Because the land in the border area is too soft, the tunnel they dug cannot be too deep. If there is no support, it may collapse at any time.

Jing Li first issued a mobilization order: To attack the city today, whoever can ascend first will be awarded the rank of general, a hundred slaves and a hundred catties of gold.

When the soldiers heard this, they rushed forward crazily.

"Come on!" Some soldiers looked ferocious and roared crazily.

Thousands of ladders were erected on the city wall, and a large number of soldiers quickly climbed to the top of the ladders, trying to rush into the city wall and fight with the defenders.

But... the ladders can be pushed down, or they can be poured with kerosene and burned. Each ladder can only charge one or two people at the same time. Facing the swords of a large number of defenders who are stabbing at them at the same time, they can only drink their hatred.

A soldier standing on the ladder jumped out of the ladder and wanted to rush into the city wall.

"Pfft!" Immediately, several swords were stabbed at him. The soldier who rushed in only had time to make one slash before he was stabbed into a honeycomb.

"Boom!" A ladder was pushed down, and a large number of soldiers fell from the height.

If you fall from a height of several meters, it will be better if you are strong, but if you are weak, you will fall to death or become disabled.

The most terrible thing is... there are a large number of dead soldiers below with weapons on the ground.

He fell down and his body just hit the weapon.

"Puch"'s body was directly penetrated by the weapon. There were also a large number of soldiers who rushed to the city and fired arrows at the city wall frantically. The dense arrows fell on the city wall and even fell inside the city wall.

Many soldiers defending the city were directly shot to death by falling arrows...

Every time, every moment, a large number of soldiers died.

Although many soldiers who defended the city also died in battle, the soldiers who attacked the city died in greater numbers.

"Hurry! Push back!" Wu Guang, who was behind the army, roared in a low voice, "Hurry up, push back to the city wall quickly."

Wu Guang really couldn't stand it anymore, and he expected the situation to change immediately.

Seeing hundreds of people die under the bows and arrows of the border town defenders, Jing Li felt heartbroken.

Obviously, the battle would be unwinnable if the person at the dead end was distressed and uneasy. Jing Li immediately put away his emotions and ordered Jingzhuang to seize the time to dig the tunnel.

Fortunately, the soil here was relatively loose, and the excavation progressed quickly. Jing Li couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

But the good times did not last long. To everyone's surprise, it started to rain.

The soldiers on the city wall picked up basins to collect water.

Gao Yeyun originally had a headache as the well water was not drinkable and the stored water was about to be insufficient.

It was raining heavily at this time, and it was like the sky never stopped.

Because the ground had experienced rainwater, the tunnel collapsed after digging only a few dozen meters.

The soldiers on the city wall looked at the collapsed ditch and laughed loudly knowing that the enemy's plan had failed.

The faces of the Zhongxuan army were all red, but they could not rush under the city wall, and their hearts became even more angry.

The selected soldiers who died first were no doubt desperate, but the soldiers in the border towns were no weaklings either.

During the confrontation, the Zhongxuan Kingdom soldiers dropped thousands of corpses in a hurry.

As soon as Jing Li saw that his strength was not enough and the tunnel excavation failed, he quickly ordered his troops to retreat.

At night, it was still raining.

Autumn rain is not gentle and demure, nor is it as delicate and fresh as the tranquil and gentle virgin.

Rather, he is like a warrior general on the battlefield with leopard eyes, a tiger's beard, and a halberd sounding like thunder. He rushes left and right in the melee with swords, swords, shadows, drums and horns clashing.

The rain gradually stopped.

Falcon feathers flutter in the dark night sky.

Jing Li looked at the information brought back by Falcon Feather,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Anger arose in his heart. He crumpled the paper in his hand into a ball.

"Call me the general!" Jing Li said to the deputy general beside him.

Soon, the Lord will kneel in the tent camp.

Jing Li sat on a chair, his eyes cold and solemn.

"Tell me again, when you led eight thousand elite soldiers to explore the road, how many troops did the other side have?" Jing Li asked coldly.

The letter Falcon Feiyu brought back said that today the people lined the streets in the city to welcome the soldiers of Fenglin Empire, but there were only thousands of them, and reinforcements did not arrive tonight.

"Come back to the commander, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops..." The general knelt on the ground in a cold sweat. He didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this matter today, but he felt uneasy and uneasy.

"How much?" Jing Li couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Tens of thousands..." The general's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Tens of thousands, right?" Jing Li raised his voice and asked again.

"Return to...Commander..., it's..." The general's voice became smaller and smaller.

"You still dare to lie! As a general, don't you know how much impact lying about military information can have on the war?" Jing Li was furious.

"The last general deserves to die! The last general deserves to die!" The general knew that the matter had been exposed and kept begging for mercy.

"Speak clearly!" Jing Li wished he could kill the general in front of him immediately.

"There were hundreds of elite soldiers fighting that day. We were ambushed, so..." The general did not dare to continue.

"You loser! Just a few hundred people destroyed more than half of our 8,000 cavalry! How did you lead the troops? If you dare to lie about the military situation after losing the battle, your crime will be increased!"

Jing Li was no longer in the mood to talk to the loser in front of him anymore, and said coldly: "Come here! Drag him down, beat him thirty times, and then cut out his tongue!"

When the general heard this, his face turned pale: "Commander, spare your life..."

Someone had already come outside the tent to take the general out.

Outside the account.

The general lay face down on the muddy ground, being rattled by hard stones.

The heavy wooden board was swung down violently, very quickly, and landed heavily on the general.

The feeling of pain made the general feel as if he was about to explode. The heart-wrenching feeling spread throughout the general's body, and his hands could not help but tremble.

One...two...ten...

Accompanied by the general's painful screams, Jing Li looked at the beaten general outside the tent, the anger between his brows still unabated.

The general lay on the ground, feeling a tearing pain in his buttocks.

The heavy board fell on my skin, causing excruciating pain.

Although I have experienced many battles, injuries are common. But now, I can still feel the pain of being ripped apart by the stick.

Finally finished.

The general felt a surge of energy and blood in his chest, and a fishy-sweet taste filled his mouth.

He opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Then his eyes went black and the man lost consciousness.

"Come back to the commander, he has fainted." The soldier stopped his hand, lowered his head and said to Jing Li.

"Wake him up!" Jing Li's anger continued.

After saying that, someone immediately brought a bucket of cold water and poured it on the unconscious general, immediately waking him up.

When the general woke up and saw the soldiers holding scissors, he was frightened and backed away.

He looked at the scissors in horror and said: "Commander, spare my life!"

"Spare your life?" Jing Li snorted coldly.

Jing Li felt that his hatred for the general kneeling in front of him was extremely strong.

"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Do you think you can still survive after committing such a serious crime?" Jing Li laughed angrily.

The Lord will stay where he is, unable to believe it from beginning to end. This is his final outcome.

However, he is unwilling to give in. He has made many great contributions. Does Jing Li really not care about it at all?

Thinking of this, the Lord finally shed tears of anger.

The general thought of his wife, children, and elderly mother at home. He had mixed feelings in his heart. He wanted to see his family again!

But he will never have the chance to see his family again in his life.

"Ah!" As he thought about it, the general became more and more unwilling. "Ah! Ah!"

He screamed like crazy, and his heart-rending voice spread throughout the camp.

The soldiers who were executing the execution outside the tent were all frightened.

The general's shouts did not arouse Jing Li's sympathy in the end. Several people holding torture instruments in front of the general walked towards the general in a swaggering manner.
