Chapter 160: Battle between Ze State and Snow Region
Even Manhuang himself didn't know how many times he had been praised by his master outside.
Junlin has a special preference for Manhuang. It seems that his supreme loyalty has touched her, and she never hesitates to express her love for him.
Wen Suili certainly knew this. Among the people around Jun Lin outside Guigu, only Manhuang had been remembered by him for a long time.
The high priest with long silver hair sighed: "Emperor Jing likes you very much."
Manhuang didn't quite understand what kind of emotion was mixed in his tone. The big guy just lowered his head embarrassedly, and his ears felt hot.
"I know."
Manhuang replied with deep affection.
Everyone around Jun Lin is very handsome, except Song Simiao, Ming He and others, even Yan Yu, who is also a military general like him.
They have porcelain-white skin and delicate features, but he himself has an ordinary face and an unpleasant tall stature. He is usually dull and can't say anything nice. Manhuang feels that he is much worse than those people.
Under his huge body, he actually has a surprisingly delicate and sensitive heart. He once wondered if he would be disliked by others, but all his fears were silently soothed by Jun Lin.
As more and more people surrounded Jun Lin, her treatment of him never changed, and Manhuang could clearly feel that the unique place was reserved for him.
He did not understand the love between men and women, nor did he want to be promoted or given more titles. He just wanted to stay in his position and guard his piece of heaven to repay his master's kindness.
The few of them got along very well, discussing the military situation and countermeasures. Soon it got dark and the Ze army launched a night attack.
There is no moon tonight, but the night sky is lit up red by torches.
The night seemed to make people's emotions more unstable. The huge and burly Zeguo army tightened the reins and looked anxious while sitting high on their horses.
When did Xueyu request so many reinforcements?
The tall and strong general of Ze State narrowed his eyes and looked at Dajing's iron cavalry, and the coldness in his eyes was about to shatter into ice.
Why is it Jingguo again?
Why does Emperor Jing always want to get involved in everything?
"Attack with catapults, protect the ladders, and break through the city with battering rams!"
The brave general waved his sword and shouted orders to the sky. In the seductive night, the war began.
"Go!"
The siege was fully launched.
There are many forms of warfare, including field battles, naval battles, sea battles, and sieges, etc., and siege warfare is the most complex and difficult of them all.
If you want to attack a city, you must first besiege it. In addition to simply stationing a large number of soldiers at the four corners of the city, the next thing to do is to dig trenches, place chevaux de frise and spikes, etc. But unfortunately, Xueyu knew the intention of the Ze army and took the lead in breaking the siege.
There is also a snowy archer camp on the mountain not far away, always keeping an eye on the enemy situation below.
However, due to the terrain and growth habits of the Ze Kingdom, the people are wild and unruly, brave and good at fighting, and their riding skills far exceed those of the other four countries. The only one who can compare with them is probably the well-trained Dajing Iron Cavalry.
The Iron Cavalry of Dajing were elite troops, the direct troops under Emperor Jing, with a total number of only 100,000. Among the 200,000 troops supporting the Snow Region, 50,000 were Iron Cavalry.
On the city wall, the Snow Region general calmed down and shouted, "Don't panic, archers, get ready! The whole army must concentrate and not be disturbed by the enemy. Running around and wasting energy, carefully identify the direction of the enemy's attack!"
The Snowland soldiers were not very strong, and soon their silver hair was dyed red by the warm liquid. They could not tell whether it was their companions' blood or the enemy's blood.
Wen Suili looked down at the chaotic, brutal and terrifying killings, with a stern and extremely repressive indifference in his soft eyes.
If the five countries cannot unite, wars will continue to be launched by rulers. The world needs a master, a master who can suppress all the evil ambitions.
"Report - It's bad, High Priest, the city gate is about to be breached!!!"
The soldier's eyes were red with anxiety. Wen Suili stood with his hands behind his back and gently closed his sad eyes.
"Thank you very much, Jingjun, for this time."
Throwing stones to cause chaos and using shields for protection, the battering rams tried again and again and finally broke through the city gate. The Ze army was about to rush in in a big way, but they did not expect that the Dajing Iron Cavalry had been waiting for a long time.
The leader was a huge man wielding a heavy sword. He was like a giant monster, and the ground seemed to tremble when he stepped on it. Manhuang tightly grasped the hilt of the sword. He was so excited that he was shaking all over. The man shouted loudly: "Kill——"
Manhuang led the iron cavalry to charge first, wielding the black iron heavy sword as mighty as his master.
The Iron Cavalry led the way, and the other troops behind them, armed with various weapons, counterattacked in an orderly manner.
The situation was tense, but the Ze army had no chance of capturing the city.
But the Ze army had strict discipline and their attacks became more and more fierce. The two armies were in a stalemate. The Snow Region general led his troops to reduce the military strength on both wings. Wen Suili looked into the distance from the top of the high city wall, his elegant figure standing like a green pine, straight and noble.
The entire world seemed to be reflected in those icy blue pupils.
"High Priest, the Ze army is more courageous than we expected. Can we resist it this time...?"
The silver-haired guard was so anxious that he wanted to fly down and join the battle.
Wen Suili stared at the battle situation for a long time, his voice filled with indescribable heaviness and sorrow: "The Ze Army's original intention this time was to take over the Snow Region in one fell swoop. If Emperor Jing had not borrowed troops, the Snow Region would no longer exist now."
Snowland is a small country that has been hidden from the world for a long time. Its strength does not lie in its military. Facing the most ferocious Ze army, without support from other countries, it can only be destroyed.
The guard's eyes instantly turned red: "Even if it really comes to that, we will sacrifice ourselves. For the sake of our country, we are willing to perish together with the enemy."
Sacrifice, a unique secret technique of the Snow Region.
Wen Suili's brows were colder: "What's the difference between this and Southern Xinjiang? It hasn't come to that yet, there's no need for you to do this. Yunyu has already led his troops to attack the enemy's military base from the back door, we will not lose this battle."
A man in a white, blue-collared gown fluttered in the air as he walked down the city wall in the night with a look of sorrow on his face, like a god from heaven. He flew down and finally drew out his sharp sword.
"High Priest, it's dangerous down there. You must not get involved with such filthy things!"
The high priest is equivalent to the second master of the Snow Region, and he must not be harmed in any way. The guards were so anxious that they immediately joined the battle.
Among the three Guiguzi, Wen Suili is the purest.
Jun Lin's heavy sword was soaked in blood, Gongqing's Buddhist beads were wet with blood, and now, even Wen Suili, who was as pure and holy as the snow and moonlight, was stained with dirt.
His silver hair was stained red and stuck together by the wet blood, and his white cheeks were dotted with blood.
In this world, gods will break their rules and noble high priests will raise their stilettos, all to defend the pure land behind them, which is their home.
