Chapter 948: Forced to Siege the City

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

As ordinary players, there is a very simple way for them to gain prestige, and that is to do quests. A mission can generally gain a little prestige, the difficulty of the task is not low, and the time required is also very long. But in order to get some good tasks, they also had to be patient to do it. Once that reputation is wiped out, it's a bit of a tragedy.

Of course, not everyone cares about prestige, and some players secretly decide in their hearts to defect from the Wu camp immediately when they see that the situation is not good.

Some of the smarter players have seen some clues from the changes in the rules of the system, and the kind of thing that allows you to freely choose a side will probably never happen again in the future. Ordinary players are no longer in full control of their own destiny as they once were, and their interests are entirely tied to the decisions of their naturalized liege. These changes also remind people that in the future, if they want to choose a place of naturalization, they must find a more reliable lord, otherwise they may not know when disaster will fall from the sky and make all their efforts completely useless.

It's just that now the players in Wu County can only continue to insist, because now that the war has broken out, they can't change their naturalization location during the war, otherwise it will be regarded as a mutiny.

……

After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Gong decided to attack the city. It's not that he wants to slap his swollen face and rush to the fat man, but he was forced to go to Liangshan and had to do so. If he gives up the siege at this time, although he can keep the army under his command, his morale will definitely be greatly damaged, and he will flee without a fight! The next time I face the Baiyun City army, I'm afraid all the soldiers will feel inferior. If that's the case. Do you still need to fight that battle?

In fact, Xu Gong still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, didn't the generals on the city wall say that Sunshine is resting in Haiyan County, if Sunshine did not bring troops with him on this trip, but came alone, then there could not be many defenders in Haiyan County, and he was still sure to take Haiyan County. If you're lucky, you might be able to catch a big fish, and if you can catch the sun, then this crisis will be over.

As soon as this thought appeared in Xu Gong's heart. It began to swell uncontrollably.

However, Xu Gong did not intend to crush all his troops. This is all his belongings, and he does not want and dare not fold all his army here. Therefore, although he continued to let the catapults outside the four walls continue to throw boulders at the walls, he only ordered the army of the northern wall to attack the city.

After the drums of the attack sounded, a group of NPC troops outside the northern city wall began to roar and rush towards the county seat of Haiyan. The siege ladder nearly ten zhang long was lifted by several people. Quickly approached the city walls. These NPCs are just ordinary people after all. But they don't have the ability to directly get the prompt of the main god of the system, so they don't know that the city they attack now belongs to Yizhou Mu Sunshine.

Of course, there were also player armies that came with Xu Gong to attack Haiyan County. Even some legions are made up of a mix of players and NPCs. These players are no better than NPCs, but they know what role the enemy they are about to face will fall, so they are now extremely reluctant to attack the inconspicuous town in front of them. However, the number of players is not dominant in the army, and several of them are about to sneak away after receiving a system prompt, only to be killed by the NPC leaders around them, on the grounds that they have escaped. With these lessons learned, the other players didn't dare to make any changes, so they had to stay honest and watch the siege battle of the NPC army in front of them.

500 meters...... 400 meters...... 300 meters......

There are not many city defense equipment in Haiyan County, and the four city walls add up to only a hundred, and they are basically fixed on the city wall, and the number of each city wall is only twenty or thirty, even if it is fully fired, the effect is minimal. However, Guo Jia did not hesitate in the slightest, and still issued the order to let catapults and ballistas attack, and in war, these instruments often have a greater deterrent effect than the actual effect.

The 50,000 troops sent by Xu Gong did not pay much price, and rushed to within two hundred meters of the city wall. But at this time, the archers on the walls began to exert their might.

At this moment, stationed on the city wall is the Lion Legion, which is a completely mixed legion, although it does not have its own specialties, but it also has no shortcomings, in addition to the cavalry, every class of the legion has a configuration, and the archers will naturally not be an exception.

It was the first time that the army under Xu Gong's command had experienced the collective shooting of the eighth-order soldiers, and the ultra-long range and powerful arrows exceeded the imagination of Xu Gong and the others. Seeing the soldiers being pierced by arrows, Xu Gong's heart began to feel a little cold. He knew that the army in the city was definitely an eighth-order archer, and the number was not low, at least twenty or thirty thousand. In Yangzhou and Yizhou, the only ones who can have so many eighth-order soldiers are Yizhou Mu Sunshine and Yangzhou Thorn Chen Wen.

However, since the matter had come to this point, Xu Gong would not be scared away by these two or thirty thousand people, and he ordered catapults and ballistas to aim at the city wall to attack, and at the same time transferred the army and siege equipment from the south. Siege three queyi, this is Xu Gong's idea, if the strength of the defending army is not very strong, the other party will not desperately defend the city, which can also reduce his losses in attacking the city. On the other hand, he ordered his elite heavy shield soldiers to escort his archers to the front line, he could not let the charging soldiers be completely covered by the enemy's arrow rain, he had to return fire and suppress the opponent's long-range attacks.

After being pushed onto the battlefield as a heavy shield soldier who specializes in restraining archers, it did have a very obvious effect. And this heavy shield soldier is also the elite force under Xu Gong's command, not only is it completely composed of seventh-order soldiers, but also very well taken care of in terms of equipment, the lowest parts on the body are also bronze-level, most of the parts are still silver-level, although it failed to form a suit, but the defensive ability is definitely strong, especially the thick heavy shield, which can give people a strong sense of security. Although the eighth-order archers on the head of the city were ferocious, they could not shoot through these heavy shields.

With the long-range support of his own archers, Xu Gong's army finally rushed to the city wall, and the siege ladders were erected and firmly fixed on the city wall, and the soldiers began to climb the city wall like ants.

In such sieges, most of the soldiers did not have a chance to rush to the walls, and most of them were knocked down halfway, either by arrows or by boulders. And some of the stronger or lucky soldiers rushed to the city wall, but because of their strength, they became a corpse in the blink of an eye, even more miserable than those who failed to rush to the wall.

In fact, in normal siege warfare, the troops who act as the first to attack are generally cannon fodder troops of a force, and these people have low strength, but they can play a role in consuming the strategic materials of the defending city. However, this time, in order to increase the speed of the march, Xu Gong did not bring cannon fodder troops, so even if it was a temptation, he could only send the sixth-order army up. Although it hurts, I have to do it.

……

Yang Tian had already come to the city at this time, his appearance undoubtedly brought a great shock to the players in the city, just now they heard the system prompt, saying that this Haiyan County has belonged to the sunshine, they don't know when this happened, because they still belong to the Rose City forces before going to bed last night. But at this time, when they opened the personal attribute panel, they found that their identity had actually changed, and they had become the lords of Baiyun City, and Haiyan County had also become a subsidiary territory of Baiyun City.

Now seeing Yang Tian, they finally understand that the transformation of their feelings and their identities was completed last night, and it was also the handover that Yang Tian personally came to Haiyan County to complete.

For most players, they don't care about the change in their identity, and even some people feel a little happy, after all, from the current point of view, the development potential of Baiyun City is greater, and it is definitely more promising to follow Yang Tianban. Of course, there are also some people who are not interested in Yang Tian's arrival, this part of them are super fans of the Rose Guild, or fans of the three roses, and they don't want to see Dong Bingyu and the three of them live under them. For these people, Yang Tian doesn't seem to comment on right and wrong, and he doesn't want to explain anything. Whether they accept it or not, it has no effect on himself.

Yang Tian stood on the city wall and looked at it for a while, and then felt bored. Compared to the war that took place in Beacon City yesterday, the one qiē here is undoubtedly pediatric.

"Fengxiao, how long do you think this Xu Gong can hold on?" Yang Tian asked with a frown.

Guo Jia said indifferently: "Lord Qiqi, Xu Gong is just testing now, and the army of 50,000 people is just sent to die, so it is impossible to estimate how long he will hold out." If we were stronger, he would have retreated soon, and if we had been weaker, he would probably have sent more troops to fight. ”

Yang Tian said: "Then let's end the war here!" We also need to return to Baiyun City as much as possible to deal with the affairs of the Nine Ghosts Jialong. As for this side, Xu Gong is just a small person, and it is enough to leave the second army of greedy wolves and lions to deal with. Fengxiao, you and Zilong and the others will return to Baiyun City with me. But before you leave, you spread the word according to Wenhe's Jianyì. ”

The matter of Nine Ghost Jialong, Guo Jia also heard Yang Tian briefly mention it just now, and Guo Jia also fully agreed with Jia Xu's method. Compared to dealing with the matter of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, the battle in this Wu County was indeed easier. Moreover, anyway, the reason for attacking Wu County is already there, and it is okay to attack at any time, and there is no hurry to do it on this day or two. And the matter of the Nine Ghosts Jialong is much stricter, and if it is not ruled out for a day, it is a huge hidden danger. (To be continued)
