Maybe Zhang Yuangang didn't expect that they had made full preparations, but there would still be omissions. Although they guarded the city gate for much longer than expected, the supplies they used to deal with the Star Army were insufficient. Now many areas There has been a shortage of supplies, and some Feng troops have been tired after fighting for a long time.
Even though the generals have been replenishing their troops in areas lacking defensive supplies to resist the Star Army that could climb onto the city at any time, by this time, the Star Army generals had extended the battle line to 1,200 meters away, and were still Keep extending to both sides.
To guard against such a long front, the Feng Army became more and more hasty in replenishing personnel and supplies. Although half of the Star Army's ladders had been destroyed by this time, more and more people climbed up the city. Under the cover of the archers, The Star Army climbed up the city wall one after another. At first, those who climbed the city had little chance to fight. Almost as soon as they climbed up, they were beaten down by the Feng Army. However, as the number of Star Army personnel continued to increase, the Feng Army was eventually unable to stop them.
Especially at the position where some star army generals were ascending the city, those generals jumped up when they were about to ascend the city, and then fired out a burst of energy, and all the Feng troops originally surrounding the city wall were repulsed.
As soon as the move was issued, the Star Army generals flew over the city and kept killing the surrounding Feng Army. Every once in a while on the city, there was a seventh-level martial arts cultivator commanding the soldiers to fight. Those Feng Army generals were exactly The people who are responsible for dealing with the Star Army generals will immediately rush over to contain the Star Army generals when they find out that the Star Army generals are fighting. However, when the two sides fight, since most of the people on the city are soldiers from the Feng Kingdom, the Star Army generals can do nothing. He used his energy to attack without any scruples, but General Feng couldn't.
Once they freed up their hands and feet to fight against seventh-level martial arts cultivators, it was the ordinary soldiers who suffered in the end. The chaos caused by those Star Army generals caused more and more defensive weaknesses in the city, so that the Star Army who climbed up the city wall suddenly increase.
Originally, the Feng Army's troops deployed on the city had an absolute advantage, but after the Star Army personnel rushed up regardless of the danger, the situation changed greatly. After a while, the three- to four-meter-wide city wall directly became a battlefield.
As those Star Army generals took the lead in changing their original siege methods, in less than a quarter of an hour, the situation between the two sides was reversed. At the beginning of the fierce battle, more and more Phoenix troops could no longer use stones and rolling logs to stop other Star troops. Climb the city, then directly pick up weapons and join the battle on the city.
There are many fifth-level martial arts cultivators in the Feng Army. They may not be of much use against seventh-level martial arts cultivators, but they have the ability to resist and surround sixth-level martial arts cultivators.
Since there were not many Star Army commanders who climbed up the city, they were surrounded by enemies on all sides, and they could not eliminate a large number of enemies in a short time. The situation of some senior Star Army officers became more and more dangerous. Before long, many of them were under restraint. The captain was killed by the combined efforts of Feng Jun.
It was also difficult for those Star Army generals to exert their strength after being surrounded by enemy commanders. Their role continued to decrease. Fortunately, the opportunities they created at first were enough for Star Army to come up.
When the number of star troops on the city increased to equal that of the Feng army, the more than one thousand meter long city wall suddenly turned into a real battlefield. At this point, the battle situation finally changed dramatically, and the situation became irreversible from now on.
As time passed, the battle situation was the same as when the Feng Army attacked Yanguan, except this time the offensive and defensive sides changed positions.
After following the others and successfully ascending the city wall through the ladder, Lu Yunyou vigorously brandished his weapon to attack the nearby Feng Jun. After he jumped onto the city wall, not only did the remaining fear in his heart disappear instantly, but he also felt eager for revenge. It felt like, amid the sounds of the fierce fighting, murderous intent was pouring out of his heart.
While trying to restrain the heightened feeling, Lu Yunyou found the whereabouts of the Gao Li brothers, and then reminded himself not to kill anyone while thinking about protecting the two brothers' safety as much as possible.
At the same time, after being blocked from climbing the city and almost losing their lives, after boarding the city, Brother Gao Li's mood was somewhat similar to that of Lu Yunyou. There was no trace of fear. On the contrary, they wanted to kill those Feng soldiers to vent their anger even more than Lu Yunyou.
The eagerness for revenge dominated their behavior. After joining the battle, the two brothers became more brave than the other, but there were still more people in the Feng Army around them, and the momentum of the Feng Army was not bad at all, so that the two brothers' The performance became more and more brave, and Feng Jun's resistance became stronger.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had been in danger many times. Thanks to Lu Yunyou's quick reaction, he could always save the two of them in time, otherwise their lives would have been in danger.
The two brothers who originally wanted to go on a killing spree kept fighting forward with impulsiveness. However, when they discovered that Feng Jun was not as easy to kill as they thought, while they were thankful that they were saved by Lu Yunyou, the two of them also calmed down. Come down and no longer rush forward regardless of danger like before.
Having said that, the Star Army who had just climbed up the city were as anxious as the Gaoli brothers. They had been blocked many times before when they climbed the city, and they almost lost their lives. Now that they had finally climbed up, they were naturally holding back a surge of anger in their hearts. In order to improve their mood, If they feel more comfortable, those Fengjun will naturally become the target for them to vent.
Although the current situation in the city cannot be said to be that the Star Army has the upper hand, the Star Army's advantage is expanding little by little. It won't be long before the Star Army, who shares the same hatred with the enemy, will be able to suppress the Feng Army's momentum.
However, Zhang Yuangang had no targeted countermeasures to suppress the morale growth of the Star Army, so he could only let people continue to fill the vacancies in the city.
It is worth mentioning that the long city wall originally brought great advantages to the Feng Army, but now that advantage is gradually turning into a disadvantage. Due to the limited width of the city wall, even if there are countless Feng Army under the city, they can easily climb the city, but that advantage is gradually turning into a disadvantage. The narrow corridor still limits the Feng Army's support speed. Relatively speaking, the Star Army has more and more troops on the city.
After the war situation changed significantly, in the main hall, Zhang Yuangang, who had previously been sure of victory, finally felt a little different. Not long ago, he told Tang Jinjian that the Star Army would definitely retreat. Unexpectedly, the commander of the Star Army actually ignored the casualties and was so small. With his skill, a large number of star troops were able to attack the city. The current situation was unexpected to him. Even though the facts were before his eyes, he still couldn't figure out how the star army got on the city.
"How many enemy troops are there in the city now?" In a hurry, when Tang Jinjian looked towards him, Zhang Yuangang hurriedly asked the general who had sent the message.
"There are thousands of people, and the number is still increasing," the general who replied did not dare to neglect, and immediately explained the situation outside.
"How much reserve strength does our army have?" Zhang Yuangang asked again with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"There are thirty thousand more."
"Support the city on the battlefield at all costs, and the Star Army must not be allowed to occupy the city wall no matter what," a military order went out. Zhang Yuangang was already thinking about whether to let the people in the city help.
"Marshal, the width of the corridors in the city is limited, and it is difficult for our army to reach various areas for support." The situation is now much worse than before. The flow of personnel in many places is blocked, and it is difficult to even go for reinforcements. In the eyes of the general, Zhang Yuangang's order is difficult implement,
"How is the enemy's morale currently?" Zhang Yuangang frowned, already deeply worried about the current situation.
"It's getting stronger and stronger, and it's even a bit unstoppable."
"You have to block it even if you can't. How much courage does it take for the enemy to attack from the bottom of the city to the top of the city? Are we all cowards in the Feng Army?" The more he heard, the deeper Zhang Yuangang's brows furrowed. When they originally discussed the plan, Their main attention was on the method of defending the city, and they did not consider the measures to prevent unexpected situations. Now that the situation was not optimistic, it became more and more obvious, and he already felt that he was caught off guard.
While Zhang Yuangang was talking to the herald, Tang Jinjian and the other Feng Army generals were very anxious. Not long ago, good news came from their side frequently, but in less than a quarter of an hour, the situation changed so much. But if you really think about it, They had done their best to defend the city, and they had the same thoughts from top to bottom. Tang Jinjian couldn't find a suitable reason to blame Zhang Yuangang now.
"Marshal, how should our army adjust now?" The military situation was urgent and there was no need to delay. The general who came to ask for military orders immediately urged.
"Marshal, what should we do if our army loses?" Then, another general asked.
…
Several generals threw all their questions to Zhang Yuangang. The situation changed. Those people did not even have the ability to analyze the current situation. After those few people asked questions, Tang Jinjian, who was not far from Zhang Yuangang, stood up from his seat and said: "Marshal, Is there any plan to defeat the enemy?"
At present, a large number of star troops have climbed up the city wall, and the number is still increasing. Tang Jinjian cannot predict the next development of the situation, but he still has high hopes for Zhang Yuangang.
"Master Tang, there is no need to panic." There was no countermeasure, but Zhang Yuangang still felt that the priority should be to stabilize people's hearts at the moment. So, after responding to Tang Jinjian, he said to the generals below: "You guys, hurry up and lead the troops. When fighting, be sure to hold the city wall."
"Yes," I don't know where Zhang Yuangang got that calmness, and I also don't know if Zhang Yuangang had any strategy to retreat from the enemy, but the generals had to obey the military orders, and they all agreed, and then they went out to lead their troops in combat.
After those people left, the hall suddenly became much cleaner, with only a few guards at the door, Zhang Yuangang and Tang Jinjian remaining.
"Sir, don't be anxious. There are many sergeants in the city and the city wall is so narrow. The number of Star Army personnel who can climb the city must be limited. As long as our army resists tenaciously, there will be no problem in guarding the city gate today." After letting those generals leave, Zhang Yuangang comforted Tang Jinjian. One sentence.
At this time, Zhang Yuangang calmed down first. Now is not the time to discuss any omissions in their previous plan, but to find a countermeasure as soon as possible.
