Despite this, there were still prairie soldiers climbing up the city wall. Those guys rushed up with scimitars in their mouths, wounded or on fire with arrows on their bodies, and rushed towards the city defenders, as if they didn't know the pain.
, with the foreshadowing of these front guards, it will be much easier for the companions behind to rush forward.
Woo!
In the distance, there was suddenly a rapid sound of a horn, and then the thunderous sound of hooves.
Amidst the sound of hoofbeats, it seemed as if the city walls were trembling.
That horn sound was the signal for Luger to order the attack.
For these guys who can barely walk and already know how to ride a horse, it's just a stone's throw away.
The lingering sound of the horn seemed to have not dissipated in the wind. The ten thousand cavalry had already rushed to the bottom of the city. The guards on the city wall were too tired to deal with the initial enemy and could not concentrate on the second wave.
The deputy general who was guarding the city was cut off in the arm, but he still fought bravely to kill the enemy. His eyes caught the reinforcements coming quickly under the city wall, and he suddenly became energetic and said, "The general is here, let's fight these prairie wolves!"
Those who rushed over were Zhao Kaiyong and others who had received the news. Without hesitation, Zhao Kaiyong jumped off the city wall, and he took the lead and rushed towards the city wall. "Everyone, go up the wall and kill the enemy!"
There are only a few thousand cavalry in the city, so leaving the city rashly will lead to death.
Zhao Kaiyong also knew that the only chance of victory at the moment was to defend the city wall with all his strength and not give the opponent a chance to break the city. As soon as he got the news, he rushed over immediately. He did not expect that the opponent would be so fast.
Thirty thousand newly arrived troops rushed up the city wall like a tide to join the team that destroyed the enemy. The crisis on the city wall was quickly alleviated, and the defenders regained the initiative.
Just when Zhao Kaiyong led a group of people to counterattack, suddenly there was a horn sound again. The cavalry who had rushed to the city unexpectedly turned around and ran back. Not only the cavalry, but also the grasslands who had rushed to the city wall or climbed up the city ladder.
The soldiers also quickly abandoned their opponents and retreated from the city wall.
"They are scared, don't let them run away!" Zhao Kaiyong shouted coldly, rushed over and killed a grassland soldier who was about to retreat from the city.
Soon, the enemy troops on the city wall were cleared, and many prairie soldiers were even shot and wounded during the evacuation.
Sparks scattered up and down the city walls.
There were corpses everywhere, both those of the enemy and those of the companions. The blood dyed the bricks of the city red, and also dyed everyone's weapons, clothes, and faces red. It was not clear whether it belonged to one's own body or the enemy's.
Holding the long sword high, Zhao Kaiyong glanced at the corpses of the enemy soldiers under the city wall, with a ferocious killing intent on his face, "Lu Ge, why are you retreating? You are afraid, aren't you? If you are afraid, go back to your grassland!"
"Go back to the grassland!" Many soldiers around him immediately shouted in agreement, and the morale of the defenders was high.
Looking across the faces of the surrounding soldiers, Zhao Kaiyong ordered in a deep voice, "Carry the wounded straight for treatment, and be careful to make sure there are no mistakes in the city defense!"
This battle was barely won, but the price paid was huge. It was obvious that our side's casualties were greater than those of the enemy. Zhao Kaiyong had already seen this. What he did just now was just to encourage the morale of the army, but his mood at the moment was different.
It's very heavy.
A soldier with several arrows stabbed on his body ran up the city wall and fell into the arms of his companions. Before he died, he only had time to utter a few words, "The East City Gate... was lost..."
Suddenly, the soldiers nearby were in a panic.
"What happened?!" Zhao Kaiyong felt something strange, strode over and asked.
