At this time, at the north gate.

"The soldiers are killing the enemy on the battlefield, are we just going to sit here and watch?"

"Although we have the advantage now, most of us are not Xuanshi, so we can't cause much damage to the demons. It won't be long before the demons counterattack again."

Since demons are relatively large, with thick skin and flesh, and their armor is particularly hard, they are difficult to kill. Although humans now have an advantage in numbers, sometimes it may take ten mortals to seriously injure a demon, while one demon can easily take the lives of ten mortals.

At this time, the central battlefield was filled with fires and the battlefield was devastated everywhere. The soldiers' clothes were burned, but they did not care. Instead, they picked up the iron swords in their hands and slashed at the demons again.

At this time, Dong Ying, who was assigned to guard the west gate, saw the tragic scene on the central battlefield through the trenches and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "In the face of war, life is as fragile as a joke."

At this time, Dong Ying looked at Song Mu beside him and said jokingly: "Mu! Do you have any wish?"

Song Mu answered seriously, "I just hope to survive, and then return to my hometown to marry my eldest sister, and then have children to continue the family line and provide for the two elderly people in their old age."

Dongying couldn't help but think of Xiaoyanzi and his parents. After a long silence, Dongying asked, "Where is your hometown?"

"My hometown! It's in Longzhou."

"Longzhou? It's so far away. Your hometown is in Longzhou. How did you get caught and brought to Zhongzhou?"

"Oh, they said that Zhongzhou is more profitable, so I came here in a daze with a few good brothers."

"You actually have a few brothers, where are they? Introduce them to me, maybe we can have some fun together."

"They are all dead!"

Dong Ying was stunned when he heard this, then he put away his joking expression and said apologetically: "I'm sorry!"

"It's okay. They are heroes protecting the Imperial City just like all of us here, so their deaths will not be in vain."

"Yes! They are all heroes who protect others. It won't be meaningless."

At the same time, after a fierce battle between the army led by Yuesha and the army of the demons in the central battlefield, both sides suffered heavy losses. However, the demons had a steady supply of support troops while Yuesha did not.

This situation continued until dawn, and soon the advantage of the demons was revealed. They stood their ground from their original defeat and then slowly rushed towards the city gate.

Soon, Yue Sha saw that he was no match for the enemy, so he led the troops that had gone out to fight to retreat towards the imperial city. At this time, Yue Sha ordered all the city gates to be closed.

A messenger soldier ran quickly above the imperial city and shouted loudly.

"The general has ordered! All gates must be closed. The general has ordered! All gates must be closed..."

After receiving the order, Dongying and his group immediately closed the door again.

At this time, Yuesha gave the order.

"Pass my order and have the soldiers on the warships rush down to cover the injured and exhausted troops and withdraw them back to the city."

Another group of soldiers came down from the war flying boat. They replaced the original group of soldiers who killed the demons and formed a new force to cover the soldiers who had come down to fight before and returned to the city.

At the same time, Yuesha decided to open the west gate and send back the injured people.

"Pass on my order. Tell the people at the west gate to open the gate. Send more people. Tell the people guarding the west gate to concentrate all their energy and guard the gate until all the wounded troops are evacuated back to the city."

Afterwards, the group of people who were more injured were sent back, and then the door was opened again to pull the people back.

At this time, Song Mu looked into the distance and found that there were hundreds of wounded soldiers crawling towards the west gate. He immediately ran out and came to a soldier covered in blood. He held a wounded soldier in each hand and dragged them back into the city gate.

"There are still many injured brothers outside, they are not dead yet! Come out and rescue them quickly..."

The earth-shaking sound of rushing movement was heard again on the plain. A group of humans suddenly appeared from the right. They rushed quickly towards the back of the demons. They were the backup arranged by Yuesha. He ordered these masters to buy time for the injured to return to the city.

At the same time, the demon soldiers in the central battlefield were divided into three groups, surrounding this group of humans from the front, left and right. The archers on the north gate could only watch this group of people fall under the bloody claws of the demons, but they were powerless to do anything.

The people on the city wall saw that some of the people below the central battlefield might be their brothers or sisters or fathers.

The soldiers on the city wall or guarding the city gate had tears in their eyes, then they clenched the bow in their hands, waiting for the general's order.

They used all their strength to pull the bows to the full extent and must not let the deaths of their relatives bleeding below be in vain. At this time, General Yuesha gave the order!

"Release the bow and arrow."

Because Yuesha saw that most of the injured had retreated back to the city towards the west gate, he then ordered the soldiers on the central battlefield to retreat to the war boats and then ordered them to use bows and arrows to provide cover.

At the same time, Dongying Street under the West City Gate ordered the West City Gate to be slowly opened again. Dongying stood outside the West City Gate, looking at the demons gradually surrounding them with an embarrassed look on his face and said, "Mu, you can see that the demons are densely packed in the distance. We are moving too slowly. I estimate that the demons will rush over before all the wounded can enter the city."

Song Mu placed his right hand on Dong Ying's right shoulder, and then said earnestly: "Let's just listen to fate and do our best to fulfill our duties, and leave the rest to those big shots!"

When the demons saw an opportunity, they immediately sent out several of their fastest demons, who quickly rushed towards the west gate from a distance.

A group of small demons that flew faster rushed towards the west city gate from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Therefore, Dongying and others did not react at the first time. Instead, after they rushed over, they found that a group of demons were already very close inside the city gate.

At the same time, there were other soldiers guarding the west gate except Dongying.

There was also an older veteran. Although he usually disliked Dong Ying, when it came to a life-and-death situation, he stood up resolutely.

"Brothers, if we let the demons into the city, our wives, children, parents and fathers will be humiliated and enslaved by them. If we take a step back, our homes will be destroyed without any bottom line. So we cannot fall."

While the old man was talking, Dongying ran to an old willow tree, then dug desperately underneath, and soon took out the buried Lioyuan Spear in his hand.

"This time, we live and die together."

Lao Liu rushed forward immediately when he saw the situation.

At the same time, Yue Zi, who was rescued by everyone, was watching beside the willow tree. Dong Ying dug out a spear, and then returned to the west gate. Yue Zi's eyes were empty at this time, because she was very guilty. Looking at the people not far away, ready to fight to the death again, she watched indifferently under the willow tree.

Before Dongying left, he looked at Yuezi lying under the willow tree like a little brother who had lost his soul, and then he said comfortingly: "I learned about your situation from Laoliu. Don't feel guilty. It is right to live. They respect their boss and several brothers."

At this time, Dongying only knew that Yue Zi was an arrogant little brother, and did not know that Yue Zi's true identity was a girl and a princess.

When Dongying returned to the west city gate, he saw that the demons had already started fighting with Song Mu, Lao Liu and his group. He then rushed over, kicked a small demon away, dragged the last injured person into the city, and then resolutely rushed to the front of the battlefield.

Yue Zi saw that one of the guards at the west gate was charging particularly fiercely, and that was Dong Ying.

Dongying no longer has the confused image he had before, and now he only has the calmness that comes from surviving frequent fights.
