Cangmang City is filled with a strong smell of blood, and there are some torches stuck here and there on the southern city wall, giving the sky a hazy light.
Next to a damaged hole on the south side of the city wall, several exhausted soldiers were resting on blood-stained blue bricks. After a day and night of consumption, everyone had almost reached the critical point. But despite this, these few
The resting soldier still clutched the weapon in his hand, and from the corner of his eye he glanced at the enemy camp not far away from time to time.
No one knows when the next attack will be, perhaps, just an instant later.
"Brothers, it seems that we cannot defend this vast city." A middle-aged sergeant with a beard on his face exhaled heavily. As he said these words, a look of deathly gray appeared in his eyes unconsciously.
"Captain, even if I die, I will bite off a piece of the offal meat from the Nanyun Kingdom!" A young sergeant leaning on his left said through gritted teeth.
No one expected that the Nanyun Kingdom suddenly attacked their Dongming Kingdom like crazy. With deliberate calculation and unintentional calculation, they were caught off guard.
Cangmang City is only one of the thirteen cities in the Dongming Kingdom, with less than five thousand troops stationed there. After a day of bloody battle, not even one out of ten is left.
Although as the defender of the city, the Nanyun Kingdom suffered more casualties than them. But this time the other party sent 50,000 people. Even if seven or eight thousand people were lost, the remaining 40,000-strong army was not
A mere five or six hundred of them could resist it.
"Captain, as long as we hold on until dawn, perhaps the kingdom's reinforcements will be able to kill us!" Another sergeant who had an arm cut off looked at the captain with hope, but his tone was not very affirmative.
"Reinforcements..." the captain murmured softly, the bright color in his eyes flashed away, and then he let out a deep sigh. With the ferocity of the opponent's siege this time, he was determined to capture Cangmang
City. Cangmang City does not border the Kingdom of Nanyun, but is located in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Dongming. Since Nanyun's army has attacked here, the consequences for the several cities bordering Nanyun can be imagined.
As a veteran, the captain already knew that the so-called reinforcements were just self-comfort. Even if there were reinforcements, they would not be able to last until then.
"woo woo woo woo......."
A moment later, the worst result happened. Nanyun's attack horn sounded again, followed by a thundering cry of killing.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
Although he was exhausted, the moment the horn sounded, the captain got up from the ground as soon as he turned over, holding the saber in his hand tightly, hunched over and staring at the enemy siege troops rushing towards the city wall with a stern expression.
.
"Captain, look at Yuchen!" At this time, a sergeant who was preparing to meet the enemy suddenly saw the pale-faced young man leaning against the city wall, covered in cold sweat, and trembling like chaff.
"Yu Chen! How is your boy?"
"Remaining dust!"
...
Following the sergeant's roar, several people turned their attention to Li Yuchen. His appearance frightened everyone, and several people were busy checking his body.
"Strange, this kid is not injured!" After checking, the captain said with some confusion.
"Captain, isn't he tired and sick? After a day of fighting, we are as tired as dogs, let alone a fourteen-year-old boy like him!" The sergeant with a broken arm touched Li Yuchen.
He said with a worried look on his forehead.
Although they would inevitably die when the city gate was breached later. However, both he and the captain hoped that Li Yuchen could survive.
After all, he is only fourteen years old!
In this team, Li Yuchen is a very special being. Two years ago, when they were on a mission, they rescued the dying Li Yuchen on the roadside. From then on, Li Yuchen, who had nowhere to go, became the youngest member of their team.
of a sergeant.
These men really liked this little boy who usually didn't like to talk much, but who killed people more ruthlessly than the captain.
Li Yuchen is like their younger brother. When it comes to killing, no one in the entire team can compare with him, but he is young, smart and sensible, and diligent. It can be said that Li Yuchen is the team's villain, and no one can touch him.
.
"Hu Zi, you immediately retreat from the city tower with Yu Chen! If the enemy breaks through the city gate in a while, you will surrender with him! Remember, you must survive!" Listening to the closer and closer shouts of killing, the captain
He knitted his brows tightly together and gave the order decisively.
"Captain! You are not a coward. I would rather die standing than live on my knees!" When the broken-arm sergeant, who was called Huzi, heard the word surrender, he was like a cat that had been stepped on.
It exploded.
"Damn it, you are the man! Man, I won't even frown if you die, but what about this kid, do you want him to die with us? You are willing to do it!" Looking at the enemy soldiers who were already climbing the wall
, the captain was so angry that he kicked the tiger over, pointed at Li Yuchen and cursed loudly at him.
"The captain is right, this boy is our hope! We must not let him die!"
"Huzi, get down quickly! If you don't leave, it will be too late. Remember, you will take off his armor later and find a civilian uniform to put on!"
Several men who didn't frown even with a knife on their necks looked at Li Yuchen lying on the ground with a face as pale as tinfoil, and their eyes turned red.
"Captain!" Huzi roared with red eyes and gritted teeth. Their team may not be the strongest team in Cangmang City, but it is definitely the most united team. Let him abandon his robe at this time.
, it was simply more uncomfortable than killing him.
The friendship between brothers is stronger than the love between brothers.
