Chapter 1308 The Night of the Broken City (1)

The wind is cold, and the snow is even colder.

Outside the walls, across the frozen river, stood a row of crosses in the snow.

Those crosses were all nailed with Nero's soldiers, and those soldiers were all dead, their bodies frozen stiff in the wind and snow.

Even if they died, they did not receive the respect they deserved. Their corpses were hung high, and they had to suffer this kind of humiliation after death.

These crosses full of dead bodies lined up from the river bank, so that the scene had an unprecedented psychological impact on the Nero soldiers on the city wall.

They were extremely indignant at the bestiality committed by the Ohre people, and their impulsiveness made them lose their minds. At this moment, they could not care about anything else, and they only wanted to avenge their dead brothers.

This time, there were hundreds of Nero soldiers who turned down the city wall privately. They could not restrain their inner anger and rushed towards the river where the cross was erected.

At this time, on those vertical crosses, there was one person who was not dead yet, and that was Aldrich.

His hands had been frozen purple-black, and he completely lost consciousness, but even if he was still breathing, he was reminding the Nero soldiers who rushed down, "Don't come over, back quickly, there are traps!" He He shouted again and again with all his strength, hoping to make those Nero soldiers go back quickly.

But the wind and snow were too heavy, and he was very imaginary, so the soldiers couldn't hear what he was shouting at all.

Seeing that the soldiers rushing to the front were about to reach the bank of the river, suddenly a group of O'Here soldiers holding crossbow arrows emerged from the white snow on the other side of the river.

They had already ambushed here, and it was expected that the Nero soldiers inside the city wall would rush out after seeing such a scene, waiting for these irrational soldiers to come to die.

"No, don't come here!"

Aldrich was still crying, but his throat was hoarse, and he couldn't make a sound at this moment.

These long-awaited Ohrei soldiers shot crossbow arrows at these Nero soldiers, and all the angry Nero soldiers were shot to the ground for a while.

Some brave Nilotic soldiers wanted to rush across the river to fight the O'Here soldiers, but the crossbow arrows on the opposite side were too dense, and hundreds of Nilotic soldiers were killed and injured after a few rounds of volleys.

Hundreds of brothers explained everything in the blink of an eye. Seeing this scene, Art was so angry that he almost gritted his back molars. He kicked hard on the wall, and the feeling of powerlessness filled his heart.

Seeing that Art was so furious, none of the soldiers around him dared to step forward to persuade him.

"These bastards, I'll go down and fight with them!"

Some generals couldn't stand it anymore, and completely ignored it, only thinking of rushing down to fight those Ohre people to the death.

Art shouted angrily, "Stop!" His eyes shot out with anger, and he reprimanded the general who wanted to go out of the city to fight, "Do you even want to disobey my military orders?"

"But they've all been like that."

"So what, no one can leave the city without my order, and those who disobey the order will be executed!"

Looking at Aldrich who was nailed to the cross in the snow, the anger in Art's heart was no less than anyone's, but he was still trying his best to restrain his impulse, so as not to be dazzled by anger, the more he At this time, as the coach, he has to keep rational.

Now the O'here people are waiting outside waiting for the Nile people to rush over to die, and if they rush forward rashly, they will hit the enemy's arms.

The wind and snow continued, and more and more Ohre soldiers gathered on the opposite side of the river. It seemed that in less than an hour, the entire river bank was crowded with Ohre soldiers. It seemed that their Western Expeditionary Army had already Arrival, the follow-up legion is also arriving one after another.

Art on the city wall has already felt that the balance of this battle is tilting towards O'Here, and if it drags on, the northern border will inevitably fall.

Even so, as long as he is the commander in chief of the northern border for a moment, he will never give up.

The Ohrei's army was lined up neatly, as if they were about to attack at any time. The Nero soldiers on the city wall were all in formation, ready to fight the enemy for the final battle.

However, the O'Here people seemed to have made a joke with the Nilo people. Although they had set up their formation, they just didn't make any moves.

From early morning to dusk, even the snow stopped, and these Ohrei soldiers did not take any action.

The more this happened, the more uneasy the Nero soldiers on the city wall became. They didn't dare to relax for a moment, for fear that the Ohres would start attacking the city.

As time went by, from dusk to night, the wind and snow that had stopped blowing up again, and at this time all of O'Here's legions had arrived at the front line, and nine corps were distributed outside the Great Wall. Dots of torches.

Waiting is an extremely anxious thing, especially when most of the Nero soldiers are still hungry.

This kind of negative emotion quickly spread throughout the army like an infectious disease. Everyone became anxious, and no one knew when the Ohres would come to fight.

In the commander's room, the soldiers brought Art a bowl of gruel.

Holding this bowl of porridge, Art felt unspeakably uncomfortable. This was already the last ration of the northern fortress. As a commander, he could only eat this last bite of porridge, and the soldiers outside were already hungry for several times. pause.

"This is the last food, eat it quickly." Art brought the porridge in front of Cynthia.

"Brother, it's better for you, you need more food than me." Cynthia shook her head, refusing to take the bowl of porridge from Art.

Aya also persuaded: "Your Highness, the princess is right, you should eat it yourself."

In fact, counting, Art has not had a drop of water for a whole day. The huge physical exertion and Aldrich's experience made him very sad. His mental state is worse than others, but at this time he can only hold on. .

Under the persuasion of Cynthia and Aya, Art finally drank the bowl of hot porridge, which made him feel much better.

After finishing the porridge, Art said with a serious expression on his business, "It seems that the northern border is going to be unstoppable. The Ohre people may break the city at any time. I have no way to protect you anymore. Now that the enemy is still here If there is no call, you should run away quickly."

"No, I won't run away, even if I die in battle." Cynthia immediately refused firmly.

"This is not a joke!" Art didn't let Cynthia do whatever he wanted this time, because this time he really felt that the northern border was about to be broken, and he didn't want his sister to die here, "Aya, you are Cynthia Maid, you should protect her safety. I order you now to take Princess Cynthia and leave here, no matter where you go, as long as you leave here immediately."
