Comprehensive comic: The Demon King from Another World returns to daily life!

Under the cover of Tai Shici, Zhou Yu successfully reunited with Zhu Zhi and led the remaining defeated soldiers all the way towards Liling, not arriving until noon.

At this time, Liling was already an empty city. There were only three hundred defenders inside, and it was impossible to defend it.

Zhou Yu didn't want to defend at all. After he arrived at Liling, he asked Zhu Zhi to count the troops and horses, while waiting for Tai Shici, and at the same time sent spies out to inquire about the situation.

Although hope is very slim, Zhou Yu will never give up hope until the end.

"Ziyi, you must come back!"Zhou Yu clenched his fists and looked north from time to time.

At this time, Zhu Zhi finished counting the troops and horses, and came over and said:"Captain, we only have over 10,000 troops now."

Zhou Yu's eyes were bloodshot, and after hearing the news, his face became even more gloomy.

Since Pan Zhang and Dong Xi lost one after another, Zhou Yu actually only had 25,000 soldiers and horses left in his hands out of the 30,000.

During this retreat, Dong Xi led 5,000 men by water. Calculated this way, there were only 15,000 of the 30,000 troops left, which was a total loss of more than half.

Upon hearing this result, Zhou Yu's eyes dimmed, and he was killed twice in a row. Liu Jue suffered a huge defeat at his hands, and now he had some self-doubt.

But after a while, Zhou Yu regained his momentum and said:"The army immediately moved to Nanchang City.

Zhu Zhi sighed and said,"Don't you wait for Ziyi?""

Zhou Yu's eyes were red and he said:"If Ziyi could escape, he would have joined us by now. I'm afraid he has fallen into the enemy's hands.

Zhu Zhi was silent for a while, and then said:"I will order the army to move out right now.""

Just when Zhou Yu was preparing to go to Nanchang, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led an army of 7,000 people, riding a very fast ship, and had arrived outside Nanchang City ahead of him.

Nanchang is the seat of Yuzhang, and Zhou Yu came from Chai before. After Sang was defeated and retreated, he stationed his army here.

Since Chaisang served as a barrier before, the walls of Nanchang City were not as tall and thick as Chaisang. Moreover, after Zhou Yu led an army of 30,000 to attack Chaisang, Nanchang's defenders There are only two thousand.

The city is tall and strong, but the garrison is not very strong, and the city wall stretches for nearly ten miles. How can the garrison in the city defend it?

"Ashore!"

Gan Ning looked at the nearby city of Nanchang, and immediately ordered his soldiers to dock the ships along the coast. Soon, fifty ships docked in an orderly manner.

After docking, the soldiers on the ships lowered their gangplanks, and seven thousand ships The soldiers disembarked from the boat to assemble.

Like most cities in ancient times, Nanchang was also close to the river, and Gan Ning and the others were not far from the city. They were soon discovered by the defenders of Nanchang.

Looking at the 'yellow' hanging on the bow With two big flags and 'Gan', a soldier suddenly exclaimed:"Who is that flag with the word 'yellow'? Is it General Huang Gai? But who is the flag with the character 'Gan'?"

"idiot! Those are clearly Huang Zhong and Gan Ning from Jiangxia. The enemy is attacking! Hurry up and close the city gate!"The Sima guarding the city was covered in cold sweat. After giving the order quickly, he quickly asked someone to report it to the county magistrate.

"General Huang, do you think we should attack hard or persuade us to surrender?"Gan Ning looked at Huang Zhong. After all, in terms of seniority, Huang Zhong was older.

"Don't talk nonsense to them. There shouldn't be many defenders in Nanchang City now. Let's attack the city directly. We will surely capture it soon! Huang Zhong said and glanced at the top of the city of Nanchang.

The city wall of Nanchang is so long that if all 7,000 people are spread out, it will be difficult for the defenders to resist. Taking Nanchang will be very simple.

Gan Ning nodded and said to his soldiers:"Carry down the long siege ladder and prepare to attack the city immediately."

At this time, the melodious sound of trumpets has already sounded in Nanchang City, and the defenders at the top of the city are very nervous. How can Jiangxia's army come to attack Nanchang? Isn't the

Governor Zhou Yu attacking Chaisang in front?

Besides, Nanchang There are only two thousand defenders now. If they are to be dispersed within the four city walls, each side only has 500 people. For a city nearly ten miles long, 500 people are really not enough to fill the gap. At this time, the county magistrate of Nanchang has received The defender's report almost scared him out of his wits. He immediately rode a horse and ran all the way, and finally arrived at the top of the city.

Seeing the enemy formation outside the city, he was afraid that the number of the enemy troops was nearly ten thousand. With the two men in his city, Thousands of people, can this...can this be defended?

The county magistrate's mind was spinning rapidly. I don't know what is going on with Zhou Yu now. Since the enemy has come to attack Nanchang, I'm afraid the situation with Zhou Yu is not optimistic either.

And the surrounding areas of Nanchang The closest thing to a city is to build a city, but it takes more than a day to go back and forth, and there are not many soldiers and horses to build a city!

The county magistrate gritted his teeth and said:"Ask all the soldiers to defend the city, and they must defend it with all their strength!"

But, can it really be defended? The county magistrate was not sure.

At this time, outside the city, Gan Ning's soldiers had already moved all the long ladders off the boat. With the order, the mighty army Fighting towards Nanchang City.

On top of the city, the palms of the Sima guarding the city were covered with sweat. Looking at the thousands of people rushing up from the city, he was also considering whether to escape.

But as a Sima, if he abandoned the city and escaped , the result can only be beheaded by Wu Hou.

Like this Sima, the soldiers on the top of the city were also very nervous. Due to the sudden arrival of the enemy, they had no time to prepare the supplies to defend the city in a short period of time.

Under the city, Huang Zhong ordered 3,000 men to attack the city from the north gate. There were 1,000 men at the west gate and 1,000 men at the east gate to pretend to attack, while the rest of the men began to shout loudly.

"The defenders in the city heard that Zhou Yu had been defeated and surrendering would save him from death!"

"What? The governor was defeated!"When the defenders of Nanchang City heard this, they immediately became panicked, especially the county magistrate, who was already considering whether it was time to open the city and surrender.

Gan Ning, however, held the iron sword in his hand, leaned slightly back, and raised his head. He glanced at the city and then said loudly:"Whoever is the first to kill on the city will get a reward of fifty taels!"

Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Jiangxia soldiers roared in unison and quickly rushed to the gate of Nanchang City.

"quick! Shoot quickly!"The county magistrate commanded in a panic. The already nervous archer subconsciously loosened the bow string in his hand.

Suddenly, sparse arrows were shot towards the enemy troops below the city, causing no harm at all. It was just scratching an itch.

Soon, hundreds of long ladders were set up on the city wall, and Jiangxia soldiers began to scramble towards the top of the city.

"It’s over! What are you all doing!"The county magistrate was on the verge of tears. Seeing that the first enemy army had rushed to the top of the city, he suddenly had a decision in his mind.

"surrender! We surrender! Open the city gate quickly!"The county magistrate hurriedly shouted. Since Nanchang City cannot be defended, it is more important to save their lives.

The soldiers guarding the city surrendered after hearing the county magistrate's call. They had no fighting spirit and immediately gave up resistance.

After a while, the gate of Nanchang City was opened. Huang Zhong and Gan Ning looked at each other and smiled. This time, they took Nanchang down without any effort.

"In this way, Zhou Yu's escape route has been cut off by us. Let's just wait here for him to come."Huang Zhong laughed loudly, with the joy of victory on his face.

"That’s right!"Gan Ning followed with a smile and said, as expected, as long as you occupy Chaisang, you can occupy wherever you want in the vast land of Jiangdong!
