As the furious charge for the gate came to an end, the soldiers stood in a circle and stared at those two proud, arrogant and cold figures as they sat upon their black and grey horse. One colored in black and purple and another in white and gold. Both carried a spear that was desolate and vied for blood!! Finally, these two future Kings meet upon the battlefield!!!On this b.l.o.o.d.y battlefield, these two young generals finally met face to face and were ready to slay each other.
They both circled each other waiting for a flaw to appear in their stance but before that could happen Alexander shouted out.
Alexander: TO THINK THE COWARDLY GENERAL WHO CAUSED RAMPAGE TO MY ARMY THINKS HE"S MY RIVAL!? COME!! I SHALL SHOW YOU THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU AND ME!!!
When Alexander spoke, Tianlong expected a foreign language to appear but what appeared was fluent Chinese.
Tianlong: Hmph We shall see whether I"m qualified or not you, arrogant b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!! And with those clash of words, alexander and Tianlong Sprung forward and these two desolate spears clashed.
Clang!! Clang!!
Ding!!! Ding!!! Ding!!!
Shang!!! Shing!!!!!
Boom!!!!!
In just a few moments the two already traded 20 blows and were continuing without stopping.
Soon hours had pasted and without stop, this deadly siege continued to hold out till the enemy advisor personally had to drag his prince along with the army to retreat.
DING!!!
DING!!!
SHANG!!! KLANG!!!
BOOM!!!!
Tianlong: HAHAHA, NOT BAD!!! COME I WANNA SEE IF YOU CAN MAKE IT OUT WITH YOUR ARMY SAFE!!!! ALL FORCES CONVERGE ON THE RETREATING ENEMY!!!
Soldiers: KILL!!!!!

Alexander: YOU DARE!? I WANT TO SEE HOW YOU STOP THIS PRINCE AND HIS GUARD FROM LEAVING!!! ROYAL GUARD! BREAKOUT!!!!!!
Royal Guard: CHARGE!!!!!!!
BREAKOUT!!!
MAKE A PATH FOR THE PRINCE!!!!
KILLL!!!!
Soon Tianlong"s force of 7thousand sallied out and fought a few meters outside the fort as the clashed with the enemy rearguard of 8thousand.
Tianlong who was at the back of the army viewed the battlefield as he gave out orders.
Alexander: REARGUARD SO LONG AS WE HOLD THE ENEMY OFF AS OUR MAIN FORCE RETREATS ALL OF YOU SHALL RECEIVE GOLD AND WOMEN ALONG WITH YOUR OWN LAND SO LONG AS WE HOLD!!!
Enemy soldier: HAHAHA BROTHERS DEFEND!!! WE WILL HAVE COUNTLESS BEAUTIES SERVING US IF WE SURVIVE!!!
It seemed like Alexanders speech aroused his soldier"s greed which made them go all out which resulted in a stalemate for 3 hours which costed Alexander dearly for the mistaking Tianlong"s army to have no backbone and was proved wrong.
Soon night fell and with it, the enemy rearguard retreated under the hara.s.sment of Tianlong with some cavalry as the rest of Tianlong"s army manned the fort.

Tianlong and his cavalry returned after pursuing for an hour and joined the rest of the army on the walls.
In a room… 4 figures sat looking towards the center chair where Tianlong stood sitting.
Tianlong: Captain Hu what are the left walls casualties?
Captain Hu: General! Of the 1000 standing guard, 150 men were lost during the relentless a.s.sault from the enemy right!!
Without having to be told the other captains began to announce the casualties.
Captain Ji: General 300 of 1500 guarding the right died! We were besieged by a general bearing the symbol Kiel!
Captain Fong: General from the gatehouse 500 out of the 3000 guarding, died from the fierce fight between you and the enemy Commander!!
Tianlong nodded for the low losses which he expected to be more and finally spoke after a few seconds.
Tianlong: Of the remaining reserves reinforce the left and right by 1000 while sending 600 to the middle! Have the rest of the reserves sleep during the night!
Soon each captain was getting ready to walk out but before they could the door was forcefully opened which startled the captains and Tianlong.
Captain Hu was the first to respond by pointing out his sword towards the door and shouted out. STOP! WHO GOES THERE!!
The rest of the captains followed suit and pointed towards the door which a messenger walked out of.
The messenger froze as he saw countless weapons being pointed towards him and was frightened and yelled out quickly.
Messenger: General Lu I have come from Lord Lu"s army and have come bearing news!!! The appointed General Ling along with the lord himself march towards here with an army of 25thousand!!! The lord askes general Lu to hold till tomorrow night!!
Tianlong who heard the news started laughing and shouted.
Tianlong: HAHAHAHAHA!!! THE HEAVENS BLESS ME!! CAPTAIN HU RALLY THE TROOPS!!! WE SHALL GIVE THEM HOPE FOR TOMORROW!!
Captain Hu who quickly understood what his commander meant also started cheering and laughing alongside Tianlong as their days of hardship was soon to be over.
The next morning…. The sun was starting to rise and with it 7thousand lining up as they stood staring, at their mighty and brave commander which they came to revere and respect…
Tianlong scanned through his men and nodded before slowly walking upwards to overlook the entire army.
Tianlong: Brothers…. Since the day we came to be… we"ve faced countless tribulations through this one battle and have stood strong! Though we have lost many brothers in this we shall send them company in death even if we die!! SO, BROTHERS!!! FOLLOW THIS CRAZY GENERAL OF YOURS ONE LAST TIME AS WE DEFEND THIS Pa.s.sAGE TILL THE DEATH!!!!

SO BROTHERS… MY LIFE AND DEATH BROTHERS IF WE LIVE TO SEE OUR LORD REMEMBER WE SHALL BE HEROES WHO DEFENDED OUR LAND AND HOME!!!! When Tianlong finished his speech the soldiers who lost hope even though they still fought something inside of them awakened and gave all the soldiers present a newfound strength which made them shout out. This shout resounded across the valley and was heard by the far Lu Bu and Ling Fan and the Enemy army which shocked them both.
URRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This shout echoed across the entire plain and valley for a good minute before it ended.
