Chapter 231: The enemy attacked again, and a melee on the city wall
"Emperor! It's bad! The army of the Great Zhou went to seize the natural barrier. Our army wanted to surround them, but was repelled and suffered heavy losses!"
Upon hearing this, Cyrus the Great laughed instead of getting angry, "Oh? Interesting. It seems that there are still capable people among the generals of the Great Zhou."
"It seems that we have to be a little more serious."
He paused, then decisively ordered: "Pass the order down, the borders around Da Zhou are now undermanned, it is the best time for us to attack, the whole army will attack, flatten the borders!"
"Kill!"
The morale of the Persian army was immediately boosted, and they rushed towards the border city wall like a tide.
On the city floor.
Chu Yang was extremely shocked as he looked at the densely packed Persian army in the distance.
"Humph, you want to break into my city? Do you really think this city wall is a joke?"
"Your Highness, the Persians are coming aggressively. How should we respond?"
Zhang Liang walked up to Chu Yang and asked with a serious expression.
"Don't worry sir, I have already arranged it."
Chu Yang said confidently, "Pass the order down, archers, get ready, wait for my order, and shoot hard!"
"promise!"
The Great Zhou soldiers on the city wall had already made preparations. Upon hearing Chu Yang's order, they drew their bows and arrows and aimed at the Persian army below the city.
"Fire arrows!"
Following Chu Yang's order, a rain of arrows swept across the sky and shot towards the Persian army under the city.
"what!"
"what!"
Waves of screams were heard, and the Persian soldiers at the front were shot by arrows and fell to the ground one after another.
However, the Persian army was large in number and they fought bravely without fear of death.
"Your Highness, the Persians have already reached the city walls. What should we do?"
Zhang Liang asked anxiously.
"Don't panic, sir. Pass the order down. Prepare the rolling logs and pounding stones. Hit them hard!"
"promise!"
Following Chu Yang's order, bursts of shouts and cries of killing suddenly rang out from the city wall.
Huge logs and battering rams rolled down from the city walls, causing brains to burst and blood and flesh to fly everywhere.
"what!"
"what!"
The screams and shouts of killing shook the earth.
However, the Persian army still did not retreat. They braved the rain of arrows, rolling logs, and pounding stones, and frantically attacked the city gate.
"Kill! Break through the city gates and kill all the people of Da Zhou!"
"Come on!"
More and more Persian soldiers rushed onto the city walls and engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Zhou soldiers.
"kill!"
Chu Yang, holding a long sword, led the charge into the enemy formation like a tiger coming down a mountain. Wherever he passed, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and no one could stop him.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
When the soldiers of the Great Zhou saw Chu Yang leading the charge, their morale immediately rose and they fought bravely, engaging in a desperate battle with the Persian army.
however,
The Persian army was large in number and their offensive was getting more and more fierce. Gradually, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty could no longer resist.
"Your Highness, hurry up and leave. We can't hold on any longer! The enemy has already climbed onto the city wall!"
At this time Zhang Liang dissuaded him.
Han Xin also came to Chu Yang with his personal soldiers at the first opportunity.
"Your Highness, retreat!"
Han Xin's voice was deafening, sobering Chu Yang up a little from his frenzy of killing.
"hold on!"
Chu Yang wiped the blood plasma that splashed on his face and shouted hoarsely, "Reinforcements will be here soon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he chopped down a Persian soldier who was trying to launch a sneak attack on him with his sword.
The soldier screamed and fell from the city wall. He was quickly swallowed up by the surging enemy army and disappeared without a trace.
Han Xin was extremely anxious when he saw Chu Yang refused to leave, but he also knew that this was not the time to persuade him. He could only grit his teeth and wave his sword, protecting Chu Yang and defending him from attacks from all directions.
The personal soldiers were even more fearless and surrounded Chu Yang like a solid wall, fighting desperately against the frenzied attack of the Persian soldiers.
For a while.
The battle on the city wall has reached a fever pitch.
Broken limbs and arms were everywhere, and the strong smell of blood filled the air.
Just when Chu Yang was about to lose his patience, bursts of rumbling horse hooves suddenly came from afar, echoing in the night sky like muffled thunder.
"coming!"
"Cavalry, it's cavalry!"
Chu Yang perked up and looked up quickly.
Under the cover of night, a cavalry team of nearly 10,000 people were galloping towards this side.
Holding torches high, they charged towards the inrushing Persian army like a fire dragon.
"Kill!"
Amid the deafening shouts and cries of killing, the cavalry troops were like sharp knives, tearing through the Persian army's formation in an instant.
"Reinforcements are coming! Brothers, kill them!"
The soldiers on the tower were greatly encouraged when they saw the arrival of the reinforcements.
"Your Highness, these are the reinforcements from heroes from all sides!"
Han Xin also saw hope and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"Alright! Since the cavalry is here, let's charge! Pass the order down, open the city gates, and the cavalry will follow me and charge out!"
Chu Yang's eyes flashed with brilliance as he gave the order loudly.
"Yes!"
"Boom!"
The heavy city gate slowly opened, and Chu Yang took the lead, rushing out with his 3,000 cavalrymen.
Seeing Chu Yang leading his troops to charge out, the tens of thousands of cavalrymen who had just arrived followed closely behind!
"Kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Amid the deafening shouts of killing, Chu Yang led the cavalry team with unstoppable force, and no one could stop them wherever they went.
"Damn it! Where did the reinforcements from the Great Zhou come from?"
"Quick! Stop them!"
When the Persian generals saw Chu Yang and others suddenly rushing out, they were immediately horrified and shouted angrily to command their soldiers to resist.
however.
Under the leadership of Chu Yang, the more than 10,000 cavalry troops of the Great Zhou were like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable. The resistance of the Persian soldiers was completely useless and they were quickly overwhelmed and routed.
"Haha! It feels so good! It feels so good!"
Chu Yang was like a madman, swinging the spear in his hand continuously, and every swing would take away lives.
"Your Highness! Don't chase after a desperate enemy!"
Seeing Chu Yang was in high spirits of killing, Han Xin quickly spoke out to remind him.
"Ok?"
Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses from the pleasure of killing.
He looked around and saw that the originally densely packed Persian army had now been routed, with only corpses and wailing wounded soldiers lying on the ground.
"Pass the order down, withdraw to the border and count the casualties!"
Chu Yang ordered loudly.
"Yes!"
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
Han Xin rode his horse to Chu Yang and asked with concern.
"I am fine."
Chu Yang shook his head and looked at his bloody hands, a trace of fatigue flashed in his eyes.
"Your Highness, please go down and rest for a while. Leave this to me."
"Alright."
Chu Yang nodded, and then, under the protection of his personal soldiers, he rushed towards the city.
"Your Highness, I am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me!"
at this time.
A loud voice came from a distance.
Chu Yang turned his head and saw Zhang Liao and Xing Daorong, along with a team of cavalry, rushing over in a dusty manner.
"General Zhang! General Xing!"
