Chapter 668: Flying to the city

"Quickly change to fire feathers," At the same time, Zhao Xu also saw the situation below, no matter what was tied to those ladders, but Zhao Xu saw very clearly, with an ordinary bow and arrow, it was impossible to shoot through those things. Shocked, Zhao Xu immediately thought of switching to a fire attack.

"Yes," he agreed, and the two heralds next to him shouted to both sides while waving the flag, "Fire attack." ”

Immediately afterwards, the archers on both sides of the tower received instructions to quickly switch to another type of arrow tied to the cotton wool to shoot. In the blink of an eye, a stream of fire fell from the sky. The sound of the arrows hitting the baffle was still the same, but the splashes of fire oil affected many people.

After two consecutive rounds of fire from the night army, the surprising thing was that the enemy troops in the front carrying the ladder were already less than fifty meters away from the city wall, and it seemed that because of the baffle, the effect of the fire attack was also not great, only a few hundred of the tens of thousands of flying troops who rushed over in the first round were affected, and after the last round of attacks, there was no need for the archers in the city to stay.

"Withdraw," Seeing the enemy army rushing to the city quickly, although the use of bows and arrows to block the attack has not yet played a substantial role, but at this moment Zhao Xu has had to order some of the archers to withdraw, and next, the infantry defense should be the mainstay.

What is surprising is that some of the archers of the flying army were originally hiding under the ladder, and at this moment, they were dozens of meters away from the city wall one after another from the bottom of the ladder, and before the flying soldiers officially entered the city, they had already raised their bows and arrows to shoot at the night army in the city.

The archers above were about to withdraw, and some of the infantry also walked to the vacant positions with their items, although the handover was orderly, it was still a little chaotic, so that they were directly caught off guard by the flying army.

"Ah......" Under the accurate shooting of the flying army, one by one the unsuspecting night soldiers fell one after another, and the sudden shooting of the flying army caused direct chaos in the city.

"Quickly retreat," the general above reacted immediately when he saw that the situation was not right, and gave instructions to the archers who were about to withdraw. At the same time, some of the remaining archers also began to fire back at the flying army, but the flying army was scattered, and many of them were already shot by the random arrows flying from below the city before they could find their targets.

"Lie down," I didn't expect the flying army's shooting to be so accurate, and the generals on both sides of the tower saw that the situation was not right, so they could only order their own archers to dodge again. Next, they can only defend normally until the enemy's stormtroopers arrive in the city and the enemy archers stop attacking.

After the stormtroopers of the flying army successfully ran to the city, tens of thousands of archers in the rear of the flying army divided into more than a dozen square formations under the instructions of their commander, and marched neatly until they joined the archers who were mixed in the foot.

"The enemy archers have withdrawn, so you can put on a good show," the general who commanded the battle of the flying army was also the commander of the arrow battalion, standing in front of tens of thousands of archers at the moment, and this person gave instructions to those archers at the first time.

From the departure of the flying army to the rush to the city, it can be said that there was only a blink of an eye, and while Shi Jiangchuan was greatly surprised, he also saw that Tie Xin was more strategic than he expected. The archers hidden under the ladder can be regarded as a miracle trick, directly causing a lot of chaos to the night army in the city, and not only that, but also allowing the charging soldiers in front to rush to the city smoothly. Seeing that the flying army was about to land in the city, Shi Jiangchuan was more and more surprised the more he thought about it.

"Thanks to the three hundred flying cloud ladders borrowed by Marshal Shi, the soldiers of this marshal were able to rush to the city with such a small damage," Seeing the surprise on Shi Jiangchuan's face, Tie Xin smiled secretly and then said with a serious face: "Marshal Shi, don't worry, the rest will be handed over to the flying army." ”

"I have long heard that your flying country is good at riding and shooting, and today I want to see how powerful the archers of your flying army are," Shi Jiangchuan smiled with a smile, and his eyes returned to the flying army in front.

"Marshal Shi, don't worry, this marshal will not let you down today," Tie Xin nodded, not minding Shi Jiangchuan's profound tone at all.

"Marshal, the enemy army has rushed to the city, please go to the main hall to rest for a while," At the same time, at the city tower, seeing that the enemy troops below had set up the ladder on the city one after another, Yan Nantian immediately reminded Zhao Xu.

"Okay, the responsibility for defending the city is entrusted to you, remember to report the situation at any time," Zhao Xu nodded, as the commander of the three armies, it is indeed not suitable to stand in the center of the battlefield at this moment. After Zhao Xu left with a few generals, Yan Nantian was naturally responsible for the next command of the operation.

The enemy army attacked the city so quickly, not giving his own archers a chance to attack, and a series of unexpected behaviors made Yan Nantian realize that the soldiers of his own infantry battalion would become the main force in the next battle. Regardless of the combat strength of the Flying Nation soldiers, Yan Nantian was still very confident in blocking the enemy's attack.

After a period of adjustment, the situation on both sides of the city tower has returned to stability, and Yan Nantian has also noticed that the enemy troops in charge of the charge are all lightly armed, and the speed of climbing the city must not be slow. Since this is the case, it is not difficult for Yan Nantian to think that the night army in the city must move faster in order to use the materials to defend the city to block the enemy army from climbing the city.

The enemy archers had stopped firing, and the defenders on both sides had begun to move under the command of some of their own generals, and stones were constantly being thrown from the city by the night army, smashing the ladders that were about to be erected. For a while, the sound of various wood breaking under the city came and went, mixed with the screams of the flying army.

The only way for the lightly armed Flying Army to dodge the stone attack from above is to force it to break the stone, which will only make the rubble affect more people.

Under the strong counterattack of the night army, the originally high-spirited flying army encountered a strong resistance, and the casualties continued to increase.

On the other side, as the defending side of the city, the night army worked very hard to prevent the enemy troops below from rushing up, and kept throwing stones and logs down. At the same time, a soldier with a spear was guarded at each battlement to prevent anyone from coming up unexpectedly. Seeing that the night army can finally stabilize the situation, who would have thought that there was movement on the side of the enemy archers under the city.

......A black cloud flew up from below, flying higher and higher, and finally flew down in an arc to the location of the night army in the city.

"Ah......" Some of the night soldiers who were busy carrying stones or throwing away stones were shot by falling arrows one after another, and under a series of screams, those night soldiers fell one after another, and the number of night soldiers in the city quickly decreased.

The flying army lost nearly one-third of the city's night army in just one round of shooting, and Yan Nantian was dumbfounded by the terrifying effect of such a terrifying attack. It's just that the attack of the flying army is obviously not over yet, and soon another black cloud falls. Because of the situation just now, the night army in the city has stopped its original movements, and now they are all careful not to be shot by random arrows.

Unfortunately, after the second round of firing of the flying army, many night soldiers fell, and then the archers who did not wait for the flying army launched the third round of shooting, and the defenders of the city received the order from above, and the remaining half of the more than half of them all hurried to hide behind the city wall to prevent being fired by the enemy again.

At the city tower, Yan Nantian was shocked, and he couldn't understand why the enemy's bow and arrow attacks were so accurate. If you allow the enemy to shoot again, I am afraid that your own losses will be immeasurable.

"Quickly send an order for the people below to be ready for reinforcements at any time," While considering how to avoid being attacked by the flying archers, Yan Nantian still hurriedly issued an urgent military order.

In the blink of an eye, the suppression of the Fei Army's bow and arrow made the defenders in the city lose their ability to defend themselves, and the sharp arrows that shot into the corpse of the night army or inserted into the ground all made Yan Nantian feel the horror of the enemy archers. As soon as that urgent military order was delivered, the next time, countless flying troops had already ascended from the city to the city.

After one flew to avoid the night army's panicked attack, as soon as he turned around, those flying soldiers attacked the night army hiding behind the city with their weapons. For a while, the night army had no ability to resist.

After the two sides really fought......, the morale of the night army had been greatly suppressed by the flying army, and they had to deal with the enemy troops that constantly appeared.

Especially when some of the night soldiers were about to get up to meet them in a hurry, the flying army that rushed up from the side of the city wall behind them attacked them directly from behind, catching them off guard, and the casualties of the night army increased rapidly. The two armies had just fought head-on, and the situation had completely shifted to the side of the flying army.

In the case that the reinforcements could not arrive in time, the situation faced by the night army became worse and worse, and soon the enemy troops in the city exceeded their own, and the rapid change in the number made the situation become like the flying army defending the city.

"General Lin, General Yan ordered you to quickly lead your troops to the city to defend against the enemy army," not long after, a herald conveyed Yan Nantian's order to Lin Xuanzhong.

is still the commander of the second team, after receiving the order, Lin Xuanzhong was extremely surprised. It wasn't long before the two sides beat the drums of war, and Lin Xuanzhong couldn't imagine that the enemy could attack the city in such a short period of time. If this was the case, the enemy's offensive was already fierce beyond Lin Xuanzhong's previous understanding.

When Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about Yan Nantian's intention of letting himself lead the troops so quickly, the herald saw that Lin Xuanzhong was unmoved, and continued: "General Lin, the military situation is urgent, and I hope you will move quickly." ”

"Yes," was awakened by the other party's voice, and agreed, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't think about it anymore, and immediately conveyed the military order. What is surprising is that after Lin Xuanzhong assigned the support work as yesterday, when the soldiers were about to leave, a black cloud fell from the front, and after seeing clearly that it was the arrow shot by the enemy, everyone realized that the enemy was attacking the city, so as to block their follow-up reinforcements.
