Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Cypriots Advance with All Their Troops
Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Cypriots Advance with the Whole Army
、、、、、、
Looking at the battle situation in front of him, the blond-haired Governor William said sharply: "Drive all the slaves to me, and you must pull out the enemy camp today!" ”
"Yes, Your Excellency the Governor!" The guard immediately turned around to deliver his orders.
Soon, groups of slaves with rudimentary weapons braved the sky to drop flying stones, stepped on the broken corpses under their feet, and walked timidly!
The overseers in the back are constantly whipping, driving and persecuting!
The whizzing sound of arrows, like a drizzle in early spring, continued to shoot out of the camp, shooting and killing the enemies who approached the camp one by one, whether it was the soldiers of the Cypriots or their slaves, more than 4,000 people in the camp of Phoenix Fort showed no mercy!
"It seems that the Cypriots are completely angry and have pushed all the slaves into battle!" Gongzi Wei Xing stood on the high shelf and said in a low voice.
"Childe, don't worry, the heavenly fire is ready and ready to be released at any time, no matter how many enemies they send, it's useless!" Ning Xiaowu looked triumphant, patting his chest and reassuring.
In the late autumn of last year, Ning Xiaowu was appointed by Gongzi as the person in charge of oil exploration, and since then he has been full of spirit and has a very positive work attitude, and finally achieved good results after continuous experiments;
Since the outbreak of war, he has been constantly encouraging his son to use the newly invented Sky Fire weapon to give the enemy a little color.
"Don't worry, this is the killer weapon of our Phoenix Castle, it is easy to use it until a critical moment, and the amount you extract is still a little less, and it will not be able to win a battle for the time being!" Gongzi Wei Xing gently admonished.
Ning Xiaowu, who wanted to be in the limelight, immediately hung his head and was depressed.
The oil weapon named Tianhuo, but one of the weapons that Gongzi Wei Xing values the most, the results of the test are so-so, and it still needs to be constantly debugged, he doesn't want to expose it too early, so that the enemies around Phoenix Fort will be vigilant and lose their unexpected lethality!
The Huyan Leopard on the side was a little confused, he didn't understand what kind of weapon Tianhuo was, and he didn't know what Childe had figured out again!
"Then I'll go back and continue to let people increase their mining!" Ning Xiaowu was a little frustrated and wanted to step down from the high platform.
"Don't worry, you don't need to go to Tianhuo, it's not certain for the time being, you need to see the situation in the later stage, you stay in the camp first!" Gongzi Wei Xing looked at the scene of flesh and blood flying outside the camp, and instructed very cautiously.
Ning Xiaowu wished that the enemy's offensive would become more and more fierce, so that his Heavenly Fire weapon would have a chance to be used, and he would go down.
At this time, Gongzi Wei Xing suddenly said loudly: "The critical moment has come, the soldiers of the Cypriots have finally appeared!" ”
"Uncle Huyan, the crossbow team will be handed over to you, try to kill and injure the enemy's living force!"
Huyan Leopard's spirit was shocked, and he arched his hand and said: "Childe, you can rest assured!" ”
Then, he jumped off the platform in high spirits.
Looking at his excited appearance, Gongzi Wei Xing had no choice but to shake his head and turn his gaze to the battlefield again.
As the Cypriot soldiers entered the battlefield, it was clear that the soldiers of Fort Phoenix were under invisible pressure, and the frequency of firing flying stones and arrows increased much faster!
"A recruit is still a recruit!" Childe Wei Xing sighed helplessly!
This is the fifth day of burning the enemy's grain and grass at night, and Gongzi Wei Xing obviously does not want to have a quick decisive battle with the Sai people, so he adopts the turtle tactic of closing the camp, wanting to delay as much time as possible and drag down the Sai army that lacks food sources!
Although the Cypriots have been desperately scavenging food from small tribes within a radius of several hundred miles in the past few days, it still seems that it is still not enough to feed more than 40,000 people!
Since the afternoon before yesterday, William has been sending slave troops to take turns to besiege the camp of Phoenix Fort, the real purpose is just to consume some of the rations!
Although Gongzi Wei Xing sympathized with these innocent slaves in his heart, he had nothing he could do;
At the moment of the war, there was no room for the slightest kindness of a woman, and for the sake of the lives of tens of thousands of people in Phoenix Fort, he immediately issued an order to attack mercilessly!
The soldiers of the Cypriots carefully held their shields in their hands, and when they gradually approached the camp, they suddenly launched a counterattack under the loud horn behind the battle, and after the sharp arrows were fired into the camp, they quickly advanced forward!
The enemy army, which had been suppressed by the stones and arrows of Phoenix Castle, suddenly came here and struck a sudden blow, which was somewhat unexpected by Phoenix Castle!
Fortunately, Phoenix Fort had already barely equipped its own soldiers' leather armor and leather hats, and there were no major casualties for the time being.
Then, Gongzi Wei Xing gently took away the shield in his hand, stood up cautiously, and saw that the banner of the governor of the Cypriots was slowly advancing, and his face became solemn!
"It seems that the enemy army wants a quick victory, and Governor William, who has never met him, is not just a brave and reckless man!" Gongzi Wei Xing muttered to himself, and after a while, he jumped off the high platform with his shield on his head, and shouted loudly to Ning Xiaowu not far away: "Xiao Wu, let your people be ready at any time, listen to orders, the enemy's army has already pressed up!" ”
"Yes, Childe!" Ning Xiaowu responded very excitedly.
Immediately, Gongzi Wei Xing ran in a few steps, quickly jumped onto the wooden frame on the inside of the camp fence, remembered with the soldiers, and carefully observed the attack situation outside the camp!
It is impossible to be shot in the head by an arrow when wearing a fur hat, but the strength of the arrow hitting the fur hat will still be suffered by the person who was shot!
Due to the disparity in troops, Phoenix Fort could only organize two rounds of rotation.
However, as the army of more than 20,000 Serbs advanced into the territory, the pressure on Phoenix Fort gradually increased, and everyone's mood became heavy, and they all knew that the most dangerous moment was coming.
At this time, due to the very frequent firing intensity of the stone thrower, more than a dozen of them just destroyed some parts and were immediately taken down for repair!
This is a very bad omen, which makes Gongzi Wei Xing's brows tightened!
"It seems that the secret of Tianhuo has to be exposed today!" He thought with great regret in his heart.
He also wants to shock the crowd after Tianhuo, and now that it is exposed too early, it will make potential enemies have some precautions, and he is also desperately looking for traces of oil, which can be used as a sharp weapon for attacking the city!
After a while, Gongzi Wei Xing quickly reined in his emotions, and he had experienced a lot of helpless things in the world, and his endurance was still quite strong.
As time passed, the Cypriots, despite huge losses, still forced their army under the camp of Phoenix Fort, and the wooden fence of the camp trembled under the attack of their weapons, as if it might be broken by it in the next quarter of an hour!
Once the fence is breached, the forces of Phoenix Fort are no match for the Cypriots at all, even if everyone is wearing leather armor and leather hats with extraordinary defensive functions, it is difficult to avoid a crushing defeat, and the situation is an abnormal crisis;
At this moment, Huyan Leopard suddenly rushed out of the camp, dragging his war spear, and alone against the tide to kill the direction where the enemy's handsome flag was.
"Stupid!" Gongzi Wei Xing immediately turned his head and shouted, "Xiao Ning, it's time for you to play!" ”
It is an extremely remarkable move to win the commander alone in the army, which is not an easy thing to do, and the risk is quite large!
Otherwise, the matter of the three armies seizing the commander is not worthy of being praised by literati and writers for thousands of years!
"Okay, Childe!" Ning Xiaowu turned his head excitedly and said loudly: "Brothers, it's time for us to exert our might!" ”
The people behind him held wooden boxes one after another, and immediately ran to the location of the stone thrower.
Others have dipped their arrows in kerosene and set them on fire, ready to be fired!
