Beat!

At dawn the next day, the four legions of the Black Gold Group first opened the outer city gate and began to bombard the city gate, and two legions each went up to the two mountains of Longtou and Longwei to prepare to flank the Wolong City Corps that entered the urn city.

However, Yu Lihuang really stabilized this time, watching the Black Gold Group press down on the outer city and not moving, watching the outer city begin to collapse in the dense artillery fire and still not moving, letting the Black Gold Group lay down the outer city gate.

The outer city gate was breached in an hour, and then the four legions rushed to the city like tigers and wolves, and Yu Lihuang's steel legion waited in front of the gate of Wolong City, waiting for the other party to rush into the range of fire before firing.

Ding Sancheng attacked the outer city without being hindered and went straight into the urn city, and found that dozens of chariots of a legion were in front of the city, and immediately excitedly led the legions to pounce directly, and did not wait for the legions on the left and right mountains to find the fire support point and start the battle.

In the face of a legion, four to one, there is no need to exchange fire and consume from a long distance, Ding Sancheng roared angrily to destroy the steel legion in Urn City within an hour, and then attack Wolong City before noon.

Seeing the enemy advancing so lightly, Yu Lihuang sneered and shouted angrily: "Fire!" ”

Suddenly, the forts on the city wall formed a net of heaven and earth and bombarded the army corps that almost rushed to the face of the Iron Legion, one of the reasons why Zhang Zhen did not storm the city that day was that the defensive forts of Wolong City were too strong, and the forts could not be pulled out quickly except for destroying the city, and only the fortress could break through Wolong City at a very small cost.

Ding Sancheng didn't expect that the defensive forts of Wolong City had no losses, and even increased unabated, and the artillery fire in the sky made the four legions all fall into the bombardment, and for a while, the firelight lineup was chaotic, and they were all in a hurry to avoid the artillery fire, how could they still concentrate their firepower to attack the steel legion under the city, and the tiger wolf became a rat with a head.

The elders and ministers who were watching the battle on the mountain in the distance saw the four legions entering, and they were instantly scattered by the artillery fire of the defense city, and they were all stunned by the bosses.

"Ma, didn't the Four Seas Kingdom say that Wolong City was defending Zhang Zhen's attack and destroying and transferring all strategic equipment and materials, why are these forts still there?!"

"Damn, we were fooled, Wolong City surrendered without a fight at all, and gave a solid fortress to sheep for nothing!"

"Could it be that the Four Seas Kingdom is conspiring with sheep to calculate us?!" A minister exclaimed.

"It's unlikely, the four seas are just afraid that we won't come to attack Wolong City, if they conspire with sheep, why lure us to come and attack us directly." Of course, an elder knew that there was no collusion, but he had a strong connection with the Guardians.

"What should I do now, the inner city can't be hit on the left and right mountains, and it is difficult to hit the urn city with all the firepower, if Ding Sancheng doesn't retreat, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait for us to arrange fire support on the left and right."

"Don't care about Ding Sancheng, if he can withdraw, he will withdraw by himself, and hurry up to arrange the two-mountain position, we can't beat the main city of Wolong City under the high mountain, first block the left and right, and then find a way to break the city gate."

"Agreed, it's useless to support, let Ding Sancheng fight by himself."

Poor Ding Sancheng was worthless in the eyes of the Northern Expedition Management Committee, and his only value was to be a scapegoat.

And it did become a scapegoat, the four legions were not ready to attack the battery, and were scattered by the defensive artillery fire and barely evacuated outside the fire zone, but they were followed by the Iron Legion.

The four legions are still numerically advantageous, and there are almost two-thirds left after withdrawing, Ding Sancheng saw that the Iron Legion was catching up, and he was depressed by the beating, so he immediately angrily ordered the legions to turn back and fight the Iron Legion, and without the support of the city's artillery fire, he didn't believe that he couldn't defeat the Iron Legion.

Then, as soon as they turned around, the Iron Legion began to retreat, fighting and retreating.

Ding Sancheng was even hot-headed when he saw it, and led the legion to chase after the Iron Legion regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one.

As a result, there was a sudden bombardment of artillery fire, and only then did he find that his legion was covered by the artillery fire of the defense city, and he was shocked to retreat for a while, and he withdrew the steel legion and began to chase and fight again.

The four legions led by Ding Sancheng lost more than half of them, and it was impossible to turn back and fight, and they didn't call for reinforcements, so they had to continue to retreat in a hurry and flee outside the urn city.

The Iron Legion chased and fought in front of the outer city gate to collect troops, and the chariots that were directly destroyed and disabled in the urn city were scattered all over the place, and Ding Sancheng finally brought back only one and a half legions of remnants and fled back to the camp.

When he went back, he was scolded by everyone in the management council, scolding him for advancing lightly, scolding him for having no way to command, and the four legions fled in embarrassment and lost nearly three legions.

Although Ding Sancheng is also brutal and has a big temper, he doesn't dare to be angry in front of these people, even if he wants to pinch these people to death, and then drink blood and eat meat, he has to spare again and again.

"It's no wonder that Commander Ding lost this battle, the information given to us by the Four Seas Country is wrong, Wolong City is not a ruined city, remember this first, let Commander Ding make meritorious contributions."

"Go down, reflect on it, only when you capture Wolong City will you make a name for yourself."

Ding Sancheng hurriedly retreated gratefully, he knew that these people would not kill him, he would not die if the war was not over, he had to be a scapegoat all the time, these high-powered ministers were all so vicious, every time there was a war, they would monopolize power, and then appoint a commander who actually had no decision-making power, it was the commander's responsibility to lose, and it was theirs to win.

The matter of the scapegoat is done, and the people of the management council began to worry about how to fight Wolong City, it is obvious that the defensive ability of Wolong City has not been damaged at all, and it seems that it will not come out to fight with them, although there is a big advantage in the legions, but these legions cannot all pile up in front of the city gate to attack the city, but there is no second way to attack the city, and the siege has suddenly become a difficult task.

"There is always a price to besiege the city, if it was really easy, we would not have sent so many legions here, I don't believe that we can't take Wolong City with all our strength!"

"The Ministry of Intelligence monitors, the temperature is dropping faster and faster day by day, we must take Wolong City immediately!"

"First prepare for combat strength, arrange long-range firepower to hit the fort, and pull out the fort to fully attack the city."

"Let the Ministry of Intelligence urge the countries of the four seas to move troops, and we can't let the sheep open the fortress and come back, then we may be consumed in the cold night, which is very unfavorable for us to fight, and at the same time ask them why Wolong City is unharmed, leaving the sheep with a fortress in Tianqian City!"

Yu Lihuang looked at the situation outside the city from the highest watchtower in the city, and it was really a torment for him to defend the city to avoid the battle, but there were more than a dozen legions in front of him outside the city, and there were also those on the way, so it was really not a good strategy to go out of the city for a decisive battle.

He was also looking forward to the early arrival of the cold night, if the temperature could not be quickly lowered to enter the cold night, this Wolong City would not be able to hold on for too long, although it was strong.

He also admired Zhang Zhen's resourcefulness and courage even more, this battle can only be won, if he loses, he will have nothing, and he pressed everything he had, including his life.

Zhang Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting the news that Yu Lihuang was sticking to the city, now he was afraid that Yu Lihuang would lose his temper and not be sure that the city would shrink and go out to fight, so Wolong City would definitely not be able to hold on for five days, as long as Yu Lihuang could endure it, it would not be a problem to defend it for ten days, and the fortress was still unmoving, he estimated that he would have to wait at least ten days, but he did not dare to return to reality at this time.
