Chapter 226 Fight to the Death
The war finally broke out before the Chinese New Year.
As the deafening sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, the ground seemed to tremble slightly. General Pei looked ahead and saw a group of people and horses gradually appearing at the end of the road. The bright flags of the North Wing fluttered in the cold wind.
The swords of the Northern Wing soldiers pierced the sky, emitting a cold light in the air. The horses' hooves on the ground made heavy rumbling sounds again and again, and the dust they raised rolled and surged, carrying the murderous aura of the Northern Wing soldiers, which made people feel terrified.
There was a cold look in General Pei's eyes. This battle must have been something the Northern Wing had been preparing for for a long time.
"Archers, prepare, release your arrows..."
Following General Pei's order.
With a "click" sound, the Northwest Army drew their bows and arrows, and with a release, thousands of arrows rushed towards the Northern Army.
Hearing several consecutive "thump thump" sounds suddenly coming from the sky, the Northern Wing Army watched as thousands of feather arrows were shot from the city walls of the Northwest Army.
Almost immediately.
The Northern King, the highest commander of the Northern Wing Army, immediately gave the order.
"Move up to the anti-arrow formation..."
Soon a group of people holding shields stood in front of the team. Most of the arrows from the Northwest Army hit the shields, and of course they also hit some soldiers on the northern wing, and dozens of them fell down.
The Northern King raised his sword and gave the order.
"Soldiers, listen up! The shield team will form an arrow formation, and the siege team will follow."
Soon, the shield team on the north wing formed a battle formation and protected the siege team.
General Wei looked at the Northern Wing Army gradually approaching under the arrows of the Northwest Army and gave orders with a serious face.
"Bow and arrow."
Soon the bow and arrow were handed over, and General Wei personally drew the bow and shot the arrow at the Northern King, but the arrow was quickly knocked down by the Northern King's raised sword.
Arrows rained down from the sky, drums roared, iron hooves trampled, and dust flew.
The northern wing army pushed the battering ram and charged forward as quickly as a roc spreading its wings.
Seeing this, General Pei gave orders calmly.
"Slingers, prepare to throw stones."
As the northern wing army approached the city gate, countless huge rocks fell from the city walls, and soon some people were crushed to death, their flesh and blood mangled.
But the warriors from the North Wing immediately took over from behind him. Since they had arrived, they were not prepared to go back alive.
A bloody and heavy atmosphere filled the entire battlefield.
As the large logs on the battering ram slammed hard against the city gate, other soldiers on the north wing also took siege ladders and placed them on the city wall and began to climb up.
General Pei, holding his sword, struck at the soldiers from the northern wing who were climbing up, piercing their chests. Warm blood splashed on General Pei's hands. He killed enemy after enemy, and even his face was splashed with blood. It can be seen that the battle was fierce. Countless people fell, and countless more rushed up...
Li Xiao was wearing armor. He kicked an enemy away and at the same time stabbed another enemy in the abdomen with a sword.
Lu Zhan and Fang Zhiyi were also fighting with the enemy. They were all blood-thirsty. Firstly, since they had entered the barracks, they naturally had to protect Tianyuan and the people. Secondly, they must strive to make military achievements in this battle and not let down Master Jun's training.
Jun family.
Jun Moye and Su Hanchu were playing in the yard with Chu Chen in their arms.
Tao Zhiwen came quickly.
"Sir, the northern wing army has arrived and is now attacking the city gate."
Jun Moye hurriedly handed the child in his hand to Su Hanchu.
"Tell our men to keep an eye on the situation. Report any developments immediately and prepare the horses."
Su Hanchu took the child with worry in his eyes.
"Jun Moye..."
Jun Moye naturally understood her concerns and reached out to hug her and the child.
"Chu Chu, don't worry. I won't be going to the battlefield for the time being. The people we train have to wait for the opportunity before they can go to the battlefield, and I also need to wait for the opportunity. I need to make some arrangements now. You can stay at home with the children. Don't worry, even if I go to the battlefield, I will definitely be able to protect myself because I have you and the children."
Su Hanchu knew that she couldn't stop him. The enemy had already reached her doorstep. Without a country, how could she have a home?
"Aye, you go ahead and deploy the troops. I'll prepare. When you go to the battlefield, I'll be with you. I know my martial arts skills, and I'm not the kind of vase that needs to hide behind a man. I'd rather fight alongside you than hide under your wings."
Jun Moye saw the appraisal in her eyes and finally nodded.
"Okay, then I'll go to Guanping Village to discuss this with my father-in-law and my second brother."
Then he looked at the child in Su Hanchu's arms before turning around and leaving quickly. When he reached the gate of the mansion, he rode the fast horse prepared by Tao Zhiwen and galloped towards Guanping Village.
Late at night, soldiers from both sides, wearing thick armor and holding spears and sharp swords, were still fighting hard. The city walls were filled with shouts of killing, mixed with crying and howling, and the entire wilderness was filled with the harsh sound of swords clashing.
The air of the entire battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the sounds of killing were everywhere, and blood was flowing like a river.
Although the soldiers in the northwest fought hard to resist the enemy and tried their best to protect the lights of thousands of homes behind them.
However, the Northern Wing Army had too many people, and it seemed that they would never be killed. As the fighting went on until late at night, the Northwestern Army was already exhausted and had fallen behind.
As the Northern Wing Army had already crashed into the city gate, countless Northern Wing soldiers rushed into the city with shouts of killing.
“Kill…”
“Go ahead…”
"Take over the northwest, and we'll have both food and women."
Li Xiao has already moved to General Pei's side.
"General, please retreat quickly. There are too many soldiers on the north wing..."
General Pei went through many bloody battles to reach the position of general. Now, no matter his identity or blood, he will not allow himself to retreat.
"Brothers, fight to the death, follow me and fight to the death."
Seeing this, Li Xiao felt admiration for General Pei and gritted his teeth.
"Then General, be careful."
Then he rushed towards the enemy and started fighting hard again.
General Wei and General Song also fought fiercely, their eyes bloodshot. After years of defending the northwest, the enemy had actually breached the city walls. The northwest army could not be defeated. If they were defeated, what would happen to the people behind them? What would happen to Tianyuan's defense?
