Chapter 9: Life and Death

At this moment, a layer of corpses of the Qin army was already piled up at the foot of the city wall, because it was the doctor who accompanied the army in the siege battle, and it was only available in the military camp commanded by the commander in the rear.

Many soldiers of the Qin army, who were injured but unable to move, were wailing in pain and weakness. Because there were no conditions for treatment and bandaging, many wounded soldiers died due to excessive blood loss, and the thick smell of blood wafted on the wall with the real yellow wind.

On the wall, Wu Ming kept coming and going, teaching the soldiers how to effectively throw stones and rolling logs at each cloud ladder entrance. And from time to time, he also helped the soldiers around him to block deadly attacks. In addition, he was also responsible for the task of settling the wounded, and he couldn't care about any generals or not.

An arrow pierced the sky with a sound and appeared in the eyes of a soldier, and when the soldier raised the shield in his hand to block the arrow, a hideous and bloodstained face of a Qin army on the cloud ladder stabbed straight up.

The attack came almost at the same time, which gave the soldier no time to resist at all, and when he saw that a sword was about to pierce his thigh, a blade next to him instantly crossed over to block the sword. And within two moves, he solved the Qin soldier who was about to climb the wall.

The warrior who had avoided the bloody disaster suddenly looked up, but saw that the person was the pioneer Wu Ming.

In the sky, a few clouds fluttered, leaving a shadow on the wall. In a hurry, Wu Ming exhorted loudly: "Everyone be careful, try your best to let Lao Tzu live......"

Before the voice fell, he hurriedly turned around, and at this moment, three arrows reflecting the bright light shot towards Wu Ming. Under the instinctive reaction, Wu Ming flipped sideways to avoid the fatal position, but there were still two blood marks on the left shoulder, but fortunately, the injury was not serious.

"Phew......"

Tearing a piece of cloth robe on his body, Wu Ming bandaged the wound with one hand and his teeth, and then stood up along the wall with his sword.

Looking at it, not far from the city, the third team of soldiers of the Qin army had also begun to act.

……

Boom...... Boom...... Boom......

The sound of war drums faintly heard not far away became louder and louder, one higher than the other, one stronger than the other, and the moment became tighter and closer, as if the whole world was brightened.

"Kill ......"

Under the city, a general of the Qin army who couldn't see how cold his face could be waved his sword, and the second team of Qin troops began to sprint, and the last fifty meters of distance had been buried under the heavy trampling of the Qin army in the blink of an eye.

The gust of wind passed, and the yellow dust filled the sky, and many Wei soldiers on the city tower couldn't open their eyes. The warriors who had originally wielded swords raised their shields to resist, and the crossbowmen just fired blindly in one direction.

When the wind and dust just passed, I only heard the sound of rushing and killing one after another under the city. Wu Ming, who was protected by the city wall, shook his head, stretched out his hand to wipe the dust off his face, and looked up, only to see that the Qin army had rushed through the last thirty meters in a few breaths like a cheetah, and the first few soldiers began to climb the ladder.

Under the command of several generals, the soldiers of the Qin army did not care about their lives, and one by one they forgot to die and climbed straight to the cloud ladder and rushed to the city gate.

Xu is rushing over the way is much easier than the first team, but this team of Qin Jun is more powerful, and even more desperate for life and death.

……

"Soldiers, the city of Linjin Pass is about to be broken, and they all work hard, break the city to avenge the dead brothers, and they are ashamed." The general of the third team in the rear looked coldly, and his voice roared throughout the whole army.

"The city is broken, and the brothers are rushing."

"Rush ......"

The eyes of the 10,000 soldiers were full of fire, and they were full of fighting spirit.

……

The city wall, which had already been stained red with blood, was covered by dense Qin troops again and again, and the corpses at the base of the city wall were raised layer by layer like stacked blocks.

A Wei guard picked up a stone and smashed it on the ladder, the boulder fell, and the four Qin soldiers killed two in an instant. The other two were struck in the shoulder, their bodies swaying and falling with the clatter of broken bones, just as they hit another companion who had climbed to the middle of the ladder.

In the rear, a column of crossbowmen squatted down, held the bow and crossbow in their hands high, and after a round of arrow rain was shot, a Wei soldier who had just lifted a stone was hit by an arrow in the left chest and abdomen. The stone fell to the ground from the top of his head, and the eyes full of hatred had not closed him, but he was no longer breathing, and his body fell to the ground in an instant.

The soldiers of the Qin army under the ladder roared again and rushed to the top of the ladder, and one soldier swung his sword vigorously to cut off most of the flesh from the legs of the Wei soldiers defending the city, leaving only the white bones of the forest to be exposed to the bloody air.

"Ah......h

The soldiers of the Qin State, who had just buried one leg, were hit head-on by the stones, and fell from the city wall with blood on their faces in an unwilling muffled snort.

"Haha, ha...... Die, die, damn Qin......"

The soldier whose leg had been cut off screamed menacingly, and the pain he endured was evident from the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and he finally fell unconscious in a smaller and smaller roar.

The soldiers at the mouth of the ladder fell to the ground, and the surrounding crossbowmen immediately threw down their crossbows and crossbows, came to the mouth of the ladder, lifted stones and rolling logs, and smashed the Qin troops who climbed up again and again.

……

But looking at the corpses all over the ground, instead of flinching in the slightest, the smell of blood made the war in their hearts burn more vigorously.

The roar that shook the sky became louder and louder, and more and more Qin troops began to scramble to climb up the ladder, and the move at this moment was nothing more than the sentence "Even if you use your body to break through, you have to break through a gap"

All of a sudden, everyone went crazy, there were boulders and rolling logs defending the city, even if you fell as dense as raindrops, but the Qin army below still shouted and charged as long as there were still people alive. That momentum had already made the real tiger wolf retreat.

The two soldiers climbed to the top of the ladder together, and together they took the first leg to the tower. Suddenly, a long, heavy log was lifted and smashed by two defenders.

The two soldiers of the Qin army flew out directly upside down as soon as their hands loosened under the huge impact, and on the way to fall from the void, their chests were hot, and a mouthful of blood gushed out, and the blood was red all over the sky, like a woman scattering flowers that day.

The next two Qin soldiers lowered their heads slightly to dodge, but the steps under their feet kept rushing upward, and the next second one jumped hard, and the moment his body jumped up and landed on the city wall, he swung his sword and stabbed out, and the sharp tip of the sword was instantly buried in the body of a soldier defending the city with a cold glow, but before he could draw out his sword, two cold soldiers had already stabbed into his body one after the other.

However, in the midst of the pain, he smiled with relief, because the gap in the wall had been opened. In the next moment, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the moment the sword was drawn, the blood of the two hollow wounds gushed like pillars.

The dumping of two corpses again.

……

At this moment, the fighters on both sides of the attack and defense have done their best, and the war has entered a white-hot stage. The casualties of the Wei guards also began to increase, and now no less than 7,000 soldiers have been killed.

……

"Report ...... Report to the general, there is not much left of the boulder rolling wood on the city tower, and he is afraid that he will not be able to stop the next charge of the Qin army. A soldier with armor covered in blood rushed to Wu Ming's front and reported aloud.

The worst has come......
