Chapter 474

On the walls of the west city of Yunwu.

The soldiers who were left stranded on the wall by the Western Qiang retreat had already been slaughtered, and even their corpses had been pushed down the wall.

Wang Yi, tall and wearing leather armor, was stained with blood.

The short spear in her hand had also been stained red with blood.

The red tassels were eye-catching.

The surviving soldiers didn't have time to grieve; they carried their wounded companions to the side against the battlements and placed the fallen corpses on the opposite side.

The bleak autumn wind carried withered yellow leaves onto the blood-stained ground.

A feeling of emptiness and lingering fear, like never before, surged into Wang Yi's heart.

Coupled with the fierce fighting just now, Wang Yi needed to lean against the battlements to barely stabilize her figure.

The soldiers around her looked at Wang Yi with eyes full of recognition and admiration.

A military commander stepped forward, untied the wine flask from his waist, and handed it to Wang Yi.

"Take a sip; it's normal to be on the battlefield for the first time."

The military commander said as if talking to himself: "When I was on the battlefield for the first time, I wasn't as good as you."

"At that time, I thought I was very brave, but when I saw the enemy charging on horseback, I was completely stunned with fear."

"If it weren't for the old squad leader pulling me, I might have died then."

The military commander nodded and said: "You are already very impressive; a young girl who can hold a spear and kill the enemy is no less than a man."

Wang Yi looked at the wine flask in the military commander's hand and didn't reach out to take it.

She had never drunk alcohol before.

The military commander unscrewed the wine flask himself, took a big gulp, and then wiped the corner of his mouth.

"It's normal for people to die in war."

"If you don't kill them, they will kill you."

"Perhaps the person who was talking to you a moment ago will become a corpse the next moment."

The military commander's gaze looked outside the city.

Outside the city.

Tian Yan's corpse was still lying on the cold ground.

But no one dared to open the city gate.

They could only let the old general's corpse lie there alone.

Perhaps... it wasn't lonely, because beside Tian Yan, there were also many corpses of Han soldiers.

Just as Wang Yi was thinking about whether she would also die in this Yunwu like Tian Yan.

A series of heavy footsteps sounded from under the wall.

Wang Yi, who turned her head, saw a tall great general wearing a set of extremely conspicuous black thorn armor with a red cloak behind him.

It's him!

Wang Yi's beautiful eyes lit up.

Wang Yi had seen clearly the scene of Duan Yu charging outside the city just now.

Several military commanders followed Duan Yu and came straight to the west gate.

The surrounding soldiers immediately straightened their backs and looked at Duan Yu.

Although they didn't know Duan Yu's identity, looking at Duan Yu's attire and the scene of him charging outside the city just now, they knew that Duan Yu's identity was absolutely extraordinary.

The military commanders behind Duan Yu quickly arrived on the wall and asked: "Where is Old General Tian?"

"This is the Prefect of Hanyang Commandery, Zhonglang General for the Xiongnu, General Duan." ===== CHAPTER 476 =====
