Chapter 83 (1/2)

As expected by Chen Ren, several small leaders of the Shanyue army saw that the fire had not subsided, but had a tendency to spread. Moreover, all the soldiers under his command were not able to vomit, so they immediately chose to withdraw their troops, and Yuzhang city finally carried on the next day.

At this time, the lack of commander in chief of the mountain Yue army broke out again. That night, many mountain Yue soldiers began to flee. Originally, because of a fierce battle in the daytime, there were less than 50000 mountain Yue troops left, but now there are only more than 40000. However, these remaining leaders of the Shan Yue army were not fools. After discussion, they decided to use the method of the first day to besiege the city on all sides, and Chen Ren's most worried thing was finally about to happen.

When the sun began to shine on the earth on the third day, the mountain and Yue army had begun to surround Yuzhang city. Chen Ren looked at the movement of the mountain and Yue army, his face changed, and he sighed. He said to the general and Bao Bao behind him, ”you should guard the walls on both sides, and you must pay attention to bow and arrow suppression. In the battle of yesterday, most of them were archers. Today, they will be divided into four teams, which will certainly pose little threat to the city wall. As for the back... ”

Chen Ren felt a sudden pain in his heart. Yes, if Xie Xie was still alive at the moment, he would guard the four walls with them. Now he is only three generals, so he can't be assigned.

”My Lord! Give us the back wall A voice sounded, and Chen Ren looked, but it was the one hundred Jiangdong sergeants who had survived with him before. The one who spoke wrapped the left half of his head with white cloth, and there was a little blood in the position of his left eye.

Chen Ren looked at the sergeants. All of them were wounded. Some of them were missing their arms and legs. They were obviously disabled. Chen Ren's nose was sour, turned his head and said, ”no way! You are still wounded! Your task is to take good care of your wounds

Another sergeant, who used a gun as a crutch, his leg was empty from below the knee. The sergeant said with a smile, ”my Lord! Although we are just soldiers, we have received basic command training before. Now we can't fight against the enemy. Let's do our last bit for adults! Please help me After that, the sergeant simply dropped his spear and fell to his knees.

”Yes! adult! Please help us Those Jiangdong sergeants were all kneeling on the ground. The sergeant with white cloth on his head knelt and clasped his fist and said, ”my Lord! We are all proud to be able to fight with adults this time! If we can build a great cause for the Lord and the Lord, we are soldiers, but we are willing to give our lives! I wish you all the best

The sergeant turned to bite the cloth heavily and said, ”Sergeant Chen must have broken his leg.”

Chen Ren agreed to let these soldiers guard the city wall. All the soldiers were beaming with joy. They clasped their fists toward Chen, and then turned to support each other and walked toward the wall behind. All the guards made way for them one after another, and their eyes were filled with admiration.

Chen Ren turned to look at the besieged Shan Yue army in front of him. At present, the garrison was assigned. The garrison and Bao Bao each took 500 defenders, while those assigned to Jiangdong sergeants were 700. Chen Ren left only 300 defenders. However, no one will think that there is anything wrong with Chen Ren. The image that Chen Ren brings to the public these two days is powerful and invincible, and any Chen can be worth thousands of troops.

”My Lord!” A sergeant suddenly came up from under the city wall and walked to Chen Ren's back, clasping fists and shouting.

”What's the matter?” Chen Ren is still looking at the mountain and Yue army outside the city, and he is constantly thinking about the strategy of responding to the enemy.

”My Lord! The people in the city spontaneously came to ask for assistance in guarding the city

”Oh?” Chen Ren turned back and walked quickly to the other side of the city wall. Looking down, nearly ten thousand people were standing under the wall, holding kitchen knives and shovels.

Chen Ren knew that Yuzhang city was a big city in Jiangdong. There were about 100000 people living in the city. Moreover, before Shanyue attacked the city, the general could not bear to see the people outside the city being slaughtered by Shanyue and brought the people into the city. At this time, there were several hundred thousand people in the city.

As soon as they saw Chen Ren's head outstretched, and the common people had seen that even the guards of Yuzhang city were following him, they knew that he must be a senior official. A middle-aged man who was promoted to be the leader immediately said in a loud voice: ”my Lord! Please let us help guard the city, too

Chen Ren was moved by the courage of these people, but also a wry smile on his face. What can these ordinary people without military training do? If they were to shoot the enemy, I'm afraid it would be just a waste of arrows. Chen Ren immediately said to the people, ”thank you for your support! But fighting is the duty of soldiers. You civilians should not be allowed to do these things! Fellow villagers, go back, we will defeat the enemy! ”
