After daylight.

Outside the city, in the enemy's formation.

Lun Zanqin, who is in his early forties, wearing a sheepskin jacket with the right hem, and half of the sleeves on his left arm. He has a thick black face and a few braids on his head. He is riding on a plateau war horse and looking at the army. The wreckage of siege equipment in the rear of the formation was in a mess. I didn't expect it at all. In just five or six days, the reinforcements from the Great Zhou Dynasty arrived.

This was a full three days earlier than the earliest arrival time he expected for reinforcements!

"Su Lie, I underestimated you, you are really amazing!"

Looking at the veteran general with gray beard and white hair standing at the top of the city, Lun Zanqin couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He was worthy of being the God of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although he was a veteran general in his seventies, he was still so experienced in using troops.

"but……"

His eyes turned cold and he murmured: "Do you think I will give up like this?! This time, I brought 130,000 troops. In order to capture this stone city, within five days, our army has already Twenty thousand casualties, even if there are tens of thousands more casualties, we will take back the Tufan Stone City from your hands!"

For thirty years, since losing the strategic point of Stone City, the Tufan Kingdom in the Western Region has been suppressed by the Great Zhou Dynasty. Its influence has been firmly restricted to this plateau area, unable to expand externally, and due to Tufan The west and south sides of Fan are surrounded by high mountains. The Gobi desert in the north and the fertile land in the east are all controlled by the Great Zhou. From a geostrategic perspective, the Great Zhou has almost become the only direction for Tufan to expand its territory. .

The Great Zhou Dynasty has never regarded Tufan as a "friendly neighbor". Even though the two countries have reconciled several times, over the years, the Great Zhou Dynasty has still launched many active attacks in all directions on the border between the two countries, building and controlling hundreds of strategic The key point is to almost completely cut off Tufan's fantasy of cutting off the flesh, bleeding and plundering Dazhou.

Of course, Tufan is not willing to live in the lonely and desolate snow-capped mountain plateau forever, staying at home and developing honestly. The warm land, the gorgeous city, the gorgeous humanities... The upper-class nobles of Tufan are envious and jealous. Who doesn’t want to have some fun?

In addition, the Zhou people were unable to survive on the plateau, and the Zhou army was unable to attack the plateau. Tufan was almost invincible. Even if they lost seven, drew, and won one in the war between the two countries, they only lost a few soldiers and slaves. With the huge gains from defeating the Great Zhou even once, any war risks and losses are worth bearing!

"kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill one Zhou man and you will immediately be freed from your status as a slave. Kill two Zhou men and reward one slave and one female slave respectively. You will be promoted to captain of ten!"

"Kill all the Zhou people and rob the Western Region!"

After the reinforcements of the Zhou Dynasty entered Stone City, the offensive of the Tufan army did not decrease at all. Instead, the Tufan army, with 80% of its soldiers being slaves, promised various heavy rewards. The morale of the Tufan army soared, and the slaves saw hope. A very terrifying fighting force broke out.

The small stone city, under the attack of twenty times the overwhelming enemy force, is like a small rock in the strong wind and waves, and there is a risk of being beaten into powder at any time...

"kill!"

"Drive the enemy down!"

"猌石, 猌石, we've run out of 猌石, are there any more 猌石 in the weapons arsenal?"

"Someone is climbing up here, and it's almost unstoppable!"

"Kill!", "Ah!", "Ah..."

At the top of the Stone City, the parapets, bricks, and steps were stained with countless bloodstains, and screams were heard one after another. As they climbed up the stairs, the Tufan soldiers who climbed to the top of the city engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the defenders.

Because they were fighting in a plateau and low-oxygen area, and after five days of rapid marches, the exhausted Zhou soldiers could only exert about half of their combat power. After the defensive equipment such as stones, crossbow arrows, and kerosene in the city were used up, they could only Standing at the top of the city, they hacked down the Tufan soldiers who kept climbing up the city wall with machetes in their hands and a ferocious look on their faces.

The battle was extremely fierce. Soldiers from both countries were not afraid of death. They fought in a melee, stabbing each other's bodies with their weapons. They hugged each other with red eyes, strangled each other's necks, dug at each other's flesh, and both screamed and rolled down the city wall, dying together. Scenes are happening everywhere.

On the highest stone tower of the city wall.

"36, 37, 38...57, 58, 59...70!"

A young man in white robes and leather armor, holding a five-stone longbow, fired arrows continuously, hitting the vital points of enemy soldiers within a hundred steps. Those who were hit by arrows were mostly middle-level and high-level generals and strong warriors in the enemy army. Each arrow pierced one of the eyes, ears, mouth, heart, and neck, killing him instantly.

"Good cum!"

The young man's archery skills attracted a round of applause.

"20, 21, 22... 31, I am too old to be able to pull it off. I can't compare to you young people."

The red-faced and panting old general threw the stiff bow into the hands of the guards on the side. He was still unconvinced, but when he saw that the young man beside him had achieved more than twice as many achievements as himself, he was exhausted. The old general could only sigh that he was old.

At another glance, he saw that more and more enemy troops were swarming up the city, and there was a faint tendency to gain an advantage. The old general frowned, and immediately ordered: "Order the second city defense team to go up to the city to defend, and the first city defense team." Withdraw! The reserve team will carry the wounded down!"

There are nearly 5,000 garrison troops in Stone City. The old general divided them into three garrison teams and a reserve team. The three garrison teams took turns to rest and defend. The reserve team was responsible for treating the wounded, making fires for cooking, carrying weapons, etc. At the last moment of the work, the reserve team had to take up weapons, go to the top of the city, and fight the enemy until the last moment.

"Kill, drive the Tupan savage away!"

After the second defensive team rushed to the top of the city, the defensive force, which received strong support, quickly gained a clear advantage and killed the Tufan barbarians who had climbed to the top of the city. They retreated steadily. Some Tufan barbarians were even killed. He was forced to despair and jumped off a city wall dozens of meters high, falling to pieces.

"Haha, that's eighty-seven!"

In the middle of the city defense team, there was a big man from the Black Tower holding a huge mace stick. His face was covered with blood, and he grinned widely. He swung the hundred-jin stick in his hand without any slowness at all, and he slammed it down every time. With one strike, the weapons and enemies standing in front of them were flattened or shattered. In front of the black tower man, no one could withstand the second blow. He would sometimes sweep the weapon in a semicircle with his big stick, and several people would vomit blood and fly backwards.

After clearing all the enemies on the city wall, the black tower man discovered that there was a crack in the female wall, and enemies were still popping up. He rushed to the crack in three or two steps, and knocked to death more than twenty Tufan warriors one by one with a stick. , no one of the enemy troops dared to take the lead anymore, and had to retreat hastily.

"Oh oh oh~"

There was cheering on the top of the city.

"He is truly a warrior! On the battlefield, this person can defeat a hundred people. In the midst of thousands of troops, he can kill generals and seize flags. What's the name of this person? I guess he's called Li, Li?"

The old general gave a big thumbs up! Trying to think back, he found that he had forgotten the name of this big man who had lifted a thousand-jin stone lock in front of him. At first, he thought that this man was just stronger and there was nothing special about him. Unexpectedly, today, In the city defense battle, his performance was so eye-catching that he could even defend a twenty-foot section of the city wall by himself.

"Old General, his name is Li Dazui. He has a huge appetite. He can feed fifty people in one meal. We all call him Dazui."

Zhou Ming introduced the old general.

"Meals for fifty people?"

The old general was startled and opened his eyes wide. "When I was young, I could only feed twenty people at most. I was called the Jade-faced Little Overlord... With fifty people, I could only feed the legendary Overlord Xiang Yu." Is that so? Big mouth, big mouth, that mouth is really not small..."

Looking at Li Dazui, who was carrying a big stick and being guarded by the soldiers, standing there smiling innocently, what impressed the old general the most was his iconic big mouth.

Turning his head again, he looked at Zhou Ming, who was of medium height and had a gentle appearance, and recalled how he had just shot and killed nearly a hundred enemies... The veteran general, who had spent his life fighting in the army and was used to seeing all kinds of grand scenes, found that he was getting more and more confused. I can't see through the world anymore, and I think: It seems that I am really old. Sooner or later, this world will belong to these young people.

…

After the first day of the difficult defensive battle, in the next three days, the Tufan army outside the city had no intention of withdrawing. Instead, they increased the scale and intensity of the siege, launching five waves of crazy attacks day and night. .

In the largest wave of attacks, Lunzanqin dispatched all the elites he could mobilize, a total of 30,000 people! Breaking through from the three easiest directions to break through, they fought for a whole day and night, and came close to the broken city many times. However, the more than 30,000 people lost less than one-third of the city. The Tufan army was still unable to capture the city. The defenders may be left with a remnant city with less than a thousand people.

Early morning on the fifth day.

He ordered craftsmen to repair more than twenty trebuchets and aimed them at the crumbling city gate tower. Lun Zanqin, whose eyes were red with blood and his face was crazy, saw that the city gate was completely blown down, raised his whip again and launched the attack. The last wave of attack.

At this time, General Su had to gather all the defense forces in the city. With less than a thousand soldiers, he stood on the ruins of the city gate, holding weapons and fighting with the tens of thousands of Tufan barbarians who were rushing towards him. .

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Standing in the middle of the queue, Zhou Ming used up all his arrows, took a silver spear, and joined the melee ranks. In the military formation, the silver spear was like lightning, stabbing out bloody flowers, one after another. The enemy who had not yet come close to him fell down clutching the shocking blood hole on his neck... He no longer counted how many enemies he had killed. At this moment, like everyone else, he only had one thought, which was to kill! Kill all the enemies close to you until there is no one in front of you.

Facing an enemy force that was ten times his own and killing them endlessly, Zhou Ming felt that his physical strength was gradually declining. It was impossible not to have a trace of fear in his heart. But when he saw the old general with silver hair and blood all over his body, he As he shouted repeatedly and killed the enemy selflessly, the fear in Zhou Ming's heart completely disappeared, and he accelerated the efficiency of harvesting lives in his hands!

He thought secretly: I have killed more than five hundred enemies in the past few days. I will kill another five hundred today until I reach a thousand kills!

Fortunately, Li Dazui, who was standing aside and had a silly personality, knew what his mission was and followed closely beside Zhou Ming. With the more than 80 kilograms of Qinglong sword in his hand, he slashed and slashed to death in large swaths of enemies. , so scared that no one dares to get close. Once the situation goes bad, he will immediately fight his way out of the battlefield and lead the "boss" away from the battlefield.

"Beep~beep~beep~"

"Come on!"

"attack!"

Suddenly, a clear bugle sound and fierce shouts of killing came from the north.

It turned out that just when the remnants of the Stone City army were approaching their limit and could no longer resist, more than 40,000 Ganzhou troops finally arrived. After the attack horn sounded, five thousand elite troops first destroyed all the food and grass camps of the Tufan army, followed by three The 15,000-strong army was divided into three groups, like three sharp knives, and attacked the Tufan Central Army's formation, which was in a messy formation and numbered less than 30,000 people. They killed the army's morale and collapsed, and the whole front was defeated.

"Zhou Guo's reinforcements are here!"

"Run!"

"Run!"

The nearly 10,000 Tufan troops who besieged Stone City were so frightened that they retreated completely when they saw reinforcements from the Zhou Kingdom coming.

The old general seized this opportunity, led the less than 600 troops in the city, went out of the city and chased for five miles, and forced the landing of more than 5,000 enemy troops.

"Those who offend my great Zhou Tianwei will be punished no matter how far away they are!"

Standing on a hilltop, I saw the remnants of Lunzanqin's army who had escaped several miles away and could only see the hurriedly fleeing background. I felt suffocated in my heart. It was a pity that Zhou Ming, who was not the leader of the enemy, was not caught. Able to roar at those retreating figures.

"Those who offend my great Zhou Tianwei will be punished no matter how far away they are!"

This roar caused dozens of Zhou soldiers on the side to also roar.

"Anyone who offends our great Zhou Tianwei will be punished no matter how far away!!"

"Anyone who offends our great Zhou Tianwei will be punished no matter how far away!!!"

The words resounded across the vast battlefield, and the cries became louder and louder, becoming more and more uniform, like the roar of a lion and the roar of a tiger, shaking the valley, and the echoes echoed dozens of miles away.

Hearing this sound, more than 20,000 Tufan prisoners of war trembled in fear, fell to their knees in large groups, and fled to Lunzanqin, which was ten miles away. They spit out a mouthful of blood and almost fell off their horses.

…

In the Battle of Stone City, the Zhou Dynasty won a great victory, killing 60,000 Tufan soldiers and capturing 20,000 prisoners, at the cost of more than 8,000 Tufan soldiers. The Tufan military god Lun Praise was praised, his reputation was ruined, and he tasted an unforgettable battle. After the great defeat, he was hidden and unused after returning to the court. Ten years later, he was reactivated and became a huge threat to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
