Zhi Xuan

Chapter 207

In less than two days, the gates outside the city of Nandu were all gone.

With the sound of war drums, the Bei'an army rushed into the outer city from three directions, and the soldiers carrying the rolling logs charged forward, heading straight for the second city gate.

The outer city changed hands too quickly, and many materials were too late to be burned. All the logs originally used to defend the city fell into the hands of the Bei'an army.

Under the command of Zhao Hao, Shi Zixuan and Xianbao, the rolling logs were used to break through the city gate. The sound of crashing and crashing was continuous, and the earth and rocks were scattered, which made the clans and soldiers guarding the city terrified.

Arrows rained down from the top of the city, and they shot at close range, causing certain casualties to the Bei'an army.

The soldiers carrying the log fell down, and someone immediately filled their place.

The military order is issued, and today the gate of the second Que city must be broken.

The three subordinates compete with each other for superiority, and each does not give in.Especially Shi Zizhen and Xian Bao's subordinates did not want to be overwhelmed by Zhao Hao's troops, and vowed to be the first to rush into the inner city to win the first victory.

boom!

There was another blunt sound, and under the huge impact force, the front end of the log shattered, and it instantly scattered flowers like a goddess.

The sawdust flew away, and the city gate became crumbling.

The stone blocking the door was shaken, and the soldier Wu kept swallowing to moisten his dry and sore throat due to tension.

boom!

The loud noise came again.

The shattered log was thrown aside, and Zou Wu brought in a new log, and with all his strength, he chiseled towards the city gate with all his might.

The thick wooden door has cracks, and it will collapse after a few more times.

With the crisis approaching, the Chengtou clan roared and ordered: "Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows quickly!"

Compared with the defenders of the outer city, the defenders of the inner city are more elite.Some of them are private soldiers of various families, and their will to fight is obviously stronger.The clans promised great profits, and even made promises to improve their status. The soldiers were encouraged and displayed amazing combat effectiveness, pushing down the Bei'an soldiers who rushed to the top of the city, and forcibly resisted the first wave of attacks.

"Siege ladder!"

The defenders brandished long knives and tried to cut off the siege ladder.It turned out that the top was covered with copper skin, and the blade didn't move at all, leaving at most a dent.

The strong soldiers rushed forward, trying to push down the siege ladder.Helplessly, the claws are too sharp, wedged deep into the city wall, and cannot be disassembled with bare hands.

Bei'an Kingdom's attacks came one after another, like a surging tide.Aiming at the city head and the city gate, the army is attacking both ways, and the defenders are stretched to the left and the right. After a brief outbreak, they gradually become weak.

Boom!

The loud noise was deafening.

A large amount of sawdust splashed in all directions, and the already crumbling city gate finally broke.With a creaking sound, half of the door slammed inward, crushing the stone pusher behind the door and almost injuring several defenders.

Roars continued to be heard from the top of the city, and arrows rained down for a while.

However, the gate of the city has been broken, and arrows alone can't stop the generals who are like wolves and tigers.

Zhao Hao's subordinates were the first to break the door, and the soldiers quickly removed the obstacles. The soldiers lined up in the charge, and embedded a round shield on the arm armor.With the fastening of the card slot, the shield wall is formed, which can withstand the arrows from the top of the head.

The city gate was broken, and the attacking army swarmed in.The fighting spirit of the defenders at the top of the city dissipated. After the clan died in battle, the private soldiers of each family could still resist for a while, and the rest all abandoned their arms and surrendered, with no intention of continuing to fight.

Zhao Hao's troops all took the first place in the two consecutive fortifications.

Shi Ziyu and Xianbao saw it with envy.The two subordinates were unwilling, but they could not deny the combat effectiveness of their comrades. Compared with their own battle situation, they could only be convinced in the end.

The defenders retreated steadily, except for the captives, all retreated into the third city wall, which was also the last barrier of Nandu City.

The battle lasted until evening, and the attacking army was still fighting high, climbing up the siege ladder again and again, trying to take down the last layer of the city wall.

One ebbs and another, the fighting spirit of the defenders continues to weaken, and they become depressed from top to bottom, and the possibility of defending is getting lower and lower.The clan promised various benefits, and even assembled private soldiers from various families to boost morale for a short time, barely resisting another wave of attacks.

The sun sinks into the horizon, daylight fades away.

The sky was dark, and a large number of torches were lit on the top of the city.

Under the light of the fire, the defenders were ready for the night battle, and the army of the Bei'an Kingdom suddenly retreated.

The military orders are like mountains, even if they can still fight, the soldiers must obey the orders, glance at the top of the city unwillingly, and immediately join the queue, fading like the tide.

The double city wall has been taken down, and all the city gates are broken.The army is bound to win the inner city, but it is only a matter of time.

In the night, the outer city was in a mess, and the bodies of the two warring parties were lying on the ground.

After the Bei'an army withdrew, the hanging basket was lowered from the top of the city, and a member of the Nanyou clan left the inner city and went to the Bei'an army camp alone.

His reason for coming was very simple, he hoped to send someone to restrain the soldiers who died in battle.

According to the rules of the national war, when collecting the corpses, the warring parties are not allowed to launch an attack, let alone a sneak attack, otherwise the victory will be unarmed and the world will laugh at it.

"can."

Shi Ziyu agreed to the other party's proposal.

After getting the desired answer, the Nanyou clan did not stay long, turned around and left the Bei'an army camp, and returned to the inner city in a hanging basket.

After a while, the closed city gate opened, and the soldiers with their armor removed came out in a file. The commander lifted up the comrades who died in battle and transported them back to the city as quickly as possible.

During the whole process, the Bei'an army stood quietly and watched silently.From top to bottom, they didn't say a word, nor did they make any offensive moves.

In several consecutive battles, the defenders suffered heavy casualties, and the Nanyou clan also died in double digits, including three senior doctors, which shows that the battle was brutal.

The defenders were busy all night, and when the city gate was closed, the sky was already pale.

The torches were extinguished and the sky brightened.

The early morning wind blew by, but it was not refreshing at all, but it was full of burnt and bloody smell.

The horn sounded again, and the drums sounded.

The Bei'an army had a full meal and marched out of the camp amidst the sound of drums and horns.

Unlike the previous few days, this time the army did not immediately attack the city, but surrounded Shi Zixuan, Zhao Hao and Xianbao to board the outer city, facing the inner city far away.

The historian followed closely, keeping the bamboo slips, knives and pens in hand, and recorded every moment earnestly.

The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, but the historian has a special status and is protected by elite soldiers, so he can come and go freely and safely in the most intense battles.What's more, Yan Lu's skill is not bad, and it is no problem to fight against two or three elites.If you anger him, you can charge when you get on a horse, and swing a knife when you get off a horse, which is more than enough to command a big battle.

The three of Zhao Hao climbed to the top of the city, and each put on a full guard of honor.

Seeing this, the Nanyou clan immediately guessed their purpose, and hastily sent someone to invite Nanyouhou.If the king refuses to come, the fight will come.

At the beginning of the war, the monarch should have boosted the morale of the three armies.

A stone rain disrupted the plan. I don't know if he was really frightened or used it as an excuse. Nan Youhou retreated back to the monarch's mansion. The clans urged him repeatedly and refused to show up. It was useless to persuade anyone.

The battle was fierce before, and the outer city was lost too quickly. The clans were busy mobilizing their troops, and temporarily left Nanyouhou behind.

The situation is different now, with the guard of honor on the opposite side, it is obvious that there is something to say.Whether it is persuading surrender or not, no matter whether it succeeds or not, it is always good to let the whole city take a breather.

Shi Zixuan and Zhao Hao were at the top of the city, and the officials could not do it for them, Nan Youhou had to come forward.

The gate of the Monarch's Mansion was forcibly opened, and Nan Youhou was invited out of the bedroom.No one asked his opinion, the servant was ordered to change his clothes, and then he was escorted by Doctor Qing, and they went to the top of the city together.

Faced with the tough attitude of the officials, Nan Youhou changed his previous temper, did not refuse to quarrel, and became very cooperative.

The clans feel strange, but they don't care much about it now, and it is naturally best for the monarch to cooperate.Everyone didn't have time to think about it, they hurriedly boarded the chariot, urging the driver to speed up.

The chariot passed through the city at high speed, and the traces of the fire could be seen everywhere, as well as the ruined walls that had been smashed down.

Nan Youhou was sitting in the car, his expression was not flustered, even if he was chased and scolded by the people of the country, his expression did not change.This calm appearance is very different from usual, and it is unavoidable to be eye-catching.

When the chariot arrived at its destination, Nan Youhou took the initiative to get off the chariot without the urging of Doctor Qing, and stepped onto the city wall.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw him, they didn't show any awe, they counted one by one, and their expressions were full of hatred.

If Nanyouhou hadn't acted recklessly, how could he have angered Bei'an and caused this military disaster!

In handling the relationship between the two countries, the clan is also responsible, but the cause of the incident lies in Nanyouhou.If it weren't for him, there might not be this national war.Without the national war, Nanyou would not lose its land, its comrades would not die in battle, and Nanducheng would not fall into desperation.

"Fun Lord!" The soldiers gritted their teeth.If it weren't for the military order itself, I'm afraid they would swarm up and tear Nan Youhou into pieces.

Surrounded by the sight of hatred, the source was still his own citizens, Nan Youhou seemed to be touched, and his footsteps paused slightly.

"Your Majesty, speed up the city." A minister reminded, with a threatening tone in his tone.

Nan Youhou looked sideways at him, suddenly smiled coldly, his eyes were gloomy, full of malice that had never been seen before.

Qing was startled suddenly, looking at Nan Youhou passing by, feeling ominous in his heart.His intuition told him that Nan Youhou must be stopped immediately, and he should not be allowed to ascend to the top of the city.But without a good reason, he couldn't do it at all.Forcibly intercepting it will attract unkind eyes and question what he is planning.

In Qing's anxiety, Nan Youhou climbed to the top of the city, with a guard of honor behind him, and looked at Shi Zixuan and Zhao Hao from afar.If Zhi Xuan was present, he would definitely feel that this scene seemed familiar.Not long ago, the same scene happened in the Eastern Capital.

The eldest son Yu and Zhao Hao were born of the Dayu family, and the Dayu family and Nanyouhou had the same mother, and they were uncles and nephews by blood.But at this moment, the two sides are fighting each other, and they are endless enemies.

Shi Zizhen met Nan Youhou.When he was young, he visited Zhongdu City with his father, and met Nan Youhou who was a tribute, and the other party even hugged him.I don't want the years to go by, but this is the situation when the two sides meet again.

Unlike Shi Zizhen, Zhao Hao has never met Nan Youhou, and there is no difference between them and strangers.

Marriage between princes and states is the norm, and marriage and blood are the bond of alliance.Once interests rush in, blood ties will be diluted.Just like brothers Zhao Hao and Nan Youhou, on the battlefield, they are not relatives, but outright enemies.

After a brief silence, Shi Ziyan restrained his emotions, exchanged a glance with Zhao Hao, and was about to order someone to read the call to action.

Unexpectedly, Nanyouhou suddenly rushed forward, pressed his hands on the wall, and said loudly: "When the first king is here, the son of the king will be my eldest sister!"

Nanyouhou was born to Mrs. Zheng, and the only one who could be called "big sister" by him was Dayou, who was married to Bei'anhou, who was the biological mother of Shizi Yu and Gongzi Hao!
