    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 812

    There were frequent wars in Yunshan Province, and the capital of Pingyong Prefecture also changed hands constantly in the repeated struggles between the Southern Army, Qinghe Army and the rebel army.

    At this moment, although the city wall of Pingyong Prefecture has been repaired and reinforced by the Qinghe Army, the blood-stained city wall and the arrows embedded in the city wall still tell the story of the tragic battle that has been experienced here.

    At this moment, the sky over this blood-soaked city is covered with clouds of battle again. The 100,000 rebels surrounded Pingyong Mansion completely, and the war was imminent.

    Surrounded by a group of burly and sturdy generals, the majestic rebel leader Yang Hao slowly rode out of the camp.

    Seeing Yang Hao riding out of the camp and gathering in the field, the rebel soldiers in the woods burst into wild cheers.

    However, the rebel soldiers in front of Yang Hao and the others voluntarily parted ways, allowing Yang Hao, the rebel leader, to ride his horse to the front of the formation.

    Amidst the fluttering battle flags, Yang Hao reined in his horse in front of the battle, and looked up towards Pingyong Mansion.

    The city of Pingyong Mansion is also waving banners, and countless sharp spears glow coldly under the sunlight.

    Seeing the Qinghe Army troops waiting in formation at the head of the city, a murderous intent flashed across Yang Hao's face.

    The Qinghe army was nothing more than a bandit army beaten by him at the beginning, but now they dare to challenge him, it is simply reckless!

    "Get ready to attack."

    After Yang Hao withdrew his gaze from the top of the city of Pingyong Mansion, he ordered lightly.

    "My lord, do you want to persuade to surrender first after courtesy first?" Wu Feng, the chief of staff, said.

    Yang Hao said confidently: "Our army is enough to conquer Pingyong Mansion, so why waste time."

    "If we can force them to lay down their weapons and then slaughter them all, we can save some soldiers and horses," Wu Feng said.

    "Besides, even if they fail to persuade them to surrender, they can still shake their morale."

    "In that case, let's send someone to try it out."

    If the Qinghe Army in Pingyong Mansion can be scared to put down their weapons, although the Qinghe Army in Pingyong Mansion is still doomed, Yang Hao thinks Wu Feng's words are right. If it is really successful, their casualties can indeed be reduced.

    However, he didn't have much hope for this suggestion from Chief of Staff Wu Feng, because he knew that there were still some hard bones in the Qinghe Army.

    ?Wu Feng, chief of staff, was deeply hurt by the Qinghe army. Although he wanted to persuade the Qinghe army to surrender, he didn't want to let the Qinghe army go. He just wanted to reduce losses.

    Soon, Chief of Staff Wu Feng called a rebel officer, whispered a few words to him, and rode his horse towards the city wall of Pingyongfu.

    The rebel officer reined in his horse within an arrow's reach, and then began to shout to the city to persuade him to surrender.

    "Listen, people at the top of the city, you have been surrounded by my 200,000 troops! You are doomed!"

    "If you are sensible, you should obediently put down your weapons and surrender, otherwise, no one will be left behind after the city is destroyed!"

    The rebel officer's voice was like a bell, and the brothers of the Qinghe army standing at the top of the city could hear it clearly.

    After hearing the threat of 200,000 troops and rebel officers outside the city, the new recruits of the Qinghe Army were still nervous for a while.

    "You are like a bitch, not to mention an army of 200,000, even 2 million will surely kill you all! If you have the guts, let them come!"

    Wang Hu, the head of the banner group, stood at the head of the city, and couldn't help but answer his voice, and the voice spread far away.

    "The leader of my family said that before the city is broken, as long as someone surrenders and helps me break the city, he will be promoted to three ranks and rewarded with ten thousand gold! Otherwise, today next year will be your death day, so you can do it yourself!"

    The officer of the rebel army and Wang Hu, the head of the Qinghe Army Banner, scolded each other for a few words, then turned their horses and rode back after throwing down a sentence.

    "Hmph, little trick, do you really think that my brothers from the Qinghe Army are the ones who are greedy for vanity?"

    Seeing the rebels blatantly sowing dissension in front of the battle, Wang Hu, the head of the banner, couldn't help but snort coldly.

    The rebel leader Yang Hao has always advocated violence to solve problems, so he had expected the failure of chief of staff Wu Feng to persuade him to surrender.

    "Beat the drum, attack¡ª"

    Seeing the officer who persuaded him to surrender came back on horseback, he swung his raised right hand downward, and twenty cowhide drums beat.

    "Boom!"

    ?The dull sound of war drums shook people's hearts like a dull thunder, and the sound of horns followed closelyIt rang.

    Seeing the flag officer next to Yang Hao waving the command flag, the 10,000 rebel soldiers deployed on the front line suddenly clamored.

    "Attack!"

    One of the rebel generals who commanded the ten thousand rebels pulled out the saber at his waist and swung it forward.

    Ten thousand rebels rushed towards the west city wall of Pingyong Mansion like a flood that opened the gate.

    The 10,000 rebels surged forward like waves, they screamed with their teeth and claws, and roared like beasts.

    Countless ladders, and the ramming tree were also wrapped in the turbulent team, quickly approaching Pingyong Mansion.

    "The crossbow is ready!"

    Amidst the roar of Wang Hu, the head of the banner, the crossbows that had been loaded with crossbows were pushed to the front of the battlements one after another, and the sharp crossbows were aimed at the surging tide of rebels coming from outside the city.

    "Launch!"

    Amid the howling sound of tearing the air, the bed crossbow and the octagonal ox crossbow were the first to reveal their sharp faces.

    The noisy rebels didn't hear the howling sound of the arrow tearing through the air at all, and then they saw their companions flying back in a distorted posture as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer.

    When their companions landed heavily, they realized that a huge blood hole had been pierced through their chests.

    The powerful arrow pierced through the body of the rebels, and then the second and third rebels

    The arrow set off a cloud of blood in the charging team of the rebels. On the way the arrow passed, the bodies of the soldiers of the rebels were torn and pierced like paper, and then fell lifelessly on the ground.  land.

    When the powerful crossbow bolt stopped in the body of a rebel, the rebel soldiers also changed expression suddenly when they saw the crossbow bolt with thick forearm.

    But soon the second wave of whistling followed, and the arrows rushed through the ranks of the rebels, pearing out a few streaks of blood.

    "Rush, rush up!"

    The officer of the rebel army also recovered from the horror, madness flashed across his ferocious face, and he roared loudly.

    The slightly chaotic team that was struck by the powerful crossbow bolts just now clamored and passed the corpses of those companions, and strode forward again.

    Seeing the almost unstopped rebel team, Wang Hu, the head of the banner, couldn't help shaking his head.

    These bed crossbows and octagonal ox crossbows are indeed very powerful, but the number is too small, and they are full of deterrence. Facing the turbulent crowd, they still have to rely on those individual crossbows.

    Two thousand archer brothers with individual crossbows stepped forward one after another. Following the order to fire, they quickly pulled the trigger.

    A row of crossbow arrows flew out quickly, and the front row of the rebels suddenly turned upside down, and a large area fell down.

    However, the rebels behind were carrying ladders, wielding swords, and quickly passed them forward.

    "Shhhhhhh¡ª¡ª"

    Another row of crossbow arrows passed by, and another piece of rebel army fell into a pool of blood, and those behind quickly added up.

    The archers of the Qinghe Army at the head of the city loaded their crossbow arrows mechanically and fired them. The rebels outside the city were killed and wounded soon.

    Under the urging of the officer, although they still lurked and rushed forward, the closer they got to the city wall, the greater the casualties.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
