"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 874
In the capital of Dongjiang Province, a fierce battle is going on.
"Kill!"
Amidst the roar of mountains and tsunami, the rebel army shouted like a tide, and rushed towards this city full of corpses and blood.
Countless ladders, siege vehicles, and ramming cones are slowly approaching the city wall.
The rebels were attacking like a wave, with a dilapidated battle flag on the top of the city, blood-stained soldiers of the Southern Army rushed to the battle position urgently under the yelling of the officer, preparing for a new round of fighting.
The Southern Army seems to be strong and strong, but in fact, since the death of the Southern King Luo Mingyuan, the Southern Army has fallen apart.
Although Luo Jing, the new Southern King conferred by the imperial court, is the son of the former Southern King, his prestige is far from enough to convince the public.
The generals of the Southern Army who held military power were on their own side, and they didn't pay attention to him, the new Southern King, at all.
The rebel leader Yang Hao led the army all the way to attack the city, and the rebel army under his command also grew extremely rapidly in Dongjiang province.
After capturing the southern part of Dongjiang Province, the ambitious Yang Hao marched northward to further encroach on the territory of the Southern Army.
Luo Jing, the new Southern King, led the army to fight fiercely with the rebels. Unfortunately, the fighting power of the rebels was so amazing that they retreated steadily.
Now nearly 200,000 rebels have surrounded the capital of Dongjiang Province like an iron barrel, and the army led by Luo Jing has become a turtle in an urn.
The rebels launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on the capital of Dongjiang Province. Although the Southern Army resisted desperately, the defense line was still crumbling.
"Go back to your position!"
"Archers step forward!"
The black rebels rushed forward again. The soldiers of the Southern Army at the top of the city, amidst the hoarse shouts of the officers, held their swords and damaged shields tightly, guarding their positions. Their faces were tired and their eyes were empty.
The brutal fighting has exhausted these Confederate soldiers, and their only thought now is to fight for another day of life.
"Your Highness, the city is dangerous, you should go down."
Seeing the huge nest cart slowly approaching, a general of the southern army persuaded the new southern king Luo Jing to leave the dangerous city wall.
After all, the city wall will soon become a battlefield for both sides to fight, and they have no time to take care of Luo Jing's safety.
"General Zhang, if you hold on for another day, reinforcements should arrive."
Southern King Luo Jing looked at the haggard general, and solemnly explained the matter.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, as long as I am alive, the rebels will never enter the city!"
Although the general of the southern army looked exhausted, he was still full of fighting spirit, showing an unyielding aura all over his body.
Southern King Luo Jing said a few days ago that the reinforcements were coming soon, but they never saw the reinforcements coming. He no longer takes Luo Jing's words seriously.
The reason why he is still leading the army to continue to defend the city is because he does not want the rebels to harm the people in the city.
The military discipline of their southern army is not very good, but at least they still abide by the bottom line of morality.
But the rebels outside the city are different. They are a group of lunatics and killing machines.
The previous cities that were captured by the rebels had become ruins without leaving any traces, and were abruptly destroyed.
The rebels are cold-blooded and bloodthirsty. They are not only extremely fierce to the enemy, but also to their own people.
It is precisely because they know the bad deeds of the rebels that the Southern Army who defended the city fought to the death and did not surrender, because sometimes they would be killed by the brutal rebels who surrendered, and their heads would be taken to claim credit.
"Brothers! Behind us are our parents, wives and children. We fought against the rebels!"
After Southern King Luo Jing left the city wall, the general of the Southern Army who was guarding the provincial capital also drew his saber and shouted!
"Fight!"
"Fight with the rebels!"
The southern army with torn armor let out a low growl from the throat of the city, and their eyes were full of determination.
The continuous fighting has exhausted the arrows, hot oil and logs stored in the city head.
Facing the rebel soldiers who climbed up densely along the ladder, the southern army defending the city could only guard the crenel, ready to fight in close combat.
A rebel soldier poked his head out from the crenel, the bright knife light flashed, blood gushed like a fountain, and a hugeThe head flew out high.
Another rebel grabbed the battlements with both hands and tried to leap up the walls.
"Pfft!"
The sharp saber was cut down, and the hands of the rebels holding the battlements were cut off in one fell swoop.
"ah!"
The rebel soldier whose hands had been cut off screamed in pain, fell from a height onto the city wall, and fell into the pile of corpses below the city.
A steady stream of rebels climbed up the ladder. They were endless. The soldiers of the Southern Army cut their swords and their arms were numb, but the rebels continued to surge up.
When the rebel army climbing up the ladder was firmly blocked by the southern army, more than a dozen huge siege nest vehicles also slowly approached the city wall.
The General of the Southern Army concentrated all the archers he could muster to attack, but to no avail, they couldn't stop the nest cart from approaching.
These nest vehicles are almost as high as the city wall. As long as they get close to the city wall, the rebel soldiers on it can jump directly onto the city wall, which poses a great threat to the city wall defense.
However, the southern army lacked effective counter weapons, so that there was no way to stop the approach of the nest car.
Soon the nest cart approached the city wall, and amidst the rumbling sound, the planks fell and rested on the city wall.
"Kill!"
The rebel soldiers with bloodthirsty eyes on the nest wagon howled like a beast, and rushed to the top of the city along the wooden planks.
And under the nest car, countless rebels are climbing the ladder to the top of the nest car, and then rushing up the city wall along the passage.
"Kill them back!"
The general of the Southern Army personally led the brothers of the elite Skeleton Battalion to fight back, trying to repel the rebels who jumped into the city.
It's a pity that these rebels are also the fierce soldiers of the elite Tiger and Leopard Battalion. A brutal fight broke out between the two sides at the top of the city.
The Skeleton Battalion of the Southern Army has experienced continuous battle losses, and now there is no one in ten.
The soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Battalion of the rebel army continued to select elite soldiers from the brutal fighting, not only expanding in scale, but also improving their combat effectiveness.
Although both sides are elite troops, they are no longer the same in terms of numbers and fighting will.
Facing the fierce offensive of the rebel Tiger and Leopard Battalion, the soldiers of the Southern Army's elite Skeleton Battalion fell in a pool of blood one by one, and soon there was a mountain of corpses on the top of the city, and the two sides fought in the pile of corpses.
As time went by, fewer and fewer Confederate soldiers could stand, while more and more rebel soldiers rushed to the top of the city.
"Your Highness, I have tried my best!"
Looking around, there are vicious and bloodthirsty rebels everywhere, and the general of the southern army is also unwilling to cry up to the sky.
"It's an official!"
Seeing this Southern Army general in torn armor, the rebel soldiers jumped up excitedly, wanting this meritorious service.
But before they rushed forward, the general of the southern army had already wiped his own neck with a saber, and his eyes were wide open when he was dying.
An excited rebel went up and cut off his head, holding it up high.
"I beheaded"
"Puchi!"
But before he finished speaking, another rebel with bloodthirsty eyes stabbed him into the body and snatched his head.
The soldiers of the rebel army were cruel and bloodthirsty, and they all wanted to compete for military merit. For this reason, they quickly fought here, and the fighting stopped until an officer arrived. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
