Chapter 226 The Battle of Shu County
dong dong dong...

The sound of war drums spread from the city walls.

Five hundred Shu County defenders with weapons in their hands stood ready.

The smell of blood rushed to the nostrils, and more than a thousand bandits rushed over like a tide.

"Report, the North Gate is urgent"

"Report, Simon is in a hurry"

"Report, the East Gate is urgent"

A soldier from Shu County ran quickly on the city wall, followed by a series of battle reports.

The man standing on the tower of the North Gate is dressed in armor and dressed as a general.

Frowning tightly, his face was full of majesty: "Bold Chen Ce dared to attack the counties while the main force of Lujiang soldiers and horses rushed to help Runan"

"Soldiers, who dares to take off this thief's head for this general?" the general asked loudly.

Several men took a step up and puffed up their chests: "I would like to go out of the city for the general and destroy this thief."

"No way, our army is only five hundred, while Chen Ce's troops are no less than a thousand. If we rush out of the city, I'm afraid the consequences will be unimaginable," one person said.

The general's anger subsided a little bit, and his sanity gradually returned.

"Report..."

A soldier ran quickly and bowed to the general: "The prefect sent an urgent report from Runan."

Everyone looked at the silk book in the soldier's hand at the same time.

The general quickly took the silk book in his hands, and opened it immediately.

A few lines of handwriting appeared in front of my eyes, my eyes wandered quickly, and my heart sank.

"General" someone couldn't help shouting.

The general gritted his teeth fiercely, and said the news on the silk script: "The prefect has an order, let me stick to it"

"Nowadays when Gepo is on fire, it is no longer feasible for the main force to return to aid, so we can only stay in the city and wait for reinforcements," the general said.

Everyone's hearts sank following the general's voice.

"The main force in Lujiang can't come back for reinforcements, where are our reinforcements?" One person couldn't help asking loudly.

This remark resonated with everyone, and the voice gradually rang in the ears.

"In this way, the counties in Lujiang County have become empty cities."

"How can this be good?"

The general looked out of the city, seeing the bandits slowly approaching, his palms were sweating.

"The prefect has something to say, the chief of Chaohu Lake has sent troops to relieve the urgent need of Lujiang River," the general said.

Everyone looked at each other, and one of them couldn't help laughing.

The laughter was full of sarcasm: "Chief Chaohu? The prefect is talking about that young master Jia?"

"Now that Chaohu Lake has been preliminarily established, how will they send troops in a short period of time? At first, Changhe Town had only a few hundred troops. Although it annexed Chaohu water thieves, there were countless hidden dangers. May I ask everyone, how will they send troops?" the man asked.

A sigh came, and one person said: "As far as I know, the water bandits entrenched in Ruxukou are attacking Changhe Town. It's lucky that they don't ask for help at this time. Where can I find the spare power to send troops to help?"

"Lonely City, Lonely City!" The others sighed at the same time.

There was also a trace of desolation in the general's heart, could it be that the prefect has given up on the Lujiang County Mansion? .

dong dong dong...

The sound of the drums became louder.

A phalanx of water thieves walked out of the army formation, and then saw that the phalanx gave way to a road.

Dozens of warriors pushed three simple siege vehicles forward slowly with heavy steps.

Water thieves holding shields stood beside those wrestlers to protect them.

"Attack, Siege Vehicle"

A voice came from the city wall, and a soldier from Shu County with a bow and arrow looked like he was facing an enemy.

The general standing on the tower sank his heart. Where did these bandits get the siege engine? .

Judging from the direction of these bandits, could it be...

If Wanxian and Wanxian were attacked by thieves, wouldn't all the siege equipment fall into their hands?

"Quick, destroy the siege engine, don't let it hit the city gate"

"Where are the cavalry, leave the city immediately..."

"promise"

Hundreds of soldiers from Shu County on horseback roared in unison.

The north gate opened wide, and all the Shu County cavalry slapped their horses at the same time, roaring forward.

"shield"

There was a roar of violence from among the bandits, and all the shield soldiers guarding the siege vehicle stepped forward at the same time.

Layers of shields blocked the front. Since they were not special arms, they could not form a shield formation.

Even so, these shields across the front can also block the impact of those cavalry.

boom……

With a loud noise, the horse hit the shield, and more than a dozen shield soldiers fell to the ground and died.

Then the war horse neighed and fell to the ground.

Those soldiers with large shields took the opportunity to throw their shields to the ground, drew out their sabers at their waists, and killed the Shu county cavalrymen.

The bandits around reacted at the same time, clenched their weapons and swarmed towards the place where the cavalry fell.

The sound of swords and soldiers sounded, and a hundred cavalrymen from Shu County drew out their weapons and fought those bandits to the death.

The siege engine took the opportunity to avoid the Shu county cavalry, and approached the city gate under the escort of the bandits.

"Arrow"

The sound exploded in the city tower and spread around.

shhhhhh...

The sky suddenly darkened, and a Shuxian crossbowman standing on the city wall pointed his arrow in the direction of the siege vehicle.

The dense rain of arrows flew from the sky, but compared to the thousands of bandits, it was still a bit rare.

A series of damage values ​​emerged. Except for the dozen or so bandits who rushed to the front and died, the rest of the bandits only showed wounds of different sizes.

Chen Ce, who was standing behind the army, had a smile on his lips, and when the siege engine was about to hit the city gate, the pride in his heart also rose.

boom……

With a loud noise, the siege vehicle slammed into the city gate fiercely under the push of all the warriors.

The blood bar on the city gate burst out a huge damage value, and the blood volume dropped at an incredible speed.

"Hold the gates"

More than a hundred soldiers from Shu County were divided into three and rushed towards the three city gates.With their flesh and blood, they stood firmly behind those city gates, trying to block the pace of the siege vehicles.

boom……

There was another loud bang, and the city gate shook.

Cracks appeared above and spread around.

The soldiers of Zhongshu County who stood behind the city gate couldn't help feeling tense, and the feeling of imminent disaster emerged.

bang bang bang...

There was a series of noises on the city wall, followed by a mountain roar and a tsunami-like sound.

"kill"

The roar sounded from the south gate, and a ladder appeared outside the city wall.

I don't know when Chen Ce actually appeared here, leading hundreds of bandits to climb up the defenseless southern section of the city wall.

Dense and heavy footsteps sounded, and hundreds of water thieves followed the city wall to kill in two directions, east and west.

"Report..."

"The bandits have come from the southern part of the city wall by using the ladder"

The bad news sounded from the north gate tower, and the general seemed to be in an ice cave.

Unexpectedly, after all the calculations, he fell into this thief's trick.

"Quick, meet the enemy"

The general roared wildly, pulling his neck, and ran towards the northern part of the city wall with more than a hundred soldiers behind him.

A soldier from Shu County panicked, clenched the weapon in his hand and followed closely behind.

boom……

At this moment, the north gate shattered, and hundreds of bandits entered from the north gate.

A breath of despair enveloped the sky over Shu County, and the sound of panic resounded all over the place in an instant.

The people in the city were in a mess, and the sounds of cursing and mourning were intertwined, like a continuous tide.
