Chapter 72 Sublimation of the Second Gate

Time passed, day by day, and the entire battlefield became increasingly bleak and lifeless.

With the daily ration dwindling, the death of comrades, and the prolonged siege on the city, the morale and enthusiasm of the soldiers steadily declined.

Although Commander Zhang still led the charge every day, there's a saying that goes, "The initial burst of energy, followed by a decline, and finally exhaustion."

Rumors that the Commander had been severely injured began to spread more and more.
