In the opinion of the Underworld's Viceroy, the situation hadn't changed much, even though they had mobilized 50,000 soldiers.
The Underworld soldiers who had rushed up the city walls still couldn't escape the fate of being killed in the end. However, the number of Underworld soldiers that had rushed up the city walls had slowly increased.
"Don't worry, Viceroy. There will definitely be sacrifices when attacking a city, but the most important thing is whether these sacrifices are worth it." The Deputy Viceroy smiled.
Previously, the 20,000 Underworld soldiers that the Viceroy had sent out had attacked without any planning at all. Although so many Underworld soldiers had rushed up the city walls, the Underworld soldiers themselves were in a state of disunity. Even if they had rushed up, they would have been killed by the defenders.
However, things were different now. Although the defenders of Mount Wulai still had the upper hand, more and more Nether Soldiers were rushing up the city walls from the back. Moreover, these Nether Soldiers had banded together and were beginning to show a certain level of combat power.
As long as the Underworld soldiers that had rushed up the city walls weren't immediately killed by the defenders of Mount Wulai, they still had a lot of opportunities. As more and more Underworld soldiers climbed up the city walls, the pressure on the defenders of Mount Wulai increased.
Coupled with the fact that a portion of the defenders were still resisting the attacks of the Underworld soldiers at the city gates, their situation was getting worse.
"Everyone, you must hang in there. A huge reward is right in front of us. As long as we hang in there, you will get what you want!" The commander of the North City Gate saw that more and more Underworld soldiers were rushing up the city walls, and more and more defenders were falling. This wasn't a good situation.
What he had been looking forward to the most were the 200,000 reinforcements. The Underworld army had already launched their second attack on the city, but they still hadn't appeared. This made him start to doubt whether the news that the Viceroy had told him was true or not.
After all, this was a common occurrence in war, and the purpose of this was to raise morale. If everyone knew that they hadn't received any reinforcements, then they would have already lost half of the war before it had even begun.
Therefore, the fact that they hadn't seen any reinforcements made him a little worried. The Viceroy couldn't be lying to them. There were no reinforcements at all, let alone 200,000.
Actually, when he had first heard the news, he had also thought that it was fake. After all, 200,000 soldiers was not a small number, especially for Mount Wulai.
Although he was only a lieutenant, he had a rough idea of how many soldiers Mount Wulai had. The entire Mount Wu Lai had less than a million soldiers, so 200,000 soldiers was a huge number for the Mount Wu Lai.
He could not believe that Lord Witch Jiang would send an army of two hundred thousand to reinforce a small Sun City. This in itself was suspicious.
However, at this moment, he couldn't show it even if he started to doubt it. Because at this moment, only he could raise the morale of these ghost soldiers.
Of the seventy thousand soldiers in the city, thirty thousand were stationed at the north gate. It could be said that guarding the north gate was equivalent to guarding Sun Moon City. If the north gate was breached, then the entire Mount Wu Lai army would be annihilated by the hundreds of thousands of Underworld soldiers, just like when they had charged into Sun Moon City.
Therefore, he absolutely could not allow himself to become the Netherworld Soldier of the past. They had to persevere.
"Everyone, you must hold on! Our reinforcements are about to arrive. As long as you hold on for a little longer, they will all be annihilated by our reinforcements!" the Ghost Lord roared frantically once again.
When the ghost soldiers of Mount Wu Lai saw that their lieutenant was so brave and fierce that he had killed several Underworld soldiers in a row, their hearts began to boil again. They fought desperately against the Underworld soldiers that were charging at them.
However, more and more Underworld soldiers were charging at them. They wanted to kill these Underworld soldiers as easily as before.
Many of the defending soldiers had already started to fight with the Underworld soldiers. No one could tolerate the other!
"Kill them all! Kill all the Underworld soldiers for me! " While the defending soldiers of Mount Wu Lai were still holding on, the Governor's 10,000 Personal Guards appeared behind them, although they did not receive the 200,000 reinforcements that they had been waiting for.
The Governor personally led the 10,000 Personal Guards up the city gate tower and attacked the Underworld soldiers.
"The Governor has personally come to support us. Brothers, kill them with all your might. Kill these damned Underworld soldiers!" The Ghost Lord was overjoyed when he saw that the Governor had brought 10,000 Personal Guards with him.
At that moment, he clearly felt that he had not been able to raise the morale of the soldiers enough. Many of the ghost soldiers had begun to grow suspicious because they had not seen any reinforcements for a long time.
However, the Governor had appeared at that moment. The Governor was the faith of the entire Sun Moon City army. As long as the Governor was around, the morale of the ghost soldiers would continue to be high.
"The Governor has come. Let's fight for the Governor!" Sure enough, the appearance of the Governor and the addition of the 10,000 Personal Guards boosted the morale of the Mount Wu Lai army. The ghost soldiers became even more courageous in killing the enemy.
"Deputy Governor, is this what you meant when you said that the city is about to fall? If this goes on, we will have no more soldiers to send! "At that moment, the Underworld's Governor, who was outside the city, could no longer sit still.
They had indeed killed a lot of Mount Wu Lai's soldiers during this siege, but they had suffered even greater losses. Moreover, when they saw that there seemed to be more Mount Wu Lai's ghost soldiers on the city gate tower and that many of the Underworld soldiers on the city gate tower had been killed in an instant, he became extremely anxious.
Although he felt that this plan had been proposed by the Deputy Governor, if they were to lose this battle again, their losses would be too great. This would not be beneficial to their next siege plan.
"Don't worry, Governor. Although the number of their soldiers has increased, this also proves that they are mobilizing soldiers from other places. Doesn't this mean that they don't have many soldiers left?
In my opinion, we should increase our military strength now so that the number of their soldiers will be depleted even faster! " The Deputy Governor was not as anxious, but he did not look as calm as before.
After all, since the beginning of the siege, they had indeed sacrificed a lot of Underworld soldiers. Almost half of them had already been sacrificed. In addition to the 10,000 Underworld soldiers that had been sacrificed during the first siege, there were now less than 110,000 Underworld soldiers left.
Of the 150,000 soldiers, they had already lost 40,000 during the attack on the north gate. However, this number was still increasing. After all, they had already sacrificed 40,000 Underworld soldiers, but they had yet to take down the north gate.
