Chapter 25

In Bafang.

The guarding generals gathered in one room and argued fiercely.

“The invaders are coming. Why is the reinforcement not here yet?!” The Rider General Jia Muqi p.i.s.sed off with vessels on his forehead clearly protruding.

The Coach General Gao You also looked annoyed, “Isn"t the d.a.m.n young boy afraid of death penalty of his whole family if he arrived late and made us lose the battle?!!”

“Old Gao, he"s a duke~~~” Yu Bin said in an ironic tone.

“Isn"t he really scared away by that letter?” Someone doubted.

Li Shenghu sneered, “That"ll be great. Anyway, he could do nothing but standing in our way.” He pulled the face, “We can"t count on a relief troop. It"s all up to us whether we get through the war!!”

“If we managed to guard it, we"ll be heroes of Daqing! If not…nothing, just lose our lives!”

The generals shouted out loud in unison, “Guard Bafang! Be with it or die!”

Tianbin"s million-strong army was looming, with flags enough to cover the sky, tall steeds, dazzling weapons, and the high spirits and determination to conquer Daqing.

On the newly built observation platform, Tuoba Muhong was glancing at his own army, satisfied.

In an instant, his mind filled with the feeling of possessing unlimited power: With invincible power in my hand, with this enormous army, I"ll bring down Bafang which is known as a natural moat. I"ll step on the fertile land of Daqing and make it the granary of Tianbin. We"ll make the d.a.m.n Daqing people our slaves and build a mountain of the bodies of those who dare to resist, upon which to create a Tianbin Dynasty that will never fall!

As long as I bring down Bafang!!

Then, our army will sweep along with irresistible forces like a rolling river!

The Battle of Yinghui (Lit. Usher in Glory), as known later, was kicked off on the order of Tuoba Muhong, the First Commander of Tianbin—

Drum were beaten loud as thunders. Thousands of sacrifice squads held sharp weapons, swarmed up with ladders, and started their hideous climbing!

The cras.h.i.+ng carts. .h.i.t on the city gate again and again, creating noise louder than everything else but the thick murderousness spurting out of everybody!

The boiling oil prepared by Bafang began to splash down, and numerous Tianbin soldiers fell off the ladders, with a miserable squeal, hands covering their faces. They either died from falling or rolled on the ground in unbearable pain, face deformed completely.

The flesh and blood burred together, emitting a strange and disgusting smell of a mixture of oil and smoke. Along with the b.l.o.o.d.y picture, it made some newbies couldn"t help but to throw up.

“Hold On brothers!!” Gao You knocked down a Tianbin soldier.

No need to be reminded, at this moment, everyone had one single faith in their mind—guard the city with their lives!

“A desperate battle!” With sneers, Tuoba Muhong waved his whip, “My bros! Daqing is over. Let"s take this city!!”


Tianbin started a new around of attack. The crazy enemies and the smell of salty blood triggered the madness hidden in the bones of Bafang defenders.

Li Shenghu was bathed in blood, “Gao, it"s wrong!! The city will be taken if it goes on like this!!!”

Gao You pulled a sullen face, his teeth rattling from gritting, “Let"s do it! Open the gate and fight against them. Probably we could fight a b.l.o.o.d.y way out!!”

Gao You volunteered, “I"m going!!!”

Li Shenghu, “You stay. I go!” He paused, “I"m a better martial artist than you!”

Gao You"s face twitched.

This might be an eternal goodbye!

His throat seemed to be under a piece of iron. He could only say, “Bro, take care!”

Li Shenghu nodded heavily!

He turned away and shouted, “Men, let"s go to kill those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!!”

“Hoooo!!!!” At once, dozens of thousands of well-equipped soldiers gathered around him!

With glowing weapons, the group of men rushed to the gate. Looking at them, Gao You found his heart beating hard. If possible, he"d like to take the place of Li Shenghu!

As the saying goes, meeting on a narrow path, who dares wins. At this point, no scheme or strategy was applicable. Who was more courageous and fierce with sharp swords would win!

At the entrance of the city, blood splattered and muddled with dirt, and people and horses dashed and were knocked down. Shouts of killing, horse hissing, painful screams and weapon clanking mixed together as two teams of riders confronted. The scene was as chaotic as a pot of paste that could hardly be stirred.

Every man became red-eyes and knew nothing but killing. Only after killing all other living creatures could they survive. Some were chopped off half of their heads, and milky brains burst in the air. Some got their limed cut off, and the thick plasma soaked the armors into red. The soldier chopping others in this second might be chopped into pieces in the next second and trampled by steeds into a paste of meat!

Gao You on the gate tower saw clearly. If there was an army inserted into the enemy on the right wing, things could be returned around!

A Tianbin soldier, losing half of his head, still deadly locked Li Shenghu with his arms and wished him death too! Li Shenghu cut off one of the arm but then was kicked away from behind!

He rolled on the ground and saw a ruthless face of a Tianbin soldier right before him!

Am I going to die?

Li Shenghu looked up at the sky. There was a group of geese flying southwards.

A howling cut into air!

Dazzling light!

Blood spattering all around!

An arrow penetrated deeply into the throat of that Tianbin soldier and filled his eyes with disbelief…

“General! Aid is here! Aid is here! Daqing"s reinforcements arrive!”

The overjoyed faces of the soldiers made Li Shenghu relived. Fang Junqian really came.

The Tianbin army on the right began to mess and barely maintained the original orderly formation. Finally, in the dark wave of Tianbin troops surfaced a sprinting silver light which instantly expanded like a snow slide and immediately swallowed the dark Tianbin troops… Fang Junqian"s army broke through the blockade of Tianbin.

Fang Junqian in the exquisite armor took the lead and rode at a high speed all the way to Bafang. Many years later, Li Shenghu still remembered the silver among the redness, like a flouris.h.i.+ngly rising morning sun…

The Tianbin soldiers, at the sight of it, were freaked out before the fight started. They even watched blankly at Fang Junqian galloping right to the city gate without stopping him.

Li Shenghu was about to take off his helmet to show his grat.i.tude, but Fang Junqian gave him a wickedly charming smile and said lightly, “You owe me one.” His red scarf flew in the air.

Before Li Shenghu realized what was happening, Fang Junqian already galloped away and pa.s.sed him. The divine-like steed hissed and clanked away. By one leaping, the youth with the red scarf disappeared into the soldiers…

At this time, the vanguard cavalries of the half-million Daqing army also rushed over to the gate and wasted no second in shattering down the remaining of the Tianbin troops.

Then, rus.h.i.+ng to the city tower, the fifty thousand vanguards stopped the horses and roared from their chests, “Invincible Bafang!”

Later, the same roaring came from the rest of the reinforcements in the distance, “Invincible Bafang!"
