As footsteps sounded outside the door, bursts of shouts also reached Zhang Shiyi's ears.

"Everyone, listen, all the men in your family aged 16 to 45 should come out immediately to gather and go to the city wall to defend."

"If anyone dares to disobey orders, he will be severely punished."

When Mrs. Zhang heard the noise outside, her face suddenly changed with fright, "My son, hide quickly and don't go out. Once you go to the city wall, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back alive. What should I do at home?"

"The Sword Comes"

Zhang Shiyi was also surprised, but after looking at the situation at home, he felt a little calmer.

"Mom, don't worry. Just tell them now, and it should be fine."

After saying this, Zhang Shiyi quickly ran to the bed again, lowered his head and looked at Hua Mei, and said with a smile, "Hua Mei, please wait for me, I will be back as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the child on the ground and said, "My child, wait at home for your father to make porridge for you. Do you remember?"

"Dad, I remember."

Zhang Shiyi put down his child and strode outside the yard.

As soon as he reached the door, before he could reach out to open the door, he heard a loud shout from outside the door. Then the door was kicked open, and two soldiers rushed in from the door. Seeing Zhang Shiyi's eyes lit up, they immediately

Go forward and arrest people.

"This is good, the age is just right!"

Zhang Shiyi was caught by two soldiers, his expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "Master, please let this villain go. He has an old mother and a three-year-old child at home..."

Before he could finish speaking, a soldier snorted coldly, "Do you still have a wife lying on the bed?"

Zhang Shiyi was stunned when he heard these words. Just as he was about to nod, he was kicked on the waist by a soldier, "Go quickly, it's useless even if you have one."

Zhang Shiyi kicked out the door and saw a dozen men gathered outside the door, preparing to be sent back to the barracks.

Among them, two men had been beaten with wounds all over their faces, and their faces were full of pain.

Zhang Shiyi was pushed out of the door. He immediately saw a red-faced general and hurriedly wanted to step forward to explain.

But he never thought that the red-faced general looked here impatiently and waved his hand vigorously, "Take them away quickly, don't listen to their whining here."

Before Zhang Shiyi could say anything, he was escorted out of the alley and directly to the military camp.

After arriving at the military camp, Zhang Shiyi and others were driven to a corner of the school field.

Not long after, several more groups of people came over, and a general arrived in front of everyone.

"Everyone stand still!"

When everyone saw the soldier holding a sword behind the general, they did not dare to resist and could only stand up silently.

The general nodded with satisfaction, "From now on, you will be soldiers in the city. When daybreak, you will be sent to the city wall to prepare to defend the city."

At this point, the general waved his hand vigorously and said loudly, "Your task is very simple, that is to throw the stone down and hit it hard. Do you remember it?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded hurriedly, "We will remember it."

When it was almost dawn, Zhang Shiyi and other people were sent to the city wall.

Later, everyone was given a bowl of porridge with clear soup and water, and everyone temporarily suppressed their hunger.

Zhang Shiyi tasted the fragrance of the food in his mouth and felt that this was not bad, at least he could eat.

The eyes of the people next to him were also full of satisfaction.

But the good times did not last long. Not long after, when the sky was bright and the sun had not yet risen, the rumble of war drums suddenly came from the distance.

Winter winter winter!

At the moment when the war drums beat, groups of Huainan Army soldiers came to the city like a tide to form formations.

Zhang Shiyi listened to the rumbling war drums and looked at the sharp spear points and big knives on the opposite side. His heart was so frightened that the bowl of porridge he just drank had been completely digested by the coldness.

Woohoo!

As the desolate horn sounded, the Huainan Army soldiers like a tide began to launch a violent attack as usual.

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

When Zhang Shiyi was drinking porridge just now, he didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, but after seeing these soldiers rushing over, he suddenly felt dizzy with fright and almost turned around and wanted to leave.

Just when he had this idea, one of the people was so frightened that he screamed and turned around and ran away.

But before he could run a few steps, a soldier stepped forward and waved his sword. Zhang Shi only saw a flash of white light, and the civilian fell to the ground screaming.

The people who originally wanted to escape were trembling with fear when they saw this, and no one dared to run away anymore.

"Everyone, listen, the enemies are coming. Your task is to smash them down with rocks. Anyone who dares to neglect will be punished."

At this moment, Zhang Shiyi was trembling with fear when he heard the shouts of killing coming from outside.

The soldiers of the Huainan Army under the city wall had already passed through the rain of arrows, reached the edge of the city wall, set up a ladder, and began to launch a fierce charge.

Driven by the soldiers, Zhang Shiyi and others stretched out their trembling hands, picked up the stones on the ground, quickly ran to the city wall, and threw down the stones in their hands.

"Ahhh!"

Zhang Shiyi was already sweating profusely, but thinking of his wife and children at home, he tried to hold back the fear in his heart and followed the soldiers' instructions.

Zhang Shiyi was so strong that he threw several rocks and hit several Huainan Army soldiers. After the first time, the fear in his heart gradually lessened.

Zhang Shiyi threw stones down like a machine. When he felt a little more relaxed, the Huainan Army launched an aggressive attack.

Just when Zhang Shiyi rushed to the city wall with a stone, a Huainan Army soldier with a fierce face had already rushed to the city wall with a broadsword.

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

Zhang Shi was stunned by this scene, and for a moment, he was stunned on the spot.

A trace of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Huainan Army soldier, and the sword in his hand was waved in the air. Zhang Shishi, who was in a daze, was immediately chopped down to the ground.

Some Liu Bei Army soldiers with spears in their hands rushed forward and beat down the Huainan Army soldiers who rushed up.

The stalemate on the city walls resumed.

Zhang Shiyi breathed rapidly, looked up at the sky, thought of his family, sighed feebly, and closed his eyes.

…

"Mom, when will dad come back?"

When the flower girl lying on the bed heard these words, she held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes and forced a smile.

"Son, your father will be back soon, because he will come back to make wild vegetable porridge for you!"

The child said obediently, "Mom, I'm going to get some firewood and wait for dad to come back."

Hua Mei looked at the child's leaving figure and suddenly burst into tears.
