C318 (1/2)
The Han army guarding the city constantly released arrows, attempting to stop the advance of Wu Huan's soldiers. Unfortunately, there were even more Wuhuan cavalry s who rode their horses over to the city and shot powerful Arrows s at the city walls. These Wuhuan cavalry s were accurate and ruthless, quickly suppressing the Han archer s to the point that they couldn't even lift their heads. On the city wall, the Han army had no choice but to hide behind the battlements and watch as Wu Huan brazenly piled up the earth bag.
Over ten thousand of Wu Huan's soldiers moved back and forth, continuously moving the earth bag. Four hours later, the path that was formed by the earth bag was finally formed. In order to pave this path, the Setting Sun Plains had to pay a heavy price. Many Urushion's corpses were also piled within the earth bag.
As the walls of the Tulang City were not that high, the slope of the earth bag that Wu Huan's soldiers had piled up was not steep, and the back of the earth bag was also quite wide, allowing six or seven of Wu Huan's soldiers to walk side by side every time. It would not be easy to hold such a wide ramp.
”Warriors of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, it's your turn to show off your skills.” Qiu Liju turned around and looked at the leader of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, Wu Yan, and said angrily: ”Now it's up to you guys. Let the cowardly Chinese people see how our Ta Wu Hu tribe cut off their heads.”
Every time it came to the time to focus on health, the people fighting in the front would always be the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, this had already become Qiu Liju's rule. The leader of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, Wu Yan, was also a bold and unrestrained Wu Huan man. When Qiu Liju said those words, he immediately felt that he was an undefeatable hero of the prairie. Warriors of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, take your long knife and chop off the head of the Chinese. ”
”Ao Yi...”
The ten thousand plus pagoda-like Urushion jumped off their horses and started shouting like ghosts. Raising the long knife in their hands, their ferocious faces looked like ghouls as they rushed up the slope that was formed by the earth bag and rushed towards Tulang City.
”Come on, you savage bastards!” Gongsun Zan raised the spear in his hand, and personally blocked Urushion's slope. As he commanded the defending troops to destroy the slope, he also ordered the archer to shoot at the incoming Urushion.
Facing the swarming Urushion, Gongsun Zan tightened his grip on the spear in his hand, and lightly exhaled without the slightest trace of nervousness. Behind him were his more than three thousand followers. All of them held long knife s in their hands, waiting for the opportunity to strike.
Beside Gongsun Zan stood his two subordinates, Gongsun Yue and Gongsun Fan. They clearly knew that this was their last moment, where their eyes were filled with ice-cold killing intent and the long knife in their hands seemed to be covered in a layer of frost.
”Kill …”
In the midst of the world-shaking battle cries, Gongsun Zan and his three thousand men bravely moved forward, the long knife in their hands raised up high, some of them blocked Urushion's blade, some slashed towards Urushion's body, and some directly chopped towards Urushion's head.
These White Horse Yiping were all cavalry, but today they were the same as the Urushion, jumping off their horses to join the battle. They were the most elite warriors under Gongsun Zan's command, if Urushion wanted to break through their ambush from this slope, he would probably not be able to do anything.
Facing the swarming army of Wu Huan, the three thousand White Horse Yiping s did not need to do anything to stop them, nor did they need any sort of formation. All they needed to do was continuously slash the long knife forward. No matter how strong the Urushion was, in front of the sharp long knife, they could only scream as they fell onto the ground.
Gongsun Zan was even more courageous as he stabbed the spear in his hand again and again, just like how he would normally practice assassination. He even picked up Urushion's corpse and threw it down the slope ruthlessly, smashing down all of the Wu Huan's soldiers who were climbing upwards.
Gongsun Yue was even more ferocious, the long knife in his hands had cut off Urushion's neck, and heads after heads rolled down along the slope, intimidating the fleeing Wu Huan soldiers. Only now did they realise that they had met someone even more desperate than them.
However, under Qiu Liju's supervision, no soldier Wu Huan dared to retreat. Even though they knew that they were going to die and that they were going to lose their lives, they still climbed up one after another. As the battle raged on, blood continued to flow down the slope, wetting it completely. Many of Wu Huan's soldiers had slipped and fallen on the ground.
As if they had gone mad, the Urushion did not care about his life at all as he desperately rushed up. Facing the Han army that was several times stronger than himself, they did not fear at all.
As time passed, the Urushion's attack power was gradually weakening, and the number of soldiers waiting for him to climb up was also gradually decreasing. The seemingly crowded army of Wu Huan had now completely dispersed. The strange thing was that the Urushion did not seem to have any plans to increase their numbers. Standing below the city walls, Wu Huan looked up at the city walls.
On the other hand, the leader of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, Wu Yan, was looking more and more gloomy. Although he admired his soldiers' ferocity, he didn't want his soldiers to risk their lives for someone else. He looked at Qiu Liju and said angrily: ”Master, the Chinese defense is very fierce, we are courting death!”
