The Duke truly did not disappoint the citizens of the Capital City.
The next day, the Jin Army organized forces at two city gates, setting up cloud ladders to attack the city.
Jiang Zhongxing personally stood on the city wall to command, using crossbows, rolling stones, bed crossbows, and catapults to repel wave after wave of Jin Army attacks.
At night, Jiang Zhongxing bravely dispatched a small squad to raid the camp, burning several dozen Jin Army cloud ladders and killing over a hundred men.
These consecutive victories boosted the morale of the Great Chu army, even the Capital City's citizens were filled with confidence.
The citizens brought cooking oil from their homes to the city walls, collected stone blocks everywhere, and sharpened tree branches to supply the defending soldiers.
In the midst of the city defense battle, unknowingly, the Capital City had been defended for a month.
