"What are you doing"

A seasoned veteran yanked a terrified civilian cowering beneath the city wall, roaring, "Get up! You goddamn get your ass up here!"

Grabbing the civilian, the veteran roared, "You're on the wall, they can't reach you! Take up your bow and arrows and rocks, smash them down!"

"Don't die if you want to listen to me!"

The commoner's face was pale with fright. His legs turned to jelly and he struggled to draw back his bow, but he just couldn't muster the strength.

"Damn waste of space!"

The veteran flew into a rage, kicking the conscript aside with his foot and bellowing, "You useless good-for-nothing! Get to work hauling these stones!"

The coolies nodded frantically, immediately carrying stones over and then mimicking the old soldiers' actions, smashing them against the city wall.

A colossal stone, laden with immense weight, plummeted from the city wall.

Under the city wall, there were enemy soldiers packed together like sardines. At such a density, there was no need to aim; simply throwing anything down would surely take out three or five lives.

Seeing two Liao soldiers crushed into a bloody pulp by the stones he had thrown, the conscript was still afraid, but inexplicably felt a surge of confidence.

Actually, one can kill people too. One doesn't have to be so afraid.

Ke could not bear to let him enjoy his happiness for long. An arrow, swift and powerful, suddenly shot from below the city walls.

"Get out of the way!!!"

In the ears of the conscript, came the roar of the veteran.

The laborer instinctively turned to look at the veteran, before a hint of confusion could cross his face, the nearly meter-long arrow, imbued with immense force, pierced through his exposed side.

Enter from the left temple and exit from the right temple.

The force was so great, it even lifted a skull off the ground.

Warm liquid mixed with white brains splattered, the laborer's face still etched with a mixture of excitement and fear, before the body went limp on the ground.

Similar scenes are also taking place in various locations across Dongmen.

Far away from the battlefield, a group of people were using the terrain to observe the siege.

"The progress is quite fast."

Guzaiyue's expression was somewhat confused as he said, "In the previous skirmishes, the resistance at Yueyaguan had been much stronger. But now, they feel... different. Like they aren't the Qin army we faced before."

Someone said, "Chieftain, could it be that the Qin army is scared"

"Scared"

"Guzaiylo shook his head and said: 'Yueya Guan has stood here for countless years. If they were afraid, they would have been crushed by the Liao army long ago. There's no reason for them to be afraid now.'"

No sooner had her words left her lips than a scout from the front came rushing to report.

"Chief, the investigation is complete. Leading the attack on the eastern gate are Generals Guza Wandashan and Guza Tailong of our Guza tribe. The two generals command an army of 50,000 warriors from various smaller tribes, forming a vanguard force of 50,000 to spearhead the assault on the east gate."

The scout's voice and expression were tinged with excitement.

In his eyes, the warriors of his Guzha tribe leading an army of 50,000 was a momentous occasion, something that hadn't happened in decades. It was a stroke of good fortune.

This represents the warriors of their own Guza tribe, who have already begun to master military power.

But Guzaylo and the other members of the Guzay tribe's faces turned pale.

Gu Zayilo's face was frighteningly grim as he calmly said, "Continue the investigation."

After the scout left, someone immediately cursed: “Yelü Shenxuan, you little brat! Are you going to let our Guzha tribe warriors be cannon fodder, go die!”

Sieges have always been the most difficult and costly form of warfare.

And in this kind of siege warfare, the most brutal casualties were suffered by the vanguard troops.t had been hacked to pieces. The wounds crisscrossed its surface, and the rotten flesh revealed tangled hair. Black blood clots formed patches on it, within which numerous white maggots writhed.This...
