I really didn't want to burn it.

Since Attila had already been exposed, Mash thought it wouldn't hurt for her to reveal some of the information.

But Mashu wasn't going to say another word.

She confessed everything while the other heroic spirits on her side were still in the shadows; that truly constituted betrayal of her predecessors.

Seeing that Mashu didn't speak, DD gave Leon a look.

Li Ang responded by shaking his head slightly.

These people from Chaldea are the type who respond better to gentle persuasion than force; forcing Mash to speak will only backfire.

Since Mashu was willing to answer her question just now, it at least shows that the other party's hostility is not as great as it was at the beginning.

In that case, continuing the softening offensive and gradually breaking down the other party's psychological defenses is the best approach.

After he finally managed to "win over" Mashu through persistent pleading, she was still willing to answer any questions he had.

Yes, Li Ang meant to become friends with the other person, nothing more.

[Haha, men.]

"Hey system, why can you send voice messages? You can only display text."

Li Ang's face darkened.

【hehe. 】

The system kindly repeated the reading again.

Li Ang's lips twitched twice, but in the end he decided to ignore the taunts from the mourning system.

Having been together for hundreds of years, Li Ang had long been used to the system's sarcastic remarks towards him.

If they had to argue every time, Li Ang would have run out of saliva long ago.

"Ah! The Xiongnu are attacking the city!"

On the city wall, a soldier suddenly roared.

Li Ang and the others immediately leaned over the city wall and looked down. They saw a dark shadow gradually growing larger in the distance.

Immediately, on the city wall, each soldier performed their duties: some drew their swords, while others nocked arrows and lay prone at the breach.

"Cao Shen".

Li Ang shouted loudly.

"The general is here!"

"You will command the battle! I'm handing over the troops I brought to you!"

"what?"

Cao Can was stunned for a moment; he hadn't expected Li Ang to hand over command to him.

The Imperial Advisor was clearly the person with the highest status at the scene.

"Cao Shen, why aren't you making arrangements yet?"

Li Ang glared fiercely at Cao Can, who was filled with confusion.

"Here!"

Cao Shen quickly accepted the order and began to command the army.

Li Ang, along with DD and Mashu, stood at the edge of the city wall, quietly watching Cao Can's arrangements.

Li Ang knew very well that Cao Can had been fighting against the Xiongnu army here for so many days, and he had more experience in dealing with those monsters than he did.

Since I was new to the area, I decided to observe this siege battle to determine the strength and attack patterns of the monsters.

Soon, the Xiongnu army approached Yunzhong City.

At this point, they could be seen clearly even without binoculars.

"Huh, what's that?"

Mashu's eyes looked strange.

"That's a grain cart, used to protect against arrows."

DD replied coldly.

The Xiongnu army actually attached a thick wooden plank to the front of the grain carts, then linked dozens of grain carts together with hemp ropes, and pushed them from behind, slowly approaching Yunzhong.

"awesome……"

Mashu let out a sigh, seemingly praising the wisdom of the ancients.

"There's nothing special about it. The Xiongnu have been fighting against the Qin for decades, and these are just routine operations."

DD explained to Mash in a defiant tone, "Besides, it's not like we're without ways to fight back."

Upon hearing this, Mashu immediately snapped out of her daze and saw that the Qin archers around her had already aimed their arrows upwards.

"The entire army is on alert!"

Cao Can roared, reminding everyone that the real battle had begun.

"Listen to my orders!"

Cao Shen drew his long sword.

Under the command of their general, all the soldiers drew their bows to their fullest extent.

"put!"

Cao Shen drank again.

Arrows rained down on the Xiongnu army from above.

Mash, who lacked an understanding of ancient warfare, was somewhat confused.

How much power does an arrow shot into the sky have?

But she immediately understood just how powerful this shooting method was.

Tuk-tuk-tuk.

To Mashu's disbelief, only a handful of arrows struck the wooden planks at the front of the strange grain cart.

More arrows struck the Xiongnu soldiers behind the grain carts, and many of them were pinned to the ground and killed.

However, the Xiongnu army did not retreat. They ignored their comrades lying on the ground groaning and continued to push the grain carts forward.

Along the way, Xiongnu soldiers were constantly hit by arrows, but others quickly replaced them.

By the time the grain carts reached the vicinity of the city wall, the Xiongnu army had already left behind a field of corpses.

But the brutal war had only just begun.

A special army composed of kobolds, leopards, and goblins leaped over the supply wagons and charged toward the city walls.

Like monkeys climbing trees, they scaled the city walls and turned upwards at incredible speed.

Meanwhile, the centaur army ran back and forth along the city walls while firing arrows upwards in retaliation.

Cao Can was already used to the monsters' behavior, and he immediately dispatched some archers to shoot at the monsters on the city wall.

However, these wall-climbing guys were exceptionally agile, skillfully dodging arrows as they climbed upwards, and soon reached the top of the city wall.

Cao Shen beheaded the first dog-headed man who jumped up with a single sword stroke.

But even more monsters came to the top of the wall.

"Attack! Drive them away!"

Cao Can led his soldiers to charge towards the monsters, and the two sides engaged in a chaotic battle.

The Xiongnu's thinking was very simple.

Attack! Attack! As long as we capture Yunzhong!

The Qin army shared the same idea.

Get those sons of bitches out of here!

The Hunnic army, mainly composed of kobolds, was individually very strong and preferred to fight alone.

The Qin soldiers worked in groups of two to three, coordinating their attacks on the monsters.

Although the two armies have different fighting styles, they both have only one thought in mind: kill the other!

Suddenly, chaos erupted on the walls of Yunzhong City, filled with the agonizing cries of those on the verge of death.

"This……"

Mashu's mouth dropped open.

Possessed by a Heroic Spirit and becoming a Demi-Servant, she possesses combat skills far exceeding those of ordinary people, but this knowledge does not extend to large-scale warfare.

Before today, Mashu only had a vague impression of ancient warfare such as siege warfare.

Therefore, she was a little overwhelmed by what was happening on the battlefield.

The soldiers who were just laughing and talking a moment ago are now corpses lying on the ground.

Li Ang and DD, who were originally standing with her, had already rushed up and started fighting the kobolds.

As a seasoned time traveler, Li Ang was already a battle-hardened warrior.

Not to mention DD, who captured Mashu alive, her personal combat strength had already reached the ceiling of the pre-mutation Qin world.

Otherwise, DD wouldn't have become the Qin State Preceptor's personal bodyguard.

The master and servant duo unleashed their full power on the city wall, reaping lives like mowing grass.

"Should I run away?"

Mash was caught in a dilemma after realizing that no one was watching her anymore.

Attila was waiting for her not far from Cloud City. With the strength of a Servant, Mash could escape simply by jumping off the city wall.

However, Mash hesitated.

At that moment, a leopard-man launched a sneak attack on the three-person team closest to Mash.

"careful!"

Before her brain could process it, Mashu's body acted first.

She yanked the ambushed soldier away and slammed her shoulder into the leopard man's shoulder.

"Ow!"

The leopard-man let out a defiant cry and turned to attack Mash.

Mashu instinctively tried to raise her hand, only to find that her hands were empty.

She then realized that Li Ang had confiscated her shield.

"Oops!"

Mashu let out a scream.

"Mash, catch!"

Seeing this, Li Ang, who was not far away, pulled out a dagger and threw it over.

Without hesitation, Mashu took the dagger and immediately stabbed the leopard-man in the body.

The "?" symbol on the dagger hilt emitted a dazzling blue light.

Instantly, the area below the leopard man's neck was covered by a layer of ice.

Boom!

With a heavy thud, the frozen leopard-man fell to the ground.

But the leopard-man did not give up. It opened its mouth and bit at Mash, as if it would rather die than give up a piece of Mash's flesh.

Before Mashu could even scream, DD, who had arrived in time, had already slashed off the head of the leopard-man that was about to pounce on her.

"Thank you."

Mashu expressed her gratitude to DD.

DD nodded and pulled Mashu up from the ground.
