Lu Gang asked Yan Chengdong: "What do you think of your king now?"
Yan Chengdong replied: "I don't know."
Lu Gang asked: "Then why are you still fighting to your death here?"
Yan Chengdong glanced at Lu Gang and looked casual, but he answered seriously: "Because this is my home."
He looked at Lu Gang: "Why are you fighting to the death here, sir?"
Lu Gang thought for a while and replied: "Because my home is behind Dongbo."
The two people looked at each other and then smiled.
This is the first time Yan Chengdong has seen this Jade Lord smile.
At this time, Loufan people's horn sounded again, and the crowd below also gathered again.
Yan Chengdong took off the kettle and shook it. There was still half a jug of water.
He placed it next to Lu Gang.
"Sir, you should live longer than me."
Lu Gang didn't say anything because Yan Chengdong was right.
The Loufan people rushed forward. They were all cavalry and were not good at this kind of siege warfare, but they also had their own mission.
The more than a thousand people who first arrived here were already dead, and now Huhad's soldiers came up.
This cavalry team of nearly 10,000 people was ordered by Marshal Helianyu to walk at the forefront as the vanguard of the large group of troops.
The mission of their team is to control the Donglin Canyon as soon as possible and occupy the deer herding platform.
When the vanguard army of more than 1,200 people arrived at the Donglin Gorge, they never expected that someone was already guarding the deer herding platform.
The officials they bribed said that the 800 elite Dongbo soldiers in Fanglutai had been transferred away long ago.
So they were caught off guard as soon as they arrived. Four to five hundred of them were attacked and killed without any precautions.
Those beauties were hidden, making the Deer Fang Terrace look like an empty city.
After the Loufan people came up, when they immediately entered the deer-herding platform, the Yu Ling Guards fired their bows and crossbows.
The Loufan people who were beaten down did not retreat immediately. When there were only seven or eight hundred people left, they actually chose to attack forcefully.
It was also the first time that Yu Lingwei's people faced Lou Fan's soldiers.
They saw the ferocious faces of the Loufan people, but the most terrifying thing was not the ferociousness, but the belief of the Loufan people in fighting.
Out of seven to eight hundred people, after the sixth charge, only about thirty were left.
With Yu Lingwei's strong martial arts skills, tacit cooperation, and Stone City, the losses were not huge.
But when they watched helplessly as the remaining thirty or so Lou Fan cavalry attacked again, they were still frightened and shocked.
Those thirty or so people didn't even get within ten feet of the deer platform, and they all died on the steep slope.
Lu Gang ordered to go down as soon as possible to recover some usable weapons, whether they were theirs or those of the Loufan people, and take as many as they could.
Before they could really take a breath, Huhad's team arrived.
About eight thousand cavalry.
In the valley, these cavalrymen dismounted and looked up. All they saw were the corpses of their comrades.
Huhad's anger suddenly boiled up. He ordered a fierce attack and would not stop until the deer herding platform was taken.
Lu Gang shot down the Lou Fan soldier in the distance with an arrow. He looked sideways and saw that Yan Chengdong's hand was bleeding.
Yan Chengdong is a hunter, he can shoot arrows, but he has never drawn the bow so many times in one day.
His fingers had been cut open by the bowstring, and blood was flowing down his hands.
But he didn't care. He adjusted his position slightly and continued to fire arrows at those Loufan people.
Lu Gang took off his protective finger and handed it to Yan Chengdong. Yan Chengdong shook his head: "Your Majesty, you have shot more than me. It is more useful for you to keep it."
Lu Gang was silent for a moment and put the finger guard back on.
He fired arrows faster.
However, when he reached for the quiver again, he missed it. There was no arrow in the kettle.
Yan Chengdong handed over his arrow pot. There were still more than ten arrows left in it.
Lu Gang asked: "What about you?"
Yan Chengdong lifted a stone and said, "I have it."
There were too many people in Loufan. When they arrived not far from the deer herding platform, Yan Chengdong stood up and threw the rocks down hard.
The helmet of a Loufan man was completely deflated. The next breath, blood flowed from the deflated helmet.
Yan Chengdong smiled.
He bent down and picked up another stone. The moment he stood up, an arrow flew over.
The arrow came in front of him and he couldn't dodge it.
There was a soft snap.
Lu Gang casually grabbed the arrow, took it and put it on the bowstring. He released the arrow and shot a Lou Fan soldier through.
"Thank you, sir."
Yan Chengdong laughed again.
He picked up the stone and threw it down again. Another Loufan man rolled down with his stone.
Another feathered arrow flew towards him, and it was once again caught by Lu Gang in front of Yan Chengdong.
The governor, who had no regard for life, saved a Dongbo person for the second time who he didn't even care about.
When he aimed the arrow, another arrow flew over and hit Yan Chengdong in the face.
The arrow was slightly deflected, piercing the side of the nose and piercing under the ear.
Yan Chengdong fell to the ground and the stone fell, hitting his own feet.
He lay there, his eyes a little empty.
Lu Gang looked sideways at him, his eyes that were still indifferent to everything before were no longer indifferent, and he looked a little moved.
Yan Chengdong said: "Sir, I am dead and this arrow must be shot back."
Lu Gang was startled.
He just broke off the arrow, took Yan Chengdong and threw it back: "Give him medicine."
Yu Lingwei came up and wanted to bandage Yan Chengdong, but Yan Chengdong grabbed Yu Lingwei's hand.
"Don't waste the medicine on me, I will die eventually."
There was a bloody hole on his face, and when he spoke, not only was the hole bleeding, but it was also bleeding out of his mouth.
He didn't care, he didn't even seem to know the pain.
Under the surprised and shocked gaze of Yu Lingwei, he got up and ran back to the city wall.
This time, Lu Gang, who was concentrating on killing the enemy, didn't notice him.
Yan Chengdong picked up a stone and threw it down, killing another enemy.
But there were four more feathered arrows on his chest. All four arrows pierced him, and the arrow clusters were exposed on his back.
Because he had no protective gear on him.
He fell down and lay there looking at the sky, breathing heavily, but he felt like he was just short of breath.
The more you exhale, the worse it gets.
"grown ups......."
He said: "Don't let my daughter know that I died so ugly. I won't go see her and her mother. I'll be scared... and it's not good to be scared."
Lu Gang heard this and looked sideways, seeing that Yan Chengdong had closed his eyes.
Lu Gang stood there, his eyes getting redder and redder.
【Do you know your monarch?】
【I don’t know.】
【Then why are you fighting so hard?】
【This is my home.】
Lu Gang took a deep breath, strode over, and pulled out the four arrows from Yan Chengdong's body. The arrows were drawn with great force and very fast. Yan Chengdong's flesh was hanging on the barbed arrow clusters.
Lu Gang shot back all four arrows, and each arrow killed at least one Loufan person.
Lu Gang felt it was not enough.
Without warning, he drew his knife and jumped down. Under the shocked and surprised eyes of other Dongbo people, he just jumped down.
He jumped, and the nearby Yu Ling Guards drew their swords one after another. Without any hesitation, they followed Lu Gang and jumped down. The sword lights lit up again and again in the crowd of Lou Fan, and people died one by one.
Lu Gang didn't know how many people he killed. When he killed all the people in front of him, he realized that Lou Fan's attack had been suppressed again.
Behind him stood four or five Yu Lingwei covered in blood.
There were forty or fifty people who jumped down with Lu Gang.
There were densely packed corpses of Loufan people all around, and the smell of blood was so strong that it was not only in people's noses, but also in their brains.
Lu Gang took a deep breath and flew back to the city wall. Someone lowered the rope and brought back the four or five Yu Ling Guards.
Lu Gang looked back and saw Yan Chengdong still lying there, his face so white.
Someone handed over a kettle. Lu Gang took it and took a sip of water without paying attention. After drinking, he saw clearly that this was the one Yan Chengdong placed next to him.
In silence, Lu Gang hung the kettle on his belt.
Below the steep slope.
Huhad's face looked a little ugly.
He had already seen clearly that there were not many people guarding the deer herding platform, only a few hundred.
But among those hundreds of people, there was an absolutely strong man in the Wuyue realm.
"Gather all the shields of the army."
Huhad loudly ordered.
What's wrong with a strong man in the Wuyue realm? He has eight thousand warriors!
On Stone City, Lu Gang sat down next to Yan Chengdong's body.
He took a look at the body and saw that Yan Chengdong had his eyes closed, and he breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
It's good to die with your eyes closed.
Yan Chengdong's wish has come true.
He is an ordinary hunter, an ordinary man in winter, he is a husband and a father, and he has enough reasons to choose to escape rather than risk his life here.
But he didn't choose to escape.
Yan Chengdong said, I asked my mother-in-law to take my daughter to Xiantang City.
He said, my mother-in-law and I said that if Xiantang City is also besieged, you don't have to rush to fight, we still have a daughter.
if......
If all the men standing on the city wall are dead, then you go, regardless of whether other women go, you just go.
Because if all the men guarding the city are killed and no one is left, then the Loufan people will not let anyone in the city go.
Zhentian gave the men stronger bodies, so the men should stand at the front. After the men are dead, the women will stand where the men died.
Lu Gang heard what Yan Chengdong said. At that time, Lu Gang thought, these Dongbo people are really stupid.
At this moment, Lu Gang woke up.
Dongbo is different from Dayu. A small country like Dongbo has experienced too many invasions by enemies.
Their dignity in living lies in being at home with their country, and their dignity in dying lies in fighting and dying.
"Who still has wine?"
Lu Gang suddenly shouted loudly.
One of the Yu Ling Guards came forward and handed over the jug. There was still about a bottle of wine left in the jug.
Lu Gang tore off a piece of clothing, carefully poured some wine on it, and wiped Yan Chengdong's face with the piece of cloth.
Wipe it very carefully.
He is really a person who has no regard for life. Not to mention these Dongbo people, even his men will die when he thinks they deserve to die.
This time, Lu Gang felt that they did not deserve to die, not even the Dongbo people who climbed onto the city wall with weapons that were not weapons.
Many people died before his eyes.
He wiped it really carefully, seriously and slowly.
When he wiped the bloodless face until it was white and clean, his hand stopped at the wound.
"rest assured."
He said: "They are not that ugly. If you can go and see them, go and see them. No big deal... just look at them from a distance."
