Chapter 336: Three-sided spies, four-sided siege
But no one responded, "Xiao Zhan, you are guilty!" When she shouted again, there was still no movement.
Xia Duoduo glanced around, and didn't find Xiao Zhan's shadow, so he stroked his hair with his hand and responded softly, "Maybe it should be running~." ”
"Ran away?!" Tianjing glanced at the crowd suspiciously, and sure enough, as Xia Duoduo said, Xiao Zhan, who had been released from the Ice Country and swore to follow him, didn't know when, and slipped away quietly.
"This bastard!! Wait until I catch him, not to punish him! Tianjing's face was extremely ugly, and she scolded angrily. Then she continued to read the secret letter in her hand.
As time passed, her face became unusually ugly.
She exhaled breathlessly, and scolded loudly, "These rebels and thieves! Harm me to the apocalypse for hundreds of years! Sin is not punishable! ”
Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at her and glanced at her, but did not speak.
"Apocalypse, rebellious ministers and thieves get in the way! The people have no means of making a living! The Tiger misleads the country and the people! Today, I swear by Tianjing: form a crusade army! It is bound to overthrow the Tigers! ”
Where is Tianjing said impassionedly and loudly, her face was purple, and she looked really angry.
Xia Duoduo guessed that the secret letter must have listed Xiao Zhan's many crimes, so Xiao Zhan had to flee from here the moment he came into contact with the Salvation Army.
In fact, Tianyue's letter was written by the prime minister, because considering the importance of the matter, it was covered with equation magic. The opening condition must be that the Royal Blood and the Royal Token can be used at the same time.
The soldier who gave Tianyue the necklace before he died was the prime minister's butler. And that necklace is a tiger talisman for mobilizing troops that the old king gave to the prime minister for safekeeping.
Perhaps at that moment, the old king had already sensed the strangeness of the Celestial Tiger. and pressed the future of the apocalypse on the talented and suffering Tianjing.
As for the letter, it recorded the amount of embezzlement of various officials, as well as the evidence of Tianhu's betrayal of the country. In the top ten positions, Xiao Zhan is impressively listed.
The amount of corruption of the top three corrupt officials can fully be worth the tax revenue of the apocalypse for a year, the top five are rich and rival the country, and the top ten have intricate ties.
The entire court has completely become a place to hide filth and filth, and the people are starving and hungry!
In that case, it might as well be completely crushed!
"Yes! Your Highness the Princess! The Apocalypse Salvation Army is willing to go to the soup for His Highness! The cavalrymen who were rescued by Jiang Xiaoyu jumped off their horses, beat their chests with their right fists, knelt on one knee, and roared loudly.
Tianyue knelt on one knee and raised the command knife with both hands, and sent it to Tianjing, muttering "woo woo" in her mouth, seeing that she wanted Tianjing to take over the command.
"Excellent! Today I take over as the commander-in-chief of the Apocalypse Salvation Army! Command all walks of life to besiege Tianyi City! Tianjing took the command knife and shouted in high spirits.
"Chief Pioneer Officer Tianyue! As the second princess of the Apocalypse royal family, the ninth heir to the throne, and the commander of the Apocalypse, I order you to recruit your subordinates along the way! Prepare to conquer the northern camp of the Apocalypse - Tianyi City! ”
"Woo~" Tianyue hammered his chest hard, stood up loudly, and walked quickly towards the group of cavalry, deliberately leaving a team of people to protect Tianjing and pass on information.
He led the rest of the group to run towards the distant col, bury the corpses, and then go to the outside of the city to recruit soldiers.
"The siege is imminent, do you still have any people, little brother?" Tianjing turned her head to Dao Ke and asked playfully.
"Well, most of them are on the other side of Tianjing Lake, and I'm afraid this situation won't come by now. I have less than a thousand soldiers left behind in the land of the Apocalypse and the Land of Ice, the Land of Snow! Doke touched his chin, his eyes showing helplessness, when he saw the smile on Tianjing's face that gradually solidified. Touching his chin, he smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Don't panic, husband! Our family has more than 3,000 soldiers! A voice came from behind Doke, and said shallowly.
"Oh, what Miss Wen said is true?" A happy look appeared on Doke's face, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Naturally, I don't dare to hide it from my husband, in addition to your 1,000 subordinates, I also brought more than 2,000 women's troops in the Ice Country! Although they are not as good as men in killing and fighting, fortunately, they are all well-trained archers, and they can all pass through Yang in a hundred steps! Vinland covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled softly, her voice as gentle as a lark.
"Jing'er! We have 3,000 soldiers! Countless smiles appeared on Daoke's face, and he said as he danced towards Tianjing's eyebrows.
"Humph! Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, you really think you are a fish farmer! Tianjing glanced at Dao Ke and muttered dissatisfiedly, but then said with a cold face, "Since you have powerful archers, and you boast that you can penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, you will suppress them when you attack Tianyi City!" The task is daunting and must be completed! ”
Doke blinked hurriedly, waved his hand and protested, "Tianyi City is ten feet high!" Male archers can hardly attack them, let alone female Jiao'e! ”
"Oh? That's what you mean to help me? Without their absolute suppression, the siege troops would not be able to move an inch! And who said that you should stand on the ground and shoot arrows into the sky?! With a sneer on her face, Tianjing glanced at Doke and said sarcastically.
"Don't let them be on the ground? That's to stand on a high place! Condescending attack! Douc suddenly shouted.
"Look at your little bit of talent!" Tianjing sneered, stretched out her arm and pushed away Dao Ke's head, and by the way, stretched out her finger and flicked it a few times.
Wen Lan, who was in the distance, pursed her lips and looked at the two laughing people, and turned her gaze away. There is a bit of loneliness in the depths of his eyes.
"So what are you waiting for? Don't go yet! Tianjing was stunned for a moment, and when she saw that Dao Ke hadn't moved yet, she couldn't help but roar angrily.
"Now it's not a matter of attacking the city." Doke glanced at Tianjing and disagreed. I wasn't ready to leave, as if I had settled on Tianjing.
"Humph! Pigs! Tianjing glared angrily and stretched out her hand to twist his ear, but she didn't hold it, and couldn't help but scold angrily.
When she saw Xia Duoduo smiling at her, she shrugged her shoulders and walked over with a smile. One hand grabbed Xia Duoduo's arm and shook it.
"My sister is going to help me this time! Only by capturing Tianyi City can we use it as a base and condescendingly attack the royal capital Companion City Heavenly Providence City. ”
"As you said, Tianyi City is ten feet high, and we must have siege engines and arrow carts to suppress them. Now that resources are scarce, what do we use to make this equipment. And there were two thousand female archers, and such equipment for mass use was basically impossible to build. ”
Xia Duoduo pondered the details with rigor on his face, and muttered in a low voice.
"That's right! The elevated equipment of two thousand archers! Tianjing patted her head lightly, and suddenly realized, and the uneasiness in her heart just now was completely exposed.
"There's nothing we can do about this, the existing materials are far from enough! For the archers to work, they have to think differently! ”
Xia Duoduo touched his somewhat cold nose and said to the silhouette of the huge castle at the end of the horizon in front of him.
"Is it really impossible to conquer this fortress?" Tianjing frowned and stared into the distance, muttering in a low voice.
She knew that no archers would gain air supremacy to cover the siege of the city. With the high pool and depth of Tianyi City, as well as the emptiness of the surrounding ice and snow, I am afraid that it will fall into a tug-of-war in an instant, with heavy casualties.
If the enemy army supports from Providence City and flanks from the front and rear, the Salvation Army will probably be completely annihilated.
The scene calmed down, only the shadows in the sunlight moved slowly on the earth, and everyone was thinking about how to break through Tianyi City.
The wind gradually blew, and the melting snow and ice formed a hurricane storm in mid-air, lapping against the rocks on both sides.
"Wait until evening, and a few of us will take over the walls with the help of hook locks." Jiang Xiaoyu crossed his hands on his hips and said after a moment of silence.
"I don't agree, let's not talk about whether the assault team can hold the city wall defense. It will take at least three minutes to open the city gate and then the first wave of support, and in this time, you will face a frantic counterattack from the enemy. Individual forces are almost useless in Clan Wars. Xia Duoduo shook his head and rejected the proposal.
As if thinking of something, she continued, "In our first battle, we must reduce casualties as much as possible and make a name for ourselves!" Destroy Tianyi City like a withering and decaying city, and win the hearts of the people! ”
"Uh-huh, is there anything else." Tianjing shook Xia Duoduo's hand like a little fan girl and asked her to explain it to herself.
Although Tianjing is gifted and avant-garde, she far surpasses her peers. However, he was trapped in Nicanado and had limited vision. Compared with the ancient civilizations of the Earth Age
In comparison, the Snowy Kingdom is a younger brother.
What Xia Duoduo explained made Tianjingmao pause, as if she had heard something mysterious and exciting in her heart.
At this time, Tianyue's scout had already taken back the Tianyi City defense map. Xia Duoduo carefully stared at the fur carved with strips of markings, and said in a deep voice.
"It's not realistic to build siege towers now, and there are no hills around to climb. In order to guarantee absolute air supremacy, female archers must be dispatched to completely suppress the enemy's crossbows! I already have a rough idea of this, and I can build it. In addition, there will be siege squads to smash the city gates head-on! ”
Xia Duoduo bent down, wiped a handful on the ground with his fingers, and put it to the tip of his nose to sniff.
"If Tianyi City were built with local materials, the ice in the permafrost would melt and the walls would swell and become soft because of the current temperature. The outer layer is a boulder, and the mud inside will be squeezed out of the boulder by gravity. In order to avoid collapse, the walls of Tianyi City must be very thick. ”
But that's why the city gate has become the key to the contention between the two sides! The defenders will inevitably reduce all their ground forces to the front line of the city gates. Holes will appear in the entire line of defense. We can send assault teams to climb the walls, create chaos in weak areas, and distract from the sight and video. ”
"Isn't that the case a tug-of-war? The longer it takes, the worse it is for us. Tianjing raised her head, her eyes flashing wide. It seems that he understands or not, and he speaks out loud the doubts in his heart.
"Yes!" Xia Duoduo stretched out his arm and touched Tianjing's head caressingly, "But our goal is not this, our goal is to wait for work and attack the reinforcements coming from Providence City!" For Tianyi City, destroy their anti-aircraft bows and crossbows, and our archers will completely suppress them. ”
The "Hailan House" glanced at each other and understood that Xia Duoduo was going to adopt the plan of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" and "encircling the point to send reinforcements". For the immature Apocalypse army, this is the most effective strategy to make the most visual advance, and to suffer the least casualties.
Feasible!
"Little X, the plan you said allows the archers to quickly form combat effectiveness while ignoring the height is a 'trampoline'?" Murong Yue put her hands behind her back, followed, looked at the proportions of the city wall, and said thoughtfully.
"That's right! But this is a simple version of the 'bouncing trampoline'. Xia Duoduo silently admitted with a smile on his face.
She remembered the time when she and Qin Hao played trampoline in the botanical garden in Yuhang County. His face gradually softened, but when he thought that Qin Hao was seriously injured and left him, he felt a little depressed in his heart.
"Oh!" Murong Yue's eyes flashed with light, and she comprehended, and pulled the fort aside, relying on the impression of going to Yuhang County that year, she drew the huge "Qiantang River Bounce Trampoline." ”
"Hmmm! Feasible! The turret nodded at the trampoline with several giant brackets, and quickly designed an improved version in his mind.
After a few moments, he drew a picture. There were three brackets buried deep in the ground, and a rope hung down. There is also a small spring in the ground position to provide a bouncing buffer.
In order to increase efficiency, he deliberately added a mechanical pulley guide. Countless brackets are pushed open like a fence and can accommodate 68 female archers to shoot at once.
After the assault squad destroyed the anti-aircraft crossbow arrows on the city walls, it was enough to completely suppress them.
As for the materials used to make the brackets, they were provided by the Dreadnought.
When Doke heard that the "Dreadnought" was going to be dismantled, his face changed slightly, and it was difficult to hide the reluctance in his heart. However, under the intimidation of Tianjing's righteous words, he could only give up.
Just when Tianjing and Jiang Xiaoyu wondered in their hearts, it would take two days to build a trampoline, and it had already turned into night to see if it was still effective.
Two miles away from Tianyi City, a row of brackets has been erected.
The Apocalypse Salvation Army led by Tianyue also gathered one after another, with more than 3,000 people.
Douc and Vinland's men have also arrived. Bustling, the first archers are being tested.
This made the defenders of Tianyi City nervous, and countless bonfires were lit on the city walls, and teams of soldiers patrolled back and forth. The defensive bows and crossbows on the head of the city were already filled with arrows.
Xia Duoduo took over the wartime command and waved the command knife in his hand towards Tianyi City in front of him.
"The assault team is attacking!"
