C17 Difficult defense
Hearing this, Deng Yaorong couldn't help but think. After a while, Deng YaoRong lightly said, "Okay, this is the only way. However, Du Zhengyuan, you don't have to stay in Peace City. You can leave with the Night Wolf Army and the Du Yuan Prefecture. " Hearing Deng Yaorong's words, Du Zhengyuan shook his head and said, "No, Deng Yaorong, I was the one who proposed this plan, so I should stay in Peace City."
"And now and the people of Shuncheng know that we, the Night Wolf Army soldiers, have fought a great battle with the Haskata people. If all of our Night Wolf Army soldiers leave Heskata, the citizens of Heskata will lose their confidence. If that were the case, it would be impossible for him to defend Peace City. "That's why I, Du Xiangyuan, must stay in Peace City with you, Deng YaoRong, and all the other civilians. That's how we can defend Peace City."
Hearing this, Deng YaoRong nodded and calmly said, "Okay, since that's the case, then we'll stay in the He Shun City." Du Zhengyuan nodded and said, "Okay, Deng Yaorong, you can start preparing the defense and Shuncheng now. I also want to go back and make some preparations." With that said, Du Xiangyuan brought Du Xiangyu, Du Yuan Prefecture, Cheng Shenghua, and Chen Jianke and left Deng Yaorong's City Lord's Mansion.
After returning to the camp of the night wolf soldiers, Du Chengyuan said, "Du Zhengyuan, this time, I, Du Zhengyuan, will also stay." That's right, and me. " Hearing Du Chengu's words, Cheng Shenghua also hastily spoke up. Du Zhengyuan shook his head and said, "No."
"The Du Yuan Prefecture requires manpower. The Du Yuan Prefecture is the key to whether or not we can protect and protect the city. "Right now, all of you will go with Du Yuan Prefecture. Du Zhaonu, Cheng Shenghua, Chen Jianke, all of you will leave Peace City together with Du Yuan Prefecture."
"But, Du Zhengyuan, it's too dangerous for you to stay in Hushun City." Cheng Shenghua asked nervously. If you can't defeat the Haskatars, I'll be in real danger. " Du Zhengyuan shook his head and said. Upon hearing this, Du Zhaonu, Cheng Shenghua, and Chen Jianke also stopped chattering and began to prepare to leave Peace City with Du Yuan Prefecture. On the second day after the city of Du Yuan and the Night Wolf soldiers left, the Haskata army arrived at the city of Hishun.
Looking at the Haskata people who were building their own camp, Du Xiangyuan said lightly, "It seems these Haskata people are prepared to besiege us and Shuncheng for a long time."
"The Haskatars have attacked us and Shuncheng six times, but each time they have left nothing but a floor full of corpses. "It's just that in the past six times, there have never been so many Haskatars attacking Shun City and us." Deng YaoRong shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
As soon as the Haskatars had set up their own camp, the Haskatars began to make siege equipment. However, the Haskatta people's skills were simple, and the equipment they used to attack the city was nothing more than ladders that could be used to attack the city. Raising his head to look at the sky, Deng Yaorong said, "It's almost night. Let's go back and have a good rest." "It seems like the Haskatta people will not attack the city today."
"Alright, there will probably be a fierce battle tomorrow." Du Zhengyuan lightly said. This time, although there were only three thousand Great Wei Empire soldiers in Hushun City, Du Zhengyuan was in Hushun City. He had recruited over ten thousand of the Great Wei Empire soldiers to protect and protect Deng Yaorong.
Although the citizens of Hushun City had not gone through any professional military training, with the city walls, it would not be too disadvantageous for them to fight against the Haskatars. On the morning of the second day, the Haskattans had finished their breakfast and were making their way to Peace City.
Under the horn of the Haskatta, the Haskattas attacked Hishan City in a frenzy. As the vanguard of Shuncheng, Arslan did not show any fear as he charged ahead of them. At the same time, the soldiers on top of the city walls of Shuncheng City also shot their bows.
As the soldiers of the Great Wei Empire shot at them, the Haskattans immediately paid a heavy price. However, the arrows of the soldiers of the Great Wei Empire were still unable to stop the assault of the Haskattans. Soon enough, the Haskattans approached the city walls of He Shun City. Placing their ladders on the walls of He Shun City, they began to climb up.
Seeing this, Deng Yaorong immediately shouted loudly, "Quick, use the rolling stones to attack these Haskattans!" Hearing Deng YaoRong's order, the soldiers of the Great Wei Empire on top of the city wall immediately threw the stones in their hands towards Haskatta's face.
Under the assault of the soldiers of the Great Wei Empire, the Haskattans were smashed down one by one, but they kept climbing up the walls of the city. Even though a Haskatta had just climbed the city walls of Hishun, he was killed by a soldier of the Great Wei Empire. However, the other Haskata immediately climbed back up and charged again.
After one of them blocked the attack of a soldier from the Great Wei Empire with his saber, he killed the soldier with a backhand slash. After killing the soldiers of the Great Wei Empire, the Haskatta people had no more to stop them. They walked straight up to the city walls of the city. However, the Haskatta people did not attack the other soldiers of the Great Wei Empire.
Instead, he firmly guarded this area, allowing the other people of Haskatta City to climb up onto their pikes without any signs of stopping. Soon enough, Du Xiangyuan knew that they were here and he immediately rushed over with a few Great Wei Empire soldiers. At this moment, there were six or seven Haskattans climbing up the ladder. Seeing Du Xiangyuan running towards them, a few Haskata men rushed over, brandishing their scimitars.
At this time, Du Zhengyuan had completely poured all of his battle qi into the sword in his hand. With one sword strike, he sent the saber flying out of the hands of one of the Haskatars. After that, he agilely performed his own sword technique and stabbed the sword into the neck of this Haskatan.
After killing a Haskata, Du Zhengyuan nimbly turned around and appeared behind a Haskata. Before the Haskatta could even react to what had happened, he was stabbed to death by Du Xiangyuan's sword.
Du Xiangyuan had killed two Haskata men so quickly, which obviously infuriated the rest of them. The four Haskata men all roared and charged at Du Xiangyuan with their scimitars raised. However, even in the face of the four Haskattans' attacks, Du Zhengyuan didn't show any fear. After dodging the machete of one of the Haskatars, he quickly turned around and missed the two Haskatars. He suddenly appeared in front of the last Haskata. Seeing that Du Zhaiyuan had suddenly appeared in front of him, the Haskata man quickly raised his machete and chopped down. But Du Zhengyuan was even faster, and his sword struck the right foot of the Haskatta. As his right leg was attacked, the Haskattan man let out a miserable shriek. This was an opportunity for Du Xiangyuan to raise his sword and use the hilt of his sword to hit the Haskatta man's chin. The Haskata man was beaten until he was forced to retreat.
Seeing that he had the chance, Du Xiangyuan kicked the Haskata man right in the chest, knocking him off the city walls of Hishun City. However, at this time, Du Zhengyuan was also surrounded by the three Haskattans. Although Du Zhengyuan's sword was fast enough to kill the Haskattans, he lost the ability to move after Du Zhengyuan was surrounded by the Haskattans.
However, at this time, the rest of the Great Wei Empire soldiers also rushed over. A Haskatta man was about to attack Du Zhaiyuan from the front with a scimitar in his hand when he was stabbed to death by a long spear in the hand of a Great Wei Empire soldier. With the support of these Great Wei Empire soldiers, Du Zhengyuan finally defeated the Haskattans and defended this section of the wall.
Although Du Zhengyuan was guarding a section of the city wall, the city wall was hundreds of meters long, so a single Du Zhengyuan naturally wouldn't be able to defend all of them. Very soon, the other city walls of Shuncheng were also attacked by the Haskatars. Seeing the worsening situation on top of the city wall, Deng YaoRong immediately said, "Quick, get the young men of the He Shun City to come up and help guard the city."
Hearing Deng YaoRong's order, a general and a young man from Shuncheng City immediately went to help. Although the battle prowess of the West Zhejiang and Shuncheng youths was limited, they were still outnumbered. In a short period of time, these youths were no match for the Haskatars.
After stabbing his sword into the body of a Haskatta, Du Zhengyuan could no longer remember how many Haskattans he had killed. Du Zhengyuan only knew that the Haskatta people kept charging up to the city of Heishun, seemingly without end. At this moment, Du Zhenyuan suddenly heard a loud roar.
Following the source of the sound, Du Zhengyuan saw a warrior completely covered in armor wielding a hammer in his hand as he killed people from Haskatta Clan. Although Du Xiangyuan didn't know who this warrior was, he knew who this armor was. It was the armor that had been passed down through the generations of the He Xi family.
Among the He Xi family, there were more than a dozen ancestors who had built brilliant military exploits for the Great Wei Empire. The armor and weapons of the He Xi family ancestors had always been regarded as treasures by the He Xi family. What this warrior was talking about was the armor that the sixth ancestor of the Hexi family had once used.
