“Go ahead…”
On the battlefield, Zhao Yiming took the lead and led the soldiers behind him to charge straight into the enemy camp. The 20,000 soldiers were like a sharp sword piercing the enemy's heart.
The enemy troops who were originally attacking the city were suddenly frightened by this sudden change.
Zhao Yiming seized the opportunity and led his soldiers to kill quickly. By the time the enemy generals reacted, they had already reached the city gate, cleared out the soldiers who were attacking the city, pushed down the ladders and heavy siege pestles on the city gate, and gave the already devastated city gate a respite.
"Attack the city, attack the city, keep attacking the city for this general..." The enemy general Jabal watched helplessly as the city gate that was about to be breached was interrupted by someone, and there were only 20,000 reinforcements to resist their siege. He was so angry that he shouted at the soldiers to charge forward.
Seeing this, the messenger immediately beat the war drum hard to encourage the soldiers to charge forward.
Zhao Yiming was not afraid either, and continued to ride his horse and run in the front. The soldiers behind him were more motivated to see their commander so brave.
Seeing this, Zhou Haoqun, who was still hanging on to his last breath on the city wall, immediately ordered his deputy general to open the city gate and bring troops to assist.
The two sides gathered together and a war was about to break out. Zhao Yiming still held a crossbow in his left hand and a long sword in his right hand. Wherever he went was like the autumn harvest in the wheat fields. He knocked down a lot of people with one move.
"Hey, this, this, where did this killer come from..." Jabbar said, pointing in the direction of Zhao Yiming with trembling hands.
"General, the situation is not optimistic if this continues! We have to find a solution quickly! Otherwise, morale will be lost." The military advisor on the side said anxiously.
Jabar subconsciously tapped the scabbard at his side, his emotions slowly calming down. He narrowed his eyes and looked in Zhao Yiming's direction. "Including the reinforcements that have arrived this time, the Xijing Pass has a maximum of 70,000 soldiers and horses. We have a full 10,000 more than them. They definitely can't defeat us in a head-on fight. Their current disadvantage is only because of that new general. As long as we capture him, Zhou Haoquan will be no longer useful."
The military advisor's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered the messenger to beat the drum to pass on the order, focusing on besieging Zhao Yiming.
As the war drums sounded, Zhao Yiming's pressure increased dramatically. Seeing this, Jingyu and others immediately protected him.
But after several rounds, the number of enemy troops around them increased. Even though they were secret guards with high martial arts skills, it became increasingly difficult. Except for Zhao Yiming who was wearing protective clothing, the rest of them were more or less injured.
Jabar had no idea Zhao Yiming had this treasure. He only saw a soldier slashing at him with a knife, so he thought he was already injured. He was immediately excited, "It seems that Xijing Pass is in our pocket today, hahahaha."
"Quick, increase the intensity of the attack on this general."
As he finished speaking, the war drums sounded again. Zhao Yiming, who was at the center of the siege, suddenly narrowed his eyes and immediately had an idea in his mind.
"Cover me..." he shouted, and Jingyu and others immediately protected him.
He quickly loaded the crossbow with arrows, and with the help of Jingyu's legs and shoulders, he leaped into the air and shot two arrows at the banging war drum. The two arrows hit the same spot, and the sturdy war drum was instantly scrapped.
Jabbar was looking at his war drum in disbelief, but before he could lose his temper, his sensitive ears heard the sound of an arrow breaking through the wind.
He almost subconsciously dodged to the side, but unfortunately this time there were three arrows fired in succession. He dodged the first two arrows but could not dodge the third one.
With a "puff" sound, the short arrow firmly penetrated his left arm.
"General, General, how are you?" The military advisor reacted and rushed to him with concern.
Jabal was not only a general, but also the second prince of their Western Liao Kingdom. If something happened to him, all of them would have to be buried with him.
"Military doctor, where is the military doctor? Call the military doctor quickly." The military advisor was very panicked when he saw the arrow in his arm, fearing that he would make a mistake.
The military doctor came quickly and treated the wound on Jabbar's arm. He had hurt him when he was pulling out the arrow and was almost chopped by him.
His arm was bandaged and hung around his neck. He looked at Zhao Yiming with anger in his eyes. "He is the first person who dared to hurt this general. Kill him. Kill him for me."
In order to avenge his personal grudge, the willful Jabbar ignored the battle in front of him and even sent his own soldiers to encircle Zhao Yiming.
The war drums had been destroyed and the soldiers on the field were already in some confusion. Now Jabeur was even more furious with Zhao Yiming. The military advisor shouted that something bad was going to happen and hurried to dissuade him.
Jabbar, enraged, gave him a backhanded stern look, then asked, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
His mother was the emperor's favorite concubine. She had been tyrannical in the palace of Western Liao since she was a child and was vindictive. Now that she had suffered such a great loss at the hands of Zhao Yiming, her rationality had long been thrown out of her control.
Seeing the military advisor covering his face and lowering his head, not daring to speak, Jabbar curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction and ordered the soldiers to attack Zhao Yiming with all their strength.
Seeing that most of the enemy troops were coming towards him, making it increasingly difficult for the people around him, Zhao Yiming made up his mind, jumped on his horse and ran out of the battlefield.
Seeing this, Jabbar hurriedly ordered people to chase him, "We must not let him get away."
As early as when he knew that he might come to Western Liao, Zhao Yiming had studied the terrain here thoroughly. Now that he thought about it, he had a plan in his mind and led a large group of enemy troops to a valley without looking back.
Seeing Jingyu and the others were about to catch up, he immediately took out a special whistle to send a message to them.
After receiving the signal, the few people stopped immediately and concentrated on killing the enemy troops around them.
There were at least a thousand enemy troops led away by Zhao Yiming. Seeing this, Jabbar didn't think much about it. He just felt that Zhao Yiming was doomed, and his mind finally returned to the battlefield.
The military advisor looked at the direction the soldiers left. Although he always felt that it would not be that simple, he kept silent when he saw Jabbar turn his attention back to the battlefield.
"Hahaha, charge towards this general! Their main general has run away, we will definitely win this battle." Jabbar shouted excitedly at the battlefield.
The war drum broke, and the messenger could only blow the horn hard to boost morale, his throat almost dry and smoking.
But just when the enemy thought they were sure to win, there was a deafening "bang" suddenly heard in the distance, and even the earth shook.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw thick smoke rising from there.
The military advisor was shocked, "General, that's our granary!"
At the same time, Jingyu and others who stayed behind suddenly made an effort and led the soldiers behind them to fight bravely. The enemy soldiers who were attracted by the loud noise just now all received their lunch boxes before they could react.
Seeing that his soldiers were killed or wounded in just a few moments, and that there was no way to find food or supplies, Jabar had no choice but to order the troops to retreat.
