"Oh, there is such a thing. The abilities of these ferocious beasts are really surprising!" After listening to his colleague's explanation, Fang Quyin nodded immediately to show that he understood a lot.
"Will the Yi Army only bring more than a hundred ferocious beasts, which will cause great trouble to us?" Yan Nantian asked again, who also understood.
"Probably not. The walls of Windless City are higher than ordinary city walls. If there is nothing for them to step on, it will be difficult for those ferocious beasts to climb up the city, let alone come up to attack us," the speaker The general's tone was certain, and he could conclude that those ferocious beasts would not have much effect.
"What do you think of the General? Do we need to guard against those ferocious beasts?" But Fang Quyin still couldn't completely rest assured about the ferocious beasts.
"General Zhang, arrange some outstanding sixth-level martial arts cultivators on the city as soon as possible. When the ferocious beasts climb up the city, be sure to kill those ferocious beasts as quickly as possible, so as not to affect the personnel arrangement on the city and reduce our army's The defensive effect," faced Fang Quyin's inquiry, Lan Xu immediately explained the response method he thought of.
He used to be a general stationed at the border, so he was no stranger to the ferocious beasts attacking the city. When the few people were discussing those ferocious beasts, Lan Xu had been thinking about Yijun's intentions. In his opinion, since Yijun had taken those ferocious beasts, Naturally, it is impossible to bring the ferocious beasts here simply to deter the Star Army, nor to let those ferocious beasts attack alone. The only explanation is that the commander of the Wing Army wants to use the ferocious beasts to cooperate with their soldiers to improve them. The speed of siege, so those ferocious beasts alone are not scary, the key lies in the cooperation between the two.
"Yes," the general Zhang Zhang mentioned in Lan Xu's mouth was Zhang DaDa. Zhang DaDa agreed and Zhang DaDa left directly to take charge of the matter.
"General Zhang, wait a minute." Seeing Zhang leave boldly, Lan Xu called out to him again feeling uneasy.
"What's the matter, General?" Looking back, Zhang Dadan was a little confused.
"Transfer here all the sixth-level martial arts cultivators who were among the top 300 in the last martial arts competition, and work quickly." Suddenly thinking that this was a good opportunity to train Zhang Jiutian and others, Lan Xu immediately explained, and then asked a few more The general went to help.
"General, the enemy commander is here," after the generals left, Yan Nantian pointed directly at the slowly approaching chariot below to remind Lan Xu.
Immediately afterwards, Lan Xu and several other generals looked down, and sure enough, Ruan Qiling, the commander of the Yi Army, was coming in a chariot.
"General Lan, I, Commander Ruan Qiling, came here to pay me a special visit. I saw General Lan's heroic appearance today, and he is truly extraordinary." The chariot stopped thirty meters away from the city gate, and Ruan Qiling slowly stood up and shouted to Lan Xu from the air.
"Marshal Ruan is so wise and powerful, why should we praise Lan?" Lan Xu responded with a smile, but Lan Xu wanted to see what the other party's purpose was.
"You and I are both commanders-in-chief of the three armed forces. Although we are in different camps, our status is not different. Today I saw the general's style. Ruan's trip is worthwhile. Why is it meant to praise him?"
"Marshal Ruan is so polite. Lan is just a rough guy. How can he withstand such ridiculous praise from the marshal?"
"In this case, Ruan should talk to General Lan about some business first," Ruan Qiling slowly stopped smiling and said with a serious face: "In the battle the day before yesterday, we both suffered about the same casualties. For our army, that's The casualties do not affect the overall situation, but they should be a considerable loss for your star army, so no matter how our army invited the battle in the past few days, General Lan chose to stay behind closed doors."
"Our army does have some casualties, but it does not affect the overall strength of the army. The reason why I stay behind closed doors is because I want to give Marshal Ruan a chance to attack the city, so that I can see Marshal Ruan's ability."
"What General Lan said is very righteous. I'm afraid your army sergeants don't think so. I heard that because of our army's repeated interference, your Star Army has not been able to sleep well or eat well in the past few days. How can you still do it today?" Have the strength to fight.”
"It doesn't take Marshal Ruan to worry about it. Our soldiers are energetic and have strong morale. We just wait for Marshal Ruan to lead his troops to fight them."
A verbal contest started immediately. Judging from the current situation, it was obvious that there was no winner.
On the chariot, Ruan Qiling stared closely at Lan Xu, watching Lan Xu's every move. This test was actually just that he wanted to have a face-to-face conversation with Lan Xu, so as to further observe Lan Xu's personality. Now look at Come on, just talking is of no use, they still need to fight to understand clearly.
"In that case, we will be divided on the battlefield," Ruan Qiling said with a slight nod to Lan Xu, and then motioned to the driver to drive the chariot back.
As soon as the chariot moved, all the sergeants who were paying attention to the conversation between the two commanders knew that the war between them was about to begin. Whether it was the Star Army or the Wing Army, everyone was a little nervous in the face of the upcoming battle.
Not long after, the chariot returned to its original position. Ruan Qiling immediately issued an attack order. War drums were beating, flags were waving, and under the sound of sharp horns, the wing generals distributed in front of the queue began to direct the soldiers to charge.
At the same time, a general came to report from the city tower that all sixth-level martial arts cultivators had gathered. Lan Xu nodded and looked to both sides of the city wall. Sure enough, he saw many more commanders on the city. After confirming that the manpower was in place, , Lan Xu directly issued instructions to fight.
The war drums beat, and on the long walls on both sides of the city tower, the archers guarding each crenel were ready to shoot, just waiting for the general above to order an attack. Behind them, in addition to the sixth-level martial arts cultivators they had just picked out, there were also There are infantry specifically responsible for blocking the Yi army from climbing the city.
Stones and rolling logs were piled all over the ground, and the space for movement in the originally wide city was now very narrow.
Not long after, hundreds of lightly-armed troops rushed out from the Yi Army. Those people held shields in one hand and ladders in the other and ran forward in unison, as if a large black cloud was moving. However, the overall number was not large. It looks like it is just a vanguard force. When the vanguard force leaves its original position, the wing troops behind directly move forward to fill the gap.
"Let go," after the Yi army entered the shooting range, the star army generals on the city who were directing the battle immediately issued the attack order.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," one arrow after another shot out rapidly, piercing the air and flying towards the wing army below. Since there were no archers to cover the wing army, they could shoot without any scruples.
"General, Yi Jun's behavior seems a bit strange!" Seeing that Yi Jun only sent a group of vanguard personnel and no one followed, Fang Quyin looked suspicious again.
"I know, don't worry about it for now, just let them rush over," Lan Xu's eyes flashed, and Lan Xu was a little confused as to why Yijun didn't use siege vehicles to lead the charge, but instead sent out some infantry first.
The Yi Army's actions didn't seem like they were going to attack the city with all their strength, but rather like they were testing them. But why the Yi Army would go to such unnecessary lengths? Lan Xu couldn't figure it out for a while, but he didn't think the commander of the Yi Army would take advantage of those soldiers. Life is a bet.
Amidst the screams, the Yijun fell one after another. The shields they held were indeed light, but they were too small to protect their entire bodies, so they were easily hit by random arrows, but no matter how many in a team there were People fall, and as long as there are still people alive, the team will continue to move forward.
There were already several teams under the city only tens of meters away from the city wall. Seeing that those people were about to run to the city, in desperation, the Star Army archers on the city naturally attacked them harder.
The Yi army suffered more and more casualties, but because of the fast charge, more and more teams ran to the city. When those who ran to the city disappeared under the eyes of the archers, the general above immediately reminded those on standby. Ordinary soldiers prepared to attack the enemy troops below with rolling logs and rocks.
"Attack," at this moment, the war drums of the Yi Army were beating again.
"Dong, dong, dong," a drum sound was as deafening as thunder. Then, Lan Xu and others saw some wing soldiers letting go of the ropes holding the ferocious beasts, allowing all the ferocious beasts to rush forward.
Those powerful ferocious beasts ran several times faster than the soldiers. Hundreds of ferocious beasts rushed out at the same time. The scene was a bit shocking. Following those ferocious beasts, the Yi Army's siege convoy moved forward quickly, siege vehicles one by one. Being pushed to the front of the queue.
"Resist the ferocious beast with all your strength." By this time, Lan Xu had roughly understood the intention of Yijun to send a vanguard force. Those ladders sent first were not for Yijun to climb the city, but for the ferocious beast to climb the city. No. Knowing how Yi Jun usually trains those ferocious beasts, Lan Xu knows that someone must stop those ferocious beasts.
"Yes," a herald received the instruction and immediately passed the military order to the flag bearers on both sides. Then the Star Army's flag waved in a different way. At the same time, the people on both sides of the city wall who were responsible for commanding the battle directly reminded those sixth-level martial cultivators. Be prepared to face the beast.
Most of the vicious beasts below are at the fifth and sixth levels. Based on their physical advantages, the combat power of those sixth-level beasts is actually stronger than ordinary sixth-level martial arts practitioners. Therefore, the sixth-level martial arts practitioners responsible for resisting the vicious beasts are not alone. Combat.
