Jiangzhou, from top to bottom, from inside to outside, is naturally on guard and is ready to fight at any time.

Zhu Xiuyuan climbed up the tower from time to time to check the movements of the Yan army. When he saw that there was no movement, he went back and forth between "Bronze Work" and "Shen Lei Work"...

During the day, there was no movement from the Yan army, but the sky was getting dark.

On the Jiangzhou City Tower, the flames on the torches kept beating.

"My dear friend, I haven't seen the Yan army attacking the city in the past few days, it's just a siege. We need to be alert to the Yan army's surprise attack at night to catch us off guard." Yan Dashan made a bold guess.

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded and glanced at Yan Dashan, Elder Liu and Elder Guan.

"The Yan army is very likely to launch a surprise attack after midnight. At that time, the troops are tired and the horses are exhausted, which is when the defense is the most relaxed. We need to arrange for the sergeants to keep watch."

Yan Dashan and the two elders Liu and Guan nodded.

Dong Shuzhen, who was behind Zhu Xiuyuan, also echoed: "Okay, husband, I understand!"

Dong Shuzhen wears pink armor and a black cloak, and is dressed in military uniform. However, she is petite and looks out of place.

Since this morning, she has been following Zhu Xiuyuan without leaving her armor.

He didn't go back to his hometown anymore and became a "full-time" "general".

For this reason, Zhu Xiuyuan had no choice but to let her go and sent Xia Wu, who also knew kung fu, back to the mansion to protect the safety of the mansion.

Dong Shuzhen regarded herself as the "defensive general" and participated in the entire process of defending the city.

Just like the conversation just now, Zhu Xiuyuan didn't actually tell her, but Dong Shuzhen was not polite and consciously participated...

Zhu Xiuyuan glanced at Dong Shuzhen and ignored her.

A strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"If the Yan army dares to attack the city at night, hehe, let them have a taste of the newly made weapons."

Upon hearing what Zhu Xiuyuan said, the two elders Yan Dashan, Liu and Guan looked at each other and exchanged glances.

In addition to the usual worry, there was also a look of disbelief, expectation and excitement on his face.

At midnight, everything was fine.

In the middle of the night, at the beginning of Yin time, at three o'clock in the morning.

woo woo woo woo!

The entire four walls of Jiangzhou sounded the horn almost simultaneously.

It was so terrible that it shook the mountains.

It blew up almost everyone in the city.

Almost all the houses in the city are occupied by women, children, old and young, because the young and strong men have been drafted as civilian husbands and do not rest at home.

The shrill and shrill sound of the horn, which was as powerful as a ghost's hissing, was extremely penetrating. It sounded again at the time of Yin, when the people in the city were in deep sleep.

The sudden intrusion of the horn sound really startled the women, children, old and young.

The man in the family was not there, and the woman stayed alone in the empty room. At this night, she woke up in the middle of the night, feeling really flustered and confused.

I couldn't help shrinking into the corner of the bed, wrapping myself tightly in the quilt, praying to Buddha in my heart, hoping that this was just a nightmare.

If there are children at home, it will be even more chaotic.

There were shrill howls and a child crying, creating chaos.

However, those women could only forcefully overcome the fear in their hearts and get up all night to comfort the young children.

Under the north city wall, in Zhu Xiuyuan's temporary housing.

When the horn blew, Zhu Xiuyuan woke up and sat up.

His heart was pounding, fear and excitement spread throughout his body, uncontrollably.

Zhu Xiuyuan immediately had a thought in his mind: Here we come, the Yan army is indeed attacking the city at night!

However, as Zhu Xiuyuan stood up, he suddenly found that the "pendant" on his body was also carried by him and he sat up.

But it turned out that it was Dong Shuzhen who, adhering to the principle of "the more the better", secretly "conceived the baby" with her husband while he was sleeping.

Zhu Xiuyuan hurriedly looked at Dong Shuzhen, only to see that she had also woken up.

His eyes were wide open, and there was clearly surprise in them.

He shouted: "The Yan army is finally here! Qiu Wen, Qiu Wen, change your clothes, change your clothes quickly, I am going to go up the city wall and kill the Yan army!"

The excited Dong Shuzhen had already "let go" of Zhu Xiuyuan, jumped out of bed, and looked everywhere for her pink armor.

Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, lifted up the quilt, lit a candle, found his middle coat and put it on first.

At the same time, there was already a chaos in the entire courtyard.

Na Qiuwen rushed into the room in a hurry and helped Dong Shuzhen put on the pink armor and black cloak at a very fast speed. Then the two women started to put on Zhu Xiuyuan's armor together.

Zhu Xiuyuan has changed into a relatively ordinary set of armor, which is no longer as annoying as the white armor and red cloak that he first entered the battle formation.

The two quickly put on their armor, took their weapons, went out, and went straight to the tower.

There were only a dozen generals on the tower and no one else.

Yan Dashan and the two elders Liu and Guan guarded the east, south and west city gates respectively, and did not rest under the North City Tower.

As for Liu Wencai and Zhu Xiuyuan, as soon as they went up the stairs, he followed behind.

"Sir Sima, the Yan army intended to sneak into the city and attack the city while our army was unprepared. However, the whereabouts of the Yan army were discovered by our army immediately, so the horn was blown."

"well done!"

Zhu Xiuyuan praised him and then looked over to check the movements of Yan's army.

I saw the Yan army, the fastest group of men and horses, only forty or fifty steps away from the Jiangzhou city wall.

No torch was held.

And a large number of people came from behind, all holding torches in their hands, and they surged forward like a sea of ​​fire.

It can be seen that the Yan army did try to attack the city quietly and catch the Jiangzhou defenders by surprise.

That's why the fastest group of people didn't hold up the torches.

Fortunately, the Jiangzhou defenders made careful arrangements and discovered the Yan army's movements in advance.

At this time, the Yan army's shouts of killing were loud, like the roar of thousands of mosquitoes.

In this early morning night, it was particularly shocking.

"Send the order to meet the enemy!"

The sound of a drum was transmitted to the other three city gates through "relay" messengers.

The Yan army was obviously fully prepared and attacked fiercely as soon as they came up. The battle entered a fierce stage as soon as it started.

A quarter of an hour later.

The Jiangzhou garrison had exhausted all the thundering stones, rolling wood, etc. accumulated yesterday, and was already slightly "stretched."

After a while, the brave Yan army took the lead and attacked the Jiangzhou city wall.

Zhu Xiuyuan urgently ordered Dong Shuzhen to go into battle to stop the Yan army.

He also ordered the messenger: "The time has come, order the use of the fierce fire oil tank!"

The craftsmen worked day and night on the Menghuo Oil Cabinet, and the "product" that met the requirements was created the night before yesterday.

And at the evening of yesterday, they were installed on the four walls of Jiangzhou.

At the same time, the Yan army camp.

Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom, and the chief counselor were supervising the battle in the rear army.

The lights on the Jiangzhou city wall were brightly lit, as bright as day, so they had already seen the scene of the Yan army attacking the city wall.

"Okay!" Zhao Pu was overjoyed, clapped his hands and laughed: "The first person to attack Jiangzhou City Wall will be rewarded with five hundred taels of gold!"

The chief strategist cupped his hands and said: "Congratulations, Your Highness, Congratulations, Your Highness, this time I, the Great Yan'erlang, attack the city at night and will definitely defeat Jiangzhou..."
Chapter completed!
