Chapter 199: Life and Death in War

The largest city in the central part of Anling County is called Chunyang City.

Just like its name, the scenery here is beautiful like spring.

Chunyang City is located near the Ning River in the west, and is the most important river transport area in Anling County. It connects to Rou City in the north and Nancheng in the south. It has convenient transportation and developed commerce.

To the east of Chunyang City is Chunyang Mountain. Chunyang Mountain points to the north and south but does not extend too wide. It just like a transcendent city wall blocks everything from the east for the city, leaving the good weather with good weather west of Chunyang Mountain.

At this time, the sun was still bright in Chunyang City, but the people in the city could not feel any warmth, because the war was everywhere here, and the shouts of killing from the two north and south walls were like winter thunder, which made people feel cold in their hearts. The muffled sound of huge rocks hitting the city walls from time to time was more like drums hitting people's hearts, heavy and depressing.

The defenders on the city wall were already numb and could only shoot arrows or throw stones like mechanically in the roars of the officers. Even if the fear in their hearts was swallowing their hearts like a devil, they would not dare to take a step back, because in the three days when the enemy attacked, nearly a hundred fearful and cowardly fighters had been chopped off in public by Lord Chengmu's personal soldiers!

They did not die under the enemy's sword, but died first at the hands of their own people. Not only that, their families would be forced to be summoned to the city wall after their death. The old ones were already hard to get a knife, and the young ones would only scare them to urinate. But even so, the city mu did not let them take a step back. Anyone who was afraid of the former would be treated as deserters.

Deserters are death.

If you advance but not retreat, you will fight to the death.

There were already many corpses piled up outside the city, but there were not many corpses in the city.

The military towns outside the city are constantly changing, and flying swords circling in the air with unparalleled momentum. Whenever a city wall is suppressed by a volley of a trencher, the flying sword will fall down. It is fine if it is blocked by the flying sword in the city. Once it is not successfully intercepted, the flying sword will be like a sickle that harvests life, cutting through the city wall, leaving a bloody color...

There are also flames and thick smoke, rising by the wind, coming with the wind, covering the sky and the earth, seemingly eternal...

A desperate...

Three or four miles away from the city, the large army camp that attacked one side was built on a high ground. Before the camp, Chen Ziyi flew in the wind and led under the flag. Chen Jingzhi, wearing silver armor and red cloak, stood there expressionlessly, staring at the offensive and defensive game on the distant city walls without moving, and occasionally popped up the military orders, and then passed them down by the commander, and quickly fed back to the battlefield with flag words. The storm of the wind and clouds forced almost no way to live on the city walls.

But every time the city wall seemed to be on the verge of despair, a sense of vitality would emerge from the inside out, filling the gap, and taking away the lives of the soldiers after wave of siege...

"General!" A military man covered in dust and black charcoal rushed from the high ground, lifting his armor while running, revealing a dirty but very young face. He ran to Chen Jingzhi with some breath and saluted, and said, "General, Han Feng's soldiers are all too bad. Please replace them with my people. As long as the general promises me to guarantee that I will capture the South City Gate before dark. General, I am willing to issue a military order, I...!"

"Get back and take your soldiers," Chen Jingzhi didn't even look at the young army waiter, and spit out eight words lightly.

The young military waiter glanced at Chen Jingzhi's face and did not dare to say another word. He was full of anger but could only grit his teeth and turn around and run back to the battlefield.

A woman wearing a white dress and a white hat veil who was standing not far behind Chen Jingzhi slowly walked to Chen Jingzhi and stared at the battlefield like him and said, "Let our people go up, don't worry, Chunyang City is not Xigu Pass, you can enter the city by just a strong attack in the team," she turned her head and looked at Chen Jingzhi slowly, "If you lose too many people and waste too much time in this Chunyang City, it will be unfavorable to plan for his overall situation."

"It's not that Jingzhi doesn't want it, but that's not," Chen Jingzhi still stared at the battlefield, paused for a moment, and then turned his head to the woman in white after passing two military orders. "Three days ago, Jingzhi wanted to fight and win this big city quickly. However, he was careless and was ambushed by the city guards and lost a lot of people, and even half of the siege equipment. It can be said that Cangyan's army has the most defeat since the troops were sent. It's nothing. I think it's just as long as we fight steadily. After all, judging by Han Feng's intelligence, we have the advantage over Chunyang City defenders, regardless of the number of troops and the level of masters, but when the plots are launched, we will fail every time we make a contribution. It seems that the city guards have been extremely difficult, but in fact, it's not the case. The city guards are just luring us to open the trump cards one by one for him to show them."

"Since you know the other party's intentions and attack for three days, are you going to lure the other party to open the trump card first?" asked the woman in white.

"It is meaningless to encounter people of the level of defending in the city," Chen Jingzhi shook his head and looked at the battlefield in the distance as calm as water. "I just simply test the opponent's defense line. Even if the defending general in the city is good at defending, after all, it is too short to build the defense line of Chunyang City like a Sichuan City. It is not intact in terms of its thickness or integrity. As long as I increase the intensity of the offensive to a certain extent and rely on the advantage of military strength to rotate and attack, the defenders in the city will likely collapse first."

He lowered his voice as if he was talking to himself, "It is never the last straw that crushes the camel. The morale of the people in Chunyang City is unavailable. This battle cannot be said to be unfair, but everyone can do nothing for their own masters..."

The woman in white looked back at Chen Jingzhi again, "You mean the city guard is not the Mu Yan Zhengting in Chunyang City, but the one who repels Meng Zi'an... the Sichuan City guard Xing Jushu?!"

"Yan Zhengting has been guarding Chunyang City for the Yan family for decades, and is undoubtedly loyal. I believe that he dares to mobilize the whole city to fight a death battle, but just by this destructive line, I know that he is not a talented man in the city. If the person who actually controls the army on the opposite side is him, at most I will enter the city the next day," Chen Jingzhi shook his head, "But the situation is completely different now. Not only are the people who actually control the army in the city Xing Jushu, but there are also many experts, and even that person... So this battle does not allow us to be lucky. We must do our best and not make any major mistakes. Otherwise, if we don't say that the troops enter Rou City and Chuan City, it is this Chunyang City... we can't even enter."

As soon as they finished speaking, the woman in white and Chen Jingzhi looked north together. Their eyes passed over the entire Chunyang City and landed at the North City Wall. Because at the stall where the two of them were talking, a shocking explosion suddenly came from the direction of the distant north city wall. Then, a corner of the city wall was missing to the naked eye!!

"That's..." The woman in white voice was filled with murderous intent, "The Seventh-level Powerful!!!"

Chen Jingzhi was still expressionless, but he narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly, "Since that's the case, this battle... will be divided into life and death!!!"
