"Marshal, General Zhang and the others have successfully sneaked into the past. As expected, the suspension bridge will be lowered by them soon. Should we be ready to attack?" Next to the handsome car, a general smiled immediately when he saw that the situation was excellent. Then ask Zhao Tianyi for instructions.
At the same time, other generals heard the sound and looked at Zhao Tianyi
"Well," meeting the gazes of the generals, Zhao Tianyi nodded without hesitation, and then said lightly: "Although our army's casualties exceeded expectations, they are reasonable and will not affect our overall The plan is that as long as General Zhang and the others can successfully complete their mission, our cavalry can follow the siege troops and rush into the city to start a killing spree."
"I'll understand." Seeing Zhao Tianyi directly tell the follow-up plan, the generals responded respectfully.
Now that they have reached the city, the advantage is on their side. It is inevitable to break the city. All the generals are gearing up and waiting for the time to send out all their troops.
The General Zhang they were talking about was one of the Feng Army generals who had been hidden among the ordinary soldiers. There were four of them in total, and they were leading a group of subordinates to climb up the tower.
Since the suspension bridge needed intensive protection, Lan Wu had already arranged many defenders there beforehand. The four Feng Army generals and some Feng Army soldiers had to face various obstructions from the Star Army above, and progress was slow.
However, after a while, the four of them arrived at the location of the ropes that pulled the suspension bridge. There were two of them, both of which protruded from the city wall. Now they worked in pairs and prepared to cut the ropes on both sides at the same time.
In the chaos, after looking at each other, the four people drew their swords and prepared to attack. At the same time, the archers above who were responsible for protecting the suspension bridge noticed the actions of the four people and aimed their arrows at the four people.
Because the distance was very close and the arrows were extremely powerful, even seventh-level martial arts cultivators had no choice but to face such a close attack. Naturally, the four of them could not remain indifferent. Fortunately, those ordinary arrows did not delay their movements.
After blocking an attack from the star army above, the four people directly used their swords to cut the thick iron lock. In order to prevent the timing of cutting the iron lock from being different, causing the suspension bridge to fail to fall to the ground normally, the four people had to Cooperate with your eyesight.
"Marshal, something bad is going on. Someone is cutting the sling below." Seeing that their attacks were useless, an archer immediately ran to Lan Wu to report the situation below.
After receiving the news, Lan Wu, who had retreated to the gate tower, suddenly looked stern. It seemed that he was worried about the situation there, but he soon became relieved again.
It was natural for Fengjun to regard the suspension bridge as a target. The Fengjun cavalry waiting outside the city could prove that Zhao Tianyi wanted those cavalry to be put to use, but one of Lan Wu's earlier strategies happened to be related to the suspension bridge. Before that, he Although heavy troops were deployed to protect the suspension bridge, the destruction of the suspension bridge was actually what he wanted to see.
However, in order to conceal his purpose, he still could not let Feng Jun achieve his wish easily, so after a brief consideration, Lan Wu ordered the two Arrow Camp generals beside him: "Hurry and help them protect the suspension bridge."
"Yes," the two Arrow Camp generals took the order and immediately turned and left. After replacing the original archers, the two attacked the Feng Army general below who was trying to cut off the iron lock from the position with the best view.
In the past, Lan Wu specially arranged for the archers to guard the suspension bridge. They were all the best in the archery camp. They were outstanding in terms of personal strength and archery skills, but they could not stop the people below. Now it would be better to switch to the generals above. .
After letting the two Arrow Camp generals pass, Lan Wu returned to the tower hall and analyzed the current situation with the other generals.
At the same time, a hundred meters behind the city gate, Lan Xu and a group of Star Army soldiers were waiting. Before the two sides started fighting, Lan Xu had been ordered to lead a group of soldiers to surround the back of the city gate. At this moment, Lan Xu was waiting Behind the man were all Star Army cavalry, and on both sides of the cavalry were infantry.
Once the Feng Army breaks open the city gate, an even more intense fight will be waiting for both sides. As for the number of defenders in the city, Zhao Tianyi and others' inference is correct. Regardless of the wounded soldiers, there are actually only 80,000 in the city. The troops are available. If the two armies fight head-on, the numerical disadvantage of the Star Army will be directly highlighted, so Lan Wu must not let the Feng Army easily break through the city gate.
For Lan Wu and others, they had always been skeptical when they heard Zhao Tianyi talking about raising 200,000 troops. In their opinion, even if Feng Kingdom had already prepared to send troops to Xing Kingdom, this made them The possibility of people being convinced is still extremely small. Of course, they cannot underestimate the strength of the Feng Army.
Since Feng Jun dares to attack the city, it proves that Feng Jun must have more troops than them. Of course, they cannot find out the specific number yet.
A lot of time has passed since the start of the war. Because Lan Wu kept mobilizing troops to rush to the city to support them and did not know much about the damage on both sides, Lan Xu and others were already impatient to wait. However, based on their responsibilities , they must stay in the city and wait.
In addition, Lan Xu also knew that some of Lan Wu's important strategies were related to finding gaps in the army. That was something that the other frontier generals did not know. Lan Xu knew that he had to ensure that Lan Wu's plan went smoothly so that it could go smoothly. Find a gap, so no matter how fierce the fight between the two sides in the city is, he must obey all arrangements of Lan Wu.
The sound of fighting in the city became more and more intensive, accompanied by screams one after another, which stimulated everyone's minds at all times. Lu Yunyou and others who had been paying attention to the situation at the Chengguan also became more and more anxious. Now there are no more drums and no horns at the Chengguan. The only sound they could hear was the sound of fighting.
Judging from the sound, the battle at the city gate was raging, but they didn't know what the specific situation was. The unknown waiting caused many negative emotions. The three of them even thought about whether they should quietly escape from here while the Star Army was busy defending the city.
"How about we take advantage of the chaos and leave here?" After waiting for a while, feeling anxious and overly nervous, Jun Wucheng finally expressed his intention to leave.
"Where to go?" Ling Yun's voice sounded behind as if he had also thought about this question.
"If we are found out now, we will be regarded as deserters. Have you forgotten the general's military order above?" However, Lu Yunyou was not optimistic about the two people's ideas, not to mention the Gao Li brothers were still beside them.
"Now the people in the camp are either gathered here or at the city gate. If we are careful, it shouldn't be difficult to leave here." In fact, deep down in his heart, he had the same concerns as Lu Yunyou, but Jun Wucheng was thinking about it now To run away, no longer take that worry to heart.
"It's okay if everything goes well, but if someone discovers it, then the three of us will have no reason to explain. Yunyou is right, we should stay." Unlike Jun Wucheng, Lu Yunyou denied the two of them. After thinking about it, Ling Yun, who was originally emotional, slowly calmed down, but in the end he still agreed with Lu Yunyou's opinion.
"Yes, haven't you decided to join the army? Why are you leaving?" At this moment, Gao Li, who heard the voice, turned his head: "If someone discovers it, even the deputy general will not be able to intercede for you. .”
"Then stay," he sat down on the ground. After Gao Li persuaded him in the same way, Jun Wucheng immediately showed an attitude of breaking the jar.
"Wait slowly. If the Star Army cannot defend the city gate, there will definitely be chaos inside the city gate. We can go over there to see the situation. When we are sure that the Star Army is defeated, we can just follow some Star Army to escape. "After confirming that running away now was not a wise move, Lu Yunyou had no choice but to make another plan.
"Yunyou is right. Let's wait and see. If the Star Army wins in the end, wouldn't we be asking for trouble if we escape but are caught?" After calming down, Ling Yun agreed more and more with Lu Yunyou's view.
Not long after, after seriously considering Lu Yunyou's views, Jun Wucheng suddenly realized that he had been too impulsive just now. Therefore, he admired Lu Yunyou for being able to calm down before him. After repeated attempts, his restless heart finally recovered. calm.
But having said that, the unknown waiting is always a kind of torture for the three of them. If Lu Yunyou and Ling Yun weren't there, Jun Wucheng might have left quietly long ago due to his temperament.
In fact, just like the three of them, other people on the school grounds and the people waiting in the city are a little uneasy. For the people in the city, whether the Star Army can win is very important. If Yanguan is breached by the enemy tonight, their fate will be certain. It's going to be miserable, so for them Star Army has to win.
Regardless of the external situation, at the city tower, several Feng Army generals were about to face the attack of two Arrow Camp generals. The soldiers above them who originally protected them had been cleared away by the previous Star Army. Now the bodies of the four of them Totally exposed.
