Ye Heng's arrow ended the life of a young man of his age. For Heijo, it was a great pleasure that he had removed a very threatening enemy. However, for the young archer, Ye Heng destroyed his dream of becoming a hero and returning triumphantly.

The death of the young archer must have been a disaster for his family, and undoubtedly a bad news for his sweetheart who was looking forward to his return! When he set out on the expedition, he must have dreams and hope to fight for a better future with his own efforts, but his bright future, like all the great men who have achieved fame, will be realized by destroying the dreams of many people. It's just that he was unlucky, and he never had a chance to get to that point again.

Similarly, if it is Ye Heng who dies now, the damage to the people around him will also be very deep, such as snow wolf, Sanmen Jun and other confidants, it is no exaggeration to say that Ye Heng's death is equivalent to the fall of the sky on their heads, and it is really hard to imagine what their lives will become in the future.

Therefore, war is cruel to either side, and from their respective standpoints, the one who kills more on their own side is a hero and is worshipped, while the other side kills more is the devil, which is deeply hated. But on the other hand, the hero you think is not the devil in the eyes of the other party, and you can't wait to eat him alive. Whether the outcome of the war is won or lost, the damage suffered by both sides is heavy. For the people of Minping, living and working in peace and contentment is the greatest blessing. Staying away from war, away from strife, and living an ordinary life, this is the biggest dream of many people who have suffered from war. However, when people live in ordinary happiness, will they forget the wounds and pains, sufferings and sorrows of war?

As long as a war is waged, it is definitely a feast for a very small number of people, and the nightmare of the vast majority of people, regardless of whether the final outcome is victory or defeat, will be left to all the parties involved in the war, and it will be a deep pain and an unforgettable injury.

However, since there is a war, there is always a difference between justice and non-justice, and for the righteous side, even if it will leave permanent pain, the war must be fought to the end! If you don't insist on what you are right, who will help you? If you are the righteous side and you don't fight, who will look up to you?

In fact, fighting a war is the same as getting along with each other, and for the bad guys, you must resist and never condone it. The more you connive, the more jerk he becomes, the more you retreat, the more he pushes forward step by step, the more you dare not face it, the more he will intensify, he will take your efforts for granted, and he will take your grievances as willing. You don't hit your left cheek and let go of your right cheek, and if you foolishly think that if you put your right cheek out, he will feel guilty and can't do it, then you are very wrong! If he really had this kind of awareness, he would not have made the first slap. If you give in, you will hurt yourself in the end, and you will even lose everything you originally had!

This is a simple truth, so the soldiers and civilians in Pingcheng faced the rebels again and again, and they were united in their hearts and minds, and never gave in! They would rather die in the struggle than steal their lives under the iron heel of the enemy. If you don't live well under the fence, how can you live easily when you are ruled by others?

Life is precious, but freedom is even more valuable! The soldiers and people of Pingcheng are united in their hearts, and they have long been determined to destroy the people in the city, and if the rebels want to fight us, we will fight for as long as they want, and we will fight until the end of the victory! No matter how ferocious the enemy is, no matter how fierce their attack is, as long as there is still a person in the city who does not fall, we will accompany us to the end!

The rebels attacked in batches, and the battle was still very anxious from morning to noon, most of the catapults on both sides were no longer usable, and there were many fewer stones flying in the air, but the battle on the ground was even more tragic!

Although the gate of Heicheng was not breached, the west gate was completely damaged, and if it were not for a large number of heavy objects behind the gate, the rebels would have killed them. There is already a huge crack in the north gate, as long as the siege vehicle hits it a few more times, it will inevitably break, but fortunately, the siege vehicle in front of the city gate has been smashed and can no longer be used. However, the rebels paid a very high price in order to breach these two gates, and many soldiers fell in front of the two gates, and if someone had not moved these corpses to both sides in time, the siege vehicles would have been unable to move.

Under the walls of Pingcheng, several siege engines had been smashed by large stones thrown down, and the corpses of the rebels were drowned. Beneath the walls, the corpses of the rebels piled up higher and higher, some still burning in the fire. Although the rebels have been extinguishing the fire, the Heijo army has continued to burn fire oil and create new fire points, so the fire under the city wall has hardly stopped, and the fire has accumulated black smoke, and more and more corpses have been burned.

Under Han Kaiyuan's dispatch, the rebels' offensive has not weakened, especially at the city wall that crashed out of the hole, which is the focus of the fierce confrontation between the two sides. The Pingcheng army wanted to plug these holes, and the judgment army desperately tried to kill from here, and the fierce fighting continued, and more and more soldiers died in these places on both sides, and finally the accumulated corpses slowly blocked these holes. When the Heijo army blocked the rebels outside the city, they would immediately throw the corpses inside the city to the entrance of the cave, blocking the enemy's approach. The rebels could not enter, so they had to remove the corpses from the cave one by one, re-present the hole, and then continue to fight into the city to start a new round of fighting. Dotted Library

On the city wall, the infantry of the rebels continued to climb up the siege ladder one after another, and the Pingcheng army tried their best to defend it, but still could not stop all the rebels, and from time to time someone climbed over the city head and killed the city wall. Those who can attack the city wall with their own strength are all the elites in the army, and their lethality is so powerful, in order to eliminate these people, the Pingcheng defenders bear a very big price! Moreover, from time to time, there are middle and third-order warriors who jump up from the siege ladder and jump onto the city wall, and their lethality is even more ferocious, which is a nightmare for the ordinary strength of the city defenders. Fortunately, there are killers in the fourteen plum blossoms from time to time, and the rescue team of the snow wolf extinguishes the fire everywhere, otherwise, as long as one place cannot be defended, the rebels will continue to enter Pingcheng along the siege ladder, and at that time it will really be a spark that can ignite the plain, and Pingcheng will really be breached!

Seeing that it was already noon, and both sides who had been fighting all morning were exhausted, Han Kaiyuan saw that there was no sign of capturing Pingcheng, and he was extremely annoyed in his heart, and ordered: "Order all troops to change their men and continue to attack, and they can't stop for a moment! The replaced army immediately eats and rests, ready to continue to fight at any time!"

After the rebels who were besieging the city in front retreated, they lay flat on the ground, panting one by one, and they didn't care about eating. Looking left and right, he found that there were many fewer soldiers with whom he was spending his day and night, and while congratulating that he was able to come back alive, a deep sense of sadness rose from the bottom of his heart. It was hard to slow down, and one by one there was still the desire to eat, but as a qualified soldier, he had to restrain his emotions, even if he didn't have the slightest appetite, he had to force himself to eat. Not only to eat, but also to eat more, because they know that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and after eating this meal, who knows when the next meal will be, maybe this is the last meal they will eat in their lives. Therefore, the soldiers who retreated were silent, and everyone made a bowl full of rice, and found a random place to squat down and devour it.

In Pingcheng, the kitchen prepared the meal, and the kitchen assistant worked with the civilians in the city to deliver the food to the front line for the soldiers to eat. Due to the small number of troops in the garrison, it was impossible to rotate on a large scale, and the original 3,000 men and horses had already been scattered to various places to support, and everyone sent meals to the city walls, and even to the hands of the defenders. The soldiers who received the food hurriedly stuffed their stuff into their mouths and continued to return to their defensive positions, some of them joining the battle while chewing the food, not even noticing what they were eating. A very small number of fighters were killed by the rebels who rushed up before they could swallow what was in their mouths, and the food in their mouths became the last meal they ate in their lives.

General Gao Lang was already covered in blood, but this blood was all from the rebels, and when he saw the enemy soldiers jumping on the wall, he would kill them from time to time, disappear and return to his command position immediately. With Ye Heng by his side, none of the arrows that hid him hit, and they were all cut down by Ye Heng with a knife. On the other hand, Ye Heng, he kept pulling his bow and releasing arrows, and after a morning of shooting, half of the archers on the opposite side fell under his arrows.

"City Lord, I didn't expect your archery skills to be so good! You alone suppressed all the archers on the opposite side, if not, our casualties would definitely be greater!" Gao Lang looked at Ye Heng and shot another archer of the rebels, and sighed sincerely.

"I wanted to shoot the commander of the rebels, but unfortunately he hid too far!" Ye Heng said regretfully.

After Ye Heng began to shoot the rebels' archers, Han Kaiyuan quickly noticed him and immediately retreated more than a dozen zhang. Although such a distance was still within Ye Heng's range, when the arrow reached his side, the lethality was not too great. In addition, Han Kaiyuan's own cultivation was not weak, and there were people around him to protect him, so it was impossible to pose a mortal threat to him, so Ye Heng turned a blind eye to him and did not shoot an arrow at him in the morning. First, it is unlikely that he will indeed kill him, and second, he is afraid of startling the snake, Ye Heng has been thinking about taking Han Kaiyuan's life while he is not paying attention, so he has endured it and did not make a move on him.

"Then let Han Kaiyuan live for a few more days! City Lord, judging from the siege intensity of the rebels, it is really not easy for us to defend it until now! This siege strength is much stronger than Wu Jing, the last time Pingcheng was almost lost, this time it can be defended, I really want to thank you!" Gao Lang looked at the anxious battle situation, without showing any worry, and was in the mood to chat with Ye Heng.

"You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank the soldiers and civilians of the city, without their bloody and selfless efforts, we can't hold Pingcheng at all. Ye Heng glanced around and said with emotion.

"I know this, but the person who has improved Pingcheng's defense capability so much is you! The team of men and horses you brought is really all equipped with unique skills, and it is no exaggeration to say that the average combat power is much higher than that of our army in Gupingzhou! Don't look at the fierce battle now, but I am not worried at all. Gao Lang said confidently.

"General Gao, it's good if you have confidence, this is a battle we can't afford to lose, if we can't hold Pingcheng, once it is breached, I'm afraid they will slaughter the city. Ye Heng said solemnly.

"City Lord, don't worry, they don't have this chance! If Pingcheng is breached, it must be because everyone in the city died in the battle to defend the city. Do you see those busy figures in the city? They are all the people of Pingcheng, they are doing what they can do, if our soldiers die, they will definitely not abandon the city and surrender, they will become the last army of our Pingcheng, and fight to the death against the rebels!" Gao Lang said excitedly.
