Chapter 410: Layout Unfolds
"Withdraw! withdraw!"
The Western Frontier Army, which had reached the city wall, was once again repulsed, and the order from the rear was conveyed, and the dense Western Frontier Sergeant retreated like a tide.
"The Western Frontier Army really couldn't hold on, and after a fierce battle for most of the day, it was finally repulsed. ”
At the head of the city, all the commanders in charge of command and dispatch breathed a sigh of relief, and they only felt physically and mentally exhausted clenching the war knives in their hands.
Gu Xun let go of his somewhat sore arm, looked at Ye Xing, who was covered in blood on the side, and said.
The intensity of the offensive in this battle was several times stronger than before.
Therefore, more than two-thirds of the 3,000 soldiers who were responsible for the defense of the tower of Youyuan Gate were killed in the battle, and there were as many as 300 soldiers who were seriously injured, and the rest of the soldiers were all slightly injured.
And because of the tragedy of the battle, the defenders of Youyuanmen, from Ye Xing to ordinary soldiers, have all gone into battle, and even sent a total of 1,500 reserve soldiers from under the other three city gates to come to reinforcements.
It can be said that the reserve soldiers of the other three city gates have been emptied.
As for the damage of the Western Frontier Army, it was more than that of the Weishui Army, and the number of soldiers killed in battle was several times that of the Weishui Army.
After all, the Western Frontier Army existed as a besieging party, and although there were thousands of troops to support them, they were able to rush to the city in the face of dense giant crossbows and spirit cannons, so the damage must not be too small.
In addition, the Weishui army on the city wall counterattacked violently, so that the city wall changed hands many times, so the damage was even more serious at once.
Moreover, the Weishui Army is almost full of high strength, not to mention, the martial arts alone are also extraordinary, although it cannot be achieved with one enemy against hundreds, but it can almost be achieved with one enemy with five, or six enemies.
And the Western Frontier Army was okay when it had a numerical advantage, if it was not numerous, then the Western Frontier Army that attacked the city would no longer be the opponent of the Weishui Army.
"I'm afraid that the onslaught will continue in the afternoon, and this wall may not be able to hold it. Wang Li said with a complicated expression.
The combat power of the Western Frontier Army is so strong, which he did not expect, but after thinking about it, the Southern Frontier Army, which is also the army of the Imperial Dynasty, is so strong, so the Western Frontier Army will naturally not be weak.
As for the Weishui Army in Ye Xing's hands, in Wang Li's opinion, this is very incredible, it is a miracle.
After all, most of the Weishui army was still ordinary soldiers not long ago, and after arriving at Youyuan Fortress, the realm collectively leaped to reach the master realm.
If Gongzi had a large number of soldiers under his command at that time, I am afraid that it would not be long before the entire world could be leveled.
Merely...... At that time, he was already entangled by the Western Frontier Army, and he was still a soldier from other forces who explored the visions of heaven and earth.
And there are not many soldiers, lest the fierce offensive of the Western Frontier Army be not enough at all.
What's more, Ye Xing also sent a large number of soldiers out to go around, and at this time, I don't know where those soldiers have gone.
If only there was more time, it would be nice to be able to let Ye Xing recuperate, and recruit a large number of soldiers to be carefree from now on.
It's just a pity that now that it is surrounded by the army of the Western Frontier, there are not so many soldiers to recruit and use.
"Tell all the soldiers to go down and rest, and replace them with the soldiers who are on guard at night in advance. ”
Ye Xing wiped the blood from the blade, spit out softly, and stared directly at the close camp of the Western Frontier Army outside the city.
In the battle just now, the Western Frontier Army did not attack in batches, but directly pressed the whole army, so the Western Frontier Army is now exhausted.
In the competition for mental consumption, Ye Xing and they have already won, but in the competition for the consumption of the number of soldiers, Ye Xing and they have already lost.
However, in the afternoon, the Western Frontier Army will inevitably attack fiercely, and Ye Xing replaced the already tired soldiers at this time, and replaced it with an elite division that had not yet participated in the battle to deal with the next offensive of the Western Frontier Army.
Then the Weishui Army will definitely be much easier, and there will still be a chance to severely defeat the siege morale of the Western Frontier Army.
However, if the soldiers defending the city in the afternoon suffered too much loss in the morning, then it would be difficult for Ye Xing's current troops to hold this first city wall.
"I'll do it. Gu Xun nodded and understood Ye Xing's intentions, but he didn't care about resting, and hurriedly ran to dispatch the soldiers.
"Check the number of remaining bows and crossbows, and arrange the care of the wounded, and collect the corpses of the brothers who died in battle. ”
"Obey Childe's orders. ”
"Demolish the buildings of the first outer city, use them as a stone to supplement the defense of the city, take the beams and wood of the house, pour fire oil and other materials and pile them up at the battlements of the city wall. ”
"Obey Childe's orders. ”
"Li Mu, contact the various departments behind the outer circle, ask one by one whether they have arrived and occupy the designated position, and if so, order them to come out of the rear of the Western Army camp in the middle of the night. ”
"Li Mu, obey the order of the son. ”
"Qiu En, lead two nimble and clever soldiers to take advantage of the afternoon battle to get out of the city, go to the camp of the Western Frontier Army to contact Li You, and order him to defect when the battle starts in the middle of the night. ”
"Qiu En, obey the order of the son. ”
"Liang Shuo, like Qiu En, you put on the armor of the Western Frontier Sergeant, and lead a team of twenty people to the city in the evening during the battle.
After that, you lead your men to the dwellings of the various forces beyond the mist, contact the half of our hidden men among the various forces, and attack the other forces tonight.
Then let the remaining half of the men seize the opportunity to wait for the opportunity, and then give the retreating Western Army and the various forces the final blow. ”
"Liang Shuo, follow the order of the son, and must go all out to complete the son's instructions. ”
The group of people took their orders and left, or began to select men, or began to prepare weapons and armor.
There are still a lot of armor and clothing of the Western Frontier Army in the city at this time, and they can be pulled off the bodies of the Western Frontier soldiers who died in battle.
As for cleaning, it is not necessary, the more blood stains, the dirtier the armor and weapons, the better, which is more conducive to Qiu En, Liang Shuo and others to bring people to blend into the Western Army.
With the retreat of the Western Army, the Weishui Army also got a respite, and all the corpses of the soldiers on both sides in the city were collected equally.
A group of energetic Weishui soldiers took over the tired defenders who had been fighting for a long time, standing on top of the city tower, holding swords and spears, and looking out of the city with blazing eyes.
Looking at the surrounding areas being arranged in an orderly manner according to the plan, Ye Xing nodded secretly, the Weishui Army has been in an army for a short time, but its style of action at this time is no worse than that of the Western Territory Army.
This is tantamount to thanks to the intensive training and repeated training day after day, so that every newcomer to the Weishui Army can get sufficient growth and sufficient exercise.
Only then did the orders and prohibitions of the Weishui soldiers and soldiers be achieved, and the degree of daring to fight and kill.
Knock Knock Knock –
The drums of war thundered like thunder, and the blinding sunlight made people unable to open their eyes.
