But the arrows of the Mongols did not weaken in the slightest. The Mongols had been trained in archery since they were children, and their accuracy was impeccable. Nangong Ye had only managed to climb halfway before he had to halt, using his sword to deflect the brutal rain of arrows.
Just as Nangong Ye was at a stalemate in mid-air, another figure flew over - it was Lu Jianxi.
"Go up!" Lu Jianxi defended Nangong Ye while urging him to keep climbing. Nangong Ye understood and the two of them coordinated seamlessly. In no time, they reached the city wall and secured a breach for their own forces.
This breach was critical for the battle. After Nangong Ye and Lu Jianxi made it to the top, a torrent of soldiers followed them.
The battle became more severe...
...
Back in the palace, the report of their victory in capturing Tiandu City from the north led to nationwide celebrations. Everyone praised Nangong Ye's courage and wisdom, hailing him as the savior of Dajin.
