Traveling through time and space and becoming a deposed prince, he just wants to survive!

The Huns' method of attacking cities was similar. They pushed forward row after row of people, relying on their large numbers and momentum to intimidate the officers and soldiers defending the city.

In addition, they have a reputation for being ferocious, and especially the tribes on the grasslands often choose to surrender in order to preserve their heritage and continue their clan.

In the past, many tribes on the grassland were named after surnames. When they came under the rule of later generations, they began to merge and disperse, and started new nomadic habits.

When 30,000 Huns attacked the city, there were 20,000 in the front and 10,000 in the back to hold the line.

Generally, the people who support the rear are their own direct troops, and the vanguard is to consume the enemy's weapons. Of course, there are also many captured soldiers in the front.

So when they were charging, people with good eyesight on the city wall noticed that many of the people coming were wearing the clothes of the Great Zhou people.

The military situation was urgent, and the soldiers defending the city passed the news to the defending general.

The defending general received the news and knew the direction of the enemy's attack. He quickly divided his troops and climbed up the tower from the middle.

The gunshots also alarmed Li Xin's army a few miles away.

Because they were afraid that Zhao Sheng had no experience in defending a city for the first time, they broke camp and set out at dawn without even having breakfast.

Upon hearing that there was unusual movement in Guangchang County, he immediately led the vanguard of 20,000 troops and galloped straight to the county town.

"It seems the Huns changed their battle formation today, attacking from both sides. Unfortunately, if we had fought like this yesterday, I might have been inexperienced and something might have become loose."

Zhao Sheng received the intelligence from the front line and inferred based on the number of people. Then he spoke to Guangchang County Magistrate Sun and others.

Zhang Chun, who came from Weizhou, was in Guangchang County. Now that Zhao Sheng's army had arrived, he felt that he had no sense of existence, so he stepped forward and echoed:

"With the Dingzhou army brought by Prince Consort Zhao, holding back these tens of thousands of Xiongnu will definitely be a piece of cake."

Zhao Sheng naturally would not take such flattery seriously. He looked at Chen Da behind him, his strong and broad body, and actually found a suit of armor.

The armor was not too old. The main parts were fixed with cross-shaped copper bars, and the rest of the surface was made of bamboo fish scales. It was punched with holes and fixed from the inside with hemp ropes, and padded with cowhide.

It can be said that this set of armor is very good. There are copper plates on the front and back to protect the chest and back. Apart from the head part, the upper body is basically protected.

The weak points are the thighs and the lack of a helmet, which is not his fault, mainly because they can't find a model with a head as big as his.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhao jokingly said, "If you ride like this, be careful of getting points deducted and fined."

Chen Da didn't know what Zhao Sheng meant by this, and asked blankly: "What?..."

Without any explanation, he handed the order to Magistrate Sun, left 5,000 troops to him, and took his men to support the west gate. This place was relatively weak, and reinforcements were necessary!

After Lan Guifang of the North Gate died, these people were quickly defeated and attacked by inexplicable weapons, leaving seven or eight thousand corpses on the battlefield.

Wu Ke'nan was originally preparing to lead the troops to attack the city. In order to thank him for his support, Yelu Changcun personally led his soldiers to the west gate, so he could only stay behind as a reinforcement.

Unexpectedly, Na Lan led his men forward, but within less than half an hour, they retreated, and their bodies were carried back.

"You all deserve to die. You're retreating before the battle even begins. Turn around and continue attacking the city."

Wu Ke'nan, holding a scimitar in his hand, led the remaining men and horses to confront the retreating soldiers.

There were more than 20,000 people who retreated, and with the remaining 10,000 or so, they could still organize an attack, so as not to increase the difficulty of the attack in the west gate direction.

Wu Ke'nan's idea is obviously correct. The conditions do not allow it now, otherwise a three-pronged attack would be the best way.

The commander guarding the north gate is now under the command of Zhao Long. There are only a few people left from the original Guangchang County, and they are all resting downstairs.

Just when Zhao Long thought that the Huns had escaped and he could rest for a while, he saw the Huns rushing up again.

"Please check how many grenades are left and whether there are any bullets in the gun."

"Captain Zhao, we have no more grenades."

"Captain, we are out of bullets."

"Captain, ..."

After several battalions gathered together, they had only one grenade and more than a hundred bullets in total. This amount of ammunition was obviously not enough to hit the enemy.

"Those with ammunition, gather in the center of the city. Archers and crossbowmen, prepare yourselves. Once within range, shoot indiscriminately."

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng had no choice but to make this arrangement. Now that there were no bullets in the gun, it was just a fire stick, but these people all had a dagger on their backs.

The dagger is two feet and seven inches long, and the groin guard can be put on the gun barrel and used like a spear.

However, Mr. Zhao once said that this would easily damage the gun barrel.

However, between life and death, and a gun without bullets, he hopes that everyone will not think about these things. The first thing is to save life, then kill the enemy, and finally consider the gun issue.

Ximen Yelu Changcun's men quickly arrived at the city wall, and then the archers began to shoot arrows at the city wall.

You have to know that these soldiers are new troops. How could the protection of their helmets be harmed by these ordinary arrows?

If you have to say there is, it is just a coincidence.

The large garrison on the west gate tower quickly took their positions, and archers and crossbowmen launched a counterattack against the enemy.

Because the city wall was not wide enough to accommodate more people, Zhao Sheng and his soldiers could only watch from below and had no way to go up.

The new army was organized into squads, platoons, companies and battalions. To make it easier for them to understand, the squad leader was called the sergeant, the platoon leader was called the lieutenant, the company commander was called the captain, and the battalion commander was called the battalion commander.

Therefore, even if there is no supreme command, the battalion commander can effectively counterattack.

At this time, Cheng Jushu's men also came behind Yelu. Although they were discovered, they were still attacked by a round of arrows because of the sudden incident.

Unfortunately, their archers were in the front and had to defend themselves with a small number of shields, but they could not organize an effective counterattack.

His vanguard troops had already started to climb the city wall to fight, and a team behind him suddenly launched an attack, which caught Yelu Changcun off guard.

In a panic, he made a very wrong decision. He wanted to gather towards the north gate.

As the soldiers on the city wall were fighting, they suddenly felt a chill on their buttocks. They turned around and saw that everyone was fleeing towards the north gate.

The second battalion commander looked at Cheng Jushu's cavalry chasing the enemy in the distance, and he quickly reported the situation on the battlefield to Zhao Sheng.

The Xiongnu soldiers who attacked the west gate were in a position between the west gate and the south gate. If they wanted to escape, they had to go through the main gate of the west gate.

"Pass the order down, open the west gate and go out to block it."

The military's method of passing orders was simple: they would shout while running, and the last person to hear would turn around and continue shouting. This was definitely faster than cavalry, because there was only one sentence: "Open the west gate and kill the enemy!"

The message turned into a slogan. The side door could have been opened, but it was blocked by stones. It would be better to head towards the west gate at this time. Maybe you could catch a wave of dividends.

Yelu Changcun never dreamed that it took 30 minutes to attack and 2 hours to escape.

At first, there was Cheng Jushu's army behind them, and later more than 10,000 people in the city assisted in the pursuit.

Li Xin also came in from the south gate at this time. After hearing about the battle situation, he thought that if he rushed out of the city at this time, he would definitely be able to use his superior numbers to bully the weak. If he didn't go back now, when would he go back?
