Chapter 162 What You Shouldn't Watch
A few hours later, the sun, which had not been seen for many days, finally broke through the clouds and sprinkled on the city wall, moving slowly, illuminating the water in the city to fluctuate.

Batch after batch of people fell outside the city, and new soldiers came up in turn, still fighting.

Lin Yao sat on the horse with a gloomy expression.

He broke the city at the time of death, and now it seems that he may not be able to attack.

"General," Liu Yida came up immediately, and said in a tired voice, "the enemy's situation is not right, and their mood seems to be getting higher and higher. If we can't attack our side, the soldiers will not be able to persist."

Lin Yaoru didn't react at all if he didn't hear it.

Liu Yi looked worried, and said again: "General, the best hours of the siege have passed, and we failed to win in one fell swoop. If we continue to fight, we will only be held back!"

"Take it down for me," Lin Yao finally said, and said coldly, "I will definitely chop off Zhao Yuan's head."

………………

Xia Zhaoyi got up very late, and when she opened the door to come out, the setting sun made her narrow her eyes slightly.

The weather was clear, clear as blue, with scattered pure white cotton clouds floating.

Xia Zhaoyi walked down the earth steps slowly, his cloth shoes were still cold in the muddy water.

Everyone in the big house was busy building the boat, and there were many clanging and clanging sounds.

The smell of food wafted out of the hut where the rice was cooked and boiled water. The girl just came out with a pot of hot water, looked up and saw the girl standing there, and smiled, "Ali, you're awake."

Xia Zhaoyi nodded, watched her approach, and said, "Thanks for your hard work."

"Where is it?" The girl smiled.

"You get busy first," Xia Zhaoyi said, "I'll go and see the wounded."

"Hmm! Good!"

Xia Zhaoyi turned around and left.

First, I checked Pang Yi's situation. When I went in, I found that he had a high fever, but Lao Tong used some folk remedies and was cooling down.

The inflammation of the wound on the lower abdomen did not become serious, which reassured Xia Zhaoyi a little. After making a few ointments, she asked Lao Tong to continue wiping him, and she went over there to visit another injured person.

Afterwards, she went out to lead Qingyun, told a passing middle-aged man that she would be back in the afternoon, and then rode out.

The water was still deep on the road, and he ran all the way towards Peifeng, seeing the city from a distance, and at the same time, he heard the movements in the sky.

Xia Zhaoyi reined in his horse, thought for a while, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, rolled some vanilla inside, wrapped it under his nose, then turned around and ran to the southwest.

The water flowed down from the height, and she rode Qingyun for more than half an hour. She wanted to find a high place to see the situation in the west city, but she didn't want to see dozens of corpses lying in a mess on the open plain to the south.

All the corpses were left with only the underwear inside, or even bare chested. From the uniform trousers and shoes, it can be seen that these are soldiers. The cloth armor was taken away, and the weapons were also taken away.

Xia Zhaoyi looked at the direction in which they fell, and raised his eyes to the south.

Looking at the sky from this angle, there is only one endless road, but in the middle of this road, Xia Zhaoyi knew that there was something blocking it.

Subconsciously, she tightened the small cloth roll wrapped around her nose, took a deep look at the corpses, and drove her horse forward.

The movement ahead was getting louder and louder, and the manic roars of the men were overwhelming.

Heavy weapons were brought in, and they rampaged through the crowd, screaming everywhere they passed.

Soldiers in hand-to-hand combat are even more crazy, either killing each other or being killed themselves, there is no way out at all.

Stepping on the corpses of their companions, stepping on the corpses of each other, those bodies that were trampled on the ground, some of them could not even distinguish the facial features, and their flesh and blood were mutilated.

Xia Zhaoyi climbed up a mound that was not very high, and raised her eyes to look into the distance. In her eyes, the crowd was as small as gravel.

Those siege machines that walk in it are like machines that are cold and devour life.

Xia Zhaoyi frowned slightly, sat down cross-legged, put his palms lightly on his ankles, and stared there for a long time.

The thin back is slightly arched, lonely and isolated in the breeze.

…………

Jiang Ping almost couldn't stand on his feet, he stumbled down the city wall, and was tightly supported by the servants next to him.

Zhao Xuan was exhausted and had already retreated. Now he was leaning against the corner of the wall and eating a sesame seed cake. Looking at Jiang Pingsheng's earth-colored face, Zhao Xuan laughed, drank his saliva and said, "Should curiosity be enough?" Yes? Are you scared?"

Jiang Pingsheng came, raised his hands and saluted, and said, "General Zhao."

"Isn't it scary?" Zhao Xi asked again.

Jiang Pingsheng nodded with a pale face.

The water on the ground is like the sea, the purgatory on earth is like a furnace, and the fresh life disappears in an instant, how could it not be scary.

"If you guys come a little slower, I'll have to, Kacha, that's it." Zhao Xuan said while breaking the biscuit in his hand into two pieces.

Jiang Pingsheng bowed again: "Forgive me, General."

"Gentleman," Zhao Yan smiled again, and waved his hand, "What kind of courtesy, what kind of sin is forgiven, we still have to thank you, it's just that." Zhao Yuan turned his finger lightly, pointing to the outside of the city wall, "Those are not what you should see, you really shouldn't go up there."

Jiang Pingsheng nodded: "En."

It has long been heard that Zhao Xuan has a rough temperament, is not very friendly, and hates civil servants. Now it seems that the rumors are true.

Zhao Xi didn't speak anymore, raised his hand and took another bite of sesame seed cakes, and looked towards the city wall, his eyes seemed to be able to see the fierce battle outside through it.

Shen Lie was in another place, helping to bandage the wounds of the wounded, and happened to overhear their conversation.

He didn't look back, and concentrated on treating the wounded man's wound.

On the other hand, Du Xuan couldn't help it, and looked back at Zhao Xuan, feeling that the general's temper was really weird.

At this time, shouting and cursing came from behind, and it was still a very clear and sweet girl's voice.

Many people turned their heads to see a girl in a palace dress standing upright, angrily scolding a soldier.

The soldier was scolded miserably, his head drooped, but he still stretched out his hand stubbornly, blocking their way.

"You are bold!" The girl's voice was sonorous and powerful, very resonant, "Where is the princess going, you can stop it!"

The soldier didn't say a word, his face was a little pale, and his hand was still stretched out.

"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame us for being rude!" the girl said angrily again.

Seeing this, Jiang Pingsheng hurried over: "Princess!"

Behind the girl was a group of people and horses, and the one riding in the middle was a bright girl, dressed in military uniform, with a fair complexion, standing upright on the horse's back, radiant, heroic and capable.

Seeing Jiang Pingsheng, she showed some impatience on her face: "I just want to see what it's like to fight. Why are you stopping me? I don't want to go out of the city."
