At this moment,

A bloodstained Soochow soldier ran up from the city wall in panic, "General Zhou Yin, what's wrong, a group of rebel soldiers suddenly came to kill us, because they were all wearing the same military uniforms as us. , the attack caught us off guard. The defenders didn’t know what was going on and couldn’t distinguish between friends and foes. There was already chaos below, and the brothers could no longer hold it back. The rebels were already attacking the tower."

"What?" Zhou Yin's face turned pale with shock when he heard this. Where did these rebels come from? How could it appear out of thin air?

"General Zhou Yin, the top priority now is to exterminate these rebels as soon as possible under the city. Otherwise, if the rebels take advantage of the chaos and attack the tower, the west gate will be broken." Zhang Yuan persuaded with anxious eyes.

Although Zhang Yuangang had a big quarrel with Zhou Yin and almost started fighting, but now that the enemy is facing him, Zhang Yuan doesn't care so much anymore.

"Yes, yes, you are right!" Zhou Yin is just a playboy with no talent at all. Now that the rebels are coming, he, a defender general, panics. Hearing Zhang

Yuan suggested, without any thought, he immediately nodded in agreement.

"Quickly, draw two hundred soldiers from the tower and go down to the tower to wipe out the rebels." Zhou Yin's face was pale and his tone was trembling.

"General Zhou Yin, let's go at the end." Zhang Yuan saw Zhou Yin's panic, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and then he volunteered,

"Okay, thank you, Lieutenant General Zhang." Zhou Yin was full of joy, and his attitude towards Zhang Yuan also improved a little.

Zhang Yuan didn't say anything more, turned around and dispatched troops to the tower.

Zhou Yin was uneasy, and his trembling hands almost dropped the sword in his hand.

Watching the Shu army on the river getting closer and closer, Zhou Yin felt even more fearful in his heart.

"Archers, prepare for battle." Zhou Yin suppressed the fear in his heart. Yelling orders to those around you.

Because of the thousand garrison soldiers on the city wall, Zhang Yuan transferred 200 people to the city tower. At present, there were only 800 soldiers left on the city tower, among which there were very few archers, only about 300.

Using three hundred archers to deal with the Shu army outside the city did no harm at all. It was simply a useless defense.

And at this time,

Fifty Shu army warships approached the west gate wall in a mighty manner.

How could the Wu army on the city wall allow the Shu army warship to dock easily?

A Shu army warship rushing at the front was less than a hundred steps away from the west gate when it encountered Wu Jun's crazy bow and arrow shooting.

The soldiers of the Shu army standing on the warship were unable to escape and were killed by clusters of arrows from the Wu army flying towards them.

Despite such casualties, the Shu army's warships did not stop at all, but instead moved faster.

In the midst of Wu Jun’s arrow shooting,

"boom!"

The first Shu army warship successfully docked, and the collision between the warship and the dock made a deafening sound.

Because the west gate is a riverside gate of Yiling City, it is used to facilitate the transportation of goods by merchant ships during times of peace and non-war. Therefore, the river bank is steep and there is only one commercial wharf that can dock ships.

Moreover, the distance from the pier to the west gate is only about ten feet, and the space is very narrow.

The first Shu army warship has just stopped

"Kill!"

The Shu soldiers standing on the warship couldn't wait to rush towards the west gate with their spears in hand.

Each of these Shu soldiers wore silver armor, red military uniforms, and white feather helmets, with stern expressions and murderous eyes.

Zhou Yin on the city wall looked shocked when he saw this. This was the Bai Jie Army of the Shu Army!

The Bailian Army is among the Shu Army and is Liu Bei's elite direct lineage unit.

He actually sent out to attack the west gate of Yiling. It seemed that Liu Bei had spent a lot of money and must attack Yiling.

"The ones attacking the city are all Shu troops and white soldiers. Hurry, shoot them to death." Zhou Yin shouted at the top of his voice to the Wu troops on the wall.

When the soldiers of the Wu army heard Zhou Yin say that they were the Shu army and the Baiji army, their expressions changed, and their eyes showed fear.

Because the reputation of the Bailian Army is so resounding, its combat power is comparable to that of the Jiefan Army in Soochow, and even better in some aspects.

After three hundred Wu army archers shot an arrow, they took out the arrow clusters from the quiver on their backs again, put their bows into the strings, and released the arrow clusters towards the Bai Jun army under the city wall.

The Bailian Army is no better than the ordinary Shu Army. They are the elite of the Shu Army and are Liu Bei's direct troops. Therefore, their combat equipment is very complete. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as armed to the teeth.

In addition to the extremely hard armor, he is equipped with a long knife and a bow and arrow on his waist, a quiver hanging on his back, a rectangular iron shield in his left hand, and a ten-foot-long spear in his right hand.

Moreover, each of them is tall, strong and brave. These are the Bai Jie Army.

Facing the clusters of enemy arrows flying towards them, the soldiers of the White Army did not panic at all, with stern expressions. They squatted half-crouched, held their rectangular shields upright, hid their bodies behind them, and then moved slowly and steadily,

The arrows hit the hard shield and all fell to the ground, without causing any damage to Bai Chen's army.

When Zhou Yin saw this, he was horrified. Bai Jie's army was so powerful. If he climbed onto the tower, how could the eight hundred Wu soldiers around him be his opponent?

There is no doubt that it is not enough to make the other party choke.

Zhou Yin suddenly had an idea in his mind, to run for his life.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yin decided that it was more important to escape. Ximen couldn't hold it anymore, so he attacked from both inside and outside and cooperated with each other.

To resist blindly is to seek death. It is still too late to escape before the opponent has completely breached the west gate.

Zhou Yin thought about this, gritted his teeth and turned around, preparing to escape from Ximen.

Just walked a few steps,

Under the city tower, there was the sound of hurried and panicked footsteps.

Zhou Yin was startled, holding the sword in his hand tightly and looking at the stairs warily.

in a moment,

A Wu Army soldier who was covered in wounds and bleeding profusely walked up.

When he saw Zhou Yin's vigilant look, his face was slightly startled at first, and then he reacted and begged Zhou Yin for mercy, "General Zhou Yin, please spare your life. I am here to report, under the city..."

Before he could finish speaking.

A sharp gun tip emerged from his chest, and blood dripped from the tip of the gun.

The fearful face of the Wu Army soldier was full of unwillingness. With a pair of dead eyes open and blood spilling from the corners of his mouth, he tried his best to say vaguely to Zhou Yin, "General Zhou...run away..."

Before he finished speaking, he finally lost his breath, fell backwards, and fell under the tower.

Zhou Yin was shocked and looked at the murderous enemy.

His face turned pale, and his eyes were full of anxiety and fear.

I saw that man, wearing white clothes and silver armor, with a silver hairpin on his head, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and he looked extraordinary.

He suddenly appeared on the city tower, and the silver spear in his hand, with blood flowing across it, was extremely eye-catching and terrifying.
