As far as the eye could see, the wounded soldiers were lying under the eaves of the veranda, without the help of medicine, moaning softly. The low, heart-wrenching moans and the faces that were bloodstained and tired from enduring the pain made Manchu's heart fill with sympathy.

All of a sudden, he recalled the scenes of the crisis. The floods, the earthquakes, and the victims of the disaster were all the same. In the rush, some soldiers were injured and even killed. When it was difficult, he would lie on the ground and wait for help.

However, the military state today was already an isolated city. Who would come to rescue them?

The death of Helian Shan was the last straw that could crush the entire military state. Presumably, the generals guarding the city had yet to spread the news of Helian Mountain's death in order to pacify the troops.

It shouldn't be long before the body of the general was secretly brought back.

"Miss, since three days ago, we have already demolished the houses. The first one we have demolished is the garrison. "We still have a portion of the backyard, and even the defensive hall has been demolished."

"So that's how it is. We came out from the back door. Uncle Yi didn't want me to see it."

"Miss, let's go back. This lowly one is worried about Miss's health."

"Don't worry, Uncle Yi. I'm fine. I've already recovered. It's just that my body is still somewhat weak and will be able to recover after resting for a few days.

She could not explain to him what she meant. She was not going to die now. Her body had a new soul. She was full of energy, but her physical strength could not keep up with it.

However, when he carefully looked at Helian Manqiu once again, he confirmed that she was not in the wrong state. It was clear that she was in a good state of mind, unlike before where she was unconscious and at the brink of death.

"Bring me there. I'm worried about my father, so I might be able to help."

He didn't think that Helian Manqiu would be of any help, but he couldn't say it in such a way. He could only order someone to put Helian Manqiu on the carriage and move towards the city wall.

Along the way, they occasionally saw soldiers and residents busy with work. Perhaps it was because it was almost time for dinner, but after a day of war, the army outside the city was also tired, so there was a short period of peace.

He asked where the general was along the way and said he was at the north gate.

"Miss, the general is at the north gate."

"Is he fighting against the low and fresh?"

"Yes, the Law King is too despicable. He secretly attracted those low and fresh people, wanting to use those low and fresh people to destroy us." The General had a feud with the Fresh Subordinate, and the Fresh Subordinate had always wanted to kill the General. Among the spies who went on a rampage a few days ago were King Lu and the people who fresh and inferior to the barbarians. "

"Let's go to the east gate to take a look."

At this moment, Helian Shan was definitely not at the North Gate. She wanted to see what kind of person the Great General of the East Gate was and whether he had arrived at the walls of the Army Region City.

He didn't dare to travel too fast, so he ordered the horse carriage to move as smoothly as possible. A small group of soldiers escorted him to the east gate on horseback.

"Oh …"

Suppressed and painful groans were floating in the air, occasionally emitting a few groans and screams.

The air was filled with the smell of blood. The ground under his feet was thick and red, as if it had been dyed red with blood.

Blood had yet to dry in some low-lying areas. Under the sunlight, it was a glaring red, flashing with indescribable sadness and strangeness. The entire military region had turned into a bloody city, and a thick smell of blood wafted in the air.

As far as the eye could see, the residential area around the city wall had long been turned into empty space, leaving behind scattered pieces of the foundation that had been dug up.

The beams, the bricks, the pillars, the stones, the tiles, even the windows, anything that had the slightest offensive power, was used. There were also some junk piled around, ready to defend against the enemy attack.

The soldiers closed their eyes in exhaustion. They held steamed buns and porridge in their hands as they lazily leaned against the city wall, eating.

There was blood everywhere, and their clothes were soaked through with it. It was hard to tell if they were injured or tainted with the enemy's blood. Everyone's face was dark and gloomy. Occasionally, they would open their eyes, which were bloodshot. In the light from the corner of the wall, they were like evil spirits that crawled out from hell, emitting killing intent.

"Is there a shortage of food?"

"It's not really a shortage, but since the military state is under siege, we can't transport food and supplies, so we have to control it."

"They are all very tired."

"Yes, the garrison troops of the Military Region are limited. At the same time, they guard four city gates and many of their brothers died." There are many people who have not slept a wink for several days and nights, and even the General has not come home for several days. "

"Bring me up to the city wall to take a look."

He jumped off his horse and leaned over a man at his feet. "Where is the general?" he asked.

"He went to scout the various places. I don't know where he is now."

Helian Manqiu's heart relaxed. The news of the death of Helian Shan had indeed been suppressed in secret and had not spread out.

"Miss, do you want to go up to the city wall and have a look?"

Helian Manqiu nodded. What was the point in having her be carried off the carriage? The two of them carried her onto the city wall.

Someone noticed the intention behind bringing someone up, so he walked over and greeted, "Why is Butler He here? Aiya, young miss is here too, is young miss feeling better?"

Looking up, he seemed to be a general. He did not know what position it belonged to, but his face was covered by blood, making it difficult to see his original appearance.

"Fortunately, what is missing from the defense of the city? "What's the problem?"

"There are a lot of things that are missing. Originally, I have used up all my weapons to defend the city, but three days ago, I started to tear down the houses, using broken bricks and rafters to replace my weapons. He was extremely lacking in arrows, and now he did not dare to use them carelessly. He had already used up all his crossbow. "Also, lacking medicine, brothers and sisters suffered great casualties …"

The person wanted to continue. However, he gave a light cough and signaled with his eyes for him to stop.

"Tao Zheng, do you know where the general is now?"

However, he hastily interrupted Tao Zheng. Helian Manqiu whispered, "Uncle Yi, I'm thirsty. Go and get me some water to drink."

Pitiful. These two words could only be used to describe the military state last night.

Blood-red light suffused the night. The four city gates attacked in succession, and the South Gate was the first to attack.

The always calm South Gate suddenly invested tens of thousands of elite soldiers, quietly entered the camp in the deep night, and launched a fierce attack in the middle of the night.

Staircase, bed crossbow, battering hammer, catapult...

All sorts of siege weapons were available, so they quietly approached the east gate in the dark of the night. Fortunately, Helian Shan was prepared in advance and personally led his men to guard the east gate.

Lying on the stretcher, Helian Manqiu gazed down from the gap in the battlements. The city wall was in ruins, with many places damaged. In some places, bricks taken from the houses had been piled up against the rocks. They could barely be considered a temporary wall.

The eastern gate was guarded by soldiers. The tents were densely packed as they circled around the entrance. They were divided into the five elements of gossip and formed a camp. The camp stood outside the eastern gate with a towering murderous aura that shot straight into the clouds.

Suddenly, she saw a black horse riding a group of golden riders, whose golden armor shone brilliantly, surpassing the blazing sun at this moment. Suddenly, she saw a group of black horses, whose golden armor shone brilliantly, surpassing the blazing sun at this moment.
