Chapter 540 A Desperate Breakout

Standing on the city wall and looking into the distance, Ling Yun sighed again.

There is not much food and grass in Yashuiguan. If we wait any longer, we will be trapped in the pass.

"The reinforcements haven't arrived yet, so it seems we can only gamble once."

If they continue to wait, they will run out of food and grass, and there will be no chance of survival.

It would be better to burn the boat and make a desperate attempt to break through, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope.

Ling Yun knew this very well.

The honor of a warrior should be to die in battle, not to hide in the city and starve to death.

"Give me the order to get everyone ready for battle. This time, we can only advance, not retreat."

Ling Yun said solemnly after coming down from the city wall.

When the soldiers in Yashui Pass were having breakfast, they found that today's breakfast had become particularly rich.

The last meal before war is like this.

The soldiers knew this, so they silently put rice into their mouths and ate large pieces of meat.

Because no one can guarantee that after this meal, they will have the opportunity to eat such a delicious meal again.

After all the soldiers have finished eating, the assembly is completed.

Ling Yun stood in front of the formation with a straight face, doing the final mobilization before the war.

"Now, it's a life-and-death moment at Yashuiguan. We must break out."

"After this battle begins, we can only move forward, not retreat."

While Ling Yun spoke, his eyes swept over all the soldiers.

Every soldier who made eye contact with Ling Yun unconsciously raised his head and raised his chest, showing determination.

"If anyone dares to retreat, the rear army has the right to directly kill the front army. If the rear army dares to retreat, the supervising team can directly kill him."

"If I take a step back, all of you have the right to kill me."

Ling Yun shouted loudly, his tone extremely firm.

Mobilization before war must boost the morale of the soldiers.

The so-called sad soldiers will win.

The power of breaking the cauldron is far greater than other means.

Because they have no retreat.

Ling Yun looked at the tall city gate in front of him, got on his horse, raised the Guandao in his hand, and took a deep breath.

"The Huangyuan Empire will last forever!"

The loud voice resounded throughout Yashui Pass.

"The Huangyuan Empire will last forever!"

"The Huangyuan Empire will last forever."

The soldiers also shouted in unison, and the voices embodying the determination to die rose into the sky and resounded throughout the sky.

Morale reached its peak at this moment.

"Get ready to open the city gate."

The Guandao in Ling Yun's hand pointed directly at the outside of Yashuiguan.

"Boom--!"

The heavy city gate whined under the pull of the noose, and the tall city gate was slowly opened.

"attack!"

Ling Yun took the lead and rushed outside Yashui Pass.

Leading the way is the most morale-boosting move.

It is also a very dangerous move.

But at this moment, it doesn't matter anymore.

Ling Yun's actions instantly aroused the fighting spirit in the hearts of the soldiers, and the army began to surge outside Yashui Pass.

Armor and weapons collided like a torrent of steel.

It has to be said that Rong Yukuo did not expect Ling Yun's desperate move.

According to his estimation, there should be some leftover food and grass in Yashui Pass.

However, just such a small mistake caught the Xingyao Empire's expeditionary force guarding outside Yashui Pass by surprise.

It also opened a gap in the encirclement for the defenders of Yashui Pass to break through.
