Chapter 477: More People Are More Powerful
In the general's mansion, Jiang Jiaquan was originally in a relaxed mood. After arguing with Ye Zhen, he thought it was a sure thing to kill the Yan army. , making him stunned for a moment. watermark ad test watermark ad test
There shouldn't be a battle at the North City Gate. Didn't the Yan army besiege three and miss one? Aren't their main forces all in the other three directions?
After a short period of distraction, he immediately realized that if something happened to the North City Gate, then the entire Jishi City would be over. It seemed that the Yan Army had an ambush at the North City Gate, and the North City Gate, except for the cavalry of He Lanyan and Bai Yucheng In addition, there are only a hundred or so soldiers in charge of security.
This cavalry can only be used as a surprise soldier, and once it is caught in a battle with the enemy, it will definitely lose to the opponent. You must know that among the 2,000 cavalry, only six or seven hundred are real soldiers. If they can't make full use of the speed of the horse, it's all over.
Jiang Jiaquan acted immediately.
The guards in the general's mansion, the yamen servants in charge of the city's order in Jishi City's city guard mansion, should be arrested and assembled as quickly as possible, and Jiang Jiaquan will go to rescue the north gate in person.
"Long history!" Jiang Jiaquan, who was about to leave, heard the shout behind him, turned around, and saw Ye Jinger rushing out of the inner mansion with a group of guards.
"Ma'am, why did you come out?" Jiang Jiaquan was surprised.
"Is something wrong with the North City Gate?" Ye Jing'er looked over his head and looked towards the direction of the North City.
"It's okay, where are the instructors He Lan and General Bai Yucheng, I just went to check and respond, just in case." Jiang Jiaquan tried his best to downplay the matter.
Ye Jing'er smiled suddenly, "Chang Shi don't need to hide from me, now our forces are concentrated in the other three directions. There must be something wrong at the north gate, otherwise Chang Shi would personally dispatch. Jing'er is just a weak woman and can't help Nothing else to do. But I still have these dozens of fierce warriors by my side. It would be a waste to stay with me in the inner courtyard, so let them follow the long history to kill the enemy." With a wave of hands. Dozens of guards around Ye Jing'er stepped out.
"No, ma'am, this is to protect your safety, and it must not be used." Jiang Jiaquan quickly declined.
"There is no skin. How can the hair be attached?" Ye Jing'er smiled and said: "If the city of Jishi is broken, what can they do if dozens of them help? Go to the north gate with Chang Shi, maybe it can play a big role. Shi, hurry up and don't delay."
Jiang Jiaquan no longer refuses, Ye Jinger is right. If the city is really broken, these dozens of guards are nothing more than a drop in the ocean, they can't protect Ye Jing'er safe and sound.
He bowed deeply to Ye Jinger. With nearly 200 people assembled temporarily, they rushed towards the north city gate.
Seeing Jiang Jiaquan and the soldiers going away, the smile on Ye Jing'er's face gradually disappeared, replaced by an extremely solemn expression.
"Ma'am, is Jishi City really dangerous?" Cao Lian'er was a little scared behind her.
"Brother once said that when the two armies are at war, there is no such thing as victory. A small accident may change the entire situation of the war. It is obvious that the war has reached an extremely critical moment. Lian'er, you are a little scared Is it?" Ye Jinger asked.
Cao Lian'er straightened her chest, "Ma'am, Lian'er has died once, so there's nothing to be afraid of. It's just a death."
Ye Jing'er laughed and patted Cao Lian'er on the shoulder, "In that case, can you follow me to the South Gate?"
"Ma'am, the south gate is the main battlefield, it's too dangerous. Besides, the guards have all left with Chang Shi, and Ma'am doesn't even have a guard by her side." Cao Lian'er said in surprise.
"This is Jishi City, and the city is full of elder brother's people. What is there to be afraid of, will someone plot against me? Come on, follow me to the south gate."
Outside Nancheng, when the sudden change occurred, Hu Yanchao and Tan Feng quickly made adjustments after a short period of absence. More than 500 cavalrymen formed a phalanx with the remaining 3,000 soldiers from Liaoxi County and Tianhe County, and slowly advanced towards the North City. Their purpose was not to defeat the enemy cavalry at the North City Gate, but to Block them, entangle them.
They didn't know the situation at the north city gate, but they knew that if there was a cavalry force of thousands of people in the city, this battle would be a disaster.
"Commander Tan!" Hu Yanchao turned his gaze to Tan Feng.
Tan Feng swallowed hard, watching the fierce hand-to-hand combat everywhere on the city wall, maybe the next moment, victory will appear before his eyes.
"General Hu, let's fight again, one last time!" Tan Feng gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what happens at the north city gate, our opportunity here has finally appeared."
Hu Yanchao stared at the top of the city, and the opportunity did appear. On several walls, the Yan army had already climbed to the top of the city in more than ten places, and was starting a fierce hand-to-hand fight on the top of the city. The outcome between the two sides will not be revealed, but the attackers are all veterans of the army for many years, while the city is mostly recruits. As long as a bridgehead can be occupied in the city, we can use this point as a basis to expand the chances of victory little by little. Fruits, until the entire city was completely eaten away.
"I'll go in person!" Hu Yanchao took the reins of the horse, "At this time, there is no need to command. At this time, it is a desperate fight."
Tan Feng nodded, "Okay, I'll beat the drum!"
The banner of the Yan Army's Central Army began to move forward until it reached a distance of only four hundred steps from the top of the city. Above this distance, the bed crossbow above the top of the city could give Tan Feng a fatal blow and send him away. Shangxitian, but at this time, he didn't care at all, dozens of big drums were placed in front of him, he grabbed the biggest cowhide drum in the middle, and beat it vigorously.
Ye Jing'er was dressed in white, with fluttering skirts, walking on the main street of Jishi City, Cao Lian'er followed closely behind her, holding a dagger in her hand that she found somewhere. The two masters and servants walked on the quiet street like this.
I don't know when, behind the two of them, more than a dozen residents of Jishi City followed, including old and young, men and women, and even quite a few young boys.
"Ma'am!" Cao Lian'er felt a little uneasy and called out in a low voice.
Ye Jing'er glanced back, did not make a sound, turned her head, and continued to move forward in silence, but behind her, more people chased after her, hurried footsteps began to sound, and shouts echoed everywhere After a while, everyone in the city knew that the time for the decisive battle had come, and the mistress of Jishi City was walking towards the city wall.
Everyone put down their work. Originally, they were cooking for the soldiers, smelting refined iron in the workshop, beating the iron bars with a sledgehammer, and cutting the shafts of feathered arrows with a plane. They were taking care of the wounded soldiers in the house, but at this moment, they all stopped what they were doing, picked up everything around them that could be used as weapons, walked out from all over the city, and followed Ye Jinger's behind.
The craftsmen from the workshop, each holding a large bundle of weapons in their hands, walked forward and distributed the weapons in their hands to everyone in front of them. In the end, many people In their hands, they only held a feather arrow, and more people picked up stones on the ground.
They are not soldiers, they are just a group of brave men who want to defend their homeland.
The south gate of the main battlefield has reached the most critical juncture. Nearly 20,000 standing troops have spared no effort to invest, making the top of the city dangerous everywhere. The gap in combat power between the soldiers of the two sides is still obvious. It is because they have the city as evidence, Tang Ming and Wang Yi are all scarred, even Ye Zhen was wounded in several places, dripping with blood, there are only a hundred elites left by his side, this team followed him Running on the top of the city, if there is a danger there, they will appear there.
Ye Zhen was panting heavily, leaning on a knife, his legs were a little weak when he just knocked down a Yan army that rushed to the top of the city. Just now, the Yan army rushed to the top of the city as many as dozens of people. If he hadn't come in time, I'm afraid Yan Jun would have gained a foothold here.
He gasped for a few breaths, and was about to lead these people to another dangerous place. Ye Zhen was shocked when he saw the wind in his eyes. He saw Ye Jing'er fluttering in white in this place. Time appeared at the head of the city and was walking towards the top of the city tower.
"Miss, why are you here to cause trouble at this time!" Even if Ye is really Ye's retainer, at this time, he still couldn't help but almost cursed out, but then he was stunned, because the road leading from the bottom of the city to the top of the city On the passageway, a steady stream of people were rushing towards the top of the city with weapons in their hands. When these people came up to the city, they waved their weapons and shouted and rushed towards the place where the enemy appeared. Ye Zhen took a step forward and reached the city wall The scene on the edge and below the city made him extremely shocked, densely packed, countless people were shouting and rushing towards this place, and all the passages to the city were covered with densely packed crowds at this time.
Boom boom boom!
On the city tower, the drum was beating, Ye Zhen looked up, the one who was waving the drumstick to beat the big drum turned out to be Miss.
"Kill the enemy!" Ye Jing'er's voice was not very loud, but at this moment, Ye Zhen could hear it very clearly.
"Kill the enemy!" He roared angrily, and threw himself at the few Yan troops who had just rushed to the top of the wall.
"Kill the enemy!" On the top of the city, the soldiers who had been fighting for a long time burst out the last energy in their bodies.
"Kill the enemy!" Countless roars erupted from the top of the city, and the Yan army who had just established a foothold on the top of the city was drowned by countless people in an instant.
Hu Yanchao backed away in shock.
Tan Feng hung down the drumstick feebly.
Yan Jun retreated back like a tide.
Ye Jing'er stood on the tower, waving the drumstick vigorously, and at this moment, there seemed to be nothing left between the heaven and the earth.
"Brother, I will help you defend Jishi City." In Ye Jinger's heart, there was only this thought left, and it was this thought that inspired her to raise her slender arms and beat them with all her strength. drumsticks.
