Liu Heng really wanted to light up a cigarette right now. Not long after, Wang Yanzhang walked over and sat beside Liu Heng. He said to Liu Heng,"Ziyu, with the current situation, we can't hold this city for three days…"
His tone was as if he was chatting with Liu Heng. It was a great contrast to the tragic and murderous atmosphere on the battlefield.
Liu Heng laughed." Hehe, so what if you can't defend it? You have to take it even if you can't."”
"Ziyu, I've already ordered the 30 warhorses we brought to be on standby in the city. If we really can't hold them, you can immediately ride them away."”
Wang Yanzhang's tone did not change at all.
However, his tone did not have the intention of punishing him. In fact, Liu Heng knew that this was the reason why Pei Yi's uncle gave him 30 good horses. He did not need horses to defend the city. Pei Yi gave him the horses to use if he really could not defend.
Wang Yanzhang smiled and shook his head. The two of them sat on the city wall for a while before Wang Yanzhang said to Liu Heng quietly,"Let's go." Then, he immediately went down the city wall.
Liu Heng looked at the back of his best brother and muttered to himself,""Hehe, how could I not want to go home and lie in my wife's arms immediately?”
After saying that, he turned around and looked into the distance in a daze.
Liu Heng had been sitting in one seat and staring blankly. Someone had brought food over, and Liu Heng and Han Tong also ate together. They ate much more savory than a few days ago.
The next day, the Koreans attacked the city as usual. First, they fired a round of arrows, then they attacked the city. The procedure was exactly the same as the previous day.
Liu Heng was still cursing under the shield. Du Tao had also recruited another 2,000 strong men. It seemed that no matter what period of time the commoners did not tempt him, he would not listen obediently.
Liu Heng looked at the Korean archers through the slits of the shields and was furious. Although these archers would not cause too many casualties, they would cause the morale of the soldiers to drop, making Liu Heng feel extremely aggrieved.
Therefore, at night, the city gate of Wengjin City opened a crack, and a large group of able-bodied men walked out with shovels in their hands. Behind them were the soldiers in the city. They had a mission, and the able-bodied men ran to the position where the Korean archers would stand every day.
This position was very tricky, just outside the shooting range of the archers on the city wall, but the Koreans could reach the city wall with their excellent bows and arrows.
Liu Heng had been furious with the archers for the past two days, so he had taken the risk and ordered the soldiers to dig a big pit where the Korean archers were standing. Then, he poured feces and urine into the pit. It just so happened that there was no place to put the excrement of the civilians and soldiers in Wengjin City.
Moreover, Liu Heng was not afraid that the Koreans would suddenly attack. He thought that the Koreans would definitely be Koreans. He did not know what the art of war was. Moreover, the location of the pit was not far from the city gate. If he saw the Koreans attacking and immediately ran back, he should be able to run back.
On the third day, the Han army still came to attack the city. Two days ago, they had all returned in defeat. The commander was very angry and ordered his subordinates to attack Wengjin today. Otherwise, he would kill a few people to relieve his boredom.
This time, the commander of the Korean army was the First Prince of Baekje. This time, the Korean army was formed by the Silla people and the Baekje people. Silla, Baekje, and Gaya had always been city-states in history. In addition, they were allied forces, so the quality of the soldiers was uneven.
Their alliance army had lost nearly 5,000 men in the past two days, so the commander-in-chief was very depressed. Now that they knew the number of defenders in the city, their soldiers were more than ten times the number of defenders, but they could not take them down. A few days ago, they had been very relaxed when they attacked Yangde and Yongqing. They did not expect to lose so many people in just two days after arriving at Wengjin.
The commander-in-chief, Prince Zhen Cheng, was shouting at the people below,"You bunch of trash, you can't even take down a small Weng Jin City. How do you want me to answer to my father? I'll tell you that if you can't take it down today, you'll all be burned to death!”
On the surface, the Korean leaders under him obeyed Zhen Cheng's commands, but they secretly hated him. This Zhen Cheng was actually a second generation heir. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the eldest son of the most powerful city lord of Bai Ji City, and that the city lord of Bai Ji City was also the king elected by the people of Bai Ji, this second generation heir Zhen Cheng might not even be able to find a place to beg for food.
Beside him was the First Prince of Silla, Jin Huang. This time, because Baekje had sent out more troops, and Baekje itself was stronger than Silla, it was Zhen Cheng's turn to be the commander.
Jin Huang also felt that this Zhen Cheng was a very stupid commander. Every time he fought, he would always hide at the back. However, he had no choice but to persuade him from the side,"Brother Zhen, this isn't the fault of these leaders. The defenders of Wengjin City are completely different from the ones we encountered in Yangde Yongqing. They are very brave and fearless. They don't have many injured people, and they still fight very bravely even though they are injured.”
"Hmph, I don't care. I don't believe that we can't take down a city with so many people!" Zhen Cheng said angrily.”
In Wengjin City, Liu Heng was still waiting for the Koreans to attack. However, what was more important to Liu Heng was not the Koreans who were coming, but the lack of supplies in Wengjin City. He did not know that food was the supplies for the army to defend the city.
There weren't many supplies left. After today, there would probably be a shortage of kerosene and stones. After a while, the Korean army slowly came over. They were led by archers, but when the Koreans came over, they were dumbfounded. They were faced with holes, and there was still feces and urine inside.
Liu Heng was very particular about the pits he dug. The pits were not very big and were arranged one by one. However, only three or four people could stand between two pits. Then, there was the next pit. The Korean archers could not arrange them at all. Moreover, the pits were filled with feces and urine, and they could not fill the pits.
Liu Heng looked at the stunned Han soldiers below the city wall and laughed heartily. The soldiers at the side looked at him with admiration. The battle had already reached this stage, and the general was still able to laugh. He really had a big heart.
Liu Heng had something to do, so he actively fought. This battle was very fierce, and Zhen Cheng had given a death order, so the Han people were also very desperate. There were already a few times when the Han people had attacked the city wall.
Liu Heng shouted and charged at the enemies who had already reached the top of the city wall. The 200 people in the city also rushed over to support Liu Heng's defense.
Liu Heng knew that the four gates were in danger, but because he was the commander, he received the " generous treatment " of the Koreans.
"Hey!" Liu Heng's path collided with the enemy's. Liu Heng's saber techniques were even inferior to the soldiers in his own camp. However, under such circumstances, if even he, the general, was afraid of death and did not dare to attack, then even if you had more people, you would still lose this battle.
Han Tong saw that Liu Heng was already fighting with the enemy, so he immediately came over to help Liu Heng.
At first, Liu Heng killed a few people in a row with his momentum. However, as time went by, Liu Heng's stamina began to run out. When he wasn't paying attention, Liu Heng's shoulder was slashed by the enemy.
Liu Heng turned around and cursed,"F * ck, you son of a bitch!"”
As soon as he finished speaking, he slashed the man's neck. Blood spurted out from the Korean's blood vessels like a fountain, splattering all over Liu Heng's face. Liu Heng hurriedly sheathed his knife.
