Chapter 165
thump!
Under the oppression of Zhang Chengwang's momentum, Guo Zi's knees softened and he fell to his knees directly.
At the same time, his expression was terrified, and he said anxiously: "My lord, the news I brought back is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood!"
"You can send someone to Xiyun City to inquire about this matter, and you will know that the little one is not lying!"
"snort!"
Zhang Chengwang snorted coldly, "Of course they were sent, but they didn't come back so soon. The military situation is urgent. If the two of you are telling the truth today, we must attack the city!"
"So, this is the last chance. You still have time to tell the truth. Once the siege begins in half an hour, it will be too late for you to regret it!"
"When the time comes, I will try my best not to give up 200,000 people, and I will let you all feel what it is like to live a life worse than death!"
thump!
Du Jun also fell to his knees, his body trembling unceasingly. It could be seen that he was gritting his teeth to resist Zhang Chengwang's powerful momentum, but he couldn't resist.
"My lord... my lord, the villain has absolutely no lie!"
After Guo Zi, Du Jun also gritted his teeth and insisted.
"If your lord doesn't believe it, you can wait another day... No, in half a day, when General Ruan ordered me to come out of the Poisonous Mist Forest, he also led people to break through from the east, and I think it's almost here!"
"With General Ruan testifying for the two younger ones, perhaps the commander-in-chief will believe some of them!"
Guo Zi bowed his head deeply, clasped his fingers tightly into the grass, and the veins on the back of his hands were swollen. He almost exhausted all his strength after saying these two sentences.
Zhang Chengwang didn't speak any more, but looked at the two of them indifferently, until he saw that the cold sweat dripping from the foreheads of Guo Zi and Du Jun had soaked a large area of the ground under them, so he nodded slightly.
"Okay, I'll trust you once, so, everyone, let's go out and watch the battle!"
With a wave of his hand, the strong oppressive force of the high-ranking general disappeared immediately, which made not only Guo Zi, but all the other generals in the big tent secretly relieved.
Zhang Chengwang is the absolute commander in this big tent, even if there are other generals of the same level as him in the tent, no one dares to speak out when his aura erupts.
Going out to watch the battle is naturally to watch Feng Wu's siege battle. This delay, Feng Wu's side should almost be ready. .
Of course, the guards behind him would not let the two of them ignore them. Four people surrounded them, two stared at one, and surrounded Guo Zi and the two, which was self-evident.
The rest of the generals also followed Zhang Chengwang out of the big tent. When they looked in the direction of Bo'an, they saw that Feng Wu's troops had already assembled and were ready to go.
The vanguard army was already on the front line against Bo'an, and the lineup was already complete. Feng Wu just adjusted his usual formation in the past, and then ordered the engineering troops to bring in the siege equipment, and it didn't take much trouble.
Zhang Chengwang and a group of generals went up to the watchtower that was at the same level as the city wall of Bo'an. After inspecting the mutated cone formation laid down by Feng Wu, he nodded slightly, "Feng Wu is really good at siege battles."
Immediately, he personally picked up a command flag, stretched out his right hand out of the tower and waved it three times suddenly.
attack!
Feng Wu was at the head of the formation. He turned his head and saw the command flag issued by Zhang Chengwang. He raised his eyebrows sharply and shouted, "Come on!"
boom!
Although the 200,000 people accounted for less than one-tenth of the more than 2 million people present, they were far from comparable to the tens of thousands of people who fought in Xiyun City back then.
As soon as it started to move, the violent roar was like thunder rolling in the sky, and the sound was louder than the sound and shook in everyone's ears. At the same time, it shook people's hearts like a heavy hammer. It's not uncommon for both to die.
"here we go!"
Even Chen Ze, who was tens of miles away, was aware of the slight vibration from the ground.
Quickly clicked on Guo Zi's map, and after shrinking it to the minimum, he almost overlooked the battle situation outside Bo'an City from the perspective of God.
Then saw the sharp arrows composed of a large number of blue light spots come out of the string, and crazily hit the thick wall of Bo'an City.
"Command, get ready!"
Seeing it at a glance, Chen Ze immediately turned his head and gave Xu Qing instructions.
In the case of not possessing a general, Xu Qing was the one present who had the most experience in leading troops in battle, and generally he would entrust Xu Qing to do the general commanding of soldiers.
Whoo———————!
Bo'an City Head Bugle is a masterpiece. The bugle made of horns hollowed out sounds low but very penetrating. Dozens of bugles are blown at the same time. The sound is strong enough to warn the entire Bo'an City. people.
"Enemy! Enemy!"
When the guards at the top of the city saw Feng Wu's electric shot coming, their expressions changed drastically and they were not panicked at the same time. Under the command of the guard generals, they quickly took a defensive stance.
Hundreds of boilers were ignited at the same time, and lumps of solidified copper oil were thrown into the pot. After boiling, they would be poured into the trebuchet. The ejection would be devastating to the enemy. blow.
At the same time, there were soldiers constantly carrying rolling stones and wood, knives, guns and arrows from the armory below the city.
A large number of soldiers stationed in the temporary barracks just below the city also rushed up the tower while the trumpet was being played. Given the size of the Bo'an city wall, it was also full of people at this time, fully accommodating more than 100,000 soldiers.
In addition, there are at least 300,000 soldiers in the city to clean up their military appearance, waiting for their colleagues to take turns when they are either injured or exhausted.
For the frontal city wall alone, the conventional garrison strength has reached 400,000!
However, apart from the busyness at the main city gate, Bo'an City at this moment is surprisingly calm. Except for the 400,000 troops, there are no support troops coming from the city, and there are no panic-stricken people in the city. Outside the city gate, there was a dead silence.
Zheng Yuanyun, the lord of Bo'an City, did not appear at the main gate of the city where the battle will start. The person in charge of dispatching the defenders was only a general of the rank of lieutenant.
This was naturally the result of Zheng Yuanyun's order to evacuate the city after listening to Chen Ze's suggestion.
In three days, with the full cooperation of the City Lord's Mansion and the Military Aircraft Department, Bo'an City operated almost all night for three days. The population and even food in the entire city were almost emptied, leaving only the 400,000 people at the main city gate. The strength of the troops and the 100,000 troops at the deputy city gates on both sides.
Of course, Zhu Yan's army, which was still outside the city at this time, was completely unaware of all this. What Feng Wu could see was the swift response from the opponent's towers when he ordered the siege of the city.
Can this still be attacked?
While Feng Wu rode his horse to charge, he felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Based on his experience, after just a quick glance, he knew that with only his 200,000 people, he probably wouldn't even be able to touch the city wall.
