If it weren't for this sudden blow, they should have been at home at this time, have a hot meal, and then listen to their daughter-in-law's words.
Although life is poor, simple, and closed, at least one can live a numb and fulfilling day.
But after the sudden change, they not only lost their family members, but also lost all their goals to live. The only thing that makes them no longer numb is the hatred in their chests!
When they were tied up before, they already knew who the enemy was. Seeing Xie Linlang and his party heading north, they guessed who they were going to beat.
It is better to join the army than to live mediocrity and escape. Let them pay their debts with blood!
So without waiting for Xie Linlang to respond, the man holding the silver knelt down and took a few steps forward, and put the silver in Xie Linlang's hands again.
"We thank you for your pity, but we want to go to the battlefield, please do your best!"
He said this, and the people behind him also shouted, "Please do your best!"
Xie Linlang hesitated.
Behind her is the body that was just buried. The people in front of her are the only survivors of the village. Although she is cold enough, she still wants to leave some incense for the village. After all, the war is ruthless.
But these people begged hard. They were so courageous, and the soldiers around Xie Linlang were also helping to persuade them. Xie Linlang was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, clothes and weapons will be distributed when you enter the barracks. Now you all go home, take your most precious things, and bring some dry food. It can't be too much, and it can't interfere with the journey. After a quarter of an hour, we will gather at the entrance of the village!"
Xie Linlang still gave them time to say goodbye to the past, and then took them away.
The enemy is more cunning than she imagined, not only sneaking in to set up traps to block the road, but also deliberately revealing her identity to make the soldiers uneasy.
It can be seen that the situation on the front line is estimated to be worse, and because she has been hurrying on the road, she did not receive the news in time, so she did not know.
She guessed right, knowing that the general of Da Qin was rushing in this direction, Tian Yuan would not wait for the general to bring people over and be beaten passively.
While they sent people to try to intercept them, they launched an attack last night!
80,000 cavalrymen swarmed to fight against Daqin's 150,000 defenders. Even though the number was twice as many as the opponent's, and even if they were covered by the city wall, the battle was still a heavy loss.
The cavalry of Tianyuan Kingdom have been fighting every day in recent years. Their cooperation with their horses and their comrades-in-arms, including the skills they have trained in so many battles, are fierce! No matter which point, it is not comparable to the soldiers of Da Qin.
If it wasn't for the protection of the city wall and the advantage of the high ground, I'm afraid that last night, the Qin army would have been breached!
Although it has not been breached at the moment, the situation is not optimistic.
After the Tianyuan Army retreated, the generals stationed there counted the casualties and found that only a few hundred people died on the other side, but there were thousands of casualties on their side... This difference in strength is too big!
It is reported that Tianyuan's main army is 120,000 people, and the other 40,000 people are estimated to be gathering. If 120,000 people launch a general attack at the same time, how can they defend here
The only consolation is that it is said that in this reinforcement, not only Xie Guoshi will come, but she will also bring the secret weapon she used in the water battle... But he is worried that the enemy also has secret weapons.
*
For the next few days, Tianyuan Kingdom would launch an attack every day, and every time it was a general attack.
After the first combat strength assessment, they already had a general understanding of the strength of the Qin army, so they wanted to break through the frontier defense before the arrival of the Daqin reinforcements. As long as the city wall was broken, the Qin army would not be a threat to them. !
The garrisoned general Xiao Chengjun was also an excellent general. He quickly changed his strategy and stopped fighting. Instead, he focused on defending. He gave full play to the advantage of a large number of people, took turns defending, and gave the soldiers as much time to rest as possible. Wait for reinforcements to arrive.
On the fourth day, Tianyuan Kingdom was obviously impatient. This time, their reinforcements arrived first, so the number of people who launched the general attack increased from 80,000 to 100,000!
Under their desperate attack, the city wall was torn down by their horses!
With the sound of the wall knocking down, the battle suddenly became more intense!
Countless enemies swarmed in, causing Xiao Chengjun's complexion to change!
"The first line and the second line make up for it! We must guard the gap and don't let them break in!"
"Yes!" In the chaos, the two legions rushed over and tried their best to fill the gap.
From the gap, the enemy kept breaking in, the enemy's bravery also aroused the blood of the Qin army, and both sides were red-eyed!
For Tianyuan Kingdom, it was difficult to open the gap before the Qin army reinforcements arrived, and this opportunity must not be missed!
So this time, they didn't just give up, but did their best to keep going!
For the Qin army, the city wall is their biggest shield, even if they die, they must not fall!
A strong smell of blood permeated the battlefield. Seeing that the enemy's offensive was fierce and the gap was widening, Xiao Chengjun's master sighed and came up with a somewhat cruel method...
"General, the gap is not big. Why don't the soldiers carry sandbags and go to the pit while fighting?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chengjun frowned and said, "With sandbags on your back, your mobility will be weakened. Isn't that sending them to death!"
The teacher shook his head and said in a heavy and cruel voice.
"Explain the situation to the soldiers and ask them to fill the gap. Once they die, their bodies will be bundled with sandbags, which can also form a corpse wall. At least it will make it easier for the other party to come over, and we will have a chance to breathe."
When Xiao Chengjun heard this, he felt a chill down his spine!
He pulled out his long knife and said with scarlet eyes, "On the battlefield, what we are fighting for is momentum! If I build a wall with corpses, how can my soldiers have the courage to fight over the 'wall'?!
The order goes on, the third lineup will make up for it! In any case, never let the enemy take a step beyond the thunderous pool! "
With his order, more people rushed to the gap.
The previous few defensive battles have been hard enough, but this is undoubtedly the most tragic one!
Countless people fell under the gap, and there were people on both sides. At this time, people could no longer think about why they were fighting. They only knew, kill! Kill all the enemies to survive!
But even though the Qin army was brave, the strength gap between the two sides was there, just as the gap was getting wider and wider, the war horn of "woo-woo-" sounded!
Xiao Chengjun, who was commanding the battlefield, turned his head and saw a cloud of dust behind him!
Xie Linlang came with reinforcements! The reinforcements shouted and shouted, and their voices were like a shot in the arm, cheering up all the Qin troops who were fighting to the death!
