The archers above were about to withdraw, but some infantrymen had already walked to the vacant position with their items, but they were caught off guard by the flying army.
"Ah," facing the precise and sudden shooting of the flying army, the unsuspecting star troops fell one after another. In the blink of an eye, the situation on the city became chaotic.
"Retreat quickly," the general above saw that the situation was not right and immediately reacted and urged the archers who were about to withdraw. At the same time, some of the archers who had stayed behind also began to fight back at the flying army. However, the flying army was scattered and scattered. Many people have been shot by random arrows flying from the city while searching for their targets.
"Get down quickly." Unexpectedly, the flying army's shooting was so accurate. Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the generals on both sides of the city tower could only order the archers to find a temporary shelter. Next, they could only wait for the enemy's chargers to board the city in large numbers. Only the Star Army can carry out normal defense.
After a while, the Feijun chargers successfully ran to the bottom of the city. Just as those people were about to board the city, tens of thousands of archers from behind divided into more than a dozen square formations under the instructions of their general and advanced in order until they reached the bottom of the city and joined the infantry mixed in. The archers converged.
"The enemy's archers have evacuated. You must perform well next." The Feijun general who directed the battle was an archery battalion commander. Standing in front of tens of thousands of archers, the man immediately gave instructions to the archers below. .
It only took a blink of an eye from the flying army to rush to the city. While Shi Jiangchuan was greatly surprised, he also saw that Tie Xin was more strategic than he expected. The archer hidden under the ladder was simply a clever trick. , which directly caused a lot of trouble to the Star Army on the city. Not only that, but also allowed the charge personnel in front to rush to the city smoothly. Seeing that the flying army was about to board the city, the more he thought about it, the more incredible it became.
"Thanks to the three hundred flying ladders Shi Shuai borrowed, my soldiers were able to rush to the city with so little damage." Seeing the shock on Shi Jiangchuan's face, Tiexin smiled secretly, and then said another He said with a serious face: "Don't worry, Marshal Shi, Fei Jun will definitely not disappoint Marshal Shi today."
"I have long heard that your Fei Kingdom is good at riding and shooting. Today, I want to see how powerful the archers of your Fei Army are." After smiling in coordination, Shi Jiangchuan's eyes returned to the Fei Army in front. .
Those special ladders were only delivered yesterday. Before they could use them, he lent those ladders to the Feijun. Seeing that the Feijun used the ladders so well today, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't Show it.
"Don't worry, Shi Shuai, I will not let you down today," Tie Xin nodded, not minding Shi Jiangchuan's meaningful response at all.
"Marshal, the enemy troops have rushed to the city. Please go to the main hall to rest for a while." At the same time, in front of the city tower, seeing the enemy troops below setting up ladders on the city one after another, Yan Nantian immediately reminded Lan Xu.
"Well, I will leave the responsibility for defending the city to you, and report the situation at any time." He nodded. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Lan Xu knew that he was not suitable to stand in the center of the battlefield.
After saying this, Lan Xu left directly with several generals, and Yan Nantian was responsible for commanding the battle.
The enemy troops attacked the city so quickly and did not give their own archers a chance to attack. A series of unexpected actions made Yan Nantian realize that our own infantry battalion soldiers would be the main force in the next battle, regardless of the combat effectiveness of the flying army soldiers. , he is still very confident in blocking the Feijun attack.
After a period of adjustment, the situation on both sides of the city tower has returned to stability. Yan Nantian has noticed that the enemy troops responsible for the charge are all lightly armed and can climb the city very quickly. The star troops on the city must move faster to use the defensive force. The city's supplies prevented the enemy from climbing the city.
As the enemy archers stopped shooting one after another, the defenders on both sides of the city began to take action. The stones were continuously thrown down from the city by the Star Army, breaking the ladders that were about to be erected. For a time, all kinds of things under the city were The sound of wood breaking came and went, mixed with the screams of the flying army.
The lightly-armed flying army had only one way to avoid the attacks of falling stones. If they forcibly cracked the stones with their sword energy, the broken stones would only affect more people.
The nearly ten-meter-high city wall was a difficulty after all. The originally high-spirited flying army encountered a strong blockade, and casualties continued to increase.
On the contrary, as the defender of the city, in order to prevent the enemy troops below from rushing up easily, the Star Army worked very hard, bending their bodies and constantly throwing down stones and logs. There was also a man holding a gun at each crenel. Soldiers with spears were on guard to prevent anyone from entering the city at any time.
Seeing that the Star Army's defense was too strong, there was another movement from the enemy archers under the city.
"Boom, boom, boom," a black cloud flew up from below, flew higher and higher, and finally flew down in an arc to the location of the Star Army on the city.
"Ah," some Star Army soldiers who were busy carrying or throwing away stones were hit by falling arrows one after another. Under a series of screams, the Star Army soldiers on the city fell one after another. Numbers dwindled rapidly.
With just one round of shooting, Feijun lost nearly a quarter of the Star Army's troops on the city. Such a terrible attack effect made Yan Nantian stunned. However, Feijun's offensive was not over yet, and soon another black cloud fell, because In the situation just now, the star troops on the city had stopped their original actions, and now each one was carefully guarding themselves against being hit by random arrows.
Unfortunately, after the second round of shooting by Feijun, many star troops fell down. Then the archers who had not waited for Feijun launched a third round of shooting. The defenders on the city received Yan Nantian's order and hid behind the city wall. To prevent being shot by the enemy again.
After a military order was issued, Yan Nantian was shocked in his heart. He didn't understand why the enemy's bow and arrow attacks were so accurate. If the enemy's shooting was allowed to continue, the Star Army's losses would be immeasurable.
"Quickly pass the order so that the people below are ready for reinforcements at any time," Yan Nantian issued another emergency military order while considering how to avoid being attacked by flying archers.
At the same time, due to the suppression of the flying army's bows and arrows, the defenders on the city lost their ability to defend themselves. The sharp arrows that shot into the bodies of the star troops or penetrated into the ground all made Yan Nantian realize how terrifying the enemy archers were. Not long after an urgent military order was conveyed, countless flying troops took advantage of the Star Army's defensive gaps to successfully board the city from below.
After flying to avoid the Star Army's attack, as soon as they turned around, those flying soldiers attacked the Star Army hiding behind the city. For a moment, the frightened Star Army was killed and they were unable to resist.
"Dang, Dang, Dang," after both sides started fighting, the morale of the Star Army had been greatly suppressed by the flying army. They had to deal with the enemy troops that kept climbing on the city. In the panic, many Star Army's movements were obviously not agile enough, and the enemy was defeated. The army has more opportunities to attack.
Especially when some star troops were in a hurry and were about to stand up to fight, the flying troops rushing up behind them attacked them directly from behind. They were caught off guard and were attacked from both sides. The casualties of the star troops on the city increased rapidly. The two armies had just faced each other. In the confrontation, the situation has completely shifted towards the Feijun side.
Unable to receive reinforcements in time, the situation faced by the Star Army on the city became increasingly severe. As the number of flying troops on the city exceeded that of the Star Army, Yan Nantian could only report the battle situation to Lan Xu and at the same time send people to urge the reinforcements to come up.
"General Lu, General Yan orders you to quickly lead troops to the city to resist the enemy." Before that, a herald hurried over to convey Yan Nantian's order to Lu Yunyou.
As the leader of the second formation, Lu Yunyou was extremely surprised after receiving the order. It had not been long since the two sides had beaten the war drums. He simply could not imagine that the enemy could attack the city in large numbers in such a short period of time. , if this is the case, the intensity of the enemy's offensive has exceeded his knowledge.
While Lu Yunyou was thinking about the reason why Yan Nantian asked him to lead troops up so quickly, the herald officer saw that Lu Yunyou was unmoved and continued: "General Lu, the military situation is urgent and I hope you will leave as soon as possible."
"Yes." Awakened by the other party's voice, Lu Yunyou couldn't think about it any more and immediately passed on the military order.
What is surprising is that after Lu Yunyou assigned the support work as he did yesterday, when a group of soldiers were about to set off, a black cloud flew down from the front and landed directly dozens of meters away from the city wall. Waiting to see clearly After seeing that the arrows were fired by the enemy, Lu Yunyou and other generals realized that it was the enemy deliberately shooting at the location in the city to block reinforcements.
"General Lu, General Yan ordered you to come to the city immediately to support, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise military law will be dealt with." At this moment, a herald ran over from behind the arrow rain and hurriedly conveyed Yan Nantian's two instructions to Lu Yunyou.
"What?" There was a thump in his heart. He didn't expect that the military situation above was so urgent. Looking at the figures fighting on the city and the rain of arrows used to prevent them from ascending the city, Lu Yunyou suddenly became frightened.
"Everyone raise their shields and ascend the city without hesitation." Thinking that once the city wall was occupied by the enemy, they would be the ones attacking the city. Lu Yunyou suddenly felt nervous, but he did not panic. When Zhu Zizai was waiting When people cast questioning glances at him, Lu Yunyou immediately made up his mind.
"Yes," all the generals accepted the order and immediately divided into two teams to prepare to board the city.
