When some Fengjun in the river struggled to swim to the shore, the Fengjun who rushed behind them didn't know what was going on in front of them. When they realized that the suspension bridge was gone, they couldn't stop and were squeezed by the people chasing after them one by one. Go down.
Plop, plop, the Feng Jun in front of the team fell into the water one after another.
The screams and screams were mixed together. The Star Army in the water simply did not have enough manpower to kill the Feng Army who fell into the river. The Feng Army who fell into the water became even more panicked and kept pulling on the people next to them, trying to climb out. ashore.
It's just that there are too many of them who don't know the nature of water, and each one of them is wearing heavy armor. Some people even hold weapons after falling into the water. As a result, more people sink into the water due to the pulling of each other. It actually saved a lot of energy for the Star Army lurking in the water.
"The suspension bridge has collapsed." There was chaos on the riverside. Feng Jun at the rear seemed to have no idea what was going on ahead and ran forward without hesitation. It wasn't until someone shouted that the suspension bridge collapsed that the people behind them stopped one after another.
The shouts became louder and louder, and soon the Feng soldiers on both sides of the river knew that the suspension bridge had collapsed. Some Feng soldiers in the city who were fighting bloody battles also heard it, and the panicked shouts greatly stimulated them.
"Marshal, the suspension bridge has been destroyed." Just when Feng Jun was panicking about the situation in front of him, a general hurriedly came to the main hall and reported the important situation of the suspension bridge's damage to Lan Wu.
"Continue to implement the second plan," a military order went out, and Lan Wu directly began to predict the next change in the situation.
"Yes," understanding what Lan Wu meant, and after agreeing, the star army general quickly left the hall and conveyed Lan Wu's military order quickly.
A moment later, the sudden horn sounded again on the tower. The long and sharp sound still made many people confused, but for some Star Army, it was a signal for their action.
As soon as the trumpet sounded, people kept poking their heads out of the water in the several hundred meters long river outside the city, and then without saying a word, they slashed at the ladder that Feng Jun had originally set up.
The ladder, which had become fragile due to constant trampling by Feng Jun, broke under their attack. As soon as those Feng Jun who crossed the river on the ladder noticed something strange, many people inevitably fell into the water.
"There are enemy personnel in the water," it wasn't until the top management of the Feng Army realized that something was wrong and loudly reminded their own personnel that the Feng Army personnel who were planning to continue crossing the river through the ladder discovered that there was someone in the water, and it was not theirs.
When more and more Fengjun soldiers began to pay attention to the situation in the water, in the blink of an eye, many ladders had been destroyed by the Star Army lurking in the water. The scene of those ladders being cut off made the Fengjun generals Their faces turned pale, and everyone suddenly became nervous, especially those of the Feng Army who had already crossed the river. Some of them were already thinking about how they would go back after the battle.
At the same time, on the chariot, Zhao Tianyi, who had also discovered the situation, had stood up. His face no longer looked as calm as before, and he no longer felt that they had a chance to win.
"Marshal, the Star Army ambushed in the river first and took advantage of our unpreparedness to destroy a large number of our ladders. How will the soldiers cross the river now?" At this moment, a Feng Army general came to Zhao Tianyi with urgent military information. After the original suspension bridge was damaged, the Feng Army generals and Zhao Tianyi were not too worried, because the number of Feng Army who crossed the river some time ago was enough, and the subsequent crossing of the river via the ladder was enough to ensure the number of people, but now even the ladder has been destroyed by the Star Army Destroyed, the situation is very different.
"Quickly send people to shoot the enemy troops in the river. Don't let the enemy destroy our ladders again, and then put the remaining ladders on the river to ensure that our troops can cross the river normally." Now it seems that the suspension bridge is The damage was definitely not caused by the stampede, everything was caused by the Star Army. After thinking about the reasons why the Star Army blocked them from crossing the river and blocked their retreat, Zhao Tianyi showed some doubts in his eyes.
Not long ago, he could still conclude that they would win, but what happened now always made him feel that it would affect the change of the battle situation. Although he had countermeasures, his mood was no longer as calm as before.
"How many spare ladders are there?" After the general just took the order and left, it took a long time before he asked the general waiting next to him.
"Just now, General Li asked people to take some away, but now there are less than a hundred left. I wonder what the marshal's plan is?" They lowered the suspension bridge earlier than expected, so there are still some ladders left for spare, but the general I don’t know the reason why Zhao Tianyi asked about this matter.
"Marshal, do you want someone to put up all the remaining ladders?" Before Zhao Tianyi could respond, another general came forward to ask for instructions.
"No need for the time being," he shook his head. Since he was not sure how many Star Troops were in the water and where they came from, Zhao Tianyi said with a solemn expression: "Send more archers to shoot down the Star Troopers in the water." , be sure to protect the remaining ladders, and I will make further plans for what happens next.”
After Haosheng took a look at the situation below and above the city, he found that there were enough Feng troops who had seen the river, and now they were all crowded outside the city gate, unable to pass. After considering the reasons for Lan Wu's many tricks, Zhao Tianyi decided to act cautiously for the time being, as if inside the city If the Feng Army cannot break through the Star Army's defense line, then he still has to make preparations for the withdrawal.
"Yes," he agreed, and a general from the Arrow Camp of the Feng Army left directly to take charge of the matters assigned by Zhao Tianyi.
They still had a lot of archers. Not long after, under the command of several Feng Army generals, the archers lined up on the river bank, one by one, shooting wildly at the places where there was movement in the water. Because they couldn't see clearly , some of their own personnel were accidentally killed by them.
But before they arrived, the Star Army in the water had already taken precautions. Except for those who were shot at the beginning, the rest either used the body of the Feng Army in the water to cover up and continued to attack the ladder, or they dived into the water again and kept swimming. To a place outside the battle line, but those men did not completely leave the river, because there were follow-up plans that they needed to execute.
In order to prevent the enemy troops from withdrawing smoothly from the city, Lan Wu had already considered that Feng Army might have a certain number of ladders left, so he specifically asked those people to stay in safe waters and be on standby at any time.
When Feng Jun set about clearing the Star Army from the water, Lan Wu had already received the news that his main plan had been successfully implemented and the time had come to change the situation of the war. When the Star Army generals asked him for instructions on what to do next, Lan Wu directly asked them to implement the next plan.
After the generals received the order, they dispersed in various locations on the city and shouted: "We have destroyed the suspension bridge and the enemy's river-crossing ladder. The enemy's main force can no longer cross the river. All officers and men obey the order, Marshal." Order you to annihilate the enemy with all your strength."
In order to let our own soldiers who were fighting understand the current situation, the Star Army generals shouted louder than the other. Under their repeated shouting, the news of the destruction of the suspension bridge and the enemy's river crossing ladder spread inside and outside the customs.
Those sounds frightened Feng Jun. Some of the Feng Jun who were about to board the city or enter the city looked back. When they saw that the suspension bridge and the ladder on the river had disappeared, they were all frightened and frightened. Under the situation, some Feng troops stopped at their original positions and did not dare to move forward.
The numerical advantage has always been the prerequisite for ensuring the morale of the Feng Army, but now when those people discovered that their companions at the rear could no longer cross the river smoothly, their morale was suddenly severely hit.
"The suspension bridge is gone," in a panic, some Fengjun shouted out spontaneously, as if they had lost their confidence. Those voices exuded fear, which soon affected other people. Since the city could no longer accommodate more Fengjun, There were countless people on both sides of the city gate waiting to board the city. Those Feng troops who had just crossed the river stopped in place, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.
Immediately afterwards, fear spread among the Fengjun like a plague. In the end, more and more Fengjun couldn't help shouting: "The suspension bridge is gone, we can't go back."
The sound spread quickly from the river bank to the ears of the Feng Army generals on the battlefield in the city. When they learned that their retreat had been deliberately destroyed by the Star Army, the previously confident Feng Army generals showed panic.
When they thought that the Feng Army outside the city could not come to support them in time, every Feng Army general realized that their current situation was very dangerous. As the panic in their hearts intensified, the Feng Army's fighting will quickly weakened, and their strength also weakened. Morale, under the fierce counterattack of the Star Army, many people were wondering whether they should continue to fight or retreat.
Especially the Feng Army at the front of the battle line, while fighting the Star Army, looked back and watched. Everyone was afraid that they would not be able to see their companions when they turned back. With inner concerns, their combat power was naturally greatly weakened.
"Quickly kill all the enemy forces in the city with me." On the Star Army side, after understanding the current situation, everyone's confidence increased greatly. As the leader of the army, Lan Xu immediately issued counterattack instructions. As soon as he shouted, the Star Army realized that now was a great opportunity for them to counterattack, so they rushed to attack their opponents one by one, and the morale of the Star Army increased rapidly.
