「Beneath the North City Gate of Yanmen Pass.」
Ever since the great war began, all the houses had been cleared out. Xiao Mo had temporarily relocated the citizens to other areas, and the soldiers of the Northern Wilderness Army moved into the empty residences, allowing for more efficient deployment.
That night, before the sky began to lighten, the Northern Wilderness Army issued an order: all soldiers, aside from those guarding the walls, were to assemble at the North City Gate.
A soldier by the name of Chen Dong was, of course, among them, obeying the order and assembling early beneath the North City Gate.
Chen Dong sat on the ground, resting and taking occasional sips of water.
This was now the thirtieth day of the siege.
But there was still no word from the main force of the Northern Wilderness Army.
Chen Dong didn't know if the main army would arrive to reinforce them, even if he managed to survive today.
Besides...
'Can I really make it through today?'
