The soldiers retreated after the golden bell rang. Only three people from the Vermillion Bird Army and Azure Dragon Army were lightly injured. This was considered a complete victory for the cruel war.
The soldiers defended the first attack of the Xiongnu and won.
………….
"Ah! Trash, trash, a bunch of trash!"
In the main tent of the Xiongnu army camp, the Xiongnu commander was wearing clothes made of animal skin. There were some unknown beast teeth hanging around his neck, and there was a wound left by the claws of a beast on his forehead.
"Hmph, the 10,000 vanguard troops of the Xiongnu were really wiped out by these Xuan Yong border soldiers. How embarrassing, how embarrassing!”
The commander of the slayers had a ferocious expression. After he finished speaking, he was so angry that he pulled out the long knife on the knife rack and slashed at a captured citizen of Xuan Yong City behind him.
"Hiss ~"
In an instant, the Xiongnu commander's face was covered in the blood of the people of Xuanyong. He was like a wild beast, smelling the blood of the people of Xuanyong, and he was infinitely mesmerized and intoxicated.
He closed his eyes and raised his head, intoxicated by the bloodlust.
"Yes, yes, this is the feeling of blood.”
"The Xiongnu army and millions of demon seeds will attack. We will flatten the Northern Border City and attack Xuan Yong!”
The Xiongnu commander gave the order, and the 290,000 Xiongnu troops charged toward Northern Border City like caged beasts.
At the same time, millions of demonic seeds were released. They were all sinister and terrifying. They didn't look like humans, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
The demonic seed was divided into five levels from low to high, namely, Concealing Suffering, Enlightening Wisdom, Spirit Creation, Saint Realm, and Transcendence.
The highest level Transcendent Realm Demon Seed, like Sun Wukong, was extremely powerful and had a rich independent self-awareness.
Secondly, the Saint Realm Demon Seed was slightly weaker than the Transcendent Realm Demon Seed in terms of combat strength and self-awareness. However, its overall strength was also terrifying, such as the Ox Demon and Zhu Bajie.
Further down were the Spirit Creation realm demon seeds. They could take charge of an area alone and could even use some powerful spell attacks, but their self-consciousness was not completely independent.
Enlightenment level demon seeds had a muddled consciousness and barely passable strength. They had strong brute force, but their independent consciousness was still hatching.
There was also the last kind of suffering state, which was the most common. It had almost no consciousness and only had rough skin and thick flesh. It was a demon seed that specialized in being cannon fodder on the battlefield.
Among the millions of demon seeds that the Xiongnu commander brought over, most of them were in the suffering state. They had thick skin and flesh. They were used for the human wave tactic to kill Xuan Yong's Northern Border City.
Of course, there were also some Enlightenment Realm Demon Seeds that had less than a hundred people. The highest number was only a half-finished Demon Seed that was one step into the Spirit Creation Realm.
…………
The 290,000 Xiongnu army and one million demon seeds were a black mass that covered more than a thousand miles, pressing down from the distant horizon.
The northern territory, which should have been sunny and clear, was now covered in dark clouds and a murderous aura!
The base camp of the Xiongnu army was still 70 miles away from Xuan Yong's city. The army camp was not like the camp of the vanguard army. They had to pull the front line far away. Otherwise, if an accident happened, they would all be wiped out.
"Commander-in-chief, commander-in-chief, bad news!"
The commander of the Xiongnu army was riding on a black tiger and walking at the front of the team. Suddenly, a scout rushed over to report.
"Hmph, you can't hold it in at all. What's the big deal? Tell me quickly!”
The Xiongnu commander had a bad temper, and his ferocious expression pulled the beast claw wound on his forehead. For a moment, the scout was so nervous that he could not speak.
"One hundred thousand Great Tang soldiers suddenly charged out from our rear. They are incredibly ferocious and come and go like the wind. Our soldiers will find it difficult to stop them!”
the scout said anxiously.
"What?! The Great Tang had actually gotten involved as well? Where had those hundred thousand Great Tang soldiers gone to?”
The Xiongnu Lord blew his beard and glared at him handsomely. He tightly gripped the animal teeth hanging around his neck like a necklace.
Just attacking Xuan Yong was already very taxing, and he didn't even have much confidence. If the Great Tang joined in, the Xiongnu would surely be defeated.
"The Tang army is charging towards our rear. By now, they should have…"
The scout did not dare to say anything else.
The Xiongnu army had a large number of people, and the battle line was especially long. At this moment, a raging fire was burning at the back of the battle line, and black smoke surged into the sky.
At the back of the Xiongnu army were the troops responsible for transporting the provisions. The billowing smoke and dust reminded the Xiongnu commander over and over again that the provisions had indeed been burned by the Tang army.
Fortunately, the Great Tang had no intention of fighting to the death with the Xiongnu. After burning their rations, they hastily retreated.
"Ah!"
"Ah! I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"
The Xiongnu commander roared angrily. His eyes were filled with bloodlust as he looked around, but there was nowhere to vent his anger.
"How long can the army provisions last?”
"Reporting to the commander, although the rear grain storage has been burned, our central army still has a portion of grain, enough to support us for a month!”
After receiving the news, the Xiongnu commander seemed to see hope.
"Attack with all your forces and fight to the death. We must take down Northern Border City and attack Xuan Yong within a month!”
The Xiongnu army once again set off under the fierce battle cries of the Xiongnu army. They fought to the death and then came back to life, which could stimulate the Xiongnu's bloodlust.
……………
"Report…"
"Commander Hua, the entire Xiongnu army has moved out. With millions of demon seeds following them, it seems like they are going to fight to the death!”
The scout's expression was solemn. He knew how serious the situation was.
"Alright, I got it. I'll investigate and report again!”
In the main tent of the army in Northern Border City, Hua Mulan's face was solemn.
The entire Xiongnu army attacked, vowing to fight to the death. Currently, there were only 100,000 soldiers in Northern Border City. They might not even be able to hold on until Emperor Xuan Yong's reinforcements arrived, let alone face the enemy head-on!
"Commander Hua, we shouldn't take the initiative to attack. Our army should use the advantage of the high city to defend the city and pile up the enemy's corpses!”
Baili Shouyue and Kai had the same opinion. Now, they could only defend to the death. There was no other way.
"Gather the army and defend the city!"
