Therefore, he did not say anything definite, he could only say that there was a slight possibility of keeping it.
Xiao Danglu took a deep breath and said, "What you said makes sense, but it is still very difficult to defend it."
Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Old General, it's already this time, let's fight to the best of our ability!"
Xiao Danglu nodded: "This is already the best!"
After a pause, Xiao Danglu asked, "Will the Sky Bombardment Cannon take another ten days to arrive?"
Zhao Hao nodded slightly: "The Sky Boom Cannon is too heavy, and it can't be transported quickly."
"Before I set out from Luoye City, I had already sent someone to Qinzhou to deliver the message."
"I think they should have received the order by now."
"From now on, ten days is the fastest way to get from Qinzhou to Tongshan!"
Xiao Danglu nodded and said, "The coalition forces of Wu and Shu are currently gathering."
"It will take at least three Emperor Heavens' time for them to gather together."
"That is to say, we have to hold out for at least six days before the sky-blasting cannons are delivered."
"Six days..."
Zhao Hao asked: "Old General, how many troops are there in the city now that can join the battle?"
Xiao Danglu said, "With the five thousand you brought this time, it will be close to thirty thousand."
"Six days of defense, it's not a big problem!"
"The main problem is that after six days, even if the sky bombers are delivered, we will not be able to continue to fight the enemy with consumption."
Zhao Hao nodded slightly: "Then there is no other way, we can only mobilize the people in the city!"
"Let's hold on as long as we can!"
The two discussed for a long time, but in fact they didn't come up with any completely useful results.
In the end, Xiao Danglu let Zhao Hao stay.
However, the bottom line was also stated.
That is, at most, let Zhao Hao stay in Tongshan until the sky-blasting cannon is delivered.
As soon as the sky cannon arrives and Zhao Hao teaches you how to use it, you must go back immediately.
Zhao Hao didn't want to continue arguing with the old man, so he simply nodded and agreed.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The scouts reported that the armies of the two countries had completed their assembly.
Coming towards Tongshan.
It will take half a day to get there.
Moreover, Zhao Hao also received news from the secret agent at the same time.
The Wu State divided 30,000 troops and once again passed through the Shu State and attacked in the direction of Luoye City.
This news made Zhao Hao freeze in place.
The Shu Kingdom itself did not attack Luoye City again.
Instead, he lent the road to the State of Wu, allowing Wu to attack.
This does not count as a violation of the promise made by the Empress of Shu.
Damn it...
Fortunately, there is still some time, and the large group of people cannot move too quickly.
There are still six days left here.
We can wait a little longer.
But, on second thought, Zhao Hao felt something was wrong.
If he continues to wait for six days, plus the time he takes to go back, it will be eleven days.
By the time he arrived, the daylily was cold.
So, we have to hurry back to Luoye City now.
He wrote down in detail the instructions for using the sky cannon and gave it to Xiao Danglu.
After explaining the situation to Xiao Danglu, Zhao Hao took Wusong and a group of people from the Qingqi Squad, left Tongshan and returned to Luoye City.
However, he did not take away the 5,000 troops he brought with him.
The return journey took another five days.
There are only 10,000 troops left in Luoye City.
However, it should still be possible to defend against Wu's 30,000 troops.
As soon as he came back, Zhao Hao couldn't help but immediately deploy his troops.
He sent three thousand men out of Luoye City, intending to use the same old trick on Wu Jun.
Just as he was getting ready, 30,000 troops of the Wu army arrived.
The Wu army was not as polite as the Shu army.
As soon as they came up, they launched a fierce attack on Luoye City.
The 30,000 troops were divided into two groups and took turns attacking.
The remaining 7,000 men in Zhao Hao's hands, together with the people in the city, also launched a fearless defense.
The fight lasted for a whole day and a night.
At this moment, the three thousand troops that Zhao Hao had sent out before finally turned back.
When the Wu army was attacking, they launched an attack on the Wu army from behind.
Zhao Hao was standing on the top of the city wall. Seeing this, he led all his troops and took the initiative to attack.
A trick was used three times, and each time it produced unexpected results.
Under attack from both sides, the Wu army, with less than 30,000 soldiers left, was defeated in an instant.
In the end, only about five thousand people broke through the siege and retreated from Luoye City.
After the victory, they withdrew their troops back to the city.
However, Zhao Hao did not seem happy at all.
He kept looking towards the south with a serious expression.
Wu Song on the side said: "Sir, it will be useless for us to go there now, so let's just wait for news."
There are also secret agents from the dark department in Tongshan City, who are constantly passing on information.
Zhao Hao took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Now, we can only leave it to fate!"
At this moment, Tongshan City is indeed experiencing an extremely brutal battle.
Just yesterday, the sky cannon was finally delivered.
But, it was not ten doors as Zhao Hao said, but twenty doors.
Twenty sky-blast cannons were set up on the top of the city walls and began to bombard the coalition forces fiercely.
The sky bombardment cannon fired, twenty of them fired at the same time, and immediately blew the entire coalition army to pieces.
One shot would cause at least hundreds of casualties, and if the crowds were dense, it would cause hundreds more casualties.
This is much more terrifying than a thunder bomb.
Moreover, neither the Wu army nor the Shu army had ever seen such a terrifying weapon.
When the cannon exploded, everyone immediately began to tremble in fear.
The warhorse also neighed wildly, lost control and became completely chaotic.
After one round of bombing, the second round followed.
The coalition forces launched a fierce attack and were bombarded by rounds of cannon fire. When they were about to break into the city, they finally chose to retreat.
After seven consecutive days of holding out, both the attackers and defenders suffered heavy losses.
Especially as the attacking party of the coalition forces.
The casualties exceeded 30,000.
The Da Gan side also lost nearly 10,000 troops.
If the sky bombardment cannon had not been added, the coalition forces would have definitely taken Tongshan in one fell swoop.
Seeing the coalition forces retreating like the tide, Xiao Danglu, who had been commanding the battle on the top of the city, finally fell to the ground.
Then, I fell asleep directly.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers quickly helped him up and carried him down the city wall.
Allied camp.
King Xiaoyao and the chief general of the Wu army, General Hailing Li Mu, all sat on their chairs with grim expressions.
The same was true for the generals, whose faces looked extremely ugly.
King Xiaoyao took a deep breath and said, "Gan Jun, you have come up with such a terrifying killing weapon again..."
