Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Destruction of the City Is Imminent
Three full hours passed.
Since the Qin army decided to break the cauldron and attack the city from all sides, Yewang City has become a flat boat in the sea. The wind and waves are high, the waves are rough, and the boat is in danger of sinking at any time.
The Qin army is a black wave, always rolling in, endlessly. Over and over again, it hit the already crumbling Wild King City. Each time, the black tide overflowed the city, but each time, the tide always reluctantly receded.
The battle was in full swing from the start, without any prelude. The Qin army decisively invested all its forces, wave after wave, and continuous attacks ravaged the small Yewang City.
The first to be anxious was the north gate of the Qin army's main attack, followed by the west gate, the south gate, and the east gate in turn. The heavy casualties could not shake the Qin army's determination to attack the city, on the contrary, it aroused the anger of the Qin army.
The lieutenant in charge of the attack on the north gate of Yewang reported to Hu Yang that the casualties were too great and the soldiers were tired, and asked to suspend the attack. Hu Yang replied directly: "I don't want casualties, I just want the wild king!" ā
Under the shame of the captain, he personally led the elite of the whole army to storm the north gate and died on the spot. Hu Yang immediately promoted the only remaining military marquis to the captain of the department, and he had only one order: to take down the wild king at any cost, even if even his entire army was killed in battle!
In less than four hours, the Qin army paid more than 10,000 casualties, and the Korean army also lost more than 3,000 casualties. The prince had to transfer the tiger cavalry to the head of the city to participate in the defense.
There is no way, there are 20,000 Qin State Iron Horsemen outside. If the tiger riders really dared to go out and charge into battle, they wouldn't mind taking three thousand tiger horses to wash away yesterday's shame.
Under the cruel and ruthless orders of the Qin army commander, and under the stimulation of constant blood and fighting, more and more Qin troops lost their minds, and the Qin army that lost their minds became more and more terrifying.
Besiege! Besiege! Attack and kill all these Korean dogs! This is the only thought on the minds of most Qin people.
The South Korean army, which was obviously undernumbered, became more and more overstretched. In just four hours, nearly half of the casualties were killed. The Korean army had to prematurely devote Qingzhuang to the defense of the city.
Even so, the huge gap between the Han army and the Qin army could not be filled with young and strong. No matter how desperate the Korean youth is, they can barely maintain a 1:1 casualty ratio with the Qin army.
How many Korean people fell into the city in desperation, holding the Qin army. It's the only thing they can do for their families before they die. At this moment, life becomes small and ideals become humble. If you can't survive, then let's perish together!
The Han troops on the city wall really didn't know how long they could hold out, they just held on numbly. Fight the enemy! Fight the enemy! If you can't kill the enemy, let the enemy kill yourself! No one remembers how many enemies they killed, because most of them were numb to the point of killing. What's the use of killing more enemies, the next one to die may be yourself. What can you do if you die on the battlefield, as long as you belong to the winning side.
Whenever Han Jun had a chance to breathe, he couldn't help but look at the young man not far away. Seeing the person who fought side by side with him added countless strength to his tired body. It's worth it for the big husband to be able to fight to the death side by side with this person!
Prince Ran once again raised the long sword in his hand and once again slashed a Qin soldier who rushed to the front. In Qin Jun's unwillingness, the prince drew his sword expressionlessly and stabbed at the next opponent.
He repeated this action countless times, and killing people has long become the most mechanical and boring thing. Zhu Hai brandished his mace, and constantly burst the brains of the Qin army who rushed up. Occasionally, the brave Qin army held Changge and tried to sweep down the prince, and at this time there was always a man dressed in black or crossbow arrows or throwing knives, and the future person would be beheaded at his feet.
At the most critical moment of the wild king, the prince sent all his personal guards to the city, and only the guards sent by Zhu Hai and King Han were around. Even so, the head of the Wild King Castle was almost lost.
At the most dangerous moment, the Qin army occupied nearly half of the north gate. If it weren't for the arrival of Prince Ziran's personal guards, the north gate would have been lost long ago. And one of the costs paid to defend the north gate was that half of the prince's guards were killed in battle.
Just like now, the guards who followed him to defend the north gate were the only ones left, Zhu Hai. If it weren't for the master sent by his father, Prince Ran would have even suspected that he had died in battle.
Once again, the Qin army was driven down the city, and all the Han troops lost their strength almost instantly and sat down at the head of the city. After a moment's respite, the Han army had to reluctantly get up and clean up the city.
The two armies had lost so many dead that the city was almost full of corpses. It is not so much that the two armies are fighting for the city, but that the two armies are fighting on the pile of dead bodies!
After such a long period of continuous fighting, the Han army can be regarded as having figured out the rules of the Qin army. Although the Qin army has temporarily faded, it does not take a cup of tea, and a more fierce attack will come.
Throwing the corpses at the head of the city casually under the city, all the Korean soldiers sat down regardless of their image, breathing in the scorching air. It's good to be able to breathe, at least to prove that you're alive.
"Prince, why don't you go down and rest! Old Zhu Shoucheng is good! Zhu Hai looked at the panting prince, and couldn't bear to build yƬ.
After all, the prince is not a martial artist like himself, and the gap in body cannot be ignored. The crown prince was obviously gritting his teeth and struggling to support.
To be honest, Zhu Hai had always thought that the king and grandson would be delicate and frail and could not suffer. Unexpectedly, the prince was an anomaly, he could see blood and kill people. This is more like a martial artist like him. If it weren't for the huge identity gap between the two, Zhu Hai would have wanted to be brothers with Prince Ran.
Prince Ran took a few big breaths, and reluctantly said, "Don't waste your tongue." It's better to save your strength to kill the enemy! I'm not going to go down. ā
"But the prince, it's not me who is demoralizing. If you don't come to the reinforcements, the wild king won't be able to hold on. We can hold on for a while, but we can't hold on for a lifetime. ā
"Don't count on reinforcements. We already have no reinforcements. In today's battle, either you die or I die. By the time reinforcements arrived, the Wild King Castle had already been broken. We are on our own. ā
As if he was tired of saying so much in one breath, the prince rested for a while before he had the strength to continue: "We have no way out. In the past two days, the Qin army has been defeated repeatedly, and according to the practice of the Qin army, the city of Yewang must be slaughtered after it is broken. ā
"Jin Han! Jin Han! The prince smiled bitterly.
"The nations all say that I am the name of Jinhan, but they only say that I am the sharp weapons of Korea, but they ridicule and despise my Korean army. There is no life to be spared today, so I will take my life as the best name! ā
"Prince!" The soldiers who paid attention to the prince shouted in unison.
"All the soldiers obey orders, today's battle, fight to the death and do not retreat! If I die in battle, the captain will replace me, and if the captain dies, the marquis will take my place. The soldiers are dead in battle, and the young are strong! The young man died in battle, and the women were on! I want the whole world to know that there is no coward in my Korea, and I would rather die standing than live on my knees! ā
"It is better to die standing than to live on your knees!"
"Dahan is mighty!"
"Dahan is mighty!"
The roar of the Han army resounded at the head of Yewang City.
Hu Yang glanced at it lightly, without the slightest expression. Let's just go crazy for a while! When the city is broken, it is the time to pay for your life.
The rumbling war drums resounded throughout the four fields, and the last charge of the Qin army was imminent! Wild King, the city is about to be broken!
