Chapter 18: A Narrow Encounter

Night turns to dawn.

When the sky began to appear a touch of fish belly white, Jiang Yu had already led 50,000 dark dragon guards to sneak towards Juyang.

This is the most elite combat force of the Qi country, and it is only responsible for guarding the capital of Qi Linzi in peacetime, and will never be dispatched unless it is urgent. This time, Emperor Qi sent them out, undoubtedly showing his determination to do so.

For Jiang Yu, at this moment, the army has already begun to move, and it is only a matter of time before he takes Juyang. When it was dark, it was the time when the defenders were at their weakest defense, and they were recuperating, waiting for this moment to attack.

Looking at Juyang City from afar, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Yu's mouth, everything was under control.

Although he has not entered the WTO for many years, the current dynasty and Li Ling have been able to destroy the main force in the eastern border of the Qin State, which has been able to make Jiang Yu's name resound throughout the Three Kingdoms.

In Jiang Yu's right hand, he held a spear, which was his weapon, the Five Tiger Broken Door Gun. Although he is good at scheming, on the battlefield, he is also a fierce general who is not afraid of death.

The picture is poor, and the killing machine is coming.

……

In Juyang City, the defenders were on guard.

Whether the news is true or not, they will not joke with their lives. It's just a hard time now, and if something really goes wrong, it's a cool life.

As the clock ticked from late at night to dawn, it was indeed the time when the defenders were at their most tired. They are about to change the guard, and they are not as vigilant as they used to be.

But when the guards deliberately increased the patrols of the defenders, some people still saw the appearance of the enemy in a hazy way. Isn't that light purple armor a distinctive symbol of the soldiers and horses of the Qi State?

The moment they saw the enemy, the defenders subconsciously shouted:

"Enemy attack, there is an enemy attacking the city!"

Then, the war drums at the head of the city sounded, which was to inform the soldiers and horses of the attack from all parts of the city, so that they could prepare in advance. Avoid falling into passivity in the event of a sudden encounter.

At the same time, some defenders hurried to inform the defenders.

The guard has not rested since he got the news at night, and he has rushed over after hearing the change. When he saw the crowd of enemies outside the city, he couldn't help but gasp.

Although the defenders did not know the number of enemy troops outside the city, they could still vaguely determine that they were several times the number of defenders. If they really succeed in sneak attacking, the consequences are unimaginable.

Fortunately, the guards did not turn a deaf ear to yesterday's message and strengthened vigilance in advance. Even the other soldiers and horses were on standby, and when they found the enemy approaching, they were able to defend as soon as possible.

The defenders began to pour up the tower in a steady stream, and the defenders looked at the enemy with a solemn expression, and suddenly shouted: "The Qi army is attacking the city, and the general should fight to the death with you and never retreat."

Although Juyang City is not as important as Anling, it is an extremely important part of the defense line built by Dongfang Lin. If the city falls, many of the previous efforts and warriors will be lost.

Moreover, the Qi army can also take advantage of the situation to invade the territory of Qin, and their families, relatives and friends will suffer because of this. They were soldiers of the Qin State, and from the moment they appeared on the battlefield, they should be prepared to be shrouded in horse leather.

Of course, the defenders at this moment are not pessimistic, and the battle to the death is only an uplifting word. The defense of Juyang City is very tight, and there are also a lot of equipment such as boulders and rolling logs, as long as there are no accidents, there will be no problems.

But the defenders still despised the enemy forces outside the city too much, they were not ordinary Qi troops. It is the world-famous Dark Dragon Guard of the Qi Kingdom, and the unknown Dark Dragon General Jiang Yu of this generation.

The defenders were waiting for them, but Jiang Yu's expression was a little strange at this moment.

They had just approached Juyang, how could they be easily discovered?

This doesn't make sense.

But the arrow is ready to fly, and it has to be sent. Even if the traces were discovered by the Qin army, Jiang Yu would not choose to retreat.

The so-called narrow road meets the brave wins, and the dark dragon guard is fearless.

Looking at the Juyang City Tower, Jiang Yu shouted:

"Siege."

There are not too many complicated words, just an order to attack.

The Dark Dragon Guard heard the noise, and they rushed up to the castle tower. Siege equipment such as ladders were naturally prepared in advance, and did not give the defenders much chance to react.

I have to say that Jiang Yu's order was very decisive.

In addition, when he saw that the defenders' defenses were very stubborn, his eyes flashed. The five tigers broke the door and tightened their guns, and they rushed to the front of the army and took the lead to kill the city tower.

Of course, Jiang Yu is different from ordinary soldiers, and his strength is among the best even in the entire Kyushu Continent. At this moment, charging forward, everyone could feel the incomparably fierce momentum from his body.

In the face of the attack of the Dark Dragon Guard, the defender already felt a lot of pressure. As a veteran driver on the battlefield, he quickly reacted that this was definitely not an ordinary Qi army.

But what surprised the guards even more was Jiang Yu, who came later, and his fighting spirit was extremely fierce, which could be called invincible. How can such a general be seen and unheard of?

There was no room for the defenders to hesitate at this moment, and he ordered the original archers to retreat for the time being, and a large number of rolling wooden boulders had been piled up here. This must be an uphill battle, and it will not be easily over.

These obstacles with amazing lethality finally limited Jiang Yu's charge to a certain extent. The Dark Dragon Guard, who had just attacked fiercely, was also much slower at the moment.

However, this is not a long-term solution, not only is the consumption of soldiers huge, but these resources are also limited. When the defenders' previous hoards of materials were depleted, they were destroyed.

The most important thing is that even in the face of the fierce offensive of the defenders, Jiang Yu is still moving forward steadily. This gaze was extremely determined, and many obstacles could not stop him in his way.

The guard's face was even more ugly, what was the origin of this army, and how could it be so powerful. Could it be that they are really going to perish here, maybe this is fate?

There is no way for the defenders in the city to retreat, and this is not the territory of the Qin State. When they leave the city, they will be in endless pursuit, and they will eventually be devoured.

As for Dongfang Lin's reinforcements, there may be them, but it takes a day for the news to spread, and it takes two days for the army to come over. They simply couldn't hold out for so long, and at the moment it was already at stake.

The strength of the enemy army is beyond the limits of what they can bear, and fighting to the death will not change the outcome in the end.

Perhaps the Destiny of Heaven is like this, and do the reinforcements in the letter really exist?

That's probably the only variable.

……

The two armies fought in front of Juyang City.

No one noticed that Ji Ming and Lu Bu came over with three thousand cannon fodder.

Compared with the fierce siege battle at the moment, Ji Ming and the others did not have any sense of existence. It's easy to be overlooked until they actually play, because they're not in the game.

Lu Bu and Luo Cheng set their eyes on Ji Ming, and at this moment everyone was ready, just waiting for his order.

Ji Ming watched quietly for a while, even if he was far away, he could feel the fierceness of the battlefield. This is indeed a big battle, but after all, they are praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Ming's face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "It's almost time, it's time for us to play."
