The battle between Fang Yun and Gou Bao had temporarily subsided. Except for the Pearl River Army, all the other armies had veterans guiding them before.
The soldiers of the Pearl River Army stood quietly on the drill ground, looking a little lonely.
After lunch, the 14 armies walked to the city wall under the leadership of the personnel of the Literary Sector Division.
When they walked to the city wall and looked up, they could clearly feel the height of the city wall. But after a few glances, their necks were sore.
There were not only lifts on the city wall, but also many gates at the bottom of the city wall.
Qu Tong said to the generals near Fang Yun, "We can take the lifts to close the city wall when it's not wartime. But now there's a battle on the city wall, so we can only take the stairs inside the city wall."
Then, the Qin army at the front changed their formation and entered a gate with 30 people in a row.
The 14 armies changed their formation one after another and began to run slowly into different gates.
Neat running sounds could be heard under the city wall.
The footsteps stepped on the ground and the hearts of every soldier.
The sound of running on the ground was nothing special in other people's ears. But to these soldiers, it was a sound that made them feel at ease. It meant that they were still alive and that their brothers were still there!
Fang Yun and the other generals had already dismounted and ran together with the soldiers. Soon, they entered the gate under the city wall.
It was very bright outside the city wall. When they entered the gate, their eyes became dim. After running for a few steps, Fang Yun got used to it.
On both sides of the gate were stairs leading to the top of the city wall.
Qu Tong said, "The army in front will go up the stairs from the left. Let's turn right."
Fang Yun turned right and saw a long stone staircase leading to the top of the city wall. The staircase was about 30 degrees, which meant that the entire staircase was four thousand feet long, almost two and a half miles long.
Climbing two and a half miles of stairs was very difficult for ordinary people, but all the soldiers kept running in small steps.
The stone staircase was divided into two parts. There was a smooth slope in the middle, which could be used to transport goods when the lifts were busy.
More than two million soldiers entered different gates and climbed different stairs.
Not long after, Fang Yun saw the exit in front of him, but like everyone else, his expression became exceptionally calm.
Fang Yun originally thought that the exit would be the same as the south side of the city wall of Jie Shan, where the sun was bright and the sky was clear. However, the strange thing was that the exit that connected to the city wall was not bright at all. Instead, it was very dark, as if there were dark clouds above. It was as if it was another world.
At the same time, a fishy smell spread from the entrance to the stairs. Fang Yun seemed to see a dark red river of blood washing down. He blinked and found that it was just an illusion.
The fishy smell entered his nose and rolled in his throat. It was like cotton wool stuck in his throat, making his throat itch and want to vomit. Fang Yun used his mind to block the smell with the help of the Grand Scholar's power.
"Blergh …"
The soldiers in front continued to climb the stairs while retching. Soon, someone threw up his lunch.
Above the stairs, thousands of soldiers began to vomit.
Fang Yun glanced at the soldiers in front and behind. He found that the old soldiers of Huayang Army and Shang Wu Army had faint smiles on their faces. Qu Tong and Jie Bingzhi also had the same smile on their faces.
Then, Fang Yun saw that not only were the ordinary soldiers vomiting, but some scholars and even scholars were also vomiting.
Qu Tong said loudly, "In order to save energy, don't use the power of talent and literary courage to block the smell of the outside world!"
Those scholars and scholars had to restrain their talent and literary courage. Then, they frowned. One of the scholars could not hold it in and began to vomit.
Fang Yun finally understood why the Literary Division did not allow the recruits to fight within three days. Instead, they wanted the recruits to watch the battle from the city wall for three days.
The soldiers in front retched as they ran. Not long after, Fang Yun rushed out of the stairs and officially stepped onto the city wall of Jie Shan Mountain.
Fang Yun walked forward while looking around.
On the east and west sides of the city wall of Jie Shan Mountain, there were two towering black mountains. However, the sky above was extremely strange.
The sky to the south of Jie Shan Mountain was clear and blue. A sun hung high in the sky. However, the sky to the north was occupied by a strange blood moon.
The blood red light intertwined with the sunlight. Together with the influence of various strange powers, the sky and earth were shrouded in a faint red mist.
The moment he saw the blood moon, Fang Yun knew that the demon world was to the north of the city wall.
The city wall of Jie Shan Mountain was one mile wide and a hundred miles long. Countless mechanisms were lined up in a row. Huge rocks were thrown around and thick arrows were shot. The sound of the mechanisms was like thunder.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Between the mechanisms and the edge of the city wall, millions of soldiers were scattered.
Swords and spears were like a forest. Arrows were like flying locusts. Battle poems were like rain. They either killed the barbarians who had just reached the city wall or landed outside the city to attack the barbarians outside the city.
After a few breaths, Fang Yun saw hundreds of huge black shadows flying from outside the city to the city wall. At the same time, a large number of scholars changed the direction of their attacks and attacked those black shadows.
Fang Yun took a closer look. Every black shadow was hundreds of barbarians connected together. He realized that they were thrown onto the city wall by the mechanisms of the demon world!
Fang Yun was stunned. This was the legendary 'barbarian boulder'. He had only seen it in books before. However, seeing the barbarians being thrown onto the city wall like boulders with his own eyes, he still found it hard to believe.
Most of the barbarian boulders were destroyed by the scholars or mechanisms guarding the city. However, there were more than ten barbarian boulders that were about to land on the ground.
Before landing on the city wall, each barbarian boulder was divided into hundreds of individuals and pounced on the nearest human. These barbarians were made up of Demon Commanders and Demon Generals. Occasionally, there were Demon Marquises mixed in. As soon as they landed, they caused a bloody storm.
"Kill!" The soldiers holding spears and axes shouted loudly and rushed towards the barbarians that landed on the city wall. They cooperated with the other scholars to surround and kill these barbarians at the fastest speed.
These barbarians that landed on the city wall were quickly killed. However, in just a few breaths, they had caused thousands of casualties to the human race.
The new soldiers were stunned. They could not imagine that the barbarians would use such a crazy attack. If it were the human race, they would all fall to their deaths.
After this round of barbarian boulders appeared, the new ones did not appear for a long time. Fang Yun was secretly relieved. He had heard that the mechanisms of the demon world were not as good as those of the human race. Every time the mechanism threw out a barbarian boulder, some parts would be damaged. A new mechanism would need to be replaced before it could continue. It was very time-consuming.
After a round of fierce battle, the smell of blood on the city wall was even stronger. Countless new soldiers covered their mouths and noses.
Fang Yun's face was gloomy. There were also new and old soldiers in the Pearl River Army. It was normal for the new soldiers to vomit. However, the old soldiers who had killed the barbarians vomited because of the smell of blood on the city wall. This meant that this place was not normal.
Fang Yun glanced at the city wall. He suddenly understood where the 'Blood City' that Shang Wu Hou mentioned was.
This place was the Blood City.
A large amount of blood seeped into the rocks that formed the city wall. The entire city wall was covered in dried blood. Every spot was so red that it was black. The smell of blood was mostly from the dried blood.
Fang Yun blinked. He felt that everyone on the city wall was shrouded in a bloody mist. Everyone was filled with murderous intent.
The smell of blood on the city wall pierced through the clouds.
