Chapter 672: The Most Tragic Siege Battle
After Xun Langyu heard Mu Youchen's words, he suddenly fell silent. The two choices are worlds apart.
If you rescue Seven Star City, it will only repel the army of the Southern Chu Kingdom. The two sides once again changed from a state of battle to a state of confrontation, and if they took advantage of the emptiness of Tianshui City to attack Tianshui City, they would cut off the retreat of the army of the Southern Chu State, and then the army of the Southern Chu State would inevitably be chaotic, and its commander would definitely retreat and recapture Tianshui City.
Even if Luo Ming was ruthless and wanted to kill Mu Youchen and them, it was worth exchanging a small city for a big city.
"What do you think he'll choose?"
Xuan Jiayin was silent for a long time before asking.
"The latter."
Mu Youchen smiled bitterly, Du Xiongfei was actually hesitant at that time, and it was she who made Du Xiongfei choose the latter.
"You forced him to choose, right? I guess it's your character, Du Xiongfei won't rebel, but you forced him to abandon his companions in Seven Star City and attack Tianshui City. ”
Xun Langyu smiled helplessly, what else could he say. This method is really good, if it succeeds, they will easily capture Tianshui City. But the premise is that Xun Langyu and they can defend Seven Star City before they succeed.
"So defending Seven Star City is the key, if we die, what's the point of him taking Tianshui City? Lang Yu, I want to take this opportunity to let you follow Du Xiongfei out of Tianshui City, only in this way, when the people of Tianshui City find out that it was Lord Xun Xiao who liberated them, they will be grateful to you and work hard for you. ”
Mu Youchen also came to Xun Langyu for a reason, in two days, when the city was besieged, it would be difficult for them to send people out of the city, so Mu Youchen wanted to send Xun Langyu away while the city was not besieged, so that Xun Langyu could play a greater role.
"I'm not leaving, I'm going to defend the city, I'm going to be with you."
Xun Langyu didn't look over, he didn't want to leave here, this place where he could fight side by side with his companions, even if he died in battle, he would have no regrets.
"Okay, let's fight together."
Mu Youchen nodded and said, but when Xun Langyu smiled, Mu Youchen suddenly made a move, slashed at Xun Langyu's neck with one palm, and immediately knocked Xun Langyu unconscious.
Looking at Xun Langyu lying on the ground, Mu Youchen's eyes were full of apologies. immediately called out to the door, and soon rushed in some guards, and then Mu Youchen told these things that the big war was imminent, and Xun Xiaowang was seriously injured and needed to be sent to White Horse City immediately, and they also asked them to rush back after handing Xun Langyu over to Du Xiongfei.
After sending Xun Langyu away, Mu Youchen was completely relieved.
When the time comes, Du Xiongfei will make good use of Xun Langyu's identity to make a fuss, Du Xiongfei is a smart person, Mu Youchen believes that he will make the best use of it.
And Mu Youchen can finally rest......
Two days later.
The Southern Chu State finally besieged the Seven Star City, and the heavy army surrounded the Seven Star City. Before the fight began, there was a flurry of arrows, but they rarely hurt anyone, and there were letters on those long arrows.
It reads as follows:
Today, my Southern Chuxiong Division has conquered Qixing City, with thousands of generals, 100,000 elite soldiers, and countless siege equipment. It is really whimsical that you are waiting for a small city with a small projectile and thousands of weak brigades in vain to confront the heroes of our big country. Luo Ming, the commander of our army, intends to recruit Er and others, as long as the surrender of the city is surrendered, the reward will be 1,000 taels, and whoever captures Mu Youchen alive, Xun Langyu ......
It almost means surrender, and the last one is to encourage the people. and threatened with the slaughter of the city......
It's just that these random arrows soon added to the quiver of the archers defending the city, at least four or five thousand, which is not a small amount.
The persuasion to surrender was fruitless, and the Southern Chu State began to beat the war drums of the attack.
The attack of the Southern Chu State was very simple, every time it attacked the city with an echelon of 2,000 people, when the front echelon suffered heavy casualties, it would replace the next echelon.
Moreover, the Southern Chu State adopted a siege on all sides, rather than a siege of three ques, obviously not intending to give the people in the city a way to live.
In addition to the front, there are about four or five thousand people on the remaining three sides, although there are not as many as tens of thousands of people on the front, but it is enough to prevent Mu Youchen from abandoning the city and fleeing.
Now Mu Youchen really doesn't have too many troops in his hands, counting the strong men collected in the Seven Star City, there are only 8,000 people, and there are only 2,000 people on each city wall.
But after discovering that the enemy's main attack direction was the city wall in the south, Mu Youchen also dispatched the main force to the south.
The first round of attacks was obviously tentative, and the Southern Chu State began to retreat less than two moments after the two sides came into contact, and then waited for half an hour before launching a second attack.
After the second attack began, Jing ** of Seven Star City began a bloody battle for three days and two nights. And this battle, also known as the most tragic siege battle, lost 80% on the defending side and a staggering one-third on the besieging side.
According to the memories of some soldiers of the Southern Chu State, the soldiers of Jing ** did not know when they would jump out of the houses or corners to kill their lone companions, and when their brigade of men and horses rushed over, the people of Jing ** would disappear without a trace, and the city gate that was originally in their hands would suddenly be taken away, and the city wall changed hands several times, so that some soldiers of the Southern Chu State sometimes did not know whether their own men and horses were guarding the city. Some soldiers were about to go crazy, and they killed people in other clothes when they saw them, and 40,000 innocent people died in this disaster, but there were also more people who waved their hoes, kitchen knives, and flat shoulders at the soldiers of Southern Chu in anger......
Luo Ming and Mu Youchen went down in history as losers and victors respectively, but now, none of them knew the outcome of this battle.
The process of attacking is boring, rushing up, dead and wounded, replenishing up, dead and wounded again.
Luo Ming was used to seeing such a scene, he had patience, three echelons rushed up, after losing nearly two thousand people, Jing**'s defense had been loosened, that is to say, the enemy's strength and defensive equipment began to be poor. This is a good sign, seeing that it is about to get dark, Luo Ming asked people to light torches, and let some Spirit King powerhouses who have never made a move before.
Luo Ming's subordinates have two Spirit King powerhouses, but he rarely lets these two people make a move, one is that these two Spirit King powerhouses have to pay a lot of treasures when they make a move, and the other is that Luo Ming wants them to be his killer weapon.
Now is the time......
It's just that these two Spirit King powerhouses have just risen into the air, and they encountered the resistance of Jing**'s Spirit King powerhouse, which should be said to be a Spirit King powerhouse, a demonic beast with a pitch-black body.
Jing**'s Spirit King powerhouse is naturally Chen Feng, who was subdued by Mu Youchen before, and the black demonic beast is Blood Black Xiaohei.
With the help of Chen Feng and Blood Crow, they restrained the two Spirit King powerhouses. But the situation still hasn't improved, Xuan Jiayin is already shirtless and bloody, and the old injuries on his body have not healed, and new injuries have been added. Not long ago, Xuan Jiayin's last guard died in battle, and the hundreds of guards brought out from King Cheng's Mansion all died in battle to protect Xuan Jiayin.
Hyun Jiayin didn't know that the only thing he wanted to do was kill all the enemies.
Mu Youchen was also in the middle of the battle, and she almost occupied the nearly five-meter city wall by herself. Ghostly steps flashed, each time setting off a terrifying wave of blood.
The same is true for Xiaobai, one man and one beast can support the city wall that can only be defended by hundreds of people.
It's just that this is simply a siege battle that will not end. Luo Ming planned to use the numerical advantage to consume them, and when Jing**'s forces were all concentrated on the southern city wall, the enemy from other directions also began to attack.
The northern city wall was the first to be lost, and 300 defenders of the city were killed and wounded. Immediately after that, the east and west walls were lost one after another. A large number of Nanchu ** teams rushed into the city and rushed to the south of the city.
Under such circumstances, Mu Youchen and Xuan Jiayin left the range of the southern city wall with the remaining soldiers and let the army of the Southern Chu State enter the city. It's just that what annoys the people of Southern Chu is that the city gates on all sides are poured with molten iron, and the cement bricks and tiles block the city gates tightly, and people outside the city can only rely on ladders to enter the city.
And there are still thousands of remnants of Jing ** in the city, divide the troops to pursue, take over the defense of the city wall, and try to open the city gate.
It was only when the soldiers of the Southern Chu State entered the city that they found that the Jing ** in the street battle was even more terrifying. I didn't say anything, every time I made a move, I took advantage of the fact that there were few people in the Nanchu ** team, and some people simply changed into Nan Chu** clothes and armor, mixed into Nan Chu**, and waited for an opportunity to assassinate.
In the second half of the night, the fight was still not over. The northern city wall was mixed with Jing**'s assassins, and the soldiers of the Southern Chu State guarding the city had long been extremely difficult, coupled with the large army entering the city, although battles broke out from time to time, but they thought that Jing ** only had a small force left to resist, and as a result, the five hundred soldiers of the Southern Chu State on the entire northern city wall were all killed.
Looking at the city wall with the changed flag, the Nanchu ** team fought hard to kill it, and found that except for the soldiers who died in their own battle, there was not a single Jing ** soldier.
The panic spread little by little, and the resistance in the city did not end.
In the early morning of the next day, half of the army of the Southern Chu State entered the city to exterminate the last remnants of Jing**. only found that the streets and alleys were full of the corpses of his companions, but Jing ** was only one of them mixed in.
It has been a day and a night, except for the four city walls of the Seven Star City, which belong to the Southern Chu Empire, the rest of the city is still under the control of Jing **. Jing**'s spiritual cultivators and powerhouses played an important role, and a strong man like Mu Youchen could even kill a team of thirty people alone, not to mention Mu Youchen, Xiaobai and Xuewu.
And the spiritual cultivators of the Southern Chu Kingdom were not so lucky, because Jing ** was like a cunning rabbit.
And for Mu Youchen and Xuan Jiayin and others, the battle has just begun. Mu Youchen's plan was to attract all the troops of the Southern Chu Kingdom to the city, so that Du Xiongfei would have more time to attack the city, after all, there were still many soldiers of the Southern Chu Kingdom in Tianshui City.
It's just that if you act quickly, plus it is a sneak attack, Tianshui City should not be able to stop the iron cavalry of the lord Du Xiongfei......
