"Knock! knock!"

The dull sound of drums sounded, the harsh sunlight shone on the ground, the swords in the hands of the soldiers reflected the dazzling light, and the pitch-black armor on their bodies was also full of lustre.

"What's going on, where are the drums playing?"

The deafening sound of drums could be heard for miles away, and even in the temporary camp of the Western Frontier Army at this time, the heavy drums like muffled thunder could be clearly heard.

A lieutenant general beside Shen Chi frowned and asked, subconsciously looking around.

Shen Chi also raised his head slightly, taking his gaze away from the map on the desktop.

The surrounding soldiers and commanders also looked around, and they were a little puzzled for a while.

"Isn't it the sound of the city? They don't want to go out of the city to fight to the death with us, right?"

One of the camp commanders touched his chin's beard, but turned his head to look at the Youyuan Fortress in the distance.

"Oh, the commander of the defenders of this city, under the repeated attacks of my army for several months, did not even dare to show his face, and the words were conveyed by the soldiers in the army, how could he dare to go out of the city and fight to the death with us?"

At this time, it was another camp commander who spoke his opinion and opinion.

Both of them have a point, and each other's statements are very well-founded to support them.

"That's it, let's stop for the time being, General Lu Yu is also reasonable, but General Zhu Yu is also good.

As for what the so-called Weishui Army drumming on this city is, I just need to wait to see it, don't you know?

Ruifu listened to the order and immediately arranged for his personal guards to accompany him. ”

Shen Chi smiled heartily, but he was the first to walk out of the camp and walk in the direction of the camp near Youyuan Fortress in front of the camp.

The camp commanders of the Western Frontier Army glanced at each other, and then followed Shen Chi's side, and a group of people walked towards the outside.

When Ruifu heard this, he immediately left with him, and arranged for his deputy to mobilize a large army of guards to accompany him.

Along the way, there were temporary tents of the Western Frontier Army everywhere, and all the Western Frontier soldiers stopped to watch in the direction where Youyuan Fortress was located.

At this time, as early as the first heavy drum was sounded on the tower of Youyuan Fortress, those soldiers of the Western Realm who had been patrolling and defending immediately gathered.

By the time Shen Chi and the camp leaders rode their horses to the front of the position, rows of elite Western soldiers armed with swords and spears were already standing in front of them.

"But what happened?"

Because Shen Chi and his party came too quickly, and the Western Frontier Army soldiers who were at the forefront at this time had not yet understood the intention of the Weishui Army, they had not yet sent a herald to the barracks.

"Returning to Commander Shen, a large number of soldiers suddenly rang out on the city, but there was no mobilization of soldiers and horses, and we don't know what its purpose is now. ”

A commander bowed in response, a little unnatural on his face, but there was a faint surprise in his eyes.

Naturally, because they hadn't sent the herald yet, the bigwigs in the rear camp had come to observe in person.

If one is careless, one is accused of delaying the military plane, then he will be completely finished.

But the surprise in his eyes was that he could personally report the situation in front of so many bigwigs in the army at this time, although he hadn't figured out what was going on.

But I have to say that the excitement in my heart is unbearable.

"Alright, the formation is good, let's get on with it. Shen Chi said appreciatively, and then his eyes fell on the wall of Youyuan Fortress.

When the commander heard this, he immediately smiled even more, and hurriedly retreated to continue the army.

At this time, the walls of Youyuan Fortress were charred black, covered with blood and countless scratches.

The moat below had long since turned from a clear and transparent river to a dark black and red sewage, and a large number of corpses of soldiers were scattered in it, and the scene looked terrifying.

And the drums on the top of the city were still coming, but from their vantage point, they could not see everything on the top of the city.

All they could see was the Weishui soldiers guarding the battlements of the city wall with swords and spears.

"Keep knocking, you can't stop for a moment, and when you're tired, you change a group of people, in short, you can't stop. Ye Xing looked at the whole row of drummers and said to Gu Xun beside him.

Gu Xun smiled bitterly: "Of course I know that I can't stop, but it's not a way to knock like this, why don't you take this opportunity to boost morale?"

After speaking, Gu Xun looked at Ye Xing steadily, and he looked like he would never give up if you didn't take the opportunity to boost morale.

Ye Xing looked at the Weishui soldiers around him, although they were full of morale, but judging from the chaotic eyes of a few soldiers, they were obviously also very curious about the drumming.

Boom Boom –

A team of soldiers took advantage of the sound of drums to start the demolition and relocation in the city, and the intact houses and courtyards were demolished as a whole.

It was like a locust crossing the border, and there was not a single grass growing at the end, and not a single brick, tile, or tree could be left.

The drums continued to beat as a team of soldiers continued to demolish the houses and quickly carry the masonry and wooden beams to the aisles of the city walls.

But in a moment a long pile of debris piled up.

"What the hell is going on on the other side? ”

Shen Chi and his party stared closely at the upper floor of Youyuan Fortress, but they couldn't see anything at all, but they were even more confused in their hearts.

made such a big move, the other party must be preparing some kind of conspiracy, and because of this, Shen Chi and his party didn't even have time to rest, so they could only keep sending a large army to prepare for war.

"What is this drum trying to do after so long?

Shen Chi frowned tightly, and under the protection of the guards at all levels, he looked at the Weishui soldiers on the city wall from time to time, but he couldn't see why.

However, although he couldn't see anything, he was also secretly guessing, and naturally when his eyes were fixed on the city wall, his attention shifted to the Weishui soldiers.

Judging from the actions of the Weishui soldiers and some signs, Shen Chi roughly guessed that the soldiers might be arranging in the aisle of the city wall of Youyuan Fortress, or they might be setting up some obstacles or something.

And the drums are meant to cover these ......

"No, no, come here, lead 15,000 troops in three teams to support the other three, and you can't let go of a single Weishui sergeant. ”

Shen Chi suddenly roared urgently, the drum sound must be to cover up something, if it was just to add soldiers, it was obviously a bit overkill.

Then it must be to attract their attention, and then let the army break through from the direction of the other three city gates.

Just gave the order, but Shen Chi was suddenly taken aback, this judgment ...... Is it right?

"Wait. Shen Chi suddenly said again, and the herald was stunned for a moment, and then stopped in place.

Secretly hesitated for a moment, Shen Chi secretly gritted his teeth: "The other three sects, each reinforcing five hundred martial arts strong soldiers, go and do it immediately." ”
