In war, casualties are certain, but no soldier wants to die. If he doesn't want to die, the most effective way of self-protection is to kill the other party.

When a soldier faces a vicious opponent who wants to kill him, he can no longer be afraid, nor can he be afraid, because it is useless to be afraid or not. What is placed in front of him is either life or death.

When the door of life and death is open in front of him, everyone will rush to the door of life, and the door of life is the goal that everyone strives for.

At this time, the will of every soldier is unprecedentedly powerful, and this power comes from the desire for life.

Therefore, the flesh and blood body is full of extraordinary power. If it cannot be fatal with one blow, even if the opponent is cut off his hands and feet and the sharp blade penetrates his body, he will fight the last drop of blood, causing the opponent to suffer the maximum damage or even die.

A Han army guarding the city slashed hard on the shoulder of the Han army that was about to climb to the top of the city. The sword was very deep and heavy, and almost cut off one of the arm of the Wu army siege. Unexpectedly, the Wu army seemed to have no idea that it hurt. He jumped hard on the ladder and grabbed the Han army's arm with one hand.

His feet were in the air, and the weight of his whole body sank. The hand that grabbed the Han army did not release it. How could the opponent eat with such a great force? With a scream, he pulled the Han army off the city, and both of them fell to the city at the same time.

Even if he fails to die, he will be killed by the Wu army below.

The desperate struggle inspired everyone's potential. Although the Han army guarding the city had an absolute advantage, they were not at all easy. In one hour, thousands of casualties were killed or killed.

The Wu army suffered greater casualties, roughly estimated that there were at least four or five thousand people. Faced with such casualties, the sound of drums urging war became more and more intense, and the Wu army siege continued to increase. Not only did it not weaken, but it became more and more fierce.

The soldiers who reported the war situation took turns to report the war situation to Chen Li. All the gates of Nanchang City were under the attack of the Wu army. If the Han army relaxed a little, it would not take long to lose the Han army.

The most terrifying thing is the giant siege cars. Hundreds of Wu soldiers braved the rain of arrows on the city and pushed it to the city gate. Those who hid in the three-layer cover were selected archers. They kept shooting arrows at the city to cover the siege cars that were slowly approaching the city gate.

The thick siege hammer hanging in the center was pulled down by the soldiers' force, and the pointed conical hammer as thick as a bucket hit the city gate violently. No matter how strong the city gate was, it would not last long under such a huge impetus. If the city gate was broken, the city would almost lose its head.

The most effective way for the defenders is to shoot the soldiers who control the siege rams first, and then pour tinder oil to burn them. Of course, the siege side would think of a way to restrain themselves. They put heavy armor on the soldiers who control the siege rams, so that ordinary bows and arrows could not be shot and killed.

The impact of "dong dong dong!" followed by the dull sound, as if hitting the chest of the defenders in the city.

The defenders in the city poured a barrel of turbulent oil from above, poured the entire siege cart, and ignited the siege oil with rockets. However, the siege carts were covered with thick cowhide. Although there was fire on it, it was not easy to burn it in a short time.

Chen Li patted He Yanjiang on the shoulder and said, "Kill those who wear heavy armor."

He Yanjiang took a light bow of more than 60 pounds and didn't need to aim at it. He pulled the bow and shot arrows continuously, and each sharp arrow shot into the throats of those people.

Although these heavily armored soldiers were shot to death, the other Wu soldiers continued to control the attacking ram under the cover of their shields.

The Wu army who rushed forward and came to the back died one after another. How could He Yanjiang alone shoot him to death? Chen Li saw that, yes, these fools are not afraid of death today. Okay, let you see the power of the prehistoric world.

He lifted a huge rock that seven or eight people could not lift, shouted, raised it above his head, walked to the position of the siege car, aimed at a hanging iron chain, and threw it away suddenly.

The huge rock fell from it, and its power was so great that it not only broke the iron chain, but also almost smashed several Wu soldiers into meat paste.

Seeing that the siege car was destroyed and could no longer be used, the Wu army below had to flee back in a hurry.

It was not until almost noon that the Wu army called out to withdraw the troops. The Wu army, who had retreated like a tide, threw down the bodies everywhere, held their injured companions, and retreated back to the headquarters under the cover of shooting from catapults and crossbows.

Even the bravest people have to eat and rest. After nearly three hours of war, they both need to replenish their physical strength and replace their weapons, so they have to end the battle.

Chen Li and Zou Pusheng stood on the city, looking at the slowly retreating enemy soldiers, and then looking at the dead bodies under the city and the dead and wounded Han soldiers on the city, they couldn't help but sigh.

Zou Pusheng said: "I have been marching and fighting, sieging cities and plundering land for many years. I have seen many formations, but there are not many such tragic scenes as today."

Chen Li said: "Yes, our soldiers also suffered a lot of casualties. Everyone has tried their best. The Grand Tutor will inform the logistics company and ask them to take out all the good rice and meat for the soldiers to eat."

Zou Pusheng said: "It's better to save some money, as the days ahead are still long."

Chen Li said: "I think Zhu Yuanzhang's formation will never let us stay for a year or two. Maybe he has a more powerful backup plan."

Zou Pusheng was worried and said, "Hundreds of thousands of troops took turns to attack the city. Even if they had no backup, we were very nervous."

Chen Li said: "Go, bring out all the big fish and meat, so that the soldiers can eat it as much as possible. After eating this meal, it is hard to say whether they can eat it next meal. People, it takes more than ten or twenty years to climb out of their womb and grow so big, but only a sharp arrow is needed. In one moment, their lives end here. It's a pity to think about it."

Zou Pusheng sighed: "Yes, it's not easy to grow a life, but death is in an instant. The Han king is kind-hearted, so I will do it now."

Chen Li held the city wall and looked at the Wu army camp in the distance, feeling clueless, and he himself didn't know what to do.

If the city can be kept, what should we do next? But judging from the current situation, Zhu Yuanzhang will not let him live a happy life in the city. If he really follows Zhang Xiaowu's strategy, heading south and retreating to Jinggangshan, would he have to learn how many years he has been to be the king of the mountain?

It’s easy to plan, but it’s a lot of tricks to do, and it’s not enough to take a step away. Think about the past life, wandering around the world, killing people, and playing with beauties after all. It’s so simple. Now, it looks glorious, but now it seems that it’s endless, but it’s endless to do things every day, and there’s no freedom.

An hour later, the Wu army had enough food and replenished their arms, and began to attack the city like crazy. Both sides fought to the death until dark before stopping.
