Chapter 217 Battle for East Pass

“Don’t relax for a moment!”

"We must delay the time until the hour of Xu, so that it will be easier to do things after dark!" Hu Chen explained.

Hearing this, Zhou Changsheng nodded vigorously.

"Yes! Understood!"

On the East Gate City Wall, while the two sides were talking, Wu Guogui led his troops to the front of the gate below the city!
When this group of more than a thousand soldiers were less than a hundred steps away from the pass, they suddenly split into two teams!

Go straight to the two piles of corpses that had been piled up earlier!
Because of the high frequency of enemy attacks before and the intensive fighting, it was very difficult to have time to clean up these two places, so we had no choice but to stay and give up!
At this moment, Wu Guogui thought he had found a good opportunity, so he aimed at the weak position of the mountain of corpses and led his troops to attack fiercely in an attempt to pry open a gap!

Whoosh whoosh!
The enemy's arrows shot randomly onto the city wall from below!
Amid the noise and chaos, Hu Chen pulled Zhou Changsheng to his side.

"Changsheng! Quick!"

"Take the men to guard the southern section of the corpse mountain!"

"I'm going to the northern section to hold the fort!"

"Remember! Don't let the enemy soldiers take advantage of the chaos to come up!"

"Pour kerosene when necessary, golden soup!"

"Don't be careless!" Li Huchen shouted.

"Okay! I understand!" Changsheng also shouted back to accept the order.

After saying this, the two of them quickly took action without further ado.

But, just as Yu Huchen set out and took a step towards Beiduan!

suddenly!

Boom boom boom, several loud noises!

The tiger squat cannon brought by Wu Sangui's reinforcements began to show its power!
Launch the first salvo!
Amidst the hail of bullets, as luck would have it, a shell hit Hu Chen squarely in the direction he was standing!
Hu Chen turned his head to look instantly, and was immediately horrified. He exerted all his strength and suddenly pounced forward!
Thanks to Hu Chen's agility, as he dodged, the artillery shell exploded behind him!

at once!

The bullet that was shooting through the wall exploded, sending rocks and wood chips flying everywhere!

"what!"

"Captain!"

"Captain!" Zhou Changsheng heard the explosion behind him at close range and was shaken by the aftermath. He quickly turned over and shouted!
He was worried about Li Huchen's safety, and was so angry that he didn't care about the danger of artillery fire. He ran hurriedly towards Huchen's location!

After a moment, the smoke and dust cleared!
Hu Chen lay on his back, crawling on the ground, wriggling with difficulty.

His whole body was buried under a layer of earth and rocks, his ears were buzzing, and he suddenly felt a splitting headache!

"Captain!"

"Captain, wake up! Wake up!"

"Oh! Captain, Captain." Zhou Changsheng roared at the top of his lungs, panicking.

Another moment!

Hu Chen tilted his head and straightened his neck tremblingly.

"Bah! Bah!"

"Ouch! Holy shit!"

"It's going to blow me to death!"

While cursing, Li Huchen forced his arms open and struggled to straighten his body.

The whole body felt like it was being torn apart by pain, making the black and strong man in front of him suffer terribly.

After all, the location where the bullet exploded was a little too close. Even though Hu Chen had a strong physique, it was like being hit by a few hammers from a strong man. It was really not easy for him to wake up!

Zhou Changsheng, who was standing nearby, saw that the captain was about to get up, so he hurriedly supported him and dragged Hu Chen to the side of the wall!
"Captain!"

“Are you feeling better?!”

"Quick! Let me see if there are any damaged parts!"

Changsheng was stunned and said that. After that, he started to touch and pat Dehuchen's body all over.

"Hey!"

"What are you doing?!"

"Where the hell are you touching?"

"Get out of here!"

"Fuck off!"

Hu Chen was shocked when he saw him making movements, and he started to curse at the top of his voice, very loudly!

Hearing this, Changsheng Manghui returned.

"Captain!"

"It's not bad! They're still intact!"

But at this moment, Hu Chen stared at Changsheng with both eyes, but it seemed that he only saw Changsheng's mouth smacking, but no sound came out! So he frowned.

"what?"

"You, what did you say?!"

Amid the hail of bullets, the surrounding environment was noisy, Hu Chen's voice became louder and louder, and there was a buzzing in his ears, as if he could not hear anything else!

Seeing this situation, Zhou Changsheng was also stunned!

"Eternal life!"

"Damn it! My ears seem to have been blown out by a cannon!"

"I can't hear anything!"

Hu Chen brushed off the dirt on his clothes and armor, wiped his face, and picked his ears with a grimace.

"what?!"

"This, this, what should we do?!" Changsheng became even more anxious after hearing this.

Right now the enemy is launching a massive attack on the city. If Hu Chen, as the commander-in-chief, makes a mistake, how will the entire army continue to fight?

But just when Changsheng was panicking and at a loss, Hu Chen straightened up, got off the wall with his back, and then a pair of big hands grabbed his shoulders!
"Changsheng! All right!"

"Stop being so fussy here!"

"Don't worry, I'm tough and won't die anytime soon!"

"There's nothing wrong with just wasting time. Hurry up!"

"Hurry up and go to the southern section to hold it for me!"

"I'll go to the northern section myself!"

"Don't waste time, go!"

Hu Chen was worried about the situation and the battle situation. He ignored the pain all over his body, gritted his teeth, and forced himself to stand up from a half squat position.

As he spoke, he suddenly pushed Zhou Changsheng out with both hands!
"oops!"

"What are you looking at?"

"Go the fuck away!"

"You better go quickly, kid!"

"Wait for me to kick you?!"

"Get out of here!"

Needless to say, after Hu Chen made his statement, he did not delay any longer and limped off to the northern section!

Zhou Changsheng, who was standing behind him, saw the captain like this, and took a deep breath and no longer hesitated.

He turned around and ran out towards the southern section of the slope of corpses!

The setting sun looks like blood!

The battle in the whole city lasted until the evening!

Wu Guogui's troops fought desperately and their momentum was strong!

But unfortunately, the garrison of Dongguan, the brave soldiers and Hu Chen's proper command, as time went by, the Wu Guogui soldiers were useless and he himself was killed in battle outside the city of Dongguan!

A part of the front camp of the Guanning Army, two thousand soldiers and horses, were all killed in front of this small city and achieved nothing!

Afterwards, Hu Xinshui, a subordinate of Wu Sangui, also led troops to launch several rounds of continuous small-scale attacks.

The soldiers in the left camp have the support of the tiger squatting cannon from behind, and with the use of ladders, flying claws, trench carts and other equipment brought by the army, their momentum is even more powerful!
Therefore, during this period, there were two cases where the enemy attacked from outside the city to the top of the city!

In response to this, Hu Chen, Chang Sheng and other generals took the lead and led the soldiers to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy inside the city wall!

Defend Dongguan to the death!

In the hand-to-hand combat and desperate fighting on the city wall, the enemy's arrogance was gradually defeated, and they returned to attack and defense outside the city.

Many of Hu Chen's soldiers from the East Gate and the guards on the city wall were also killed and wounded, with corpses and blood everywhere, making the place a mess!
17:45 pm (:).

The offensive paused, giving us a chance to catch our breath.

"Brothers! Hurry up and prepare your weapons and armaments!"

"Alive! Able to move!"

"Stand up straight for me!"

"Before dark, we must keep the enemy soldiers out of the East Gate!"

"Um... military supplies? Where are the military supplies?!"

"Hurry and bring the food and drinks up to the city!"

"hurry up!"

"Let the brothers have something hot to eat!"

Hu Chen's legs and feet were still not very agile, but fortunately his ears, which had been damaged by the bombardment, had gradually recovered and he could now roughly hear some noises!
