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

Yuzhang County's intelligence and reconnaissance capabilities were so weak at this moment, since several surrounding cities fell into the hands of Baiyun City, Yuzhang Taishou had no way to judge where the Baiyun City army had marched. Although there are also many players in Nanchang City, in this case, these players who are naturalized in Yuzhang County are obviously not involved in this troubled water, anyway, they have already made up their minds, and as soon as the Baiyun City army breaks through Nanchang City, they will choose to surrender. So what they are doing against Baiyun City now, they don't want to do, which naturally includes providing intelligence for the defenders of Nanchang.

In fact, even if they wanted to provide information, they would be delayed for four hours without carrier pigeons, which is not very useful in the current form. And Yuzhang Taishou also sent flying cavalry to investigate, but before he could fly far, he was intercepted and killed by the Iron Eagle Warriors under Yang Tian's command.

However, even if Yuzhang Taishou couldn't know the exact movements of the Baiyun City army, he could guess a thing or two. Nearly twenty hours have passed since all these five cities were occupied yesterday evening, and these twenty hours are enough to teleport all the Baiyun City troops in Yuzhang County to these five cities. And the troops in the three cities closest to Nanchang City only needed nearly twenty hours to rush to Nanchang City. If the Baiyun City army doesn't sleep, it should be almost to Nanchang City by now.

Yu Zhang's guess was not bad at all, now the Baiyun City army is only about forty or fifty kilometers away from the nearest road to Nanchang City, and they can arrive in two hours at most. As for the farther one. It was from the two county towns of Haiyang and Juyang, but the number of troops on these two roads was not very large, after all, these two counties were indeed a little far away from Nanchang City. Except for some members of the Flame Dragon Legion and the White Tiger Legion, who had teleported from the beginning, the rest of the soldiers did not teleport from these two cities. Fortunately, they teleported earlier, not later than the armies of the other three cities, or at least not later than the armies that teleported from those three cities later. By the early hours of tomorrow morning at the latest, they will also be able to reach Nanchang City.

Yang Tian was naturally well aware of the movements of the various legions under his command, and when the army at the forefront was still ten kilometers away from Nanchang City, Yang Tian withdrew from Nanchang City.

The first army to arrive was not very large, only about 300,000 men. Not enough for one legion. Almost a third of each of the three major legions. In order to be able to rush to Nanchang City as much as possible, the army only gathered less than three hours of teleportation and set off, with these small city-level cities, more than 30,000 people can be transported at most every hour. So it's not surprising that there are only three hundred thousand figures.

Now the armies of the three cities have been gathered. Although the follow-up troops are still coming. But the siege can also begin.

The leader of this army was Hua Xiong of the Vermilion Bird Legion, and after Yang Tian joined him, he immediately led the army to two kilometers north of Nanchang City. Then some of the soldiers began to camp, and the other part began to prepare for the siege under the command of Hua Xiong.

……

Yuzhang County Taishou suddenly heard that Yang Tian had not continued to harass the city, and the teleportation array had been opened again, although he had some doubts in his heart, but he was more happy, because those elite troops in Wu County had finally begun to teleport to this side. He was even so excited that he went directly to the outside of the teleportation array and waited.

When the first person came out of the teleportation array, Taishou's face was full of excitement, because this person was the number one military general under his command, a military general whose strength had reached the peak of the king level. And along with this general, there were several other king-level generals, although their strength did not reach the peak of the king-level, but they were much stronger than others. On top of that, a steady stream of soldiers emerged from the teleportation array. In Taishou's view, these will be the main force guarding Nanchang City.

However, Yuzhang Taishou was not happy for too long, because he received news from the generals guarding the city wall that the army of Baiyun City had arrived outside the city! And preparations are already being made to begin the siege.

It was absolutely bad news that it made his expectations come to naught.

Sure enough, before he could give the corresponding order, the teleportation array in Nanchang City was closed again, and no one in it came out again.

Yu Zhang Taishou sighed, it seems that the idea of directly teleporting the elite army of Wu County back to Nanchang City is unrealistic. However, he still secretly said in his heart that he was lucky, fortunately it was those generals who were the first to teleport back just now, not ordinary soldiers, otherwise he would have really arrived home in tragedy.

"Immediately go up to the walls and organize defenses. Issued a war mobilization order to the whole process, and every citizen of the city must contribute to the war, and if anyone slackens, he will be punished as a crime of rebellion. Yuzhang Taishou gave the order very coldly.

The order was quickly delivered, and a large number of troops began to pour into the city walls, including the few remaining elite troops in the city of Nanchang. Of course, Taishou also left a mind, he knew that Yang Tian had the habit of directly attacking the city stele, so he left some elite troops to garrison the county guard, not seeking merit but seeking no fault.

Subsequently, Yuzhang Taishou personally came to the city wall, and at this time the Baiyun City army had begun to attack the city. The boulders thrown by the catapults fell scattered around the city walls, and the huge momentum was terrifying. With this Taishou's eyes, he could clearly distinguish that the other party's catapult was at least an intermediate catapult. Fortunately, there were not many powerful siege equipment, and Yuzhang Taishou did not feel too worried.

But when this Taishou looked at the other side of the battlefield, he almost made his eyes pop out, because it surprised him so much! Two huge catapults actually appeared beside Yang Tian out of thin air, and they had already been installed. Generally speaking, catapults are large and are usually transported in bundles and installed when they need to be used. But what Yang Tian got was actually a catapult that had been installed, which was definitely a very shocking thing, of course, Yuzhang Taishou also laughed at Yang Tian's approach, after all, even if he had space equipment, it was impossible to put the installed catapult in! In that case, even if the space in the space equipment is very huge, it will not be able to fit a few.

However, in the next period of time, Yang Tian's approach made this Taishou see what it means to be shocking, four catapults per minute! There was no pause in the middle, and it lasted for more than ten minutes, and Yang Tian still did not show any signs of pausing. Coupled with the catapults that had been placed by Yang Tian before, the number had exceeded one hundred. According to the calculation that each catapult needs to occupy a hundred cubic meters of space, the capacity of this space equipment owned by Sunshine has exceeded 10,000 cubic meters, what kind of treasure is this! The only thing that makes this Taishou a little puzzled is why the sun puts four units out every minute? Could it be that there are other limitations?

In fact, how did he know that the space inside Yang Tian's Xuanji Ring was more than 10,000 cubic meters? Now, even if all the catapults in the entire Z region are packed into the Xuanji ring, they can only occupy a corner of the space. It's just that the speed of retraction and retraction of this space is indeed very limited. For these catapults, the same weight of wood can now only be released four per minute.

Of course, now Yuzhang Taishou is not in the mood to pay attention to how good the storage equipment in Sunshine's hand is, but thinks about how many catapults are in the other party's storage equipment! If this is too much, I am afraid that it will be much more difficult to defend Nanchang City.

After about another twenty minutes, Yang Tian's movements finally stopped, that is, Yang Tian had placed a total of more than 300 medium-sized catapults outside the northern city wall of Yuzhang County. This may not be a lot, but Yuzhang Taishou feels depressed! Because in response to Chen Wen's order to attack Wu County, he transferred almost all the small number of catapults in his hand, so that the rest of Nanchang City is basically ballista, and the most important thing is that most of these ballistas are still arranged near the county guard's mansion, and Yuzhang Taishou has no intention of transferring these ballistae to the city wall. Therefore, although the other party only has 300 catapults, his own side can only be beaten, no matter how you look at it, it is an extremely disadvantaged thing.

The row of catapults under the city was thrown one by one, and it seemed that they had made up their minds to destroy the walls of Nanchang City completely with catapults.

If Yang Tianzhen plans to do so, it is estimated that this Yuzhang Taishou will rest assured, this Nanchang City is a heavy city, and he wants to destroy the city wall with only these more than 300 catapults? It's no different from dreaming, let alone these medium-sized catapults, not even large ones. I am afraid that in the end, all the 300 catapults will be damaged, and it will be difficult to cause substantial damage to the city wall.

However, it is obvious that Yang Tian will not be so stupid, the reason why he only uses catapults to attack now is just to let Nanchang City enter a state of war first, block the opponent's teleportation array, and at the same time delay time for his own side. If you want to officially start the siege of the city, with their little force, they are still a little less. When most of the soldiers were sent to attack the city, in case the Nanchang City army outflanked them from several other directions, they were likely to be attacked from the flank. And if all the 300,000 troops stayed in place, the defenders of Nanchang City would definitely not dare to act rashly. Therefore, only when the army in the rear arrives more, Yang Tian will let the army attack the city with all his might, and at that time, he will be able to play his role.

Although Yuzhang Taishou really wanted the Baiyun City army to use catapults to attack all the time, he was still very irritable when he was really attacked like this all the time. No matter who you are, you will be irritated if you are beaten all the time and can't fight back. What's more, there are occasionally a few unlucky eggs who are smashed into a pulp by the boulders that are thrown. So after staying at the head of the city for a while, he left straight away, but as he left, he did not forget to encourage the army defending the city. (To be continued)
