Chapter 470

In the past few days, the news that the Wing Army has cursed and the Night Army does not dare to go to war has spread, and under the encouragement of the Wing Army's personnel, some forces in the Snow Country have accepted the proposal of their original royal family members to prepare to unite the Wing Army to attack the Night Army, and die under the Night Saber in battle

of the people of the Snow Country take revenge, but at the moment those people still have an attitude of looking at the situation.

If the Wings can defeat the Night, they will block the Night's retreat from the rear so that they can encircle and annihilate all the Night. If the Winged Army can't break through the Windy City, they will only choose to stay put. Afraid of the military might of the Night Army, these people in the Snow Country did not dare to act rashly. However, for the Winged Army, they already have the support of the Snow Country.

As long as the people of Snow Country don't help the Night Army, and don't be an obstacle to their way to conquer the Night Army. Ruan Qiling and a group of generals knew the benefits promised to the Wing Country by the Qingyuan Powers, as long as they could defeat the Night Army, the territory of the Snow Country could be included in the territory of the Wing Country, so the Wing Army's statement when they won over the Snow Kingdom Royal Family was very different from their real purpose, but the Snow Country Royal Family did not know.

The attitude of the local forces in Snow Country is an invisible pressure on the Night Army, and whether or not they can solve these problems depends on whether they win the battle tomorrow or not.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already night, Zhao Xu ordered all the generals to gather all the soldiers together, announced the news that the Wing Army was about to attack the city, and asked all his soldiers to rest and prepare for battle. Zhao Xu said that the time of the war was tomorrow, but there was no guarantee that the Wing Army would attack the city tonight, so Zhao Xu asked the soldiers to be vigilant at all times.

Zhao Xu's words made the soldiers above realize that the Wing Army was really coming, and when they thought of them, they would be able to kill the Wing Army happily, and they were extremely emotional. After enduring the insults of the Wing Army for several days, the Night Army only hoped to start a war with the Wing Army.

When Zhao Xu finished talking to the generals, the morale of the generals of the three armies was high and they were too excited, so Zhao Xu and the generals said some more morale-boosting words to appease the soldiers. In this way, the military atmosphere of the Night Army gradually returned to the right track.

Standing in the queue, Lin Xuanzhong obviously felt that the morale of the army had improved, and the characteristics of soldiers became more and more obvious. No matter what Lin Xuanzhong's mood was at the moment, it was obvious that after encouraging the morale of the army above, the spirit of the night army was getting better and better.

When the procession ended, Lin Xuanzhong went back to rest with the others. The night was not as calm as it seemed, and because of the excitement, many of the night soldiers did not rush to rest after returning home, but gathered in twos and threes to discuss how they were going to defeat the Wing Army.

The atmosphere before the war became more and more intense, and now the situation in the army made Lin Xuanzhong feel as if he had returned to a month ago, when they were ambushed behind the mountain and were about to attack the Snow Army, the soldiers were murderous one by one, and their morale was high.

It stands to reason that the strong pre-war atmosphere was tense, which naturally affected the rest of the soldiers, but surprisingly, the more this was the case, the better the night army rested.

After learning the news that the Wing Army was about to attack the city, the Night Army, which had been suppressed for a few days, breathed a sigh of relief, and it was easy to relax.

There was nothing to do all night, and early in the morning of the first day, it was just dawn, and the horn was already sounding in the night army camp. Prior to this, spies outside the city sent back news that the Wing Army was full of smoke in the camp during the fifth watch. The Wings ate earlier than usual, and if nothing else, it was a signal that the Wings were about to fight.

After receiving the news, Zhao Xu ordered all the generals to call out the soldiers, and the night army was also preparing to eat.

When the news of the assembly came, all the soldiers who had been shouted early realized that the enemy was coming. After the instructions for the meal reserve battle were delivered, the night troops were waiting for the generals above to give them orders.

The flags of the night army fluttered on the tower, and the long walls on both sides of the tower were already full of soldiers. Archers and ballistae stood crossed, and a total of more than a dozen ballistae were specially used to deal with the siege equipment of the winged army, as well as the siege beasts. The ballistaemen were all selected from the arrow camp, and they were all tall and powerful.

The long walls were lined with thousands of archers, as well as thousands of men who were responsible for moving stones and rolling logs to stop the winged army from climbing the city. The walls of the Winless City are two or three meters higher than the normal walls, which makes shooting arrows from below and upwards even less effective, so if you shoot from both sides, it must be that the Night Army has a huge advantage.

At this moment, the Wing Army was about to arrive in the Winless City, and the formation of the 280,000 army was unimaginable. There were also hundreds of siege beasts in the long line. Those beasts are specially trained to help not only the army in the siege of the city, but also the army in the attack of people.

There are dozens of siege vehicles in front and back, and as long as there is a certain amount of time for such a large siege vehicle, the wing army can effectively strike at the city wall and the army on the city.

The winged army was immense, and they approached all the way to the windless city. The soldiers approached the city, and Zhao Xu and the general in the city looked at the Yiguo army under the city with a solemn expression.

Nearly 300,000 people, still in the daytime, the formation of the wing army could not be seen, giving them a feeling that was far more shocking than when they were guarding Huangyan Pass, when they were guarding Huangyan Pass, the formation of more than 100,000 troops in the Snow Country.

Condescendingly, after seeing the lineup of the Wing Army, the generals who were originally the main battle realized how wrong they had made in persuading Zhao Xu to go to war, if they faced off with the Wing Army, after the disparity in strength, even if the Night Army could achieve subsequent victories, there would be a large number of casualties.

Fortunately, Zhao Xu persuaded them, and now that the night army's strength is still there, they still have a strong city wall to rely on.

When the night generals were surprised by the strength of the wing army, in the middle of the army formation under the city, on the chariot, Ruan Qiling was sitting in a precarious position, and his momentum was extremely majestic. On both sides of the chariot, generals rode high-headed horses, and their momentum was boundless. The winged army was divided into several parts, with the infantry standing in the front, the archers, the shield soldiers, and the cavalry behind the shield soldiers.

The winged cavalry was in the rear, naturally because in siege warfare, cavalry was difficult to play at first.

On the other side, the cavalry of the night army was all behind the city gate, just like when Zhao Wu guarded Huangyan Pass, and many of the soldiers guarding behind the city gate had experienced the battle of Huangyan Pass before, and they were all too familiar with the current scene. The only difference is that the leading general is less Zhao Xu, and now Zhao Xu has become the pride of the cavalry soldiers and a majestic general. Not only led their cavalry battalion, but also led the entire army, and many cavalrymen already regarded Zhao Xu as their role model.

Distributed on both sides of the cavalry, tens of thousands of archers and infantry were on standby. After the war began, they had to continue to rush to the aid of the night army in the city. In front of the archers and infantry, the night generals looked solemn, waiting for the war drums to sound. They had been waiting for a long time for the battle to defend the city, but when it really started, the generals were still a little nervous.

In the city, Zhao Xu and some generals who did not fight or did not need to fight for the time being looked at the lineup of the wing army below. There are many differences from the previous lineup of the Snow Army, and now what attracts attention is the hundreds of fierce beasts in front of the Wing Army, all of which are good at climbing fierce beasts without exception, and it doesn't seem to be used for siege gates. In addition, there are too many fierce beasts, and it is not difficult for Zhao Xu and some generals to guess that the wing army wants to use fierce beasts to climb the city and attack the soldiers in the city.

The idea of the Wing Army attacking the city with fierce beasts was somewhat new, and many Night Army generals were surprised.

"General, what is the intention of the Wing Army to bring so many fierce beasts here? Could it be that they really want to use those fierce beasts to attack the city. ”

"Yes, can those beasts climb the city walls?" the two generals expressed their doubts one after the other.

"Haven't you two seen the fierce beast attacking the city?" As a result, before Zhao Xu could speak, a general who was previously in charge of guarding the border pass asked the two of them first.

"Not really," one of them shook his head awkwardly.

"Then it's not surprising," the general who asked the question explained with a smile: "In the past, when guarding the border pass to resist the tide of beasts, Ben General had seen many fierce beasts that were good at climbing jumping onto the city with the bodies of other fierce beasts, causing a lot of trouble to the defenders of the city. However, because the beasts will not attack the city gates, our army can still successfully block the beast tide. ”

"Oh, it's amazing how surprising these beasts are," the general, who didn't understand what was going on, nodded after listening to his colleague's explanation.

"Will it bother us a lot if the Wing Army only brought more than a hundred fierce beasts?"

"Probably not, the walls of Windless City are taller than those of ours, and it will be difficult for those fierce beasts to even climb onto the city walls if they don't have anything to step on," the general who spoke was not too sure, not that he was not sure that the beasts could climb with him, but that he was still wondering about the plans of the Wing Army.

"What does the general think, should I guard against these fierce beasts," In the absence of a real solution to this problem, a general naturally asked Zhao Xu's opinion.

In the past, Zhao Xu was the general stationed at the border pass, so he was naturally no stranger to the siege of the city. And when a few people were talking, Zhao Xu had also been thinking about the intentions of the wing army. In Zhao Xu's opinion, it is impossible for the Wing Army to bring these fierce beasts over for viewing and deterring the Night Army, and it is impossible for these fierce beasts to attack alone, so the only explanation is that the commander of the Wing Army wants to use the fierce beasts and their soldiers to cooperate to improve their siege effect, so the fierce beasts alone are not terrible, the key is to be afraid of the cooperation of the two.

"General Zhang, arrange some more powerful sixth-order martial cultivators in the city, and quickly kill these fierce beasts when the fierce beasts climb the city, so as not to affect the layout of the city and disturb the hearts of our army," After coming back to his senses, Zhao Xu immediately explained the coping method he thought of.

"Yes," General Zhang in Zhao Xu's mouth was Zhang Daring, and with a promise, Zhang Daring turned around and left directly.

"General Zhang is slow. ”

"What's the matter with the Great General?"

"Transfer out all the top 300 personnel who participated in the big competition last time, and the speed should be fast," suddenly thinking that this was a good opportunity to temper Zhang Jiutian and others, Zhao Xu immediately called out to Zhang Daring, and after speaking, he asked several generals to come over to assist.
