Chu Jing first took the three of them to Dongcheng, where Qin Jian was in charge.

I saw Qin Jian standing at the highest point of the city wall, the long sword in his hand was eager to try, and he was not shocked by the tens of thousands of enemy troops outside.

This is not a good phenomenon, because generals should not have a belligerent heart, and this will become a big flaw in turning the tide of the war.

"Good work!"

Chu Jing walked forward, then led out Zhou Tailai, and said, "This is a fierce general, and he is in charge of here." ”

Qin Jian nodded, he was not a commander in the first place, he was a killer who personally took down the enemy's head, and it couldn't be better to have someone to take over his job.

Seeing that Qin Jian had to compromise so easily and was about to walk in the direction of the northern city, Chu Jing hurriedly said, "The southern city wall still needs your help. ”

"......" Qin Jian glanced at Chu Jing coldly, "I need to sharpen my sword with blood!"

"You have this opportunity. ”

Chu Jing made a promise, and Qin Jian was silent and followed behind him.

There were 10,000 defenders on the eastern city wall, and Chu Jing summoned all the generals above the centurion and said to them: "This person will be your commander in the future, do you have any opinions?"

"But you want to interfere with our chief?" a general asked.

Chu Jing nodded: "Yes, his orders are military orders, and you must carry them out unconditionally." ”

Leaders, you look at me, I look at you, looking like you want to talk and stop.

Qin Jian is powerful, he once won down five powerful assassins with the power of one person, and the most important thing is that he never pointed fingers, he didn't understand and was not interested in military affairs, so the generals allowed his existence.

But......

Who is this person, although he is relatively strong and looks like he knows some kung fu, but this is an army, not strong enough to be strong, but also to have prestige and know how to tactics.

It is clear that the generals here have great distrust of Zhou Tai.

"Lord of the City, the defense of the East City can be handled by a few of us, and we don't need you to send someone to help. ”

This general said it very tactfully, but Chu Jing is not a generous and benevolent city lord, not even gentle, he is a tyrant, a dictator, and he wants to control everything in Renjin City.

Just as Chu Jing did to the people in the city, he would never allow a second voice in the army.

"Zhou Tai!"

Zhou Tai stepped forward and shouted, "Who dares to fight with me?"

The generals were overwhelmed by the momentum, and they didn't dare to fight, not to mention that Chu Jing was here, although it might be an opportunity to perform, it was also possible to leave a bad impression.

Zhou Tai waved the big knife in his hand, pointed at the generals, and shouted: "Let's go together!"

After shouting this, Zhou Tai was like a tiger descending the mountain, strayed into the flock, a big knife opened and closed, waving the wind and water, and the generals were completely untogether, and they were all pulled out by the back of the knife.

"Good knife technique!"

Chu Jing smiled and clapped his hands, making Zhou Tai stop, and the rest of the generals were convinced under Zhou Tai's might.

Even if they are not convinced for the time being, when they are on the battlefield, they will once again see Zhou Tai fighting bravely to kill the enemy like a life, and they will naturally return to their hearts.

Qin Jian saw clearly in the back that Zhou Tai's strength was extraordinary, almost equal to him, but the moves were all moves on the battlefield, and it was much worse to fight alone, and this kind of deadly fighting style had a miraculous effect, but it could also become a fatal weakness.

Chu Jing left Zhou Tai in Dongcheng and let him and the generals slowly temper their feelings, Zhou Tai is really capable, and he will definitely be able to subdue them.

Then Chu Jing took Yu Ban, Meng Shu, and Qin Jian to Xicheng, and of course, Zirui, who was "ghostly", she just watched, observed, and studied silently, and did not intervene.

The person in charge of the western city wall was Qin Yue, but at this time, she was not patrolling the city wall, but refining the herbs that Chu Jing gave last time in a house below.

After such a long time, Qin Yue had actually cultivated several pills, but he had never had the opportunity to give them to Chu Jing.

Seeing Chu Jing coming, although there were still two people he didn't know behind him, Qin Yue was still very excited and handed Chu Jing a few small porcelain bottles.

"Brother Chu, you see, I have made the six spirits, the chaotic heart dust, and the yellow spring water!"

Chu Jing held the small porcelain bottle, and when he heard that it contained these things, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his head, he had seen how powerful Qin Yue was with poison, and the ghost knew how vicious these three things would be that scared people to death just by hearing their names.

Chu Jing hurriedly put the small porcelain bottle into the mustard seed bag, pointed to the tall and burly Meng Shu behind him, and said, "I came today to let him defend the city instead of you." ”

"Oh. ”

Qin Yue casually agreed, and continued to flip through the "Ten Thousand Medicine Divine Codex" and tinkered with his own elixir.

Chu Jing said helplessly: "You and your brother need to go to Nancheng, where it is more ...... You guys are needed. ”

Qin Yue raised her head, her innocent eyes blinked, "Why do you want to go, can't we just poison them and kill them all?"

I really don't know whether to say that Qin Yue is simple, or if she doesn't know how to revere life at all, how can she just do such a thing as poisoning.

But......

Chu Jing still quietly asked, "But there are 300,000 people out there, do you have so many poisons?"

Qin Yue tilted her little head and thought about it, and shook her head: "I don't have it here, I don't know that all the herbs in the Renjin City Pharmacy are used to prepare poisons, and there may be hope to get them together, but it is too difficult to poison people outside the city, but it is much easier to poison people in the city." ”

Chu Jing didn't think about sneaking out to cut off the supply of the Great Prince's army, but that would be too risky, and unless Zirui was willing to do it, it would be difficult for others to succeed.

What's more, now the situation has changed again, there are three cities behind the prince as supply points, whether it is fighting or retreating, he has the absolute initiative, and he will not collapse at all because of food and grass and other problems.

On the contrary, it is Renjin City, although food and other materials are distributed by the city lord's mansion, especially the large amount of food obtained by the rich, there will be no shortage for the time being.

But the number of soldiers is a big problem, there are only 50,000 people, and one less is dead, if the other party insists on attacking, soon, the soldiers under Chu Jing will be consumed before the city is broken.

In the end, Chu Jing still persuaded Qin Yue to go to Nancheng, as for Meng Shu, this big guy went to that station, and the other generals had nothing to say, of course, Chu Jing also strictly ordered Meng Shu to be clever and make some kind of moths, but he got much less power than Zhou Tailai.

Chu Jing did not go to the southern city, but returned to the northern city with Yu Ban.

Going up to the city tower in Beicheng, Chu Jing pointed to the 100,000 army outside and said: "Outside is the army of the Great Prince, all of them are elite soldiers and strong generals, and they are more than several times stronger than those who defend the city." ”

Yu Ban said: "The enemy is strong, but we have the advantage of defending the city, although there are fewer people, but there is no need to worry at all." ”

Seeing that Yu Ban said it confidently, it made Chu Jing a little uneasy.

After that, it was Yu Ban who redeployed the defense of the northern city according to his thoughts, and those ordinary people were also recruited to help the soldiers carry the equipment of the city defense and deal with all kinds of miscellaneous matters.

Where have the common people seen such a big scene of 100,000 troops besieging the city, and when they got up to the city wall, they trembled, and they couldn't walk steadily, and they could barely go down the city tower.

Seeing this, Chu Jing quietly summoned the magistrate and issued an order: "Anyone who dares to make alarmist statements, increase the prestige of others, destroy the morale of his own side, and disturb the morale of the army will be killed!"

The sheriff shuddered, and hurriedly began to patrol the city with the security team.

Chu Jing understood a truth, Yu Ban came from the Three Kingdoms era, and it was normal to kill people and set fires in that era, and attack the camp and pull out the village.

Everyone has suffered from the flames of war, and they have long been accustomed to the scenes of war, and where can they still feel fear.

On the other hand, the monarchy is quite centralized, and the common people have almost no thoughts of their own, and will only obey orders, and there are very few things where the people rebel themselves.

It is different from the Divine Continent, these people used to know not only the Emperor of Xinguo, but also the former city lord, they are educated and proficient in martial arts, even if they don't know martial arts, after a long time of contact with the unruliness of martial artists, they will no longer be as easy to slaughter as chickens and ducks.

Chu Jing is most worried about whether the people in the city will have any bad chain reaction after seeing the power of the eldest prince.

If the rumors spread in the city, would the rich and powerful people force him to surrender?

For three days, the army of the Great Prince did nothing for three days outside Renjin City.

Inside the camp.

The eldest prince Qin Yuying sat at the top, Qi Lin sat down, and the three city lords of Juyun City, Yuanwang City, and Black Sheep City also sat on the left and right, and the other generals did not sit at this pre-war meeting.

"How's the siege equipment going?" asked the eldest prince.

Qi Lin stood up and said: "A batch has been transported from Juyun City, Yuanwang City, and Black Sheep City, and a batch has also been rushed in the army, so it is completely ready to launch a general attack." ”

The eldest prince was overjoyed, glanced at the three city lords, and said, "Are you three willing to serve as a pioneer for me?"

The three city lords glanced at each other bitterly, and said in unison: "I am willing to smear your majesty's liver and brain, and I will not hesitate to do anything!"

"Okay, each of the three of you will draw 10,000 men and immediately launch an offensive against the North City Gate!"

The three city lords were ordered to go down, but fortunately it was only 30,000 people, which only made their hearts ache, and it was not enough to kill them.

However, when they go to the battlefield, these 30,000 people will rarely make it back alive.

After the three city lords left, Qi Lin asked, "Do you want the other three city walls to attack at the same time?"

The eldest prince sneered and said, "Chu Jing disperses his own troops, we only need Gong Xia to have a city wall, why waste troops in other places, of course, if he dares to withdraw his troops from other places, then attack somewhere." ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

As a result, the 30,000 soldiers who surrendered to the city lord began to erect hundreds of ladders, and raised the cloud chariot that was a section higher than the city wall, and observed the situation on the city wall, and the banner soldiers commanded from above.

There are also building cars for archers to shoot, and the crash cars that rush open the city gates, and for a time the drums are beating loudly, shouting to the sky.

Yu Ban stood on the tower of the city and saw the enemy's siege troops coming from all sides, so he ordered 3,000 soldiers to carry rockets and scatter them on the city wall, and when the ladders, cloud carts, building cars, and crash cars approached the range of fire, it was a volley.

The siege equipment was made of wood, and it took three days to melt the steel equipment, and after the rockets were fired on the city wall, the ladder was burned, and most of the soldiers on the ladder were burned to death.

Not only that, but the other soldiers defending the city were not idle, and for a time the arrows rained down, and the 30,000 army suffered heavy losses.

The eldest prince frowned at the camp for a while, there was no suitable siege equipment at that time, and the siege was very difficult, but now that there are siege equipment, it seems that the situation has not improved, and the other party is getting better and better at defending the city.

He turned his head and asked Qi Lin, "How is the tunnel dug?"

Qi Lin replied: "In three days, there was almost no progress. ”

"Alas!" the eldest prince sighed deeply, "it seems that the army is going to be pressed." ”

The remaining 70,000 troops belonging to the Blood Wolf Legion also rushed forward, and the 100,000 troops rushed to the north wall together, looking dense and crowded with human heads, like ants.

There were 10,000 defenders on the city wall, and nearly 10,000 people left on standby for rotation had to climb the city wall, and less than 20,000 people shot at the crowd of ants under the city with a dense rain of arrows, and even smashed the pre-prepared rolling logs and stones.

The recruited people carried another batch of fortification materials onto the city wall to fill the previous consumption.

Under such heavy pressure, even if an army of 100,000 is unable to attack the city wall.

"It's just a blood wolf army, but that's it. Yu Ban smiled, as if he had a full grasp of this battle.

Chu Jing couldn't stand this kind of killing scene, and just wanted to let him, a person from the civilized world, vomit out his internal organs.

Holding his breath, Chu Jing walked up to Yu Ban, and shouted loudly on the noisy battlefield: "Hurry up and arrange to save the wounded, our soldiers only have so many, we can't let them die in vain." ”

Now only Chu Jing is still concerned about those wounded on the battlefield, and everyone else has already poured blood into their brains and is completely out of control.

The battlefield is full of arrows, fire, and madman soldiers.

Those who climbed the ladder climbed up desperately, and the soldiers who threw down the stones looked at their pale brains and smiled like innocent children.

Compared to the soldiers who struggled to climb the walls through ladders, the archers on the carts were the ones who did the most damage to the defenders.

Chu Jing couldn't bear to see his few soldiers die here again, hoping that Yu Ban could help those wounded.

Yu Ban originally didn't care about the wounded, but he didn't dare to refute at Chu Jing's request, and assigned a part of the people who carried the materials to defend the city to carry the wounded to the city.

As long as the city wall is down, the people of the security team will naturally arrest Lang Zhong and treat the wounded soldiers.

The battle lasted for three days.

100,000 people stormed the city wall for three days in a row, and the first 30,000 soldiers of the city lord did not stir up any waves, and became a layer of corpses on the ground.

The defenders of the northern wall were also exhausted for a long time, and many soldiers were not killed by the enemy, but three days of high-intensity labor, exhausted to death,

Yu Ban also didn't blink for three days, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair was stained with dust, and his sword was also stained with the blood of enemy soldiers.

On several occasions, he personally went up from the top and engaged the enemy who climbed the city wall, killing more than 200 people, and it was precisely because of his courage to kill the enemy that he boosted morale and did not let the defenders collapse.

After seeing Chu Jing, he walked over quickly and said loudly: "The enemy attack is too fierce, we must need support!"

Chu Jing couldn't bear to see him, but he still said: "Without support, the 200,000 troops of the enemy army surrounding the other three walls have not moved, and we can't move either." ”

"But...... But the soldiers can't hold on, our soldiers are no match for the enemy, three days is already the limit!"

The losses of the other side are far greater than ours, and our soldiers are just tired, but they are really suffering heavy casualties, and we are not without a chance of victory. ”

At the same time, the situation is similar on the side of the eldest prince.

There was a lot of war outside, how could the eldest prince sleep peacefully, for three days, he was distressed during the day, and he couldn't sleep at night.

He anxiously paced back and forth in the camp tent and asked Qi Lin, "Should we remove a batch of troops and let them rotate with other soldiers from Dongcheng?" ”

"No, Your Majesty, never!"

Qi Lin shook his head vigorously and continued: "Now that the battlefield has entered a white heat, if you withdraw your troops rashly, it will definitely be a great blow to morale. ”

"Moreover, it is not said that the situation on the battlefield can be improved with the addition of fresh blood. The city wall is so big, many of our soldiers didn't even touch the side of the city wall, and their physical strength was enough. ”

"But...... Is it really worth exchanging a soldier's life for a city?"

Qi Lin didn't know how to answer, and was silent for a while.

When the siege began, it was not something that could be easily stopped.

Zirui didn't know when she came to Chu Jing's side, maybe she had been there all along, but she didn't want to be noticed before.

"These lives are really worthless, you say life is precious, and what about them? die here like this, for the so-called throne. ”

Chu Jing retorted: "It's not for the throne, they're for the money, to support themselves and their families." ”

"But there are many ways to make money......" Zirui was puzzled.

"But for some people, this is the only job they have, and they don't want to change it. ”

"Uh...... I don't understand ......."

Chu Jing smiled: "If everyone can understand, the world will not be like this." ”

Zirui asked again, "What are you going to do now?"

Chu Jing asked rhetorically, "Do you want to help them?"

Zirui nodded and shook her head: "I don't want to care about human affairs. ”

"Human things......

Chu Jing suddenly took out a card, looked at it for a long time, and said, "Maybe I can help them." ”

This card is none other than Zhang Jiao, who is known as the "Heavenly General".

Zhang Jiao, as a three-and-a-half-level card, is naturally not the liar who bewitches the people, but a person who really has the Dao Law, as for how high his Dao Law is, Chu Jing doesn't know.

However, if he can summon more soldiers, he will definitely be able to relieve the siege of Renjin City, and it is even very likely that he will counterattack and catch the prince off guard.
