There were bloody corpses everywhere, as well as some injured soldiers.
"Damn it!" Qin Yu held a long knife in his hand, furious, and rushed forward to kill!
Although Lingzhou City had maintained high-intensity fighting before, those rebels rushed into the sword formation, and only a few were able to get close.
Those few soldiers can be easily strangled with ordinary spirit-breaking crossbow arrows.
However, these blood demons are completely different.
Not only are they difficult to kill, they have no vital points, but the most critical point is that they regard death as if they were dead, and they exploded as soon as they rushed to the top of the city.
Just the first round of charge left all the defenders on the city wall dead and wounded.
Looking at the blood demons in the back, they have been completely countless. Even if there is a sword formation strangling them outside, I am afraid they will not be able to sustain it for too long.
In the sky, several examiners sighed when they saw this scene.
"After all, I still can't hold on any longer."
The examiners' eyes were dim, and they looked at Lu Yu with a hint of pity.
In any case, Lu Yu's ability to hold on until now is considered very good.
From the time Lu Yu just woke up from Huang Liang's dream to now, he has been planning almost every step, and forcefully defended Lingzhou, which should have been broken.
If it were them, many people would ask themselves that they would not be able to persist to this point now.
Lingzhou is just an ordinary state capital.
The rebels on the opposite side are many times stronger than them. This is a gap in comparison based on hard power, and it is almost difficult to make up for it.
A general said: "If Lu Yu fails this time, our military is willing to recruit him into our ranks. Even if he does not have Jinshi status, he can still hold an official position by virtue of his military merit."
This was another way of the Yu Dynasty, which was to obtain official positions by relying on military merit.
For example, the title of General Xuanwu that Lu Yu received before was only a false title and could not receive the blessing of heavenly luck.
But if Lu Yu really joins the army, he can obtain a practical official rank by virtue of his military merit.
For example, the guard general of Lingzhou Mansion also has a real job and can receive the same blessings as the state pastor in terms of luck.
This is also a path, but compared to a real Jinshi background, it is often more bumpy.
Unless you are an extremely powerful person, you may only be able to guard one place even if you die, and will not be promoted to higher places.
Just like Lu Yu, who is at the top of the two lists, if he were to regain a separate military position, it would not be too high. At most, he would be the general guarding a certain continent.
For Lu Yu, this was definitely overkill.
Only then did some examiners look regretful.
"There is no way, the rules are the rules. If Lu Yu dies or loses his status as state shepherd of Lingzhou Prefecture, his imperial examination will be considered a complete failure." Zhang Xuance said in a calm voice.
Whether he was defending Lu Yu before or speaking now, Zhang Xuance did not protect anyone, but maintained the most basic rules.
If Lu Yu really failed in the imperial examination, although Zhang Xuance admired Lu Yu, he would not make an exception.
"Looking at the impact of these blood demons, I'm afraid it will take a few more rounds to... huh?"
An examiner was talking when he suddenly saw Lu Yu walking eastward and frowned slightly.
All the examiners stopped their discussion and focused their attention on Lu Yu.
