Chu Junbao's face was full of mockery. "If you kneel down now, your life is still yours. If you don't kneel, you're probably doomed."
Ning Ye didn't even bother to glance at the people who surrounded him. "Your Highness, do you think I would come here unprepared? If you make a move today, the best outcome will probably be that we both perish."
"Oh, really? Then I'll have to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve."
Ning Ye remained calm and took out a black tube from his clothes. "Your Highness, I think you don't know what this thing in my hand is, but I can tell you that once I use it, there will be no survivors within a hundred meters."
Chu Junbao's eyes immediately changed. "So this is what you used to ambush me and win. But it didn't seem this powerful before. How do I know if you're bluffing me?"
“Your Highness, my life is worthless, but only you know whether your life is worth it. If you want to try, I certainly don’t mind.”
This put Chu Junbao in a dilemma. He certainly couldn't risk his life. What a joke! If he really died here, he would have nothing left.
"Fine, I've never been so humiliated before. You've embarrassed me time and time again. Have you ever thought that when the city falls, it won't just be you who dies. Everyone in the city will be buried with you."
Ning Ye smiled slightly, "I'm really sorry, Your Highness, you don't need to worry about this matter. If Your Highness were to actually commit such a thing as massacring a city, it would probably be recorded in history in a very significant way."
After saying that, Ning Ye turned and left, still acting as if he was fearless and swaggering. This infuriated Chu Junbao, but he dared not do anything because the thing in Ning Ye's hand was too intimidating.
After Ning Ye left completely, Chu Junbao said angrily, "Someone is planning to give me the project immediately tomorrow morning. I must take this place within three days. I want this guy to watch the people he cares about die one by one."
The siege began again early the next morning. This time, an overwhelming number of people poured onto the city walls, and the attack came from three sides, leaving only one road leading to Shanyin Pass.
However, anyone with a brain knows that even if they really went back, how many people could escape in the wilderness was entirely up to fate. It would be better to hold the city and fight to the death, where there was still a chance.
Previously, Ningye's people had not participated in the defense of the city, so they had not put too much pressure on the other side. But now that Ningye's people have joined in, it feels like they are banging their heads against the city wall. Moreover, this feeling is extremely strong and is almost unbearable.
Before the soldiers who had climbed the city wall could even react, they were kicked down or cleaved in the chest with a sword, their blood splattering across the sky.
Very few people could actually scale the city walls, but with the two fierce generals Wang Wu and Liu Tianci present, they could kill as many as came.
Especially Liu Tianci, Ning Ye equipped him with an extended version of the Mo Dao (陌刀), which was so powerful that it could shatter both men and horses wherever it went.
Not to mention just hacking away at these soldiers who are basically not wearing much armor.
The knife in Liu Tianci's hand had become a deadly weapon. No matter how many enemies were on the city wall, as long as they were within his attack range, no one could withstand a single blow.
Liu Tianci can be considered the most suitable person to charge into battle. It would be a waste to not use such combat power in the main force. And now, as long as he stays here, there will be a constant stream of people coming to die. This is too comfortable for him.
Ning Ye, on the other hand, sat upright on the city gate, not participating in the battle at all. From the beginning, Ning Ye did not think he would definitely lose, after all, on this city wall, the enemy's numerical advantage could not be brought into play at all.
Ning Ye, high above, looked down at everything below. "Your Highness, this seems to be different from what you said."
Chu Junbao found it strange that Ning Ye had produced such strange things from somewhere, and that he could hear what Ning Ye was saying even from so far away.
“Keep pushing this forward. You have to produce something today. If you don’t, General Zhou, do you know what will happen?”
Zhou Tianping also had a bitter expression on his face. Although not many of these people were his own men, some of his personal guards had still been sent up. After so many days, more than half of his personal guards had been lost.
As the saying goes, everyone has a heart, and Zhou Tianping couldn't possibly be indifferent to the people under his command. Constantly draining them is really too unacceptable.
But since His Highness had already given the order, how could he dare to disobey?
Zhou Shaoping now only regrets why he doesn't have a fierce general under his command who can defeat ten thousand men. Why is such a fierce general only on the other side? This is really hard for him to accept.
The war drums had sounded again and again, but no matter how hard the soldiers fought, they still couldn't hold their ground on the city wall. This continued until noon, and with countless people killed in the battle, Zhou Tianping had no choice but to temporarily halt his offensive.
When the enemy retreated, Li Ping'an was completely exhausted and collapsed on the ground. Looking at Ning Ye's men, Li Ping'an's eyes were filled with envy.
They're all human, so how can these guys be so beastly? They do look a bit tired, but they're far from reaching their limit.
Or rather, even if such a battle lasted a whole day, Ningye's men would definitely be able to hold out, while Li Ping'an's more than a thousand garrison troops would probably be worn down and exhausted.
However, the differences between people, no matter how unwilling one may be to admit them, can only be acknowledged honestly at this moment.
When the battle ended, Wang Wu walked straight to Ning Ye's side and sat down on the ground, not caring how dirty the ground was.
"Young Master, these guys are really serious this time. If we keep fighting like this, the losses will be too great."
Ning Ye asked, "How many brothers died?"
"More than twenty people died in battle this morning, and of course, the corpses of those bastards are too numerous to count."
