Once their provisions were exhausted, they'd lack the stamina to hold out any longer. When the army from the Western Regions finally launched its real assault, all they could do was wait for death.
Xie Yunliu, the newly appointed General of Pingxi, scratched his bald head and bellowed in frustration. This stalemate was driving him mad. They couldn't win a direct confrontation, but the enemy refused to advance and take advantage of the terrain. Even night raids failed to penetrate their lines. The word 'stifling' couldn't even begin to describe this situation.
As he bellowed and grumbled, he failed to notice that his words had reminded several of the married female Knights of something, causing them all to blush.
"Brother, that's enough," Xie Luohe said. Recalling something, she tutted. Then, as quick as lightning, she gave Xie Yunliu a light chop on his bald head, knocking him unconscious.
"Urk~" Xie Yunliu's eyes rolled back in his head, and he slumped over, out cold.
"Wait."
