While speaking, Du Zhengyan and a strong general wearing armor and a solemn face walked quickly. He was He Dongping, the general who defended the city in Anqing.

"Mr. Zheng has already ordered two thousand infantry, one thousand cavalry, five hundred crossbowmen, and two hundred musketeers gather in front of the mansion. You can reinforce the city gate at any time. The barbarian army is less than one mile away from the city!"

"What should I do?" Zheng Zongwang's face turned pale, "General He, I'll leave Anqing City Defense to you, you can do it!"

The implication is that the city lord is going to escape, so He Dongping had to bow and say, "Mr. Zheng, the thief army is powerful. Please climb up the city tower and command the battle to increase our army's morale!"

"This is this..." It's okay to ask him to recite poems and make him supervise the battle, and it's too nonsense. Zheng Zongwang was about to refuse, but was interrupted by Zheng Yixue behind him.

"Don't worry, General He, you will lead troops to reinforce the city gate first, and my father will arrive later."

Everyone in the mansion knew that City Lord Zheng was obedient to this only daughter. He Dongping hesitated for a moment and then took Du Zhengyan away quickly.

"My baby daughter, aren't you a scam as your father?"

Zheng Zongwang was so anxious that he almost burst into tears. He asked him to supervise the war, but he could not have the life to come back.

Zheng Yixue said righteously, "Father, this night attack of barbarians is different from the past. At this moment, Beijing is falling, the Ming Dynasty is overthrowing, and the new emperor is just starting, I am afraid that the barbarian army will no longer be as simple as before, and it is very likely that they want to attack the city and rob, and they are trying to restore the country. At this time, Nanjing is undercurrents, civil officials and military generals are fighting for power and power, and the general Huang Degong of the General of Luzhou is even more incompatible with the Minister of Rites Shi Kefa! The Luzhou army is afraid that it will not take care of Anqing. If you abandon the city, the soldiers and civilians of Anqing will definitely commit poison, and you will become an eternal sinner!"

This view, even Yu Wan couldn't help but secretly exaggerate this view. I really didn't realize that Miss Zheng is not only outstanding in literature, but also has an extraordinary sensitivity to politics, and is also a strange woman.

Seeing that Zheng Zongwang was still hesitating, Yu Wan said, "Miss Zheng is very right. At present, it is too late to escape. If you can't walk far, you will be caught by the barbarian army. My nephew is not talented and is willing to help Lord Zheng defend the city and retreat the enemy!"

Only after Zheng Yixue and Yu Wan took turns to persuade him, the city lord who was determined to escape was calmed, and he decided to climb up the city tower to command the enemy.

Anqing City has high walls and a total of four gates. Yu Wan ordered Feng Dai to guard the north gate, Xu Hu to guard the west gate, Yu Hao to guard the south gate, and he picked up his spear and accompanied Zheng Zongwang to guard the east gate.

As for Ling Xiang who wanted to follow the past, she was stopped by Yu Wan. She couldn't help even if she went there, but instead made her lose sight of each other.

The reason why Yu Wan is so active in helping is actually that he has his own selfish intentions.

Anqing's strategic position is extremely important, and it is the throat of the transportation of Hubei, Zhejiang and Anhui provinces. It has the saying that "the Yangtze River is sealed by this throat" and is a natural barrier for Nanjing. The Yangtze River passes through the city, and both sides are hills. It can be taken from Nanjing in the east and Wuchang in the west. If Yu Wan wants to restore Nanjing in the future, he must conquer Anqing first. Such an important strategic city cannot be given to the barbarians.

When they arrived at the east gate of the city wall, the barbarian army had already rushed over like a tide, and the range of bows and arrows was extremely limited. Although there were three artillery pieces to help, they were still too thin to face thousands of enemy troops.

Under the night, the dark barbarians rushed towards Anqing City with slogans. The bright long sword emitted cold light under the moon's illumination. The rumbling sound of horse hooves was even more powerful. It was like a Buddha stomping the entire earth.

Soon, the barbarian army crossed the moat and came to the bottom of the city wall with a ladder!

Zheng Zongwang was hiding behind the fort and was frightened when he saw this scene. He had only been in office for a few years, and the barbarian army had only come three times. This frequency was higher than that of the previous few. Why is it that hard for me, Master?

After He Dongping asked the crossbowmen to shoot three rounds, he sent the rolling stone hands up. The stones and wooden blocks falling from the sky smashed the barbarians who had climbed up the ladder, but the people behind immediately added up. The archers also shot upwards under the cover of the shield. A large number of defenders were shot to death by thousands of sharp arrows on the spot.

Taking advantage of the suppression of firepower, the barbarian army climbed up rapidly. Within a stick of incense, hundreds of elite troops climbed onto the city wall. Fortunately, the musketeers repaired the defense in time and wiped out all the enemy troops.

Even so, the soldiers guarding the city were frightened by the momentum of the barbarian army and could not even hold the knife, and they all wanted to escape.

The Anqing defenders had mixed quality and their morale was dispersed. If they continued like this, they would probably be defeated in less than a quarter of an hour. As expected, just as Yu Wan was worried, the second wave of attacks of the barbarian army began again. After the musket team killed hundreds of enemies, they also used up all their bullets, but the enemy rushed onto the city wall like a tide!

"If you don't want your family to be broken, you can follow me!"

Seeing that the building was about to collapse, Yu Wan had to dance his spear and strode forward.

"Nephew Yu Xian hid, please hide quickly, don't force yourself to stand up!"

Seeing Yu Wan's tender skin and tender flesh and the weak appearance of a chicken, Zheng Zongwang thought he was trying to be a hero in front of his daughter, so he hurriedly hid behind the fort and shouted loudly.

However, the next scene completely shocked Zheng Zongwang and his daughter.

I saw that the gap that was originally broken was turned into a penalty area because of Yu Wan's guarding. A iron spear made the enemy so amazing. No one dared to approach for a while!

They didn't know that Yu Wan's Chang's marksmanship had reached the small stage of the second phase, and he naturally crushed him at will when dealing with a mere ordinary knife hands.

After several swings, Yu Wan killed all the more than 20 elite barbarian soldiers who surrounded him!

Inspired by this young general, the morale of the soldiers guarding the city also rose sharply and they swung machetes to contact the barbarians. Although the barbarians were strong and fierce, most of them could fight against three, there were about two thousand defenders on the city wall, and only a few hundred barbarians could climb up. Moreover, the gap in the city wall was blocked by their own people, so the people below could not help even if they wanted to get up.

The battle between the two armies soon became fierce. Although Yu Wan killed dozens of enemy troops, he had to lose a lot of energy and gradually lost his strength. He was surrounded by three centurions of the barbarian army, so he had to slash left and right, blocked front and stabbed back, and gradually he could not resist it.

‘These three people have very good martial arts skills and can no longer fall into their encirclement!’

Yu Wan thought to himself, swept the spear in his hand first, then used his left hand as a fulcrum to hold the gun rod in his right hand, and swung it rapidly in the direction and number of times of east, west, five south, four back, eight. The spear head made a whistling sound like a flying phoenix, and moved left, and the trajectory was unpredictable, forcing the three centurions to retreat continuously!

The second style of Chang's shooting technique, the phoenix dances in the Nine Heavens, and it is a perfect success!

Seeing that he had gained the upper hand again, Yu Wan held a gun in one hand, gathering all his strength on his right arm, and then transferred the force to the gun head through his wrist. In a moment, the black iron gun head was shaking, piercing into the chest of the centurion in front like a pear blossom.

Finally, the gun flower was shook out! Yu Wan was overjoyed and took advantage of the shock of the other two centurions and slashed the gun and used the first "Dragon Going to the Sea" to kill the two of them together.

After killing these three centurions, the two sides fought for half an hour before they could retreat.

"The pine oil is coming! Get the fire soon!"

After a riot on the city wall, Du Zhengyan and dozens of subordinates ran over with bags of yellow liquid. Although Yu Wan was a liberal arts student, he was familiar with history books and knew that pine oil was taken from pine trees and was a flammable liquid. In ancient times, it was mostly used for city defense and had a strong killing effect.

While he was thinking, the defenders were already busy pouring pine oil on the barbarian ladder and soldiers. With the throwing of hundreds of torches, the barbarian army was ignited in an instant, making the barbarian soldiers cry and cry and fall, like a ball of sparks that rush into the barbarian army, and soon lit up the others!

Seeing this, the commander of the barbarian army, Shen Mi Tuoning had to suspend the attack, Ming Jin and conquer the army, and retreated three miles to make renovations.
