Time dragged on.
Over four hours had passed.
The battle had reached a complete deadlock, descending into a drawn-out tug-of-war. Many Qin Sharp Soldiers scaled the city walls, but the Han defenders fiercely resisted. Ultimately, the Han soldiers within the city cut them down. The relentless volleys of arrows continued between both sides.
Inside and outside the city, everything was dyed red with blood. Bodies were strewn everywhere, creating a crimson marsh outside the walls. The number of Sharp Warriors' bodies at the city gate was innumerable. Dozens of them pushed the Siege Hammer, battering the gates again and again, yet the gate held firm.
"Strong spirits!"
"Fire oil!"
"Kill!"
On the city walls, spirits were poured and flames were ignited. Countless Qin Sharp Soldiers were instantly turned into men of fire. This grim battle seemed to have no solution.
"Charge!"
"Break the city with all our might!"
"Follow me and kill!"
