Chapter 1089: We are willing to live and die with this city!
“Plop! Plop! Plop!”
With a series of loud bangs, more than a thousand soldiers knelt down in unison.””We are willing to live and die with this city!”
Seeing this, some civil officials also knelt down and laughed,””This old man is willing to live and die with this city!”
“Boom boom boom ...”
In an instant, the people on the city wall knelt down.
“We are willing to live and die with this city!”
“We are willing to live and die with this city!”
“......”
Millions of people in the city shouted in unison.
The atmosphere of the world was pushed to its peak, and countless people had determined expressions.
If it was said that they might have been afraid of death before, but after witnessing Yun Yi’s actions with their own eyes, the fear in their hearts no longer existed and was replaced by courage and determination.
This kind of movement could be said to be earth-shaking, causing the Army outside the city to change their expressions. They were all shocked by this aura.
“Forcefully incite the People’s hearts?”
Outside the city, the substitute Prince looked at all of this with a slight ridicule, and then looked at Yun Yi and sneered,””This woman is not simple. Unfortunately, she is only a woman!”
“Even the gods can’t save you today!”
He raised his hand slightly, and an extremely indifferent voice came out of his mouth,””Attack the city, don’t leave a single one alive!”
The moment these words were said!
“The substitute King has ordered us to attack the city. Leave no one alive!” Someone shouted.
“Shua shua shua ...”
The hundreds of thousands of soldiers who had been silent suddenly took a step forward, pushing their siege weapons forward.
Things like battering rams, siege ladders, kerosene, trebuchets, and so on were so numerous that it made one’s scalp go numb.
“Empress Dowager, please step aside!”
The commander of the Imperial Army, MA yuanxun, roared and turned to the soldiers guarding the city,””Is your blood still warm? Are you afraid of death?”
“Fight to the death!”
“Fight to the death!“
On the city wall, 30000 soldiers roared in unison. They took a step forward and unsheathed their long blades.
There were no less than 300000 rebels!
All of them added together only had 30000 people. Even though the disparity in battle strength was too great, so what?
At most, he would just die!
“Fellow villagers, if there’s anyone who’s not afraid of death, you can come forward. Today, we’ll let the rebel army know that even if they die, we’ll make them pay the price!”
The Minister of Justice, Li Shan Yuan, laughed sadly.
“Count me in!”
A dark-skinned man carrying a child in the city responded and silently handed the child to his wife.””If I die, you can remarry and raise our son well.”
After saying that, he resolutely stepped onto the city gate tower, leaving behind the bawling child and his wife, who was secretly wiping her tears.
A disheveled young man knelt heavily in front of an old man.””Grandfather, the country is in trouble. Please forgive your grandson for not being able to take care of you in your old age ...”
“Child, go ...”
The old man stretched out his old hand and gently touched his face. He said in a trembling voice,””You go first, I’ll come to find you after I’ve collected your bones ...”
The young man nodded and climbed up the City Tower. A burly Imperial Army soldier handed him a bow and said,””Can you?”
“I will!”
The young man took the bow and pulled it into a full moon shape.””My family is poor, so I often go hunting in the mountains ...”
“Alright, stand behind me later!“
The burly Imperial Guard grinned.”You can attack me after I die. If I’m not dead, please help me collect my bones and bring them back to my family. By the way, they’re all called old black. What about you ...”
“I’m ding Peng ...”
The young man’s eyes immediately turned red.
“And me ...”
“A man’s death is his death ...”
“Shua shua shua ...”
In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, hundreds of thousands of young and strong men in the city stood up one after another. These people spontaneously stood behind the city gate.
Due to the lack of weapons and equipment, most of them did not have protective armor, and they did not even have a suitable weapon.
Some of them were holding wooden sticks, some were holding iron rakes for digging feces, and some were holding two vegetable knives ...
Yun Yi was almost in tears as she watched this scene.
She had been entrusted with an important task by the late Emperor!
However, from the beginning to the end, he had never felt much acknowledgment for the responsibility of the world. To be precise, he resisted it!
However, at this moment!
She only felt that even if she were to die immediately!
He had no regrets!
“Kill!”
The commanders of the rebel army shouted in unison.
“Boom ...”
The leading Army of more than 100000 soldiers marched forward, carrying a huge battering ram as they headed straight for the city gate.
Siege ladders were pushed forward, and trebuchets were launched one after another. Shields that blotted out the sky and covered the earth smashed directly at the city walls.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the world suddenly changed. Like a mountain flood, the sharp sounds of killing covered everything.
“Release the arrows!!!”
MA yuanxun, who was on the city wall, shouted.
Out of the nearly 50000 soldiers, 10000 archers stepped out and nocked their arrows, ignoring the flying boulders!
“Plop, plop, plop ...”
Some people screamed and some fell!
However, every time a person fell, someone would stand up and take his place!
“Shua shua shua ...”
An overwhelming rain of arrows shot down from the city walls, landing on the attacking Army like a dense rain!
Some of the rebel soldiers fell, while others screamed!
However, when the number of casualties was compared to the total number of people, it was like a stone falling into the ocean, unable to cause a single wave!
The substitute King sat in the carriage and looked at the scene in front of him expressionlessly, as if the death of his life had no effect on him at all.
“Substitute King, why don’t we split our forces into four and attack from the four gates at the same time?”
“They have very few soldiers and equipment,” a tactician said.”They definitely can’t defend all four gates at the same time. If any of the gates is broken through, it’ll be their death ...”
“What’s the hurry?”
The substitute King peeled an orange and said while eating,”I have the advantage in numbers. If we want to fight, we have to crush all their hopes. Only then will the other seven know how powerful I am ...”
“The seven Kings are on their way now. I’m worried that they’ll pick up the ready-made ones ...” The counselor hesitated.
“You’re too noisy!”
The substitute King looked at him coldly!
Just this one glance!
The other party hurriedly apologized and did not say a word.
“Boom boom boom ...”
As the earth-shaking sounds became more and more intense, the siege entered a state of white heat, and people kept dying.
Thousands of soldiers had died in an instant. Corpses kept falling down, and people who were not afraid of death kept replacing them.
Yun Yi clenched his fists tightly, already sobbing,””Your Majesty, take a good look. These people died for you, for the great sects and the royal family ...”
The little emperor covered her eyes with her hands and screamed in fear.
At this moment, the attacking Army was less than 100 feet away from the north gate, pushing the battering ram. As long as they got close, the tall North Gate would be knocked open in no time.
“Archers!” MA yuanxun roared.”We can’t let them get close to the city gate. Even if they all die, we must hold on. The state preceptor is on his way back to help ...”
