Chapter 59: The General is on Top and I am Down (59)
The siege after the rest was menacing, and this time the Turkic soldiers did not retreat, fighting from day to night, and from night to new day, day and night, without sleep, without dying.
The Turkic side knew very well that if the Turkic royal court was not captured, reinforcements from the Ling State would come.
Yun Dui's side also knew very well that if he insisted on holding on for a few more days, Ling Guo's reinforcements would come.
After all, Yelu Tucha was also a battle-hardened general, although he lost some of his troops at the beginning due to the endless tricks of the clouds, but when the Turkic army adapted, the original number of the two sides was very different, and it was very difficult to get a bargain from him.
These days, the city is still defended, but it is only relying on the ratio of battle losses to one, and if it is consumed to this extent, the army on Ling Guo's side will definitely be defeated.
Because they only have 20,000 men left.
Yun Du didn't even remember how many days she had been fighting, and her hand wielding the "Ling Xin" sword was numb, and she only felt that when her eyes were closed and opened, it was day, and when her eyes were opened and closed, it was night, exhausted, and she relied on death.
The Turkic army also seems to see their untenably, like wolves that smell blood in the steppe, and when they find the opportunity, they do not stop skinning their prey and eating meat, which is both cruel and stoic.
Just when Twilight felt that she couldn't hold on, the walls of the Turkic court collapsed.
The Turkic soldiers turned on their horses and were about to crush all the pride of the Ling army with their iron hooves, and annihilate them all in the Turkic court, but they found that no matter how they coaxed, roared and threatened, the always obedient war horses did not buy it, and they did not rush forward by all means.
In the end, they had no choice but to give up, intending to rush directly into the city and encircle and suppress the remaining Ling soldiers.
There was almost no place to stand in the city, corpses were strewn all over the field, rivers of blood flowed, and the corpses of soldiers from both countries were piled up together, as if they were hell reappearing on earth.
Such a scene was long accustomed by the Turkic soldiers. The place where they used to pass was such a scene of mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, piles of bones, and ruined houses. The only difference is that this time, there are too many corpses of their own people, a crushing victory that has never been seen before.
But the next moment, Yelututsa, who was surrounded by Turkic soldiers and entered the city, realized that he was wrong.
It's still miserable, it's just not a miserable victory, it's a fiasco.
On the steppe, Ling's military flag fluttered high in the wind, and Ling's reinforcements arrived from all directions, encircling all the remaining Turkic troops.
They didn't go through several days of sleepless fighting, and at this moment they were full of energy and combat power, which ignited the hope of victory among the soldiers of Ling who were trapped in the Turkic royal court, and re-sprouted a strong fighting spirit!
Under the alliance of the inside and the outside, the Turkic army began to rout on all fronts.
Finally waiting for reinforcements, Twilight thrust her sword into the ground, barely holding on to her crumbling body.
The speed of reinforcements was actually fast enough, and Yun Dui knew that the normal distance from the border to the Turkic royal court, the detour from the snowy mountains not only caused huge casualties, but also could not outflank the remaining Turkic army on the terrain.
Originally, this battle should not have been fought so tragically, but she was injured and had no chance to recuperate, plus Gao Ping was executed by her own hands, which still affected morale.
Under the injury, although she did not show it, she was actually powerless on the battlefield, and the command in many places was not enough.
In this battle, Yun Dusk didn't expect a lot of things.
Just like she didn't expect that Ling Guo's reinforcements were the leader of the man who rode towards her on a war horse.
That person was not the general Lin Tingzhi, but Ling Junxuan.
At the moment when her consciousness was completely wiped out due to excessive exhaustion, Yun Dui, who was about to fall, was taken into Ling Junxuan's arms, and she finally closed her eyes with peace of mind.
