Chapter 228: Border Smoke
Whew, the wind rolled up the yellow sand and flew all over the sky, and there were hundreds of people sitting sparsely on the ground in a small city, almost all of them were intact, wrapped in large and small bandages everywhere, and the blood stains on them were clearly visible.

"General Night, a few of us escort you to break through first, we don't have a few people left, and if the enemy launches another wave of attacks, the whole army will be annihilated, and then we won't be able to leave if we want to. The adjutant anxiously persuaded a white-robed general, Ye Guyu, who was sitting on the ground.
Ye Guyu slowly opened his eyes, got up and walked on the high ground, glanced at the soldiers in the audience, turned back to the adjutant and said, "The following are my brothers who were born and died, do you think I can abandon them?"
"Then let's retreat together, it's enough to hold on for so long. The adjutant looked a little excited.
"There is only one military order above, swear to defend Anchang City to the death. Even if you fight to the last drop of blood, you have to keep it!" Ye Guyu's eyes were sharp, and he looked directly at the adjutant.
The adjutant shook his head and sighed: "General, this military order is to send us to death! We have been guarding for ten days and ten nights, and we have fought from 10,000 people to only 600 now, but the reinforcements on the opposite side are constantly increasing, and the strength is increasing day by day, but what about us? Where are our reinforcements? General, the higher authorities regard us as abandoned pawns! If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about the more than 600 brothers who are still alive!"
Ye Guyu also sighed: "I can understand your feelings, but I have to think more about the hundreds of thousands of dawn people behind me." ā
As he spoke, Ye Guyu turned to look at the endless grassland behind him, "Behind us is a hometown that is more important than life, can you bear to let it be trampled on by the Turkic barbarians?"
Hearing this, the adjutant's heart moved, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword gradually strengthened.
"Report, the dust is flying ahead, and the Turkic cavalry must be attacking again. At this moment, the soldiers at the observation post outside the city rushed into the city to report.
When some of the wounded soldiers in the city heard this, there was a commotion.
"If we are either limb incomplete or physically exhausted, how can we fight this battle?"
"It's better to run away while the other party hasn't arrived yet. ā
......
"Shut up!" a loud voice came from the crowd just as the wails erupted.
The people were startled and turned their heads to see a man dressed as an ordinary soldier standing up from the crowd, his right arm wrapped in a bandage, and fresh blood oozing from excitement.
This is an ordinary member of the army, as if he just came to report a few months ago. Everyone was not impressed by him, only that he worked very hard during training, and he always rushed to the front to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
"Have you ever wondered what the Turks would do to your family if they invaded your house? When they see your virtuous wife, they will be lustful, and they will pull her up and they will *** and then she refuses, desperately struggling, this scene is seen by your elderly father, who picked up a firewood knife and rushed into the crowd, but was picked up and dropped by the Turkic soldiers, and then your father's hands fell to the ground. In the end, your wife will not only not escape the bad luck, but will also intensify it, and dozens of Turkic barbarians will take turns one after another until they are tortured to death. This is the final ending!"
The man was filled with righteous indignation, his whole body trembled faintly with anger, and then said: "I ask you, you are still not a man, if you are a man, you will pick up the weapon in your hand, not for anything else, only for the wife and children in your hometown, only for your parents in your hometown, take out the blood that a man should have, and show the dignity that a man should have!"
There was silence throughout the whole process, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the man, but their eyes had gradually changed.
Suddenly, there was crisp applause from above.
Everyone followed the applause and looked, only to see Ye Guyu looking at the man, his palms slamming together.
"Well said! Who are we? We are seven-foot men, all of us with iron bones, and we are afraid of these Turkic barbarians? Are you afraid of them? Their hundreds of thousands of troops have fought with 10,000 of us for ten days and ten nights, and we have not let them take half a step, do you think they are worth our fear?"
"What are the wives and children at home sending us to the frontier and to the battlefield? Don't they want us to be at home and share our family? Who doesn't want their relatives to be by their side all the time?"
"They believe in us, and believe that we will be able to defend our family and country for the sake of the people! Can we let them down? Can we?"
The voice of Ye Guyu echoed in the small city, constantly impacting everyone's eardrums for a long time.
"Yes, if you fight, you will die!"
"Don't lose by killing one, pull down two net profits, fight!"
"Let's go, give these Turkic barbarians some color and see!"
Seeing that the passion had returned to everyone's hearts, Ye Guyu was very pleased, he looked at the man just now, and asked, "What's your name?"
The man met Ye Guyu's gaze, his eyes were clear and firm, and he replied, "My name is Bai Lehuo." ā
"Okay, Bai Lehuo, I will now promote you to centurion and be the front-line commander of the battlefield. ā
"General Xie. After speaking, Bai Lehuo retreated to prepare for battle.
There were still a few minutes before the Turkic cavalry arrived in the small city, and everyone was preparing for the battle in an orderly manner, and at this moment everyone was excited and calm, because they knew that this would be their last battle.
Someone knelt down in the distance behind him, kowtowed three times, and said goodbye to his family.
Someone took out the letter from the warmth of his chest that he didn't know how many times he had read.
Someone took from his waist the sachet that his wife had prayed for before leaving.
......
At this moment, Bai Lehuo's mood did not fluctuate, he slowly wrapped a few more bandages around his injured hand and tied a dead knot, firmly fixing it. Then sharpen the saber against the whetstone.
Father, Ah Xiu, I'm going to be with you in a while, you miss me, right? I miss you very much. Don't worry, before I come, I will bring a few more Turkic barbarians to the burial.
The sound of horses' hooves outside the city is getting closer and closer, and the rumbling sound of fighting has reached the front of the city.
Ye Guyu picked up his sword, stepped on the war horse, and the breeze struck, raising his blood-stained white robe and shaking in the air.
"Brothers, the time has come to serve the motherland, may our blood be sprinkled all over the earth and coexist with this land!"
The shouts of "killing !!" resounded in the army, which were uniform and magnificent.
Hundreds of people lined up and rushed to the city gates in order.
With a bang, the city gate fell, and the Turkic cavalry fought in.
Bai Lehuo rushed to the front of the team, there was only anger in his eyes, no sadness!
Immediately there was a river of blood at the gates of the city.
