Chapter 58: A Man Fears Neither Life Nor Death!

Chen Jingyao stood on the City Wall, his eyes, filled with bloodshot, looked at the tents of the Hu Jie Army in the distance, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.

“Captain, you haven’t closed your eyes for a day and a night. Take a rest!” At this moment, Doctor Song, after bandaging Chen Jingyao’s wound, said softly.

Chen Jingyao nodded and asked, “How are the soldiers’ wounds?”

Doctor Song sighed and said, “Those that could be saved were saved, some couldn’t be saved at all!”

In fact, he couldn’t handle it all by himself. Fortunately, Su Li gathered those who were wronged like her to help Doctor Song, but even so, many people still died because they were not rescued in time.

“You’ve worked hard. Go and rest first!”

Not long after, Su Li came to the City Wall with a bucket of water and distributed it to the soldiers.

“Brother Chen, drink some water!” Su Li held a water ladle and handed it to Chen Jingyao.

Chen Jingyao took the water ladle, drank a few mouthfuls, and said, “Thank you!”

“Brother Chen is too polite. Although we daughters can’t go to the Battlefield, we can also help with what we can!” Su Li took the water ladle, and seeing that there was no one else around, she whispered, “Is there any News about Reinforcements and Provisions?”

Su Li was asking not only about Reinforcements and Provisions, but also about her husband, for whom she was very concerned.

Chen Jingyao shook his head and said, “Most likely, they won’t come!”

Then, he turned his gaze and looked at Su Li, and said, “I have already asked someone to notify the Commoners of Wolf Beacon Pass, so that everyone should prepare to Evacuate. You should go with them before dark!”

Su Li shook her head and said, “My Family Ruined and People Dead half a year ago, and now Wolf Beacon Pass is my home. Where can I escape to?”

“We are Soldiers, our Mission is to Survival with Wolf Beacon Pass, but you are different. Listen to me, it’s better to live than anything else!” Chen Jingyao looked at her and said solemnly.

“I promised my husband that I would wait for him here!” Su Li’s Voice was not loud, but her Tone was full of firmness.

Chen Jingyao’s Heart was very Complex. He didn’t know whether he should be angry at Su Li’s stubbornness, or whether he should be happy that she had found someone she could entrust her life to.

After Su Li left, Chen Jingyao asked someone to call Yu Sheng over.

“Captain, are you looking for me?” Yu Sheng, with a bandage wrapped around his Shoulder, quickly came to Chen Jingyao.

“Yu Sheng, I’m entrusting you with a Mission, and you’re not allowed to tell anyone!”

Seeing that his Tone was so serious, Yu Sheng immediately said solemnly, “Don’t worry, Sir!”

Chen Jingyao nodded and said, “Tonight, you will take your Captain’s wife and Evacuate with the Commoners!”

“Ah!” Yu Sheng’s face was full of Surprise.

“This is an Order, and it is also the last Order I have given you!” Chen Jingyao stared at him and said.

“Subordinate, I understand!” Yu Sheng took a Deep Breath and replied in a low voice.

After Yu Sheng left, Chen Jingyao also leaned against the City Wall and closed his eyes to rest.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be another fierce battle tonight.

After all, for the Hu Jie, the darkness is more favorable for them to Siege, because the range of sight on the City Wall is limited, which is more conducive to Action.

Conversely, the Garrison can only be on the City Wall, which is completely a fixed Target.

When the last ray of Afterglow of the Setting Sun disappeared into the Skyline, the Night quietly descended.

Chen Jingyao asked someone to use all the remaining Military Provisions, and even killed two Warhorses, and after doing so, sent them to the City Wall.

If nothing unexpected happens, tonight will be the last battle. Regardless of Victory or defeat, Wolf Beacon Pass is destined to be unable to be defended. At least, the Brothers must be allowed to eat their fill before they leave, right?

I don’t know how the later generations of history books will write about themselves, whether they are Heroes who Fight to the Death, or Eternal Sinners who have lost the National Gate.

But when I think about it, a small person like myself may not even have the Qualification to be written down in a few lines in history books, why bother worrying about it?

Not long after, the Personal Guard brought dozens of jars of wine and distributed them to all the Soldiers.

Everyone was very happy, although they all knew in their Hearts that after eating this meal, they might only be able to eat the next meal below.

Chen Jingyao raised a bowl of wine and said loudly to everyone, “Some say that for Soldiers, Died on the Battlefield is the best place to go. Others say that Man is not afraid of Life and Death, but only asks for no regrets in Death.”

“I don’t know if it’s worth it to die here. Perhaps, the Empire will not remember us in a few years, but I believe that the Commoners of Wolf Beacon Pass will remember us, and this hot land that we Protect with our lives will remember us!”

“Brothers, if nothing unexpected happens, today will be our last time fighting side by side. Perhaps, all of us will Die on the Battlefield here. I want to ask you, are you afraid?” Chen Jingyao’s Voice resounded through Wolf Beacon Pass.

“Afraid of a bird, it’s just a matter of dying. We’ve already killed enough these two days. Killing one more is earning one!” Xiong Guang said with a Heroic Spirit.

“Captain, my whole Family was killed by the Hu Bandit. I joined the army to Avenge them. This time I killed more than a dozen Hu Jie, even if I go down to see my Family, I have no regrets!” a Soldier with blood on his Shoulder shouted loudly.

“My Brother Died on the Battlefield in this Wolf Beacon Pass three years ago. If I die here today, I can also proudly tell him that I didn’t embarrass him!”

“A head falls off and a bowl-sized scar, it’s just a matter of exchanging life for life!”

“It’s not lonely on the road to the Yellow Springs to Die on the Battlefield with so many Brothers and Comrades!”

Seeing that everyone was filled with righteous indignation and had seen through Life and Death, Chen Jingyao’s Eyes were red, “Okay, drink this bowl of wine, and we’ll kill them to our heart’s content. If you don’t think it’s enough, we’ll kill them again in the underworld!”

“Kill, kill, kill…”

Everyone shouted in unison and immediately drank the wine in their bowls.

The generals have the Heart to Die, and the soldiers have no thought of greed for life.

Although they were all wounded, their Fighting Spirit soared to an unprecedented height.

Such an Army, even if they fight to the last person, dares to stand in front of ten thousand troops. As long as there is still one person, Wolf Beacon Pass will not be lost!

Late Night!

The Hu Jie Main Force Army appeared again outside Wolf Beacon Pass. Huo Yuanqing, wearing a chain mail, stood in the front, with Armor and Banners behind him.

Huo Yuanqing personally led the troops, and a group of Soldiers came out in full force, determined to take Wolf Beacon Pass tonight.

The original two thousand Infantry had lost more than seven hundred, and the remaining more than a thousand were divided into three Troops. The first Troop of five hundred people held Scaling Ladders, the second Troop of three hundred people were responsible for War Chariots, and the third Troop of three hundred people were responsible for ramming vehicles to directly attack the City Gate.

The remaining one hundred people controlled Catapults and implemented a bombardment on Wolf Beacon Pass.

As for the thousand Light Cavalry, they basically had no Battle Damage. After all, they had only interfered with the Garrison on the City Wall before and did not participate in the actual Siege.

Two burly Strong Men stood on Huo Yuanqing’s left and right, like two iron towers, with Fierce Light in their Eyes. They were the two Experts sent by Tuoba Jie to Huo Yuanqing.

Tuman and Bolu.
