As daybreak approaches, the offensive in southern Xinjiang becomes more and more fierce, and people are constantly added to the front line. They are determined to capture Xiang'an City today...
But it’s understandable if you think about it, this is already the second day. Xiang’an City’s reinforcements can arrive in three days. They don’t want to be attacked from behind and cut off their retreat. The best way is to capture Xiang’an City within today.
In order to capture the city of Xiang'an, Southern Xinjiang can pay any price, and tens of thousands of casualties are nothing at all.
When the generals guarding the city saw this, they did not panic. They called out all the resting soldiers, and the whole city, men, women, old and young, went to the city wall together to guard the city gate.
Live or die with Xiang'an City!
This is the belief of everyone in the city.
This battle lasted from dawn to noon. The defenders in Xiang'an City could still hold on. They were not tired. Even the old people and children stood upright on the city wall. Although their faces were tired, they were in good spirits.
Complete.
They can still fight, at least until this time tomorrow, there will be no problem, but...
The weapons in the city won't last until tomorrow!
"Sir, the Changmao guarding the city has been used too many times and has become useless."
"Sir, the stone is gone."
"The kerosene is also gone."
"The knife...is curled!"
"The gun tip is blunt."
…
The armaments in Xiang'an City are not large, but no amount of them can withstand the desperate charge of the Southern Xinjiang people. After paying the price of 50,000 soldiers' lives in Southern Xinjiang, Xiang'an City's armaments are exhausted...
"No knife! No gun! No stone! No thatch! Then use our flesh and blood to stop those evil thieves in southern Xinjiang." The eyes of the general guarding the city were red, but his gaze was like a torch, and he did not flinch.
In other words, they won this battle even though they failed to defend Xiang'an City.
They paid the price of 500 casualties and killed 50,000 people in southern Xinjiang.
If this number spreads out, everyone in the world will laugh at Nan Jinzhao and the people in southern Xinjiang for their incompetence.
Even if they lose, they win, and if Southern Xinjiang wins, they also lose.
After this battle, the incompetence of the people of Southern Xinjiang will spread throughout the world, and no one will be afraid of the soldiers of Southern Xinjiang.
A word from the general who defended the city mobilized the enthusiasm of everyone in the city.
They are not afraid of death!
They were just afraid that they would not be able to kill a few more soldiers from Southern Xinjiang before they died.
The people in the city were ready to use their flesh and blood to block the soldiers and horses of southern Xinjiang, but at this moment...
The noisy sound of horse hooves and horns sounded.
"Woooooooooo..." The unique sound of the horn resounded through the sky, lingering in everyone's ears. People in Xiang'an City knew after just hearing it once...
"The reinforcements have arrived! The reinforcements have arrived!" This is the unique horn sound determined by their princess. The horn is also specially made. Ordinary horns cannot make this sound. The most important thing is...
This unique horn sound has not spread yet. This is the first time it has been used on the battlefield. Only their own people know about it.
"The reinforcements have arrived! The reinforcements have arrived!" Everyone in Xiang'an City, men, women, old and young, cheered happily when they heard the horn sound, "Our Xiang'an City has defended! Those people in southern Xinjiang are finished!"
"Our city is still ours, we defended it."
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
The people in Xiang'an City cheered happily, changing from their previous decadence and becoming extremely excited.
Halfway through the battle, the opponent suddenly changed his attitude. The soldiers in southern Xinjiang were immediately confused, especially when they heard the people from Xiang'an City shouting that reinforcements had arrived...
The sound of horns and the sound of horse hooves they just heard were reinforcements from Xiang'an City?
The reinforcements from Xiang'an City have arrived, what should they do?
Is this battle still going on?
Didn't we agree that the reinforcements would only arrive in three days? Why did they arrive so early?
"General, general, the reinforcements have arrived." The soldiers who were rushing to the front stopped immediately when they heard that the reinforcements had arrived and stopped fighting.
"I heard it... Go and inquire to see how many reinforcements there are." Shang Feng, who led the charge, had blood on his face and many scratches on his body. He looked extremely embarrassed and his spirit was a bit depressed.
Obviously, this day and night of fighting had made him very depressed.
Just think about it... He sacrificed 50,000 lives, even if he didn't break the city, but only received 500 casualties from the other side. If this number were to be revealed, he would not be ashamed to show it to anyone.
People in southern Xinjiang did not dare to move until the situation was clear.
The city of Xiang'an could not be broken for a while. After hearing the announcement, they knew that the reinforcements were not far away from them, but they were not sure that they could capture the city before the reinforcements arrived.
The fighting was going on fiercely during the siege, and it suddenly stopped, as if it was mid-sentence, which made people feel uncomfortable, but at this time, no one cared about whether it was painful or not...
The scouts quickly reported the news, and King Yanbei sent out fifty thousand reinforcements.
Fifty thousand reinforcements is not right, but don’t forget, they only have one hundred thousand people left now. Previously, they had one hundred and fifty thousand, and they couldn’t do anything to the five thousand people in Xiang’an City. Now, they have one hundred thousand people, and they can’t do anything to the King of Yanbei.
Fifty thousand soldiers?
"Why, how come there are so many reinforcements? When did the King of Yanbei have so many soldiers? Didn't he bring all the troops and horses?" Before starting the war, they touched the King of Yanbei's arms.
At the end of the day, I know that King Yanbei has many soldiers and horses, but...
King Yanbei also had a lot of cities in his hands. If he wanted to send people to defend the city, his troops and horses would have to be dispersed. According to what they knew, King Yanbei could not raise 50,000 horses in a short period of time.
"Report, report..." Before the question on the summit was answered, the messenger held up a letter and said urgently: "The king has ordered the general to go back immediately to rescue the king!"
"What's going on?" Shang Feng's face changed, and he took the letter from the messenger's hand. His face turned dark when he saw it!
When they gathered 150,000 troops to attack Xiang'an City, King Yanbei brought 100,000 troops to besiege their king and Tianqi Imperial City.
The imperial city of Tianqi was about to be destroyed, and their king was also trapped in the camp, unable to advance or retreat.
"One hundred thousand, fifty thousand... How come the King of Yanbei has so many soldiers and horses in his hands?" Are they being tricked by the King of Yanbei?
For more than half a year, King Yanbei only trained his troops and developed his power, with no intention of attacking anyone. They thought King Yanbei was accumulating power and wanted to destroy them in one fell swoop, so...
Their king wanted to make the first move.
But now it seems that things may not be that simple.
The King of Yanbei was indeed quietly developing his power, but he did not want to wait until his power became large enough to unify the four countries before sending out troops. Instead, he kept waiting for them, waiting for them to be unable to restrain themselves, and waiting for them to disperse their troops so that he could capture them all in one fell swoop.
Apocalypse.
"Xiangzhuang's sword dance was for Duke Pei. The King of Yanbei was for the Apocalypse. He never paid attention to our southern border from the beginning to the end. What he wanted... was always the Apocalypse."
Shangfeng looked at the letter in his hand and felt cold...
He wants to rescue the king, but can he do it? (To be continued)
