Chapter 67 Dark Clouds Overcome the City(1/2)
"Report, Commander!"
"In this battle, 840 of our soldiers were killed and 170 were seriously injured!"
The excitement on Xiliang Captain's face faded, and even his tone became a little lower.
"Bury the fallen men on the spot!"
Hua Xiong's tone was a little heavy, and a touch of sadness flashed across his sallow face.
Although he has a reckless and violent temperament, he regards his subordinates as brothers and sisters.
"promise!"
After the captain responded, he turned around and strode away.
…………
Daqin, Liangzhou.
Ten thousand Dali Lion Cavalry drove toward Crouching Tiger City with stern expressions.
Lion cavalry are heavy cavalry. They are all dressed in red heavy cavalry, holding red heavy axes, and sitting on a fiery red war horse.
They are the elite of the elite, and every member has an innate level of cultivation.
Behind this elite heavy cavalry were two hundred thousand ordinary Da Li sergeants like a tide.
This huge team basically represents all the military power in the southern part of Dali.
"Commander, shall we attack the city directly?"
In front of the lion cavalry team, a young general wearing blood-colored armor asked in a deep voice the silent commander Tian Xiao beside him.
Tian Xiao is a member of the Dali Royal Family, and is also the designated next leader of the Lion Cavalry, Tian Heng, the Furious Lion King.
This young man, who is under thirty-five years old, carries the honor of the Dali Royal Family.
He commanded his troops well, and while guarding the Wolf's Mouth, he repelled attacks from barbarians from outside the territory several times.
His martial arts training is also impressive, and he entered the realm of Grandmaster two years ago.
However, in order to hide his strength, Da Li did not make the news of his becoming a master known to the public.
"Use the power of thunder to quickly destroy all the resisting armies of Great Qin!"
Tian Xiao's face was determined, and his tone gave people a feeling of irreversibility.
In his opinion, the reason why Chen Rui was defeated was entirely because he wasted a lot of time under Crouching Tiger City.
This gave Da Qin, a slow-responsive giant, a chance to deal with him calmly.
"promise!"
The young general who asked the question looked excited. This battle was his first battle.
Every Dali man attaches great importance to his first battle, as they believe that it is directly related to his future destiny.
…………
Liangzhou, Crouching Tiger City.
In the heavily guarded governor's mansion, Wu Yunzhao, with a solemn look on his face, sat upright.
Sitting next to him were his cousin Wu Tianxi, who was the deputy commander of Fengming at the time, and Fan Yu who was Liangzhou's special commander.
Although Hua Xiong was transferred, Fan Yu's position Qin Yu did not move.
"Tell me about it!"
"Should we hold on and wait for reinforcements, or should we go out of the city and force the enemy back!"
The handsome-looking Wu Yunzhao frowned and spoke.
It was impossible for Dali's huge army to cover up their tracks, so as soon as they entered Liangzhou, they were detected by Wu Yunzhao.
"Brother, give me 10,000 soldiers and horses, and I will definitely be able to repel them!"
As soon as Wu Yunzhao finished speaking, Wu Tianxi, a big mountain cannon, stood up.
In the eyes of a reckless man like him who only has muscles in his head.
Defend the city!?
It is impossible to defend the city!
No matter how powerful the enemy is, these mountain artillerymen still dare to draw their swords.
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Wu Yunzhao's handsome face.
He did not pay attention to Wu Tianxi, but turned his attention to Fan Yu.
Compared to Wu Tianxi, that reckless man, Wu Yunzhao is still very sober.
"Hold Crouching Tiger City and send people for help at the same time!"
Fan Yu's face was solemn and his tone was extremely solemn.
The Dali army that attacked this time numbered 200,000.
It is said that the Dali Lion Cavalry was also involved, which had to make Fan Yu extremely cautious.
After hearing Fan Yu's answer, a look of contemplation flashed across Wu Yunzhao's face.
After pondering for a long time, he spoke slowly: "The matter of asking for help will be handled by Mr. Fan."
"I am responsible for defending the city alone."
He was confident that relying on Crouching Tiger City, he could firmly block the Dali army here.
"promise!"
Wu Tianxi and Fan Yu stood up at the same time and saluted Wu Yunzhao.
…………
Three hours later.
Dali's huge southbound army had already marched to the foot of Crouching Tiger City.
Tian Xiao, who was dressed in military uniform and looked brave, looked at the Crouching Tiger City coldly, like a giant beast.
"The whole army obeys the order and attacks the city!"
He drew out the sword from his waist and sternly ordered his troops to attack the city.
Chen Rui, a common man, would make mistakes that I, Tian Xiao, would not make!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Amidst the dull sound of war drums, tens of thousands of Dali soldiers, led by their generals, began to overrun the city.
"Roar!"
Amid the roars of the sergeants, groups of soldiers began to climb up the Crouching Tiger City wall using ladders.
At the same time, on the Crouching Tiger City Wall.
Wu Tianxi, who was tall and burly, shouted loudly.
"Boys, drive them down here!"
On top of Crouching Tiger City, besides him, there were 30,000 elite Fengming soldiers.
"promise!"
After agreeing in unison, Sergeant Fengming each held a sharp weapon and squatted on the pass of the city wall.
"Kill!"
A large number of soldiers immediately jumped in from the pass of the city wall.
They were armed with spears and had no other protection except a simple leather armor.
"Pfft!"
Sergeant Dali, who had just climbed up to the top of the city, fell directly to the sword and ax of Sergeant Fengming before he could take a breath.
Sergeant Fengming, who was dressed in heavy armor and holding a giant axe, was like a supervisor, waiting for Sergeant Dali to climb to the top of the city to die.
When Sergeant Feng Ming dealt with such an ordinary army, it was as if he was unparalleled.
In just a few moments, thousands of corpses of Dali soldiers were thrown out of Crouching Tiger City.
"Commander, let me go!"
Tian Hao, with an excited look on his face, asked for a fight in a deep voice.
This battle is his first battle. If he is the first to break through the city, then his future will be smooth sailing.
"If you can't do anything, just retreat!"
Tian Xiao, who had a stern look on his face, nodded slightly and then gave instructions.
This Tian Hao is his nephew and a junior whom he is more optimistic about.
