In the distant horizon, the dawn has not yet broken and the night is still as dark as ink, as if a thick black curtain is covering the earth.
In this darkness, there is a place that stands out particularly - that is the Liao and Jin camp.
From afar, you can see countless dense flames flickering in the camp, just like the bright stars in the night sky falling to the earth.
These flames were scattered throughout the camp. Some were more concentrated, forming bright flames; others were scattered, like lonely fireflies dancing in the dark.
If you look closely, you can find that these flames are actually signs that the soldiers, after a night of rest, are starting to prepare breakfast.
As time went on, the flames became more numerous and brighter, and the originally silent camp gradually became noisy.
The clashing of pots and pans, the shouts of soldiers, and the crackling of burning wood intertwined together, breaking the tranquility of the night and adding a touch of fresh breath of life to the originally cold and solemn military camp.
The endless wars made the soldiers of Liao and Jin look haggard and exhausted.
They walked slowly to the campfire, holding their bowls, exhausted.
At this moment, everyone's face revealed an almost numb expression, as if they were deeply tired and helpless about this endless war.
Some of these soldiers stared blankly at the jumping flames, as if their thoughts had already drifted far away.
Some mechanically shoveled food into their mouths, oblivious to their surroundings. In the firelight, their faces, eroded by wind and sand, appeared exceptionally rough, the marks of time prematurely etched upon their youthful features.
Although the bonfires brought some warmth to the cold night, they could not dispel the gloom in their hearts. The long marches and battles had robbed them of their former vitality and passion, leaving them only like the walking corpses, struggling to survive in this cruel war.
When the massacre turned into a siege, when they watched their companions fall one by one, when they realized that they were not invincible, when they realized that they might not be able to take down the capital of Da Qi, the arrogance in their hearts completely dissipated.
Without the pleasure brought by killing and plundering, the long and high-intensity fighting also made these people physically and mentally exhausted.
Some people ate a few mouthfuls of food and regained their spirits, and began to miss their hometown and their relatives. They had captured Bazhou City this time and made a lot of money. Some people wanted to go home and share the joy of family life with their families.
Some of them clamored that they must capture the capital of Da Qi, and then carry out a massacre and plunder, making the people of Da Qi tremble under their butcher knives. They wanted to kill all the men of Da Qi and drag out all the women to be used as animals!
There was a bloodthirsty gleam in these people's eyes. It was obvious that after a night of rest and a few mouthfuls of hot food, they felt that they were able to recover and the animal nature in their bodies was awakened again.
"The girls of Da Qi are so good, with delicate skin and tender flesh. The girls of Liao and Jin can't compare to them."
"Yeah, yeah, last time I played one, I punched it, and it made me cry for a long time!"
"Once we get to town, I'm going to find a baby to roast!"
"Does anyone want to compete with me to see who kills more people?"
Amidst the noise, a hint of dawn appeared in the sky. Everyone knew that dawn was approaching and the time for the general attack was approaching.
Whether they missed home or wanted to continue killing, the vast majority of Liao and Jin soldiers turned their eyes to the capital of Da Qi.
"Look! What is that!"
Someone exclaimed and pointed in the direction of the top of Da Qi City with a look of horror.
Soon more people saw that round balls were rising from behind the city wall, floating closer and closer to them!
There were many smiling faces on top of the ball, and each of them looked very frivolous.
For some reason, the moment they saw this smiling face, the Liao and Jin people unconsciously clenched their fists. They felt insulted for no reason!
The unusual situation on the city wall of Da Qi soon alarmed the generals of Liao and Jin, and soon everyone surrounded Yelu Song and came out.
Looking at the large balls in the sky, Yelu Song said solemnly, "Could this be the flying object that the Imperial Master mentioned? What is the use of this thing?"
"No matter what, we can't let this thing get close to the camp. Archers, get ready!"
At Yelu Song's command, countless bows and arrows were aimed at the sky.
As the hot air balloon got closer, Yelu Song gave the order: "Shoot!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, countless arrows soared into the air and shot towards the direction of the hot air balloon.
Unfortunately, these arrows failed to cause any damage to the hot air balloons. At this moment, the coffin lid of the great god Newton applied a powerful defensive BUFF to these hot air balloons.
After a round of unsuccessful volleys, Yelu Song frowned and ordered again: "Send the Archer over!"
The Archers were the treasures of the Liao and Jin armies. They possessed the ability to kill with long-range sniping. Generally, the Liao and Jin armies were reluctant to let these people participate in the war.
But now, seeing these flying things getting closer and closer to them, Yelu Song felt more and more anxious, and he could no longer care about anything else.
However, before the archer could get into position, the hot air balloon had already floated over the group of people.
Then one lumps of objects after another were thrown out from the baskets of balloons.
