Chapter 114: The Difficult Chengyin City (for Wu Shenghe's head to add more)
Zhou Kai heard the proposal of the military marquis around him to draw troops from the other three city walls, Zhou Kai couldn't help but smile bitterly, although the army of the Wuheng clan outside the city had only besieged Chengyin City for two days, but the situation of Chengyin City was already very bad.

After the army of the Wuheng clan came to Chengyin City yesterday, in addition to the four hundred and nine border soldiers in Zhou Kai's hands, he had to count himself, there were only more than 800 men recruited from Chengyin City, and these more than 800 men, including the old man with white hair, and the fourteen or five-year-old boys, it can be said that as long as the men in Chengyin City can take up arms, they have all climbed the city wall.
However, yesterday the Wuheng people attacked the city seven times, so that Chengyin City lost one hundred and sixty-four border soldiers and more than three hundred and fifty men in the city, today this only repelled an attack of the Wuheng people, from the situation on the city wall, it can be seen that the loss of this point of strength in their hands is not small, according to such a casualty rate, it may not take long, Chengyin City will have no soldiers available.
Zhou Kai asked the military marquis beside him, "How many people are left in the north city wall now?" ”
"Alas, my lord, on the north city wall, there are only ninety-eight brothers left in our border army, and there are only one hundred and twenty-six men left in the city, the Wuheng people attacked the city this time, and we lost dozens of people on the north city wall, and now the Wuheng people have been attacking the north city wall, it is better to draw some people from the other three city walls, we have more than 200 people left, guarding the three-mile long city wall, it is really difficult."
Chengyin County is three miles long from east to west and north to south, and the area of the entire Chengyin City is about 2.25 square kilometers.
Zhou Kai hesitated for a moment and said: "Yesterday, I have already transferred people from the other three city walls, and now there are only thirty border soldiers and one hundred men in the city on each city wall, and we can't draw people anymore, so we have to guard against the Wuheng people from sneaking up on the other three city walls!" Now, gather the adult women of the city and let them go up to the walls, and we will have to hold on no matter what! ”
The military marquis nodded, once the Wuheng people broke through Chengyin City, whether it was the old and weak, women and children in the city, it would be difficult to be spared, in order to keep Chengyin City, there was no way to let women go to the city wall, in various cities on the border of the Great Jin Dynasty, in the face of the siege of the murderous Hu people, it was not uncommon for women to go up to the city wall to help defend the city.
More than a mile away from the north wall of Chengyin City, three or four thousand Wuheng cavalry saw that the foot soldiers who were attacking the city retreated, and they couldn't help but talk about it, this Chengyin City is too difficult to attack, their 13 Wuheng small tribes of the coalition army, yesterday was already under the north wall of Chengyin City, lost nearly 2,000 people, today's first siege of the city, they lost hundreds of people, so go on, their coalition army will have to fight out if it is not good.
In front of the three or four thousand Wuheng cavalry, there are 13 leaders of the small tribes of the Wuheng tribe, most of these leaders are the patriarchs of various tribes, after all, this time the 13 small tribes of the Wuheng tribe in order to break through the Chengyin City, but they have invested a lot of money, and some tribes have sent out almost all their cavalry, and the patriarchs of the tribes will not rest assured if they do not follow.
Among the 13 small tribes of the Wuheng tribe, Tie Fashi, the patriarch of the ghost wolf tribe with the strongest strength and the most troops, saw that the soldiers who were attacking the city were defeated and retreated, and his face became very gloomy.
At this time, the patriarch of the Red Wing Tribe next to him, Min Aduo, sneered and said: "Your ghost wolf tribe is nothing more than this, it's not like you're defeated, I don't know who patted your chest last night and promised that you will definitely take Chengyin City this morning!" ”
The grasslands of the 13 small tribes of the Wuheng tribe are all on this grassland north of Chengyin County, and they have a lot of grievances with each other for the grassland, if it were not for the thorn in the side of Chengyin City, these 13 small tribes of the Wuheng tribe will definitely not unite together, and they are too busy competing for the grassland with each other.
Yesterday, it was the turn of the Red Wing Tribe to send troops to attack the city, and after returning home, the patriarch of the Ghost Wolf Tribe, Tie Fa Shi, sneered at the patriarch of the Red Wing Tribe, Min Aduo.
Tie Fa Shi, the patriarch of the ghost wolf tribe, snorted coldly and said: "Who said that our ghost wolf tribe can't take Chengyin City this morning, you wait, this patriarch personally leads the warriors of the ghost wolf tribe, and this will knock down Chengyin City!" However, according to the previous agreement, whichever tribe first conquers Chengyin City will get half of the booty and slaves of Chengyin City, and the rest will be divided equally among the 12 tribes! ”
Immediately, Tie Fashi collected the defeated soldiers of the Ghost Wolf Tribe who had retreated, and ordered the other nine hundred Ghost Wolf Tribe cavalry to dismount, and then took more than 1,300 soldiers of the Ghost Wolf Tribe, carrying a long ladder and rushing to the north wall of Chengyin City again.
Min Aduo, the patriarch of the Red Wing Tribe, saw his agitation method, and asked the patriarch of the Ghost Wolf Tribe, Tie Fashi, to put all the troops he led into the siege, and a trace of smug eyes flashed in his eyes, you must know that the grassland of the Ghost Wolf Tribe and the Red Wing Tribe are next to each other, but the Ghost Wolf Tribe has more than 2,000 cavalry, and the cavalry of the Red Wing Tribe is only 1,200 cavalry, so the Red Wing Tribe has been pressed by the Ghost Wolf Tribe, and even a part of the Red Wing Tribe has been forcibly occupied by the Ghost Wolf Tribe.
If the ghost wolf tribe can lose some more people here in Chengyin City, Min Aduo can't ask for it, and if the patriarch of the ghost wolf tribe, Tie Fashi, can be stabbed to death by the Chengyin City member, it will be even more perfect.
These small tribes of the Wuheng tribe near Chengyin City have long heard that there is a fierce general in Chengyin City, with the courage of ten thousand people, this time 13 small tribes formed a coalition to attack Chengyin City, only to know that the rumors are true, yesterday there were many tribes of warriors who attacked the city, and even many centurions and thousands of commanders of various tribes, all died in the hands of a young general in Chengyin City.
Yesterday, the eight hundred cavalry of the Red Wing tribe dismounted and attacked the city, and the best martial arts commander under the tribal patriarch Min Aduo was stabbed to death by Zhou Kai with two shots, which made Min Aduo feel distressed enough.
In addition, yesterday the Red Wing tribe attacked the northern wall of Chengyin City alone, and lost more than 200 people at once, if it wasn't for Min Aduo seeing that the situation was not good, he directly ordered to stop continuing to attack the city, maybe the loss of the Red Wing tribe yesterday would have increased a lot.
It was because the Red Wing Tribe suffered a lot of losses yesterday that the patriarch Min Aduo hoped that the Ghost Wolf Tribe could lose some more cavalry here in Chengyin City.
Like the 13 small tribes that attacked Chengyin City this time, although there are also thousands of commanders and centurions under the command of the patriarch, there is a serious shortage of soldiers and horses under the command of these commanders and centurions.
For example, the Red Wing tribe only has 1,200 cavalry, but there are 5 thousand commanders under the command of the patriarch Min Aduo, except for the more than 300 cavalry directly under the patriarch Min Aduo, each commander only has one or two hundred cavalry under his hands.
