The sky began to turn white, and the Kaiping Gate in Youzhou City was already covered by thick fireworks, and the gray-white wall tiles were smoked into black pieces.

The first vanguard led by Suo Chao has repelled four waves of enemy forces that have come to capture the enemy with the terrain and city defense. However, the steps and corners everywhere have been filled with corpses, soaked in the flowing blood that they cannot step down.

Although most of them were left by the Pinglu soldiers who did not want to touch them, they were occasionally mixed with the brave soldiers who died in battle. After all, their number was a small number of casualties, not to mention the drastic energy and ammunition consumed.

Fortunately, the supporters still forced into the city gate that barely opened half of the city gate before they wiped all their medicine and started melee combat.

The first one to rush out from the door were the most elite and capable old grenades. As soon as they appeared, they spread out to the walls on both sides, and raised the explosive bombs and sulphurs in their hands, almost like flowing water, without any slogans or coordination. Under some natural tacit understanding and judging situation, they threw them one after another; and like evenly falling raindrops, they fell among the Pinglu soldiers who were rushing to climb up the city ladder.

The fire balls and smoke that exploded violently in an instant suddenly exploded the enemy who had just divided the troops and were defeated in front of them. They almost immediately threw away the grenades carrying them in one breath, and then the old grenade soldiers who were leaning against the city wall pulled out the bead guns filled with ammunition again, and divided them into two rows of standing up and down, and radiated and killed them one by one against the remaining enemies who were still standing and even standing stubbornly.

When they faced the flying arrows covered by the Pinglu Army without retreating or avoiding them, and alternately emptied the third pre-installed round wheel, the old grenades that kept rushing out of the door hole also became two rows of machine guns installed on skinned cars; as they slowly moved on one side, the dull "step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-step-

In an instant, the enemy who rushed in front was almost torn and shattered in rows, and then the second and third rows that followed were not reduced, and more bodies were knocked over and knocked to the ground. When the long plate of medicine was emptied, blood was splattering around the ground and walls were covered with the ground. In addition to the lodging corpses, the vast road connecting the inner and outer walls was cleared out without standing up to the enemy.

And the many enemies still gathered under the Neiwang City seemed to have their souls and spirits taken away in an instant, and they actually showed some instinctive stagnation and a confused and hesitant expression, and were stunned for several breaths. Then, with the sound of a mechanical cavity rotating inertia, they screamed in an uproar and fled back and fled in groups.

So much so that the grenadiers and gunmen who had already installed new platoons outside the gate of the outer wall city and continued to be on high alert, faced with the enemy who had not yet been away for a long time, they suddenly became coveted and became unconscious.

Until this moment, Suo Chao, who had witnessed all this from a high place in the city, also let out his last breath of perseverance, and collapsed on the ground with all his strength. Is this the only thing he could do to seize and guard the city gate? And he was so tired and sleepy that after he relaxed, his whole body was almost omnipresent and tired. Even the smile that had become sincere after winning became extremely bleak because of the wounds on the sideburns.

But this was the first achievement to win the gate first. It actually fell on him, a new marching general who was able to join Huaizhen at the end of the second Northern Expedition. The qualifications and contributions were not considered very outstanding, which was undoubtedly quite enviable and jealous. This also means that in Huaizhen, it should not be called the Grand Governor's Office now, and it is better opportunities and prospects within this emerging system, and even a further starting point and beginning.

Therefore, while sad for his companions, he couldn't help but expect to wait.

In the Yacheng, the governor of Youzhou and the governor of Pinglu, Han Zhongyan was also looking at the fireworks and the faint sound of fighting in the vast city walls, which may represent a wall that is about to fall under the attack of the Huai army.

"It has been confirmed in front of the army that the open door has been lost..."

"I suspect that the enemy climbed up to the city gate at night and attacked the rest of the defenders at the gate."

"Although there are reserves who rushed to the first part of the Rigma Army and Huanchengwei, and there are also consecutive attacks from Shanyi Camp."

"Around 1,000 soldiers were lost... but they still failed to take them back."

"Old Deng Jingluo and Zeng Tongzheng were in the firearms, but unfortunately they disappeared one after another, and Deputy Liu retreated because of serious injuries."

"Now, most of the Huai Army is pouring in along the open-top gate."

"I'm afraid it's hard to save the nearby Yuzhenfang and Kaiyuan..."

For Han Zhongyan, everything happened too quickly, and even made him feel a little confused. Could it be that this kind of siege of the city called Dayi should not have been a long-lasting month or half a year, or even a few years or more years?

I used this huge Jicheng as a chessboard and made strategic layout and careful planning; then on the third day, I refused to defend under the enemy's siege, and had been wiped out all the obstacles of the periphery by the besieged enemy, and then broke through the defense of the outer city and easily destroyed his overall layout?

This made him feel frustrated and anxious. Is it actually a mistake to not give up the status and righteousness represented by Youzhou City in time, and retreat north of Wangyan Mountain with most of his strength, and plan to stay and fight a protracted defense battle on the spot.

However, he quickly became firmer. Although he had lost a lot of mistakes and lost the benefits of the outer city defense, he still had the trump card of most of the Youzhou City District;

After all, according to the facts he knew, no matter how good the Huai Army was, there were only tens of thousands of people. The war was covered in the wild and unstoppable, but once you entered the Youzhou City, which was said to be able to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, you may not be able to do it well;

At least in the extremely familiar geography and people who guard the countryside, he still has enough confidence and confidence to rely on this vast and complex city and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians from it, and continue to deal with it for a long time until a new turning point and change arrives, or to the season when the other party cannot persevere and has to give up and withdraw.

What's more, he had several preparation cards and had not had time to use them, and was forced to the street fighting in the city by the Huai army. He was extremely unwilling and reluctant, and then he left the stage of the world's victory.

However, in addition to the large amount of time required for these plans, there is another very important premise, which is to implement a more severe and decisive method of wartime rights and interests, and further eliminate internal noise and dissidents, so as not to start to advocate the shaking and surrenderist sentiment in the unfavorable situation, and become a potential help from the enemy.

Thinking of this, he called one of his sluts and whispered

"Sixth, I'll give you one of you...

"Pick some reliable and reliable people and wait for the retreat and transfer routes of military and civilians in the outer city."
