Hearing what the Queen of Shu said, the generals were all stunned.
Immediately, one of the generals spoke up, "Your Majesty, with the military strength of Luoye City, even if there is a trap, we will definitely be able to take it down with our repeated attacks!"
The Empress of Shu frowned and said, "Since I have spoken, there is no reason for me to break my promise!"
"No need to say more!"
"retreat!"
When everyone heard this, their faces changed and they all said in unison: "Your Majesty..."
The Empress of Shu said in a deep voice: "If you were really capable, you wouldn't have ended up in this situation!"
"Why, do I have to sacrifice my reputation to clean up your mess?"
Hearing his words, everyone lowered their heads in shame.
Especially the generals who had been defeated in the previous battle were extremely ashamed.
…
Luoye City, on the city wall.
Looking at the Shu army camp, they broke camp and slowly retreated.
Zhao Hao smacked his lips twice, smiled slightly, and said, "Not bad, you're quite trustworthy."
"Let the army march to Tongshan City!"
At this time, Tongshan City was already under repeated attack by the Wu army.
The fighting between the two sides was extremely brutal.
However, Tongshan City is still under the control of the Dagan defenders.
The Wu army rushed into the city several times, but was repelled by the united resistance of the army and civilians.
Now in Tongshan City, not only the defending soldiers are fighting.
Countless people also participated.
Not only did they help restore the broken city walls, but they also picked up various weapons and helped the defenders join the battle.
It can be said that everyone is brave enough to take the lead.
Because this is their own home.
Also, even if they died in battle, they all knew that the imperial court would not ignore their families.
The last time, when the four countries attacked Gan, at least ten thousand families in the city lost people while defending the city.
However, the imperial court did not ignore it and gave high pensions to each of their families.
In that case, what is there to worry about?
For my own home.
Just fight with those bastards from Wu State.
In fact, this was the foundation laid by Zhao Hao last time when he was determined to provide relief to the people.
It is precisely because of this foundation that all the people in the city are so determined to participate in defending the city.
However, even so, the casualties on the Gan army side, both soldiers and civilians, were extremely heavy.
Of course, the casualties of Wu’s army were at least twice as many as those of Gan’s army.
Even so, the Wu army continued to attack desperately.
Their determination is much greater than that of Shu.
At present, there are only about 10,000 soldiers in Tongshan City who can participate in the war.
Facing the frenzied attack of the Wu army, the old general Xiao Danglu was also extremely exhausted.
At this moment, the whole person sat on the top of the city wall exhausted.
He still gritted his teeth and persisted, commanding the soldiers to defend.
"Old General, this time, the Wu army is determined to capture Tongshan!"
"Our casualties are increasing rapidly. I'm afraid that soon..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Danglu shouted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense to me!"
"No matter what the cost, we must defend it!"
"Damn Wu Jun, if they want to capture Tongshan, then let them step over all our dead bodies!"
"My fellow bastards, follow me and fight! Don't let the Wu bastards climb up to the top of the city wall!"
As he spoke, he brandished his sword and charged towards the Wu army that had climbed up to the top of the city wall.
However, because the number of their defending soldiers was seriously insufficient, they could only rely on the civilians in the city to fill the gaps.
However, the people are just people after all, and their fighting power is far inferior to that of the regular army.
And there is no rules.
They will still be attacked by Wu’s army.
Seeing that more and more Wu army soldiers were coming up, everyone grabbed Xiao Danglu who was covered in blood.
"Old General, we still need to plan ahead!"
"Yes, old general, leave this to me. Go back and prepare for evacuation!"
Xiao Danglu was furious and said, "Bullshit, I can die in battle, how can I retreat a step?"
"Stop talking nonsense and follow me to kill the enemy!"
"Today, even if we all die in battle, we cannot retreat even a single step!"
One of the generals gritted his teeth and said, "Old General, I can die in battle, but you can't!"
"Please go first, old general!"
All the officers and soldiers knelt on one knee and begged, "General, please go first!"
Xiao Danglu shouted in a serious tone: "Stop talking, I have received great favor from your majesty, now is the time to repay you!"
"Everyone, stand up!"
"From now on, no one should say the word retreat!"
"Remember this, fight to the death!"
Just at this moment, a soldier ran over quickly.
"General Xiao, our reinforcements are here!"
Everyone's eyes widened when they heard this.
Xiao Danglu also took a deep breath: "Reinforcements?"
How could there be reinforcements?
Now, there are not many soldiers left in the capital.
All the soldiers, except those in Jianning City, Tongshan City, and Luoye City.
All the remaining troops have gone to the State of Yue.
Could it be that the Yue State had already won and the army turned back?
However, as soon as this thought came to his mind, he shook his head violently.
impossible.
The timing just doesn't match up.
