Anyone who invades Daqi's territory will be punished

Both sides were fighting desperately, neither giving in.

More and more people died below, and the bodies piled up like a mountain, about to pile up to the height of the city wall.

The blood gathered into a stream and flowed into the city gate.

On the city wall, the bodies were scattered all over the city wall, and the blood poured on the city wall.

The Zhan family army on the city wall was defending.

The attack from below was extremely difficult!

The high-protection armor of the Zhan family army made the enemy troops on the city wall helpless and were killed by the Zhan family army on the city wall.

This battle was extremely difficult and anxious!

Until nightfall, the Zhan family army used fire to attack!

That's right, they didn't know where they got the strong-smelling kerosene.

They burned more than a dozen siege vehicles!

Countless soldiers were burned to death.

Even the bodies were burned in the fire!

The siege soldiers couldn't get close!

Ling Xiaofeng saw that the siege was hopeless, he was sad and desperate...

Even so, he didn't want to retreat!

He and Zhan Tianyi had no chance to fight, but he lost to his son.

He refused to admit defeat!

The king of Daqi was frightened by the explosions one after another.

He wanted to retreat.

Because General Yue Hong roughly counted that Daqi had lost 60,000 soldiers in half a day.

The death toll was higher than that of Chu.

If the battle continued, the death toll of Qi would increase to 100,000 if Zhenguan was not captured.

Only 100,000 were left out of the 200,000 troops.

The national strength of Qi would be greatly reduced.

At that time, not to mention Chu, Yan and Yu would be able to step on it.

It doesn't matter if the war is lost, as long as you preserve your strength, you can continue to make a comeback.

"Monarch, retreat?"

On the city wall, countless solar lights were lit up, Zhan Chengyin pulled the Qin crossbow, and aimed the arrow at the king of Daqi.

The young and arrogant monarch was trembling with fear.

He shouted to Yue Hong: "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor quickly!"

"Yue Hong, retreat, retreat quickly!"

It's not shameful to lose a battle.

Losing your life is the most shameful!

Yue Hong gave an order, "Retreat..."

The Qi army mixed with each other and retreated in embarrassment.

The Qi army retreated, but the Chu army had not retreated.

Ling Xiaofeng still ordered the siege.

But the soldiers of the State of Chu had the idea of retreating.

Qi didn't fight anymore, so how could the State of Chu bite off this hard bone.

The Zhan family army had only tens of thousands of people, but their equipment was several levels higher than that of the State of Chu.

Those people wearing black military uniforms and black helmets.

No matter how they cut, they couldn't cut in. How could they fight this battle? What's more, the weapon of the Mo Dao was too sharp and against the sky. The two sides fought, and the weapons of the State of Chu could actually be cut by the Mo Dao!

What could they fight with?

Ling Yunzhe and Ling Shichen said to their father, "Father, retreat!"

"If we continue to grind, the death of the soldiers of the Great Chu will only increase."

How could Ling Xiaofeng admit defeat?

His eyes widened in horror, bloodshot, and his armor was stained with blood, but he refused to retreat.

"I, Ling Xiaofeng, have never lost in my life. You want me to admit defeat?"

"Father, is it meaningless to fight? Can we break through Zhan Chengyin's defenses?"

"Even the armor worn by his soldiers cannot be pierced. How can the Chu army attack the city?"

"He has 50,000 people, and his real combat power is no less than 150,000. What's more, his soldiers' weapons are like cutting iron into mud when fighting the Chu army!"

Whether it is the Qin crossbow, the Mo Dao, or the black military uniform...

Zhan Chengyin shocked them more than in this life!

They didn't know that the equipment of the Daqi army was already ahead of the barbarians!

In the past six months, Zhan Chengyin was almost broken into by the barbarians several times, but it was the barbarians' luck.

If they fight with the barbarians again, the barbarians will be beaten to a pulp.

Therefore, Zhenguan must be attacked.

We must build better weapons and equipment before we fight.

And the gunpowder that can kill a lot of people.

They must develop it.

Otherwise, they have no chance of winning against the Zhan family army.

This time, the 350,000-man siege failed because they were careless.

It's not that Zhan Chengyin is so brave and uses troops like a god.

He just has advanced equipment and weapons. It's nothing great!

Losing to him is not shameful!

"Father, let's go back and make gunpowder, pick up a few long swords, and long arrows... take them all back to develop."

"It doesn't matter if we lose this time. We will be stationed a hundred miles away, develop new weapons, come back again, and kill him. Who knows the humiliation today!"

"History is rewritten by the victors, father!"

Ling Xiaofeng was finally persuaded by his eldest son. His eyes were bloodshot and he shouted sadly: "Retreat!"

The Chu soldiers retreated, and their pace was even faster than that of Qi.

They fled with carrying about the wounded soldiers.

Seeing this, Ling Xiaofeng was furious: "leave the wounded soldiers . Those who disobey will be punished with military sticks!"

The Chu army left the wounded soldiers and retreated a hundred miles away before stopping.

Zhan Chengyin was covered in blood and stood on the city wall, watching the two armies fleeing.

He clenched his hand holding the Mo Dao.

Retreat.

The Chu and Qi countries finally retreated.

They finally won this battle!

Chen Kui shouted: "The Chu and Qi countries have retreated, we won!"

Countless soldiers cheered, each of them with blood on their faces and bodies, and some even died.

Before the general said to retreat, they relied on a breath to hold on until now.

Until the enemy retreated, this breath dissipated.

The Mo Dao fell to the ground with a clang, and they sat on the ground full of corpses and blood, their hands shaking uncontrollably.

Won.

The Zhan family army won.

The town pass was defended!

Ah~

Countless of them cried.

This battle was too difficult to fight.

The soldiers of Chu and Qi were too tough and had too much willpower.

They knew they would die, but they still went to die one after another.

This kind of battle is the most exhausting.

Fortunately, they finally made it through.

They won!

Zhan Chengyin said: "For the successful defense of the city, each person will be rewarded with two bags of rice and one bag of flour. For the soldiers who died in the battle, their families will be rewarded with four bags of rice and two bags of flour."

"It can be exchanged immediately!"

"Now clean the battlefield, pick up the weapon purse, and take off the armor."

"Dig a pit and burn the enemy's corpse."

Chen Kui asked ,"General what about the wonded enemy shoulders?"

Zhan Chengyin looked at thousands of wonded chu and qi soldiers left behind .looked at their listleas figures, then looked at sky.

And took mega phone from near by,and said,"soldiers of chu and qi ,you have been deserted by your leaders,the generals for whom you who fought gave up on u.I ll give you choice ,either die or come to me ,I ll take care of you and your family.Those who join us will be provided with food and water."

Hearing this many Zhan soldiers looked stunned,while wounded soldiers of chu and qi teared up.

They never thought they will be given a chance to survive by the enemy.

Can they really drink food?

Also there will be food.

They all struggled to get up and surrendered, atleast they could live.They all threw away their weapons.

Seeing this Zhan Chengyin instructed Chen Kui to arrange the chu and qi soldiers and feed them ,

get them treated.

"Build a tomb for the corpse of our army, write the name, and worship it every Qingming Festival!"

After resting for a while, the soldiers all stood up and prepared to clean the battlefield.

When the people in Zhenguan heard that they had won the battle, they all brought kettles and hot porridge to the city wall to deliver food to the soldiers.

And more people consciously helped clean the battlefield.

The men went out of the city, dug a pit one mile outside the city wall, threw the corpse down, and lit kerosene to burn the corpse.

On the city wall, the women carried the dead soldiers of the Zhan family to bury them.

Ye Mumu waited until ten o'clock in the evening, and could no longer bear it, so she wrote a letter to Zhan Chengyin.

"How is it?"

"Did you win or lose?"

"I didn't expect that batch of fake wine was seized. The purchase procedures are so troublesome. If it is delivered earlier, wouldn't it be more timely?"

"Zhan Chengyin, why didn't you reply to my message? Did you lose? Did Zhenguan City fall?"

"Zhan Chengyin, you promised me that you would be alive! You must be alive!"

"Zhan Chengyin, Zhan Chengyin... say something? What happened to you?"

She was so worried.

Afraid that Zhan Chengyin would die.

As written in the unofficial history, he died in battle at the age of twenty-one!

So young.

She didn't even have time to take a look at him, to see what he looked like...

He must not die!

She would be sad and cry!
