The cold mountains in the distance are shrouded in glow, a red halo covers the sky and the earth, the autumn wind is bleak, and the air is chilly.
City gate.
Chu Feifan personally led the generals and led the Thunder Tiger Qingqi to attack. The army, like wind and lingering clouds, galloped on the official road and headed towards the direction of Yanyun City.
Thousands of miles of sand is rising, hunting flags are flying, the generals tighten their reins, and there is a terrifying murderous aura lingering on their figures.
An hour later.
The Chu army conquered checkpoints along the way with overwhelming force. No soldiers from Yanyun City survived, and they were all slaughtered.
Corpses were everywhere on the ancient road, broken swords and broken halberds were stuck in the ground. The Chu army marched forward without stopping, heading straight for Yanyun City.
at this time.
The gates of Yanyun City were closed tightly, and the commander of the defenders, Ba Xiong, was sitting on pins and needles with a melancholy expression on his face. He was worried about the Chu army approaching the city.
For him, the current time is simply passing by like years. The memorial to Shangguan Hong has not yet arrived, and he does not know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
"General, don't worry too much. No matter how fast the Chu army marches, it will take at least two days to reach Hengyang City."
"Two days later, my emperor's edict will definitely arrive. Yanyun City is impregnable. Even if the Chu army comes to attack the city, it will be impossible to break through the city in just a few days."
Wu Yong's slender eyes flashed with light, as if he was strategizing, and he said with determination in his voice.
"I hope so!"
Baxiong always felt that the aura of danger was constantly approaching, and had a premonition that something big was going to happen in Yanyun City.
.....................
Three hours passed.
The dinner party at Ba's house has just begun. The lights in the house are brightly lit, and the maids are running through the front hall, and the delicacies in their hands are constantly being placed on the wooden table.
Ba Xiong, Balang, Wu Yong and others were having a meal when the sound of messy footsteps came and they suddenly looked up.
A black shadow stumbled towards the front hall and rushed towards him. When he saw clearly that the person coming was the general guarding the city, Baxiong's figure suddenly rose up, put down his chopsticks and stepped forward quickly.
"When did you get so alarmed!"
"General, the Chu army came to the city and launched a fierce attack on Yanyun City. Our army suffered heavy losses."
The visitor's voice was trembling, sweat was dripping from his forehead, and he looked like he was still frightened.
"What!"
"Chu Army, why did you arrive at the city so quickly? Can you clearly see that it is really the Chu Army?"
Bachong looked stunned, his voice sounded in shock, and he confirmed again and again.
"General, there is indeed a large army of Chu State outside the city, and the flying flags are embroidered with golden tigers."
"The Golden Tiger?"
Bachong had long heard that the Chu State had an invincible army, and they entered the grassland to defeat the Dai Viet Empire.
Its name is: Thunder Tiger Qingqi, the most powerful cavalry regiment in Chu State.
"Commander Wu, order all the troops to go to the gate of the city and defend Yanyun to the death. The Chu army must not take a step beyond the thunder pool."
"Subordinate, go and deliver the order right now!"
Wu Yong stood up and strode out of the house with a look of shock on his face. He did not expect that the Chu army would arrive so quickly.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Violent killing cries arose in the sky above Yanyun City, and the people in the city were terrified. When they learned that the Chu army was approaching the city, they packed their bags and prepared to flee Yanyun City.
On the long street, people and troops collided with each other and ran in panic. It was chaos and devastation.
Under Yanyun City.
Generals Huo Qubing and Yue Fei led the Thunder Tiger Qingqi, and the soldiers under the command of the Eight Meng were the 40,000-strong army heading to Prince Mingfeng's Mansion.
Nangong Yong, Gao Shun's camp, Qu Yi, and Yang Zaixing's camp were among them.
now.
Led by Qu Yi, Yang Zaixing and Niu Gao, the soldiers who first climbed into the dead camp launched a fierce attack on Yanyun City.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
The arrows flying back and forth in the void were thrilling, screams and wails resounded throughout the sky, and hundreds of ladders and vehicles continued to approach the city.
"Gao Shun, Nangong Yong listens to the order, I will give you a rush vehicle and we must break through the city gate."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. If you don't break the flames, you will come to see me in the end."
Gao Shun and Nangong Yong clasped their fists in greeting and said in unison, looking back at the soldiers trapped in the camp behind them.
"The momentum of charging means advancing but not retreating; the ambition of being trapped means death but not life."
Slogans resounded throughout the sky, and the two men took the lead, held their weapons tightly in their hands, and rushed towards the city in a frantic manner.
Smoke filled the air and war spread.
The flames on Yanyun City were soaring into the sky. Ba Xiong, Wu Yong and dozens of generals were fighting straight up. Looking at the Chu army that was madly attacking the city, their faces were as pale as paper, and their eyes were flashing with fear.
The Chu army's siege equipment was powerful, and the soldiers even risked their lives. If this continued, Yanyun City, which was considered impregnable, could not hold out until sunrise.
"General, the Chu army outside the city is attacking the city from all fronts. The rolling stones and driftwood have been exhausted, as well as the arrows. If it continues like this, I'm afraid..."
"I know, back off!"
Baxiong felt sad, his deep voice sounded, and his eyes were fixed on the Chu army roaring and running wildly under the city.
"Commander Wu, what should this battle be like? The Chu army is so powerful that it can destroy the city in a matter of days."
"General, for this plan it is best to withdraw from Yanyun City to preserve our strength, but the general will definitely not make such a decision."
"There is only one feasible strategy, which is to attack the Chu army with fire."
"Fire attack?"
When Ba Xiong heard that Wu Yong asked him to withdraw from Yanyun City, his face turned angry. At this time, he proposed to attack the Chu army with fire, and Ba Xiong's eyes instantly lit up.
"The general will burn the city to prevent the Chu army from attacking the city. If our emperor's reinforcements are delayed, our army will be trapped and die in the city."
"We don't have to worry about so much now. Preventing the Chu army from entering the city is the most important thing."
Obviously, Ba Xiong wanted to risk everything and defend Yanyun City, but just when he decided to burn the Chu army, a general from the city came in a hurry.
"General, the gate of the city is in danger. The Chu army may attack the city at any time."
"What!"
A startled shout rang out, and Ba Xiong stood up and strode towards the city. At this time, the city gate was already dying under the crazy attack of the trapped camp.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The violent crash of the car reverberated in the night sky, and a gap appeared in the city gate. The soldiers from the trapped camp pressed their shields against the door, and everyone roared and banged in unison.
The sound of impact kept coming, and Chu Feifan glanced sideways at Huo Qubing and Yue Fei, with a cold murderous look on his face.
"Generals, listen to the order and the city gate will be broken. Follow me and fight into Yanyun City."
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The loud killing cries outside the city filled the sky. Baxiong looked at the precarious city gate, his face as pale as paper.
"The general ordered the army to withdraw. If we don't leave, it will be too late!"
"Commander Wu, I have been guarding Yanyun City for decades, and now you want me to abandon the city and flee?"
"impossible!"
"I would rather die in war than be a slave to the country's subjugation!"
"All the soldiers obeyed the order and lined up in the city to fight to the death with the Chu army."
Ba Xiong held the ax tightly in his hand, glanced at Wu Yong with disgust, turned around, jumped on his horse, and led his generals to rush towards the end of the long street.
"What's the trouble?"
"If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. If you insist on going your own way, you will only waste the lives of all the soldiers."
Wu Yong sighed softly, with a look of helplessness on his face, and a low voice sounded.
Asking for rewards, asking for recommendation votes, and asking for monthly votes.
