The next morning, before daybreak, the Southern Chu army surged forward again.
This time, all the Nan Chu soldiers went crazy and launched a frantic attack.
The Da Gan side was also aroused with crazy fighting spirit.
The Southern Chu Army did not have any bombs in the first two attacks.
On Dagan's side, the bombs had actually been used up long ago.
This time, the two sides were just fighting in the most primitive way.
It was extremely tragic.
At this time, thousands of improved strong bows caused great casualties to the Southern Chu army.
However, the Southern Chu Army was like crazy and was not afraid of death.
Facing the rain of arrows from the city walls, they still chose to attack frantically.
This scene is shocking.
If this happened to soldiers from any other country, they would be so weak that they would collapse immediately, not to mention fighting back.
But, this is Da Gan, these are Da Gan’s soldiers.
Years of war have made the people develop the courage and determination to defeat the stronger the enemy.
Therefore, it was great to see the Southern Chu army so fearless and brave.
This made all the soldiers defending the city even more determined to destroy the enemy.
The fierce battle caused soldiers from both sides to fall one after another.
The Southern Chu side suffered heavy casualties under the rain of arrows, falling trees, rolling stones and kerosene.
Under the walls of Tucheng, corpses had gradually piled up into a small hill.
However, the Southern Chu Army still did not stop the attack.
Still moving forward and attacking the earthen city.
Finally, at noon, some soldiers from Southern Chu climbed up the city wall.
However, they were soon defeated by the soldiers defending the city.
But once there is a first time, there will be a second time.
Under the bombardment of countless catapults, a large hole was directly opened in the earthen city.
The cavalry of Southern Chu continued to pile up sacks of soil to create a path.
At dusk, a large group of Southern Chu soldiers finally rushed into the earthen city.
Failed to break through the city wall, they formed a passage through the broken gap.
Faced with the large number of Southern Chu cavalry and infantry pouring into the city, Yu Ping hurriedly led his men to meet them.
He took the lead and rushed forward and got entangled with the enemy.
Zhao Hao and Wu Song, along with his twenty or so personal guards, never climbed up the city wall and stayed far away in the city.
At this moment, the gap was also seen.
At this moment, a personal officer of Xiao Danglu came running over quickly.
"My Lord, the general has ordered you to leave Tucheng as soon as possible!"
"The Southern Chu army has entered the city. It is too dangerous for you to stay!"
Zhao Hao frowned and said, "The old general is still here, how can I leave first?"
The general was speechless: "This..."
Zhao Hao shouted in a deep voice: "Don't worry about me for now, go take care of the old general, we must not let anything happen to him!"
Upon hearing this, the general nodded quickly, turned around and ran up the city wall.
As the battle became more and more brutal, Zhao Hao became extremely nervous.
He looked at Wu Song beside him and said, "Second Brother Wu, take your brothers to help kill the enemy!"
Wu Song was embarrassed when he heard this, "Sir, I have to protect your safety!"
Zhao Hao quickly said: "With Miss Qingxing here, my safety is not a problem!"
"You guys go ahead!"
"Remember, you must be careful. If you go there in groups, bring back as many people as you can!"
Wu Song thought about it and nodded: "Okay, let's go now!"
As he said this, he led about twenty guards and rushed towards the damaged part of the city wall.
The soldiers in the city kept falling down.
It has to be said that the combat effectiveness of the Southern Chu Army is stronger than that of Shu and Yue.
There were footsteps coming from behind. Zhao Hao turned around, looked at the person who came and said, "Miss Qingxing, please ask your Qingqi to join the battle!"
Now, it has reached the most critical moment.
As long as we hold on, the Southern Chu army will naturally retreat.
If it can't hold on, Chushui will collapse.
By then, the entire battle situation will change.
Qing Xing said in a deep voice: "Sir, the Qingqi in my hands has only one mission, and that is to protect your safety."
"So, even if Tucheng falls, we will never join the war."
Zhao Hao knew that it was useless to say anything more, so he shook his head helplessly.
No more talking.
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Hao said, "If that's the case, then Miss Qingxing should send someone to Xinzhou and ask them to send reinforcements!"
Qing Xing shook his head and said, "Without your majesty's order, no one can mobilize the army!"
"It's a waste of time even if you go!"
Zhao Hao said: "It's already this late. If there is no reinforcement, the south bank of Chushui will be lost!"
"You are His Majesty's attendant. Can't you be flexible?"
Qing Xing shook his head again: "No one can do it!"
Zhao Hao sighed and shook his head.
If that was the case, then there was nothing he could do.
The battle lasted from early morning until late at night, and the Southern Chu army completely broke into the earth city.
Xiao Danglu ordered his soldiers to go to the top of the city wall and engage in a more brutal battle with the Southern Chu army inside the city.
Zhao Hao hid in the City Lord's Mansion.
When the exhausted Xiao Danglu was helped back by his personal soldiers, he saw Zhao Hao was still there and immediately became furious.
"Little mouse, why haven't you left yet?"
"The city is about to be breached!"
"It will be too late if we don't leave now!"
"Someone, take Lord Zhao to the north bank!"
Zhao Hao hurriedly went to meet him and said, "Old General, come with me!"
