"No! Junye is still on the mountain, we can't attack."
Fang Qingshan refused without even thinking, and the prince's face turned cold in an instant.
"No? Oh, Master Fang, have you forgotten your identity?"
The prince's voice was neither hurried nor slow, and carried an undoubted sense of oppression. Hearing this, the corners of General Gao's mouth curled up wildly, forming a sharp contrast with Fang Qingshan's sullen face.
The prince was only twenty years old this year, but he ordered an elder like him around in front of so many people, which made Fang Qingshan lose all his face and dignity.
When the King of Qi was driven to his fiefdom by the Emperor's decree, Fang Qingshan was the first to surrender. Later, he used the King of Qi's influence to gain unparalleled influence in the Qingyun City area.
Fang Qingshan believed that having been with the King of Qi for many years, he was in a position to have a say in matters of seniority and status. He straightened his back, threw his wide sleeves behind him, and said with airs, "The Crown Prince is young, so naturally he is a bit radical. I have been with the King of Qi for many years, so naturally I will make plans for him."
"Master Fang, I think you're worrying too much. You're just a loyal dog raised by my father. You're supposed to fight wherever your master tells you to. As for the plan, it's my father and I who will make it. What does it have to do with you?"
"you!"
Fang Qingshan was so angry that he was shaking. He wanted to pull him over to argue, but the prince would not tolerate him. He directly ordered the guards who were protecting him to restrain Fang Qingshan and shouted to the soldiers who were ready to attack, "Attack the mountain!"
“Woo—”
The horn sounded and the soldiers surrounded the Black Wind Village.
At first, the people in Black Wind Village did not realize the seriousness of the problem. After all, they had been struggling every now and then these days, so Tiger Eye hurriedly hung Fang Junyi up.
However, this time, "Swing" did not play its due role.
Realizing that they were serious, the brothers on lookout hurried to report to Yuan's military advisor.
"Oh no, they're attacking!"
"What?"
After a brief moment of surprise, the Yuan army advisor immediately deployed, "Cut off the cable bridge and start the defense."
"yes!"
The Tianyuan military advisors who were trapped on the mountain had been setting traps and checkpoints everywhere in the Black Wind Village. Each brother performed his duties and quickly found his position.
What followed was a long tug of war.
Black Wind Village has always been easy to defend and difficult to attack. The natural dangers are their umbrella of protection. Even though General Gao has a large number of men, he cannot do anything to them for the time being.
However, the difference in numbers between the two sides was so huge that General Gao simply resorted to a rotation battle.
The attacks came one after another, and as time passed, the brothers of Black Wind Village gradually became exhausted.
The monkey in charge of guarding the east was accidentally injured, and in the blink of an eye, seventy or eighty soldiers attacked.
At the critical moment, Yuan's military advisor arrived with his men and blocked the gap again, but it still could not change the situation of their advancing step by step.
The attacks continued throughout the day and into the night.
There is no lighting in the mountains, it is pitch black and danger may be lurking everywhere.
The brothers used their familiarity with Black Wind Village to organize several sneak attacks. Captain Gao realized the danger and temporarily recruited soldiers to retreat for a while, waiting for dawn to defeat the stronghold in one fell swoop.
Dark clouds cover the moon, but no one can sleep.
The fighting stopped for a while, but the brothers guarding the Black Wind Village did not dare to relax.
They all suffered injuries of varying degrees, and had not eaten or drunk anything for the whole day, relying solely on their strength to hold on.
Su Man and Cui Niang ran around to deliver supplies to the brothers, while Mo Niang followed an old lady in the village who had some medical skills to bandage the wounded.
After working until late at night, the brothers finally had a meal.
Mo Niang, who was carrying herbs, bumped into Su Man, who was holding a bucket, and said, "Madam."
Su Man nodded, "Are the herbs enough?"
"It's not enough. The brothers with minor injuries gave their medicine to the seriously injured ones, and we can barely get by."
"Yeah, it's hard work."
The evening breeze rustled the leaves, and it felt as if the day's bloodbath had vanished into thin air. If it weren't for the lingering scent of blood in the air, it would have seemed as if nothing had happened.
Mo Niang looked up and said sadly, "It would be better if the day never came."
They all knew that as soon as the sun rose, the King of Qi's troops would launch a frenzied attack. After a day of fighting, the Black Wind Village was in ruins, and it would be a miracle if it could hold out for another half a day.
"Mo Niang."
The moment the voice sounded, Mo Niang immediately turned around. It was Yuan Military Advisor.
Mo Niang walked over quickly, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to take a rest?"
Military Advisor Yuan's eyes were full of affection. "I just wanted to see you more."
“…”
Su Man, who was tactful, quietly stepped aside and left them some space.
Not long after walking, a small furry cat moved stealthily towards them.
Su Man saw it at a glance, waited for it to move to his feet, grabbed it by the scruff of the neck and lifted it up.
"Huh? Whose disobedient little kitten is this? Didn't I tell you it was dangerous outside and asked you to stay inside?"
Mimi hung her head and pretended to be dead.
Su Man rubbed Mimi's belly and said with a smile, "What a naughty little cat."
A man and a cat enjoyed the calm before the storm, and the sky gradually brightened.
At the foot of the mountain, the prince pointed his sword at the Black Wind Stronghold and said, "Attack the mountain! For every head you take, you will get a silver ingot. If you dare to retreat, you will be killed without mercy!"
-
The two sides fought, the war horses neighed, and the sky was faintly red.
The knife sank into his abdomen and the sharp arrow pierced his vest.
This was a battle without any suspense, but no one from the top to the bottom of the Black Wind Village retreated.
If a knife is stuck in your body, pull it out; if an arrow is in the way, break it.
More and more brothers are injured and the gap is getting bigger and bigger.
On the top of the mountain, Su Man frowned as he looked at the soldiers rushing up from all directions. Could this be the end?
