The Zhao soldiers in Dai City would have had a choice if the city gates hadn't been breached, if Lin Tian's army hadn't appeared before their eyes.
But now, their city gates were already broken by Lin Tian, and they couldn't be closed in a short time.
Lin Tian's army had already charged through.
Under such circumstances, they had no choice.
Facing the fierce Qin army, they could only fight. Only by defeating Lin Tian of Qin could they guarantee victory in this war.
Therefore, the commander of Dai City directly shouted at this moment:
"Kill! With me, kill Lin Tian!!"
At this time, the commander of Dai City had no one else in his eyes, only Lin Tian.
His words naturally served as a beacon for Dai City's elite. Many heard him and charged directly towards Lin Tian.
Even many ordinary soldiers did not retreat but squeezed towards Lin Tian.
If it were anyone else, they would have retreated by now and joined the main army.
But at this moment, Lin Tian did not retreat an inch.
"Good! Come on!!"
"After fighting for so long, I also want to know if Zhao's swords are sharper than Han's!"
Lin Tian hadn't made a move in a long time, nor had he properly fought against Zhao soldiers. He was very much looking forward to this.
This anticipation made the eyes of the Dai City commander even fiercer.
He wanted to let Lin Tian know that Zhao soldiers were completely different from Han soldiers.
Zhao soldiers were more ferocious, and Zhao soldiers were more willing to fight desperately.
Even if they died, they would bite off a piece of Lin Tian.
Thus, countless berserkers charged towards Lin Tian.
They were not only stronger but also had fiercer eyes.
One could tell at a glance that they were a group of people who enjoyed fighting and quarreling.
Such people on the battlefield would only make the enemy feel incredibly troublesome because they were fierce, ruthless, and willing to fight to the death.
However, when they reached Lin Tian, Lin Tian seemed to not see this ferocity.
With a raise of his hand, he drew his sword and directly cut the throat of the Zhao soldier charging at the forefront.
Then, without even looking at him, Lin Tian drew his sword again, slitting the throats of several more people.
These Zhao elites were strong, but only relative to ordinary soldiers.
To Lin Tian, their strength was no different from that of Han soldiers.
It was all one sword strike, no need for a second.
In just over ten breaths, hundreds of Zhao elites had already died by Lin Tian's hand.
Such a massacre truly stunned many people.
"Hiss! His combat power is actually this strong!!"
"It seems difficult for our elites to get close to him, so... can we be his opponent?"
"Let's wait and see how the general plans to deal with Qin's Lin Tian!"
At this time, the commander of Dai City also felt a chill down his spine. He had originally thought that mobilizing the elite of their army should be enough to capture Lin Tian.
But who would have thought that Lin Tian would cut down more than half of his elites as if he were chopping vegetables?
This left the commander of Dai City at a loss for what to do!
They must know that Dai City's regular army was only ten thousand strong, and the thousand-plus elites who had been dispatched were the true elites of Dai City's army.
As for the rest, they were ordinary soldiers and civilians conscripted to defend the city.
If even the true elites were no match for Lin Tian, then the ordinary soldiers and civilians would certainly be even less a match for him.
They couldn't possibly expect Lin Tian to get tired and then defeat him with a human wave tactic, could they?
Lin Tian's army had already reached their city gates. In terms of numbers, their side had more.
In the end, the commander of Dai City decided to abandon his human wave tactic and change his strategy: kill Lin Tian.
"Where are the divine archers? Where are our divine archers?"
"General, do you intend to shoot Lin Tian with arrows?"
"Our elites are clearly no match for Lin Tian, so we can only assassinate him with hidden arrows!"
"But Lin Tian is surrounded by our Zhao soldiers! What if there are friendly casualties...?"
"Our city gates have been broken by Lin Tian. If we don't stop him now, Dai City will be completely lost, so at necessary times, we need to make some sacrifices!"
"Go, find our one hundred best archers!"
The commander of Dai City naturally knew that this might lead to friendly casualties among their soldiers, but the Qin soldiers had already reached the city gates and were preparing to push into Dai City.
Under such circumstances, if he didn't make a decision, the loss would not just be a few soldiers.
It would be their entire Dai City, all their soldiers.
Finally, the hundred best archers were found, and their mission was very clear: attack Lin Tian, shoot and kill Lin Tian.
Although this order put great pressure on these archers, they still carried it out with unwavering determination.
Instantly, a large number of arrows flew towards Lin Tian.
These archers' arrows had a certain accuracy, most of them heading straight for Lin Tian, with only a few straying and hitting others. The rest of the arrows landed around Lin Tian.
Lin Tian looked up and immediately saw dozens of arrows flying towards him.
The cold glint on the arrowheads told Lin Tian that these were death-dealing arrows.
However, Lin Tian did not panic. He casually swung a few swords, blocking all the arrows.
Those casual swings of his sword, in the eyes of the crowd, were like swatting away mosquitoes.
Zhao's arrows were as insignificant as mosquitoes.
However, these insignificant mosquitoes, when they landed on Zhao soldiers, injured quite a few of them.
The Zhao soldiers had never seen such a scene before; their eyes were filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible??"
"Loose arrows! Quick, loose more arrows! Shoot him!!"
"Don't stop, keep shooting, don't let him have a chance to breathe!"
Their arrows had not harmed Lin Tian, which made them even more panicked.
They could only continue to loose arrows, allowing the archers to shoot Lin Tian, to alleviate their panic.
However, at this moment, Lin Tian's army had already appeared behind him.
"Since my men have arrived, I won't play with you anymore!"
"All soldiers, listen to my command, take Dai City! We will make camp and cook in Dai City today!!"
"Yes!!"
The city gates were wide open, and they had already broken into Dai City. At this moment, the morale of Lin Tian's army reached its peak.
Their shouts made the walls of Dai City tremble.
From sheer morale alone, the Zhao army in Dai City had already lost.
Not to mention that Lin Tian had fifty thousand troops, and they were advancing in a tight formation called the "Little Mandarin Duck Array."
All these factors combined had already sealed Dai City's fate.
