Qin Zhao stood still shortly after, and Qi Yan Su Luo appeared by her side.
Qin Zhao held her hand and said, "Stay behind me if anything happens, I will protect you."
Qi Yan Su Luo neither agreed nor disagreed, she just held Qin Zhao's hand in return.
The Chi Rong army pushed the huge battering ram, pounding the city wall bang bang.
Huo Jun ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows and kill the people pushing the carts below!
The battering ram stopped for a few breaths, but soon other Chi Rong soldiers filled in, and each person was equipped with a shield soldier beside them.
The bows and arrows were no longer effective.
Huo Jun soon came up with another method. She whispered a few words to the soldiers around her.
The soldiers left briefly and brought back a few people holding oil barrels and torches.
They poured oil on the battering ram according to Huo Jun's order, then threw the torches down.
The fire instantly soared three meters high!
In this way, Huo Jun set fire much faster than the Chi Rong people supplemented the battering ram!
Seeing Huo Jun easily repel the Chi Rong army's first wave of attacks, Yuan Deyi, Zhou Mingzhi, Lin Kui and others were very excited.
Looking at Qin Zhao's expression, they were a little proud.
Qin Zhao generously applauded Huo Jun, "Not bad for General Huo, very smart."
Yuan Deyi and Zhou Mingzhi were slightly surprised.
Qin Zhao said, "You don't have to be surprised. Although I don't agree with your strategy, I also hope that General Huo will win. After all, she is defending the Yue Country's territory."
Huo Jun replied, "Your Highness cares for the country wholeheartedly, which is a blessing for the people."
Yuan Deyi reminded: "General Huo, the stone throwing vehicles are here!"
Huo Jun ordered the soldiers downstairs to stay away from the city tower.
Soon, huge stones were thrown at the city wall piece by piece!
Fortunately, the city wall was thick and high enough, it just shook slightly and some debris fell off.
Perhaps the momentum accumulated by the stone throwing vehicles was not enough, and the stones could only reach three-quarters of the height of the city wall at most.
Yuan Deyi taunted, "Are the Chi Rong people not full, is that all they can do?"
Lin Kui yawned, "If they don't make any more progress, we'll want to go back to the tent and sleep."
"Hahahahaha!"
They laughed in unison.
Seeing that the stones thrown by the Chi Rong people were getting lower and lower, Yuan Deyi and others laughed so hard that their mouths couldn't close!
Huo Jun's expression was unclear with the mask on, but judging from her crossed arms, her mood should be relatively relaxed.
"Get out of the way!!"
A man's roar came, and their laughter stopped abruptly.
Qin Zhao looked in the direction of the voice and saw thousands of Chi Rong soldiers forming a matrix to make way.
A man over two meters tall and fat and strong walked over!
The Chi Rong people shouted his name in unison: "Tu Ge!"
He easily picked up a stone close to a hundred catties and put it in a pouch!
Then he walked to the front of the stone throwing vehicle, grasped the lever with both hands, and his body sank violently!
The boulder flew straight toward the city tower!
Qin Zhao estimated the throwing direction of the stone and pulled Qi Yan Su Luo aside.
Huo Jun also went to the other side, out of the range of the stone throwing vehicle.
Yuan Deyi and others still believed that the stone could not reach the top of the city tower, and stood still.
Huo Jun shouted, "Get out of the way!"
Yuan Deyi turned to Huo Jun with a smile and said, "What's there to hide from, no matter how capable he is, he can't throw stones up here..."
Before he finished speaking, bang!
Yuan Deyi was hit by the boulder, and the sound of his flesh and bones shattering stimulated the nerves of everyone present!
Lin Kui and Zhou Mingzhi, the two closest to Yuan Deyi, were splashed with minced meat!
The horror of the two men turned into substance, and screams rang out!
Qi Yan Su Luo covered Qin Zhao's ears.
The Chi Rong army under the city tower shouted Tu Ge's name even more fiercely!
"Tu Ge!"
"Tu Ge!!"
"Tu Ge!!!"
Tu Ge walked a few steps forward and gestured for the other stone throwers to stop throwing stones.
He shouted at the top of the city tower: "Who is the commander, come out!"
The few people who recovered from the shock looked at Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao gently pulled down Qi Yan Su Luo's hands and thanked her.
Then she said to Huo Jun: "You go."
Lin Kui, who was grieving and angry over Yuan Deyi's death, said with red eyes: "Isn't Your Highness the commander, why let others take the fall when encountering dangerous characters? This is not the style a commander should have!"
Zhou Mingzhi stopped Lin Kui and said, "Your Highness's life is precious, how can my humble life compare!"
Lin Kui laughed at himself and said, "Indeed, Your Highness's life is a life, and our lives are not worth mentioning. General Yuan died just like that without even a whole corpse. Yet Your Highness can still be so calm, isn't it because you rely on someone to die for you!"
"Commander Lin, watch your words!" Huo Jun rebuked, "General Yuan's death has nothing to do with Her Highness. He was too arrogant. As for you, if you talk nonsense again, you will be sentenced to death to atone for your family's involvement!"
Hearing Huo Jun's handsome and domineering remarks, Qin Zhao tried very hard to hold back her upturned lips.
After listening, Lin Kui endured the anger that was rushing up and lowered his head to retreat to the side.
Tu Ge's voice rang out again, "How long will you Yue cowards keep me waiting!"
The Chi Rong army echoed, "Coward!"
"Coward!!"
Just as they were about to continue shouting, Huo Jun walked a few steps forward to let Tu Ge below the city tower see her.
Seeing someone come out, Tu Ge taunted a few more times before saying, "Dare to fight me alone? If you lose, open the city gate!"
Huo Jun said, "You have been attacking the city for so long without any progress. We have the advantage, I don't need to take risks and fight you."
Tu Ge laughed loudly: "Hahahahahaha! A coward is a coward, good at making excuses! Hey, bring the people up!"
The Chi Rong soldiers brought out hundreds of people dressed in Yue Country clothes!
Tu Ge used his big hammer to smash a person's head at random, and said to Huo Jun, "If you don't fight, I will kill all these Yue people!"
Qin Zhao felt Qi Yan Su Luo's hand tremble slightly, and asked, "Is there anyone you know among them?"
Qi Yan Su Luo replied, "No, I just thought that the West Lin Country’s people are being treated the same way now, which doesn’t feel good."
"I said I would help you, wait a little longer for me."
Qi Yan Su Luo looked away and no longer looked in the direction of the prisoners.
Upon receiving the provocation, Huo Jun did not respond immediately, but carefully observed those Yue people instead.
Tu Ge didn't have the patience to wait for her to consider, and hammered and killed several people in succession.
Zhou Mingzhi said, "General Huo, if you don't go down again, the commoners will be killed by him. If this matter spreads out, it will affect the reputation of the Northwestern Army! Please make a decision as soon as possible!"
The soldiers on the top of the city tower were also closely watching Huo Jun.
They didn't care about the reputation of the Northwestern Army. They just wanted to see the extremely arrogant barbarian under them make a fool of himself.
Qin Zhao realized that there was something strange about those prisoners!
First, their physique. No matter whether they were men, women, old or young, they were more sturdy than the border residents Qin Zhao had seen along the way.
Secondly, when they were hammered to death by Tu Ge, few of them screamed or resisted.
It was as if they were mentally prepared!
And the Chi Rong army, which had been very supportive of Tu Ge's actions, did not cheer as before when he killed the prisoners.
All signs indicated that the so-called Yue captives were likely to be Chi Rong people in disguise!
After Tu Ge pounded the twelfth person to death, Huo Jun spoke, "Those people are not my Yue people."
Qin Zhao secretly admired Huo Jun's wit. She really didn't see the wrong person!
But Lin Kui did not think so. He said, "General Huo, are you afraid?"
Although Lin Kui was more supportive of Huo Jun than the princess, the competition between men would not disappear just because they belonged to the same camp.
It was so rare to be able to suppress Huo Jun, the famously mighty general, how could he let it pass?
Huo Jun said, "That's right, I'm afraid. Commander Lin, what do you mean by that, are you not afraid?"
Qin Zhao stood still shortly after, and Qi Yan Su Luo appeared by her side.
Qin Zhao held her hand and said, "Stay behind me if anything happens, I will protect you."
Qi Yan Su Luo neither agreed nor disagreed, she just held Qin Zhao's hand in return.
