After several rounds of bombardment with trebuchets, Mu Chun personally took the lead and started trying to land with his elite troops.
They disembarked and landed without encountering any obstacles.
But when they continued to move forward, a large number of archers appeared on the top of Jinhu City and began to throw arrows at them. The arrows were like locusts. Many Huai soldiers were splashed with blood and staggered to the ground.
With Mu Chun's armor and protective aura, no arrows, arrows or rolling wood could harm him.
He quickly rushed to the city.
Boom! Only half of the dozen or so ladders came up to the top of the city. Just as Mu Chun was about to climb the city, he heard someone shouting from the top of the city: "Down!"
puff!
Hot golden juice poured down from above.
Before the golden juice even fell, Mu Chun smelled the scent keenly, his face changed drastically, his steps stopped, and he flew back.
Ahhhh!
The golden juice was splashed on many Huai soldiers. The hot juice burned their skin and flesh to pieces, and a stench filled the surrounding area.
Golden juice is made by boiling excrement and water. When poured on a person, it can not only open the skin and flesh, but also allow all kinds of dirt to invade the body along the wound, making the person infected.
If there is no famous doctor using top-grade medicinal materials for diagnosis and treatment, he will definitely die.
How can ordinary soldiers get help from famous doctors? Being burned by golden juice is equivalent to half stepping into the gate of hell.
Mu Chun has Gang Qi to protect his body, so he doesn't have to worry about the damage from the golden juice.
But having his head and face covered with feces and water was something he didn't dare to taste.
"Kill! Drive the enemy troops down the river!"
On the top of the city, Fu Gongyou personally supervised the battle, and his generals worked hard to defend themselves with boulders and kerosene bombs, risking bombardment to resist the Huai army's attack.
"Come again!"
Zhang Lin stared at the scene in front of him and continued to direct his troops to attack. Like a tide, he kept trying to attack the city under the cover of stone bullets.
After three rounds of attempts and the loss of hundreds of soldiers, the order was given to temporarily retire and rest.
Wait for Mu Chun to return to the ship.
Zhang Lin immediately asked: "How is it? How many generals are there on the city wall above the third level?"
"There are probably more than seven generals above the third level, but never more than ten. There is also a fourth-level general who has refined Gang Qi..."
Mu Chun led people to attack the city several times with the intention of testing.
After several trials, the general situation of Jinhu City was known.
Fu Gongyou's reputation in history was not very good. Except for the generals who followed him, few other celebrities defected to him.
There are less than ten generals above the third level in the army.
At today's time point.
The famous ministers and generals in history have all been given enough time to grow. The famous ministers and generals above the first-class level all have at least the fourth or fifth level of strength.
Even a general like Mu Chun, who could only be considered a third-rate general, had fully tapped into his potential and gained fourth-level strength.
Among the Huai army, there are many fourth-level generals.
There are dozens of generals above the third level, and there are even more generals who are about to break through to the third level. Basically, anyone who can become a guerrilla general has at least level three strength.
"One level 4, seven or eight levels 3! Okay, as long as we attack for two more days and consume most of these people's physical strength, we can capture Jinhu City!"
Zhang Lin had a smile on his face.
Through the information obtained through testing, he already had a plan in mind.
With Zhang Lin's strength, the fourth-level generals who assisted Gongyou's army were no match for him. After killing the enemy's fourth-level general, Jinhu City can be easily taken.
As for why General Zhang Lin didn't come to the city in person...
Because Zhang Lin is the commander of the forward army, there can be no accidents. Valley
Zhang Lin's Gang Qi is strong, and his strength has exceeded the limit and reached the fifth level. However, the Gang Qi of a fifth-level general cannot ignore the cold arrows and crossbows that carry Gang Qi.
Zhang Lin was not the first to attack at this time. Without knowing the details of Jinhu City, if he acted impulsively and fell into the opponent's plan, it would affect the entire forward army.
The general who leads the army has different responsibilities than the vanguard.
At this time, Zhang Lin was the general in charge and Mu Chun was the vanguard.
After most of the day's siege battle, Yi Huai's soldiers were a little tired, and Mu Chun was also resting and recovering his strength.
…
Northeast of Jinhu City, on a mountain peak on the other side of the river.
A man carrying a package was standing on the bluestone, sweeping towards the city with black smoke in the distance and the Huai Army warships attacking the city.
His eyes were like those of an eagle, and just by standing there, he gave off a stern aura as if a tiger was looking at an eagle.
"Brother, we have found out clearly that it is King Huai's troops who are attacking Jinhu City, and the leading general is Zhang Lin!"
After a while, several men appeared from the woods.
These men are also strong and strong, with strong physique and strength, sharp eyes, and crisp movements.
They had just approached Jinhu City. Near Jinhu City, they found a few people who had gone into the mountains to escape the war, and also captured a few soldiers who had been defeated by the Huai army navy and fled.
"The soldiers and horses of King Huai?"
The man carrying the package raised his eyebrows slightly and asked his companions to tell them all the information they had learned.
When he heard that the Huai army was so sharp that it took only half a day to conquer two cities and arrived at the gate of Jinhu City, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
"King Huai's army is so sharp! Zhang Lin can be considered a general."
He gave a slight compliment.
A companion next to him said: "Brother, King Huai is now camping at Laozi Mountain. Should we go to the camp to join the army, or go to Sihong to find Mr. Wang?"
The man who was called the eldest brother laughed and said: "We don't go to the camp, and we don't go to Mr. Wang. Since we met King Huai's soldiers here, we will surrender directly here!"
"A true man, you can only win fame by riding horses. Instead of meeting King Huai and looking for Mr. Wang, it is better to join the army and make meritorious service here!"
"I heard that King Huai has certain rewards and punishments, and only those who have made meritorious deeds can become an official and lead the army. Isn't this an opportunity to make meritorious deeds?"
There was extremely strong confidence in his tone.
He didn't take Fu Gongyou of Jinhu City seriously.
"What eldest brother said is that we all obey eldest brother's orders!"
Several men looked shocked and shouted one after another.
"Let's go and meet General Zhang first!"
The man strode down the mountain with the stride of a dragon and a tiger, running towards the Huai army. Several men behind him hurriedly followed.
Half an hour later.
Zhang Lin, who was observing the movements of the Jinhu City defenders on the boat, saw his confidant walking towards him quickly.
"General, several people came outside the camp and said they wanted to join the army!"
Zhang Lin frowned and said, "You are here to report such a trivial matter? Just drive the person away, and now you come to join the army. If he is a spy from Jinhu City, wouldn't it reveal the intelligence of our army?"
"This... this person is very powerful. He said he could help the general take down Jinhu City. My subordinates thought that talents are rare, and maybe the other side really has a way... so they came to report to the general!"
This general also knew that it was against the rules to accept new recruits during a war.
But the opponent's strength and magnanimity were so great that he unconsciously made an exception.
Zhang Lin looked at the general, and when cold sweat appeared on the general's forehead, he asked: "What a loud tone, has this person told you his origin?"
The general replied quickly: "This person calls himself Huaibei Fu Youde..."
