"It should be reinforcements from Zhonghua Gate. Nothing to worry about.
The PN are so st*pid. We've already entered the city, and they still sent some troops to guard the gate.
While they're spread thin, let's hurry up and meet up with the PN Commander CH.
With forces inside and outside working together, I want to kill them all to release my anger," PN Officer Ma said angrily.
He had just roughly counted, and less than half of his soldiers were left.
"Alright, attack," PN General Su agreed, and led the 9th Division toward Zhonghua Gate.
On the way, they were blocked by troops. Since the enemy was out in the open and they were hidden, and the PN Soldiers were bunched together, a single shell caused serious casualties.
"St*pid! Everyone spread out and attack Zhonghua Gate! If you see a Rin person, kill them all!" PN General Su shouted, and the PN Soldiers quickly scattered.
PN General Su and PN Officer Ma followed the artillery unit along the main road toward Zhonghua Gate.
Soon, gunfire erupted from all directions.
Even though they couldn't see anyone, the sound of gunfire gave it away.
Their rifles made loud noises, and only a few other gun sounds were mixed in. But those didn't last long.
"Good, Rin people are very bad. We'll wipe them all out," PN General Su said with satisfaction.
PN Officer Ma was the first to rush into the city, but his 16th Division had suffered heavy losses. Those were all warriors of the empire.
But PN General Su's 9th Division was elite, so after today, who would get promoted to general was still uncertain.
PN General Su sat in the car, pleased with himself.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang..." A series of explosions shook the car.
"What happened?" PN General Su asked.
PN Officer Ma listened carefully. The last time he heard that sound, it cost him his artillery unit.
Sure enough, PN General Su's artillery unit was hit.
"Attack!" At the same time, a large number of soldiers suddenly appeared all around.
From rooftops, windows, and streets, shadows moved.
The warriors, holding steel rifles, faced the fierce PN Soldiers without fear. Every part of them burned with passion and the determination to kill.
"Snipers! Kill them all!" PN General Su raised his hand and gave the order.
"Bang." A bullet hit him right between the eyes. PN General Su fell before PN Officer Ma's shocked gaze.
"Kill them! Kill them all!" PN Officer Ma shouted from the car.
But he didn't dare to show his head anymore. They had sniper rifles.
The young warriors' eyes were shining with excitement. After so many days, they could finally shoot the PN Soldiers.
They didn't care about their aim. With so many enemies in front of them, they were bound to hit someone.
The experienced soldiers, on the other hand, had calm, determined expressions filled with the joy of victory.
Their shooting was precise. Every shot hit a vital spot.
Screams filled the air. PN Soldiers' bodies were everywhere. Blood ran like rivers.
With the warriors' fierce attacks, the PN Soldiers threw down their weapons and ran in panic.
"Kill! Leave no one alive! The PN are too cunning. If you leave them breathing, they'll bite you back!"
Someone shouted from the crowd.
So the fleeing PN Soldiers became the perfect moving targets for the new recruits.
The older soldiers even gave them tips on their mistakes.
PN Officer Ma watched the soldiers around him fall one by one. Hiding in the car, he didn't dare to come out.
He just hoped everyone in the darkness would ignore him, to not even notice him.
Unfortunately, his wish was doomed to fail.
There was no way Paige would leave such a big enemy alive.
She pulled the pin on a grenade and threw it directly onto the vehicle.
With a loud "boom," the world fell silent.
A small group was left behind to clean up the battlefield, while the rest rushed toward the next one. That's where the real battle would begin.
Over there, many more PN Soldiers were gathered, far more than all the ones they'd just faced combined.
And they were all elite troops. In contrast, their own side mostly had new recruits.
The ones who had died earlier at other city gates also got back up.
They crept through the dark to wipe out the remaining PN Soldiers outside the city, to stop them from sending any messages.
Then they closed the gates again and prepared for battle once more.
With the intense gunfire inside the city, the attacks outside grew even more fierce.
Defending the city was extremely difficult.
Finally, after the gunfire inside the city gradually stopped, the defenders collapsed under the pressure and died.
With a loud rumble, the city gate was broken through, and the PN Soldiers rushed in like a swarm.
"We finally broke through." As the highest-ranking commander of this battle, the pressure on him had been immense.
Especially after losing so many supplies for no reason.
If he couldn't take the city, not even the royal family could save him when he got back.
"Pass the word. Because the campgrounds outside the city are insufficient, the soldiers haven't had proper rest for a long time.
Now, everyone can choose anywhere in the city to camp." The highest commander spoke to the person outside the gate.
"Yes." The person outside immediately left to deliver the order.
"St*pid Rin people. I'll make you pay for your resistance. Tomorrow, all of you will regret it."
"Let's go. I want to check out the Governor's Office and enjoy the highest-level treatment." As the overall commander of this operation, PN Leader Sa led a group straight into the city.
Normally, as the top commander, he shouldn't have entered the city and put himself in danger.
Even though the gate was broken, there could still be people resisting inside.
A smart leader would wait until the area was cleared of danger before going in.
But PN Leader Sa believed that since all three gates were taken, no one inside could cause trouble anymore.
The battle in Hushi had been frustrating. He never expected the Rin people to be so tough, making them fight so hard to win.
Plus, he was scolded yesterday and now stood at the edge of a breakdown, needing a way to vent.
He wanted to see blood, to see the miserable fate of those who resisted, only then could he release some of his anger.
So despite others warning him not to, PN Leader Sa brought a large force with him and went into the city.
Inside the city, smoke filled the air, and gunfire, fighting, and explosions echoed everywhere.
PN Leader Sa started to regret his decision. He shouldn't have been so reckless.
But with rows of PN Soldiers on both sides of the road and a large group surrounding him, he couldn't retreat.
He looked at the heavily armed soldiers around him and tried to comfort himself. It was fine. He was already the victor.
Others were running for their lives. Who would still have the strength to come back and kill him?
Besides, the people around him and all these weapons weren't just for show.
