Chapter 244: Intense Battle [Two in One](2/3)

Fight hard?

"The Chu army is attacking!"

A Wei soldier exclaimed.

Zhou Ji subconsciously turned around and took a look. Sure enough, he saw about ten feet away from him. There were about seven or eight enemy soldiers who were a mixture of grain recruits and national defenders. They climbed up the long siege ladder and took the responsibility.

The Wei soldiers defending that area were forced to retreat continuously.

The soldiers are too tired...

Zhou Ji clenched his fists.

In normal times, let alone the ragtag army of grain and soldiers, even the soldiers of the state who also wear armor forged in Wei are generally weaker than the soldiers of Wei. Even the soldiers of Wei in Daliang City cannot actually compete with the Yanling Army and the Shangshui Army.

, can be compared with the elite soldiers who frequently go out to fight, such as the anti-rebel army, but after all, the Imperial Guard is also called the King's Division, how could they neglect training?

However, the consecutive days of fighting greatly consumed the physical strength of the soldiers of the Imperial Guard, so that they gradually showed signs of fatigue, allowing the coalition forces outside the city to finally attack the city wall.

"Besiege and kill the enemy soldiers who are attacking the city wall!"

Zhou Ji shouted sharply.

Immediately, the Wei soldiers on the wall rushed to that area and killed the seven or eight soldiers who had attacked the wall.

But even so, Zhou Ji's frown could not relax.

Because he knew very well that since the soldiers of the coalition soldiers under the city could attack the city wall once, they could attack the second time.

"Cheer up!"

Zhou Ji walked out of the city tower area and prepared to patrol the city wall in person to cheer on and boost the morale of these soldiers who fought bloody battles.

"Brothers, the city under your feet is Daliang, where the old royal capital of the Wei Dynasty was located! Can you tolerate the soldiers of the enemy country breaking through this city, looting and humiliating it wantonly?"

"...If you kill one enemy soldier, you will be rewarded with one silver coin; if you kill 500 enemy generals, you will be rewarded with one coin; if you kill 1,000 enemy generals, you will be rewarded with five coins, and you will be promoted to one level.

; Killing three thousand people will..."

For half an hour, Zhou Ji and the generals under his command tried their best to boost morale on the city wall. However, the Wei soldiers on the city wall were too tired. Even with money and military positions as incentives, the intensity of defense was unavoidable.

Gradually weaken.

Just when Zhou Ji was worried, a small official sent by Chu Shuli, the governor of Daliang Mansion, found him and said to him: "General Zhou, my master ordered me to give this to the general."

With that said, the little official handed a memorandum to Zhou Ji.

At this time, Zhou Ji was not in the mood to read anything, so he impatiently took the letter and glanced at it.

However, after just a quick glance, he could no longer look away and stared at the text, his face flushed with excitement.

"Surprisingly, unexpectedly..."

After muttering a few words to himself, he clenched his fists excitedly, wishing he could look up to the sky and scream to express the joy in his heart.

Excited, he shouted to the Wei army generals beside him: "Brothers, cheer! Luoyang has not given up on us. The imperial court has sent reinforcements, and the strength may exceed 200,000. And you are waiting for tens of thousands."

I can’t even imagine who the commander-in-chief of this support army is…that is General Tian of Tiance Mansion!”

"Are reinforcements coming?"

"Those bastards in Luoyang are finally willing to send reinforcements..."

"By the way, who is General Tian?"

"Is there any general in our Wei Dynasty who has been granted the title of General?"

Although learning that Luoyang had sent as many as 200,000 reinforcements, the Wei soldiers on this section of the city wall were greatly encouraged and their morale also improved.

But how do they know the identity of General Tiance Mansion?

After all, the people who know that General Tiance of Tiance Mansion is Zhao Run, the monarch of their Wei Kingdom, the civil servants are at least ministers of the court, and the generals are basically three thousand generals and above. After all, the monarch of a country leads his own

Officials in the Wei court also felt a little embarrassed about the position of general, so naturally they would not do more publicity.

Seeing that the soldiers and generals under his command were looking at him in confusion and not as excited as he imagined, Zhou Ji immediately reacted and corrected him loudly: "General Tian, ​​is my Majesty the King of Wei! Are you waiting?

You heard me wrong, he is the monarch of the Wei Dynasty!"

"Jun..."

"His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty will personally lead the reinforcements to support our beam?"

"How is this possible..."

The Wei soldiers on the city wall looked at each other, dumbfounded.

Immediately, after a moment of silence, the guardsmen near the city tower suddenly burst into cheers that seemed to resound throughout the world.

"Whoa whoa!"

Seeing this, Wei general Zhou Ji pulled out his sharp sword and shouted loudly: "Brothers, Your Majesty will lead reinforcements to Daliang in the near future. Do you want Your Majesty to see a broken Daliang?"

"No!" the Wei soldiers shouted loudly.

Seeing this, Zhou Ji pointed his sword forward and shouted loudly: "In this case, don't let any enemy soldier attack the city! ... The final victory of this war will definitely belong to me, the Wei Dynasty!"

"Whoa whoa!"

The morale of the Wei soldiers on the city wall suddenly skyrocketed to an incredible level.

These Wei soldiers may not know much about the previous monarchs of the Wei Kingdom, but the contemporary monarch Zhao Run is a hero they have heard of for a long time. Whether he led the army on an expedition at the age of fourteen or ascended the throne as the king at the age of twenty-four,

Anecdotes, or the great achievements of sweeping through all the countries in the Central Plains without a single defeat so far, all of which highlight the majestic strategy of this heroic leader.

And this unrivaled hero is now leading an army of 200,000 people to rush to support Daliang. When he thinks of this, whether it is the Wei soldiers fighting on the front line on the city wall, or the people under the city wall helping to deliver arrows.

The people who were rolling the logs all felt energetic, as if they had endless strength all over their bodies.

After that, no soldiers from the allied forces of the various countries could attack the city again, and they were all blocked back by the highly motivated Wei soldiers.

Seeing this, the generals of Chu and Wei who were commanding the battle outside the city were extremely surprised.

"It's strange. Wei Jun's resistance has become weaker and weaker just now, so suddenly..."

A Chu general muttered to himself.

A moment later, in Chu's main formation, Chu Shuijun, who was watching the battle, also vaguely noticed the changes in the defending Wei soldiers on the opposite city, and frowned slightly.

The morale of the Wei army seemed to rise all of a sudden...

He felt something wasn't right.

Logically speaking, the morale of the Wei soldiers in Daliang City should have dropped after two days of fighting for more than ten hours. Even if the Wei generals and officials in the city used money and official positions to stimulate the morale of the soldiers, they would not let the Wei soldiers' morale drop.

The morale must have been so high all of a sudden.

Yes, even though they were far away, he could still hear the powerful roars of Wei's soldiers, and these roars contained a strong sense of surprise and excitement that puzzled him.

"Go and ask what's going on."

Lord Chu Shui ordered the soldiers behind him.

"Yes!" The soldier rode away, and soon after about a stick of incense, he left and returned. He cupped his hands and clasped his fists and replied to Chu Shuijun: "Your Majesty, all the generals of our army below the city are also

I don’t know what happened specifically, but they heard the Wei soldiers shouting about the imperial commander personally marching."

"Is the emperor going to conquer it personally?"

Chu Shuijun had an expression of astonishment on his face, which was soon replaced by a look of ridicule.

He shook his head and said with a smile: "The Wei generals in the city can be said to have fantastic ideas. They actually came up with such ridiculous words to boost morale..."

To save people by himself, he did not believe that the monarch of Wei State, Zhao Run, would lead a personal expedition. After all, he had a full 1.5 million troops under his command. Even though he suffered heavy losses in the past two days in order to attack Daliang, those lost troops were at best

There will be no more than 100,000 people, and the coalition forces of other countries still maintain an absolute advantage in strength.

As for Wei Guo's Luoyang side, how many troops do they currently have? Fifty thousand? One hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand?

Even if the Wei State can barely scrape together 500,000 troops, so what? The 500,000 troops that are cobbled together like this do not have the combat effectiveness of the Yanling Army and the Shang Shui Army, which are the elites of the Wei State.

That is to say, the Chu State only had enough food and troops to raise troops. With more than 1.4 million troops against Wei State's 500,000 troops, and the strength of the two armies was almost the same, Chu Shuijun did not think that Wei State had any chance of winning.

The monarch of Wei State, Zhao Run, was also a smart man. I believe he also knew this. How could he really take the lead in his personal expedition?

Just when Chu Shuijun was secretly sneering, a personal guard suddenly said in his ear: "Your Majesty, Lord Zhangyang, Xiong Zheng sent people here, saying that he has an urgent military report... Where is he?"

After saying that, the guard pointed somewhere.

Chu Shuijun turned around and took a look, and saw a dozen cavalrymen blocked by his own soldiers.

"Let them in."

"yes!"

After a while, the dozen or so cavalrymen came forward, dismounted, and knelt on the ground in salute. One of them held up a baggage and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chu Shui, yesterday there were several groups of Wei cavalry who wanted to break through the obstacles of our army.

Our army found this object among the corpses of some Wei soldiers, and my Lord ordered me to deliver this object to you immediately."

Chu Shuijun's left and right men came forward to take the baggage and handed it to the former.

I saw Chu Shuijun unfolding his baggage, and then he frowned and found that there was actually a stack of memoranda inside the baggage.
To be continued...
