Five days.
Lin Ye sat down holding on to the city wall, breathing heavily. Even he was already so tired. You can imagine how tired Wu Lingwei's soldiers were.
The difference is that Lin Ye wants to run on the city wall and kill the masters of Lou Fan's army.
Thirteenth senior brother Xu Haoran sat down next to Lin Ye, sweat dripping from his face.
"Reinforcements probably won't come."
Before Xu Haoran sat down, he looked at the densely packed enemy troops in the valley.
The troops on the outer lines of Fanglutai suffered extremely heavy losses, and the number of casualties every day was worrying.
The city wall extending from Stone City was almost collapsed, and the Loufan people were attacking like crazy.
The Loufan people couldn't attack, so they wanted to destroy the city wall.
If it weren't for the special terrain here, with Lin Ye's defense on the side of the canyon, how could they have stopped the 100,000 Lou Fan army that had arrived.
The deer herding platform is on the right side of the canyon. The rock wall on the left looks like a protruding kitchen knife, which can almost cut off the canyon.
If you want to pass through the canyon, you must walk from the deer herding platform, enter through the city gate on one side of the deer herding platform, and exit from the other side.
Now the Loufan people not only want to tear down the city wall, they even want to knock off the protruding cliff on the left side. Of course, they don't dare. If they can really smash it, they will completely block the canyon.
But one can imagine how anxious they were at this time.
This army will join the other Lou Fan army in Xiantang City to form an encirclement of Xiantang.
This is the most important part of the plan, to besiege Xiantang and force King Dongbo to issue an order to bring back the northern border troops.
But now, 100,000 Loufan Huxiao troops are blocked here. If they choose to take a detour at this time, it may take several months to go around this mountain range.
If they cannot reach Xiantang City within the estimated time, it will be difficult to form an encirclement with the strength of Lou Fan's army on the other side.
And the longer it takes, the greater the chance that Dong Bo will mobilize his troops to counterattack.
If it is delayed for a month and the Dongbo Northern Frontier Army cannot be forced to return to defense, then the nearly 300,000 Loufan Huxiao Army who penetrated deep into the hinterland of Dongbo may become a turtle in the urn.
Dongbo, Dayu, and reinforcements from the two countries will rush outside Xiantang City in a steady stream.
Under the encirclement, 300,000 elite troops were eaten up. No matter how powerful Lou Fan was, his vitality would still be severely damaged.
Moreover, after this battle, if they fail, the Loufan people will never have the same opportunity again.
Because Dayu will soon use troops against Guzhu to destroy this disobedient vassal country.
Lin Ye was silent for a long time after hearing what the Thirteenth Senior Brother said.
It’s not that there are no reinforcements, it’s that we can’t get through.
The 30,000 frontier troops led by Yuan Qingze and Hong Wuding should have arrived based on time, but now at least 100,000 Lou Fan troops are blocked in the canyon, and the 30,000 frontier troops cannot support them at all.
Lin Ye looked back and saw that inside the city wall, the men of Wu Lingwei were sitting there panting.
The day after they occupied the deer-herding platform, Lou Fan's army arrived faster than expected.
Then came the day and night onslaught. The Loufan people had a huge advantage in strength, so they didn't need to stop and rest at all.
They rotate the offense and have plenty of people to use.
But Lin Ye and the others only had 3,000 people here. During the past few days, they had lost between 600 and 700.
If the location of this stone city wasn't so special and it was really easy to defend and difficult to attack, how could it be possible to lose only these people.
Lin Ye stretched out his hand: "Map."
The Guardsmen spread out the map in front of Lin Ye in full force.
In fact, this map had been in Lin Ye's mind for a long time. He just suddenly thought of something and wanted to check the map.
"We are here."
Lin Ye pointed his finger at Donglin Canyon.
This mountain range is very long from east to west, and the canyon is slightly to the left, dividing the mountain range into two.
If the Loufan people gave up attacking the canyon and took a detour to the right, they would have to walk for at least two and a half months, or even three months.
It would be faster if we took a detour to the left, and it would take a month and a half to reach Xiantang City.
"Yuan Qing is the general who leads the troops."
Lin Ye pointed to the left side of the mountain range.
"He will not use all his forces to support our side."
After Lin Ye said these words, the faces of the people around him instantly dimmed.
Lin Ye said: "If the Loufan people cannot attack for a long time, they can only consider taking a detour to the left to go to Xiantang."
He nodded again with his finger on the map: "Yuan Qing will divide the 30,000 border troops into two parts, and leave one part here to contain the Loufan people. The canyon is not wide in the first place, and Loufan's 100,000-strong army cannot expand. Kai, Yuan Qing divided half of his troops here, but he actually didn't dare to take the initiative to fight, because Lou Fan's main force is still outside the valley entrance."
Feng Xiu squatted down: "What the general means is that in order to prevent the Loufan people from taking a detour to the left, Yuan Qing will put more than half of his troops behind him. The walls of Hanhai City are tall and strong and can stop the enemy."
Thirteenth Senior Brother Xu Haoran opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He wanted to say that this didn't actually mean that Yuan Qingze's 30,000 border troops had almost given up on Lin Ye and the others.
If he said these words, it would probably make many people collapse emotionally.
"We don't need reinforcements."
Lin Ye said: "If the Loufan people don't enter the deer herding platform, they won't be able to survive. The canyon here is extremely narrow. You have all seen it. If they squeeze in one by one, when will they be able to squeeze in a hundred thousand troops?" To the north?"
Lin Ye raised his head and looked across.
The cliff on the left stretches out like a standing kitchen knife, almost cutting off the canyon.
"Find a way to get up there."
Lin Ye pointed to the cliff opposite.
Everyone looked at his finger and shook their heads after a moment.
From the deer-herding platform to the opposite cliff, there is at least twenty feet. Even a strong man at the peak of Wuyue Realm cannot jump over this distance.
As for whether a peerless master in the Immortal Realm can do it, who knows.
"I'll figure it out how to get through."
Lin Ye stood up and said: "Now I need a group of people to take the risk of climbing to the top of the cliff opposite. It would have been very dangerous in the past, with a narrow escape from death, but once you go up there, you will be safe. The Loufan people's arrows can't hit that side."
"General."
The twelfth senior brother Yan Geng said: "If there is a zip line, I am not afraid of climbing over it, but this distance is so wide horizontally, and it is even impossible to throw it upward. Besides, are there any trees nearby? The tree is further back. I can see that it should be about ten feet tall, even if I throw the zipline up, it’s not fixed, I still can’t climb over it.”
Lin Ye said: "I just need someone to dare."
He said: "I can't go over, you can only go up."
"You have all seen that in the past two days, the Loufan people have mobilized the strong men in their army to attack during the day and at night. Among them are masters from the Wuyue Realm. If I am not here, I cannot defend it."
He pointed to the top of the cliff: "But the masters of the Wuyue Realm can't go there. There, only a few dozen people are required to keep moving rocks to knock them down. Even if they can't kill many Loufan people, they can still destroy the narrow road. Seal him.”
Yan Geng said loudly: "As long as I can go up, I will be the first to go up."
Xu Haoran said: "I'll go up too!"
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
Lin Ye looked back at Zinai: "Help me."
Zinai nodded vigorously.
When the senior brothers in the martial arts hall looked at Zinai, they finally realized what method Lin Ye was talking about.
Zina asked: "What should I throw?"
Lin Ye: "You don't have to throw anything, I need you to come up."
Zina was startled.
Lin Ye patted her head gently: "Don't argue. You are the lightest person, and you are also the strongest. Whether the brothers here can guard the deer herding platform is up to you."
Zina wanted to say something, but finally endured it and nodded vigorously again.
Lin Ye asked someone to find a rope and tie it around Zinai's waist.
He said in a very soft voice: "Believe me, brother."
Zina nodded: "I believe it."
Lin Ye asked someone to smooth the rope, and then grabbed the rope around Zinai's waist.
"After you get there, find a place to tie the rope."
He took a deep breath.
In an instant, all the inner energy he had stored during this period was poured into his right arm.
Following Lin Ye's slight scolding, he threw Zinai towards the top of the mountain opposite.
Zinai was like a shooting star, flying straight across the canyon from the deer herding platform.
More than twenty feet tall, when Lin Ye exerted his strength, the muscles of his right arm bulged out, stretching up his sleeves.
With just a moment of trance, Zinai really flew to the opposite side.
After she landed, she ran to the edge of the cliff and waved to Lin Ye, indicating that she was fine.
Then he ran out again, found a big tree and tied the rope, then ran back and signaled that it was OK.
"You guys, please be careful here."
The twelfth senior brother Yan Geng jumped to grab the rope and used his hands alternately to climb to the other side.
However, they were discovered by the Loufan people only halfway up the climb, and they let out bursts of shouts.
Soon archers gathered and fired arrows into the sky.
The twelfth senior brother had good martial arts skills and strong internal energy, so he climbed over quickly.
When Brother Thirteen passed by, there was no danger. An arrow missed him and flew past him.
The following men climbed to the opposite side one after another.
Lin Ye led the archers to suppress the Loufan people below, but they could not completely stop them.
Someone was hit by an arrow and couldn't hold on anymore. He fell from a high altitude and fell into the crowd of Loufan. He was soon hacked to death or even chopped into pieces by the crazy enemies.
Some people pass by and some are left behind.
It lasted for almost half an hour, and dozens of people climbed to the other side, but at this time, an arrow hit the rope.
Whether it was accurate enough or a coincidence, the rope was cut in half, and the people above immediately widened their eyes.
They speeded up and moved to the opposite side. Three or five more people passed by, but the rope couldn't hold up and broke.
The few people who were still on the rope shouted and fell down. Soon, the shouts disappeared among Lou Fanren's curses.
Lin Ye looked across the way, and Zinai just stood there looking at him.
Lin Ye waved towards Zinai, motioning her to stay away from the cliff.
There was a cliff on the opposite side, and Lou Fan couldn't get up. He sent Zina to the opposite side, and he felt more at ease.
Fanglutai might be breached at any time. In the ditch dug on the high slope outside the city, Wu Lingwei had lost more than half of its troops. It was estimated that in two days, there would be no more troops to send outside.
He waved to Zina again, asking Zina to get to a safe place as soon as possible.
Xiaohan seemed to understand what Lin Ye meant, and shouted at Zinai one after another, as if he was also persuading her to move back.
There are people on both sides, echoing the defense, which is indeed a good idea.
But Lin Ye came up with this method out of selfish motives. He wanted Zina to go to a safe place.
"Brother, it's okay!"
Lin Ye shouted to Zinai: "It's okay over there."
Xiaohan: "Ouch~"
