Chapter 289

The long wind howled, bringing bloody wind.Early the next morning, Amutu, the leader of Nannu Chili, led his troops to attack Loulan City first.

There were shouts of killing everywhere, and the soldiers were running back and forth on the city wall, constantly waving their swords to cut off the hooks thrown up on the city wall, and shooting back down the city with sharp arrows.

The top of the city is full of appearances of the Chu army, those pitch-black battle armors flashed with a gnawing cold light, which made the Huns below more firm in their identity as the enemy in front, Nannu Chili's deeds were not discovered by Qingxia One of the tribes that had been massacred, the hatred for the Chu army had gone deep into the bone marrow. Amutu was a sturdy man, and he took the lead, leading a group of Huns on horseback, roaring and fighting.The city wall was several feet high, so they threw hook-and-lock ladders to the top of the city, and they climbed up bravely. Behind them, a large number of archers ran back and forth, shooting arrows upwards to cover them. Under the obstruction of the water arrow, he was still suppressed and could not lift his head.Large pieces of blood and human heads fell down as if they were cutting wheat, the yellow sand was everywhere, and the blood mud was mixed.

Qing Xia stood on top of the wall, commanding the army to counterattack in an orderly manner. Nannu Chili was a prairie man who was good at horse fighting, but he was not proficient in siege. The methods he used were very clumsy, and the number of people was not enough.With Huang Biao's sneak attack on the grassland before, now that the Huns have sent troops, they no longer dare to give up all they have.Qing Xia knew that the real battle hadn't started yet, so she didn't exhaust her strength.

The day's siege passed slowly in such a time of heavy thunder and little rain, and the casualties on both sides were not large, but at dusk, a shrill horn suddenly sounded from the northwest, and Qing Xia felt a chill down her spine when she heard the sound. Knowing that Guli Ashu finally couldn't bear the loneliness and was going to attack himself.But Chu Li's reinforcements, which she said to appease the soldiers, would never come. For a moment, she didn't even know how to hold on.

Under the city wall, densely packed Hun soldiers slowly covered them like a dark cloud. The oil-soaked cowhide armor was hardened by the fire. There were clanging sounds when they moved, and the sharp swords flashed with a bloodthirsty cold light. , coupled with those exposed thick shoulders, more and more murderous aura rushed towards him.

If such a tough soldier was encountered on the flat ground, it might only take three rounds to tear through the Chu army's defense line. Qingxia's victory this time was that she rushed to Loulan after the Xichuan people and before the Huns.Yanhui massacred the whole city of Loulan in order to anger the Xiongnu and sit back and watch the war between the Xiongnu and Southern Chu, but he didn't want to be interfered by Qingxia, destroying his plan, and occupying Loulan's land, making the current siege fortress It took a lot of effort.Moreover, the most exasperating thing is that he has not been able to determine who the generals in the city are until now.Because most of the Huns retreated from the war, he lost Chu Li's whereabouts, and thought that Zhuang Qingxia was still fighting with Hua Rongyue and Lu Huayang in Longya, so his doubts about the identity of the people in the city made him more careful .

The Huns avoided the main city, divided into two sides and double wings to attack by building ladders. The Huns under Guli Ashu were far from being comparable to Nannu Chili. Those shirtless men held wolf knives in their mouths Holding a dagger, he stabbed a knife on the city wall and climbed up a step. When he stopped, he found a rough foothold, grabbed the bow and arrow behind him and shot upwards, clinging to the city wall like a gecko.

Bucket after bucket of boiling water was poured down, but it was cold in the night, when the water was poured on the Huns, it was no longer scalding, and fewer and fewer people fell down. Only then did Qing Xia know why Gu Li A Shu Choose to attack at this time, and at this time there is no more boiling oil in the city.

The neighing of war horses, the screams of human voices, and the emptying of arrows, all the sounds seemed to come from another world.Qingxia stood on the top of the city, wearing a white battle armor, with a black cloak fluttering behind her, she didn't rush to the front, but stood firmly on the top of the city, so that all the Chu troops could see her, See their coach.She just wanted them to know that even in such a critical situation, she was still with them, holding on tenaciously for Nanchu, for their homeland, and for their respective beliefs.

The rumbling war drums rang, and the ground under their feet seemed to be beating with everyone's hearts. The Chu army roared like crazy, facing enemies dozens of times their size, fighting desperately, and defending this place. The only barrier.

War is not an assassination, individual power seems so small at this moment, Qing Xia looked at the enemy army densely packed like locusts, firmly clenched the spear at her waist, her back was straight, like a standing monument.

She always knew that if there was such a day, she would die for Chu Li without hesitation.In the past, she just felt that she owed him, and just wanted to repay him in some other way, but at this moment, she suddenly felt a little inexplicable joy.She was very happy to think that she saved him, he could live and return to Nanchu safe and sound, she used her life to protect his country, from now on, there will never be those unspeakable worries blocking them In the meantime, her flesh and blood were sprinkled on this ups and downs of the desert, casting thousands of miles of rivers and mountains as strong as his iron barrel, and guarding his people forever. Would this kind of her be considered a special kind of love? ?
For eight years, they have been entangled and hurt each other, but they always stand up for each other in critical moments without hesitation.His indifference, his domineering, his scheming, his deceit, his stubbornness and stubbornness, his injuries and disappointments, and the years they have walked together, so many past events, can finally be open and aboveboard. It reverberated in her mind, she didn't have to be like before, just thinking about it, she felt that it was a blasphemy against that person.

Perhaps, from beginning to end, she has always loved him. Because of love, there will be hatred, disappointment, unwillingness, and more worry, fear, concern, guilt and reluctance. At the moment, the first person that reverberates in her mind is his face, his appearance with black armor, sword eyebrows and starry eyes.His love is too heavy, too thick, she can't respond, let alone speak, then let her die for him, and use this way to repay the unforgettable heart that can never be uttered.

Fate made her fall in love with two people one after the other, and it was destined to make her travel all over the world for one, and then go to hell for the other.

Stones, rolling logs, lime, and boiling water all came in handy. The Huns paved a road completely with their lives. Several gaps in the city wall were suddenly opened at the same time. The Huns crawled barebacked with wolf knives in their mouths. On the tower, the Chu army was defeated, and several people died in an instant.The exclamation sounded immediately, and the Xiongnu below also cheered in unison. Qingxia raised her eyebrows, and her figure instantly turned into a whirlwind. The most direct and practical method is to pierce the enemy's vitals with the spear and gun, the blood spurts out, the stench is threatening, people are like guns, guns are like people, and the shots are quick, like a miracle, with a few fingers, hundreds of guns are pierced, killing hundreds of people, White Armored General The spear was on the ground, the whirlwind closed, she looked at the front with a cold face, the blood flowed slowly from the center of her brow, but her face did not fluctuate at all.

Chu Jun was stunned, it was the first time for everyone to see Qingxia using martial arts, none of them thought that this seemingly weak, resourceful and decisive general was actually a master in martial arts.After a brief silence, loud cheers suddenly sounded.The soldiers of Southern Chu seemed to have taken a stimulant, and quickly returned to their respective fights, and the Huns suddenly suffered terribly.

Yan Hui put down the binoculars, curled up the corner of her mouth, turned her head and said with a faint smile: "It really is her, Nan'er, you have an opponent."

Major General Zhaonan looked calm, put on his helmet and put on his armor silently. He had just taken two steps when he suddenly turned around and said, "Father, swords have no eyes, please stay away from the battlefield."

Yan turned her head and smiled and said, "If you tell me to go, I won't go, so I don't have to dirty my new robe."

The mournful war drum sounded suddenly, and before the Huns had completely retreated from the battlefield, Xichuan’s army roared and pressed on. General Meng Jiao, who was sitting down by Qi Yan, said respectfully to Qi An: “Prince, Mo Zhaonan has sent troops, should we go up? ?”

Qi An rode on the horse, shook his head slowly, and said: "Don't be busy, we will go up after Xi Chuan retreats." After finishing speaking, Prince Dongqi smiled viciously, rubbed the telescope at the side, and sighed softly : "I didn't expect it was really you. You are really devoted to him. I just don't know, how long can you hold on if we continue to fight round after round like this?"

For three whole days, Qing Xia didn't close her eyes. The Chu army suffered few casualties. In fact, the opponent's attack was not violent, but they never stopped. The rounds of wheel battles took turns, and the Chu army was not given any time to rest, not even time to eat. It was just endless fighting, as if they were waiting for something.

Of course Qingxia knew what they were waiting for, if it wasn't for Mr. Liang who didn't know how to sneak out of the camp, she might have already left the city to fight to the death.

They were waiting, waiting for Chu Li to come in and save themselves, and they were also waiting, waiting for Chu Li to stay away from the desert and buy him time to leave.

The sky was getting darker, and the calm soldiers gradually retreated, and their momentum gradually weakened.Qingxia's silver-white armor has become blood-stained, and her stamina has been severely consumed by dripping water for three days. She divides the team into three teams and takes turns to fight. Each team has only 3000 people. It is very difficult to defend, but this It's better than endless battles with enemies.

The Huotou army carried a few big pots. Fortunately, Loulan is rich, and even though people died, things were still there, so they would not run out of food.
