Chapter 418 - Fire Suppression

The battle continues.

The attack that broke out at the top of Tianyuan City did not make the soldiers of the Qingyang Empire back down. Even though the number of soldiers who were killed and injured could not be counted for a while, more people rushed forward.

They knew that only by running faster and faster would they be able to survive the rain of falling stones and arrows.

retreat?

After going through the trials of blood and fire, how could these soldiers think so, in their eyes, they would either be torn to pieces by the enemy, or they would rush forward and tear the enemy to pieces!

Even if someone wants to retreat, is it possible to retreat?

What is the result of retreating without the commander's order on the battlefield?

It is also a dead word!

In addition, he will bear the reputation of being a deserter for life. Even if he does not die, he will not be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life, and even his family will be affected.

Why did you become a soldier?

Isn't it just to let the family get a better life?

Left and right are death, why not rush, why not fight?

If he dies, there will be a settling allowance for the family. If he is not dead, this is a great achievement, and it will ensure that the family will have no worries about food and clothing from now on.

Mr. Zheng said that after they completely captured the Nantes province, all the soldiers who participated in this battle will be rewarded for their meritorious service, and the huge reward will be tripled according to the size of their contribution!

As long as you get this vote, you will probably be able to live comfortably in this life!

The soldiers have naturally discussed this in private, and many of them are even planning to finish the battle, and after receiving the reward promised by Mr. Zheng, they will be disarmed and returned to the fields. .

So go!

So kill!

"Brothers, work harder, rush in and tear up these bastards, avenge your brothers!"

Some people were covered in blood and raised their arms and shouted, while others gritted their teeth and buried their heads and rushed forward. What's more, their eyes were already blood red, and they just held their shields high in front of them and ignored them, roaring wildly while facing the fierce arrow rain He threw the steel knife in his hand to the top of the city.

No matter whether you can hit him or not, if you are pressed and beaten like this, you always want to fight back.

The artillery fire continued.

Tianyuan City has been preparing for this for a long time. Naturally, it will not be over after one or two rounds of catapults. Ouyang Lixing, who is very experienced, even made an interval. He organized the catapults into three teams, and the first team finished attacking. On the second team, after the second team finished fighting, the third team took over. When the third team also opened fire, the ammunition of the first team had already been reloaded. The trebuchet troops can be connected almost seamlessly, continuously causing damage to the enemies outside the city.

In addition, when the troops of the Qingyang Empire rushed into the range of the archers under the rain of falling rocks, sharp arrows like locusts also poured down like rain, covering the sky and the sun, as if Large swaths of dark clouds floated in, and under the clouds, even the sight became much dimmed.

For a while, under the double blow of throwing stones and arrows, the 100,000 soldiers sent by Zheng Yuanyun to lead the battle seemed to be in a purgatory on earth, and there were very few soldiers who were able to break through the intensive cover attack by chance. Not an exaggeration.

Watching this scene helplessly, even with Zheng Yuanyun's cold heart, he couldn't help but look a little ugly right now.

It's not that he can't accept the loss of 100,000 troops, in fact, sending 100,000 troops first is just for a test, he wants to test the reality of Tianyuan City.

And this attempt gave Zheng Yuanyun the feeling of kicking an iron plate, which made him dizzy.

Not only does Tianyuan City look like a monolith, in fact, he is really a monolith, and he is not playing tricks at all.

How many troops did Ouyang Lixing deploy in Tianyuan City?

Because the newly reinforced city wall blocked the front, Zheng Yuanyun couldn't see it very clearly, but judging from the number of trebuchets and the density of arrow rain, Zheng Yuanyun, who was also extremely experienced, also had his own guess.

At least I'm afraid there are 500,000 troops!

If it weren't for such a large number of troops, how could they make the catapults almost seamlessly connected, and how could even the rain of arrows in the sky be very layered. At first glance, there are at least two archer brigades Taking turns drawing bows and nocking arrows?

And that's just on top of the city.

As a city defender's coach, Zheng Yuanyun believes that Ouyang Lixing will not have any common sense. He can't put all his troops on the top of the city to fight only this wave. He must at least have another army of the same number. The troops were rotated under the city, otherwise, with such a high-intensity battle, the soldiers would not last long and would be exhausted.

Not to mention exhausted to the point where you can't even hold a knife, at least it is impossible to guarantee such a strong output rhythm. Then, knowing that there are still a large number of troops on your side who are not on the field, it is obviously a waste of energy to make such a physical move. Unwise.

So, Ouyang Lixing deployed more than one million troops at this city gate alone?

What about the other two city gates?

This is not Xilong City, because there is a natural moat as a barrier, so Ning Zhenggang was a little negligent in defending the other three city gates at that time.

Of course, this was also due to the shortage of troops at that time.

And how many troops does Ouyang Lixing have?

Two or three million!

Zheng Yuanyun was clear about this number, and it wasn't just based on Xiao Du's inference from the marching traces left by the opponent at that time, but after combining this, there was another thing.

At the beginning, Ouyang Lixing had fought a big battle with Yan Haomiao on the frontier of Dongping City. From that battle, the troops invested by both sides would probably be this amount.

As for whether Ouyang Lixing brought all the troops he had at that time, it is difficult to say, but marching and fighting must start with the worst plan.

Therefore, Zheng Yuanyun assumed that Ouyang Lixing had nearly three million soldiers, and once he became ruthless, he would really deploy all his troops in Tianyuan City, and the other two city gates would also be impenetrable.

But is it possible?

Is it possible for him to make up his mind to fight to the death with himself here regardless of the two cities behind?

This courage is too big!

Zheng Yuanyun frowned, but did not take back the order to attack. While watching the artillery fire pouring down from the top of Tianyuan City, he thought secretly in his heart, starting from the worst plan, and deduced Ouyang Lixing at this time. strategic deployment.

But no matter what he thinks, he still thinks that Ouyang Lixing will not take such a big risk.

This person, he has seriously collected information, and he knows that the opponent always puts the overall situation first in the use of troops. Among the collected records of the opponent, he has never used troops at risk.

So, are you still thinking too much?
