But this was the first time he had seen such a disparity in strength.

Originally, during the expedition of the Orderers, players faced demons several times their own in Linyuan City. But at that time, players had cannons, crossbows, gold juice and other equipment to defend the city, as well as return weapons.

The blessing of the power of the Order.

But now, Zhao Haiping has nothing.

He could only draw his bow and arrow, and shoot with one arrow the rebel soldier at the front who was trying to climb the ladder to the city.

"kill!"

They had been mobilized before the war, and all personal belongings had been distributed to the soldiers. Although the army was in a desperate situation, it at least had some morale.

In a desperate situation, Zhao Haiping took the lead and kept shooting left and right with bows and arrows at the rebels below, while other soldiers were also fighting bloody battles.

…

In Zhao Haiping's field of vision, time passed very quickly.

It felt like the battle had only lasted about an hour, and the sky was already getting dark.

The battle lasted for a whole day, from dawn to night.

The rebels were finally repulsed.

At this time, the city walls were already piled with corpses, including those of the rebels and those of our own people.

Many soldiers lay exhausted among the corpses, drinking millet porridge that had just been cooked in a pot.

After Zhao Haiping and other soldiers had eaten enough, they spent some time pushing some corpses in important positions down the city, and then they were allowed to lie down with their clothes on and seize the time to rest.

However, this break did not last long.

In the early morning, Huang Xianzhi's army launched another fierce attack.

This time, the fight lasted from early morning to afternoon.

For Zhao Haiping, a more serious situation occurred: all the bows and arrows guarding the city were exhausted, and the soldiers could only lift stones and hit the rebels.

In the afternoon, after a short rest, Huang Xianzhi's army launched another attack that night and once again held firm all night.

But this time, even the stones that were moved to the city before were thrown away.

…

For Zhao Haiping, the battle process was lackluster and there was nothing particularly worth mentioning.

After all, most of Huang Xianzhi's army are farmers who have lost their land and are desperate, or various bandits and bandits. They do not have any decent tactics at all, and they do not have any clever siege equipment, so no matter what kind of siege equipment they come from,

From a technical perspective, except for their strength in numbers, they have nothing to do with a powerful army.

Therefore, in the process of attacking the city, they just repeatedly carried the ladder to the city, climbed it, and then got stoned down, and climbed again...

This cycle continues.

The so-called Shence Army commanded by Zhao Haiping is basically a group of rabble. Fortunately, they occupy the advantage of the location from a high position. They only need to stab the rebels who climb up with their spears, or throw stones at those who climb the ladder.

Can solve most problems.

This sounds a bit like novice chickens pecking each other, but in fact...it is indeed novice chickens pecking each other.

Otherwise, Zhao Haiping would not have been able to successfully hold the entire Tongguan for three days and three nights with just the men at hand.

But at this time, Zhao Haiping finally reached a point of no return.

Because after all, Huang Xianzhi has a 600,000-strong army. Although Tongguan has a steep terrain and is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is impossible for Huang Xianzhi to really deploy a 600,000-strong army. But at least, these rebels can take turns to attack the city without rest.

The defenders were almost destroyed by exhaustion and hunger, not to mention that they had already finished throwing stones.

The fall of Tongguan is a foregone conclusion.

For Zhao Haiping, this battle did not last very long. "Dark Sand" will speed up the flow of time for some less important plots without the player realizing it, so after successive battles, although Zhao Haiping

The body feels tired and sleepy from the inside, but the mind is still clear.

But compared to the physical fatigue, the mental discomfort concerned him more.

He had doubts about the significance of his fight at this time.

Why should I work for that dog emperor who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun and the psychopathic eunuch?

Obviously, the real Zhang Chengfan in history must have had similar thoughts while guarding Tongguan.

In the past, the emperor, eunuchs, officials, and sons of wealthy families in Chang'an City were all sensual and reckless, eating the wealth of the exploited people and getting fat.

And those poor people, such as farmers who have lost their land, are probably no better than ants in their eyes.

But now, Huang Xianzhi's army is attacking. The emperor, eunuchs, officials, and wealthy children are driving these poor people to the battlefield. They even only give them three days of rations, but hope that they will work hard for them to stop Huang Xianzhi's attack.

The army.

Let them escape easily and continue to enjoy their glory and wealth.

Why?

If the original Zhang Chengfan was an ancient man who still had some loyal and patriotic thoughts in his heart and had a natural hatred for Huang Xianzhi's rebels, then for Zhao Haiping, he was more inclined to Huang Xianzhi's side in his heart.

What is this 600,000-strong army?

They are 600,000 people who were oppressed until they had no other choice.

Just like previous peasant uprisings, Huang Xianzhi was defeated by the government troops countless times, but it was able to make a comeback every time.

If you just walk around casually, you can immediately raise an army of tens of thousands of people again.

The common people's hair is like a leek, but it will come back to life after being cut, and its head is like a chicken's, and it will crow again after being cut.

If the people are not afraid of death, why should they be afraid of death?

As a person with modern education, Zhao Haiping has natural sympathy and compassion for these peasant uprisings. And comparing the two, it is obvious that the fleeing Liang Xizong and the eunuch Tian Lingzi are the ones who should be eradicated.

Thinking of this, Zhao Haiping called over several of his trusted followers who fought bravely and were covered in blood.

"Tongguan can no longer be defended.

"Put on common people's clothes and fight out!"

…

At the same time, Chu Ge is also struggling in the illusion of trial.

But unlike Zhao Haiping, he had already sent it at the speed of light.

It was certainly due to one reason that his military command ability was not as good as that of Zhao Haiping, but his death so quickly was the result of his deliberate attempts.

And the conclusion after trying it is...

Sure enough, Zhang Chengfan's identity is not something he must play.

Although Chu Ge is a scribe player, he also has experience in commanding operations. Although he is not as good as Zhao Haiping through the guidance of Deng Yuanjing and Han Fuyue, it is not possible to lead this army to defend Tongguan for two or three days.

question.

He can use Haoran's righteousness to inspire these soldiers.

But after Chu Ge’s analysis, he felt that this was probably not a step that must be overcome.

Because when playing Zhang Chengfan, the selection interface for talent and skill cards did not appear in his field of vision.

Moreover, Zhang Chengfan's identity and mission are not applicable to all players.

So Chu Ge quickly died. When he led the Shence Army through Huazhou, he deliberately did not go to the warehouse to get military rations, but instead urged these people to advance to Tongguan even though they were hungry.

As a result, he was naturally killed by mutinous soldiers.

But this also happened to verify Chu Ge’s guess.

After Zhang Chengfan died, Huang Xianzhi's army broke through Tongguan at a faster speed.

Then, an army of 600,000 troops marched towards Chang'an in a mighty manner.

Chu Ge once again looked at what happened next from God's perspective.

…

The army marched into Chang'an in great strength.

Not only is this majestic city undefended, it is simply a welcoming place.

Liang Xizong and Tian Lingzi had already fled in panic with their guards, just like Qi Yingzong tried to escape from the capital.

However, at this time, there was no minister in the court who could stop the emperor and coordinate the capital's defense like Li Boxi.

As expected, Liang Xizong, like Qi Yingzong, slipped away quietly without notifying any ministers or royal family members.

So, while many people were still at a loss, Huang Xianzhi's army had arrived outside Chang'an City.

The common people rushed to the streets to watch, as if welcoming the king's master.

Chu Ge sighed silently.

Obviously, the absurd behaviors of Liang Xizong and Tian Lingzi in the capital had made people angry and resentful. Within a few years, they had completely lost the support of the people.

For these people, it may be time to change their dynasties.
