Chapter 738: Killing a Tomorrow

September 21st, Baishi City.

The orange-red sun rises from the mountains in the east, slowly climbs up the mountain, crosses the highest peak, and casts a thousand zhang rays of light on Baishi City in the valley, dyeing the blue ancient city with a layer of golden light.

Lord Ruan Pingping stood on the tower of the south gate, watching the allied troops slowly coming out from the three gates in the east, west and south, with a solemn expression and piety shining on his face.

"Shanhai City prevents us from having a tomorrow, so let's create a tomorrow!" Ruan Ping said.

The three armies are like three giant dragons, converging on the plain outside the south city gate, and slowly gathering into a giant battle formation. The grass outside the city was instantly paved by the black army, and there was no trace of variegation.

Even so, there are still troops waiting to gather in the city, and the vast plain outside the city cannot accommodate all the allied troops!

At the front of the phalanx was the 6,000-strong army from Huadong County.

The lord of Huadong County was tortured to death last night, but his army stayed behind. Because they didn't get any useful information, Ruan Ping knew he was wrong, but he didn't dare to keep the Huadong army by his side.

The best way to do that is to push them to the front.

The 6,000 Huadong County army is the best Death Squad. For this reason, Ruan Ping and the others arranged a supervising team of as many as 10,000 people behind them.

If there is any change in Huadong County's army, they will be shot as hedgehogs.

…………

The station of the Fanlihua Legion.

The anomaly in Baishi City made the Fanlihua Legion stand ready.

Late last night, Fan Lihua had already received a subpoena from Baishi City, knowing that No. 32 had been successfully obtained, and destroyed the enemy's teleportation formation in one fell swoop, making a remarkable achievement.

While Fan Lihua breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt awe-inspiring.

She knew very well that tomorrow would be the most difficult day for the Fanli Flower Army.

Shi Wansui's army, Elai's army, and Sun Bin's army have received military orders and are rushing to Baishi City. The closest Shi Wansui army will not be able to arrive at the battlefield until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest.

The farthest Sun Bin's army had to wait until the afternoon of the 22nd.

Whether it can resist the desperate struggle of 250,000 allied troops and persist on this most critical day will be the largest and most critical "military parade" for the Fanlihua Army since its formation.

It is also the battle of Fan Lihua's name rectification.

Fan Lihua must prove to the vast army of Shanhai City that she is worthy of the King's respect and trust.

"As the order goes on, all master regiments must stick to their positions, and use each fortification to its fullest in accordance with the defense plan formulated before. Anyone who loses their position will be dealt with by military law." Fan Lihua looked awe-inspiring.

"promise!"

The camp that has been repaired overnight is like a beast, waiting for the enemy to take the bait.

At the last military affairs meeting last night, Fan Lihua had already announced: "If the enemy troops are allowed to cross the third army's line of defense and break out of the siege, I will take the blame and resign from your majesty. As well as the hats of the brigade commanders, they were taken off first."

Fan Lihua's lightly glanced eyes didn't carry any trace of murderous intent, but it made all the men and generals in the camp feel chilly, and their hairs stood on end.

A division head later recalled the scene at that time very accurately. "Being swept away by the general, the blood that had been boiling in the body was instantly cooled, and a heart-warming chill came. I felt an invisible sword against us. On the neck, a slight mistake, and the head falls to the ground."

"We were thinking at the time that even if we died on the defensive line, we couldn't lose our position."

Fan Lihua's prestige in the Third Army can be seen.

…………

The horn of war officially sounded.

250,000 allied troops formed a battle formation, stepping on the beat of drums, and rushed towards the enemy camp in a dark manner. Before getting close, you can feel an invincible momentum that crushes everything.

The camp opposite was quiet, without a single noise, and the silence was a bit scary. Inside the camp, all the sergeants held their breaths, ready to reap the life of the enemy at any time.

As soon as the Allied forces came within range, arrows rained down the sky.

The rain of black arrows was countless, layer upon layer, densely packed, forming a torrent of steel, like a shady curtain, falling from a high altitude, causing a heinous slaughter in the Allied positions.

Wherever the arrows rained down, there was no one alive, and corpses littered the field.

Spike!

Because the arrow rain was too dense, the sergeant could not avoid it at all. The sword and shield soldiers are okay, they are protected by shields, and if they are lucky, they can escape. The archers died under the rain of arrows before they could fight back.

Huadong County's 6,000 troops were instantly depleted.

"charge!"

The Allied commander was brave enough to command the army to accelerate the charge.

Because it was attacking the camp, the Allied cavalry could not play a role, and all were deployed to the two wings as guards. The real main force of the siege is more than 100,000 sword and shield troops.

They braved the arrow rain and launched the strongest sprint.

The vast army was like a black tide, instantly submerging the tents.

After paying a heavy price, countless sword and shield soldiers stepped on the simple siege ladder, climbed up the wooden wall of the camp one after another, and fought with the Fanlihua Army stationed here.

As soon as the war started, the two sides entered the most intense and brutal close combat.

After all, a camp is just a camp.

No matter how well-prepared the Fanlihua Army was, it would be impossible for them to bring regular defense supplies such as kerosene, stones, lumber, and artillery. At most, they would arrange a large number of bed crossbows on the wooden walls.

Under the wooden wall, there are hundreds of trebuchets lined up.

Whether it was bed crossbows or trebuchets, they were originally prepared by the Third Army for siege, but now they are used for defense, and the damage caused to the Allied forces can be imagined.

On the battlefield where the sound of killing was loud, wave after wave of allied troops rushed up the wooden wall fearlessly, and were then repelled by the third army. The bodies of soldiers who died in battle fell to the foot of the wooden wall continuously like rain.

In a blink of an eye, a man-high corpse was piled up at the foot of the wooden wall.

And behind their siege soldiers, the damage caused by the rain of arrows and the trebuchets continued. Because the allied forces were too dense, the fireballs dropped by the trebuchets could set off a wave in the army formation every time.

Often when a fireball goes down, a large area can be killed.

An entire hour passed, and the camp was still as stable as Mount Tai, but more than 20,000 allied troops were completely buried here. The tragic situation of the battle was beyond everyone's imagination.

Guarding the wooden wall is the First Division of the Third Army, formerly known as the Leizhou County Garrison Division, and it is the fiercest division among the major security divisions.

In the Battle of Zhaoqing, the Leizhou County Garrison Division showed its talents to the fullest, even Bai Qi, the god of killing, praised him unceasingly.

After being reorganized into the Third Army, the division experienced another transformation and became more fierce, which can be regarded as a banner of the Third Army.

That's why Fan Lihua entrusted the most difficult task to the First Division. The current battle situation shows that the First Division is worthy of its prestigious reputation.

…………

The first battle was unfavorable, which made the Allied army hold a sigh of relief.

Thinking of the army of the lords watching the battle silently on the tower, the commanding general dare not neglect.

"Send the order, let the assault brigade go up!"

Allied commanders are ready to overwhelm the best assault troops and launch a storm.

"promise!"

A total of three assault brigades received the military order and immediately greeted them, like a trident, piercing into the heart of the wooden wall in an instant.

The extraordinaryness of the assault brigade was soon reflected.

This is a group of opponents who are on par with the First Division, and with the cooperation of countless allied forces, they will suppress the already damaged First Division in one fell swoop.

The time to break through the first line of defense is at hand.

"Okay, keep pressing!"

The Allied commander looked excited, and the army was sent to the front line as if they didn't want money.

In this way, the First Division will be even more difficult.

Once a certain critical point was passed, the casualty data of the First Division immediately soared.

…………

In the inner circle tent, in a tower building.

"General, let the First Division withdraw, they can't take it anymore!" the adjutant reminded Fan Lihua.

Fan Lihua glanced at the hourglass in front of her, with a firm expression on her face: "Wait a little longer!" The first line of defense lasted half an hour less than what Fan Lihua had imagined.

"General, the First Division has been disabled, leave some seeds for them!"

"Even if they are all defeated, they have to resist."

Fan Lihua remained unmoved, not because she was hard-hearted, but because she carried the entire army on her shoulders, and was even the key player in the victory of the Lingnan Great War, so she couldn't tolerate any soft-heartedness.

The first division must resist!

…………

Wooden wall positions.

The fighting continued, and people fell every moment.

Relying on their tenacious will and well-trained training, the First Division finally persevered under the attack of the Allied Assault Brigade, although it was crumbling.

But such perseverance cannot last for long.

The key to the outcome of a war ultimately depends on the balance of forces between the two sides, and it cannot be completely reversed simply by relying on morale.

Now that the battle has been fought, almost every soldier of the First Division has been hanged.

"Boss, the general asked us to hold on for half an hour." The messenger ran over.

The head of the division, Zhao Yan, was also covered in blood. After receiving the military order, he grinned his lips, looked around his comrades, and said with emotion: "Brothers, have you all heard? The general is not very satisfied with us. F-he - Damn, even if you die, you can't lose the prestige of the First Division. Don't you think so?"

"Come on, boss, that's your prestige. Are you afraid that if you don't complete the mission, you will be picked up by the general when you go back? Haha~~~" The surrounding brigade commanders didn't buy it, and they didn't give the boss Zhao Yan face. .

"piss off!"

Zhao Yan also knew the virtues of his generals, so he said hesitantly: "Stop talking nonsense, isn't it just risking your life? We really are not afraid of this. We can't let the bastards of other divisions see jokes, let alone make the enemy proud. Really If you can't stand this half hour, I will die with you."

"Boss, you are not a beauty, we don't want you to accompany me!"

"roll roll roll!"

Zhao Yan kicked them, raised his knife and went up, this time he really wanted to risk his life!
