    The sky was bright, and there was a layer of icy mist on the banks of the Ganshui River. The soldiers standing on the snow felt as if they were in an ice cellar and shivered with cold.

    The soldiers of the Desert Empire hurriedly assembled in the middle of the night, nervously defending the direction of the river beach, and they were also cold, hungry and tired at the moment.

    But now they have to cheer up, because the large troops of the Far Eastern Army are crossing the river continuously, and a fierce battle is inevitable.

    The soldiers of these desert empires couldn't understand why they didn't take advantage of the Far Eastern Army's unstable foothold on the river beach to repel them.

    Instead, Marshal Ashnad issued an order not to attack them, and watched as a large number of Far Eastern Army troops assembled on the river beach.

    But complaining is all about complaining. For ordinary soldiers like them, being able to kill the enemy in this war and ensure their own survival is what they should do.

    On the flanks of the imperial army formation in the desert covered with snow, more than 20,000 ragged soldiers also stared at the Far Eastern Army assembled on the river beach, with murderous aura.

    Compared with the desert empire soldiers wearing thick sheepskin jackets, these soldiers deployed on the flanks are like beggars.

    They were all wearing tattered clothes discarded by soldiers of the Desert Empire. In order to resist the cold, all kinds of things that could keep out the cold were wrapped around their bodies.

    Their weapons are also tattered, and many of them even have gaps in their swords, but they are full of fighting spirit.

    This group of soldiers did not belong to the regular army of the Desert Empire, they were new troops recruited from the Red Sand Province.

    The Emperor Ashinayun of the Desert Empire has issued an order that as long as these new troops can make contributions on the battlefield, they will be rewarded with cattle, sheep and land.

    It is precisely because of this that these shabby soldiers are eager to fight on the battlefield to improve the lives of their families.

    However, they could see the piled up corpses on the river beach. They were the people who were killed by the Far Eastern Army's catapults and thunder attacks last night.

    The corpses of these desert empire soldiers were already frozen and stiff, and the river beach was stained red with blood, which made these recruits not only eager for meritorious service on the battlefield, but also full of fear of the soldiers of the Far East Army assembled in the distance.

    "Why don't the Far Easterners attack?"

    Seeing the soldiers of the Far Eastern Army assembled on the river beach in the distance, a desert empire recruit wearing a jacket full of holes asked in a low voice a burly centurion next to him.

    This burly centurion, with a straight nose and a horrific scar on his resolute face, made him look vicious.

    "Wait, they are about to attack."

    The burly centurion looked at the thin recruit who was questioning, and his eyes softened a lot.

    "Old man, the people from the Far East are much stronger than those horse thieves, follow me when fighting, don't go too far."

    The centurion patted the thin soldier who was questioning, and whispered to him.

    The reason why the centurion took care of this thin soldier was because this thin soldier was his own younger brother.

    "His Majesty the Emperor said that if you can kill three enemies, you will be rewarded with a sheep."

    "As long as I kill a few more enemies, I can get more rewards. When the rewarded ewe gives birth to lambs, our family also has its own flock, so we don't have to graze others"

    The thin soldier was looking forward to a better life in the future, but before he finished speaking, the centurion interrupted him viciously.

    "Shut up!"

    The centurion stared at his own brother, and sternly reprimanded him.

    "Don't you listen to me?!" the centurion said coldly.

    "If you have a problem, what will you do at home?!"

    Seeing his elder brother getting angry, the thin soldier also showed a trace of fear on his face.

    The desert empire recruited soldiers on a large scale, and all the men in the village where they lived were also recruited to the battlefield.

    Bai Nu was sent to serve as an officer in this centurion of recruits conscripted from his hometown, but he did not expect that his younger brother would also be conscripted.

    ?Compared to his younger brother who only wanted to make meritorious service on the battlefield, Bai Nu, who had been in the army for several years, knew the cruelty of the battlefield.

    He followed the army to fight horse thieves, if not for his quick response, his life would have been lost.

    Even horse thieves almost killed him, let alone what they are facing now is far away.A regular army unit of the U.S. Army.

    For a veteran like him, what he thinks is not how many enemies he has won, but how to survive!

    But his younger brother came to the battlefield for the first time, and he was encouraged by the reward and was eager to try, which made Bai Nu very worried.

    "Brother, I will follow you later."

    Seeing his elder brother getting angry, the thin soldier also spoke in a low voice.

    After Bai Nu glanced at his younger brother, he turned his eyes to the distance, and saw that the Far Eastern Army troops on the river beach in the distance had begun to move slowly.

    The vanguard led by Wang Hu, the deputy commander of the Sixth Field Army, has occupied the river beach, and several fortified military formations have been set up.

    As the follow-up troops continued to cross the river through the pontoon bridge, there were no longer enough soldiers on the river beach.

    Therefore, Wang Hu, the deputy head of the army, had to continue to attack and move forward to open the way for the follow-up attacking troops.

    Amidst the thundering drums, the 10,000 forward troops led by the deputy army commander Wang Hu formed a neat array, slowly advancing like a steel fortress.

    Soldiers of the Far Eastern Army stepped on drums, held up shields, and pointed their spears, approaching the desert empire not far away.

    Behind the front-line infantry, the archers of the Far Eastern Army also deployed their two wings and moved forward at the same time, ready to cover the infantry's attack at any time.

    "Master Marshal, the Far Easterners have attacked."

    Seeing the slowly moving steel forest, Xue Yanku, the general of the Desert Empire who was arrayed on the snow, also opened his mouth to remind Marshal Ashnad.

    "Is the trebuchet ready?"

    Marshal Ashnad looked at the approaching Far East Army troops, his eyes were full of murderous intent.

    "Reporting to Marshal, all one hundred and thirty-five trebuchets are ready." General Xue Yanku replied.

    "After they get close to the place where the arrow is shot, the trebuchet and the bow and arrow attack at the same time!"

    Marshal Ashnad snorted coldly: "I want to use the heads of these Far Easterners to pay homage to General Su Geshi who died last night."

    "yes!"

    After General Xue Yanku got the order, he immediately went to deploy in person.

    On the banks of the Ganshui River, the cold wind howled, the battle flags swept across, and the air was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

    Wang Hu, the deputy commander of the Sixth Field Army, also held a square shield and slowly moved forward in the team. He stared at the desert empire army formation waiting in the distance, with a serious expression on his face.

    Their attack this time must defeat these desert empire troops, so once the attack is launched, it must be fierce and fierce.

    As the distance between the two sides got closer, the orders of the deputy army commander Wang Hu were also conveyed one by one.

    Those archers deployed on both wings of the infantry attacking team are also ready to shoot at any time to cover the infantry.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
