Chapter 270: Siege and Reinforcements
Western Front, Hewu Mountains.
At this time, the originally clear sky has become muddy due to the smoke and flames of war, and the magnificent Great Wall has been damaged.
The warriors were resting against the wall at this time, almost every one of them was wounded, and the bandages were red with blood.
I can't remember how many battles I had, how many people I killed, how many people died, the only thing I remember was that as long as someone attacked, they had to fight the enemy desperately.
Use a spear after shooting a bow and arrow, use a saber when the spear is broken, use a fist and brick after the saber is curled, and use the head and teeth if it doesn't work, no matter what means, as long as you kill the enemy, it is effective.
Leng Yan was also covered in injuries at this moment, in addition to the battle of ordinary soldiers, naturally there would be no shortage of fighting between martial artists.
The academy sects across the country supported many disciples, but this didn't play a role at all, this was a national war, and the Burning Sun Empire on the opposite side was also dispatched by the whole country.
Leng Yan propped up the city wall and looked into the distance with deep eyes.
"No news yet?" Leng Yan asked without looking back.
"General Hui, not yet." The training staff officer on the side replied in a low voice.
"Send another team to find it!" Leng Yan commanded with a hammer of his fist on the city wall.
"General... Several teams had already been dispatched, but not only had they not been found, but even those teams had not been heard from, which showed that the northwest direction was not safe at all, and his subordinates had the courage to beg the general to take back his order and not let the brothers die in vain. The training staff officer bowed and said.
Leng Yansheng turned his head to look at the training staff officer, and said with a cold gaze: "Isn't it a brother who stumped them out?" They also went to find out the enemy for the sake of the Empire. ”
"And let me tell you one more thing, Qianxue is here for people, and the people she is for are not small."
The training staff officer nodded his head to indicate that he understood.
"General, who will be sent next to pick it up?" The training staff officer asked.
Leng Yan sighed and looked at the west again.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "Go and call Zhang Liang from the 32nd Battalion of the Third Corps." ”
The training staff officer was ordered to go down, and after a while, Zhang Liang followed the training staff officer to the city wall.
"Subordinates, see generals." Zhang Liang shouted deeply at Leng Yan's back.
"Zhang Liang, let me ask you, are you afraid of death!" Leng Yan asked without looking back.
"Back to the general, his subordinates are afraid of death!" Zhang Lianglang replied.
"I'm scared! If I want you to die, are you afraid! Leng Yan slapped the city wall and shouted.
"General Hui, subordinates are not afraid!" Zhang Liang replied again.
"Let's go, take a team to the northwest direction, and the goal is to rescue the luthier." Leng Yan pointed to the northwest and commanded.
"What if it is not discovered or the luthier is dead?" Zhang Liang did not receive the order directly, but asked.
"If you and the pianist don't die, you mention the deputy commander of the Third Legion, but you don't bring back you and you don't die, and you don't die if you bring back the Third Legion, and you die as a training staff officer, and you will be posthumously awarded the martyr of protecting the country, and you will be buried under the soul monument of the town, and you will be worshiped by the army." Leng Yan said three rewards in a row.
"The subordinates will definitely live up to their mission!" Zhang Liang bowed deeply and turned to leave.
Half an hour later, a group of men and horses left Hewu Mountain on horseback and took the trail towards the northwest.
"I hope there will be good news to wear back this time, otherwise I'm really afraid that Dowling will blame." Leng Yan looked at the team in the distance condescendingly and said softly.
"General, who is this Dowling you are talking about? Could it be that he is a Taoist in the imperial capital? The training staff officer asked in a low voice.
"Yes and no, Dowling is a strange man." Leng Yan said with a smile.
The training staff officer looked at Leng Yan puzzled, since the general didn't want to say it, then he naturally didn't have a reason to ask.
………………
On a nameless mountain, soldiers of the Shenwu Empire wearing black armor were holding their way up the mountain, and bursts of melodious piano sounds continued to sound.
At the foot of the mountain was a dense crowd of red-armored Sun Empire soldiers, and the entire mountain had been surrounded.
"I hope the general won't send people again, if this group of brutes besieges and helps, no matter how many people come, it's useless." The leader of the squad said angrily.
"Sister-in-Chief, stop, they're back." Michikata walked over with his arms covered, blood oozing from the gaps in his fingers.
Qianxue let out a long breath, her forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, she looked at Dao Fang and asked softly, "Are you injured?" Is it serious? ”
Dao Fang shook his head and said: "It's nothing, it's just a skin injury, it's just that this group of people can't be killed at all, and what we lack most now is food." ”
There are about forty people in total, all of whom are the teams that came to find Qianxue and them, and they were deliberately put in by the Sun Empire to besiege and help.
"How long can we get food?" One of the squad leaders asked.
There are now four squad leaders here, so everything is up to the four of them to discuss.
As for Qianxue, the five of them are all pneumatic realm martial artists, and the reason why they came from Hewu Mountain is because to inquire about the military situation, because there is a valley here, which is said to be the grain and grass hoarding point of the Burning Sun Empire, and they are here to investigate.
After their investigation, it was confirmed that this was indeed one of the grain and grass hoarding points of the Burning Sun Empire, and the mission was completed and was discovered by the emperor when he was withdrawn, and he was forced to come here in desperation.
After going up the mountain, the Burning Sun Empire did not kill them all, but surrounded them, at first Qianxue they were relieved, until a few days later the arrival of the first rescue team, they knew the enemy's calculations.
In this way, one team after another was deliberately put in, and then began to besiege and send reinforcements, and now there are four teams trapped here.
"I just counted it, and whether it is grain, grass or medicine, it can only last for two more days." Squad Leader No. 2 replied.
"Looks like we'll have to make a decision." The first squad leader said with a cold gaze.
"I recommend reducing consumption and sticking to it." The third squad leader shook his head and said.
"Stick to what? Even if the general knew that we were here, he wouldn't be able to save us, and if the army didn't come, we would have to be trapped and die here. ”
"It's okay now, at least I have a full meal and the strength to fight, if I can't eat enough, I don't die of hunger and I don't have the strength to be pinched." The first squad leader immediately retorted.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was silent, they knew that in fact, what the first squad leader said was right, now they can still eat enough to fight the enemy to the death, but after a few days, they will only have to wait for death if they run out of food.
The fourth squad leader, who had not spoken, spoke slowly.
"Actually, we can try to sneak down the mountain with the help of night, as long as we can escape one and send the news here, I think the generals have a way to save us."
"The reason why we don't come now is because there is no accurate news, and our life and death are unknown now, so we can't rush to send troops, but as long as we pass the news back, the chance of being rescued may be greater, after all, as long as we can live, no one wants to die."
