254 Drumming, closing troops

When Huainan received Nan Yanqi's order, Prince Yi's Yi's army was already approaching Yecheng.

"Huainan, you leave now, I'm still here. King Qi also said that he would send generals to come soon! You came to Yecheng this time to take over Yecheng, and your mission has been completed!" Ping Yi advised. At this time, he and Nan Yanqi had the same idea, and both hoped that Huainan could return to Mingzhou City as soon as possible. Although it cannot guarantee that Mingzhou City is safe, it must be much safer than Yecheng.

Huainan glared at Pingyi, with anger in his voice, "Now Yijun is about to arrive in Yecheng. If you ask me to leave at this time, do you think I am that kind of person?"

Ping Yi once loved Huainan's righteous appearance very much, but at this moment he felt that after taking this person to heart, he felt that he would rather be selfish.

"I know your temperament, but now we are in the middle of war, you should obey the orders!" Ping Yi advised with great thought, his eyebrows frowned, with concern.

Huainan waved his hand, "Okay, I won't leave. Now I'm leaving is simply unkind and unrighteous, let alone how can I let you stay in this Yecheng alone! You don't have to persuade me anymore, it's useless to persuade me!"

Ping Yi looked at Huainan's persistent look and knew that no matter how much he said, it would be useless. He waved his hand to the soldiers who came to pass the order, stood beside Huainan, and said helplessly, "Okay, it's mine, it's mine, not. Our Master Emperor is a woman who stands tall and upright, how can you escape in the battle!"

Huainan smiled and patted Ping Yi on the shoulder, "I know you understand me! Thank you!"

Ping Yi smiled back, but his heart was filled with bitterness. He would rather not understand Huainan. He would rather drive Huainan away by himself, but he also knew that Huainan would have more strength here. Ping Yi couldn't help but laugh at himself. He was such a righteous man, and he just couldn't be as selfish as King Qi. He really could only be a confidant.

The troops in Yecheng were preparing. Huainan stood on the wall of Yecheng every day and looked into the distance, and that direction was the direction of Nancangcheng. Once upon a time, Huainan didn't think there was anything good in Nancangcheng, but now she wandered here and found that it was really good there, not because Nancangcheng was so prosperous, but because it was her own home.

Just when everyone was nervous, Yijun came on the iron cavalry, and the people in the city had been protected and left by Huainan. If she could defend Yecheng, then these people would be moved back. If they could not, these people could have their lives.

The city walls were already full of soldiers, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and Ping Yi and Nan Manshu stood beside Huainan. Ping Yi was naturally different in his mind, and he had no fear when he saw this dark Yi Jun.

However, although Nan Manshu had seen war a few days ago, that time was obviously different. Now listening to the sound of horse hooves and the huge enemy, Nan Manshu curled up his fingers. She knew that she would face the real battlefield next. It was at this moment that Nan Manshu looked at Huainan beside him. At this time, Huainan was wearing silver armor, with serious eyebrows and staring at the Yijun below. For some reason, seeing Huainan's calm appearance, Nan Manshu also calmed down.

The leader of the Yi army this time was Deputy General Zhao under General Weiyuan. Deputy General Zhao took the lead at this time, and he saw the slender figure standing on the city wall from afar. Deputy General Zhao's eyes flashed. No wonder the general wanted to kill this person many times. Now it seems that although this imperial teacher is a woman, it is indeed a big problem.

"The Yi army has 40,000 people!" Ping Yi's voice was stable, and there was no panic because there were so many enemies. What's more, they should have known that the number of Yi army was large, which was within the range they expected.

"Siege the city!" Deputy General Zhao shouted with his arms raised, and the soldiers behind him headed towards the city gate like ants.

"Shoot the arrow!" Huainan waved his arm, and the soldiers on the city wall took a bow and shot arrows. Suddenly, dense arrows spread out from under the city wall and shot towards the Yijun below.

From the terrain, Yecheng had the advantage and shot arrows one by one. The Yijun fell one after another, and corpses were scattered under the city wall and were trampled by another soldier behind him.

Nan Manshu looked at this situation and shouted, "It's great!" She saw so many Yijuns falling down, and felt that if this continues, she will definitely win.

"It's too early to be happy!" Huainan said as he looked at the situation below. Sure enough, as Huainan finished speaking, Yijun changed his strategy.

I saw rows of soldiers in Yijun suddenly set up shields, and the shields went first, with the shields blocking them, and the arrows shot on the shields made a "ding-ding-dang" sound. The shields were slowly moving, getting closer and closer to the city gate. Under the cover of the shields, the Yijun carried the breaking hammer and looked like they were about to reach the city gate.

"What should I do?" Nan Manshu was a little panicked. You should know that the cracking hammers carried by these dozens of people were powerful, not to mention that the gate of Yecheng has been in disrepair for a long time. They came to Yecheng for too short a time to strengthen the gate. As long as the cracking hammer hits the gate, the gate will definitely be broken.

Huainan looked uneasy. She looked at the cracking hammer below and was about to hit the city gate. She took a long knife and handed it to Nan Manshu to "protect yourself!" After that, she went down the city tower with Pingyi. Nan Manshu held the long sword in his hand, looked at the backs of the two, holding it tightly in his hands, with a serious expression.

Just as the breaking hammer was lifted up heavily and hit the city gate, it suddenly hit a hole. Dozens of Yijun fell to the ground by the sudden breaking hammer.

At this moment, a crisp sound with a killing aura suddenly sounded, "Welcome to the enemy!" I saw soldiers roaring from the wide open city gate, shouting for killing.

Deputy General Zhao was still sitting on the horse at this time. He was stunned when he looked at the city gate that suddenly opened. You must know that the city gate in marching and fighting has never been opened directly like this, and it has not been defeated. Could it be that the imperial army is not afraid of hurting the people?

Huainan Hepingyi took the lead, and saw one killing one, and the soldiers behind him followed him, waving the big sword in his hand and killing him fiercely. With Huainan Hepingyi opening a hole in front, the soldiers behind him were greatly encouraged and their morale increased. For a moment, even if there was a gap in the number of our soldiers, they would overwhelm the Yi army in terms of momentum, and the morale of the soldiers in the war was extremely important.

Deputy General Zhao led the Yi army to attack. Even though the Yi army had lost a lot of people before, the Yi army is still under the number of soldiers led by Huainan.

One kills two, the other kills three, Huainan feels that she has red eyes. Her hands have been worn out by the skin because of her tightly holding the long sword, and blood has been oozing out. But the long sword seems to be growing on Huainan's hand, and she is still waving the long sword.

It is rare to see wearing armor. The long sword in his hand flows. At this time, his jade-like face is covered with blood. His silver armor is covered with blood. His eyes are full of murderous intent. There is only one word in his heart, kill!

Deputy General Zhao originally thought that he had found a loophole that allowed a small number of Yi troops to break into Yecheng. Deputy General Zhao knew very well that if King Qi's soldiers led the war to kill the people, even if King Qi wanted to restore the country, he would be despised by the people. But when that part of the Yi troops broke into the city, not only did he not see a single person, but the soldiers who were left behind in the city came towards him.

Nan Manshu stood above the steps of the city tower, and several soldiers stood in front of her. When she saw Yi Jun climbing up the city tower, Nan Manshu took a step back half a step. She stood on the city tower and saw such a terrible and bloody battlefield. Now she faced these enemies directly. Nan Manshu was a little scared. But just half a step, Nan Manshu stopped her retreating action and even moved forward a few steps. She was the princess of Nan Cang. Now the soldiers were fighting for Nan Cang. As a princess, there was no reason to retreat.

As the Yi army fell one after another under the swords of the former soldiers, there were still fish that escaped. When the Yi army came towards Nan Manshu, Nan Manshu gritted his teeth tightly. As the Yi army approached, the long sword suddenly pierced Yi army's chest. The blood flowed along the long sword to Nan Manshu's hands, and she could still feel the blood was warm.

Nan Manshu shouted in horror, but the long sword in his hand was pulled back to chop at another Yijun. Nan Manshu was like a madman at this time, and he saw Yijun. It has to be said that Nan Manshu's nonsense and murder without any skills made Yijun unable to withstand it, not to mention that Nan Manshu had soldiers to protect him. When the last Yijun who climbed up the city tower fell, Nan Manshu was trembling, but there was no fear in her eyes, and she had the will to fight to the death.

"Deputy General Zhao, this is the enemy too fierce!" The soldier stumbled to Deputy General Zhao. "If we continue like this, we will suffer serious losses. Even if we take Yecheng, no one can defend Yecheng!"

Deputy General Zhao also understood this truth. If they continue to fight now, they can win to a large extent with their strength, but in the same way, they will also suffer heavy losses. At that time, if Prince Yi sends troops to wait too long, Mingzhou City is very close to here, they will definitely be wiped out by all. In this way, the crushing defeat after victory is not something that Deputy General Zhao is willing to see.

"Beat the drum and stop the troops!" Deputy General Zhao could only grit his teeth and spoke in desperation.

Huainan was surrounded by dozens of Yi troops at this time. Huainan's long sword was constantly slashing and killing. Just as Huainan was red in his eyes, he suddenly heard the sound of drums coming from the enemy's direction. The sound was a retreat.

Huainan was stunned and looked at the entire battlefield. Why didn’t he understand the Yi Jun’s plan? At this time, Huainan led all the soldiers to kill one! Then, as Yi Jun faded away quickly, he shouted with the voice of internal force, "Don’t chase! Go back to the city!"

After hearing the order, the soldiers quickly returned to the city and the city gate was closed tightly again. Huainan was covered in blood and Hepingyi stepped onto the city tower again. Nan Manshu greeted him and looked at Huainan's embarrassed look and wanted to say something, but this was not the time.

Huainan also saw that Nan Manshu's hair was scattered, and the long sword in his hand was still covered with blood. He naturally understood what Nan Manshu had experienced. She met Nan Manshu's gaze and just nodded.

Standing on the city tower, I saw that the Yi Jun had not walked far away, but was just stationed around Yecheng. Huainan frowned, "We suffered heavy losses this time, and now we are short of troops. Look at the Yi Jun, who is going to fight a protracted war with us!"

"Indeed, although the Yi army has suffered a lot now, it is very likely that it will be possible to defeat us! And they are stationed outside, so we can't even seek help. Many soldiers in the city are injured and need medicine and food. In the long run, if the Yi army does not need to take action, we will be desperate!" Ping Yi analyzed that they are now in a very serious situation.
Chapter completed!
