The dense wooden shield blocked the front, but there was still a gap in the dense arrow feather. The sharp arrow roared through the gap and hit the soldier’s thigh and abdomen. The bellow suddenly rang.

However, the lethality of the wooden shield defensive arrow feather was weakened. After a round of arrow feather, more than 100 people were injured in Wu Jun. Most of them were slightly injured. Some tough soldiers gritted their teeth and pulled the arrow feather to a piece of cloth to wrap the wound and move on.
Chen Guoren, the defender of Huiji City, once again ordered the soldiers to hurry forward. Don’t delay. When the soldiers were ordered to keep the formation forward, they walked more than ten steps. The second round of arrow feathers came again without waiting for Chen Guoren to command Wu Jun to automatically raise the shield to block the front.
"Take it away!" Sharp arrows hit the wooden shield, and the wooden shield was pierced. The sharp arrow cluster stabbed the back of the soldier’s hand, but the soldiers didn’t care that this minor injury was nothing. The second round of arrow feather Wu Jun lost even more.
This is mainly because someone was injured, which made the formation have a gap. As the distance got closer, the arrow feather was stronger and the lethality was stronger. Every step Wu Jun took was under great pressure. When Wu Jun was a hundred paces away from Huiji City, Guang Shen decisively chose another shooting method.
He quickly made arrangements to wait in the back row for the crossbowman to wait for his order.
At this time, Li Tongzheng’s command table was lit up, and then he was getting closer and closer to Huiji City, and the hope of breaking the city was getting bigger and bigger. He had calculated that the pioneer of Chen Guoren was less than a hundred steps away from Huiji City!
At this moment, his eyes suddenly widened and he looked incredible.
Just now, the defenders of Huiji actually fired two batches of arrow feathers in a row. The first shooting just stopped. Wu Junzheng was preparing to move, especially the shield had already revealed a large flaw. Just at this time, the dense arrow feathers struck again and took away the lives of soldiers.
Screams come and go. Wu Jun is like the autumn harvest of rice. Blood has been poured on the ground and the formation integrity has been greatly destroyed.
"The soldiers in the front row picked up the shield and continued to move forward!" Chen Guoren said loudly
The archer on the siege side can’t shoot back as far as the guarding city side. They need a shorter distance. They need to hear Chen Guoren tell Wu Jun archers to bow their bows and arrows to fight back. However, at this time, the third wave of arrows of the defenders will be shot away!
"Take it away!" Some soldiers who responded quickly raised their wooden shields in their hands and saved their lives, but more soldiers didn’t react and were taken away by sharp arrows.
"Fight back!" Chen Guoren and Li He commanded the Wu Jun crossbowman to fight back a star, and then it became neat and dense. Wu Jun fought back and had an effect. They continued to maintain the formation and fought back while moving.
Guang Shen Chengtou looked at him and knew it would be like this, but he did his best. He directed the crossbowman to shoot and looked to the west. When he looked at the west, he was so hopeful as if there were thousands of troops coming back to help him.
Finally constantly shooting and being shot, Wu Jun is gradually approaching Huiji City, and the new battle between the two sides is about to start!
Chapter 616 Amazing news
Li Tong’s podium stared at the front. Although hundreds of casualties were paid, Wu Jun was still close to Huiji City. Wu Jun crossed the moat and paid more casualties. However, the ladder also built the wall. Wu Jun’s momentum was greatly boosted. Arrows and feathers of the defenders of Huiji City put more ladders on the wall, holding shields in front of the soldiers and struggling to climb the wall.
At this time, due to the hand-to-hand combat between the two sides, Chen Guoren immediately stopped the shooting of the crossbowman, and Guang Shen asked the crossbowman to take a step back and stop the Wu Jun stone and wood from falling and hitting Wu Jun.
The shield was smashed obliquely, and then the stone smashed the head of the Wu Jun soldier, and the red and white mixed out. The soldier fell to the ground and would never move again. His robes stepped over him and rushed toward Chengtou.
Chen Guoren personally led the troops to kill the new master and won a higher title. He was already desperate. Chen Guoren took a sharp knife in his mouth and climbed two huge stones to hit Chen Guoren. He was very flexible and then continued to climb. Chen Guoren led Wu Jun to climb more bravely.
The defenders smashed the stone one after another, and Chen Guoren hid for a few times. Finally, he was able to avoid it. He slipped loose from the ladder and escaped the danger of being stoned. Chen Guoren gritted his teeth and continued to climb.
Li Tong looked at Chen Guoren’s bravery and nodded slightly. There were still some points in this fall. He commanded the flag bearer to "drum louder!"
The standard-bearer got the order quickly. The drummer bulged his mouth, his arms moved quickly, and the drumstick beat the drum as if to break it. The drum shook the sky and went to a farther place. Wu Jun soldiers encouraged Han to climb to the top of the city without fear of death.
Blood flying has lost the breath of life, and the body rolled into a robe. A thick layer of body soon accumulated in the stepping stone wall and moat. At this time, Guang Shen’s steamed bread man commanded Guang Shen to rely on experience to command a fierce battle between the defenders. The defenders missed Wu Jun to block the wall with the advantage of the wall.
Shen Faxing was very nervous when he watched all this. He looked to the south from time to time and planned to retreat from the south gate when things went bad. Fortunately, Guang Shen had become the backbone of the garrison at this time, and no one noticed Shen Faxing’s strange expression.
After Wu Jun attacked for two hours, it was nearly noon. Li Tong asked the soldiers to take turns to eat and continue to attack. Li Tong planned to be very simple, that is, to create an imposing manner for Shen Faxing to abandon the city and flee. At this time, both sides are more than just courage, wisdom and endurance in their hearts.
While fighting in Guang Shen, I found Shen Faxing and appraised his belief again. Shen Faxing thought for a long time and finally made up his mind. He brought out the most elite troops around him and told them to stand by at any time.
After noon, after dinner, the momentum of Wu Jun became stronger. The two sides gathered in Chengtou to compete for Chen Guoren, who once boarded Chengtou, but was driven out by Shen Guang with his soldiers and continued to maintain a certain advantage.
Chen Guoren’s performance delighted Li Tong to see Chen Guoren’s withdrawal from Chengtou, and Li Tong could not help sighing. At the same time, Li Tong was also very interested in the garrison generals. If it had been a few months ago, Shen Jiajun would have collapsed, and the roots could not have been so tenacious.
Mao Wenshen watched the battle and said, "Many generals died in General Chen’s department. I suggested adding three thousand soldiers to continue the offensive and put pressure on Shen Faxing."
Li Tong nodded slightly, and he also thought about this problem. He believed that Shen Faxing, not he, must have been unable to hold up the battle in the end. When Li Tong thought of this, he immediately made an additional 3,000 soldiers to help Wu Jun get the new force’s offensive more and more fierce.
Shen Faxing frowned and was very nervous. He had never felt his heart beating so fast. Even when Shen Lun died, he was not so nervous. Maybe it was more sadness at that time.
This World War I not only determines his fate, but also the fate of Shenyang in Xing Wu. For Shen Faxing, it is only possible to continue to live if he holds the city. If he fails, he will die. How can he not be nervous?
Fierce fighting continues. The thick smell of blood around the city wall keeps pounding the nostrils, making people want to vomit. In the suffocating breath, Shen Faxing has received new information. The offensive at the East Gate and the West Gate of Wu Jun has become more and more fierce. This means that Li Tong is really surrounded by three vacancies and one south, and there must be an ambush waiting for him. A tingle can’t help but secretly rejoice that Shen Guangying looked at Guang Shen Chengtou and fought hard with soldiers. Shen Faxing sighed a sigh. If it weren’t for this ethnic group, I’m afraid he would have been captured and beheaded.
One attack and one defense, both sides are paying attention to the war situation, making appropriate adjustments, changing the main attack direction and strength, trying to find out the flaw of the other side. The sun is gradually setting west, and Mao Wenshen locks his brow. It is impossible to break Huiji City today.
Li Tong looked up at the setting sun and was about to ask Mao Wenshen. At this moment, there was a fast horse sprinting from the rear. The fast horse rider kept whipping and whipping his horse, and the sunset was clearly visible.
The war horse has exhausted its physical strength, and it is possible to fall at any time. However, seeing the knight who is about to arrive at the destination, he mustered up his strength and desperately squeezed the horse’s physical strength. After running for 200 steps, it is getting closer and closer to the rear army of Li Tong.
"grey law!" The steed suddenly let out a moan, and his front hoof slipped down. The knight reacted quickly. When the steed fell to the ground, his legs kicked out of the stirrup, and then he rushed to roll on the spot. By the time he got up, the steed had been lying panting and twitching as if he would die at any moment.
The knight sighed. He knew that the horse was not getting up, but the distance was not far. He should be able to pass the news. He ran two steps before a Wu Jun scout shouted, "Who?"
As soon as the knight’s eyes lit up, he took out a gold medal and shouted, "I am the messenger of Jiangdu!" " Said the big step before a pull scouts that young scouts have no reaction to come over, was dragged by the knight to knight a turn riding a horse and ran to the hand holding a gold medal all the way to drink the scouts stunned looking away knight scratched his head for half a day without reaction to come over?
Knight running all the way finally caught Wu Jun’s attention, and at this time Li Tong had finished talking. Mao Wenshen nodded slightly and approved the crazy attack for a while. After all, it will take another hour for the sunset to set. The last hour may decide the life and death of Huiji City.
No sooner had Li Tong added soldiers to the Cavaliers than Le Botong led them. The Cavaliers ran two steps, jumped on their horses and walked to the podium. They knelt down and said, "Wang Jian, a humble official, has seen the position!"
"Wang Jian? Are you the Ministry of Human Resources? " Li Tong didn’t respond at the moment.
"I report that my humble position is the right general Wang Wenfei’s department. He is my humble uncle!" Wang Jian said
On hearing that it was Li Tong of Jiangdu Shoujiang Wang Wenfei’s department, he suddenly became one leng. Jiangdu is the geographical location of the capital and it is particularly important. This place is the intersection of the Yangtze River and the canal, and the four accessible places in Jiangbei. He left a confidant Wang Wenfei guarding this time. Did Wang Wenfei send a nephew to Jiangdu to come over?
At the thought of this, Li Tong was shocked and said, "Is there a military situation?"
Wang Jian was asked to take out a wax pill from his chest and pass it to a soldier. The soldier took the pedal and ran to pass it to the counselor Mao Wenshen. Mao Wenshen crushed the wax pill and folded it into a ball of paper. After a quick look, his face changed.
Mao Wenshen was fairly calm. He whispered, "General Wang said in the letter that Sui Jun has gone east. It is reported that this time it was the big Sui day." Mao Wenshen said that he held out his thumb and calculated the date of his knuckles.
Li Tong smell speech one leng, how can it be a big Sui day troo? Is the war in Li Tang over? Li Tong mused that although Sui Jun was killed, there was no need to worry. According to his guess, even if Sui Jun defeated Li Tang, it would take less than half a month to attack Jiangdu. Half a month was enough for him to break through Huiji and unify Jiangdu, and he still had enough time to make arrangements for Li Jiangdu.
But then Mao Wenshen’s words interrupted Li Tong’s thinking. Although Mao Wenshen’s tone was calm, there was a faint panic, which Li Tong had never heard of.
"I’m afraid Sui Jun has arrived in Liyang if I didn’t miscalculate!" Mao Wenshen’s words were like a bolt from the blue. Li Tonglei was speechless. Sui Jun has arrived in Liyang? That’s impossible. I didn’t get the news beforehand. Can Sui Jun travel thousands of miles a day? Otherwise, if you can explain?
He got up and grabbed the letter from Mao Wenshen and looked at it eagerly. Wang Wenfei told him that he had received an urgent report from the prefect of Xuancheng County that tens of thousands of warships in Sui Jun had been found on the north bank of the Yangtze River. The prefect of Xuancheng County hurriedly returned the military intelligence to Jiangdu. Wang Wenfei immediately sent a confidant to tell Li Tong the news after seeing the military newspaper.
Judging from the date of Wang Wenfei’s letter, there is a great chance that Sui Jun will arrive in Liyang County. When he arrives in Liyang, the Sui army can attack Danyang on the south bank of the Yangtze River or continue to attack Jiangdu. It is unacceptable for Li Tong whether Danyang falls or Jiangdu falls.
Chapter 617 Li Tong decided
Li Tong knew very well that the consequences were serious, so he changed his color and set his eyes on Mao Wenshen. Mao Wenshen locked his brow tightly and thought quickly. After a while, Mao Wenshen had the answer.
"The pursuit of Shen Faxing is nothing but a scab. If you want to destroy Shen Faxing, it is just a matter of lifting your hand, but the Sui army is the enemy. I suggest that you immediately return to Jiangdu to deploy defense!" Mao Wenshen said
Li Tong frowned slightly. He took two steps and looked at Huiji City. There were still several killings. Wu Jun was fighting to break Huiji City. Seeing this, Li Tong was reluctant.
"Mao Aiqing, do you think you can take Huiji City back to Jiangdu?" Li Tong could not help but ask a way
Mao Wenshen’s white Li Tong’s mind now occupies an advantage, and most people will loathe to give it up at any time, but Mao Wenshen is very white. Now that Sui Jun has been killed, it is very dangerous. According to the distance, this Junbao arrived in Liyang less, so Jiangdu or Danyang is very dangerous. Li Tong is reluctant, but Mao Wenshen can’t help it.
"Fei Shen Faxing is a sheep, but Yang You is a tiger." Mao Wenshen advised in a low voice, "Now Sui Jun should have arrived in Liyang, Du Fuwei, and he is very familiar with the situation in Jiangdu. If he leads the troops in Sui Tian, I am afraid it is very important to deal with the defensive war in Jiangdu. I hope you can get ready before turning back to Jiangdu quickly!"
