Chapter 479: The Crazy Western Qiang, Duan Yu at Full Combat Power!【3】

~5 min read 973 words

Early the next morning.

The sun rose as usual.

But what woke the people in Yunwu City was not the crowing of chickens or the singing of birds.

It was the thunderous war drums and the low sound of horns.

Accompanied by the rising morning sun.

The various Western Qiang camps outside Yunwu City began to mobilize their troops.

Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand.

Thirty thousand troops were lined up in a dense sea of people.

Scaling ladders, battering rams, and Qiang soldiers holding shields and long spears and short swords stared at Yunwu City in front.

Compared to the siege of the past few days, today the Western Qiang tribes almost brought out all their strength.

Behind the military formation.

Beigong Boyu, the old king of the Shaodang Qiang, and others rode on horses, facing Yunwu City.

"The Shaodang old king's troops attack the west city of Yunwu!"

"The County Magistrate old king's troops attack the north city of Yunwu!"

"The Huangzhong Yi Cong and the rest of the Qiang tribes, as well as the Xiutu, attack the east city of Yunwu."

"Before sunset and dark, level Yunwu!"

"Kill Duan Yu!"

Beigong Boyu, riding on his horse, raised the short sword in his hand high: "Kill!"

Accompanied by Beigong Boyu's shout, the drum beats suddenly accelerated.

The Western Qiang soldiers, stretching across the mountains, rushed toward the distant Yunwu City like a sea of people.

The distant Yunwu City seemed like a lonely reef in the vast ocean, while the charging Western Qiang soldiers were like towering waves.

On the walls of Yunwu.

When seeing the scene of tens of thousands of Western Qiang soldiers charging, all the defending soldiers on the wall prayed silently in their hearts.

Praying to see tomorrow's sun, praying for their ancestors to grant them strength.

East city.

Duan Yu, in black thorn armor, stood by the battlements.

His arms were stretched out, pressing on the battlements on both sides.

The bright red cloak behind him fluttered with the strong wind.

Like a large red banner.

The Heaven-Dragon Halberd was stuck to the side, and Duan Yu stared at the Western Qiang soldiers like waves.

As the saying goes, when there are ten thousand people, they stretch across the mountains.

This was Duan Yu's first time.

The first time he had seen such a shocking ancient siege.

The Han soldiers on the wall had already pulled the bows in their hands.

Five hundred paces.

Three hundred paces.

Two hundred paces!

One hundred paces!

Eighty paces!

As the Qiang soldiers entered the range of the bows and arrows, the defending Han soldiers raised their fully drawn long bows high.

Immediately following, a rain of arrows rose into the sky.

At eighty paces, after three waves of arrow volleys, the Qiang soldiers were shot down batch after batch.

But soon, the gaps were filled by the Qiang soldiers rushing behind, charging toward the city wall again.

With only three waves of arrow opportunities, the Qiang soldiers had already rushed to the foot of the wall.

Huge scaling ladders were placed on the city wall.

Then the Qiang soldiers, biting their knives and swords, began to climb like ants.

Behind them, the battering ram was pushed slowly by dozens of people.

Soldiers holding shields over their heads were lined up on both sides of the battering ram, just like a huge black centipede crawling slowly.

Duan Yu pulled out the Heaven-Dragon Halberd stuck on the wall and pushed it directly toward a scaling ladder.

"Up!"

Duan Yu, using force suddenly, pushed away the scaling ladder that normally required more than a dozen soldiers to push.

"General is mighty!"

"General is mighty!"

"General is mighty!"

Duan Yu's brave actions immediately aroused the cheers of the surrounding soldiers.

Morale was ignited.

The defending soldiers pulled their bows and arrows, poked their heads out from the battlements, and continued to shoot arrows down the wall.

However, there were also Qiang soldiers at the foot of the wall using bows and arrows to counterattack.

From time to time, Han soldiers were shot off the wall and fell down.

The city wall, more than five meters high, sounded very high.

It also looked very shocking.

But when truly facing a siege of tens of thousands of troops, even Duan Yu felt that the city wall should be higher.

Scaling ladders were pushed down by Duan Yu with the Heaven-Dragon Halberd.

But soon, other scaling ladders were placed on the city wall.

Back and forth.

Duan Yu could only run back and forth on the east wall.

Just like a firefighter.

From time to time, Qiang soldiers climbed onto the wall, and as soon as they revealed a head, they were smashed by Duan Yu with a halberd.

No heroic words.

No tragic scenes before death.

Just life and death.

The Qiang soldiers who climbed onto the wall shouted hysterically and crazily.

The defending Han soldiers had red eyes and gritted their teeth, not retreating a single step.

When the hot blood in their chests was sprayed out from the wounds they were cut open, the soldiers' eyes returned to normal; their past lives, the bonds they couldn't let go of, all kinds of memories and longing turned into gray pictures, and finally disappeared in this world.

"General..."

"West city is in an emergency!"

"General..."

"The Beicheng is in critical danger, the Beicheng is in critical danger, the city wall is about to fall!"

Duan Yu didn't know how long he had been fighting.

When the shouts rang in his ears, Duan Yu woke up from the slaughter.

From a distance, Duan Yu looked toward the west city and the north city.

With the naked eye, one could see more and more Qiang flags already planted on the wall.

"Damn it!" ===== CHAPTER 481 =====
