"As long as the enemy doesn't have any special means and the marshal is here, our Yan Pass will be indestructible. You don't have to worry," Wu Xin argued with Jun Wucheng. Based on his understanding of Lan Wu, Long Yi said with certainty own opinion.
Especially when talking about Lan Wu, his accent was obviously much thicker, and his eyes even became eager. It was obvious that he also respected Lan Wu very much.
"I wonder if you are talking about Marshal Lan Wu?" Jun Wucheng asked again.
"Have you ever heard of the marshal's reputation?" Long Yi raised his eyebrows and was very interested in Jun Wucheng's question.
"Brother Gao Li told us about Marshal Lan's heroic deeds last night. We all respect Marshal Lan very much," Jun Wucheng said directly without any concealment.
"That's it." Long Yi's brows stretched and he smiled cheerfully: "Our marshal is from the royal family. He is a martial arts genius that is rare in a thousand years. He has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. He is proficient in all kinds of literary and military strategies. With him commanding the battle, No matter how many enemy troops come, it will be difficult to cross the thunder pool."
Long Yi's tone was extremely firm. When the three of them were convinced that what he said must be true, the three of them could see that he had great respect for Lan Wu. Based on the fact that Long Yi was a high-level martial arts cultivator, the three of them had a deep feeling of admiration for Lan Wu. More admiration.
"Sir, I wonder when we can join the army?" After a moment, Lu Yunyou came back to his senses and immediately asked Long Yi the question they had been considering for a day.
"I have mentioned this matter to you before. Now that the army is hiring, it would be great if the three of you can contribute to our army. After tonight's battle, you can come to me at any time. General I will prove to the general above that your status is okay and help you join the appropriate camp."
"Sir, to be honest with you, Lu Yun and I are of average strength, so it may be difficult for us to be reused, but Ling Yun is different from us," Jun Wucheng said directly after changing his voice: "Ling Yun's archery skills are outstanding, and he can be used on the battlefield." I will certainly be able to kill a lot of enemy troops, I hope you can give Ling Yun a special recommendation."
"Oh, is there anything else?" Following what Jun Wucheng pointed out, Long Yi looked at Ling Yun in surprise, with a hint of questioning in his eyes.
Catching his gaze, Ling Yun nodded quickly and said, "If you don't believe me, I can show you my archery skills."
"It's not that I don't believe it," Long Yi shook his head and continued: "It's too late tonight, I will make arrangements for you tomorrow."
"We are not in a hurry. As long as you are willing to introduce him, we three brothers will be grateful."
"Well, Long will make a note of this for now. There are still some issues in the army that need to be dealt with today, so Long will take the first step." After nodding to the three of them, Long Yi, who was busy, said goodbye directly to the three of them.
"Sir, please go slowly." Seeing that the other party was in a hurry to leave, Jun Wucheng immediately stood up to see him off. In the blink of an eye, several people sent Long Yi to the door.
After seeing off Long Yi and returning to the house, the three of them all felt much more relaxed than before. They all picked up the dry food that had been put aside and started eating, each one eating with gusto.
The day passed like this. Early the next morning, the general above arranged for everyone to train again. However, the training time today was shorter and intermittent. They practiced until the evening without waiting for Long Yi to come. This made Lu Yunyou and the others feel bad. Feel.
"Ugh..." Just as a few people were discussing the reason why Long Yi didn't come to see them today, a sudden horn sound suddenly came from the direction of the city gate, followed by several more in succession.
A few hundred meters away, the sound of the horn was extremely clear and could be heard clearly by everyone in the camp. The next moment, several people in the room got up and walked directly to the school grounds. There were many guards who went out with them. military.
"The enemy is coming," Jun Wucheng muttered in the darkness, looking in the direction of the tower, as if he was asking a question.
At the same time, Lu Yunyou and Ling Yun remained silent, but they both had the same guess in their minds.
As the horn sound stopped, the hearts of several people could not help but hang up, and none of them could look away from the direction of the tower.
By the time they arrived at the school grounds, the grounds were already full of people. Nearly ten thousand people were looking towards the city gate, all of them staring intently.
At the same time, on the other side of the city tower, the oil in the oil lamps was burning brightly, illuminating the area very brightly.
On the long city wall, countless archers stood densely at two steps, each holding their bows and arrows at the enemy troops who had arrived outside the city. The arrow clusters behind them were filled with arrows.
Next to the archers, there were some people dressed as infantry standing on the side holding a spear in their hands. They were all personnel assigned to protect the archers. As long as the enemy climbed onto the city wall, those people would immediately Kill the enemy troops who board the city.
On the other side of the city wall were piled a large number of stones, rolling wood, and even kerosene. These were all used to prevent the enemy from ascending the city. The Star Army was well prepared to defend the city.
There are countless soldiers in the city waiting to take over the positions of those on the city. Before the enemy officially attacks the city, Lan Wu has made all arrangements.
Outside the city, a hundred meters away from the city protection bridge, there was a dark area full of soldiers from the Feng Kingdom. They were all wearing armor and strong, and they were high-spirited. As long as their coach gave the order, they would rush forward without hesitation. .
Some of the soldiers were holding torches, some were carrying ladders, and some were holding shields. The first few rows were all infantry, and behind those rows of infantry were archers. Although it was inconvenient to shoot from the bottom up. , but with their cover, it will be easier for the vanguard of the Feng Army to board the city.
Before dispatching troops, Feng Jun also made comprehensive preparations. Whether it was a long ladder for crossing the river or a short ladder for climbing the city, all siege equipment was ready.
Those special ladders were very light when carried by many soldiers. Once they were set up on both sides of the river, all the soldiers could easily cross the river through the ladders. The wide baffles on the ladders could ensure that they would not step on nothing.
According to Feng Jun's plan, they will have several generals mixed in with the ordinary infantry. After crossing the river, those generals will cut off the ropes holding the suspension bridge in time and lower the suspension bridge. By then, the two sides will be truly connected, and they will bring The siege beast will be effective.
The thorn-armored beast is fully capable of breaking open the city gate and allowing them to rush in. Once the city gate is broken open, it will not be a problem for them to capture Yanguan with their numerical advantage.
Lowering the suspension bridge is part of the Feng Army's offensive plan. It is also an important strategy discussed by Zhao Tianyi and a group of Feng Army generals. They have regarded the suspension bridge as the key to their victory. Therefore, before the suspension bridge is lowered, no matter how many troops are sacrificed, Zhao Tianyi will They will do whatever it takes.
Tonight, the Feng Army came out in full force. The 150,000-strong army had a huge formation and strong morale. Before leaving, after Zhao Tianyi once again encouraged the morale of the troops, the death of Hai Hai on Thursday had no negative impact on the Feng Army. Instead, it became an incentive. Now The morale of the Feng Army was still as high as before.
In order to successfully capture Yanguan tonight, they have been preparing for two days, and now all the soldiers are waiting for their marshal's attack instructions.
"Marshal Zhao is indeed on time," said Lan Wu, who was dressed in military uniform and upright on the city tower. Although he would not personally participate in the battle anyway, his wise image always influenced everyone.
"What did Marshal Lan say?" Zhao Tianyi stroked his long beard and said calmly: "I wonder if Marshal Lan has anything to say before we start the war?"
"It would be great if Marshal Zhao could withdraw his troops immediately," Lan Wu's reply came from the tower: "There is no enmity between you and me, so why should we meet with swords?"
"Marshal Lan, don't talk any more. Today, I am coming with troops, and I will definitely not return empty-handed."
"Well, Marshal Zhao, just let him come, but I will not let you set foot in the pass tonight." With a wave of his hand, Lan Wu directly asked the waiting herald to pass on his instructions.
"All personnel are ready to fight," the next moment, the herald who was waiting for dispatch understood and immediately conveyed Lan Wu's instructions.
Immediately afterwards, the war drums on the city tower roared continuously, announcing that the war was about to begin. After receiving the instructions, the archers on both sides of the city tower opened their bows and prepared to attack.
"Attack," he didn't expect Lan Wu to act so decisively. Zhao Tianyi frowned and didn't know what Lan Wu was planning, but he couldn't think too much at this moment. Feng Jun needed to go to war immediately. With the sound of a thick sword chant, Zhao Tianyi immediately Raise your sword towards the tower.
"Charge," upon hearing the sound, the generals of the Feng Army pointed forward and shouted, causing countless soldiers to rush to respond. The next moment, the Feng Army, who were ready to go, rushed forward.
"Fire arrows," after the Feng army at the front entered the shooting range, the generals of the Arrow Camp commanding the battle directly ordered the attack. After a series of shouts, the defenders on the city responded to the call, and arrows pierced the air one after another. , flying toward the vanguard of the Feng Army with a whooshing sound.
