"Your Highness, it is already dark. The great battle is about to begin. Is there anything you still don't understand?"
"Whether we can figure it out or not, what we need to do now is go all out. We must make sure the enemy knows that they want to wipe us out. That's just wishful thinking. They're daydreaming. We brought more than 200,000 people. We have spies in the city who told us that there are only 30,000 to 40,000 people inside."
“The advantage of 200,000 men over 30,000 or 40,000 is obvious on our side,” the Persian prince said, pointing to the vultures circling overhead. These vultures had been circling above them for quite some time. Vultures are scavengers, and they are creatures that can foresee death.
Normally, these maps should have already flown above Liusha City, because a great battle is about to break out. Within a few hours, Liusha City will surely be covered in blood.
These vultures could then fly down from the sky and feast on Baoqiang, but what he never expected was that these vultures would continue to soar above them.
“Tell me, why don’t these vultures fly up to the enemy’s city walls? Why aren’t they on the enemy’s city walls? Do these vultures have a premonition that we are about to face a large-scale death?”
The Persian prince's words stunned everyone present. They were momentarily at a loss for what to do. The people of the Persian Empire were devout believers, and they were unwilling to see their side suffer a major setback and loss.
“Your Highness the Prince of Persia, we are now in a situation where we have no choice but to act. We have already charged this far, are you asking us to retreat?”
“We’ve ridden camels across the vast desert and finally made it this far. If we turn back now, the hearts of our brothers will truly turn cold.”
These people were all eager to make a name for themselves. They had finally arrived at this place and were unwilling to go back under any circumstances. If they were to go back now, it would be like a blow to their heads.
"Your Highness, I have an idea, but I don't know if I should say it."
Just then, a great general named Virgil said with a smile.
"General, you should speak your mind. Don't keep it to yourself. Just tell me what's on your mind, and if I think it's reasonable, I will definitely take it into consideration."
"I reckon these beasts will take advantage of this opportunity tonight to launch a sneak attack on those vultures flying overhead. They've been soaring in the air the whole time; it must be about this."
Upon hearing the general's words, the others nodded in agreement. At this moment, they couldn't think of any other way but to numb themselves.
"These vultures must have foreseen the large-scale death that would occur here, which is why they've been circling above us. But that death isn't ours; it's the death of those ignorant fools in the city."
"Your Highness, we must not fail at the last moment. We must make them understand that if they want to continue to act arrogantly here, it's like they're asking for death. We have 1,000, 10,000 ways to break through the city and make them turn against us on the verge of death."
Suddenly, these guys made a surprising discovery.
The vultures that had been circling overhead had flown away by this time.
“Look, this is a good thing for us. We never expected that the vultures would fly into the city.”
"These people will definitely be able to break into the city this time. Not only that, those bastards in the city will suffer heavy losses, something we never expected before, and something we've never encountered before."
Everyone present gained confidence at that moment.
"If it weren't for this soil, they would have already flown into the city and were circling above it. In that case, we are sure to win this time. We must make them realize that if they want to attack our city, they are simply courting death."
"Warriors of the Persian Empire, we will make them pay for their crimes in blood. We will make them understand that if they oppose us, we have 1,000 or 10,000 ways to kill them. What right do these bastards have to be so arrogant here? What right do these bastards have to swagger around here?"
The people of the Persian Empire suddenly became as if they had been injected with adrenaline, and they picked up weapons one by one.
"Put out all the torches, and follow me. I know how to get there."
The Persian prince rode at the head of the procession on a camel, repeatedly stomping his legs against the camel's back, which greatly increased the camel's speed.
These people from the Persian Empire were all eager to get things done. At this moment, the city of Shajing was incredibly tempting to them. If they stormed into the city, they could have anything they wanted and do whatever they pleased.
"We'll storm into the city, and all the women there will be ours. With our 200,000 men, this time we'll take everything from the city!"
“We need to make them understand that if they want to oppose us, they are delusional and daydreaming. We have 1,000 or 10,000 ways to kill them.”
At this moment, on the city wall, Han Xin saw that the enemy's torches had been extinguished. Although the campfire was still burning, there were no longer any people around it.
The sky was full of stars. Although he couldn't hear or see where the other party had gone, Han Xin knew they had taken action.
“Brothers, these beasts have already made their move. This time, we must make them understand that they have walked right into our trap and are courting death. We must kill them all cleanly.”
Li Cunxiao had been waiting there for a while, and this guy couldn't hold back any longer.
"General Han, can I start sweating now? I'm going to make them understand what kind of bastards they really are."
With his weapon in hand, Li Cunxiao was about to rush to the city wall, mount his warhorse, and charge out of the city.
"What are you panicking for? Who told you to go out like this? You must make them understand that we are nothing but a fart in front of them. I said you should set off in the middle of the night or even at dawn. But you must understand that your goal is to block their retreat from the mountain pass. If even one of them gets away, I will kill you. Do you understand?"
