After accepting Cheng Gongying's suggestion, Han Sui did not have the slightest delay, and immediately ordered all the soldiers of Zu Li to be assembled, without the slightest delay, and the next morning quickly whipped the horses and went down towards Linjing City, Han Sui gathered nearly 80,000 troops, vowing to level Linjing City.

Yang Qiu had actually been paying attention to the movements of Han Sui's army for a long time, and when Han Sui's forward army came to a place a hundred miles away from Linjing City, Yang Qiu had already received the news, but he was not afraid, but showed the quality of a good general, and deployed defensive matters in an orderly manner with the assistance of Du Xi.

A few days later, Han Sui led a large army to the city and shouted at the city: "Yang Qiu, traitor, why don't you surrender to me quickly?" I remember the feelings of the past, I can spare your dog's life, otherwise, once our army arrives in the city, you will definitely die. ”

"Hmph, General Han Yue, there is no need to say anything about this matter, since I have decided to belong to the Great Han, this heart will not change again, you and I are now friends and enemies, there is nothing to say between you and me, my Yang Qiu's blood can be shed, and my head can be broken, but if you want me to surrender, it is impossible, don't talk nonsense, the big knife in my hand is already hungry and thirsty, if you have the ability, you can attack!"

Yang Qiu resolutely rejected Han Sui's persuasion, which made Han Sui suddenly annoyed, and said sharply: "Since you are so obsessed, then don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings, pass on my order, the soldiers of the three armies will immediately attack the city, and after the city is broken, let you and others wantonly rob and kill for three days!" ”

......After hearing Han Sui's order, everyone cheered loudly, and the morale of the army immediately rose, and then they began to attack the city with a roar.

At the same time, Yang Qiu shouted at the soldiers defending the city: "Soldiers, in front of us are the fierce enemies who want to slaughter the people of our city, and in the rear are our homes, the people in the city, which are by our parents, wives and children, in order to ensure that they are not humiliated and slaughtered by thieves, we have no way to retreat now, we have to fight to the death!" ”

Every time Yang Qiu traveled to a place at the head of the city, he screamed loudly, and in the end his voice was hoarse, but he didn't bother to take a sip of water, and still shouted loudly like this, conveying his determination to resist to the end to every soldier.

At this time, his "risk" skills played a role, and in the face of nearly five times the number of troops, the soldiers defending the city were not afraid of death and bravely defended the city.

At the beginning, they relied on the well-prepared defensive equipment to launch a frantic counterattack against the attacking enemy troops, rolling logs, stones, bows and arrows and other objects as if they did not want money, and poured down on the enemy troops besieging the city.

This kind of powerful counterattack naturally caused a lot of casualties to the enemy, and the war had just been going on for half an hour, and Han Sui's various military horses had already suffered nearly 2,000 casualties, and even Han Sui was a little frightened by such damage.

"Damn Yang Qiu, these city-guarding equipment was originally built by me at a huge cost to help him, the purpose was to ask him to help me block Liu He, but now I didn't expect that all of them were the enemy, and they were used by this guy to deal with our army, this time I captured Yang Qiu, I will definitely break him into pieces!"

Faced with such a powerful counterattack, Han Sui's determination to attack the city not only did not waver in the slightest, but ordered the army to continue to intensify the attack, and anyone who slackened off would be dealt with by military law.

"There are few thieves, and although the defensive equipment seems to be sufficient, in fact, they have only been preparing for more than a month, and then they have consumed a lot when Liu He attacked, we only need to attack for two days at most, and their defensive equipment will be consumed, and at that time, see how they can defend?"

On the one hand, Han Sui strictly ordered the army to continue the attack, and on the other hand, he constantly tried to find ways to boost morale.

And his sergeants really did not live up to his expectations, even those warlords who did not belong to him were fighting very bravely, after all, these warlords are still very young, and they are not good at things like conspiracy and calculation, plus Han Sui has always been very prestigious in Liangzhou, plus now everyone is cold, if they don't work together, the only thing waiting for them is to perish, so they are all very heroic, without the slightest hint of stealing and cheating.

However, even so, they still did not weaken the courage of the defenders in the slightest, and in the face of enemies several times their size, they all preferred to die and forgot to die to protect the city in front of them and the home behind them.

In just one day, the defenders suffered nearly 3,000 casualties, which is nearly half of the strength in the city! Such heavy casualties made the defenders' hearts very heavy, but they couldn't care about sadness at all, taking advantage of the enemy's retreat, repairing the city overnight, rushing to build the city defense equipment, and during this period, the Taishou Yang Qiu kept running back and forth, and the trusted county lieutenant Du Xian has been guarding the front line, just this day's work, even the stability of Yang Qiu, including all the soldiers were deeply impressed by the new county lieutenant, they really couldn't imagine that such a person who seemed to be a weak scholar was so tenacious, On this day he was hit by three arrows, and even once the feather arrow was shot in the thigh, and his body was soaked in blood, but he still gritted his teeth and continued to lead the army in the city to fight in person, and on this day alone, hundreds of enemy troops died at his hands.

Of course, the defenders also caused heavy casualties to the enemy at the same time, in one day, nearly 10,000 people under Han Sui's command lost their combat ability, from this aspect, the defenders can be said to have achieved brilliant results, but this made the gap between the enemy and us widened even more, coupled with a significant reduction in the defense equipment, it is estimated that the situation on the battlefield tomorrow will be more severe.

"Hey, what's the big deal? At most, we all died in battle, and our heads fell off, but a scar the size of a bowl, and eighteen years later, we are all good men again, and there is nothing to say about this battle, there is just death. A general named Chen Li under Yang Qiu's command was full of pride and laughed loudly.

saw Du Xi shouting: "Confused! It doesn't matter if we die, but what about the people behind us? What about our parents, wives and children? Therefore, we naturally have to fight to the death in this battle, but it does not mean that it is over if we die, even if we die, we must die under the condition of ensuring that Linjing City is not lost. Now it is estimated that the lord will almost be able to capture the four counties of Hexi, and if he holds on for another seven or eight days at most, the lord's army will be able to arrive, and the northland county is estimated to choose to surrender in these two days, so that we will usher in the reinforcements from the north, and the reinforcements from both roads will arrive, I believe that as long as we hold on until they arrive, we will be able to ensure that Linjing City will not be lost. ”

"That's what Lieutenant Du said, but how can we hold on for seven or eight days? It's only been one day, and we've suffered so many casualties, and if we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to live in five days, and we'll be wiped out, and by that time, we'll still not be able to hold Linjing City." Chen Li's face was full of anxiety, and he smiled helplessly.

"I have a plan to make Han Sui retire temporarily." Du Xi smiled faintly, looked at Chen Li and said.
