Chapter 31: The War Resumes
"What the hell is going on here?"
When he just got up today, he heard a loud noise outside, which would not have happened in normal times.
And now the whole barracks, in a short quarter of an hour, are all ready, those Huns are quickly preparing food, many people are sitting there, with a black cloth, wiping their own weapons.
Li Mu was also quarreled with them early in the morning, and this was the first time that they lived like this.
"Soon the real showdown will begin. β
Qing looked at the scene outside expressionlessly, but there was still a trace of sadness in his eyes, this decisive battle must be extremely difficult, for the continuation of their race, they had to do this, take this city, so as to survive.
On the contrary, those who are enemies of them, in this situation, they can't give in, because behind them is the fertile plain, and the tens of thousands of ordinary people who live here, if they fail here, then the vitality of the Great Qin Empire will be regressed by at least 20 years, plus the two countries in the south are eyeing each other, and they will not let go of such a good opportunity at all.
"Do you want to take a look, we Huns, who have lived in this grassland for so many years, rely on us to be far better than those horses in the Great Qin Empire. β
In the distance, on the grassland, that is the real paradise of horses, where they can gallop uncontrollably, and where the best horses appear.
After these horses were captured, they were fed for four or five months, so that they knew some basic orders, and together with the soldiers, they were soon able to form a formidable cavalry.
"Look at your cavalry, of course. β
Listening to Qing's words, he was silent for a while, but when he thought of the Huns' cavalry team, which had made the Xuanwu army suffer for so many years, what kind of advantages did it have.
"Then come with me. β
Qing led him through the tent, the soldiers next to him were just a little strange, looking at the Qin man who came over, but that woman was more familiar to them, no one dared to talk more here, and consciously gave way to a way.
They soon came to the place where the horses were trained, and one after another horses were tied there, which is the most important thing in the grassland is the fat grass, although it is said that in this season, there is not much fresh grass, but for this war, the Huns have long begun to collect a large amount of grass to support these horses.
And those people in front of them, some of them rode on war horses, some of them stuck to the face of that horse, hugging like friends, they all regarded these as their most important friends, and they wanted to survive on the battlefield, which was also their greatest reliance.
Everyone fed the war horse well, and there was a group of horses at the front, and under the sun, the red horse was like a spirit in the flames, and the horse was unusually tall, and there was a few inverted scars on its body, which were all traces of war, indicating that he was a horse that had survived from the battlefield, and it was also the only one that was not tethered.
"I finally know why the Huns are so powerful in the steppe. β
Even if Li Mu is a layman, he feels amazed when he sees those horses, and the cavalry composed of these horses is indeed not something that ordinary troops can resist.
The Xuanwu army is better at defense, and they are most famous for those heavily armored armies, those people in the heavy armoured army, there is a thick layer of armor on their bodies, and ordinary swords can't break the armor on their bodies at all, let alone hurt them.
"I won't be able to teach you today, stay in my tent for a while, and when I come back, I'll take you somewhere. β
Qing also has its own tasks, you are still, and most of the Huns have begun to mobilize, they must also speed up the pace, and their brothers and sisters must rush over as soon as possible to stop the coming army, and provide enough time for those who attack head-on.
"I didn't expect so many people to come over this time, it seems that it is more dangerous for us to fight against those people in the army this time. β
Those old men also came here, and saw that the troops sent by the Huns could be said to account for half of the entire army, but he didn't expect that so many people would be sent in this battle, which also taught him to be very surprised.
He naturally made it clear how important a battle was to them, and if they lost, then I am afraid that they would no longer be able to live on this steppe, which would definitely cause a period of turmoil in the next ten years, and it would be a great blow to the Huns.
"If we don't live in danger one day, even if we come here, the worst result is just death, since we say that we have made our own promises, then we must fulfill them, are you still afraid?"
A person next to him held a roast leg of mutton, drank a glass of hot wine, sat directly on the ground and ate, after they came down from the Tianshan Mountain, they came here for today's moment, no one knows how many people they have left after this war, but they have never regretted it, since they are said to be high in the Huns, then since they also have to bear the corresponding responsibilities and obligations.
At this moment, if someone really repents, then it can only be spurned by everyone, and he can no longer raise his head in front of his friends, and he has given up his own responsibilities.
"The old man has lived for so long, what kind of thing can be like this, is he still afraid of such a thing. β
The old man also drank a pot of wine, pulled out the long knife in his hand, and ate a piece of meat in his mouth.
"Qing is here, and there is a Qin person behind him?"
The old man looked at the woman who came over, and saw a young man behind Qing He next to him, relying on the eyesight of these people, he naturally felt that this young man was not simple.
It seems that the internal force of the whole body has been sealed by Qing, and it seems that a teenager is also a very important person to Qing, and he will seal this piece with a special technique, seal his internal force, and then temper his body.
"Senior brothers, the next step is to rely on your help. β
Qing looked at those old men, it was hard to imagine that there were still junior brothers in this, Li Mu behind her, when she heard this, she glanced at it, and was also very puzzled, seeing Qing in front of her, her appearance was at most 30 years old, but she didn't expect that she would be so old when she got older, and said that after reaching the ranks of these masters, she could really rejuvenate herself, looking at the old men with red faces next to her, it was really unbelievable.
"Rest assured. β
The old man looked at the army that had been assembled, put the knife in his hand behind his back, and threw the mutton that had cut off half of the remaining meat to Li Mu in front
"Qing, who are you with this kid?"
This is also where these old men are confused, if it is really to lose the kid in front of him as an apprentice, then it can be regarded as a person in their vein, but if it is not said that this kid is an apprentice, since he exercises in this way, then it can be regarded as leaking the secret of the sect.
"Treat him as an apprentice to cultivate, after all, I'm old, if I really haven't taken that step, this can also be my heir, at least I can pass on my mantle. β
Qing said this lightly, at least she thinks so now, no matter whether this kid admits it or not, at least these two years will be by his side, after his careful teaching, polish his body to a certain extent, and in the future, relying on that domineering exercise, it can be the first in your rivers and lakes, and even step out of the legendary realm, it is possible, this is also her biggest wish, the original injury, has not completely recovered until now, there is only a small chance of being able to impact the innate realm, not to mention reaching the realm of the grandmaster, truly becoming a land immortal, and enjoying a life span of five hundred yearsγ
"That's how easy it is to talk, and when this matter is over, let's take him to the Heavenly Mountain." β
The old men got on their horses and glanced at Li Mu behind them, and then nodded.
Qing also handed over the things in his hand to Li Mu, and at the same time put a token in his waist in his hand, and solemnly instructed
"These things must be kept, the stakes are very high, I won't say much here, stay here with peace of mind these days. β
Qing also found a horse, and then led some Huns, and quickly joined the large army in front.
Li Mu looked at the quaint token, there was a tiger-like relief on it, although he didn't know how this thing was used, but he still put it all away.
......
After three hours, the Huns' army finally set out again, and this time, they would never take a step back, and they would definitely take the city in front of them.
The mighty army surrounded the city, and the Huns sent a lot of strong soldiers, pushed a lot of huge siege engines, and many people held a huge shield in front of them.
On the top of the wall, the men who defended the city had arrows in their hands until an instant.
In that sky, there was a huge dark cloud, which was made of the arrows, and under the obscuration of the sky, only the sound of tinkling could be heard
Anyone who was not protected by the giant shield was directly shot into a hornet's nest at that moment, and countless people lay in that pool of blood.
After that rain of arrows passed, I couldn't see the situation on the ground.
Fortunately, there are not many people on it, and with the strength of those archers, they can only shoot to the city, and only some unlucky people did not survive this wave.
From time to time, a vulture flew in the sky, and on this snowy field, these things did not have so much food to eat, and the battle in front of them was a rich dinner for them, standing in the sky and hovering, bringing an ominous omen to this war.
"Save some!"
One of the city defenders above, looking at the Huns who attacked, ordered the soldiers under his command to save those bows and arrows, after all, this is just the beginning, and then after those Huns completely began to attack the city, those bows and arrows can save his life at the most critical time.
When the Huns had completely transported the ladders, the fiercest of the war had just begun.
"Quick!"
The Huns below quickly crawled up the ladder, and the people above relied on those bows and arrows to stop them, and a few of the stronger people pushed the ladders down, and many people died each time, but those people never regretted it.
This war was like a meat grinder, and by now, there was a river of blood below, and many Huns had climbed the city walls and fought with the soldiers who defended the city.
Are the people who would fall from the city walls, without exception, these people are all stabbed wounds, and they fall directly from the height into the pile of dead people.
"No matter how many times I watched it, I was very sad in my heart. β
Qing looked at the people above, Qing did not stop those armies, but came here, because this is the real main battlefield, most of the soldiers of the Huns are gathered here, and many people have handed over their lives here for this moment in front of them.
She also has a very important task, that is, to protect Shan Yu behind her, after all, he is just an ordinary martial artist, and she has to ensure the enemy's decapitation action.
Those men stood on top of the city walls, and countless brothers attacked from above.
In the most core of the city, two people watched one bad news after another, and a young man next to him couldn't help but tremble in his hands.
"The situation is not encouraging. β
Mr. Qin looked at the information in his hand, all of them had just been sent, even those who had been sent over had a lot of knife wounds on their bodies, and many Huns at the East City Gate had already attacked the city gate.
And there are some masters among them, who have caused great harm to those in their hands, and there are already some situations that cannot be supported.
"Use it. β
The marshal said these three words, this is also their means of pressing the bottom of the box, the Xuanwu army did not occupy the city wall, but all concentrated in one place, with this method, to hit a surprise, and it is even possible to turn defeat into victory.
Coupled with the group of people from the Cold Ice Gate they gathered, although many of those people were injured, there were also many first-class masters, relying on the strength of their people, they would not lose.
"Hmm. β
Mr. Qin took out the jade pendant in his arms, and then Bai Qi also took out a jade pendant from his arms, and the jade pendants of the two of them were combined to be able to mobilize the entire Xuanwu army.
And the young man next to him was also stunned when he saw that jade pendant.
"Don't worry about the rest, you won't have an accident with me. β
Bai Qi looked at a man in front of him, although the five princes said that they had the strongest personality among the many princes, but it was not just child's play in front of him, not to mention him, even when he was experiencing the war, he was not much different from him, and they all grew up slowly.
Emperor Qin left him here, I am afraid he also wanted to give him a real baptism, they can bring out an emperor, but it is definitely not a weak and incompetent person, but a person who has really experienced the baptism of blood and fire, only such a person can bear the burden of a country.
"Uncle, nephews naturally don't worry about their own safety, those soldiers who died for the country, their identities are just some ordinary people, at this time, they can throw their heads and spill blood, let alone me. β
The fifth prince calmed down his mood and pressed back his trembling hands.
He came here to make military merits, only in this way can he get the throne that belongs to him, and isn't this thing in front of him the biggest military merit, as long as they can successfully defend and live here.
Then there will be no one who can stop his career.
"Good!"
Bai Qi patted him on the shoulder and asked him to go to the front line with him, the prince in front of him was not a weak ordinary person, but a martial artist who had been practicing martial arts since childhood.
"Lao Qin, our soldiers are divided into two ways, I will go to the city wall, boost morale, you bring people over as soon as possible." β
Bai Qi said a word, and left here with him.
At the same time, on the grassland that was far away for a hundred miles, the two armies met again, and it was also a big battle, and when the armies of the two sides saw each other, they rushed directly at each other, and the horses in the front, because of their strong inertia, directly turned into a pile of meat paste, and the rest of the people, the ones in the front, countless swords stabbed at their bodies.
The people behind continued to attack the front, if anyone looked at it in the sky now, the junction of the two sides was the most tragic place, that piece of land had been completely dyed blood red, the limbs of those soldiers could be seen everywhere, and even those in the front had already turned into a pile of flesh.
"Hmph, let those Qin people know that they know how powerful we are. β
Those old men did not rush out at the first time, but commanded a battle with some officers in the back, relying on the top of the military flag, can command the direction of an army very well, and now their task is not to enter the battlefield to kill the enemy, but to protect a middle-aged man in front of them, this is the most important thing, and it is also their main task.

Until now, I don't even have a recommendation position, maybe because there is no cover now, I made a cover today, but the editor doesn't go to work today, and now it can only be in a half-dead state.
It's just that I still insist on writing, and I hope to add more collections, and then put it on the shelves as soon as possible, at least more clicks, and preferably more tickets.
