Due to the poor position, the Star Army did not kill the enemy very quickly. Fortunately, each wave of reinforcements from the Star Army was very strong when they first entered the battle. A small problem would not affect their morale. It has been extended to a thousand meters. On the external front, the fighting between the two sides intensified.
Standing in the position of the main force, Lu Yunyou, like the other star troops who stayed behind, had been paying attention to the battle situation on the city. Even though reinforcements from their side continued to come up until now, it seemed that there were more wing troops on the long city wall.
Under the dazzling sunlight, the scenes of soldiers on both sides waving their weapons again and again, throwing their heads and spilling blood were extremely clear. Thinking that so many Star troops had already gone up but had not yet stopped the enemy troops, Lu Yunyou felt more and more that the people on his own who were going up now must be He had a narrow escape from death, or in other words, he would die in the end. Looking at him and the surrounding Star Army standing at the back of the queue, he didn't know how to view the scene on the city.
"The general has an order to seize the city wall at all costs. The first person to drive the enemy off the wall will be credited with the first credit." Just when Lu Yunyou was thinking about how many people would die in this battle and whether he could survive, two messengers came The official rode his horse to the bottom of the city, waving his command flag and conveying Lan Xu's latest instructions back and forth.
The people in the city had no time to look back at the situation below, but after receiving the order, they already had a clear goal. So, they rose up to kill the enemy and executed the order more accurately and quickly.
I saw the star army on the slope pushing the wing army back continuously, fighting from the slope to the city. The wing army had no way to retreat and could only resist desperately, but the final outcome was not very good.
Immediately afterwards, the murderous Star Army stepped on the corpse of the Yi Army and climbed directly up the crenel, fighting with the Yi Army on the city wall, constantly forcing the Yi Army back, and the situation became better and better.
"Kill all those who don't want to die." The bravery of the Star Army and the cowardice of our own soldiers angered the officers of the Yi Army. Seeing that their own personnel were greatly defeated by the Star Army, the battle line continued to move back, and the Yi Army generals were frightened and angry. He shouted loudly to the surrounding soldiers: "Anyone who retreats before the battle will be shot to death."
In order to stabilize the situation on the city, the Yi Army generals could only go to extremes. After all, there were more Yi Army on the city. With someone taking the lead in resistance, the Yi Army slowly stopped retreating and then started fighting with the Star Army.
"Marshal, our army is weak, and the Star Army is forcing our army towards the city." Under the city, a herald hurriedly came to report the situation to Ruan Qiling.
"To what extent?" In fact, Ruan Qiling had already made a guess when he saw his own personnel slowing down the speed of climbing the city, so when the herald came over, he was not surprised.
"Everyone has retreated to the city wall." Not daring to neglect, the herald explained the situation directly.
"Pass my military order to stop the Star Army's offensive at all costs." Knowing that Lan Xu was competing with him for control of the city wall, and considering that they still had the disadvantage of climbing the city, Ruan Qiling naturally didn't want Lan Xu to succeed.
"General Li, General Zhang, you two personally go to the city to take command. We must not let our army retreat." Ruan Qiling directly ordered the two generals who were waiting for orders as soon as his thoughts changed.
"Yes," the next moment, the two generals took the order, and then rode over. Now the second round of fighting had begun. Since he was not sure how tenacious the Star Army's resistance was, he did not dare to relax. Of course, Ruan Qiling had no confidence in his own soldiers. He still has a little confidence. In addition, there is another thing that worries him, and that is when the city gate can be opened.
As expected, there were tens of thousands of Star Army cavalry on standby behind the city. He wanted to send the shield soldiers to fight first, but he was afraid that Lan Xu had already thought about the shortcomings of the shield soldiers and how to deal with them. After much deliberation, he still felt that it was inappropriate to send the shield soldiers to fight first. , but after letting the cavalry pass, he was worried that his own cavalry would not be a match for the Star Army. After much thought, Ruan Qiling could not make up his mind.
While he continued to consider the battle strategy, the two generals of the wing army who had just left had already rushed to the city, one from the south and one from the north. They separately directed the soldiers in front to attack the city.
After Ruan Qiling's order was brought, the Yijun generals who were originally under the city shouted. Then, as if they were inspired, the Yijun rushed to climb up the tower one by one, and more and more Yijun climbed up the city.
Not long after, the Yi Army relied on their numerical superiority to drive the Star Army down the city. Unlike the previous breakthrough, which was only in partial areas, this time the Yi Army pushed the entire front closer.
There were fewer and fewer star troops left on the city wall, and it was difficult for them to fight with two fists. The star troops retreated from the crenels or stairs to the slopes to continue fighting with the Yi army.
"The Yi army's offensive is so violent that it is extremely disadvantageous for our army to fight from the bottom up." Under the city, Yan Nantian frowned and talked to the two generals next to him about the situation on the city.
"General Yan's words are reasonable, but the general clearly requested that we must not abandon the city wall." Due to the inconvenience of support, the general who replied even wanted to put down the Yi army to fight with them.
"I know, but I don't know what the general has planned. In my opinion, it may be more beneficial for our army to let the enemy troops come down." Having the same idea as the subordinates next to him, Yan Nantian also wanted to have a good fight with the enemy troops under the city.
"The general must have his reasons for doing that. General Yan, don't have any unnecessary thoughts, so as not to mess up the general's arrangement." The person who answered was an infantry camp commander. He looked back and glanced at the position where his main force had not moved. The commander of the infantry camp thought for a while and decided to carry out Lan Xu's military order.
"Yes," Yan Nantian nodded slowly, slowly drew his sword and turned around: "All the soldiers listened to my order, the whole army went straight forward, and tried their best to repel the enemy."
This was the third time that he sent troops to reinforce the city. Calculating that the number of star troops sent to fight had reached 30,000, Yan Nantian could no longer look down on the Yi army.
"Kill," it turned out that the Yijun drove the Star Army off the crenel again, leaving many Star Army soldiers below holding back their anger. Now it was time for them to vent their anger. On the thousand-meter-long battle line, tens of thousands of Star Army soldiers rushed upwards with shouts. , the momentum immediately frightened the wing army above, and at the same time brought confidence to the star army above.
After some careful consideration, Lan Xu finally made a decision. He did not expect a surprising strategy to win, but he had the idea of fighting the enemy to the death.
"General, fighting back and forth like this is not an option. I wonder if the general has a way to retreat from the enemy?" When Lan Xu made up his mind to fight the enemy to the death, he was already waiting for Zhang DaDa to directly ask Lan Xu for instructions.
"Defend the city gate and never lose the city wall, otherwise our army will be completely defeated." Lan Xu continued with a look in his eyes: "Now is the moment of life and death for our star army. There are more than 200,000 wing troops in front and 200,000 in the rear. Even for the two million people of Feng Kingdom, the victory or defeat of this battle will guide the choices of the people of Feng Kingdom. If our army is defeated, our army will be unable to retreat within the territory of Feng Kingdom, and it will be a dead end wherever it goes."
"General, what you mean is that the people of Feng Kingdom have decided to fight against us?" Zhang Bingdao was puzzled.
"It's not the case now, but once our army loses, this will inevitably happen."
"In this way, our army will have no choice but to fight to the death with the enemy." After understanding Lan Xu's intention to fight to the death, Zhang Dadan's fighting spirit became even stronger.
"General, why don't you open the city gate and let us rush out without leaving any of the Killing Wing Army behind?" In a moment of excitement, Zhang boldly asked Lan Xu for orders.
"No, the Yi army's shield soldiers are indestructible. A strong attack will only cause heavy damage to our army. If the Yi army dares to take the initiative to come in, I will be sure to destroy the enemy's shield soldiers," Lan Xu said with a meaningful look in his eyes. Looking forward to the next development of the battle.
"What does the general mean that we can only defend the city for the time being?" Seeing that Lan Xu seemed to have other plans, Zhang boldly asked.
"That's true, but you don't have to worry. Soon, the Yi Army will also attack. At that time, you have to stop them with all your strength. Don't let a Yi Army attack the rear of our city defense." Through dialogue, Lan Xu directly Pass on subsequent combat instructions.
"Quickly convey this general's order, no one can retreat, otherwise military law will be dealt with. Today our army will fight to the death with the Yi army. Even if we fight to the last man, we will never let the enemy troops cross the thunder pool." No matter how long the battle line extends, No matter how many more people were sent to join the battle, Lan Xu directly passed on the military order to fight to the death.
"Yes," the generals received the order, and one by one they were ready to join the battle. A spirit of disregard for death was directly transmitted from the generals to the soldiers below.
Lan Xu's words just now have made everyone feel determined to fight Yijun to the end.
"The general has an order. All officers and men shall fight to the death to recapture the city gates. They are not allowed to retreat even half a step. Anyone who disobeys the order shall be dealt with according to the military law." Not long after, the two heralds waved their order flags again and shouted back and forth under the city.
"The Yi army wantonly slaughtered our compatriots and wanted to push us into a desperate situation. We must not let the Yi army succeed. The general has ordered that all personnel guard the city wall at all costs."
"Our army has won consecutive battles and has not suffered a defeat so far. In today's battle, our army will win a complete victory, show off the power of our army and shock the world."
…
After the military order for the decisive battle with the Yi Army was conveyed, in accordance with Lan Xu's instructions, some heralds and some generals personally shouted words of encouragement to the troops outside the city, letting everyone understand that it was time for them to fight.
