Chapter 850, live up to the prestige!
Zhongzhou. The southern gate of the Zephyr Empire.
"Zhongzhou Chronicles" contains: Zhongzhou is broken, and the west wind is dead. This shows how important the geographical location of Zhongzhou City is.
At this time, the city of Zhongzhou was surrounded by water, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Peacock Dynasty Chen took Zhongzhou directly, and it was bound to bring this important city into the naan.
Flag hunting in Zhongzhou City, iron armor. The 190,000-strong army was divided into four gates, and the eyes of each soldier were full of exhaustion and despair, and their faces were full of expressions of death.
Above the city tower, Marshal Xu Da's face was gloomy, and he looked coldly at the Mauryan army that was about to attack again.
"Win Boyan is too deceitful." Xu Da's fist slammed into the city wall and shouted angrily. "Today is the sixth attack. Did he really think that his peacock soldiers were omnipotent heavenly soldiers? ”
The walls were covered with the blood of soldiers on both sides. The dark red blood gathered together and then solidified in the tower, making the entire city wall look extremely dark and cold, and before you could get close, you could smell a disgusting bloody breath.
At the feet of the Zephyr soldiers, there were still many corpses that had not had time to move out. This is a legacy of the previous five wars today.
The Mauryan Empire has carried out five attacks today, and each time a large number of corpses will be discarded and landed on the wall. Of course, it will also harvest more of the heads of the Zephyr Empire.
At the beginning, the logistics troops on the west side would rush up during the break in the big battle and drag down the bodies of the dead or wounded, bury or treat them, and after all, they could not be left on it and become a mountain of corpses.
It's just that as the Mauryan Empire's attack became more and more intense, the pace of the attack became faster and faster, and there was no time to even bury the corpses and treat the wounded.
One wave has not yet subsided, and another wave has invaded.
Layer upon layer, like a big wave crashing on the shore, never dying.
"It seems that Ying Boyan is bound to win today----- Zhongzhou City has held on for a long time, I'm afraid he has already lost his patience----" General Liu Zhongyan said with a solemn expression.
"Why did he think he would be able to conquer Zhongzhou today? Could it be that when these brothers are paper paste? Flame General Wang Kai sneered. The soldiers of the Mauryan Empire attacked five times today, and he led the crowd to resist five times. It is precisely because of the courage of this fire general that the soldiers of the whole city are working hard to drive those peacock soldiers who are not afraid of death off the city tower again and again, and protect the city tower again and again.
Wang Kaizhi once served as the city lord of Zhongzhou City, so when he heard someone say that Ying Boyan would take Zhongzhou today, he was furious and immediately fought back.
Most of his descendants are in Zhongzhou City, if he is broken by Ying Boyan, how can he have a foothold in the future?
Of course, if the city of Zhongzhou is broken, the civilian, military officials and generals present will no longer have a foothold.
"The peacock soldiers are indeed fierce, and they can't be broken for a long time, so they are holding back a lot of strength in their hearts today----- everyone, you have to find a way to curb the offensive---- otherwise, I'm afraid it will be dangerous in Zhongzhou today." Overseer Li Si spoke up.
------
Xu Da looked around and sighed in his heart.
Even the generals know that Zhongzhou is dangerous, and the soldiers are afraid that they are even more hopeless about defending the city, right?
The reason why they are still able to hold on now is because the generals above are still holding on, because he Xu Da is still holding on. It was completely supported by the spirit of blood and the duty of a soldier, but the confidence of victory had disappeared.
There's just death!
"Yan Xiangma-----" Xu Da suddenly shouted loudly.
"Yes." The young general in a heavy helmet walked out from behind the crowd, bowed to Xu Da, and said, "General, are you looking for me?" ”
"Is there a way to retreat?"
"General, what I can say and what I can do, I have already said and done-----" Yan Xiangma raised his head and looked at Xu Da, and said with a wry smile: "It's just that you don't listen to the young general." ”
Of course, Xu Da knew that Yan Xiangma said and did it, but he didn't do what he said to himself, but what he said and did to the old man who controlled the overall situation behind the scenes.
Of course, he couldn't say that in public. It is not possible to expose the secret that the old man is still alive.
"What if I let you say it again? Tell me about your high arguments in front of the generals-----"
"Surrender and sacrifice the city." Yan Xiangma said simply and simply.
"Presumptuous!"
"Yan Xiangma, this is your strategy to retreat from the enemy? You're not afraid of insulting your Yan ancestors? ”
"Yan Xiangma, ashamed to be in the company of a cowardly villain like you---- Chen swears not to retreat or surrender----"
-----
"Yan Xiangma----" Xu Da was not angry but mighty. "Persuade you to surrender before the battle, are you guilty?"
"The young general is guilty." Yan Xiangma raised his head, his handsome face was full of sadness and heartache, and he pointed to the countless mutilated corpses under his feet and said: "However, if I don't say so, I'm afraid that more Zephyr soldiers will be filled into this war----- this war is like a huge meat grinding machine, and the Zephyr soldiers on the city wall are like livestock about to be sent into the machine to be filled----"
"It's all a living life with a family and a mouth, and it's not worth it to ----lose your life for an unrealistic hope and a city that is difficult to hold. I don't think it's worth it, what are they for? This world is not ---- theirs. This middle state is not their middle state. ”
Listening to Yan Xiangma's words, the surrounding soldiers looked over one after another. This remark is only a few words of nagging when they secretly meet and drink. "The sky is falling, there is a high top", "The world is not Lao Tzu's world, Lao Tzu guards a ball", "Why don't those royal relatives in Tiandu City come to defend the city"-----
However, this was the first time that a high-ranking general had said these words in front of them.
This kind of words that pierce them in the heart.
This made them both surprised and frightened.
Is this going to lose your head?
"Yan Xiangma-----" Xu Da stared at Yan Xiangma with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dead man. "So, you think, everyone's sacrifice is meaningless? Is everyone's insistence stupid? You, me, the generals present, and the brothers who have died and are about to be sacrificed---- all of them are idiots with low IQs? ”
"When someone pushes us, we fall, and when someone lifts a knife, we kneel. In that case, where is the dignity of the Zephyr Empire? What's the backbone? Can such a country ---- be able to protect its people to live and work in peace and contentment for thousands of years? Can such an empire survive in such a world ---- the jungle? If every soldier is like this, can this Zephyr Empire ----- still be able to establish a country for a thousand years without being defeated? ”
"Yan Xiangma, you tell me-----" Xu Da's eyes were blood-red, and his voice was low as if he was roaring. "Everyone is a stupid joke in your eyes, isn't it?"
"No!" Yan Xiangma looked at Xu Da's eyes. There is no weakness of heart, no escape. Even, his eyes looked more fierce and sharp, full of aggression. It's like a ---- mad little leopard. "It is precisely because we have such a group of soldiers who have sacrificed fearlessly, and it is precisely because we have marshals like generals that I feel that ----- is not worth it. Because, the blood of these people cannot be shed in vain, the lives of these people cannot be harvested in vain, these people are not only ---- the West Wind Empire, but also the spirit and backbone of the entire human race. ”
"We are not only the enemy of the Mauryan Empire now, but there are also more powerful and murderous enemies coming---- it is a pity that you have wasted your lives here. Cannibalism, even if it is victorious, what can it do? How do you stand up to a more formidable foe? ”
"I know the reason why General Xu Da asked me to answer this question in public, and I also know that General Xu Da has always disliked me, a general from a wealthy family---- but I still stood up and answered this question, and I also knew that from now on, I, Yan Xiangma, will become a villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Whether it's the leisurely mouth of this world, or the brilliant pen of those who read, I am a ridiculous and despicable fellow. ”
"However, for the sake of the coming war---- please General Xu Da save some more good seeds for mankind." Yan Xiangma bowed deeply to Xu Da again, and said in a sonorous voice: "The young general will not regret his death." ”
Xu Da's eyes stared at Yan Xiangma without blinking, staring at this child of the family who didn't like it before and didn't like it now, staring at this young general who couldn't understand it before and now it can't understand it even more.
Is this Yan Xiangma---- is really the rumored Yan Xiangma who doesn't learn skills?
This Yan Xiangma is really a Yan Xiangma who climbed to the sky one step by relying on the background of the gate valve?
This Yan Xiangma, is also really the Yan Xiangma who knew that he was uneasy and kind, but stood up without hesitation, and did not hesitate to make himself a soldier and bear the shame of being infamous through the ages?
This Tsubame Soma----
Long.
Long.
Xu Da's eyes gradually softened, and his expression was also moved, and the powerful hand was raised high, but it fell gently.
Xu Da patted Yan Xiangma on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "General Yan --- live up to the reputation of the "Imperial Show". ”
This veteran of the battlefield, who has relied on victory after victory for decades and accumulated military merits to this point, feels that he likes this young general with fine skin and tender flesh and extraordinary background.
At this moment, the entire Zhongzhou City suddenly shook violently.
Rumble------
The earth shook and the mountains shook, and the heavens and the earth seemed to explode.
High in the sky, large clouds suddenly burned, as if they were about to burn the whole sky.
Everyone looked up and looked at this with incredulous faces.
"This is ----," someone exclaimed.
"Demon invasion." Yan Xiangma's face was as dead as ashes, and he muttered.
