"Be careful all the way, this general will lead the main army to march into Yinling early tomorrow morning to meet the general." Peach Leopard said softly.

"General Xie is complete, and the last general will go to prepare." Zhang raised his fists and turned to leave.

Two hours later, the sky gradually darkened, Zhang Ju commanded an army of 10,000 people, left Dangtu City with full food and strict clothing, and rushed to the Yin Tomb, which was nearly a hundred miles away.

#####

At noon on the second day, the soldiers who were in charge of investigating the enemy's situation found the Zhang Ju Army, Hua'an and Yinling garrisons, and several officers of the cavalry corps of the Northern Expeditionary Army, who were in a hurry, and gathered together to discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy.

Everyone had just finished deliberating, and the enemy army had already approached the city, but fortunately, the city defense preparations were relatively sufficient, and everyone was full of confidence in defending the city.

Zhang Ju, the main general of the enemy army, looked at the not tall Yinling City in front of him, and a flame erupted from his eyes, his son died under this city, and he wanted the people of the city to be buried together.

"Order, take the city ahead, kill all men, women, and children, and leave no one behind." Zhang Ju first gave the order to slaughter the city after it was broken.

"Take the city, men, women, and children, and leave no one behind."

"Take the city, men, women, and children, and leave no one behind."

The heralds galloped through the formation, conveying the order to slaughter the city to the ears of every soldier.

"Siege." Zhang Ju drew his sword and gave a loud command.

"Kill ......"

Suddenly, the forward 5,000 men and horses roared and rushed towards Yinling City, and the catapults behind smashed huge stones into the Yinling City Wall.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The boulder hit the city wall, making a dull roar, and the not thick female wall was smashed out of cracks, and the Jin soldiers defending the city had nowhere to hide, and immediately more than a dozen soldiers were hit by the roaring boulders and died on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, a group of burning fireballs fell from the sky, and the fireworks splashed on the city wall made the soldiers defending the city a little unable to break their eyes, and many soldiers were smoked everywhere, and the scene was suddenly a little chaotic.

"Don't panic, hold on to the city." Hua An shouted a shout.

At this time, the enemy's siege troops had already entered the range of bows and arrows, but many of the soldiers defending the city were scurrying around with smoke and fire, which made Hua'an very anxious.

Fortunately, the enemy's fireball only attacked for a few rounds before stopping, and the smoke on the city walls gradually dissipated, and the soldiers defending the city returned to the battlements and fired sharp arrows at the besieging enemy.

After a few rounds of firing, the enemy army was already under the city, dozens of ladders began to slowly erect the city wall, hoplites with heavy shields began to climb upwards, the archers on the ground were covering with all their might, and the siege car was crashing against the city gate.

Seeing that the enemy army has complete siege equipment, but Yinling City is not a strong city, and there are not many defenders in the city, that is, among the few defenders, the cavalry stands in the vast majority, and these cavalry are naturally not good at defending the city, which makes Hua'an, who is responsible for defending the city wall, a big headache.

The enemy's retaliation was so rapid, Hua'an originally expected that the enemy army would come quickly, and it must be a lightly armed force dominated by cavalry, but he did not expect that the enemy was mainly heavy infantry, and the siege catapults, ladders, giant shields, siege crashes and other equipment were readily available, which brought great pressure to the Jin army defending the city.

If you give up defending the city at this time, with the speed of the cavalry, you can retreat to the east city in the rear very smoothly, so as to preserve your strength and fight again in the future, but the people in the city will be miserable, the enemy army has lost two thousand light cavalry under the city before, and on the day of breaking the city, you will definitely take the people out of anger, the brutality and bloodiness of the Zhao army, everyone knows, and it is not impossible to wash the city in blood, and Hua'an can't bear to let this kind of thing happen.

At this time, as there was no better way than to defend with all his might, Hua An made up his mind to fight with his subordinates and repel the enemy.

The enemy siege force attacked forward like crazy, and half of the troops in the distance were pressed behind, which caused a lot of psychological pressure on the soldiers defending the city.

Seeing that the enemy troops under the city were gathering more and more, Hua An decisively ordered the soldiers to lift the stones and smash them at the besieging enemy.

Suddenly, the rolling wood and stones on the city wall tilted down together, and the dense 'stone rain' caused a lot of damage to the enemy army for a while, but the number of enemy troops attacking the city was too much, and this loss was not enough to destroy the morale of the enemy attack.

Just after a stone attack, the enemy army besieging the city began a frantic attack again, the giant shield erected under the city greatly weakened the damage suffered by the enemy army, the enemy army in the sword and shield soldiers soon climbed up the ladder to the top of the city, and fought with the Jin army defending the city through the female wall, and the archers responsible for covering the city under the city hid behind the giant shield and shot at the Jin army defending on the city wall.

It was a terrible battle of flesh grinding, a battle in which both sides paid a huge price of casualties, and the walls were littered with the corpses of hundreds of soldiers, while the living soldiers were still fighting bloodily.

Hua An waved the big knife in his hand and slashed more than a dozen enemy soldiers who climbed up the ladder in a row, and the blood stained the battle robes red, which inspired Hua An's determination to fight to the death.

"Click, click." Due to disrepair, the gate of Yinling City was scarred by the impact, and the wooden pillar behind the city gate could not withstand the impact for a long time and made a breaking sound.

Yinling City is a small city, there is no urn city behind the city gate for buffering, as long as the enemy army crashes through the city gate, you can directly rush into the city along the city gate, so as to meet the defenders in close combat.

And once the short-handed encounter, the Jin army, which is at a disadvantage, will face annihilation, and the people of the whole city will not escape the doom.

At this time, dozens of soldiers of the Jin army, tightly clinging to the wooden pillars that were about to break, were making a final effort, and some soldiers directly blocked the city gate with their bodies, and used their flesh and blood to resist the attack of the enemy army attacking the city and crashing into the car.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Apparently hearing the sound of wooden pillars breaking, the morale of the enemy was suddenly shaken, and the siege vehicles crashed into the city gate more frequently.

Every impact shook the soldiers of the Jin army who were behind them into severe pain, and several thin soldiers were even more shaken and rolled over, spitting blood, but none of them retreated, and everyone understood what it meant once the city gate was breached.

"Brigade commander, brigade commander, most of the wooden pillars behind the city gate are broken, and the city gate is about to be unguarded, what should I do?" A small soldier hurried up the city wall and reported to Hua'an.

Hua An was shocked when he heard this, the battlefield was very loud, and he naturally couldn't hear the breaking sound of the wooden pillar standing on the city wall.

"The city gate must not be lost, you immediately notify the garrison, transfer all the defenders who can be used, you must completely block the city gate, and not let an enemy enter the city." Huaan shouted.

"Yes, Brigade Marshal." When the soldiers heard the order, they immediately went to inform the Yinling garrison.
