"Shoot!"
Under Lin Tian's command, a large number of arrows rained down upon the soldiers of the Arab Empire.
These fierce arrows also put immense pressure on the soldiers of the Arab Empire.
This was especially true for the 150,000 strong army charging from the rear.
They felt as if the attacks were specifically targeting them, constantly assaulting and hindering their advance.
Yet, at this moment, they were already close to the city gates of Lin Tian's stronghold. They had no retreat.
This presented many of them with a dilemma.
"What should we do? Should we keep charging forward?"
"It's too fierce. Our enemy's attacks are simply too ferocious. With our capabilities, we can't possibly withstand them. What should we do?"
"Their preparations are too thorough. If we continue to charge, we might face grave consequences!"
Many realized that if they continued to attack the city, they would inevitably face countless difficulties.
In fact, many among them might die on the battlefield, never to enter the city.
This was undoubtedly terrifying for many soldiers.
It caused many of them to hesitate, unsure whether they should continue their charge.
They also didn't know if they would achieve victory if they continued.
Therefore, many of them turned their gaze towards their generals.
And their generals were facing a difficult problem themselves.
He naturally felt the terror of the arrows and the giant firebombs from above, and at the same time, he deeply understood how powerful they were.
If he had a choice, he would have ordered his army to retreat right now.
Then, he would rest his army and consider other strategies.
But at this moment, he couldn't. He represented not just himself, nor just the soldiers beside him, but the entire Arab Empire.
These were the last great armies of the Arab Empire.
If they retreated now, the Arab Empire would be completely finished.
If they retreated at this moment, their army might never recover.
Under such circumstances, they would have neither the courage nor the ability to fight against Lin Tian's army again.
Therefore, this battle could undoubtedly be considered the final war for the Arab Empire.
Under such circumstances, every order he gave concerned the fate of their Arab Empire.
Because of this, he looked at the soldiers around him and gave his order:
"Continue the charge, all of you, keep charging!"
"We have no other retreat. Now, continuing the charge is our only path!"
"If we destroy our enemy, all of us will live. If we lose to our enemy, all of us will die!"
Upon hearing this, many fell silent.
They all feared death, so they all wanted to retreat.
But at this critical juncture of burning their bridges, they clearly had no room to retreat.
So, after exchanging glances, the hope in their eyes diminished considerably, and their expressions turned resolute.
"Since that is the case, we can only charge!"
"For the future of our Arab Empire, charge!"
"For the future of our family and friends behind us, charge!"
The soldiers of the Arab Empire mustered their courage at this moment.
They knew that many might die if they continued their charge.
But they still chose to charge.
In fact, their charge speed became even more ferocious than before.
This was something Lin Tian had not anticipated.
But since these people were charging, Lin Tian did not hesitate and ordered his soldiers to continue their attack.
"Have our archers continue to shoot arrows. As long as our army doesn't break through, we absolutely cannot stop shooting!"
"At the same time, have our giant firebombs aimed carefully before throwing them, ensuring they hit as many enemies as possible!"
"Wang Wu!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
"You and I will descend from the city walls and prepare to charge!"
"Yes!"
Even against an army of three hundred thousand, Lin Tian and his men had charged before.
Let alone the army of three hundred thousand that had already suffered some damage before them.
Such an army, they could charge with ease.
Therefore, upon hearing Lin Tian's order, Wang Wu and the others did not hesitate, descending the city walls with Lin Tian, ready to charge at any moment.
The soldiers of the Arab Empire were unaware of this.
Their army continued to advance towards the city gates under a barrage of arrows and giant firebombs, suffering heavy casualties in the process.
However, the cries of the soldiers grew a little fainter.
Many of them seemed to have a sense of mission.
They would fight Lin Tian's army to the death.
Because of this, they no longer cared about their own lives.
Their only thought now was to keep charging forward, to break through the enemy's formation, and to kill their enemies.
This scene was also witnessed by the Great Emperor of the Arab Empire from afar.
For a moment, the heart of the Great Emperor of the Arab Empire was stirred, and immense courage surged within him.
Then, he said to the generals beside him:
"When our army clashes with the enemy, I, too, will charge with them!"
"At such a critical juncture, only by leading the charge myself can I truly boost our army's morale!"
"Yes!"
If it were before, the generals would surely have objected to such words.
Because the life of their Great Emperor was of utmost importance, and no accident could occur.
But at this moment, they too were infected by the soldiers' courage, and they also longed to charge.
Therefore, when they heard their Great Emperor's words, they agreed without hesitation.
Then, their gazes fell upon their army, waiting for news of victory.
However, what they saw more often was the scene of their army being killed.
As for news of victory, it had not yet arrived.
It wasn't until their cavalry truly approached the city gates that many of them were jolted.
"The cavalry has arrived, our cavalry is here!"
"The time to break through the city gates has come, the time for our battle has arrived!"
"Kill! Everyone, charge in, charge in right now!"
Their cavalry had arrived, and they could break through the firebomb defense.
Therefore, they felt it was time for them to act.
