rebirth [rebirth]

The first day of the first lunar month in the second year of Da Chu Yongyan's new calendar is the Spring Festival for the family members.

However, for the common people of Yong'an, this new year was filled with dread. Outside Wuhe's soldiers were searching every house, and when they saw young and strong men, they immediately arrested them, saying that they would join the army to protect Yong'an.

After Chinese New Year, who wants to leave their wives, children, and parents to work for foreign barbarians?Besides, the one attacking the city outside was the crown prince back then. They would rather him come back to ascend the throne again than be bullied by foreigners.

People are like this, no matter how fierce the fight is in the nest, they can't be bullied by outsiders.

So when the Wuhe soldiers were very stubborn and wanted to pull the young and strong man away, there was an eight-foot man who resisted fiercely on the spot. He shouted something like "barbarians, get out of Yong'an" while trying to break free and escape.

The Wuhe soldiers looked at him coldly, and a general who looked like a small captain came on horseback. Without saying a word, he raised his knife and dropped it. The bloody head of the big man fell to the ground, and he rolled away.

The people around screamed in fright, and couldn't bear to watch it any longer.

General Wuhe coldly swept across the rest of the people, pointed at the women, children and children under the eaves with a knife still dripping with blood, and asked in a blunt Chu language, "Do you still dare?"

The oppressed men were silent. These Wuhe barbarians didn't treat Chu people as human beings at all. If they resisted fiercely, the ones who would be hurt might be their wives, children, and children.

It's not that they don't dare, it's that they can't.

For them, the lives of their loved ones are more important.

Seeing that they were honest, General Wuhe smiled contemptuously and ordered the soldiers to arrest them.

Behind them are the sad cries of wives, children, and parents.

After the soldiers disappeared, the rest of the people gradually came back to their senses. Some returned home with a look of despair, while the rest gathered together to help collect the body of the man who was killed.

There is only one person left in his family. He has no relatives and no reason in this Yong'an City. It is impossible to ask him to leave just like that.

The people were concerned about their relative who had been taken away, but silently helped him find a coffin for burial.

After all, the neighbors have a fight.

Outside the Tantai Gate, it was the beginning of another day of war.

After a night's rest, the soldiers regained their energy, and put on their armor one by one, full of energy.

For Chu Jun, they won within three days.

Wuhe's soldiers are getting fewer and fewer, and the Yanwei is slowly being exhausted. As long as they can hold on, they will definitely not be the ones who fail in the end.

During breakfast, Rong Jingxuan also went to visit the soldiers and told them: "Luoping and Guangqing's defenders are also mobilizing, and they will arrive in Yong'an in a few days. If we can last a day, there will be a few more Very hopeful."

Because of his words, the soldiers were all full of confidence, as if victory was at hand.

After lining up, beating drums, and sounding horns, Chu Jun came down in one round, and his momentum has been brought up again.

However, Wuhe's soldiers did not move this time. They lined up and stood in place, silently looking at the enemy on the opposite side.

Just when Rong Jingxuan was about to order a surprise attack, the Wuhe Army suddenly changed its formation, and the soldiers of the front and rear teams switched positions, and a row of commoner men suddenly appeared in front of Wuhe.

These people were of different heights and clothes. They had no armor and no sharp weapons. They just stood in front of Wuhe soldiers one by one like meat shields.

Sun Zhao squinted his eyes to see, and immediately became angry.

Those are obviously unarmed people.

Wu He used the people of Yong'an City as human shields, and placed them neatly in front of them, making it impossible for Chu Jun to attack with long-range weapons.

After seeing all this, Rong Jingxuan's face turned dark immediately.

"mean."

It is indeed too shameless.

Even Xie Mingze couldn't help cursing beside him: "These beasts from the grassland."

Perhaps out of breath, he had never said such a nasty thing in his life.

Rong Jingxuan looked coldly at the Wuhe soldiers on the opposite side who were showing off their might, gritted his teeth and said: "They won't treat the people of Yong'an as human beings, but we will. This point is too accurate."

Xie Mingze took a deep breath and said, "It seems to be the idea of ​​Taoist Tianzhi."

"It's either him or Amur. The two of them wish Chu Ren could die."

The two of them were thinking of countermeasures, when the Wuhe soldier on the opposite side suddenly moved.

I saw that the Yanwei all retreated to the rear, and then the archers pushed the people who were tied up in a row to move forward.

Is this to use people as human shields to attack from a distance?Rong Jingxuan frowned, and told Sun Zhao: "Set up a shield to defend, let the archers attack from a distance, and don't hurt the people."

Sun Zhao took the order and quickly asked the infantry to set up two layers of iron shields.

In the gap between the two layers of iron shields were Chu Jun's bow battalion and firearm battalion. They pushed forward together and soon confronted the Wuhe Army.

Wuhe's archers are no worse than Da Chu's. They hunt all year round, and their skills are not weak.

What's more, there is a meat shield in front of them that can't resist. For the first time, Wuhe soldiers feel that fighting is so carefree and fun. Seeing the enemy's timid look, they feel that they have vented all the grievances of yesterday.

"Eternal life is in the sky, the humble Chu people can't win." Some soldiers said loudly in Wuhe language.

However, the next moment, he was hit by a fire bomb, and bright red blood gushed out from his forehead.

Even if the front is defended with a human wall, Chu Jun's firearms battalion can kill the enemy invisible in the gap.

The soldier next to him became angry all of a sudden, and he couldn't rush out of the formation, so he raised his knife and chopped off an arm of the civilian in front of him.

The commoner was only a young man in his twenties, when he was hit hard suddenly, he screamed in pain and passed out.

This time, not only were the people tied up as human shields startled, but even Rong Jingxuan was so angry that he almost broke the command arrow in his hand.

Xie Mingze looked forward with a cold face, he felt that they must find a way.

The blood of the common people in Da Chu cannot be shed in vain, and Wu He's arrogance must come to an end.

His eyes swept across his formation, and suddenly looked at a tent in the back corner.

It wasn't for the soldiers to live there, but for hiding the most important weapon in their hands - a cannon.

They didn't use artillery before because they didn't simply attack Wuhe. Wuhe's cavalry Yanwei was very good.

Xie Mingze looked over there, and Rong Jingxuan seemed to have a heart, and turned his head together with him.

"How?" Xie Mingze turned to look at him and asked softly.

Rong Jingxuan looked at the tall city gate of Tantai Gate from a distance, and because the Yan Guards retreated, they were not far away from the city wall at this moment.

He was calculating the range of the artillery. Their artillery was a tiger squatting cannon with a range of up to thirty feet. It was the most powerful firearm that Da Chu could make in his last years.

A tiger crouching cannon is very expensive, and Rong Jingxuan only has two in his hand.Originally, there were still ten Dachu treasuries, but they were all destroyed later.

Since there are thirty feet, as long as the cannon is pushed in front of Chu Jun's formation, a cannonball can reach the root of the city wall. No matter what happens to the city wall, the Yanwei in front will not be able to resist it.

Rong Jingxuan watched the opponent approaching steadily, and quickly recruited his own soldiers to order: "Order General Sun to use artillery to attack the local defenses, regardless of the damage to the city wall, so as to protect the lives of the people and our soldiers."

The soldiers quickly passed the order, and Sun Zhao took the order to directly let the infantry on the side of the artillery also form a shield formation, blocking the sight of the enemy on the ground.As for those on the city wall, it depends on the speed at which they spread the word.

Xie Mingze called another soldier and asked him to quickly send a message to Lu Jiming and Dai Xian, who were attacking the city at Jiuhemen, telling them to use artillery. Don't care if the city wall is damaged, as long as the lives of the people are saved, the city wall can be rebuilt .

After this series of orders were conveyed, the artillery had already moved to the corresponding position. Sun Zhao was very quick this time. He directly ordered to ignite the line of fire, and then withdrew the shield soldiers in front of him.

The moment the shield soldiers moved away, only the sentinel on the city wall shouted: "Cannon, cannon, get out of the way."

Wu Shu was startled, and when he looked up, he saw that Chu Jun was putting a cannon in the corner, and the black muzzle was aimed at them accurately.He was about to order the soldiers to dodge quickly, but before he could say anything, the dazzling shells shot directly into the air, directly attacking the Wuhe army's rear defense.

There was a "bang", the flames shot up into the sky, the dust spread, and the tall city walls trembled along with it.

At the base of the city wall, the soldiers fell into a sea of ​​fire and blood. They clutched their wounds and howled continuously.

Wu Shu shook his head vigorously to wake himself up, and then quickly shouted: "Quickly evacuate forward, quickly evacuate forward."

But the explosion just now was too terrifying, and many soldiers were still dizzy, and there was no time to listen carefully to what the general said.

Taking a quick look, at least two thousand Yanwei behind were hit by fire bombs, causing countless casualties.

Wu Shu was furious, he grabbed the soldiers and ordered: "Let the ones in front kill the captives, kill the captives."

The little soldier quickly ran to give the order, but before he could get close to his own team, suddenly a group of light armored soldiers jumped up from behind Da Chu's shield formation, and directly fell into the Wuhe army's camp holding a big knife.

Wu Hejun was stunned by the shocking cannon just now, and didn't react immediately.

They were caught by Chu Jun in an instant, and the fifty light armored soldiers who jumped into the camp were Chu Jun's most elite vanguard infantry, with outstanding melee combat capabilities. When they fell into the formation, they raised their swords and killed without hesitation.

The shield soldiers took advantage of this panic, dismantled the shield array at once, and quickly approached the people to cut off the ropes.

Wuhe's advantage of only an hour ahead was completely broken.

However, the matter was far from stopping here. Before Wu Shu could issue a new order, the second shell of the artillery followed closely behind.

The artillery is so powerful that the ground shakes when it explodes. In Yong'an City, in Changxin Palace, Amur and Hu Ya are discussing countermeasures.

Suddenly, the confession map hanging on the wall shook, bringing up fine dust.

Hu Ya frowned and glanced at it, then lowered his head to look at Kanyu Tu again: "Your Majesty... Wu Shu can't hold on."

Amur was very irritable, and scolded directly after hearing this: "It's not the end yet, how do you know you can't hold it? Could it be that you really like that useless old man, and it's fun to be fucked by him for so many years?"

Hu Ya's complexion changed, and he said sharply, "Amur, don't mess with me."

Amur's face turned red, and he finally suppressed the more disrespectful words.

Although he is the patriarch of Wuhe, Hu Ya is a great witch, and he can directly listen to the holy voice of Changshengtian.In many cases, although his power is not as good as that of the patriarch, the patriarch has to respect him.

"Then what do you say?"

Hu Ya frowned tightly: "If it doesn't work... we will... go back to Wuhe!"

Amur's face became more and more ugly. They spent so much effort and prepared to enter Yong'an for more than ten years. How many warriors died along the way?How many tribesmen came to live in this rich land full of hope?

If they go back in despair like this, he will lose face as the patriarch again.

"Are you willing? You know better than any of us how you got here in the past ten years."

Huya fell silent.

He thought of the humiliation and distress of these years, and that boundless hatred came back again. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will catch him later and throw him on the city wall to show his son."

"Rong Jingxuan wants to be emperor, but he dare not kill his father."

When they were discussing how to deal with Rong Jingxuan, the army of the brave army had already arrived at the gate of Zhanhuamen. They were led by the eldest son-in-law Fu Yanhe and lined up directly in front of Zhanhuamen.

Jin Wu fell slowly, this day's fierce battle was about to end, when the battle between Tantai Gate and Jiuhe Gate gradually calmed down, the drumbeat from the northeast stirred everyone's hearts again.

Rong Jingxuan and Xie Mingze looked at each other with joy on their faces: "The brave army has arrived."

Fifteen thousand brave soldiers arrived, but Zhanhua Gate was defended by only five hundred soldiers.

The first day of the first lunar month in the first year of the new calendar for Da Chu Yongyan became Wu He's most difficult day.
