Please ask me to be the emperor

"Boom, boom, boom!" Just as Zhang Shun and others were busy preparing to assist Dongjiang Town, Houjin soldiers had already launched a fierce attack on the soldiers stationed in Tieshan.

Iron Mountain is located in the Iron Mountain Peninsula of Korea in later generations. In addition to being connected to the land in the north, it is surrounded by the sea on three sides in the east, south and west. It faces Phi Island across the sea and is the springboard to Phi Island.

The successive commander-in-chief of Dongjiang naturally knew the importance of this place, so they once again set up a series of fortresses to guard against being captured by Hou Jin.

"Gou Ri, you actually used the Hongyi cannon this time!" Shen Zhixiang couldn't help but cursed when he saw the sharpness of Houjin's cannon.

"As long as I am here in Dongjiang Town, the Tatars are like a chokehold. Since they plan to completely eliminate us this time, isn't it natural to use the Hongyi cannon?" Unexpectedly, Shen Shikui just shook his head and laughed when he heard this.

"Then what should we do? Can we just be beaten passively?" Shen Zhixiang was young and energetic and couldn't help but ask.

"It's a blessing to be beaten passively!" Unexpectedly, Shen Shikui laughed when he heard this, "The Tatar army is strong and the Dongjiang army is weak. We can only wait for King Shun's reinforcements if we hold on for a while."

"Is this King Shun reliable?" At the critical moment, Shen Zhixiang couldn't help but feel uneasy, fearing that he might be betrayed.

In fact, even though he has only lived for twenty or thirty years now, he has already experienced being sold many times.

"Reliable or unreliable, we can only treat him as reliable!" Shen Shikui shook his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Do we still have a choice?"

"This is true!" Although Shen Zhixiang looked unwilling, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Stop talking, the Tatars are coming!" While the two were talking, Shen Shikui put down the telescope in his hand and quickly reminded him.

"Okay, uncle, I'll be right back!" Shen Zhixiang stopped complaining when he heard this, and just put his helmet on his head. Then he turned to the soldiers with iron armor behind them and ordered, "Follow me!"

To defend the city, naturally we cannot defend it to death.

Shen Zhixiang led these elites to launch a counterattack.

"Zhixiang, be careful!" Shen Shikui naturally knew that everything was dangerous, so he couldn't help but warn him quickly.

"Got it!" Shen Zhixiang paused when he heard this, and then left without looking back.

Needless to say, there is Phi Island behind, and their family members are on Phi Island. Naturally, everyone will fight to the death.

What if you die in battle?

That's what living people should worry about!

"Alas!" Seeing the soldiers in armor filing out, Shen Shikui let out a long sigh.

Before he became the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang, he tried his best to achieve his goal.

However, when he achieved his goal, there was no joy in his heart, but only sadness.

Dongjiang Town is over!

When he took over this mess and took a careful inventory of Dongjiang Town's territory, population, supplies, and surrounding threats, he could only make this accurate judgment.

On this small island, if it is a dragon, you have to coil up, and if it is a tiger, you have to nest.

The Dongjiang Town at this moment is no longer the Dongjiang Town it used to be.

There are no important people, no food, no external reinforcements, internal worries, and it is on the verge of collapse.

what to do? what to do?

Ren Shen Shikui thought hard and couldn't think of a way to deal with it.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, just take pity on Dongjiang Town!" Thinking of this, Shen Shikui felt despair in his heart, and he could only keep chanting in his heart, almost like praying to the Buddha.

Although he knew that what he was doing was of no use at all, but what if it worked?

"Kill, kill!" Just as he was in a state of mind, another loud sound of fighting brought him back to reality.

Shen Shikui took two steps forward, approached the female wall and looked outside, and saw Shen Zhixiang leading a group of Dongjiang warriors to kill the Houjin siege soldiers.

Both sides are heavily armored soldiers, so they behave clumsily and look extremely ridiculous.

However, in Shen Shikui's view, this was not ridiculous, but terrifying.

The Tatars' heavy-armored elite soldiers are famous all over the world and cannot be stopped. Shen Zhixiang and others can only wait for work and take advantage of the enemy's fatigue to wait for work.

This kind of heavy armor is very heavy, weighing no less than sixty pounds for the whole body.

Even if you are born with supernatural power, you will soon tire out, so Dongjiang Town is not without countermeasures.

However, during this period of waiting for work, the defensive pressure naturally doubled, and even the entire defense line was in danger of being penetrated.

However, Dongjiang Town built a group of fortresses in Tieshan and was not afraid of Hou Jin's fierce attack.

"Report, there are enemies in the south!" However, just when Shen Shikui was full of confidence, soldiers suddenly rushed back and forth to report.

"What? What's going on?" Shen Shikui was shocked when he heard this. He never expected that Hou Jinbing would suddenly appear behind him.

The Tieshan Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, with only one passage to the north. How could the Hou Jin soldiers bypass their back?

"It is said that the enemy's attire is exactly that of North Korea. It is very likely that North Korea also sent troops following the Tatars!" The soldier hesitated after hearing this and couldn't help but guess.

"North Korean soldiers? No wonder it's like this!" Shen Shikui suddenly realized what he said.

It turns out that Korea was originally a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, but with the corruption of the Liao Dynasty, Korea was successively attacked by the Later Jin Dynasty, and had no choice but to turn to the Later Jin Dynasty.

It's just that in the past, the North Korean country understood the principle of discord. Although the two sides had many conflicts, they still secretly gave Dongjiang Town a certain amount of support.

But Shen Shikui never expected that at this critical moment, North Korea would turn against the enemy and suddenly follow the Jin Kingdom to send troops. This was something he never expected.

The Korean soldiers of this era did not have much combat effectiveness except for being able to use muskets.

To be honest, Dongjiang Town has never taken these Korean soldiers seriously.

However, compared to Houjin, whose navy was weak, North Korea had a good navy.

Perhaps this fleet of water was nothing to the Kingdom of Heaven, but to the small Dongjiang Town, it was simply a disaster.

It's over, an idea emerged from Shen Shikui's heart.

He quickly ordered: "Let the whole army prepare to withdraw from Tieshan and return to Dongjiang Town!"

"Uncle, you must not!" Just as Shen Shikui issued the order, Shen Zhixiang, who had just returned, heard the words and did not bother to take off his armor, and quickly objected, "If the iron mountain is lost, the island will be in danger!"

"How can this town still use you to make noises when I don't know?" Unexpectedly, Shen Shikui heard this and couldn't help but yelled loudly.

"However, the Tatars are good at the land, and I, the Dongjiang River, are good at the water. If I use water to hit the land, I will attack the long with a short attack. How can I get it?"

Shen Shikui scolded him while winking desperately.

Then Shen Zhixiang realized that there must be a reason, so he had to say against his will: "My uncle taught me that it is Zhixiang Menglang!"

Just waiting for everyone to leave, Shen Shikui smiled bitterly this time and said: "North Korea has only the Tatars to obey, and Tieshan and Xuanzhou cannot defend it!"

When Shen Zhixiang heard this, he was stunned and immediately understood what was going on.

North Korea also has a navy. If Dongjiang Town is fighting a bitter battle with Houjin, if the two places are cut off and then attack from the south, all Dongjiang's elite troops will be lost here.

If we can return to Pi Island and Shenmi Island as soon as possible, we can still fight like a trapped beast.

"Can we still hold on for three months and wait for King Shun's reinforcements?" Shen Zhixiang understood this and couldn't help but become more worried.

Since his uncle Shen Shikui was the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang, he also knew some of the situation of the rebel army.

Although today's rebel army is powerful and has defeated Houjin in succession, it only has a Tianjin navy that has just been taken over, and it is impossible to reinforce it in time.

Therefore, the two sides had previously agreed on a three-month period. During these three months, Dongjiang Town tried its best to delay Houjin's attack, while the rebels reorganized their navy as quickly as possible to reinforce Dongjiang.

Who would have thought that North Korea, which had an ambiguous attitude, suddenly joined Hou Jin's side and participated in the siege of Dongjiang Town. This made the already precarious situation in Dongjiang even worse.

If Dongjiang Town itself cannot survive March, then even if the rebels want to help, they may be unable to do so.

"The top priority is to find out how many soldiers and naval forces North Korea has dispatched as soon as possible, and then send someone to report to His Highness King Shun as soon as possible!" Shen Shikui pondered for a moment and couldn't help but make a decision immediately.

Whether Dongjiang Town can rely on Pi Dao to survive for more than three months, Shen Shikui himself is not confident.

However, it is a matter of life and death for Dongjiang Town. If you can hold on, you must hold on, and if you cannot hold on, you must hold on. There is no way.

Thinking of this, Shen Shikui couldn't help but sneered: "If Marshal Mao hadn't rescued us, we would all be dead. What are we afraid of?"

"Let me tell the whole army: Pi Dao is here, and the whole family is here. Pi Dao is dead, and the whole family is dead. As long as we can get reinforcements from King Shun, everything will be fine!"
