Chapter 324 Siege
Tang Yu used to be a very impatient person; he hated things happening repeatedly.
Even if it happens more than twice, he will feel impatient.
But this time, in order to end this war, and to make these people who were coerced into it...
Throughout this battle, Tang Yu mediated repeatedly.
They desperately wanted to nip this battle in the bud.
Ye Tian's expression changed at this moment; he never expected Tang Yu to pull this stunt.
After all, in military strategy, winning hearts and minds is the best approach, while conquering cities is the second best.
Tang Yu was clearly attacking the Yin-Yang School's core principles.
The soldiers behind him, including the one whose name was called, also gaped with tears in their eyes.
“I knew my mother would look for me when I left.”
"Mother, I'm sorry, I've hurt you, I'm an unfilial son."
This man opened his mouth wide and burst into tears.
The others whose names were called also lowered their heads and remained silent.
They looked at Tang Yu, just about to react.
Unexpectedly, Ye Tian turned around at the dock and returned to their side, saying something.
"Don't worry, your parents and relatives will be taken very well by my Yin-Yang family."
"When we conquer Handan, we will send you to see their national advisor."
"Tang Yu is just trying to mislead people; you mustn't believe him."
Ye Tian anxiously tried to stop them. Frankly, if this weren't in public...
He even wanted to kill these people outright; he's utterly useless and more likely to cause trouble than achieve anything.
However, the arrow is already on the bowstring.
"It would be inappropriate to execute a general on the eve of battle," Tang Yu said earnestly.
"The Yin-Yang School people are all frauds, but perhaps they do have some real skills."
"But they are going against the times and defying destiny."
"In the end, they will all be swallowed up by this era, so please don't go down the wrong path with them."
"Please return to the right path, everyone."
Tang Yu spoke with unusual seriousness, trying his best to dissuade the residents.
However, these people have been subjected to various forms of brainwashing by them for the past ten years or so.
In addition, they ate and lived together, and the Yin-Yang School instilled various concepts in them on a daily basis.
After spreading the idea that they are the saviors of the world, the ones who will set things right and change destiny.
These people already feel a sense of invasion.
They hesitated at this moment, but Ye Tian did not give them a chance to ask again.
He pointed the spear in his hand forward.
"kill."
Instantly, upon his command, the group obeyed instinctively.
They began to move forward.
On the city wall, Tang Yu saw this scene and closed his eyes in anguish.
He knew it was too late to say anything now; he could have used the Gatling gun to quell the war.
He believed that in the face of his Gatling gun, this group of flesh and blood was nothing more than chickens and dogs.
But that was simply not worth it, Tang Yu saw that some people had already begun to attack the city.
And since none of his own soldiers had been injured or killed, he was still hesitating.
Meanwhile, many students were engrossed in reading the materials in their hands.
They never imagined that this group of people who were coming to attack Handan City would have such a tragic past.
From this perspective, the culprits are all members of the Yin-Yang School.
They spontaneously called out individual names from atop the city wall, such as Li Songyan and Xu Jiang.
When these names were called out, they clearly saw that many of the soldiers attacking the city showed unusual movements.
Unfortunately, they may genuinely want to know the truth and want to rebel.
However, those behind them gave them no chance, and they all died under the footsteps of the attackers who came after them.
Those who were trampled to death did not know the final whereabouts of their loved ones until their last breath.
No one knew how much harm these Yin-Yang School people had caused them.
"Boom, boom."
Huge stones were thrown down from the city walls, and logs were pushed down one after another.
Many of the rebels who attacked Handan City were instantly killed or seriously wounded.
The offensive improved significantly for a moment, but unfortunately, the next second another towering ladder was placed on the city wall.
There were simply too many people; they couldn't possibly kill them all.
Tang Yu and his group had prepared items such as boiling water, hot oil, gold branches, rolling logs, and saw teeth in advance.
However, there will eventually come a time when it runs out of resources, and it seems that there are truly no endless numbers of people to kill.
"It's burning me!"
A bucket of hot oil was poured on them, and instantly all the rebels on the ladder, from the first to the last, fell down.
Moreover, the siege ladders were naturally overthrown by the soldiers defending the city.
However, at this moment, the soldiers guarding the city looked increasingly anxious.
They had held out in this battle for half an hour, and half an hour of physical exertion was extremely high.
However, the number of people coming to attack the city was still unusually large, and they clearly had no intention of stopping in the slightest.
Moreover, their reserves are running low, and they have more and more brothers.
They were injured by occasional stray arrows, but fortunately no one has died.
"Your Excellency, what should we do?"
Shen Lang came to Tang Yu's side. His face was covered in blood. He and the Imperial Guards were playing the role of putting out the fire and rescuing people.
When someone is about to reach the top of a city wall, Shen Lang will go over and kill them with a single strike.
The bloodstains on his face were from when he killed the sixth person.
Seeing this scene, Tang Yu finally walked down the city wall with an indifferent expression and came to the city gate.
Everyone stared at Tang Yu in shock, unaware of the life-or-death situation that was unfolding at this critical moment.
Tang Yu was the backbone of the entire city of Handan and the spiritual pillar of the city's defense.
"What is he doing downstairs? Is he trying to run away?"
"Impossible, the Grand Preceptor is definitely not that kind of person."
But everyone was curious why Tang Yu didn't step forward to command and fight at this time.
So what was his purpose in coming down here? He glanced around at the residents of Handan City.
Tang Yu learned about the officials and nobles as well.
To determine which part of their crimes should be punished, we must wait until Handan is saved.
Then, Tang Yu looked at the soldiers fighting bravely and said in a low voice.
"Gentlemen, part of the reason for today's disaster is because of me, Tang Yu."
“In that case, I, Tang Yu, have a responsibility to put an end to this disaster here, and Handan City will certainly not be breached.”
“Every soldier defending our city is outstanding, and I will never let you face unnecessary sacrifice.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark-colored mechanical beast appeared in front of Tang Yu.
