Luodu, the southern front of the city,

It was mottled and mutilated by smoke and fire, and it was hidden above the thick gate tower under the snow.

Yang Keshi, the general of the Northern Army, was also looking at the Tongji Canal that ran through the city, where the southern army that had been besieging the city had filled in several sections and overflowed the water.

On the other hand, the water level in the city of Luodu has decreased, revealing the mouth of the original drainage, but Luodu is crisscrossed by several water systems, and it is absolutely unsustainable to play the trick of cutting off the water and cutting off the flow.

On the contrary, these enemy troops were ingenious, and they actually wanted to sneak into the waterway leading to the city from under the mouth of the canal, but it was a pity that they encountered the section of the city defended by Yang Keshi, how could they give them such a chance.

After discovering the end and abnormal movements in the waterway, it was just a temporary additional iron gate, and these drowning enemies were trapped and killed alive in the narrow waterway, and then by the way, they notified all parts of the castle tower to plug the leak on the spot.

Thinking of this, he suddenly drew his saber, slowly exhaled a puff of white air, and rubbed it on the somewhat vague blade surface, confirming that he was still alive with the image and feeling of the human beard scribbling in the reflection.

In the blink of an eye, it was the eleventh day of the siege of the Southern Army, and it was also the fifteenth day after the beginning of winter. The people gathered around him have already changed several times,

And before that, in order to try to block and delay, the tide of the Southern Army surging through the pass like a raging wave, these hastily assembled several firefighting teams also broke out with unimaginable and indescribable combat effectiveness and unyielding will to sing and cry in the face of the enemy army with great superiority.

From Taikoo Pass to Yishui, a suburb of Luodu, the twists and turns between the ups and downs of the region.

Yang Keshi has not closed his eyes for three days and two nights, dozens of large and small battles, taking the lead, wearing armor and blood, and not going to the battlefield with more than a dozen wounds, but in exchange for only a little stagnation, it is the result that cannot be avoided and reversed, and the southern army is driven straight in.

And the origins of Bian Jun and his associates also almost disappeared along with Yang Keshi's last cronies and blood in this short period of dozens of miles, and he was responsible for blocking the road of death after being cut off.

By the time he passed through Yishui, there were not many familiar faces around him, but all kinds of chaotic and restless soldiers.

And these messy soldiers who don't know what to do, coupled with the disability and fatigue of No. 100 barely keeping up with him, finally became the last bit of team and capital in his surrender to Luodu City.

As for the so-called "group fortifications" in which Lingbao Gong went to great lengths to forcibly requisition and distribute civilian forces for emergency repairs, it did not pose any obstacle to the southern army at all, but contributed a lot of building materials and materials to the other side.

In order to commend him for his bloody battles and the merits of the death-defying aid, the edict from Ouchi was especially generously promulgated to him, and the official worshiped the envoy of the righteous army, and received the special advancement, the lord Jinning Xianghou, the house of the Emperor, the goldfish bag, etc., and the new ministry of the general commander.

But this did not make him feel relieved and encouraged at all, and no matter how much gold there was in the official title in a corner of the lonely city, and he, the general leader of the soldiers and horses, was actually only in charge of thousands of soldiers and horses, and tens of thousands of forcibly recruited people.

At least those who died could not be brought back to life, and they could not change the reality that he was now trapped in a lonely city.

He sighed like this, this field that has watered the flesh and blood of countless people, it will be extraordinarily fertile and fertile in the coming year, but unfortunately, he may not have many opportunities to see that scene.

The rumbling sound of artillery once again interrupted Yang Keshi's remembrance and thoughts, but it was the deterrent routine shelling of the Southern Army that began again.

Suddenly, the sentry tower not far from him, the roar shattered a corner, and the iron ball, which had not diminished, bounced back and forth in a miserable scream of the sentry post, and a small group of archers who were on standby fell to the ground with broken hands and feet.

Crimson blood flowed down the stairs from the heights, and the guards also held their cards in front of him, using their bodies to create a temporary barrier.

At that time, Yang Keshi did not retreat because of this, but continued to observe the position from which the enemy's artillery bombardment came through the gaps in his hand and battlements, and made some kind of judgment and deduction on the battlefield.

Shouting and pushing the equipment to defend the city from the cover and buildings behind the city walls, along the special wooden tracks, to the top of the city. This is also one of his experiences and countermeasures against long-range projection outside the city.

Although he had repelled many strong attacks of the Southern Army before, he did not feel at ease and fortunate at all, and the situation of the city's defense facilities and reserves was very worrying.

For example, the city fire artillery, those big guys in the city, are even more useless than imagined, because the idea of being abandoned and unused for too long, coupled with the desolation and negligence of the usual soldiers, (the last time it was used was on the alarm in the Luodu Revolution a few years ago), many of them have appeared in strict rust and micro-cracks, and only the function of decoration and scaring people remains.

The rest is still usable, not to mention the slow firing and the shooting range is narrow, after all, they are all hundreds of years old, and they are older and older than everyone in Luodu City.

Because of the aging of different Cheng dù, today's gunners do not even dare to use the full amount of charge, for fear of blowing themselves up into the sky with the city defense guns, which will cheapen the enemy who is besieging the city.

Therefore, even the condescending range could not suppress the continuous research of the Southern Dynasty for hundreds of years, and the light and heavy artillery that had lasted for a long time could bully and destroy those siege equipment that were slowly approaching under the protection of the moats.

Therefore, more often than not, he still preferred to rely on those traditional reloading equipment, represented by bed crossbows and stone cannons, which were easy to build.

After all, as the most important thing in the world, Luodu City still has enough material resources and materials, manpower and craftsmen to build these city defense equipment to resist the siege of the Southern Army from afar.

And under the city wall of the thick gate, in the Tibetan soldier cave that is temporarily waiting to support the head of the city, with a small number of figures who are talking to each other, some conspiracies from the middle and lower class generals are also emerging.

After all, not everyone has the determination and will to fight to the death for the court that is now besieged in the besieged city. It's just that they have always lacked some kind of opportunity, or a bond that gives them the opportunity to gather or connect.

Although, although their aims and motives are different, there are both rebellious people who seek personal ambitions and desires, and there are also potential dissidents who are full of despair and helplessness and full of resentment and cruelty to the court of the Zhang family's dictatorship;

But more people are just trying to find a way out.

Among them, there are even some behind-the-scenes backgrounds in Hongo, who just want to protect people and things close to them, and in the future when it may be extremely bad, to obtain a less bad, or even better, result.

Therefore, these noises of them were able to take advantage of the situation to break through the Zhang family, operate the prestige of several generations, and brew an irrepressible undercurrent for the long-term control and supervision of the army.

After all, if some kind of dissenting thoughts and ideas arise as part of the military's surveillance and internal intelligence system itself, there will naturally be room for some information transmission and activities that have been ignored......

The first line of the Heyang Bridge fell into a kind of silence and confrontation,

The defenders of Zhongcheng who remained on the sandbar in the river were certainly unable to attack it, but the southern army that occupied Nanguan City could not defeat it.

There was no other means to cooperate with the attack, and the limited width of the bridge also limited the strength of the attack on both sides.

In the snowy and white-covered wilderness, sporadic battles continued beyond the frontal battlefield.

Although the Northern Dynasty has been trapped in Luodu, in fact, there are still some scattered troops outside Luodu City who have not been able to escape into the city for various reasons.

"Smecta ......"

"Onboard ......"

In such a shout, the soldiers of the Ninth Brigade raised their three-eyed guns one after another, obliquely put them on their cards, and with the batch of slogans, they faced the enemy several times in a row, and the projectiles sprayed out one after another, which immediately knocked down the enemy in front of them repeatedly, and were trampled on by the soldiers behind without hesitation.

And the arrows that flew from the opposite side like locusts also stuck in their hands and leather armor, and knocked many people to the ground. Obviously, they had just met, a Silla soldier who was serving in the camp of the Northern Army, and they couldn't help but see each other and fight with extra red eyes.

As two feudal states that were naturalized one after another in history, the Silla Nu and the Japanese Nu played a non-negligible role in the Tang people's foreign development, and at the same time, they also formed a long-term and fierce competitive relationship.

Not to mention, after the confrontation between the north and the south, because of the geographical relationship, many people in the Silla domain joined the Northern Dynasty, while the Japanese people of the Fusang Domain served the Southern Dynasty more, and between the two major domains, it was just a Tsushima Strait.

Therefore, in the dispute between the north and the south, there was no lack of opportunities to kill and plunder, and in the long run, it became a bad debt entangled in grievances, especially the large island of Kyushu under the rule of Dazaifu. The past and allusions of falling in love and killing each other are simply not too many.

Although the other party has always claimed to be the Andong people of the Ping Domain of the National Dynasty, Andong can be said to have a variety of races, and naturally there are three, six, nine and so on, the most capable of fighting is of course the Bohai race, and the weakest is undoubtedly the Silla people.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the smell of Silla suddenly made these Japanese soldiers extremely excited and irritable.

As the leader, Kuroshima Ren also took a lot of effort to personally whip and cut down some hot-blooded guys, so as to restrain his subordinates who were almost violent and remind them of the training and formation they usually received, so that they would not rush up and fight with each other.
