When Li Tianhao led his troops to cross the Nanra River again and return to the west bank, he found a serious problem, that is, he could not return to Epsommiton City.

In the days he had been fighting with Pius's forces, Libera had already surrounded Epsmilton. After a tentative attack, Libera confirmed that although the walls of Epsommiton were not particularly high, the bravery and morale of the barbarian warriors in the city were a formidable existence, and if they were to attack, the Yaggi army would suffer heavy casualties.

Brooks believed that although the barbarian soldiers were brave, they regarded it as cowardice to retreat in the city, so if they adopted the means of besieging and not attacking for a long time, they would become impatient if they could not fight, and at that time, they could be tricked out of the city and annihilated by a little lure, but they should be wary of Li Tianhao's cavalry being able to defeat Bius on the east bank and quickly return to help, and the Yaki army would be in a disadvantageous situation if it was attacked from inside and outside.

Therefore, Libera has set up many horse guards on the periphery of the encirclement these days, and then cooperated with the formation to effectively prevent Li Tianhao's cavalry from attacking.

Facing the Libera army with such a posture, Li Tianhao frowned. If you attack rashly, it will not work, and it will cause a lot of casualties, but if you don't attack, you will have little food and grass left, and if you don't enter Epsmilton to replenish, you can only collect it in nearby towns. Moreover, Li Tianhao quickly confirmed that Libera had taken the lead in requisitioning the surplus grain in the nearby towns for military use, and if he went to take away the only rations of the people, not only would the insufficient amount but also provoke a popular uprising.

"The first time I was cut off from supplies. Libera, this guy is so uncute. Li Tianhao scratched his head and said.

"Then we have to storm it now, Boss?" Alam suggested.

Xenas on the side looked at Li Tianhao with a smile on his shoulder. Looks like it's none of your business.

Li Tianhao muttered: "Actually, there is a way to enter the city. The problem is that now that we have entered the city to solve the problem of grain, I am afraid it will not be so easy to come out again. Libera is not a fool. He won't give our cavalry another chance to fight. Once our cavalry loses the advantage of mobility, there is nothing to stop him from doing anything outside the city. ”

"But you have to make a choice, and it's better to choose either than not to make a decision." Cenas finally spoke.

Li Tianhao nodded when he heard this. However, everyone present could see that Li Tianhao was extremely entangled in his heart.

At this moment, Jamo hurriedly delivered a secret report. Li Tianhao unfolded it and finished reading it, and suddenly laughed: "In this way, it seems that I can only take care of the current crisis first, and please leave the big thing like the overall battle situation to others." ”

The next night, as the Sentinels of the Yaki Army were half-asleep with their eyelids drooping, a loud roar pulled him back into reality.

"What a sound is this!"

"Enemy attack! It's a lot of cavalry! ”

"Enemy attack! Get up! ”

The chaotic shouting lifted the Yaki soldiers from their slumber as they took up their weapons and took their positions. Only then did they see where the loud noise was coming from.

"Cow! It's a herd! ”

It was the herd of cattle, Li Tianhao spent a day collecting 600 ploughing cattle from nearby towns, and then lit a fire on the tail of the ox, and used the fury of these cattle to surprise the enemy formation.

The barrage was shattered by the angry herd, and the herd that had broken through the barn rushed towards the Yaki soldiers, but the soldiers who wanted to dodge were hindered by the thick lineup around them, becoming the unfortunate ghosts of the cows under the hooves, screaming, the sound of the sternum being crushed and the roar of the oxen were intertwined. The torches flickered and tumbled and fell to the ground, before being trampled on. Although the number of cattle was small, it literally tore a big hole in the camp of the Yakees. Following the herd, Xenas led the cavalry into the Yaki camp. The bloody rain and bloody wind suddenly swept through the camp of the Yaji Army.

Upon receiving the news of the surprise attack on the camp on the south side, Libera immediately got up from her bed and, after confirming that the enemy forces in the city were not moving, ordered: "Immediately order Campbell to bring 2,000 men to support!" ”

"Wait a minute, please. My lord. Brooks said as he walked into the tent.

Libera looked at him and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Brooks smiled. He said, "My lord, do you think that the thief army's attack this time is to defeat our army?" ”

Libera shook her head: "The barbarians in the city did not cooperate with the attack, which means that they are not prepared for a unified and coordinated attack. I think I want to break into the city. ”

"Exactly." Brooks sneered: "Since Li Tianhao wants to enter the city, why should we stop it?" ”

Libera suddenly understood, as long as Li Tianhao entered the city, then don't think about it again. In this way, Li Tianhao is equivalent to giving the entire Epsommilton region to the Yaji Army except for Epsommiton City. After that, Li Tianhao, who was trapped in the lonely city, would not be able to stop himself from resuming the supply line of the Yaji Army, and the only way waiting for him was to perish.

Libera immediately ordered that there was no need to send reinforcements, but Brooks said, "This is not appropriate, my lord." If you don't send reinforcements, it will make it too easy for Li Tianhao to enter the city, if you send reinforcements to delay them, please think, will the barbarians in the city not leave the city to respond? ”

Libera nodded and smiled: "You're right, when they converge and retreat into the city, will they send troops to take the opportunity to cover them for a while?" ”

"My lord."

Libera looked at the young adjutant, and it turned out that his vision was not bad, and Brooks must be a good planner in the future, so she said, "Then I'll leave it to you to arrange." ”

"Give it to the lower officer?" Brooks asked in surprise with a wink of his eyes.

"You're not going to let me down, are you?" Libera dropped the sentence lightly and sat back on the bed.

"Yes! The lower officials will do their best! Brooks gave a heavy salute and turned to leave.

Everything was just as Brooks expected, Epsommitton City found Li Tianhao's action and sent troops to respond, just when the two forces were combined into one and were ready to retreat to the city, Brooks's ambushed troops killed together, and Li Tianhao was caught off guard, fortunately, many generals fought to the death, so they were able to withdraw the troops into the city, seeing that Li Tianhao was still outside the city, there were only a few cavalry left behind him who had not yet withdrawn into the city, Brooks knew that the opportunity could not be lost, and he opened his bow and arrows at the moment, With the light of the fire, he shot an arrow at Li Tianhao, who was in the battle.

The arrow went straight towards Li Tianhao's throat impartially, but at the moment when he was about to hit the target, Li Tianhao suddenly flashed his head to the side! Just when Brooks was surprised that his arrow would miss, Li Tianhao also returned the arrow with his bow.

The arrow was so fast and so fierce that Brooks was so frightened that he threw his head back as hard as he could, and the feathers flew past the tip of his nose!

Brooks broke out in a cold sweat, and when he straightened up and looked at Li Tianhao again, he saw Li Tianhao swinging the approaching Yaji soldiers into two parts, and shouted loudly: "The one who released the cold arrow!" Even if you hide quickly, let's compare and contrast in the future! ”

After that, Li Tianhao swept the halberd in his hand, and at the same time, the spears in the hands of the three Yaji soldiers were cut off by Qi Qi, Li Tianhao roared, and the surrounding Yaji soldiers were frightened to take two steps back, taking advantage of this gap, Li Tianhao withdrew to the city with a horse's head, and the city gate creaked and closed.

Brooks wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered, "What a terrible guy, it seems that this guy's archery skills can be ranked first in Yaji." ”

Li Tianhao successfully withdrew to Epsommitton City, Libera immediately arranged various soldiers to strengthen the defense, and by dawn, the Epsommiton City was already like an iron bucket, even if Li Tianhao wanted to break through, it would be even more difficult.

Finally trapped the enemy chief Li Tianhao to death in Epsommiton, Libera was very happy in her heart. However, at this time, the situation of the war took a new turn, of course, not in the Epsommilton area, but in the south of Napatis. (To be continued......)
