Just as Lu Zhao was in a state of turmoil, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Look! There is a boat over there!"

Everyone couldn't help but look over, and saw that the water and sky were connected to the north, there were really boats coming, densely packed, filling the entire water surface.

In fact, this cannot be called a boat, it can only be called a raft. The relatively simple raft can only be carried by five or six people on each raft, but the number of these rafts is extremely spectacular, with a large area of ​​black covering a large area of ​​water.

These rafts went downstream without any need to paddle. They came very quickly. At first, they were just small black spots, but in just a short while, the rafts had already reached the outer wall of Xindu.

There is no doubt that this is the fleet of the Bingzhou Army, and you can see the flag of the Bingzhou Army on the raft from a distance.

Lu Zhao's face was ashamed, and his heart felt sad. At this moment, he knew very well that the letter had been finished.

Originally, Lu Zhao was hoping that the Bingzhou army would launch a new attack after the flood subsided. In that way, even if the situation was difficult, the Jizhou army still had a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, Cao Liang also killed Lu Zhao's last glimmer of hope. Without ships, the Bingzhou army set up countless rafts so that it could cross this flooded area.

Such an attack is simply fatal. At this time, the flood had risen to a height of only a few feet from the city. As long as the Bingzhou army launches an attack, it can easily climb to the city.

Of course, the most difficult thing is the situation on the city wall. Hundreds of thousands of people rushed up, and the entire city wall was already crowded with people. Whether it was the soldiers guarding the city or ordinary people, they were shoulder to shoulder. Not to mention the passage, there was not even a place to turn around. Some people raised their feet and couldn't put them down, which shows how crowded it was.

Such a crowded situation also made the defenders unable to fight at all. As long as a row of arrows was shot by the Bingzhou Army, no arrow would fall into nothing and would easily kill countless people.

After seeing the Bingzhou army attack, a wave of restlessness broke out on the top of the city, and the fear of death spread among the crowd. They escaped from the flood by luck, but had to face the Bingzhou army's swords and arrows. There was no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground. This was true despair!

After the Bingzhou Army retreated to the highlands, it cut down many trees and laid thousands of rafts overnight. When the flood flooded, these highlands were basically safe and sound. Yang Hu led the infantry battalion to board the raft, went down the river, and arrived again at the city of Xindu.

As expected, it was not beyond Yang Hu's prediction. When the flood flooded Xindu City, most of the people in the city fled to the city wall, which was also their only refuge.

Seeing the black crowd on the inner city wall, Yang Hu showed a slight smile. This kind of crowded military and civilians was definitely not a team that could fight. The Bingzhou army only needed to continuously fire crossbows and bows to easily knock out a hole. The flood at this moment had already flooded most of the city walls, and the Bingzhou army could easily climb to the top of the city without climbing.

However, Yang Hu did not immediately attack the inner city wall, but instead let the raft approach the outer city wall and let the soldiers of the infantry battalion climb onto the outer city wall first.

Compared to the crowded inner city walls, there was no one on the outer city walls. This is not to say that the Jizhou army and the people of Xindu dared not climb up to the outer city walls, but to find that when the flood came, the flood had flooded the open space between the inner and outer city walls, and no one dared to risk their lives to swim through the open space. So when they finally squeezed into the inner city walls, they looked at the empty outer city walls with regret.

However, for the fully armed Bingzhou Army, it doesn't matter whether there is anyone on the outer city wall. If the Jizhou Army had an army stationed in the outer city, they could easily crush it.

The biggest reason why Yang Hu did not launch an attack directly was that most of the people on the Xindu wall are not ordinary people. If he launched an attack hastily at this moment, many innocent people would definitely die.

So Yang Hu took the lead in climbing the outer city and was preparing to shout and persuade the surrender there. If the military and civilians of the Jizhou army were willing to surrender, they would be spared from the suffering of war. If they continued to resist stubbornly, Yang Hu would not give them a chance. Even if they launched a strong attack, they would have to take down Xindu City.

However, now winning the capital city is like taking things out of its bag. Xindu City, which is flooded by the flood, can no longer organize any effective resistance. Yang Hu left them with the last glimmer of vitality. As for whether to cherish it or not, it is their own choice.

After Yang Hu ascended the outer city wall, he first sent several loud soldiers to shout at the inner city wall, persuading surrender, and clearly told the military and civilians of Jizhou to let them lose their fantasies. Now there are only two ways before them, either surrendering to avoid death or being destroyed like the capital of Tongxin. The patience of the Bingzhou army is limited. If they refuse to surrender, the Bingzhou army will launch an attack in an hour and will not give them any chance.

This is the last ultimatum. Yang Hu doesn't want to delay the battle until tomorrow, and he will have to have a result today.

The call from the Bingzhou Army caused a sensation among the people of Jizhou Army and Xindu. For ordinary people and ordinary soldiers, of course, they would choose their own way of life without hesitation. They did not want to bury their lives here. However, before Lu Zhao spoke, no one dared to stand up and say that they wanted to surrender. Because Lu Zhao was still alive, he still held the power of life and death General Zhenbei and the governor of Jizhou. His order was enough to make the leader's head fall to the ground.

So even those who most wanted to surrender remained silent at this moment. No one was willing to be this pioneer. Faced with the round of calls from the Bingzhou Army, the entire inner city wall fell into silence, and the entire inner city wall was silent and deadly silent.

No one knows what to do next. In fact, everyone cherishes their lives particularly. It is precisely because of excessive cherishing that no one dares to take this first step.

Although the Bingzhou Army has repeatedly promised that those who surrender will not die, they are separated by a water area that is wide by an arrow. Without a ferry, they cannot get by even if they surrender.
