In Jiankang City, Hu Hai and Feng Huan were taking more than 10,000 troops and relied on the dangers of the palace city in Jiankang Lake to make their final resistance. [*you]

A day ago, when Hu Hai received the imperial edict to withdraw him from the quarry, he was still a little unwilling to accept it. Jiankang's inner and outer cities had been taken down, but there was only one city left in the middle of the lake. It was only half a day before he could take it down. How could he be willing to retreat at this time? In order to wait for Feng Hua and his daughter to meet, he led 10,000 people to stay in Jiankang.

When Li Chengyi and others led their troops to leave, he immediately launched an attack on the Palace City in the heart of the lake. The Palace City in the heart of the lake is built in the center of Xuanwu Lake, surrounded by lake water, only a ten-mile-long imperial road is connected, and there is also a nine-level palace gate on the imperial road. It means that it is a real one man who is at the gate, and ten thousand men cannot open it.

However, Hu Hai was determined to take down the palace city in the center of Hu, so although the officials and nobles of Chen who hid in the city fought to the death, they only lasted for a short period of time, and were finally captured by Hu Hai.

However, Hu Hai, who captured the entire Jiankang City and successfully rescued the Supreme Emperor and the royal family, had only had time to be happy for a while, and received extremely bad news. Feng Hua, the father and daughter, who went south to search for the main force of the Wu army, came back, but when they went south, they brought 20,000 local troops, but when they came back, they brought only less than 8,000 defeated soldiers.

The information brought back with the eight thousand defeated soldiers was also the information that Shen Luoyan led his army to appear in Yuhang.

The two armies met in Jiankang City. Before they could breathe, Hu Hai was about to escort the Supreme Emperor to retreat to quarry. Countless Wu troops suddenly appeared outside Jiankang City. They were under the banner of Huainan Marshal Du Fuwei. There were even more enemies. According to the Ma Lai report, Du Fuwei led a total of 70,000 troops to surround Jiankang City.

The defeated troops of Hu Hai and Feng Huan totaled less than 20,000 troops, and the army of 70,000 surrounded the city.

Jiankang City is indeed tall and sturdy, but there are too many gates in Jiankang City. It is easy to defend more soldiers and horses, but it is difficult to defend less soldiers and horses.

The eighteen gates of the outer city, the thirteen gates of the inner city, plus the nine gates of the outer wall of the palace city, and the nine gates of the imperial road in the lake. Together, there are 49 gates. It is undoubtedly very difficult to defend so many gates with less than 20,000 troops. What's more, Hu Hai and the others are still fighting away. The people in Jiankang City are not on their side.

As soon as Du Fuwei led his troops to the city of Jiankang, he immediately besieged Jiankang, and he knew that he was not going to let anyone go. In fact, he did the same. After the troops surrounded Jiankang, he immediately launched a siege. He did not stop for a moment, and there was no stop in the middle.

Even in the face of Hu Hai and his friends' defensive defense, the Huainan army kept attacking fiercely without regard for casualties. The eighteen gates of the outer city had been lost for a whole day, and in less than half a day, the eighteen gates of the inner city had been lost.

In the end, Hu Hai and the others left only more than 7,000 people retreated to the city of Huxin, and relying on the dangers of Xuanwu Lake to hold on step by step. However, they had to hold on for two days, and at this time they were almost in a state of rolling swords and arrows, hunger and physically and mentally exhausted.

The blood stained with the robe, and several wounded Hu Hai knelt in the hall, and said to the Supreme Emperor Chen Shen, who was in the dragon chaise in the hall, "Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor, the last general is incompetent, and the palace city will not be able to be defended for long. The last general is ready. After a while, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor put on the uniform of the Wu army's soldiers. Feng Huan and Feng Ang will take a small team of elite soldiers to leave from Xuanwu Lake on a boat at night. Xuanwu Lake can have a river channel that leads to the Yangtze River, and then His Majesty the Supreme Emperor can retreat to Jiangbei. As long as you arrive in Jiangbei, you will be worry-free!"

"What about General Hu and other soldiers?" Chen Shen sat on the dragon throne, his face full of calmness and gray hair. He seemed to be unable to see any panic and fear. Perhaps for him, he had experienced too many such moments in his life. He was destroyed when he was young, and was almost exiled to Hexi for decades after becoming an adult. His son rebelled and imprisoned him, and was rescued by his old subordinates and supported his country, but in the end he was placed under house arrest. His life was a legend and a humiliating history.

"Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor, the last general will hold on until the end and be the rear of Your Majesty."

When Hu Hai said this, a sudden feeling arose. The Huainan Army outside Jiankang City had already made him understand that everything was indeed as His Majesty the Emperor said. Because of his unauthorized actions, Chen Luoyan finally set up a trap for this and plotted against the entire Chen army in Jiangdong. All of this was because of him. Because of his unauthorized dispatch of troops and his greed for merits and reckless progress, he had such a result of losing his troops and ruining the country.

At this point, he no longer dared to ask for forgiveness from the emperor. He only hoped that he could die on the battlefield in the end and atone for his sins with one death.

"Please make a decision quickly, we won't be able to hold on for long." Hu Hai reminded.

Seeing that Chen Shen was still hesitating, Feng Ang, who was standing beside him, immediately said: "Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor, you will not only not increase morale to the soldiers, but will not only make the soldiers worry and affect their combat effectiveness. What's more, if the city is broken and His Majesty falls back into the hands of Shen Luoyan, then His Majesty will become their bargaining chip for them to confront His Majesty the Emperor. If His Majesty leaves, this will actually make the soldiers have no worries and will not give Chen Ni a chance to threaten them. What's more, when you go north, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor can be reunited with His Majesty the Emperor. What a family pleasure, Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor. Don't hesitate anymore."

Chen Shen hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement. Because the matter was urgent, he only escorted Chen Shen this time, but he did not bring Empress Chen and Young Prince, whom he had previously named, did not bring them. Chen Shen wanted to bring them with him, but he mentioned that Hu Hai, Feng Ang and others did not respond, so he already knew what they were thinking. Empress Chen was the cousin of the original Empress, but he was also from the Shen clan. Although the young prince was young, he actually had a conflict with his son Chen Pojun.

Chen Shen was escorted out of the hall under Feng Ang and others. When Feng Hua was about to leave, Hu Hai chased forward and said, "No matter what happens, please escort the Supreme Emperor back to Jiangbei!" For Hu Hai, this may be the most meaningful thing he did in Jiangdong this time.

Feng Hua nodded: "I will fulfill my mission!"

In addition to giving instructions to Feng Hua, Hu Hai also gave instructions to the members of the young couple who broke through this time. For the sake of secrets, in addition to Chen Shen and Feng Hua, the father and daughter of the breakout, there were also eighteen extraordinary lieutenants. These people not only had good martial arts skills, but also the best middle-level officers under Hu Hai's subordinates. He could not bear to have these people die here, and hoped that they could make new contributions after breaking through.

Looking at the gradually fading back, Hu Hai sighed in his heart. All he could do is this. I hope that when the emperor holds responsibility for this future, he can treat his family kindly because of his saving the Supreme Emperor.

As soon as Hu Hai walked out of the hall, a messenger rushed over. "Governor, the Wu army has already broken through the city outside the lake. They have built a batch of wood cuts. They did not attack the Nine Gate of the Imperial Road, but directly killed the palace city in the middle of the lake. At present, they have broken through Jian'an Gate to the west of the island city, and hundreds of people have attacked in."

Hu Hai jumped his feet and cursed, and quickly jumped onto the war horse. He knew that this would happen, but he didn't expect that Wu Jun was so fast.

Although it is traditionally necessary to pass the ten-mile imperial road to climb the city of Huxin, now it is time to attack the city, and the enemy will not follow the rules. They are now directly riding on wood. There is also a circle of besieged cities along the water surrounding the city of Huxin, and there are nine gates. He did not expect that the Wu army would capture a city gate so quickly.

Hu Hai led the guards to pass directly from the center of the palace. The island in the middle of the lake was not small, and there were 9,999 palaces. However, the entire palace was already martial law, and those who retreated into the palace had long been searched and detained. The remaining palace maids and eunuchs in the original palace, as well as the Chen clans under house arrest, were also placed in some halls. At this time, the streets of each palace gate were completely empty and silent.

The iron hooves of the war horse stepped on the palace road covered with bluestone, and Dada made a sound. Because of this, Hu Hai was able to arrive at Jian'anmen Square as fast as possible. When he arrived at Jian'anmen Square, there were countless corpses hidden on the streets inside Jian'anmen Square, and they could not tell the difference between the enemy and us. At least thousands of corpses were piled up within the small city gate.

However, the situation at Jian'anmen Square was fine. With the counterattack of Chen's army, they finally fought to regain Jian'anmen Square. However, at this time, more and more soldiers of the Wu army had already boarded wooden cuttings to board the island outside Jian'anmen Square, and even formed a shield formation.

Under the cover of the shield array, more and more Wu troops were rushing towards Jian'anmen.

"Bang!"

Jian'anmen shaking. I don't know when the Wu army actually brought a siege and was slamming Jian'anmen.

"Damn it." Hu Hai got angry, and they had already shot out of their arrows in the city. Facing the Wu army under the city, there was no other way except to demolish the house and get stones and wood. But the houses in the palace were too tall and it was far from enough to demolish them.

"It's not a solution to wait like this. Let's go out and drive all the dogs to the lake to feed the fish." Hu Hai waved his long spear and roared, and the big scar on his face was even more purple and ferocious.

Su Lie said carefully, "Governor, the last general thinks it is better to stick to the city. The enemy forces are numerous and cannot kill them all. If you are not careful, the city gate may be lost. We have already left the city to kill three times before, and it will take less than a moment for the Wu army to accumulate again. But we can't do it, and each death is one less. Let's just stick to it. Maybe your Majesty will arrive after holding on for another one or two days."

Hu Hai was already completely aroused his ferocity at this time. The General Yuan Zuo, who had been following the emperor since the beginning, had fought too many battles in those most difficult years. At this time, facing a group of soft-footed Jiangdong shrimps that he had never looked down on, he was forced to do so, and the fire in his heart went up. And this time he had already determined that even if he survived by chance in the future, he would not be able to escape the emperor's punishment.

Under this mentality, he has more of a mentality of seeking death, and a desire to die vigorously on the battlefield.

"Go to him, my mother's Wu army. Open the door and let them in, and we will surround and kill! I want to see if the Wu army is coming soon, or we can kill quickly. Brothers, maybe this is our last battle. Kill one is enough money, kill two and earn one. What's the terrible thing about death? Even if you die, it's just a corpse. Your family will be taken care of by Your Majesty and the court. Anyway, you will die as soon as you die, and kill one is enough money!"

"Kill enough, die happily!" These proud Chen army soldiers were at the end of their lives and forced no way out, and they all burst out with the deepest ferocity in their hearts. These soldiers who experienced countless life and death had a vicious aura hidden in their hearts. At this time, they were completely released without any scruples.

"Squeak!"

Jian'an Gate slowly opened. The Wu army, who were pushing the attacking ram outside, could not defend themselves, and directly pushed the attacking ram into the city. The Wu soldiers under the shield behind thought that the attacking ram was effective, and broke through the city gate. They immediately shouted and raised their shields and rushed into the city with their swords.

In a moment, hundreds of Wu soldiers rushed into the city, but they had not been happy for a long time. Suddenly, countless spears roared and took dozens of Wu soldiers' lives in an instant. Then a shocking roar sounded, and countless Chen soldiers around him rushed over with steel knives and spears. The Buddha should kill the Buddha, and the gods blocked the gods.

Hu Hai seemed to have entered a state of madness at this time. His armor had been taken off. In early winter, he was wearing only a pair of calf shorts, naked with scarred chests, two strong thighs, and holding a bright light in both hands. The huge and enlarged version of the Modao was.

With a sword in hand, you will have the tendency to look down on the world.

Hu Hai held the knife in both hands, but the big Mo knife weighing dozens of pounds was lifted lightly. Every time he took a step, Hu Hai shouted at the word "kill".

Waving the knife with both hands, cutting horizontally and vertically, there was no enemy that could be combined. The Wu army was much weaker than the northern men, not to mention that Hu Hai was a general with a hundred enemies. A sword in his hand, slashing left and right, cutting horizontally and vertically. The blocker was covered with slough.

In a moment, at least ten people died at Hu Hai's hands, and they were all terrifying in death. They were either split in half or cut into two pieces, not even a complete corpse. When they reached the back, Hu Hai's eyes were completely red, and he would chop him as soon as he saw him, and as soon as he encountered him.

Gradually, the shouts of killing around him gradually stopped. Looking around, there was no other Wu Jun soldiers with red armor except for the black armor. Shaking his head, Hu Hai saw that Chen Jun soldiers around him looked at him with a strange look on his face, and couldn't help but shout: "What about those damn Wu Jun?"

Su Lie, whose blood dyed the robes red, walked forward with a smile on his face: "Governor, good news. Your Majesty's reinforcements have arrived. It was just a loud noise outside for a long time, but you, the Governor, are red and turn a blind eye."

"What, Your Majesty has arrived?" Hu Hai was stunned, a little disbelief.

"It's true that Your Majesty has arrived. And they have defeated the two armies of Shan Xiongxin and Sun Shihan and Chen Guoren, and recaptured Caishi. They just chased and killed the defeated troops of the Zhennan Army and rushed outside Jiankang City. His Majesty's army attacked three times, and Du Fuwei was completely defeated. I heard that the loud noise I heard before was our navy's artillery and assisted on the Yangtze River. After a few rounds of artillery bombarded the Wu army, they were shocked. Then they were defeated immediately after being rushed by His Majesty's horse steps."

Hu Hai still had a look of disbelief, but after looking at the countless corpses outside Jian'an Gate, he couldn't help but believe it a little after seeing no other Wu army soldier.

"This is over? Your Majesty, I have to apologize to Your Majesty." Hu Hai, who saved his life, did not feel relaxed, but felt a little heavier.

"Your Majesty has left the old Marshal Li Benlei to take charge of Jiankang, responsible for attacking the Wu army at Jingkou and clearing out the collapsed Wu army. Your Majesty has led most of the troops to chase Du Fuwei, Shan Xiongxin and others, and killed to the south. Your Majesty sent an order to let us rest for a while, and immediately lead our headquarters to go south to meet with Your Majesty. This time, Your Majesty will wipe out Jiangdong in one fell swoop, completely defeat the Wu army, and take down Jiangdong!"

Hu Hai was also happy and surprised when he heard this news. It was a joyful thing that although there were many twists and turns in Jiangdong this time, it seemed that the court had also recovered the entire Jiangdong in advance due to his unauthorized actions. But one code was one code. Although the court recovered Jiangdong and was spared from being plotted by the fallen geese. However, all this was the emperor's credit, and his responsibility was still inevitable.

"Hurry, send someone to recover the two General Feng and ask them to escort His Majesty back." Since the emperor has arrived and has defeated Du Fuwei, there is naturally no need to send the Supreme Emperor to Jiangbei again.

"Don't worry, I've arranged someone to go long ago." Su Wei said with a smile. Just a moment ago, they thought they were dead, but they didn't expect that after a moment, they not only did not die, but instead stood here as the revenger of Jiankang City. Not to mention the feeling in their hearts, it was an indescribable feeling of surviving the disaster.

"Governor, when will we set out?"

"Of course, we should set off immediately, send orders to gather the entire army, and immediately deliver Jiankang City to the old Marshal Li Benlei. After we immediately replenish supplies from the Marshal, we will set off south to meet with His Majesty." Hu Hai said loudly.

Although the Wu army on the direction of Caishi and Jiankang were defeated and fled, they were still defeated and fled, not annihilated, or even severely injured. These soldiers were not afraid of being separated, but once they gathered together, and with the strategy-oriented woman who was good at strategy, it was still a big trouble.

Moreover, the disaster caused this time is endless. Hu Hai just wants to arrive at the emperor as soon as possible, perform well, and strive to redeem his sins.

However, except for Hu Hai, the other soldiers did not have so many worries. In their opinion, they fought Qianli this time, first broke Jiujiang, and then fought Jiangdong. In the end, they captured Jiankang and rescued the Supreme Emperor. This achievement could not be erased. Now the moment of hard work has passed, and everyone was looking forward to how the emperor would reward them next.

Is it wealth or land, or an official position, or a title?

The Chen army soldiers who had fought for the rest of their lives hurriedly after completing the supply in Li Benlei's camp in the city, they immediately left the city quickly, with high morale all the way, flags flying, and swords and guns chasing towards the south with swords and guns.
