Wang Yan heard a shout from Lu Kai next to him and wanted to dodge again, so he heard the strong wind above his head, and subconsciously lowered his head, and then felt the helmet tremble, and a sound of "do~" sounded behind him. When he turned his head to look, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, only to see a feather arrow shoot off his helmet and nail it to the wall behind him.

Xu Shu saw that Zhao Yun didn't shoot Wang Yan with an arrow, and secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, but he didn't know that Zhao Yun's original intention was not to hurt people with a secret arrow, but just to stop Wang Yan from saying more, so he deliberately shot at the helmet. When the vine armor army under the city saw that their commander shot down the helmet of the city defender with an arrow, they immediately burst into cheers.

Zhao Yun put away the Falling Moon Bow and said to the city in a cheer: "Wang Taishou doesn't need to say much, I'll just fight to the fullest." The next time you and I meet, I won't show mercy to anyone. "Let's fight the horses and return to the battle.

What else is there to say? Wiping the cold sweat on his head, he said to Lu Kai: "When did such a fierce general appear in the barbarian cave, it is really terrifying!" ”

Lu Kai was apprehensive and shouted: "Fortunately, this person is kind, otherwise it would be unimaginable." We must guard against this man. ”

As soon as the two finished speaking, they saw the high-morale barbarians under the city holding rattan shields, escorting the chariots and ladders to approach the city wall. Wang Yan hurriedly ordered the defenders of the city to release arrows, and for a time the arrows rained down.

The vine armor of the vine armor army is a strong crossbow configured in the trap camp, and it can't be shot through with a single arrow, let alone defend against ordinary arrows. I saw that the 30,000 vine armor army was divided into three sides, braving the rain of arrows to advance step by step, and thousands of arrows not to mention shooting the vine armor soldiers, even the formation of the vine armor army was not destroyed.

The defenders of the city saw that the bow and crossbow of the vine armor army were injured, and their eyes widened in shock. As a well-informed Wang Yan, who was too guarded, he was even more shocked and said: "What a hell! In the past, the barbarians did not wear armor, but how can the armor of these barbarians be so good today? ”

Lu Kai had never heard that the vine armor army was only a well-armored barbarian soldier under the city, so he suggested: "The barbarian armor is not afraid of arrows, so we can only wait for it to go to the city and hit it with rolling wood and stones." No matter how strong the armor is, it is difficult to prevent wood and stone. ”

When the king heard this, he ordered his soldiers to stop firing arrows and prepare to roll wood and stones. When the defenders saw that the vine armor army had arrived at the city, they pushed the rolling wood and stones down from the city.

Although the rolling wood stone is powerful, it has a short range, and can only be used to hit enemies at the base of the wall, or to deal with enemies who climb the wall. The vine armor army commanded by Zhao Yun and Xu Shu was very smart, and although they arrived at the city, they did not approach the root of the wall. Because they knew that this attack was only a feint, the purpose of which was to consume the defenders' arrows and defense equipment, not to fight the enemy, and to push the improvised siege equipment in addition to confusing the enemy army.

The vine armor army is not close to the city wall, and the role of rolling wood and stone is quite limited. Except for a few unlucky vine armor soldiers who were crushed by the rolling stones, the rest of the vine armor soldiers were far away from the attack of the rolling wood and stones.

The defenders of the city were a little dumbfounded when they saw that the bows and crossbows and arrows could not hurt the rattan armor army, and there was no use for rolling wood and stones. Wang Yan asked Lu Kai: "These barbarians don't get close to the city wall, and they can't do anything about rolling wood and stones, so what should we do?" ”

Lu Kai smiled: "Since they don't want to go to the city, we don't have to consume wood, stone and arrows, but we want to see what they can do under the city." ”

Wang Yan was right to think about it, the vine armor army could use rolling wood and stones to deal with the city, and if they did not go to the city, they did not need to consume material resources, so they let the city head soldiers stop the attack, and only wait for the vine armor army to enter the city and then use the rolling wood to beat the enemy.

Seeing that the arrows, wood and stones on the city had stopped, the vine armor army under the city carried earth and stones to fill the moat, and also dismantled the simple ladder and put it on the moat, and filled the moat in a few moments. At this time, Wang Yan and Lu Kai knew that these barbarians were not here to attack the city, but only to fill the river. However, it was too late to react at this time, and the moat had lost its effect.

Xu Shu saw that the Tengjia army had filled the moat and returned to the camp, and Wang Yan and Lu Kai did not dare to pursue, and this battle was fought, and there were no casualties among the soldiers on both sides. The next day, Xu Shu repeated his old tricks, but this time the siege was the east, west, and north gates, leaving the south gate not to attack, and the moat outside the north gate was also filled in after a battle.

Wang Yan and Lu Kai didn't know what the idea of the barbarians outside the city was, so they could only order the soldiers to be careful. On the third day, Xu Shu ordered 30,000 rattan armor soldiers to be divided into three teams, one team to attack, and the other two teams to rest, each attack only to the edge of the city but not to the city, twelve hours a day three shifts, always keep 10,000 vine armor soldiers wandering around the city.

Lu Kai thought that Xu Shu was using a tired strategy, so he ordered the defenders in the city to be divided into three teams to defend day and night. In this way, after another three days, Wang Yan and Lu Kai found that the barbarians outside the city were only harassing the city every day, and there was no sign of attacking the city at all, but the defenders of the city were worried all day long to guard against the sudden attack of the barbarians, and it was obviously not as easy as the barbarians outside the city.

Wang Yan found Lu Kai and said: "The barbarian soldiers outside the city are divided into three teams to besiege the city with tired soldiers. At first, we thought that as long as the soldiers in the city were also divided into three teams to welcome them, this plan would be solved. Now it seems that our soldiers are still exhausted, and the royal dragon's plan has worked. If we continue like this, when our soldiers are tired, the barbarians under the city will rush up, and this city will be in danger! ”

Lu Kai said: "What Taishou said is extremely true! In my opinion, the soldiers in the city can be divided into five teams, and the three teams of brutes outside the city can be dealt with. In this way, the soldiers can take turns to rest, even if the barbarians enter the city, as long as the soldiers in the city hold on for a while, the other four teams can come to the rescue. ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he thought so, because even if the guards of the city were divided into five teams, there would be more than 4,000 people in one team. It may be that 4,000 defenders will not be able to stop 30,000 barbarians from attacking the city, but there is no problem in delaying it for a while. After all, the barbarians can't fly, and the hoarding of rolling logs and stones on the city walls is enough to delay the barbarians from landing in the city. So Wang and his wife acted according to the plan and divided five teams to defend the city in turn.

In a village courtyard in Yongchang City, Nan Ye, Hua Bei, Dian Wei, and Zhou Cang were sitting together chatting and drinking. It was as if the two armies outside the city had nothing to do with them.

Long before Zhao Yun and Xu Shu besieged the city, Nan Ye and others pretended to be merchants and entered Yongchang City first. It just so happened that someone in the city wanted to sell this village, so Nan Ye directly bought it as a base. However, a hundred mage guards and a hundred ghost guards could not all live here, so Nan Ye ordered them to disperse and find a place to live.

After Zhao Yun and Xu Shu besieged the city, Wang Yan and Lu Kai also checked the spies in the city several times, but they were all avoided by Nan Ye. This is also due to Nanye's Han identity. Wang Yan and Lu Kai killed and never imagined that the barbarians besieging the city would send a group of Han people into the city.

On the surface, the four of Nan Ye were very leisurely drinking and having fun, but if they looked closely, they could find that the four of them were a little absent-minded, always wandering from time to time, pricking up their ears to listen to the movements outside the hospital.

Hua Bei couldn't help but ask in a low voice at this time, "Master, can Mr. Yuanzhi's plan be successful?" Will Wang Yan really divide the soldiers again? ”

Nan Ye is still very confident in Xu Shu, after all, Xu Shu is also a super-first-class strategist, and his intelligence is second only to Wolong and Fengxiao, and he is not much compared to Guo Jia and Jia Xu. Nan Ye smiled and comforted Hua Bei and said, "Didn't Yuan Zhi's previous strategies all succeed!" I think it won't be long before the king will divide his forces to defend the city again. ”

Dian Wei also said: "Even if he doesn't divide his troops, we can take a city gate, there is nothing to worry about." ”

As soon as the words fell, one of the mage's personal guards walked into the courtyard quickly and bowed to the four of them: "Qi Qi National Teacher, Wang Yan has divided the city sergeants into five teams to take turns to defend the city. ”

"Mr. Gennao is amazing! That's all for him to guess. Hua Bei immediately became happy when she heard the news.

Nan Ye smiled at the same time: "Great! There was one more team than expected, and if there were five teams to defend the city, each team would have only 4,000 men, and one city gate would have 1,000 men, which would be no match for us. ”

Dian Wei said: "I will order someone to contact the guards in the city." ”

Nan Ye waved his hand and said, "Don't worry! Wait two more days, and the guards will be slack, and then I won't be too late to do it again. ”

Two days later, in the east gate of Yongchang City. The bright moonlight pulled out a long shadow of the rows of houses, and in the dark shadows, two hundred black-clothed people quietly hid among them. Among them, a hundred black-clothed men wore heavy armor and black mud on their faces, and they were the mage's personal guards. The other hundred black-clothed men were a head taller than ordinary people, each with skull heads, and they were the disguised ghostly pawns.

Nan Ye poked his head out of the alley and glanced at the city gate not far away, then turned his head and asked Zhou Cangdao, "Yuanfu, are you sure that the Tengjia Army is outside the east gate at this time?" ”

Zhou Cang nodded and said: "Mage, don't worry, I have already figured out the law of the rotation of the dragon to attack the city these days, and I have specially visited it tonight, and there will be no mistake." ”

As soon as Nan Ye and the others entered the city, they lost contact with the outside of the city, but this did not affect the cooperation between inside and outside the city. Although Xu Shu's Jihua did not set the time for attacking the city, he formulated a general policy, that is, the outside of the city cooperated with the inside of the city, and the inside of the city cooperated with the outside of the city, no matter which side caught the fighter first, it could launch a surprise attack, and the other side only needed to cooperate with the action.

This kind of jihua seems to be general, but it is flexible and easy, and it will not fail because of sudden changes, even if you miss an opportunity, you can wait for the next opportunity. Every time the vine armor army outside the city approaches the city gate, it is actually an opportunity, and Nan Ye in the city can launch a surprise attack at any time as long as he masters the law of siege. Because no one knew the specific time of action when Jihua was formulated, the possibility of leaking secrets and revealing flaws was eliminated.

After Nan Ye and Zhou Cang confirmed, he stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the void, and a card appeared in Nan Ye's hand. Nan Ye said silently: "Mount card, remove the card!" ”

White light flashed in the dark alley, and then a huge body appeared out of thin air at the mouth of the alley, and a huge reflection instantly enveloped a large area of land. The giant beast that appeared at the mouth of the alley was a white elephant and a golden corpse wearing vermilion lacquer painted iron armor.

As soon as the huge white elephant appeared, the ground trembled. The domesticated dogs of the surrounding people barked wildly for a while. At the same time as the white elephant's golden corpse appeared, Nan Ye used his soul control and self-control skills, controlling the white elephant and himself to rush towards the city gate, followed by the mage's personal guards and ghostly pawns.
