The most powerful fool system

　Wang Shichong is giving up now.

　But Wang Shichong is also a hero. Shan Xiongxin died, and he didn't feel much sadness in his heart. What he was really worried about at this time was the safety of Dongdu.

　Wang Shichong knew very well that the main purpose of Xu Feng leading the Sui army to fight this time was to take back the Eastern Capital.

　And Wang Shichong's foundation is all in Dongdu. As long as he can hold Dongdu, he still has a chance to make a comeback.

　If everything is lost, he will be completely finished.

　"Preach my order to bring back all the troops outside.

　At the same time, another [-] young and strong men will be recruited in the city. Yang Guang's stupid lord wants to take back the Eastern Capital unless I die.

　He can't get what I can't get. "

　Wang Shichong's eyes were red at this time, like a crazy gambler, he was going to make the last big gamble.

　In mid-September, Xu Feng led the main force of the Sui army and continued to advance westward after the completion of the army consolidation at Sishuiguan.

　On September [-], the main force of the Sui army arrived outside the eastern capital and surrounded it.

　"Send someone into the city and tell Wang Shichong that I will give him one last chance.

　Immediately Kaesong pleaded guilty and surrendered to me, and I might consider sparing his life.

　Otherwise, when I invade the city, it will be his death. "

　However, Xu Feng was soon disappointed. The envoy he sent into the city was kicked out directly.

　How could Wang Shichong believe Xu Feng's words? In Wang Shichong's mind, Xu Feng at this time is still the cruel and innocent emperor Yang Guang.

　"Hmph, you don't have to drink fine wine if you toast.

　Zhou Yu, let the soldiers set up camp and attack the city tomorrow. "

　Xu Feng snorted coldly, turned his head and said to Zhou Yu.

　"Yes, Your Majesty."

　On the [-]th, more than [-] Sui troops surrounded the eastern capital.

　At this time, Wang Shichong's defenders in the eastern capital had nearly 15 people, and their strength even far exceeded that of the Sui army.

　But among the 15 Zheng troops, half of them were forcibly recruited by Wang Shichong in the last month. They have never even seen blood. They are all recruits, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

　The remaining 7 people are Wang Shichong's real family property.

　"Hmph, the faint-hearted Lord Yang Guang brought so few troops to attack my eastern capital, it's a dream come true."

　When Wang Shichong stood on the top of the city and looked at the Sui army outside the city, he said with a sneer.

　Wang Shichong didn't expect that when Xu Feng led the army to attack Dongdu, there were only so few troops, and there was no large-scale expansion of the army.

　Wang Shichong has absolute confidence in the defense of the Eastern Capital.

　With the tall and solid capital of Edong, and with so many troops in his hands, it would be as difficult as reaching heaven for a mere [-] to [-] Sui troops to enter.

　"Your Majesty, although the Sui army of Faint Lord Yang Guang is small, it is extremely elite. Your Majesty must not be careless."

　At this time, Duan Da whispered to Wang Shichong from behind.

　In fact, Duan Da had already seen the strength of the Sui army in the Battle of Sishuiguan.

　Oh oh oh!

　The horn sounded, and the Sui army was ready to attack.

　"Hey hey hey!"

　In the distance, many Sui army infantry pushed heavy cloud chariots, slowly approaching Dongdu, and more Sui army soldiers around were carrying cloud ladders, pushing shield chariots, and rushed towards Dongdu City.

　"here we go."

　Xu Feng rode on a horse and stood on a mountain ridge, looking at the Eastern Capital City from a long distance, watching many soldiers of the Sui army rushing up, and said in a low voice.

　Xu Feng handed over the command to Zhou Yu for attacking the Eastern Capital this time, but he didn't ask carefully.

　According to Zhou Yu's arrangement, in the battle of Dongdu, they surrounded three gates and one, and did not attack when they flowed out of the east gate, but attacked the west, south and north gates.

　At the same time, the west and north sides are feigned attacks, and the south is the real main direction of attack.

　"Kill!"

　The shouts of killing in the eastern capital shook the sky, and the Sui army began to attack the city.

　It has to be said that Dongdu is worthy of being the largest and strongest city in this era, even the moat outside the city is only ten meters wide.

　The soldiers of the Sui army who attacked the city could not fill up the moat at all, so they could only find a way to build a wooden bridge over the moat.

　After the soldiers of the Sui army crossed this wide moat, they will be greeted by a city wall more than ten meters high.

　It can be said that in this era, it is more difficult than reaching the sky to conquer a big city like the Eastern Capital.

　Unless there is civil strife in the city and the attack is from the inside, otherwise a strong attack from the outside really needs to be filled with human life.

　On the side of the Sui army, because of the experience of attacking the fortified battle at Sishuiguan, the Sui army was more proficient when attacking the Eastern Capital.

　But even so, after a day's attack, the Sui army did not attack the city wall of the Eastern Capital several times. After thousands of casualties, they had to retreat after dark.

　"Haha, is that what Sui Jun is capable of?"

　After the first day of attack, Wang Shichong said with a big smile.

　Wang Shichong was very satisfied with the defense on the first day.

　The solid city defense of the Eastern Capital opened his eyes even more. Wang Shichong is now more confident that he can defend the Eastern Capital,

　Even, Wang Shichong wanted to wait for the Sui army to attack the city exhausted, and launch a surprise attack on the Sui army.

　"Young Lord Yang Guang, continue to attack.

　As long as I stick to it for half a month, it will be my turn to deal with you. "

　Wang Shichong smiled proudly.

　On the second day, the Sui army continued to attack the city, and the siege intensified.

　At the same time, more trebuchets, bed crossbows and a phalanx of [-] archers from the Sui Army also appeared on the stage, showing their power.

　This time, the casualties of the soldiers of the Zheng army guarding the city increased exponentially.

　Wang Shichong also changed his color, and kept his face sullen all day long, paying attention to the battle on the front line.

　One day after the siege, although the Sui army still failed to attack the city, the casualties were a little less than yesterday.

　On the contrary, on the side of Zheng Jun defending the city, the casualties were nearly double that of yesterday, all of which were shot and killed by the Sui army's catapults and archers.

　"Who can tell me why our archers standing on the city wall can't shoot the Sui army's archers outside the city.

　what is this?Why can the archers of the Sui Army shoot so far! "

　In the evening, Wang Shichong summoned his generals and was furious.

　"Your Majesty, the Sui army is using a new kind of bow, which is longer and bigger than the ordinary bow we use. I have seen it at Sishui Pass."

　Seeing Wang Shichong angry, Duan Da stood up and said.

　"A new type of bow? Is there a way to get one?"

　Duan Da shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, even if we got the new type of longbow from the Sui Army, it would be unrealistic to manufacture it in a short time.

　Now, we can only find ways to reduce the casualties of our defenders from the defensive aspect. "

　Duan Da had already faced the uninterrupted rain of arrows from the Sui army in the Battle of Sishuiguan, and had accumulated some experience in coping with it.

　In fact, there is no way to deal with the Sui army's arrow rain covering blows.

　At this time, Duan Da had already summed up several methods at Sishui Pass, one or two of which were very practical.

　"Okay, that's it.

　Duan Da.I will leave the defense of the South City Gate to you tomorrow. "

　Wang Shichong still trusted Duan Da very much, and the most important defense of the south gate was handed over to him.

　"Yes, Your Majesty, I must guard the south gate."

　Duan Da didn't refuse.

Chapter 245

　245 One shot decides the world

　[Seek to collect and subscribe! 】

　On September 21, the Sui army continued to attack the city.

　Wang Shichong gave Duan Da full command of the Zheng army, and Duan Da ordered to collect the door panels of the people in the eastern capital and transport them all to the city wall.

　Using door panels to build partitions effectively resisted the endless rain of arrows from the Sui army.

　Immediately, it became more difficult for the Sui army to attack, and the morale of the people of the Zheng army in the eastern capital increased again.

　The siege lasted for five days, and the Sui army failed to break through the eastern capital.

　Several times, Dian Wei, Li Cunxiao, Xu Chu and other generals led the army together, and they had already attacked the city wall of the Eastern Capital, but they were finally beaten back.

　The solid city defenses of the Eastern Capital were still the biggest obstacle to the Sui army, making it impossible for the Sui army to keep up with it.

　"Your Majesty, we can't continue fighting like this.

　With such a strong attack, the city could not be breached for a long time, and the morale of the soldiers in the army gradually declined.

　If this continues, there will be dire consequences. "

　On this day, Zhou Yu approached Xu Feng and proposed again that he wanted Xu Feng to give up storming the Eastern Capital.

　In Zhou Yu's view, it was not a wise move to storm such a strong city as Dongdu.

　But Xu Feng insisted that he could only command the Sui army to attack the city.

　It's a pity that Zhou Yu is not a god. Even if he is well deployed and commanded effectively, he still cannot make up for Zheng Jun's great advantage of defending the city.

　"I know that tomorrow I will have a way to break the city, you can continue to command the troops to attack the city."

　Xu Feng said indifferently.

　"Yes, Your Majesty."

　Seeing that Xu Feng still didn't listen to his suggestion, Zhou Yu had to back down.

　After Zhou Yu left, Xu Feng turned to a guard behind him and said, "Go, call Sun Zhong and Zhou Qing."

　"Yes."

　Soon, the guard brought Sun Zhong and Zhou Qing.

　The Sun Zhong mentioned by Xu Feng is actually Sun Tugou, but because the name Sun Tugou is too ugly, Xu Feng later named him "Zhong".

　Therefore, Sun Tugou was renamed Sun Zhong.

　As for the other person, Zhou Qing, he was the leader of the fifty elite Sui troops who Xu Feng had found before and was responsible for manipulating and breaking the mortars.

　"Long live Your Majesty!"

　After Sun Tugou saw Xu Feng, he knelt down and saluted, and shouted reverently.

　"Haha, get up."

　"Thank you, Your Majesty."

　"Sun Zhong, how is your 'God's Servant' training?"

　Xu Feng asked Sun Zhong with a smile.

　During this period of time, Xu Feng has not used Sun Zhong's 'God's Servant Army', leaving Sun Zhong time to 'brainwash'.

　Even when they attacked Sishui Pass, it was not their turn to take action.

　But this time, the Sui army attacked Dongdu, and Xu Feng was ready to use them.

　"Returning to Your Majesty, my minister and the eight thousand soldiers under his command will always wait for His Majesty's will, and never frown."

　Sun Zhong roared loudly, with a frenzied expression.

　Xu Feng could see that the fanaticism in Sun Zhong's eyes was not fake.

　At this time, if Xu Feng asked him to commit suicide in front of him, he estimated that Sun Zhong would not have any hesitation.
