"Those people? Yes, I was wondering why Li Xiuzhu left 4,000 black-armored soldiers behind. It seems like it must be for this matter."

"Report!"

Just as Zhu Zhinuo was thinking, a notification came.

Zhu Zhinuo hurried out.

"What's up?"

"Reporting to the general, our reinforcements were found 1 mile outside the city."

Zhu Zhinuo was stunned.

"Are you sure it's our reinforcements?"

Silla has attacked the city three times in these days, and hit the city wall three times. If it weren't for the cavalry appearing behind the enemy at every critical moment, and if he hadn't led his troops to fight to the death, then his Yanmen Pass would have been lost long ago.

Could it be that those cavalrymen are going to enter the city?

But he was obviously wrong.

The soldier confirmed with a little excitement: "Yes, it came from the south. The flag is ours, with the word Su on it."

Su? The old general Su Qi? "Come on, follow me to greet him."

If it really is General Su Qi, then his Yanmen Pass will immediately be as impregnable as a rock.

Zhu Zhinuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s not that he really didn’t want to surrender. He did hesitate, but the two important passes, Juyongguan and Shanhaiguan, were back in the hands of the Great Zhou, so he didn’t dare to surrender.

To surrender now would mean seeking death, so he had been defending desperately in the past few days, but even though he had fought with his life, he was almost exhausted.

About 10,000 Silla soldiers died in the past few days, but nearly 10,000 of his troops defending Yanmen Pass also died.

The ferocity of the enemy was more terrifying than anything he had seen before.

Fortunately, reinforcements finally arrived.

Li Xiuzhu was still enjoying himself in the land of gentleness. He received a message from Luo Shicheng a few days ago. Luo Shicheng gave him only one task: to hold the position, and leave the rest to him.

Li Xiuzhu was not here to grab military merit, and the army's record of capturing Juyongguan was enough, not to mention there was also a Northern Expedition Army, so he naturally accepted the order and enjoyed himself.

Luo Shicheng was worthy of being a great general. After his side took the lead in combat power, he was on guard against external enemies while sending out cavalry to harass the Silla army outside Yanmen Pass.

Moreover, he always chose the right time, launching the attack just as the Silla people had just breached the city wall.

Jin Dakang was forced to withdraw his troops.

After two or three times, the Silla soldiers' eyes were red, as if they saw death beckoning them.

Jin Dakang also called all the generals in today and said bluntly: "We are now close to a dead end. If we can't take Yanmen Pass, we will surely die."

"It's not difficult to attack Yanmen Pass. The enemy is made up of veterans and new recruits. The key is the cavalry at the back."

"We still have 18,000 people, and we still have to defend the city in the future, so we must fight to the death in order to survive."

"Next I will launch an all-out war, and everyone will join in the siege."

"Now, I need someone to lead 3,000 people to die to buy time for others to attack the city."

"Half an hour. As long as we can hold back the cavalry for half an hour, that will be enough."

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, knowing that they would surely die if they went there.

After a brief silence, a young man sighed and stood up.

"I am Lee Soo Man, your subordinate, and I am willing to die for Silla. If the general can see my family one day, I hope you can take care of them."

Jin Dakang was overjoyed when he heard this.

"General Li, rest assured. I will take care of your wife and daughter. You don't have to worry."

Lee Soo Man nodded solemnly.

"Then I'll leave it to you, General."

"Um!"

Hearing this, Jin Dakang looked at the others.

"Each of you will choose a section of the wall to attack. Except for the logistics, everyone must charge in. We only have this one chance."

"Okay, let's go down and make a fire and cook. We will attack the city in half an hour."

Just when Jin Dakang was preparing for a desperate fight, he unexpectedly saw an army of 50,000 men marching into Yanmen Pass.

"General Su, I feel relieved now that you are here. If you don't come, I'm afraid I won't be able to defend the city."

Su Qi frowned slightly when he heard this.

"What's the situation now? The battle report said that General Li has captured Juyong Pass. Is that true?"

Zhu Zhinuo nodded quickly.

"It's true. General Li had just arrived and he captured Juyong Pass that night."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Su Qi's face.

"It seems that we veterans have underestimated this little guy."

"What happened next? What is he doing now?"

Zhu Zhinuo paused when he heard this.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"I don't know about this either. Silla has now cut off the connection between Yanmen Pass and Juyong Pass and Shanhai Pass."

"There is a cavalry of ours outside. Silla almost attacked us three times, but we were able to counterattack because the other side harassed us at critical moments."

"As for this team, I don't even know which army it belongs to."

Su Qi nodded upon hearing this, then turned to a young general and said, "Su Yun, you go take over the northern city defense."

"promise!"

Su Yun said this, and led a team of troops quickly towards the north.

Their army does not march very fast, but they always maintain their combat effectiveness, so they can go to the battlefield as soon as they arrive.

Fortunately they arrived in time.

Su Qi had just arrived at the county magistrate's office and had no time to relax when he heard the Silla siege horn.

Putting down the teacup, Su Qi stood up and immediately walked out, while instructing: "Let Jia Zhen and Li Yang stand by at the north city gate."

"promise!"

After leaving the County Magistrate's Mansion, Su Qi quickly walked towards the city gate.

At the same time, seeing the Silla people attacking the city, Luo Chen kept his father's orders in mind and immediately led his men to attack the Silla camp.

At this moment, a cavalry team of about 3,000 people seemed to be prepared and immediately rushed over.

Each of these people had three horses, and they looked even larger than Luo Chen's team.

The galloping of the war horses made the earth shake, and the next second countless arrows rained down.

Although Luo Chen had more people, the opponent's density was small, so the damage was less.

Are these people here to stop them? Luo Chen felt an uneasy premonition in his heart.

In just a hundred meters, both sides fired two rounds of arrows.

But after two rounds, the Silla people only suffered a few hundred casualties and thousands of war horses.

However, the skin of war horses was thick, so only one or two hundred horses died immediately. The others were still running, and they were running wildly after being injured.

Luo Cheng's side has suffered no less than two thousand casualties.

You have to know that they only have 10,000 cavalrymen in Shanhaiguan, and each of them has only one horse.

The next second, the cavalry teams collided with each other, and the impact of the war horses instantly paused on both sides.

Luo Chen's side was forced back as if crushed by a torrent.

The war horses behind were unable to dodge and many of them formed a chain collision.

Luo Chen looked at the scene in disbelief, and then he noticed that all the enemy horses, except those ridden by people, were blindfolded.

Luo Chen's eyes narrowed. Needless to say, most of these war horses could not be kept, but this kind of suicidal attack made him even more uneasy.

Arrows flew again, and Luo Chen and his men could only fight back sporadically.

More than 40% of the cavalry fell off their horses and were trampled.

This wave of losses can be said to be a huge loss.
