    PS: Generals know that all deaths are inevitable. Although it is a little late, I still want to say to all readers who are still waiting for the update: I'm sorry.  The war flags are waving, and the war drums are stirring the sky.  Forty thousand Daxing troops were fully armed, each holding a spear and a thick shield, forming a torrent of steel rushing towards the city.  As soon as the flag was waved, the rumbling footsteps suddenly stopped, the rumbling war drums also quietly stopped, and there was silence under Shuofang City, filled with murderous intent.  The momentum formed by the gathering of 40,000 troops was as strong as a mountain, and it enveloped Shuofang City like Mount Tai pressing its top. The soldiers guarding the city only felt a pressure rushing towards their faces, and the entire city trembled in front of these 40,000 troops.  "Hiss!" All the defenders in Shuofang City took a breath of cold air.  The majestic military power of the Daxing Army and the fierce murderous intent filled Shuofang City, and everyone couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in their hearts.  The strength gap between the two sides is a bit big!  Shuofang City is probably in danger!  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  Yan Wu was dressed in gilt armor, the red tassel on the back of his head was swaying in the wind, and he had a hundred-refined sword on his waist. Coupled with his burly body, he looked particularly majestic.  However, Yan Wu's prowess did not bring much sense of security to the soldiers, and the minds of more soldiers had been taken over by the momentum of the Daxing Army.  "Bang!" A Liang Jun soldier was too nervous. He missed his hand and the weapon in his hand slipped quietly. The cold steel hit the city wall, making a crisp sound that echoed in this silent space.  Yan Wu turned around angrily and looked at the cowardly soldier fiercely. He did not expect that his men were so unbearable. Before the Daxing army attacked the city, some people were timid before fighting.  "General, forgive me?" The soldier who slipped his weapon turned pale and quickly knelt down to apologize.  Yan Wu looked at him with hatred, and then looked at the other pairs of eyes full of fear.  After a long time, Yan Wu sighed and shook his head helplessly.  Stepping forward, General Yan picked up the weapons on the ground and handed them back to the soldiers' hands. He reached out and patted the soldiers on the shoulders without any blame.  Yan Wu knows.  Liang Jun's fear of the Daxing Army was no longer a secret among Liang Jun, but this soldier showed it. Even he had no confidence in his heart and didn't know if he could sustain it for how long.  "General! The Daxing Army has been dispatched?" The deputy general pointed at the Daxing Army Camp under the city and shouted loudly, with a hint of undetectable fear in his voice.  Yan Wu¡¯s eyes narrowed.  Looking down the city.  In the Daxing Army, a thousand soldiers slowly walked out of the military formation and headed towards Shuofang City.  "That's not right! If the Daxing Army attacked the city, how could they only dispatch a thousand soldiers?" Yan Wu was confused.  Under the gaze of 20,000 Shuofang soldiers, a thousand soldiers slowly approached Shuofang City. They did not stop until they were ten feet away from the range of Shuofang's crossbows, and stood there in three lines.  Doubts suddenly arose in Yan Wu's heart.  Such a strange formation is unheard of!  What exactly does Yin Shishi want to do?  Just when Yan Wu was suspicious, a huge sound came towards him.  "His Majesty the Third has an order to kill only the chief culprits and surrender to avoid death?" A thousand soldiers shouted at the same time, and the sound spread throughout Shuofang City.  "Only kill the chief culprit, surrender and avoid death?" All Shuofang soldiers couldn't help but feel a move in their hearts, and couldn't help but look at the general Yan Wu in front.  Being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, Yan Wu felt sweat dripping from his palms.  The biggest culprit is of course Liang Shidu, and Yan Wu is certainly one of the culprits. These soldiers who persuaded them to surrender cannot be allowed to be unscrupulous.  "Fire the arrow!" Yan Wu shouted.  Yan Wu has been a general for a year and has always been very prestigious. After giving the order, countless sharp arrows flew down from Shuofang City, covering the sky like locusts.  He pounced straight on the Qian Daxing Army who was trying to persuade him to surrender.  "Poof!" The sound of sharp arrows sinking into the soil is endless.  The counterattack of Shuofang Army seemed amazing, but it did not achieve any results, because the Daxing Army, which persuaded them to surrender, was already outside the shooting range, even if there were a few talented archers occasionally.  It was able to shoot into a thousand Daxing troops, but was easily blocked by the Daxing soldiers with their shields.  Yan Wu was not surprised by this result, because when he ordered the arrow to be released, it was to show his position, that is, his resolute attitude of resistance. This attitude was not only shown to Master Yinshi, but also to Master Liang.  Everyone sees it.  "General! Shuofangcheng refusedsurrender!  "Song Laosheng said, and there was no regret in his tone, but also a touch of joy. Master Yin Shi did not care about Song Laosheng's tone. As a general, it is not a bad thing to look forward to fighting. On the contrary  It would be a sad thing for a general to lose his energy. "Command the army to attack in a quarter of an hour!"  "Master Yin Shi shouted coldly. Regarding Shuofang City's reaction, Master Yin Shi did not show any expression. The effect of these persuading soldiers to surrender was only to shake the morale of Shuofang City's troops. Now it seems that the purpose has been achieved. "Yes!  "Song Laosheng took the order and left. "Dong, dong, dong!" The war drums were beating, and dozens of Daxing soldiers pushed out the huge trebuchet. Around the trebuchet, Daxing soldiers protected the trebuchet with shields, slowly  Approaching Shuofang City ¡°Trebuchet!  "A Shuofang soldier screamed in horror. "This soldier is a veteran. He was a veteran before Liangshi rebelled. He has experienced many wars. He knows better than anyone the power of this big guy under the city.  But it is the most powerful weapon in this era. The other soldiers were also in an uproar. When they heard the words trebuchet, they suddenly thought of the terrifying weapon mentioned by the veterans. They did not expect that they would encounter it so soon.  Many trebuchets were aimed at them, and all the soldiers turned pale. "Fifty-onefifty-twofifty-five."  " Yan Wu counted with a gloomy face, there were fifty-five trebuchets in Daxing's protective role by the soldiers. "Daxing City really values ??Shuofang City!  " Yan Wu's heart was full of bitterness. "This is not the end!  "Master Yin Shi saw Yan Wu's expression on the city wall through the telescope and smiled slightly. "The crossbowmen are out!  "Master Yinshi shouted coldly. With a wave of the command flag, the Daxing army separated again, and a huge phalanx of 5,000 crossbowmen slowly appeared in front of the two armies. "Crossbowman phalanx!  "Yan Wu's face turned pale. "As for Daxing City's crossbow phalanx, Li Yuan had already made it very clear about its power when they formed the alliance. Furthermore, the fragile arms exuded peerless force in the hands of Daxing City, making everyone  The enemy in front of him was frightened. Yan Wu smiled miserably, looking at the few crossbowmen and archers on his side, the gap was too big to win this battle.  "The sounding arrows rushed into the sky, the sharp whistle echoed, and the war officially started. "Peng!  " A burst of dark clouds soared over the Daxing Army position, overwhelmingly rushing towards the city wall. Suddenly Shuofang's soldiers fell on their backs. "Shield, fight back!  "Yan Wu shouted. However, before Yan Wu could finish his words, a soldier suddenly stepped forward and threw Yan Wu to the ground. "Boom!  "A huge sound sounded around him, and the sharp gravel scraped blood marks on Yan Wu's face. Shaking his head, Yan Wu looked sideways and saw that the soldier who threw himself to the ground had been hit by the gravel.  Yan Wu felt a pain in his heart as he saw that he would not survive, but the Daxing Army did not give him time to suffer. Then another wave of trebuchets was prepared, and huge stones were thrown at him with a roar.  To the city wall "Boom!"  ¡± The huge boulder hit the Shuofang city wall with a huge force like a giant hammer. Every time the boulder hit the city wall, all the soldiers would feel the trembling under their feet. Occasionally, one or two boulders hit the city wall, wherever they hit.  , no soldier was spared, and no one was dead. In fact, the trebuchet was not as lethal as the crossbow phalanx, but its terrifying power was enough to scare anyone. Under the cover of the crossbow phalanx and the trebuchet, countless people were killed.  The Daxing soldiers carried their siege tools and rushed towards Shuofang City. The battle lasted for a whole afternoon. In just two hours, Shuofang County was in danger several times and it was only because of Yan Wu's disregard for casualties that it was barely saved at nightfall.  At that time, the Daxing Army finally retreated. Looking at the retreating Daxing Army, all the Shuofang soldiers collapsed on the ground. All the soldiers had no joy in repelling the enemy, because they knew that this day had just begun. After tomorrow, those who threw stones would  The machine and crossbow phalanx will come again. ¡°General!  Our army suffered 4,000 casualties!  "The deputy general reported the results of the battle to Yan Wu. "Four thousand?  "Yan Wu was shocked. There were only 20,000 soldiers in Shuofang City. They occupied the advantage of the city and lost 4,000 soldiers a day. If this rate continues, Shuofang City will have no soldiers available in five days. "Where is the Sui army?  " Yan Wu asked. The deputy general lowered his head and whispered.He said: "The Sui army suffered less than a thousand casualties!" "Less than a thousand?" Yan Wu suddenly became depressed.  After getting the affirmative answer from the deputy general, a strong feeling of powerlessness arose. The gap in strength between Shuofang and Daxing City was really too big.  "Tell the soldiers to rest quickly, there will be a big battle tomorrow!" Yan Wu ordered.  "Yes!" the deputy general whispered.
