The snow in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and the snowflakes all over the sky covered everything. Only the shouts of people on the top of the city continued.
After the stones were smashed, the common people carried the Huns' corpses and threw them down. When the rolling logs were used up, the common people tore down the beams of their houses to use as rolling logs. The civilians on the top of the city died one after another, but there was no one in the whole city. One yelled and flinched.
Everyone was forced into a corner, and they had no room to retreat. According to the Huns' habits, once they broke through the city, there would be absolutely no survivors in the entire Fushi City.
The brutal Huns would kidnap their wives and daughters and enslave their children. Shen Yuncong suffered heavy injuries on his shoulders, but he stood resolutely on top of the city.
With red eyes, Wen Ge led Shen Yuncong's few remaining guards back and forth across the city, acting as a temporary fire captain.
"My lord, my lord, my lord, we are going to be unable to hold on any longer. Please hurry up and break out!"
A soldier covered in blood and missing an arm knelt at Shen Yuncong's feet and cried loudly.
"Come here, take him down and treat his wounds!"
Shen Yuncong swallowed hard, and then said hello to the few civilians around him.
"My lord, my lord, please leave quickly!"
The soldiers just kept pleading, if they all died in the battle, who would know what they had done.
It is not a pity for these people to die, but they only hope that everything they have done can be known by others, and that their families can receive pensions from the court after they die!
"Shut up! If you dare to mess with our army again, we will definitely kill you! Today, we have no way to retreat. The city is still there and the people are there, but the city is dead and the people are dead!"
Although Shen Yuncong also knew that he had good intentions, at this time, only the common people were struggling on the entire city. How could he leave at this time?
The Huns rushed forward again, and the civilians, red-eyed with bloodshed, rushed forward desperately, hitting them with their fists, biting them with their teeth, and butting them with their heads!
When desperate, the injured civilian husbands would even jump off the city with the Huns in their arms.
The Huns were finally repelled again. In the heavy snow, the military minister Shan Yu looked at the situation on the battlefield from a distance, and his face became more and more ugly!
It's just a half-completed floating city. The city is only two feet high and the defenders are only a few thousand. However, his army has been attacking for a whole day. It is already late at night and there is still no way to capture it. This makes the military minister Shan Yu very angry. Difficult to accept.
"Give me the order to go down. After the city is destroyed, no one will be left in the city!"
In less than a day and a night, the Xiongnu army actually lost nearly ten thousand people, and these were all the elites of Shanyu's headquarters!
These people are the foundation for his livelihood. Let alone 10,000 people, even if they are 1,000 people, he will feel extremely distressed.
Especially at this time, the Shanyu headquarters has openly started a war with King Youxian, and King Zuoxian's attitude is also ambiguous. If he cannot achieve a hearty victory, I am afraid that what will greet the Huns will be undisputed. of decline.
"promise!"
The Great Chanyu has become so jealous that he no longer cares about anything else at this time.
The snow was falling even harder, and all the corpses under the city walls had been buried under the snow, while the ground under Fushi City turned into a swamp of mud.
In the dark mud, there is a mixed smell of human body fluids, blood, and brain matter. The war has entered the most cruel stage. What is now competing is only human will.
Although there are only a few thousand defenders in Fushi City, there are 150,000 people here.
Seeing that the city was in a tight situation, the women and children in the city began to help transport stones. Men, women, old and weak all over the city were praying, and Shen Yuncong's heart was broken into pieces.
The city is full of blood and fire. Can this city really be defended?
Shen Yuncong asked himself again...
According to the current situation, it seems like what if we can hold on? I'm afraid that after the Huns retreat, there won't be many living people left in the city...
What he saw was only one city wall in front of him, but there were three such walls in Fushi City...
The Huns didn't take into account the custom of surrounding a city with three towers and one tower. The entire Fushi City was besieged and was covered in iron barrels.
They have no escape route at all. There is no escape route close by and no reinforcements far away. They can only rely on themselves for everything...
Everything in this city is the result of his many years of hard work as an official. Ever since he became the prefect, he has put in so much effort in this Fushi City. Today, with this war, everything has been destroyed...
No, we can’t go on like this!
He has to leave some fire for this Fushi City!
"Vingo!"
Shen Yuncong suddenly shouted.
"My subordinate is here!"
After struggling to kill a Huns, Wen Ge rushed to Shen Yuncong's side, knelt down on one knee and responded!
"I have to write the last memorial. After I finish writing, you can personally break out of the encirclement and send it to Chang'an to present to His Majesty!"
Shen Yuncong's eyes were very complicated. He liked the young man in front of him very much. He was diligent and studious, polite to others, filial to his parents, benevolent to his friends, and loyal to the court. Not only was he amazing in martial arts at a young age, but also rare in his every move. There is a lot of order in between.
Such a person should not be allowed to die in obscurity on this city wall on such a night.
He is the talent that the imperial court needs, and I should really give him a way out...
"grown ups!"
Of course Wen Ge knew what Shen Yuncong meant, but at this time, he really didn't want to leave. The whole city was fighting to the death, leaving him to survive alone. How could he be willing...
"This city cannot be defended after all... I should leave some fire for the court. People like you should have a broader stage. I will write you a letter of recommendation and wait for this. After you pass, go to Dai Kingdom to find His Highness King Dai!"
Shen Yunzhong's voice was very soft, and only the two of them could hear it in this city tower filled with shouts of death...
"Sir, I am willing to live and die with Fushi City!"
Wen Ge said through gritted teeth with red eyes.
"No, you are wrong! It is me who should live and die with Fushi City. I am the prefect sent by the imperial court. It is my duty to live and die with Fushi City! You have to live well. Remember this! From today on, your life no longer belongs to you! Look at the people who died in Fushi City. You need to avenge their revenge! The blood feud of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians throughout the city, It’s all going to fall on you alone!”
Shen Yuncong's voice was calm, but Wen Ge's body was trembling...
"promise……"
Wen Ge's tears burst into his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and responded.
