Tancheng was originally one of the important cities in Mingzhou.
Back then, Jing Ling had set foot in this city more than once to eliminate the rebels.
Today, he is still stationed in this city.
Outside, the army of Dashun was surrounded.
The Dashun Kingdom spent a huge price to trap Jing Ling in this city.
Tancheng is now short of water and food. If Jing Ling hadn't encouraged the soldiers every day, I'm afraid many of them would have simply given up.
Jing Ling stood on the city wall, frowning.
He wanted to sigh, but couldn't.
Now that Tancheng is surrounded, he is the spiritual leader and pillar of the soldiers.
Therefore, he must not show any signs of decadence or panic.
Otherwise, the soldiers will become more panicked, slack off, or even run away.
The armor on Jing Ling's body has been damaged, and there are thick blood stains in many places.
He had no time to tidy up and slept in his armor every day because the army outside the city would attack at any time.
"Grand Governor, General Guan Zheng has been out of the city for seven days, and there is still no result. I'm afraid..." Someone said to Jing Ling with an ugly face.
After talking about it, I started to hesitate.
No one wants to see that happen.
In terms of military force alone, Guan Zheng is second only to Jing Ling in Fenghuo Camp.
"Bang!" Jing Ling struck the ground with his spear, making a huge sound.
His eyes were burning with anger, and he wanted to look up to the sky and scream.
From here to Mingzhou City, it only takes five days at most.
As for Guan Zheng, there has been no news for seven days.
Jing Ling understood that Guan Zheng had probably been killed.
"Grand Governor, the enemy did not bring the body of General Guan Zheng. The general believes that General Guan Zheng may still be alive."
At this time, someone said to Jing Ling.
This sentence instantly ignited Jing Ling's mood and made his eyes shine.
Yes, Guan Zheng might still be alive, and they still have a chance.
Every time Dashun killed a messenger, his body would remain outside the city gate.
But this time, it didn't.
Therefore, Guan Zheng may not have been killed by Dashun.
Guan Zheng was the messenger they sent out for the third time, heading to Mingzhou City to deliver a message.
Mingzhou City is the closest to Tan City, and there are 30,000 Fenghuo Camp troops stationed nearby.
As long as they can come to support, the crisis in Tancheng can be resolved.
However, the Dashun Kingdom made careful arrangements and trapped Jing Ling in Tancheng. How could they let him go so easily?
It was different from when we attacked Okawa Kingdom.
On this battlefield, Tianjia also joined in.
For the first time, Long Wei took the initiative to leave the city and go to Mingzhou City to move reinforcements.
However, what they finally waited for was Long Wei's body.
Long Wei was killed by the powerful master of Tianjia, and his body was thrown outside the city gate.
Surrounded by Tianjia's masters and an army of 80,000, even the Dragon Guard could not break out.
Jing Ling spent a huge price to get Long Wei's body back, and the battle was even more brutal.
If it weren't for Jing Ling taking the Revolving Pill and forcibly improving his strength, he might not have been able to escape.
Even so, Jing Ling was still seriously injured.
After that, they sent another messenger to deliver the message, but it still ended in failure.
Until Guan Zheng was dispatched this time, and Guan Zheng was their last hope.
Although Jing Ling was injured, he still fought at the front and encouraged the soldiers.
Relying on Jing Ling's tenacious resistance, Tancheng's less than 20,000 soldiers persisted for more than ten days under the siege of 80,000 troops.
Up to this point in the battle, there are less than 8,000 defenders in the city, and almost all of them are injured. It is extremely tragic.
"How many days will there be enough food in the city?" Jing Ling asked.
The officer in charge of food in the city stood up and said, "Captain, please hold on for three days at most."
The officer's face looked ugly. The past three days had been extremely optimistic.
Even though there are wound-removing pills and small healing pills, they can only take one in a short period of time.
And many people died on the city wall before they even had time to take it.
"Okay!" Jing Ling's eyes became determined, and he endured the pain and inspected the city wall defenders.
After three days, it was too late to resend the courier.
"Oh no, the enemy is attacking the city!" Suddenly, a loud shout came from the top of the city.
Jing Ling's pupils dilated and he was suddenly surprised.
The time between enemy attacks is getting shorter and shorter, and it seems that they are also anxious.
Yes, the Dashun Kingdom also spent a lot of money to trap Jing Ling here.
If they can't kill Jing Ling, their efforts will be in vain.
"Everyone, General Guan Zheng has probably broken out and gone to relieve us."
"Next, follow me to defend Tancheng and wait for reinforcements."
Guan Zheng raised his spear, pointed it at the enemy, and shouted loudly.
Every word would touch his wound, causing severe pain.
But Jing Ling's expression remained unchanged and he endured the pain. Only his clenched teeth could tell how much pain Jing Ling was in.
