Chapter 423 To stop the enemy, the North Gate troops withdrew and waited to break the city, and the enemy array was brightly lit

The offensive launched by General Peng exceeded Li Ziyu's expectations.

Starting from about a pillar of incense before sunset, tens of thousands of Changsha soldiers frantically poured towards Pingjiang City. The gates of Pingjiang City were attacked with unprecedented fierceness.

Fortunately, after Li Ziyu withdrew to Pingjiang, he strengthened the defense line in time. Although he was unable to attack again, he also knew that he had to defend the mouth of Pingjiang, otherwise, he would really not be able to explain to Xu Lang.

Therefore, although General Peng's offensive was fierce, he failed to attack for a while. After losing a thousand people under Pingjiang City, he had to order the collection of troops, but he camped half a mile away from the city, and he didn't want Li Ziyu to stop.

"Pass my order, each battalion is on duty in two shifts, and no one is allowed to leave his post without permission and not to doze off!"

Li Ziyu looked at the enemy camp tent not far away, which was lighting up, and ordered in a deep voice.

The enemy is several times larger than their own, and it is difficult to protect them from such a fierce eye, and they will not launch another wave of offensive at night.

It's a headache.

Earlier, Simon had some of the valiant men of the enemy army rushing to the head of the city. Fortunately, the senior brother Chu Yunzhi helped in time, and with a hand back to the Yan Sword, he slashed several people in a row, so as to stabilize the defense of the West Gate.

But after all, there are few masters like senior brothers in this camp. Once the enemy army has reached the top of the city, if it is not cut down quickly, the city gate will fall in an instant.

"Pass my order, divide the soldiers of the north gate into three parts, and go to the east and west south gates, damn it, this general doesn't believe it, and he can't hold this Pingjiang City!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Ziyu gave another fierce order.

This rhythm is a completely non-reluctant way to leave yourself behind. You must know that the soldiers who withdrew the north gate were giving up the defense of the back gate, which was both bold and dangerous.

However, the military orders are like a mountain, how dare his subordinates say anything? Besides, the enemy's army is approaching the city, and at this time, it is really infinitely worried that it will not be pressed on all fronts.

After about an hour, the 3,000 soldiers at the north gate, 1,000 at one gate, were all in place.

And the enemy army outside the city is also brightly lit.

"They are also in a hurry, such a posture, Changsha City is broken, I am afraid that it will be in the past two days. As long as I can hold Pingjiang, I will block their retreat, and when the time comes, when General Xu and General Ling divide their troops to help, the situation will be reversed. ”

Li Ziyu looked at Chu Yunzhi, who was also worried, and smiled faintly.

This is indeed true.

"Senior brother, I'm afraid that they will attack the city again at night, after all, we are short of manpower, and the soldiers have fought a few bloody battles, and they are really tired."

What Chu Yunzhi said is not unreasonable.

As a Jianghu man, this is the first time he has fought knife to knife with the big-headed soldiers. It can also be said that it is the most murderous in his life. For a decent and chivalrous man like him, he will never be merciful when he kills evil demons, but this time, how can there be righteousness? Where is evil?

But it's all for each his own master!

He knew this very well. It's just that, after all, he also knows what his junior brother shoulders, and he can also understand the great compassion and big heart of the King of England who thinks of the common people. Therefore, at that moment, Hui Yanjian could only go head-on.

Such a battle is tragic and merciless.

If he doesn't drive the enemy out of the city, it means that more of his own brothers may lose their lives later.

He must not have been a savior, but when Simon was in a hurry, he really became a god of killing.

So, he's also a little tired. He's tired, let alone the other brothers?

"Senior brother, you're right."

Li Ziyu nodded, tonight, I'm afraid it's not so good!
