    Is this the end of the matter?

    How is it possible? The next day, the Yangzhou army lined up in order and began to attack the city.

    Last night, Shi Hui gathered a group of subordinates to brainstorm and see if there was any good way to turn defeat into victory.

    The result is very surprising. After discussing it for a whole night, except for many people getting two dark circles under their eyes, there was nothing gained at all.

    When the Yangzhou army attacked the city, they were woken up by their subordinates one by one. They were in a very bad state of mind at the moment.

    In just the first attack, the Yangzhou Army aggressively reached the top of the city and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the defenders.

    Shi Hui lost a total of 3,000 men before repelling the first wave of attacks, while his opponent only lost a few hundred men.

    Without contrast, there is no harm. They are defending the city, and they are beaten like birds.

    Countless ladders were set up, and wells towered over their heads.

    If this continues, Hepu may fall in one day.

    "My lord, give me three thousand men and horses, and I will go out and destroy the ladders and well gates!" The warriors volunteered in times of danger.

    "Uncle, why?" Shi Hui was surprised. The mountains and plains below the city were filled with enemy troops. Once they left, they would never come back.

    "I know that my lord has always doubted me, and I am willing to die to prove my loyalty to the Shi family!" Shi Wu said sadly and indignantly.

    "Okay! Uncle must come back, promise me, he must come back!" Shi Hui's eyes filled with tears.

    Shiyi glanced at Shiwu, always worried that this guy would run away.

    However, Shiwu did not answer the call and led 3,000 troops from another city gate, actually killing the ladder and the well.

    Gao Shun, who was in charge of frontline command, discovered the presence of this unit and immediately waved the command flag.

    When Lu Bu saw it, he galloped his horse forward and led his men to meet them, killing the three thousand men until they pissed their butts off.

    "Lu Feng is here first, the thief can't even think of taking a step forward!"

    When the soldiers and warriors saw this, they were not angry but happy, and screamed.

    "Well done! Let me experience your martial arts skills!"

    On the top of the city, everyone who had been watching the warriors could not take their eyes away, wanting to see clearly the duel between the two.

    The two horses gradually approached, and Lu Bu sent the warrior flying with a halberd. The latter soon lost his breath.

    Everyone on the city wall took a breath of cold air, especially Shi Hui, who couldn't accept that his righteous uncle died so cowardly.

    Seeing that the enemy troops leaving the city were completely lost, Gao Shun continued to command the siege calmly.

    The trapped camp was fearless and kept attacking the city wall. When the ladder was knocked down, it was immediately re-erected. When the ladder was broken, a new one was immediately put on.

    Not to mention Jinglan, it is full of sharpshooters, posing a great threat to the defenders.

    Such repeated attacks greatly increased the pressure on the defenders on the city wall.  For a moment, Shi Hui wanted to kneel down.

    "The last general calls for battle!" Shiqian and Shisong said in unison. Without destroying the ladders and wells, they would not be able to defend the city.

    Shiqian and Shisong are both outstanding disciples of the Shi family, and now even they have to lead troops into battle.

    ¡°Now that there are no scholars taking the lead, who will fight to the death?

    Seeing that Shi Hui was in despair and had no answer, the two simply ignored him. Each led a thousand men and horses and left the city from the left and right. One was responsible for attracting firepower, and the other was responsible for destroying the well barrier.

    The Jinglan poses the greatest threat and must be eliminated first.

    The scholars took the lead and directly called Lu Bu into formation.

    Lu Bu became so angry that he was killed in a few rounds, and he didn't even know his name.

    When Shisong saw Lu Bu being led away, he shouted and fought his way out, but was surrounded by the guards. Dianwei was not polite at all and cut him in half in an instant.

    Even though he was cut into two pieces, Shisong was not discouraged and still ordered his subordinates: "Hurry! Destroy the well gate!"

    Thousands of people in the tribe fought to the death, and no one surrendered.

    Dian Wei killed everyone in large numbers and was covered in blood. Only when the last person was killed did Shisong rest his eyes.

    Seeing the situation, Liu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. The Shi family was able to sit in Jiaozhou for so many years, not without some ability.

    "If he hadn't suddenly attacked Jiaozhi and forced Shi Xie to death, I'm afraid this battle would still be fought.

    "A generous burial!"

    Liu Ke¡¯s words made all soldiers stand in awe.

    On the city wall, Shi Hui was filled with grief and anger. How could he not feel heartbroken when so many relatives died in one fell swoop?

      Just as Shi Kuang was about to go out, he was tripped by Shi Yi, his eyes indicating: What are you pretending to be?

    Shi Kuang was originally a hot-blooded person, but he calmed down at this moment.

    "Cheng Gong, teach me! What else can I do now?" Shi Hui said.

    Cheng Bing¡¯s thoughts were complicated at the moment, and he didn¡¯t have any good ideas. He said: ¡°We are not afraid of fighting to the death with our lord, but why are we afraid that Liu Dingfang won¡¯t succeed?!¡±

    Shi Hui really cheered up a little and said: "Okay!"

    Therefore, Shi Hui arranged the arrangements more carefully and let the soldiers take turns to rest.  The city was still crowded with soldiers.

    Seeing that the trapped camp could not be attacked for a long time, Liu Ke felt a little distressed. He did not expect Shi Hui to be so able to defend the city.

    It would be great if he had a trebuchet or a ballista at this moment, and the attack would not be so difficult.

    In one night, he could only create so many things.

    "My lord, we have withdrawn our troops. We can't fight today." Guo Jia suggested.

    "Yes, it will only increase casualties. By tomorrow, the number of wells in our army will double, and Hepu can be beaten with one drum." Jia Xu also agreed.

    Liu Ke thought about it and felt it made sense, so he ordered the money to be withdrawn.

    Anyway, the city is there, you can¡¯t escape, it just takes two more days.

    Seeing the Yangzhou army retreating, Shi Hui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    "we won!"

    However, no one responded to him, and everyone was exhausted.

    If it hadn¡¯t been for the fact that several people from the scholar family had died in the battle, I¡¯m afraid they wouldn¡¯t have been able to hold on long ago.

    Seeing this situation, Shi Hui couldn't help but feel sad.

    Shi Yi took the opportunity and said: "My lord, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We should retreat at night! After this battle, the Marquis of Dongyang will definitely think that we will defend to the death, but if we do the opposite, we will definitely succeed."

    What success?  Escape successful?

    "Uncle, don't you have the heart to serve your country and your family?" Shi Hui scolded.

    "No, sir, don't forget, I am the governor of Hepu. I have been running Hepu for so many years, how can I not have any feelings? It's just that Yangzhou's army is so powerful that our army has no chance of winning. What's the use of persisting for two and three days?  ?Does my nephew think that Liu Dingfang can be defeated by perseverance? "

    In the end, Shi Yi even grabbed Shi Hui's sleeve and said, "Is the meaning of your existence just to hold on for those two or three days? In order to protect the last bit of honor of the Shi family, we have to escape and wait for a turn of events!"

    When Shi Hui heard this, it really made sense, and he couldn't help but look at Cheng Bing.

    Cheng Bing had a sad face and nodded.

    Seeing that everyone agreed, the topic became, how to escape and where to escape?

    Shi Yi believes that they should go to Hainan Island. There are many indigenous people on the island and there are many deep mountains and old forests, which is suitable for hiding.

    "But Shi Hui didn't want to live in hiding in Tibet, and insisted on returning to Jiaozhi. The city wall of Jiaozhi was tall and could be defended. Moreover, he could recruit tens of thousands more soldiers to make up 100,000 to defend the city.

    Because Liu Ke gave up his rule after emptying Jiaozhi's wealth, Jiaozhi is now an empty city.

    The two people with different opinions decided to divide their forces!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
