Chapter 155
The moment Yun Chuiren had just set foot on the top of the city, a eunuch had already spread the news to the palace immediately.

"The city is broken?" King Nanfeng was shocked, and fell down on the throne.

"Go back to the king, the city is not broken. Only a small number of Yunchui people attacked the top of the city."

King Nanfeng glanced expressionlessly at the eunuch who delivered the order.

Is there any difference?

"Your Majesty," Pei Ruhai comforted him.

"On the first day of attacking the city, the enemy's morale is always the highest. Although Yun Chui is arrogant and unreasonable, the siege equipment is indeed more advanced than mine. In addition, the major border guards have strict discipline. It is not too surprising that they can attack the top of the city."

His words changed.

"But it is the will of the enemy and us to fight. No matter how good the weapon is, it will not play a big role among soldiers who have no faith."

"Our soldiers are defending the country. Behind everyone are the parents of the family and the country. There is no way to retreat. They will fight bravely to kill the enemy and die."

"The people from Yunchui came all the way to invade Nanfeng, just to satisfy the selfishness of Wei Junqian and Yuan Xingwen. The soldiers must be dissatisfied."

"They had no choice but to attack my capital with swords on their bodies. But sooner or later, they will lose their stamina. As long as my defenders persist for a few quarters of an hour, the enemies who have been unable to attack for a long time will have to retreat..."

King Nanfeng seemed to have never heard of it.

He has heard similar words these days countless times, and his ears are almost growing calluses.

He is not stupid to be the lord of a country, and he knows that these are just comforting words.

Just listen to it, don't take it seriously.

"Has there been news from the envoys from the north?" he asked.

If you want numbers but no numbers, no weapons if you want weapons, and no morale if you want morale, the city probably won't be able to defend.

Now the only one who can break the siege of Dingcheng in Song Dynasty is Emperor Changxing who is far away in Xingji City.

As long as Emperor Changxing speaks, maybe he can continue to keep the throne of Nanfeng like his grandfather for more than 40 years.

The whole hall was dead silent.

After a long while, there was a creaking voice to answer: "Go back to the king, Mr. Li has just set off for half a month. It is a long way to Xingji City, and it is estimated that we have only walked halfway."

Ugh.

In fact, King Nanfeng knew this well, and his head lowered for a while.

The long distance is one aspect, and it also depends on whether the sea route is blocked by Xiyu and Canglan County.

If, like before, the envoys encountered "pirates" shortly after setting out to sea, they probably would never reach Xingji City.

"Report! The military situation in the north of the city."

The voice of the Imperial Guard suddenly sounded outside the hall, his tone full of panic and disbelief.

Everyone in the hall jumped in unison.

King Nanfeng even stood up subconsciously, staring at the entrance of the main hall with burning eyes.

A soldier with a bloody face rushed in, "Your Majesty, General Cai died in battle! There is chaos in Beicheng."

Everyone's face changed greatly.

Pei Ruhai swallowed, and asked with regret, "I wonder which General Cai it is?"

"General Cai Juncai, commander of the imperial army!"

thump!
King Nanfeng was dizzy for a while, and fell back to the throne again.

The Imperial Army guards the palace city, and the emperor's wealth and life are in the hands of the commander, which shows the importance of the commander of the Imperial Army.

More than a dozen generals defending the city, large and small, are still unable to get out of the prison due to the previous rape incident.Only Cai Jun has never been touched, and the relationship between the monarch and his ministers can be seen.

It can be said that Cai Jun is the last hole card and barrier of King Nanfeng.

However, it was only the first day of Yunchui's siege. To be precise, within three hours, Cai Jun's hole card had been wiped out.

How to do?
Everyone, including King Nanfeng, had their heads rumbling, and they couldn't help but look to the south.

Only Pei Ruhai's face remained unchanged, he comforted everyone for a while, and then asked calmly: "What's going on, why did General Cai die suddenly?"

"It's like this." The soldiers who sent the order had no choice but to say everything.

Beichengtou.

When Yun Chui's soldiers rushed to the top of the city like a tide, the surroundings began to be chaotic.

Fortunately, Xiong Kaishan, who is one man in charge and ten thousand men incapable of opening, stood up.

He danced the huge mace vigorously, blocking the way of the little soldiers of Yunchui.

But it's just blocking the way.

Under the leadership of Xiong Kaishan, Nan Feng was able to advance a few feet occasionally, but was quickly pushed back by the Yunchui people.

Bang bang bang bang!

Large and small weapons collided, making harsh and unpleasant sounds.Both sides were red-eyed, screaming and pressing forward.

In just a short section of the city, they fought back and forth more than a dozen times.Every time I advance or retreat, blood and corpses are shed all over the ground.

Xiong Kaishan became more and more anxious.

At the beginning, Xiaobing Yunchui was indeed beaten back step by step by him, but the opponent soon reacted and began to seek cooperation between his companions, and with better weapons, since the two sides fought evenly.

Not long after, Li Hebai, who had just climbed to the top of the wall, also joined the fight, and the fight became more relaxed.

If it weren't for Xiong Kaishan's amazing power, it would be a question of whether Nan Feng could hold on.

But people are people after all.

After fighting for half an hour, Xiong Kaishan began to feel that his hands were weak, and the mace in his hand became heavier and he could hardly lift it up gradually.

"Kill!" Li Hebai also saw this point, and immediately danced with a long knife faster.

The soldiers behind him all responded, and the attack became more and more violent.

Bang bang bang.

Several spears and knives stabbed Xiong Kaishan at the same time.

If he hadn't been wearing thick armor all over his body, he would have been poked into a pile of rotten flesh.Finally, Cai Jun gave an order, and he was dragged back by the Nanfeng soldiers.

Ren Ning was caught in it, inconspicuous at all.On the surface, he was also bloodied and exhausted from the killing, but in fact he was unscathed.

At this time, the number of Yunchui soldiers rushing to the top of the city is huge, and they cannot be turned around.Many people descended directly into the inner city, and started killing people and setting fire everywhere.

Nanfeng's leading generals are already insufficient, and this will be even more stretched. Even Cai Jun's personal guards were sent out to lead troops to surround them.

In the end, he had to stand up and direct himself.

At this time, Yun Chui's offensive was slightly weaker, and the exhausted team at the top of the city began to rotate.

Ren Ning moved back and forth in an obedient manner, and it didn't take long to get back to a suitable position.

Cai Jun was observing the situation above and below the city, and was preparing to make some timely adjustments.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes.

Before he could realize what had happened, he was shot in the neck with an arrow.Then he fell softly to the ground with a plop.

succeed!

Ren Ning twitched the corners of his mouth, turned around and fled.

With his skill, it is not difficult to kill the target, but the difficulty is to escape in the encirclement.

Fortunately, after moving the log last night, Ren Ning could clearly see the surrounding situation.He knows where to step, where to jump, and where to hide.

In addition, the huge archery tower was smashed and collapsed, and most of the ruins have not been cleared yet.Even without ropes, he could safely land on the three-foot-high city wall at any time.

"There are assassins!" Cai Jun's few personal guards screamed belatedly.

With red eyes, they picked up their weapons and chased after him, gnashing their teeth, "Hurry up and grab him!"

It's just that there were too many people in the wall city, and when the guards arrived, Ren Ning had jumped down the city wall three times like a civet cat, and then rushed to the place he wanted.

Before everyone could react, he rushed into the alley, and then disappeared into various houses.

"Search for me!" Cai Jun's personal guard went crazy, "Even if all the houses here are demolished, this assassin must be searched out to avenge the general's blood."

However, the Yunchui soldiers behind him had already rushed towards them in a line.

"General Cai was killed by an assassin!"

The news rushed like a storm and tsunami, and no one believed it at first.Soon all the Nanfeng generals and soldiers panicked and hesitated.

However, the battle was fierce at this time, and swords and guns had no eyes.As long as you don't pay attention, you will die. There is no time for them to be half-hearted.

The defenders at the head of the city were killed and retreated steadily.

"That's right! The city is about to collapse." Yuan Xingwen stood tall on an arrow cart, and silently put down the binoculars. "Everyone speed up the attack and destroy this city for me in one go!"
