"The Xia army is attacking the city!" Until, a guard of the Dongli Kingdom guarding the wall of Wangdong City seemed to realize something, and suddenly let out a panicked cry, which immediately broke the peace.

Immediately, there was a lot of movement on the city wall. More and more defenders climbed the walls. After a while, even the defenders of Wangdong City also stepped out of the city tower, accompanied by the soldiers defending the city, observed the movements of the Xia army, and began to dispatch troops to deal with the enemy army at any time.

Not only that, but a large number of arrows, stones, rolling wood, and boiling oil, which were useful for defending the city, were all carried up by the defenders of Wangdong City to prepare for battle.

Knock knock knock...... The war drums of the Xia army sounded! A heavy drum beat shook everyone. The Xia army is about to attack the city!

The army of the Xia State is not weak in offensive. A whole team of longbows, with a murderous aura, marched forward in formation. Behind the longbow team, several groups of soldiers carried ladders one after another. Behind the ladder, there are more than a dozen improvised catapults. These are all the weapons and equipment that the Xia Kingdom wants to attack the city wall of Wangdong City, and the lineup is grand and murderous, so that the soldiers of Wangdong City who are standing on the city wall at this time suddenly understand that there will be a fierce battle in front of them.

The faces of the soldiers defending the city in Wangdong City were extremely grim, and the faces of the guards were even more pulpy. He knows very well that whether he can hold the east city wall is very important.

This is the city wall of the capital of Dongli Kingdom, not the frontier territory, and once the city wall is captured, Dongli Country is in danger.

Thinking of this, the guard subconsciously looked into the distance, at the rear of the Xia army, the dozen or so improvised catapults would be the first weapons to be used by the Xia army. Boulders were about to be thrown at them to look at the defenders of the eastern city. In fact, although these catapults are simple versions of the structure, their lethality should not be underestimated, and I believe that if it were not for the lack of wood in Wangdong City, Xia Jun would definitely be able to make more and better catapults.

This is all the more provable. The Xia army is bound to win this battle. The guard secretly thought to himself, this battle, if it is not successful, it will be benevolent.

But soon, the guard's heart sank. For while he was thinking, the enemy army was close under the city walls. Seeing this, the guards immediately regained their minds and signaled all the soldiers defending the city to be ready to attack.

Sure enough, under the orders of the generals of the Xia army, the boulders were suddenly bounced up, and they rushed straight to the city wall of Wangdong City in a parabolic trajectory. The boulder is huge and fast under the catapult of the catapult. If you are hit, you will definitely die on the spot.

This wave of offensive must be dodged first, and it must not be force-hit. Therefore, the garrison of Wangdong City immediately ordered the soldiers to crouch against the city wall, so as to resist the attack of the flying boulders with the help of the strength of the city wall. The defender originally wanted to attack as a defense, and ordered the soldiers on the city wall to shoot the soldiers of the Xia army with bows and arrows. But after the first test, it was found that it was probably because of the cover of catapults. Or deliberately in order to avoid the range of the bows and arrows of the soldiers of Wangdong City, although the Xia army was close to the city wall, they paid special attention to leaving a safe range, so that the bows and arrows sent by the soldiers of Wangdong City could not hurt them at all. So, guard for a while. The only way to do this was to order the soldiers to dodge the boulders and then try to fight back.

But the Xia army, once it struck, did not seem to intend to give the soldiers of Wangdong City a chance to breathe, after the catapult's attack. Immediately after, boom, boom, boom...... Hundreds of arrows flew towards the city wall at a rapid rate almost at the same time, and at first glance, it looked like a rain of arrows.

It's easy to dodge the boulders, but it's even harder to dodge the quicker arrows.

Seeing this, the defender could only re-issue the order to delay the attack again, and at the same time exchange the minimum casualties for the consumption of the enemy's weapons. As for himself, he clenched the sword in his hand, and his eyes burst out with raging anger and cold murderous aura! He shouldered the heavy responsibility of defending his home and country, and was never afraid of the enemy's attack, and only waited for the most suitable time to rise up and kill the enemy!

"Kill!" The infantry of the Xia army, under the cover of this rain of arrows and boulders, quickly seized the opportunity, and rushed to the city wall of Wangdong City while shouting the slogan of charging while their comrades carried the ladder to the city wall.

At this time, the defenders no longer held on to peace, and immediately ordered the soldiers to attack, and must not let the Xia infantry have a chance to climb the city wall.

For a time, the defenders of Wangdong City cautiously dodged the sharp bows and arrows that continued to attack them, and at the same time, with the help of the battlements of the city wall, they shot arrows through the arrow holes to hit the enemy. Even, as long as the location is suitable, he does not hesitate to come out and quickly shoot arrows to kill those Xia State infantry who have already climbed half of the city wall by using the cloud ladder.

The rain of arrows was dense, and from time to time several Wangdong City soldiers who were defending the city fell, but at the same time, several Xia State infantry were shot by sharp arrows and fell from the high city walls and died.

The two sides have been in a stalemate for a long time, with casualties on each side.

After a while, in the rear of the Xia army's military formation, a load-loaded crash car was pushed out, and several Xia soldiers joined forces, roaring and slamming it into the gate of Wangdong City, and repeatedly impacted, about to knock the gate of Wangdong open, so that the army could drive straight into the city!

The two armies attacked and defended, but the offense and defense could not be distinguished, and the big battles were ......

Two hours later, inside and outside the city, there were countless dead and wounded. The Xia army had to retreat with a loss of more than 5,000 combat strength.

Bai Qi has been sitting in the center of the army, supervising the entire battlefield.

"Dashuai, I'm defeated. A wounded general knelt in front of Bai Qi, crying and pleading.

"Alas, it's not easy for you either. Get up and go and bandage your wounds. Bai Qi didn't mean to blame him. The general, with a thousand soldiers under him, was the first group of siege soldiers, and more than eighty percent of them were killed or wounded, and the number of people who could come back was less than three hundred, and he had already tried his best.

The wounded general left, and the big tent became lively again.

There were no people who volunteered to fight, but no one proposed to evacuate either. Today, almost all the generals can see that the siege of the city is not something that can be broken once or twice.

It's just that at this time, as long as Wangdong City is captured, the people involved will be a huge credit. Bai Qi didn't need it, but these generals did. With these merits, military generals can be promoted to become wealthy, and they can also protect the food and clothing of future generations.

Therefore, after the discussion, the generals looked at Bai Qi, and he ordered the generals to decide the generals who would attack the city tomorrow.

Bai Qi smiled slightly, his face was full of confidence, but there was a little helplessness in his eyes, he was about to speak.

Suddenly. A man hurriedly broke into the big tent.

"Report, the Western Front found a large army. A lieutenant of the Left Wing Cavalry knelt down to report.

Bai Qi was taken aback, stood up, and said, "How many centaurs are there?"

"The horses of the left-wing cavalry suffered heavy losses, and hundreds of horsemen were nowhere to be seen...... "The lieutenant reported.

Inside the big tent. The crowd was shocked.

An army that can wipe out hundreds of horses at once will not be a small army, at least more than 3,000. An army of this size already has the power to decide a war. However, they appeared when the Xia army was attacking the city, and the Xia army could not help but defend it.

"Handsome ......" the generals looked at Bai Qi.

Bai Qi thought for a moment in silence and said, "Gong Wei, you send a scout horse to figure out how many enemy troops are coming." ”

There was a pause in his tone. Bai Qi continued: "Ziqi, you lead 3,000 troops, cooperate with the cavalry on the left flank, build a defensive line in the west, and defend the camp. ”

"Yes!"

The two generals were ordered to come out.

After another hour and a half, the horse returned that the enemy army was stationed in Zanglong Valley.

Bai Qi moved slightly, Zang Longgu knew it. It's a small basin, not a dangerous place. Where are the Eastern Departure Army stationed. What does it mean?(Xia Guo didn't know much about the situation of the Dongli Army, which led Bai Qi to always think that the enemy army coming from the west was the reinforcement of the Dongli Army.) ）

What is the strategy of the Xinghua Army to lure the enemy?

Actually, it's very simple, so simple that Yi Xingchen feels that Xia Jun may not be fooled.

It was a very accidental logistics transportation when I met Xia Jun exploring horses. The Xinghua army deliberately left out a carriage full of food and wine, and then fled in a hurry, and the items on the carriage became the trophies of the Xia army.

These foods are no ordinary foods. It's a large piece of fatty beef, and a fragrant and strong liquor. This sake doesn't taste very good, but it can ward off the cold. Many soldiers in the army like this wine the most.

In particular, when Bai Qi and the generals analyzed the enemy army in Zanglong Valley and guessed the enemy's next move, the food and liquor captured by the cavalry on the left wing of the Xia army were sent to the camp tent of the Xia army. According to the report of the cavalry, the amount of supplies transported by the enemy seems to be quite large.

When the generals of the entire Chinese army battalion heard this, their hearts were moved. Because the Xia army entered the east and left the country, the logistics were not easy. Xia Jun's diet has always been tight.

Almost the entire Xia army high-level came to a conclusion. The new enemy army seems to have abundant food. Moreover, it is very likely that it is to be delivered to the food in Wangdong City.

At that moment, the general named Ziqi asked the marshal, and they wanted to try the quality of the enemy army in Zanglong Valley. If the enemy army is not strong, they will eat this enemy army and grab food and drink.

When Bai Qi heard this, he was also moved. However, Bai Qi didn't dare to send only three thousand troops to test, and if he wanted to fight, he would win. After a night of planning, Bai Qi decided to attack the city tomorrow and changed it to a feint.

Bai Qi cautiously dispatched nearly 5,000 elite infantry, with 3,000 cavalry, to annihilate the enemy army in Zanglong Valley and grab food. Bai Qi also considered that the army would be ambushed.

However, after repeated calculations, Bai Qi believed that even if the ambush existed, it would be difficult to hurt Xia Jun's muscles and bones. There is another point, that is, Zang Long Valley is not far from Wangdong City, and he is not worried that the army will be surrounded and annihilated.

Early the next morning, the temporary military camp of the Xinghua Army in Zanglong Valley began to prepare breakfast.

The two Xinghua officers deliberately climbed the guard tower to observe the surrounding situation.

"Do you think Xia Jun will be fooled?" asked Li Ke.

"Not necessarily. Eli replied.

Li Ke and Eli stood on the watchtower, eating canned food somewhat boredly. They are the bait of the Xinghua army, and yesterday, just in Zanglong Valley, a huge granary was built, waiting for the Xia army to be fooled.

It is estimated that every day, Li Ke and Eli will lead more than 500 soldiers of the Xilin Legion, burying the pot to make rice, adding ingredients for three meals, and the cooked meat will smell fragrant for ten miles. The king demanded that the liquor alone should be sprinkled more than a dozen times, so that the entire valley basin would be filled with the aroma of wine.

It was a heartache for Li Ke and Eli to watch the soldiers waste food and wine.

"If Xia Jun has not been fooled, we will not be killed!" Li Ke was a little resentful.

Eli smiled and comforted: "Don't think so much, trust me! how much we lose, how much we can get back from the Xia army and the Dongli army!"

"What Xia Jun and Dongli Jun have in their hands has long been ours. What's the benefit of giving us our stuff?" said Li Ke dissatisfied.

"Come on, what do you think, I really can't go on. Eli was helpless, thought about it, smiled again, and said, "However, what you said is also good, their things have long been ours Xinghuaguo!"

The two officers immediately laughed, and they both thought what the other said was interesting.

Suddenly, the soldiers on another guard tower exclaimed, "Enemy!" and the soldiers quickly sounded the alarm. Bell ......

The temporary camp of the Xinghua Army, as if it had been rehearsed, was quickly assembled by 500 soldiers within a minute.

Li Ke and Eli quickly descended the watchtower.

"Ready!" Li Ke shouted.

Five hundred soldiers then marched in front of the camp, rifles, in column after column.

This is a bait, and if you want Xia Jun to believe that this bait is real, not only the grain and grass inside are real, but also Xia Jun to believe that they will not give up the temporary camp easily.

Therefore, they must resist one or two, and it is best to inflict some casualties on the Xia army.

Li Co and Eli, organizing the soldiers, hid behind the rejection of horses.

With its superior forces, the Xia army did not seem to be in a hurry to attack the temporary camp of the Xinghua army.

The general who led the army, finding the rejection of horses in front of the gate of the temporary camp, decided to attack the infantry and the cavalry to respond.

Seeing a group of infantrymen, armed with swords, guns, bows and arrows, ready to rush over, Li Ke and Eli glanced at each other, and they both felt that the generals of the Xia army were stupid.

In fact, the general of the Xia army was not stupid, but he had never encountered the Xinghua army, and he didn't know that the Xinghua army's weapons were firearms. The generals of the Xia army knew about the alchemist's crystal energy gun, but the crystal energy gun was too expensive, and it was absolutely impossible to equip an army. Therefore, the neglect of the generals of the Xia army is normal thinking.

In any case, the generals of the Xia army gave the order to attack.

"Kill!" Xia Jun was like a rainbow and shouted like thunder.

If it was a new soldier, he would definitely be intimidated by the momentum of the Xia army and would not dare to resist.

Not only that, even when the Xia army charged, the battle formation was not chaotic, and it was really an elite army.

However, the soldiers of the Xilin Regiment of the Xinghua Army are not recruits who have not fought in battle. Many of these soldiers had participated in the Xilin War, coupled with strict military training, even if they were afraid of the momentum of the Xia army, they would not take half a step back.

300 meters, 200 meters, 150 meters, 100 meters、...... Eli measured the distance between the enemy and the camp.

"Fire!"

The enemy entered the effective range of the rifle, and Li Ke immediately gave the order to open fire.

Bang bang bang......

The enemy soldiers in the front row fell to the ground one after another.

Seeing this, the generals of the Xia army also ordered the archers to shoot arrows.

Woohoo......

The archers still had some influence on the Xinghua army.

However, because of the stab-proof uniforms of the Xinghua Army, coupled with the defensive posture of the Xinghua Army soldiers, most of the soldiers were safe and sound. A small number of soldiers were killed and wounded......

A large number of Xia soldiers fell in front of the camp and could not get up again.

The generals of the Xia army soon noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered the archers to step up the attack and cover the infantry.

However, the first batch of 1,000 infantry went out to fight almost completely wiped out, and few of them returned.

"What kind of weapon is this?!" The generals of the Xia army were shocked! )
