Chapter 1379: Han Banner World (Sixty-Nine) Same War Song, Different Mood

"Mighty!"

"Mighty!"

The shouts went straight into the sky, and the entire Black Ice Palace seemed to tremble slightly. Standing on the high steps, Ying Ying seemed to have found the excitement of leading tens of thousands of cavalrymen to gallop freely on the grassland and chase the Xiongnu royal court. Now standing on the square in front of the Black Ice Platform are 10,000 Xuanyi Guards and 3,000 elite armored soldiers brought in by Zhou Yu. In recent years, Zhou Yu's troops have been guarding the south, and they are actually not well received. Among the several border troops, they are treated the worst. This time, in order to enter the city for inspection, Zhou Yu collected the entire army to gather 3,000 sets of brand new armor.

The 3,000 soldiers were divided into six square formations, three in front and three in the back. On their left and right sides and back, there was a square formation composed of 10,000 Xuanyi Guards, which surrounded them faintly. Zhou Yu was fully armored, standing in front of the square formation, looking up at Ying Ying on the steps.

King Qin Wulie gave Zhou Yu an incomparable pressure. Even Zhou Yu, who was used to the wind and rain, did not dare to breathe in front of King Qin Wulie. Ying Ying was most similar to King Qin Wulie in appearance, but Zhou Yu could not feel the momentum of King Qin Wulie at all.

Is this the reason why Lu Chao dared to rebel? At least Ying Ying is far from the power of King Qin Wulie who controls everything.

"Warriors of the Great Qin!" On the steps, Ying Ying opened his arms, "The Great Qin is in danger, but as long as you are loyal and righteous, I will have no worries. Tell me, are you willing to fight to the death for the Great Qin?"

Zhou Yu choked and pulled out the sword at his waist, holding it high, "The country has nurtured scholars for a hundred years, and it is time to die for justice today. We are willing to fight to the death for the king and destroy this morning."

"It is time to die for justice today!" Three thousand soldiers raised their spears high in their hands. Shouted in unison.

"We will die for justice today!" Ten thousand Xuanyi Guards responded loudly.

Ying Ying's face flushed, and he pulled out the sword from his waist and raised it high.

"Destroy this breakfast and promote the power of our Great Qin!"

"Reinvigorate the national prestige and reshape the soul of the Great Qin!"

More than ten thousand soldiers waved their weapons and shouted in unison, and the momentum went straight to the sky. From some corner, a voice came, which was the Qin war song.

"Restore our rivers and mountains, blood will not be shed, and we will not stop fighting until we die. The great country in the east is rising like the sun, and the national hatred of a hundred years is difficult to calm. The world is in turmoil, how can we be healthy and peaceful? There are patriots in the country, who will compete with us?"

First, a few people hummed, and then dozens of people. Hundreds of people, thousands of people sang together, or this caused the soldiers to be tone-deaf, and they just opened their throats and shouted hoarsely. But the passionate melody of the war song still made everyone excited.

On the steps, Ying Ying was so excited that tears flowed down his face. He waved the sword in his hand and sang the war song loudly. He walked down.

The singing spread from the square, spreading in circles, and the whole city of Xianyang seemed to be singing the Qin song. The people on the street stopped and turned to look at the place where the singing came from. They began to sing along with their lips. Year after year, they used to sing this song and send their sons to the battlefield one after another.

With tears flowing down their faces, they sang the war song loudly.

The sound of the war song reached the city wall, where the 20,000 black-clothed armored soldiers guarding the city wall turned around and raised their weapons in the direction of the black ice platform towering in the city.

"Fight the old Qin, restore our rivers and mountains. We will not stop fighting until our blood dries up and we die!"

The singing reached the foot of the city and the camp where Zhou Yu's troops were stationed. Soldiers raised their weapons, walked out of the barracks, gathered together, and looked at the city of Xianyang behind them.

"Fight the old Qin, restore our rivers and mountains. We will not stop fighting until our blood dries up and we die!"

Inside and outside the city, the Qin war song resounded between heaven and earth.

In the distance, Lu Chao's troops were slowly unfolding. Between heaven and earth, the rumbling sound of the war song made all the generals of Lu's army change color slightly. Once upon a time, they also sang this war song loudly, walked out of Xianyang City with confidence, mounted their war horses, and expanded the territory for Qin, and resisted foreign aggression for Qin. At that time, they never thought that one day, they would appear under the city of Xianyang with armor and soldiers as enemies.

The generals' faces changed color, their hearts trembled slightly, and the soldiers found it even more difficult to stabilize their minds. The neat formation began to fluctuate, and a slight noise sounded in the queue.

"General!" Gou Xin listened to the war song that seemed to be everywhere, looked at the agitation of his own army, and looked at Lu Chao worriedly.

"What is there to worry about?" Lu Chao smiled slightly, "Isn't this also our war song? Gou Xin, we are not rebelling, we are here to clear the court. The king has been deceived by the traitors, making the people of Daqin live in misery. If this continues, Daqin will perish in a day or two. We have received great kindness from the previous king, how can we watch Daqin's hundreds of years of foundation fall apart like this? Just like this? "

"General, you are right, we are here to clear the court and return the clear and bright rivers and mountains of Daqin to me." Gou Xin nodded repeatedly.

The trusted generals around Lu Chao slowly relaxed their tense faces.

Yes, we are not here to rebel, we are here to purge the emperor’s court, we are here to rebuild the great Qin Empire.

"Soldiers, this is also our war song, sing it." Lu Chao exerted force on his feet, and started to fight on horseback, shouting and singing loudly: "Fight against the old Qin, and restore our rivers and mountains. We will not stop fighting until our blood dries up and we die!"

Under the city of Xianyang, a strange scene appeared. The two hostile parties were on the verge of a fight, but they sang the same war song. The singing of both sides rose and fell, and the eyes they looked at each other were extremely strange. An indescribable emotion began to spread between the two sides.

"General, our troops have arrived at the location!" Wang Changyong, a general under Lu Chao, rode over and bowed to Lu Chao.

"Okay, General Wang, your mission is to guard Zhou Yu's troops. Remember, don't take the initiative to attack." Lu Chao pointed to the distance, where Zhou Yu's troops were stationed, and shadowy figures were walking out of the barracks and starting to line up.

"General, if they take the initiative to attack us, can't I fight back?" Wang Changyong asked puzzledly, "They are a great threat to our flanks. General, they are Meng Tian's old subordinates. They have been under Zhou Yu's command for many years, but Zhou Yu is not a pushover!"

"Don't worry, they won't have a chance to attack us." Lu Chao laughed. "Go!"

"I obey your command!" Although he was puzzled, Wang Changyong still clasped his hands together and bowed, then drove away quickly.

One general after another rode his horse and galloped in, and another drove away, but everyone who received the general's order had more or less doubts in their hearts, because the military order issued by the general seemed to open the gate of Xianyang City in front of him, but how could this be possible?

"Gou Xin, take the artillery team up and fire a few shots to inform our king that I, Lu Chao, am here! I am here to help him clear the treacherous people around him!" Lu Chao laughed loudly.

"Yes!" Gou Xin said excitedly.

Lu Chao's artillery team came from the battle of Lubin. Qian Zhongyi, a member of Xu Yahua's army, defeated the 2nd Division of the 20th Army of the Han Army and captured ten cannons, hundreds of shells, and dozens of artillerymen. Lu Chao immediately regarded them as treasures and incorporated all these artillerymen and cannons into his central army.

The soldiers shouted slogans and slowly pushed the cannons weighing thousands of pounds forward. With the operation of the artillerymen, the cannons raised their black muzzles and pointed at the top of Xianyang City.

"Load!"

"Load!"

"Ready! Fire!"

With an order, more than ten cannons sounded in turn, and red-hot shells jumped out of the barrels one by one, flying towards the top of Xianyang City amid the Qin songs on and off the city.

This distance was far greater than the range of the catapults of both sides. The soldiers on the city wall never thought that the other side would have long-range weapons to attack the top of the city wall at this distance. Hearing the huge roar, looking at the rising smoke and the ten red fireballs flying rapidly in the sky, the singing on the city wall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the fireballs that were getting closer and closer.

With a loud bang, the first shell hit the Xianyang city wall opposite. With a loud bang, the shell was deeply embedded in the thick city wall, and the entire city wall seemed to be shaking slightly with this blow.

As soon as the first shell arrived, the second and third shells came one after another. The two shells passed the city wall and fell into the city. With a loud bang, the shell pierced the roof of a civilian house. The huge heat instantly ignited the house, and a raging fire burned.

The fifth shell hit the tower. Amidst the huge roar, the tower collapsed in half in an instant. A fire started. The remaining shells fell on the city wall, spinning and ramming on the wall. Even if the Xuanyiwei soldiers were wearing the best armor, they would be killed or injured if they were hit.

Shells flew one after another. The top of the city was in a mess. Screams came one after another, and thick smoke rose to the sky.

"Fire!" Gou Xin ordered excitedly again under the city.

The cannons sounded one after another, and the sickles of the god of death flew out of the barrels and flew towards the top of Xianyang.

"Fight back, fight back!" On the city, in a panic, the catapults began to fight back outside the city, but the range of the weapons of both sides was too far apart. The stone shells flew out, but fell powerlessly a few miles away from the Qin army's artillery position, smashing deep pits on the ground.

In front of the Black Ice Platform, the war song was still ringing. A horse galloped over and the knight dismounted, "My king, the rebels have begun to attack the city."

Ying Ying looked up and looked towards the city wall. There, rumbling sounds were heard from time to time. He sneered and walked down the steps step by step calmly, "Soldiers, the rebels have begun to attack. What should we do?"

"Fight back, fight back!"

"Okay, I will see you off." Ying Ying walked down the steps of the Black Ice Platform and walked towards the teams of excited soldiers. (To be continued.)
