The fierce attack of the Sui army caught Zhang Shihong off guard, especially the powerful power of the heavy stone-treating army made him feel scared, but he was also a powerful general who broke out from the dead. After the initial panic, he quickly calmed down.

"Bow and arrow shot"

He found that the Sui army's arrows had already suppressed the defenders and shouted loudly in a hurry. At this time, a soldier rushed to report, "General, the wide ladder of the Sui army has been put on the top of the city."

Zhang Shihong also saw that in the Xicheng section, several Sui army ladders were mounted on the top of the city. It was particularly clear under the moonlight. The huge iron hook hooked the battlements, and only dozens of soldiers were defending him. He was so anxious that he was sweating in a cold sweat and stomped his feet and cursed: "The spearman should be on the top of his body, don't block it like an idiot."

Under his command, hundreds of spearmen rushed up to the battlements, blocked the ladders, and rolled wood and stones smashed down like hail

Sui soldiers rushed up the ladders, but the huge rocks and wood that hit on the surface made Sui soldiers scream and roll down the city. Not only did one ladder encounter setbacks, but all the dozen ladders that were on the city wall encountered tenacious resistance from the enemy. Heavy huge rocks rolled down the ladders, and instantly smashed over a dozen Sui soldiers.

Seeing that the emergency attack was difficult to work, Niu Jinda immediately called out: "Bow and arrow cover to attack in a queue."

There is a lieutenant in front of each platoon, and there is a general Lang in the five platoons. General Lang received Niu Jinda's order and immediately transferred hundreds of crossbowmen to suppress the defenders at the city gate with dense arrows.

The captain commanded the attack of each ladder, and the Sui army no longer charged forward in a row of five people, raised their shields and spears, and lined up slowly.

Although suppressed by the Sui army's bow and arrow, the rolling wood and stone did not stop completely. They continued to roll down from the city wall and smashed at the Sui army soldiers. The arrows on both sides of the city wall were as dense as rain. They used shields as cover to withstand the arrows under the city, and fired arrows from both sides to the Sui army on the ladders.

At this time, the iron hook of a ladder was broken by the enemy. The ladder was pushed out of the city wall by the defenders with an iron fork, and turned backwards and the Sui soldiers fled in scattered areas, dozens of people were killed

Despite the tenacious resistance of the defenders, the Sui army soldiers rushed to the city, and the defenders speared up, and hundreds of offensive and defensive armies fought fiercely at the city wall in front of each platoon.

At this time, the night was already deep, and countless torches were lit up on the city and under the city, which was about to shine in front of Yu Pass as daytime. The desire for killing in Luo Shixin's heart, which was eager to fight with the soldiers, was aroused. He did not want to be a spectator. It was not his Luo Shixin's style. He could no longer control his inner excitement and said to Yang Yuanqing: "Master, let me fight."

Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and said lightly: "You are the leader, I am not, you decide for yourself."

Luo Shixin bit his lip tightly and turned around and said loudly: "If I die in battle, Niu Jinda will be the main general."

His big iron spear swung in the air, urging his horse to run towards the top of the city. The more than a dozen generals behind him were full of concern. The general did not agree, and the general actually went to fight.

At this time, the shame and disgust in Cheng Yaojin's heart also made him feel brave. He swung his axe and shouted: "Brother Luo, don't worry, brother, come and help you."

He also urged the horse to rush towards Luo Shixin. Yang Yuanqing did not stop him. He looked at Luo Shixin calmly and ran towards the city. He could understand Luo Shixin's mood. This was a kind of courage to lead the way. Not every coach was as he was. Many coaches were willing to lead the soldiers to charge. His master Zhang Xutuo was such a coach. This courage to be the first and was inherited by Luo Shixin.

Luo Shixin held a heavy shield and a spear in his hand and rushed up a ladder. He turned around and shouted, "Care with me."

There were already piles of corpses on the ladder. The first wave rushed up and the Sui army lost more than half of the losses and was forced to retreat. The remaining hundred soldiers followed him with the inspiration of Luo Shixin.

A thick and long rolling wood fell down, and Luo Shixin did not hit him hard. He slanted and used his shield to push the rolling wood outward. The rolling wood flew out of the ladder. Luo Shixin ran several steps in a row, only one meter away from the top of the city. Dozens of spear soldiers raised their spears and stabbed him with sharp spears. The spear tip was sharp and stabbed from three sides.

Luo Shixin blocked the spear on the left with his shield. The big iron spear quickly thrust and was elusive. In an instant, four or five people were pierced through the throat and fell to the ground. He suddenly roared, and the spear shook, pierced the chest of an enemy captain. He actually picked him in the air with one arm and flew out.

Luo Shixin's brave general of the soldiers on the city wall was so scared that they were out of their minds. They shouted together. The soldiers turned around and fled. Luo Shixin simply threw away his shield, jumped onto the city wall, shouted loudly, "Take your life."

He was like a tiger like a flock of sheep, and he rushed into the enemy group. Both humans and ghosts were killed, and they were invincible. The hundred Sui soldiers following him also rushed to the city. They were inspired by the courage of the chief general and rushed towards the enemy. Luo Shixin's bravery opened a passage to the city. The large group of Sui soldiers began to rush to the city continuously.

On another ladder, Cheng Yaojin swung his axe and killed more than a dozen people and rushed to the top of the city. However, he did not rush into the enemy group like Luo Shixin, but waved his hand back, "Brothers, rush up."

Hundreds of soldiers rushed up from behind him, Cheng Yao Jinli Axe stood at the top of the city, majestic, radiant, and shouted loudly, encouraging the soldiers to fight bravely to fight the enemy.

As more and more Sui soldiers rushed to the city, the battle situation gradually turned to the Sui army. The Sui army's war drums were excited and excited, urging Sui soldiers to swarm upwards. On more than twenty undamaged ladders, there were densely filled with the Sui army siege. Under the city were the overwhelming Sui soldiers. The drums were thunderous, and huge fireballs crossed the city and shot into the pass. The blazing fireballs crossed the night sky.

On the top of the city, Zhang Shihong was already shouting with great strength, but the soldiers could no longer hear his shouts. The three-mile-long city wall was in chaos. Thousands of Sui troops rushed to the city. It was difficult to distinguish between enemies and us in the night. Only by getting close can we tell whether it is an enemy or one. Screams and curses resounded across the city.

With the loss of defense, more and more Yan soldiers realized that the situation was hopeless and fled to the city. However, Zhang Shihong was red in his eyes and led hundreds of dead soldiers to fight fiercely with the Sui army at the top of the city.

Luo Shixin stared at Zhang Shihong. This was the enemy's chief general. Killing could determine the situation of the battle, but the soldiers were dense, so he could not rush up. One of his soldiers snatched a spear from his hand, jumped onto the battlement, and waved his arms hard. A spear passed by a wind shadow in the darkness and stabbed the enemy's chief general.

In the dark night, Zhang Shihong screamed, and the spear pierced his chest and nailed him to the ground.

The death of the chief general caused the enemy to collapse quickly. The defenders threw spears and surrendered. The gate of Linyuguan opened the huge rocks of the gate, and the city cave opened wide. Tens of thousands of Sui troops rushed into the city.

The sky is getting brighter, and the waves on the sea are vast. A round of red rose from the sea level, emitting thousands of rays of light, dyeing Linyu Pass a layer of magnificent color

Yang Yuanqing stood at the city wall with his hands behind his back, staring at the sea from afar, and felt a sudden enlightenment in his heart.

"Luo Shixin, apologizes to the general manager"

Suddenly, Luo Shixin's voice came from behind. Yang Yuanqing looked back at him and saw him kneeling on one knee, lowering his head, clasping his fists high, "Tell me, what are you guilty?" Yang Yuanqing asked without saying a word

Luo Shixin considered it for nearly two hours. Although Yang Yuanqing did not stop him from joining the war, as the main general, he gave up the responsibility of commanding the entire army and rushed to the city like a charging general. This violated the duties of the main general, and Luo Shixin also began to feel annoyed in his heart.

He didn't know how to explain, so he could only apologize. Yang Yuanqing smiled faintly, "I said that you are the head coach, everything is up to you. If you feel that you are not doing well, you can blame yourself, or explain your inappropriateness to the soldiers, and not say anything to me. I won't care about how you fight. I just care about the outcome of the war. If I can't get the Linyu Pass, I will ask you for guilt."

In the past two years, Yang Yuanqing has gradually delegated power to his generals, gradually letting them stand in front of each other. For example, Xu Shiji is in the southern part of Hebei, Qin Qiong can also lead a large army to confront Dou Jiande, Su Dingfang manages the Western Regions, Pei Xingyan is in charge of the six counties in Guanbei, Luo Shixin fights Liaodong, etc.

Since he let them stand alone, he would not care about some details. As a superior, he paid attention to the result rather than the process. How to fight is the coach's own business. Therefore, when Luo Shixin asked him for instructions last night, he would downplay it and not express his opinion.

Although he said that, he could not completely ignore it. For example, after Luo Shixin proposed to transport soldiers to the pass by a ship, he denied it. This is also a very contradictory thing. Yang Yuanqing could not avoid it. He could only respect Luo Shixin in all details.

For example, Yang Yuanqing asked Cheng Yaojin to be the siege lord general, but in the end, Luo Shixin replaced Niu Jinda, and Yang Yuanqing did not interfere. As for the trivial matter of Luo Shixin leading his army to charge, he would not take it seriously.

Luo Shixin already understood what the general manager meant. The general manager just cares whether he could take Linyu Pass or not. How to fight it is his own business, which means he doesn't care about his charge to the city.

Luo Shixin was moved and immediately clasped his fists and said, "I understand, I will not bother the general manager about such trivial matters in the future."

Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, "But if I am the head coach and you go to the battle without my order, then you will be careful of being beaten."

Luo Shixin scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "I understand it."

"Okay, since you have already taken the Linyu Pass, what are you going to fight next?"

Luo Shixin pondered for a moment and said, "I have a request. I want to call a hundred warships. I wonder if the general manager agrees?"

"This is no problem, but have you considered it? Are there enough crew members to operate the warship?"

"I have considered that the shipbuilding institute can adjust two thousand ship craftsmen to temporarily control the ships. Bei Zhi has recruited two thousand boatmen with experience in inland shipping from Youzhou to assist the boat craftsmen, and can basically deal with one hundred sea ships."

"Since you've thought it through, I can agree."
