Guangming Army retreating, and sat directly on the ground and cried loudly.

Dead, all dead, comrades-in-arms dead, loved ones dead, how many people are still alive?

Shangguan Hongbo was in tears, the Shangguan clan was not wiped out, but in the future, the Shangguan clan is no longer worthy of being included in the seven surnames and twelve clans, all the congenital battles of the Shangguan clan were killed, and most of the family's heritage was exhausted in this war......

Note 1: In ancient wars, it is difficult to hold on to a soldier, and even more than half of the war means losing, but this is not absolute, in the battle with foreign races, there have been many examples of fighting to the death, in the eyes of the soldiers and civilians of Dingxiang County, the bright army is a demon, it is a foreign race, and they don't want to die, so they can only fight to the death, these are not too exaggerated.
