The sun rises as usual every day, whether someone wants it or not.

It was not a pleasant thing for the defenders of Gangneung to see the sun rise now, as it meant the beginning of a new round of fighting, wounding, bloodshed and death.

It means that when the sun goes down, the people who are still alive will become more tired, painful, and depressed.

But for Wu Jun, how could it not be so.

The Wu army has a huge numerical advantage, but no one knows if the next time the sun rises, the person who will be caught up by the warlords and sent to death will be himself.

The men who hit the gate were killed by waves of arrows, and behind the strong gate, there was something piled up, no matter how long it took to hit it.

Those who climbed the city wall were stoned to death, fell to death, and were showered with boiling water, and even if the lucky ones were about to climb up, they would be poked to death by three or four spears.

No matter what angle they dug from, they would always find a trench dug by the defenders of the city, and then those in front were hacked to death before they could climb out, and those behind were suffocated to death in despair in the pungent and foul-smelling billowing smoke......

Every day, the soldiers of the Wu army would die several times faster than the defenders of Gangneung, and then more people were driven up to their deaths by the generals.

Gangneung City is like an insatiable monster, devouring countless lives with its bloody mouth, and then using these flesh and blood lives as nourishment, giving birth to fear and despair.

After experiencing the excitement and enthusiasm brought by the initial reward and flickering, the current Wu soldiers just numbly watched batch after batch of people go to death every day, and secretly prayed that it would not be their turn.

"Up! Hurry up! "The Wu army was composed of the general's family tribes to form a supervising team, holding swords like driving cattle, driving those young men who were forcibly recruited to drive up.

These men had no armor at all, not even leather armor, and were only given crudely made knives and spears as weapons.

"Hmm...... Ah——!h "This unfortunate young man is still a little green, and he will not be more than 15 years old at most.

He broke down, crying and running back.

Burst!

He was greeted by the warlord's unhesitating sword-wielding.

These people of the Overseer were clearly dressed in fine leather armor and possessed many sophisticated weapons, but they swung their steel knives at him.

This Shanyue teenager who was forcibly conscripted into the army didn't understand why this was until he died.

The others just watched the teenager's death with insensitivity and coldness, and every day people broke down, ran away, and were killed.

At this time, people have been reduced to consumables, and they are no more noble than cattle and horses.

Wang Zuo was patrolling the city walls, checking for gaps, while Zhao Lei and Shen Zhong were talking in a low voice under the city walls.

"Gangneung...... I'm afraid it won't last a few days. Zhao Lei's face was calm when he spoke, as if he was saying that the leftover bread was going to be moldy.

Shen Zhongzheng was concentrating on repairing the slightly damaged Xuan armor in his hand, although he spoke straight and admitted death, he was born with a pair of skillful hands.

At this time, he didn't raise his head and said, "Well, maybe two or three days, maybe three or five days." It's a miracle that it has survived until now. ”

Zhao Lei sat next to him when he heard this, and there was still a deafening shouting in his ears, but the conversation at this moment was equally important.

"We've dragged on for so long, General Guan and the crown prince...... It should have been killed back to Yizhou, right? Zhao Lei smiled slightly, as if he had unloaded a thousand burdens.

It wasn't until today that he finally dared to speak his heart.

But he only dared to say it to people like Shen Zhong who seemed to never despair.

"I have arranged manpower in the key places in the city, once the city is broken, I will set another fire, and the Jiangdong thieves don't want to get a single hair from Jiangling!" Zhao Lei gritted his teeth and was ruthless.

They were besieged in the city, and they couldn't receive any news, and his current message was still stuck in the army going north to collect water.

Subsequent developments can only be speculated.

However, Shen Zhong's words made him feel as if he had poured a basin of cold water: "They can't go back to Yizhou." ”

"What do you say?! Why! Zhao Lei suddenly became excited, his eyes were a little red, and he grabbed Shen Zhong's shoulders a little hysterically, "We have dragged Sun Quan's main force for so long!" Why can't they go back!

"They still have more than 10,000 men, and General Guan can take the rank of general among the ten thousand troops! The prince also has the ability to capture Ding Feng in a thousand armies!

"What kind of thing is Lu Xun! Why can't they go back! Why!! ”

Now, Guan Yu and Liu Chan can successfully return to Yizhou, which is all Zhao Lei's spiritual sustenance.

Coupled with the fierce battle and high pressure that had been hovering on the brink of life and death for several days, he suddenly heard Shen Zhong's words, and he couldn't control his emotions a little.

However, Shen Zhong obviously didn't mind, and after repairing the last piece of armor, he pressed Zhao Lei's hands down, got up, and put the blood-stained Xuan armor that Liu Chan had left for himself on his body again.

Shen Zhong looked at Zhao Lei, there was still no trace of despair in his eyes, and he grinned: "The heir once told us that he wanted to restore the former glory of the Han Dynasty.

"And his favorite sentence is: 'Whoever offends me as a strong man, although he is far away, will be punished; Whoever is a great man, even if he is far away, he will be saved'! ”

At the moment of life and death, Shen Zhong seemed to have a cordial chat with him again, and subconsciously exhaled Liu Chan's words.

And Zhao Lei, who was stunned in place, no longer had the extra capacity in his brain to think about these trivial things at this time.

"The prince never treats his subordinates as outcasts, not in the past, and not this time. At the beginning, he asked us to leave our last words to defend Gangneung, but he still came and did not treat us as outcasts. He will definitely come this time! ”

Zhao Lei's lips moved slightly, but he didn't know what to say.

The look in Shen Zhong's eyes in front of him made him puzzled, and the powerful confidence that seemed to be the crown prince's omnipotence did not come from nowhere.

But he had to admit that after listening to these words, the thought of dying that he had built up with great difficulty faded in his heart.

"What a fucking bastard." Zhao Lei sighed, "Seeing that it won't last for a few days, Lao Tzu doesn't want to die now as you say." ”

Shen Zhong's momentum changed suddenly, even if he couldn't train these days, he was still the prince's army who walked out of the camp on the outskirts of Chengdu!

"You also have a sentence that is right." Shen Zhong said coldly, "Then what kind of thing is Lu Xun, how can he stop the power of the prince's army." Let's go, get to work. ”

Zhao Lei rolled over and got up, and suddenly said, "If you can survive this time, can you lend me this Xuan Armor to wear it for a few days?" ”

Once the desire to survive sprouts, it grows like a weed.

Some will surrender because of this, but others will resist more stubbornly to the death.

Shen Zhong replied without a trace of hesitation: "Don't think about it, there is no door." ”

"Day! You're not fucking brotherly enough! ”

"It's okay to borrow money, but there's no way to borrow armor."

……

In the position of the Wu army outside the city, Zhu Ran in the rear camp was pacing back and forth, and the inexplicable irritability in his heart made him restless.

The battle of Jingzhou did not go according to his expectations from the beginning, and this half of the Jiangling remnant city was unexpectedly a hard bone.

But the defenders in the city should not be able to hold out for too long, at most three or five days, Gangneung will be captured!

However, after Lu Xun went to Yiling, there was no news at all, and this incident made him more and more uneasy.

Last time, I proposed to the lord to divide the troops, but I didn't have any plans to go to support.

It's just that the lord has high hopes for this battle, and he can't say something blatantly about it, so he deliberately made excuses.

Zhu Ran, who grew up with Sun Quan since childhood, knew that after the defeat in Hefei, the lord needed a victory to regain his self-confidence.

The battle of Jingzhou, nothing can be lost!

"Report ——!"

Just as he was thinking about it, the herald suddenly entered the account.

"General, the West has detected a large army coming in the direction of Gangneung! The vanguard troops are less than 20 miles away from our army! ”

Zhu Ran immediately chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Have you ever seen whose people it is?" ”

"It's the Shu army!"

Zhu Ran's face was immediately gloomy, and he was about to drip, so he cleaned up his mood and asked again: "How many people are there in the Shu army?" ”

"Back to the general, the Shu army came by land and water, the warships on the Yangtze River were like dragons one after another, and the land vanguard cavalry was about 1,000 people, and the army was only afraid of ...... I'm just afraid ......"

"Say it!!" Zhu Ran couldn't hold back anymore, and grabbed his clothes and roared angrily.

"I'm afraid it's more than 50,000!"

Poof.

Zhu Ran felt as if his bones had been sucked away, and he sat on the ground gloomily, his eyes blank.

He only muttered in a low voice, "It's over...... It's all over ......."
