Chapter 326 Xiao Yun: Build the Great Wall with the corpses of the Beijue!
The morning light is like fire, spreading its solemn red light to the entire earth.
The East Territory is different from the North Territory. Although there are four distinct seasons here, the winter is not cold.
But this year, the severe cold in the north seemed to have spread to all parts of Anguo. Even the east, where it rarely snowed, had several heavy snowfalls this year.
There was a layer of snow two fingers thick on the branches. On the ground, the snow was like fine sand, and on it was a layer of golden leaves. The yellow and white intertwined, creating a magnificent beauty.
It should have been a beautiful sight, but no one appreciated it.
The dark army of Beijue was like a giant black python, entrenched in the entire mountain range, stretching for dozens of miles with no end in sight.
There were the stormtroopers carrying thick shields and holding spears, the archers riding horses and carrying bows and arrows, the cavalrymen riding horses and holding long swords, and the endless infantry in the rear...
Everywhere there were shining spears, fluttering flags, and crowds of heads.
With every step they took, the whole earth seemed to tremble.
The 600,000-strong Beijue army finally... came!
Now we are less than five miles away from them!
They had previously followed the Third Prince's arrangement and destroyed the ferry bridge over the Mou River in advance, and used kerosene to melt the ice on the river, but it only delayed their journey for two days.
"General Tang, they are coming!"
A soldier stared blankly at the dark army of Beijue with his eyes wide open.
The Eastern Border is connected to Chiyan and Beijue. Even when Chiyan and Beijue were fighting, it did not affect here.
There had not been a war here for a long time, and the people of the East were always gentle and friendly, so those soldiers who had never actually been on the battlefield were stunned when they saw the red armor of the Iron Army on the opposite side.
General Tang stood on the high city wall, looked at them and shouted:
"Everyone on alert!"
After saying this, he looked at his followers and said:
"Is there any news from the Third Prince?"
"We've lost contact since three days ago. General, the Third Prince won't be coming, will he?"
The enemy had an army of 600,000, while they only had 200,000.
Including the 30,000 troops transferred by the third prince, there are only 170,000 troops now.
In terms of numbers, the other side has an absolute advantage.
"No, the Third Prince will definitely come. I believe in him."
At this moment, hundreds of guards riding on war horses surrounded a low-key and luxurious carriage and arrived at the south gate of Dongling City.
The soldiers guarding the city stopped them.
After the visitor showed his badge, they all knelt on the ground and said respectfully:
"See the Third Prince."
The person in the sedan hummed softly, and the carriage sped away in front of them.
The journey was originally supposed to take twenty days, but they traveled day and night and compressed it into twelve days.
"The Third Prince is here, the Third Prince is here..."
The messenger exclaimed and shouted, and when the soldiers heard his voice, their eyes began to burn, as if they had found their backbone.
"Where is he? Go and meet him quickly."
Just as General Tang was about to pick up Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun had already stepped onto the city wall surrounded by the crowd.
The cold wind blew up his long black fur coat. The man was wearing a dark cloud-embroidered brocade robe. His long, smooth silver hair was half-tied up with a jade hairpin. His eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and he was extremely handsome.
The dark phoenix eyes were as deep as thick ink that could not be dissolved, cold and harsh, making people dare not look directly at them.
The man stood tall and straight, like a sword drawn from its sheath, able to break through all obstacles.
The fingers of his hands hanging by his sides were slender and white, like silver and snow, and noble and extraordinary.
"Meet the Third Prince!"
"Meet the Third Prince!"
"Greetings to the Third Prince..."
The soldiers shouted, louder than ever, unable to hide their excitement.
Xiao Yan responded and walked to the observation point. He looked at the dark mass of Beijue's army and listened to General Tang's report:
"As the Third Prince expected, the troops led by Beijue are none other than Yuan Liangrongjun. They are now less than five miles away from us."
Xiao Yan turned the jade ring on his hand and said:
"Time is enough. Call all the generals to gather at the observation deck."
All the generals were already on full alert, and it took only a quarter of an hour for them to assemble.
Xiao Yan stood on an observation platform one step higher, looking at the soldiers following him, and spoke in a low voice, getting straight to the point:
"Everyone, the Northern Jue army is divided into two groups. A million troops are attacking from the north. Under our city are 600,000 elite soldiers of the Northern Jue. The Northern Jue is just a wild land, and this year there is a snow disaster. In this battle, they have used the strength of the whole country to attack Anguo and seize Anguo's resources and cities!
My father has led an army of 800,000 to support the northern border, and the 300,000 reinforcements led by Marquis Xuanping are also on the way to the eastern border.
We, Anguo, have been silent for too long. Even a small Northern Jue barbarian wants to divide us up. Other countries are also eyeing this battle covetously, waiting for us to show signs of fatigue so that they can pounce on us and divide us up.
So we must win this battle! And we must win beautifully!
Because we are not only fighting against the Northern Jue people, but we are also fighting for the people of the world to see. We want the people of the world to see the strength of our Anguo, and to see that our Anguo cavalry can break through the gates of any country!
We will use the corpses of the Northern Jue to build the Great Wall to deter those who attempt to divide and invade Anguo, and to protect our Anguo for a hundred years!
In this battle, all soldiers must obey my orders, trust me, and obey me. I will lead you to victory and live and die with you! "
The wind was blowing hard, and all the soldiers' eyes were filled with passion.
"Long live An Guo, long live His Majesty! Fight! Fight! We will win! We will win! We will win!"
General Tang shouted, and then all the soldiers responded with a loud voice:
"We must win! We must win! We must win!"
Looking at the excited crowd, Xiao Yan turned around, picked up the command flag, waved it vigorously, and said loudly:
"All soldiers, listen up! Prepare for battle! Sacrifice the blood of the Northern Jue people as a sacrifice to the flag!"
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
The sound resounded through the sky and reached the ears of the Northern Jue army that was heading towards Dongling City.
Rong Jun, who was sitting on the general's throne, wearing a tiger-skin coat, a wolf-tooth headband, strong features, and a pair of deep blue eyes, sneered disdainfully when he heard this:
"It seems that they can't wait to die. Soldiers, listen to my order, speed up your pace, and tear down that annoying city wall within three days!"
