The golden afterglow shines on the tall and majestic city wall, sketching a cruel and tragic picture.
There was a flag on the top of the city, the flagpole was tilted this way and that, and the incomplete cloth was swaying in the wind.
Under the city wall, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and corpses piled up in mountains.
Crows circled in the sky, making hoarse cries, but they did not dare to come down to look for food.
The charred dirt was littered with yellow and orange bullet casings, as well as numerous sticky substances that could not be distinguished from pieces of meat or organs.
The trenches were filled with corpses, lying in various directions, with the fear of death still on their faces.
Every inch of the battlefield seemed to have been watered with blood.
From morning to evening, the desert army launched five large-scale attacks and hundreds of charges.
With a firm will to fight and the protection of the city walls, the army and people of Tezera successfully blocked the first four attacks.
And now, it's the end of the fifth time...
Somewhere on the battlefield, a war puppet several stories high was slowly moving forward. The iron-wrapped body was damaged in many places, revealing the brass gears rotating inside.
Heavy iron boots crossed the trench, leaving a deep footprint.
As soon as the huge figure moved over, several heads popped out of the trench filled with corpses.
"The Iron Demon's host was not found!"
said one of the soldiers with a telescope.
Iron Demon, a type of war puppet, has mechanical demon attributes, an iron shell, an internal mechanical structure, and copper skin and iron bones. It has extremely high defense capabilities, but like other war puppets, it has the disadvantage of slow movement.
"cover me!"
In just a moment, the leader among several people made a decision.
He is the commander of this infantry company, and out of the hundreds of people he originally had, there are only single digits left.
But he still did not give up the fight. He looked at the Iron Demon who had just passed above his head, clenched the tactical dagger in his hand, and his eyes lit up with a blue light.
The next second, the company commander flew towards the Iron Demon like an arrow.
At the same time, several teammates picked up submachine guns and fired at the surrounding Saudi soldiers.
The dagger glowed with a layer of blue light, and the blade became crystal clear, like a piece of blue ice.
The company commander rushed to the Iron Demon's feet, jumped up, pierced the iron skin of his hind legs with his dagger, and hung his body in mid-air.
His eyes focused on the Iron Demon's waist, where there was a breakage the size of a washbasin, revealing a large area of sparking mechanical parts.
The Iron Demon seemed to be aware of something strange, twisting his clumsy body in an attempt to throw off the sneak attacker.
The surrounding Saudi soldiers also noticed the situation here, turned their guns and shot at the company commander hanging on the Iron Demon.
"Cover the company commander!" "Fight these sand dogs!"
The defending soldiers shouted, rushed out of the trenches, and charged towards the enemy soldiers.
Bullets were flying back and forth, and soldiers on both sides continued to fall.
Taking advantage of the cover of his men, the company commander rushed up to the Iron Demon's waist and stuffed the bundled cluster explosives into the breach.
Seeing that Yu Ling was about to suffer a heavy blow, the host hiding in the dark finally couldn't bear to take action.
I saw a red light piercing the sky and sweeping towards the company commander.
"Blazing beam!"
The company commander's pupils shrank, a blue light glowed all over his body, and an invisible energy field spread out on his body. Then he crossed his arms and tried to block.
"boom!"
The red light swept past, and the arm where it collided exploded violently, and the company commander was thrown into the air.
Immediately after there was a loud noise, a large ball of flame exploded from the Iron Demon's waist, and his huge body tilted sideways with a creak.
"Damn it!"
The host of the Iron Demon cursed, put his two fingers together, and waved towards the battlefield, and a second red light burst out.
Facing the blazing beam of light that swept over rapidly, the company commander who had exhausted his spiritual energy was no longer able to resist, and his body and arms were cut into two pieces by the red light.
The chest and above were rolling in the air, and the cuts were like red-hot coals, followed by the smell of burnt meat. The lower half of the body stood alone, and then fell down when a gust of wind blew.
Although the opponent was killed, the Iron Demon host also exposed its target.
In the blink of an eye, several rays of blue light shot out from the top of the city, hitting the iron demon host and erupting into a strong ball of light.
The Iron Demon host mobilized all his strength and put up a shield to resist. But he only lasted a few seconds before he was penetrated by more and more blue lights and fell into a pool of blood.
A few minutes later, Saudi Arabia's fifth attack failed. Amidst the sound of retreating horns, the soldiers with white cloth on their heads disappeared like a tide.
With its thick city walls and the sacrifices of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, Baihu City held on for the first day.
As night falls, the smell of blood in the air becomes stronger and stronger and cannot be dissipated.
There were hunched and tired figures everywhere on the city wall, some sitting on the ground, some leaning against the wall. A sad and depressing atmosphere filled every inch of the space, making people feel suffocated.
I don’t know how long it took, but someone started singing.
The song is poignant and sad, as if telling the destruction of home and the farewell of relatives.
Gradually, some people began to sing along, and the singing became louder and louder, spreading throughout the city.
A tragic aura arises spontaneously, as if the road has come to an end, and there is darkness ahead, only destruction and silence.
Because everyone knew that without domestic support, Baihu City could not hold out for the third day.
Eighty percent of the men and ammunition had been expended.
The city will be broken tomorrow, there is no suspense.
Faced with the desperate situation of certain death, people instead look down on life and death and instead look for the last solace.
That is, to protect the faith and glory of the country!
At this time, Sanchahe City, thousands of kilometers away from here, was far away from the cruelty and noise of war, but the atmosphere was equally depressing.
There was a dead silence in the street, without the usual bustle and joy. There was a silence that sounded like the country was about to perish and the building was about to collapse.
In the tavern, the lights were dim and people were eating with their heads down. There was only the sound of the clinking of cutlery and plates and the news broadcast on the radio.
[Qingguo forces invaded ten city-states, and the Twin Great Walls were lost]
[Golden Lion City and Old City declare their separation from the United Kingdom of Ambergris River and declare war on the White Dragon City State! ]
[Relevant people pointed out that this Qingguo invasion may be related to former Prime Minister Chen Xing...]
"Can this all be blamed on me?" Chen Xing, who was eating, stopped and looked at the radio in disbelief.
[The following is an interview recording with relevant people]
["At that time, I was running a stall in Shin-Edo to make a living, but I didn't expect that it would be a disaster for me that night..."]
["Later I remembered that that was our Prime Minister. The woman he brought could summon steam armor and punched me until I vomited blood."]
["Later I found out that it was the Million Steam Iron Fist"]
[There is evidence that the former prime minister had a secret meeting with Zhao Ruoxi, the seventh princess of Qingguo, in New Edo]
[Are there some ulterior secrets hidden between the two of them? ]
[Although there is no definite evidence, the reason why the prime minister of one country secretly meets with the royal princess of another country is really intriguing]
"Boss, is it true what they said, that you slept with Princess Qingguo?" Xiao Yang asked cautiously across the table.
"What do you mean sleeping?" Chen Xing was so angry that he slapped the table and cursed, "Can you think of something better? We are just ordinary friends!"
"Boss, no matter what others say, I believe you." Seeing that Chen Xing was angry, Xiao Yang quickly comforted him.
"Forget it, I won't eat anymore." Chen Xing threw down his knife and fork and complained, "I'm so tired even after eating."
"Boss..." Xiao Yang's eyes flickered, as if he was hesitant to speak.
"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Chen Xing ordered.
Xiao Yang hesitated for a while, then plucked up the courage and said, "Boss, why don't you just admit your mistake."
Chen Xing got angry when he heard this, "Do I admit my mistake? What mistake do I admit! Who do I admit my mistake to?"
"Boss, don't get angry yet. Listen to my explanation. I just see that you are always unhappy..." Xiao Yang said with a smile.
"So you just want to make me more unhappy?" Chen Xing's eyes were filled with danger.
"I want to solve the problem for you." Xiao Yang said weakly.
"Solve the problem?" Chen Xing frowned, "Solve what problem?"
"My girlfriend was unhappy before. I didn't know why she was angry, so I apologized to her and said I was wrong and sorry, and she forgave me." Xiao Yang said with a little pride. He seems to be very confident and has a lot of knowledge and experience.
"No..." Chen Xing was stunned, "You want me to apologize to those women?"
"Is there something wrong with your brain?" Chen Xing couldn't help but cursed, "It's not me who's making the whole country miserable now, it's them!"
"I know it's not the boss's fault, but even if it's not our fault, we can still apologize..."
"What's your logic?" Chen Xing felt like he was almost speechless. "Do you think an apology can solve the problem?"
"Yes, apologizing can solve the problem. This is what I have done before. If my girlfriend is unhappy, I will apologize. If not, I can kneel down..." Xiao Yang said to himself, looking like he understood women very well. look like.
"Get a washboard and kneel on it, and women will soften their hearts and forgive..."
Chen Xing grabbed his hair and felt like he was going crazy. He no longer knows how to communicate with the other party.
Huo Zui and Pang Li, who were standing next to them, saw that something was not right in the atmosphere. They winked at each other, stood up at the same time, and dragged Xiao Yang out, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Assistant Yang, let's come out and have a chat." "Don't affect the boss's appetite for food."
"Boss, listen to me, just apologize, apologize..." Xiao Yang's voice gradually faded away, and the bar returned to silence.
Chen Xing pinched his eyebrows and felt a headache.
[The latest report from White Tiger City indicates that the casualties of Tazera’s military and civilians have reached 800,000...]
News broadcasts continued to sound on the radio, each news heavier than the last.
At the same time, on the street outside the tavern, two figures in cloaks stood on the dimly lit corner.
Judging from the body lines, they are female, one is tall and the other is toned.
A pair of beautiful eyes looked at the warm light coming from the small bar and remained silent for a long time.
Suddenly there was a sigh from behind, "Let's go..."
"The owner hasn't contacted us proactively, which means he doesn't want to see us yet."
"No man wants a woman to see his downtrodden side, and Master is no exception."
"Give the master some space to be alone."
"Um."
The tall woman nodded and followed the toned woman away from the street corner.
At night, the street lights are dim and the road is long.
