Chapter 383

Zhao Shou took a short break and there was really not much time to rest this night.

The next day will not be easier than the first day, it will only be more difficult. In the morning, I ate something simple, drank porridge and ate a few steamed buns, and ordered wild vegetables to fill my stomach.

Before the Beiyuan people arrived, some soldiers rested on the spot, while the remaining soldiers continued to stand guard and defended. When the Beiyuan people attacked, they still had time to defend. After all, at this time, you can rest for a while, otherwise, how could you hold on tonight?

Sure enough, the Kitayuan people would not make Zhao Shou too relaxed, so they came here early this morning to prepare for the war.

It would be better to say that the Beiyuan people were more suitable to consume the energy and physical strength of the soldiers on Zhao Shou's side. Judging from this posture, the thunder and rain were loud, Zhao Shou guessed that the Beiyuan people should have planned to delay time during the day and attack at night.

Zhao Shou knew what the opponent meant, but there was no good idea. After all, defense is still necessary.

After just holding on for a day, the Beiyuan people did not suffer much damage. However, this method was too difficult for the defenders of Tianyuan City. At night, it was the real fierce battle. Zhao Shou could only defend for a while now.

As night fell, the defenders of Tianyuan City did not dare to rest, or Zhao Shou dared to let a small part of them, but the people who had persisted for a long time had a little rest. Tonight was definitely the time for the Kitayuan people to launch a large-scale attack, and this artillery must not be saved, and even if they were fighting blindly, they had to be fired.

I also opened fire last night, but the frequency of fire was not high, so the number of fires was definitely not as good as during the day. But I guess I couldn't care about that much tonight. After all, I had to open fire to drive away these Kitahara people.

As time came, the Kitahara people did launch a large-scale attack. The captives and elite soldiers rushed over, with great momentum. Compared with the feint attacks during the day, this is the real attack, and it is many times more powerful.

Zhao Shou had just a moment of rest when he heard someone shouting, "The people of Beiyuan are here to attack the city."

Zhao Shou immediately woke up and shouted loudly: "Be careful! Get ready for battle!"

Zhao Shou woke up the slightly drowsy soldiers with his throat, and the soldiers who had fallen asleep, instantly reacted, then picked up their weapons and prepared to fight.

Fortunately, the roar of artillery and the volley of muskets did hinder the pace of the Beiyuan people's siege. However, even if the reserves are sufficient, it is impossible to place them all on the city wall, which consumes too much.

Until the second half of the night, not only did the ammunition and food exhaustion, but the ammunition and other things were indeed a little unable to keep up with it, and the speed of transporting it could not keep up with the consumption speed.

Moreover, the elites of the Beiyuan people were about to come to attack the city, so Zhao Shou and the defenders naturally continued to stick to it.

Not only did the defenders not sleep well this night, but the ordinary people in the city did not sleep well either. The sound of the battle in the city wall did not stop for the whole night. It was much more intense than the first night, and the people were worried that the defenders would not be able to defend it, and then Tianyuan City was occupied by the Beiyuan people. Most people knew the cruelty of the Beiyuan people. If this fell into the Beiyuan people, it would definitely be worse than death. How could the people not worry?

However, there is still good news. As dawn approaches, the people of Beiyuan retreat. Zhao Shou struggled to defend the city, but this was not something worth showing off. Moreover, the defenders were seriously injured this night.

Zhao Shou knew that this night had passed, but what should I do during the day? What should I do tonight? Not to mention tonight, Zhao Shou felt that it would be very difficult to be able to keep it during the day today.

"Deputy General Bai, is there any news about reinforcements?"

"General, the people in our city can't get out at all, but it seems that the defenders of other cities may be involved. As for the capital, maybe we have to wait a little longer."

Zhao Shou also sighed, "This city is probably not easy to defend. Even if we fight to the last army and soldiers, we must hold on until reinforcements arrive. If I go first, this Tianyuan City will depend on you."

"General?"

Zhao Shou also knew that at this time, he had to stand on the front line and stick with the soldiers. If he couldn't hold on, what reason would he have to let the soldiers persevere?

After a while, a soldier came to report the news, "Report to the general, there are many young and strong people in the city saying that they are coming to help, do you see?"

Zhao Shou didn't think this was good news, "Deputy General Bai, you are here to guard me, I'll go and have a look."

Zhao Shou also saw these people who came spontaneously, saying that they were young and strong people, but there were also some elderly people. After all, they were indeed considered old people in their forties in ancient times.

"Dear people, what are you doing? It's very unsafe here, so go back soon."

One of them was a real strong man who stood up and said, "We know the situation is not good now, so we came back. Let's help, otherwise we will suffer as soon as Tianyuan City is broken."

"Yes, only when Tianyuan City is still there can we live a good life. Once the city is broken, we will probably not be able to survive even if we fall into the hands of the Kitayuan people."

"Yes, if we need our place, just give it."

Zhao Shou looked at these thirty people, and it seemed that more than these people were there, and there were even some wealthy businessmen who came over with their servants.

"General Zhao, let's talk about what we need to do."

"Let's do this. Now the soldiers are very tired after a night of fierce fighting, but they have to be sure to keep an eye on the movements of the Beiyuan people. Some people who need to reconnaissance will immediately beat drums and drums after seeing the Beiyuan people coming with a telescope to remind us, and then you can leave."

"There are some people, you can find ways to collect some stones that are about to be so big, which is not suitable for too big and too small, and it is not powerful. There are also some woods, such as rolling wood."

Zhao Shou assigned a little task, and then sent the young and strong people to find things. As for those who were a little older, he arranged to go up to the city wall and taught them to use telescopes, so that they could stare at the movements of the people from the north outside the city.

After the arrangement was made, Zhao Shou asked his deputy general Bai to rest first, and Zhao Shouze was watching these people for a while.

However, not long after, Zhao Shou fell asleep. In addition to these people, there were also some scattered soldiers standing guard, most of them took a short rest.

But the rest did not take long, and the people of Beiyuan came again. These people did beat the gong very loudly, awakening all the soldiers.

Another fierce battle, Zhao Shou didn't know if he could still defend it, but behind it were the people of Tianyuan City, and behind it was the land of the Dawei Dynasty, which was unsuccessful.

"Soldiers, reinforcements are coming soon, follow me to defend the city."
