The Era of Generals

Chapter 376   Just plan

"attack!"

The road was completed, and the Qingyang Empire didn't hesitate any longer, and the sword and shield troops that had formed their formation earlier waded frantically towards Xilong City.

Under the deliberate command of Zheng Yuanyun, the boulders thrown by the catapult troops were spread out, opening up the road for our troops as much as possible, so that although there was only one gravel road, once it was paved, the soldiers who charged at the same time Still looks majestic.

"Hit, hit me hard!"

Ning Zhenggang was furious, and swiped down heavily with his raised right hand!

The Qingyang army had already entered the attack range of Xilong City. After holding back for a long time, how could he be polite, and immediately issued an order ruthlessly.

boom--!

This time it was the turn of Xilong City to roar. The cataclysm loaded with boulders on the city tower revealed ferocious minions. Every time a claw popped out, a meteor fell from the sky!

Because the enemy army was on the river, Ning Zhenggang didn't ask people to burn kerosene on the catapult. After all, after the catapult fell on the river and was soaked by water, the effect would not be too great.

It would be better to pour kerosene directly along the city wall. If the enemy rushes to the city later, they can also ignite the kerosene, turning the entire city wall into a wall of fire, which will play a certain defensive role.

But even without the bonus of Lie Yan, the number of trebuchets prepared at the head of Xilong City is huge. Although it is not as good as Zheng Yuanyun's reserve, but under a round of salvo, it still makes people feel that the sky is dark, but it is covered. Throwing stones block the sun.

boom!

Boom boom boom boom!

Huge boulders rained like rain, and fell crazily on the rushing sword-and-shield troops. Even with shield protection, the vanguard troops were still smashed and turned on their backs. Countless soldiers rolled in the river, which made the Qingyang Empire rush. Slow down.

However, although this salvo was effective, Ning Zhenggang on the top of the wall frowned first.

That's right, their trebuchets in West Longcheng are not bad either, and they can play a huge role. The soldiers who fell to the ground and died violently under the city are the best proof.

But there is also a problem, that is the ammunition of the trebuchet!

The ammunition shot by the catapult is of course a catapult, and in order to attack the enemy in the river, they can only blast the catapult into the river.

This indirectly led to the fact that they are also helping Zheng Yuanyun build roads!

As more and more stone-throwing shells were fired, the hastily paved gravel road on the river would become more solid, and it would also give the army of the Qingyang Empire more places to stay.

In the end, it was impossible for his trebuchet to exert its current power, and to concentrate the attack power at one point to maximize the firepower.

The widening of the gravel road will allow the enemy to use a more dispersed formation to charge towards Xilong City. At this time, the advantage of the enemy's number of times that of our own will expand and become bigger and bigger, and finally become an opportunity for victory .

What a vicious guy!

Ning Zhenggang clenched his fists violently, his eyes crossed the moat, and seemed to fall directly on the face of the opposing commander.

Zheng Yuanyun!

Ning Zhenggang believed that he could see the key to the problem, but Zheng Yuanyun couldn't see it?

No, of course he could see it, and he could see it more clearly than himself.

At the moment when the gravel road was not so wide, he couldn't wait to order the soldiers to attack. Wasn't he thinking of this?

Now Ning Zhenggang is very convinced that Ouyang Lixing asked him to hold back the enemy army, not because of his authority, but for real reasons.

Seeing how anxious Zheng Yuanyun was, even at the cost of sacrificing his own soldiers, he wanted to achieve the goal of quickly attacking the city, which clearly showed that he really wanted to take Xilong City faster.

Only after taking Xilong City, can he go one step further and rush to the wider interior of Nantes Province.

Take the lives of your own people to fill up this river?

Ning Zhenggang's eyes were sharp and cold, but his heart felt chills.

This cold-blooded guy is willing to use his own soldiers as stepping stones. He can do this. It is conceivable that when Xilong City was broken, in order to vent his grievances, he even confessed to his soldiers What will Zheng Yuanyun do.

Massacre the city!

Blood debts can only be paid with blood.

No matter whether he really wanted to avenge his soldiers, or it was just for superficiality and to give his subordinates an explanation, the decision Zheng Yuanyun would make afterwards would definitely be to massacre the city!

In this way, the city cannot be broken!

Ning Zhenggang's eyes flashed sharply, and the huge pressure pressed down on his shoulders like a mountain.

On a big scale, it is for the Nantes province, for the Zhuyan Empire, and on a small scale, it is for his own life and even the lives of all the soldiers and civilians in West Longcheng. No matter what, West Longcheng cannot be lost!

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Stop throwing stones, switch to bow and arrow to kill the enemy!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the generals around were surprised.

Abandon throwing stones and change bows and arrows?

The enemy army under the city is mainly armed with swords and shields!

There was a large group of people in the darkness, and everyone had a thick shield with strong protection in their hands, and they used bows and arrows to fight...

Can you move?

The scene of sparks splashing when the dense arrow rain hit the shield, and the countless broken arrows seemed to appear in the minds of all the generals.

Hundreds of thousands of swords and shields are used as forwards, and archers do not have much room to play in front of this formation. To say that it is effective, only the attack of the trebuchet is the most effective.

With archers, it is better not to fight.

Ning Zhenggang didn't care about the surprised faces of these people, but when he saw that they were not moving, he glared angrily again: "Why, what I said doesn't work anymore?"

"This... this is not..."

The generals were hesitant, they didn't dare to disobey Ning Zhenggang's order, so they could only give orders.

Not long after, the Qingyang army in the river regrouped. Sure enough, as Ning Zhenggang expected, after that round of stone-throwing volleys, they found more footholds and rushed towards Xilong City at the same time. There are many more soldiers.

Arrows rain like locusts!

No matter what the generals thought, Ning Zhenggang's order was carried out immediately. The soldiers who gave up throwing stones and exchanged bows and arrows shot wildly with all their strength. The power of the sun is even stronger than the stone-throwing offensive.

However, not many people expressed their expectations for this.

Then someone in the river shouted loudly: "Raise the shield!"

Boom!

The sword and shield players in the swift charge stopped for an instant, and at the moment when the arrow rain was about to approach, the tens of thousands of sword and shield players in the lead all moved forward with their heavy shields!

The shield formation has been trained to the chest, and after this meal, the layers of heavy shields are suddenly connected into one piece. From a distance, it looks like a huge turtle shell.

The rain of arrows poured down, immediately arousing infinite sparks, which seemed to be infinitely powerful, but the damage it really caused was...

Looking from the top of the city, there were probably only a few hundred swordsmen who were unfortunately hit by the arrow and fell to the ground, which is simply negligible.
