Chapter 359: Ace Restraint

Next, he began to launch an offensive against Black Cloud City in a step-by-step manner. The main force of resistance in Black Cloud City was the 70,000-strong Tempest Warrior Army led by Lin Yi. In addition, the troops withdrawn from Mingyang Fort were used as auxiliary forces, including thousands of border guards, about 20,000 Qilin Tiger troops, and nearly 10,000 Flying Tiger 2 troops, so that there were a total of 100,000 troops in the city.

Black Cloud City is the last bastion.

Its fortifications were built earlier, the walls were designed to be taller and stronger, and the moat was wider, in short, compared to the defense line of Mingyang Fort, Black Cloud City was more easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Since the end of the last war, a large number of craftsmen and designers have been working day and night for the defense of the city.

Its defense design scheme has also been changed again and again, and it has been refined. Until the arrival of the Eastern Saint Kingdom's army, much of the construction work here was still unfinished.

In the afternoon of the same day, the army of the Eastern Holy Kingdom launched two small-scale tentative attacks, respectively at the South Gate and the West Gate. After dinner, the main force of the Eastern Saint Army launched a very fierce attack on the north gate and the west gate at the same time.

At the pre-war mobilization, Huangfu Song told the soldiers that this was the last fortress, and that they could start slaughtering the city as soon as possible, and allowed the soldiers to storm the palace and plunder the women and treasures.

At the same time, he also said: After many days of fierce fighting, the combat effectiveness and morale of the Black Cloud City Army have dropped significantly, and the opportunity to conquer the city and make contributions is just around the corner. He promised: The first to climb the city wall and gain a firm foothold will be rewarded with a thousand catties and sealed ten thousand households.

The soldiers were looking forward to the end of the war as soon as possible and also hoped to make a fortune, so they naturally worked harder. The whole offensive battle was fought vigorously, and although the quality of the Tempest Warriors was quite good, there was also an extremely tragic hand-to-hand battle in the city for a time.

Lin Yi was very calm and calm, and with the help of Zhao Hui, he commanded and dispatched in a proper manner and calmly. In order not to be embarrassed when she met the city lord, her father, the ASEAN lord, did not come to Black Cloud City. This is also an extremely rare learning opportunity for Lin Yi.

Fierce fighting lasted all night. Huangfu Song was ruthless, thinking that if Qin Tianzhu didn't show up again, Lao Tzu would completely destroy your nest. I think you're still holding your breath.

When the day was about to dawn, his subordinates reported that a group of people appeared in the direction of the forest, and it was dark, and it was impossible to see who it was. Huangfu Song rubbed his tired eyes and smiled: Luo Ming, you finally appeared!

He ordered his troops to form themselves and slowly retreat, ready to lead the enemy into the trap he had set. But strangely, the group of men and horses coming from the opposite side stopped when they were about two miles away. Then they lit torches and began to reorganize the team.

"What exactly do they want to do?" asked Huangfu Song, puzzled. He looked at it for a while, and found that it was already dark, but the gang not only grinded and chirped to organize the team, but also had no intention of extinguishing the torches at all. "Are they trying to attack with rockets?"

He didn't care about waiting for the opponent to attack any longer, because he had heard that the opponent's arrows were shot far away. Instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to strike first. He ordered the Blue Fire Wolf Cavalry to take the lead in the attack, and the hoplites followed, relying on their numerical superiority to defeat the opponent. At the same time, light cavalry and hoplites were on standby to prevent the men in the city from trying to rush out and flank them on both sides.

In fact, Luo Ming had long known that the other party had a trap, and he didn't care about the other party's trap at all.

Xiao Yu is on the distant mountains every day, scouting Huangfu Song's every move.

Whether there is a trap or not, Luo Ming has no intention of attacking the opponent's camp, because his target is the opponent's ace troops, the Blue Fire Wolf Cavalry Army. This force is the backbone of the Eastern Holy Kingdom. For him, if this force is eliminated, the overall strength of the Eastern Saint Kingdom will not be remarkable.

His original intention was to lure the other party into attacking first. Of course, if the opponent can endure it, he will send troops to constantly attack the opponent's patience with the hard crossbow "Legend of the Grim Reaper". Because there is no weapon with a greater range than the "Legend of the Grim Reaper", if you insist on not fighting, you will only be wiped out by the opponent with one arrow at a time. Therefore, for Huangfu Song, playing may be the only choice.

At the sound of an order, nearly 100,000 cyan wolves, taller than military horses, bared their hideous canine teeth, let out a wild and deafening roar, and the tide rushed towards the Flying Tigers. The tsunami-like momentum immediately made the 8,000 people in front of them look extremely thin, like a boat in a tyrannical typhoon, lonely and fragile enough to be swallowed up and disappear at any moment.

The huge hooves of countless tall wild wolves slammed into the ground with a thud, causing the whole earth to tremble violently as if an earthquake had occurred. Even some of the emaciated infantry of the Eastern Holy Kingdom, as well as the people in Xuanyang City who were relatively light, were all knocked to the ground one by one, trembling and unable to get up.

But in the face of this overwhelming impact, the players of the Flying Tigers appeared very calm and calm. They line up in a semicircle that curves inwards to maximize the opponent's arrow-style charge formation. The players in the first row had already taken a half-kneeling position and aimed at the surging opponents.

Jiang Tengjiao, the general of the Flying Tigers, was in the front row of the team. He waited until the enemy rushed to a distance of only seventy or eighty meters between the two sides, and then decisively and forcefully waved the command flag in his hand.

In an instant, countless arrows whizzed past with the breath of death. Each person fires more than one sharp arrow, and each arrow carries a powerful force through the body of more than one wolf or human.

It was as if the entire assault had suddenly been slammed on the brakes. A large number of people and wolves at the front fell to the ground in an instant, and continued to rush forward with great inertia, stirring up the dust that filled the sky. The kinetic energy of those giant wolves was so great that some even crossed the distance of seventy or eighty meters with people and wolves, and fell down in front of the Flying Tigers before they stopped moving.

The forwards, who had been hit hard, also tripped over many of the cavalry who were closely behind, and the scene was chaotic. But the Green Fire Wolf Cavalry Army, which was the trump card, was not frightened, and the cavalry that followed behind jumped vertically and horizontally, bypassing the fallen bodies of their own people, and stubbornly continued to rush forward frantically.

With the wave of the flag again, a second wave of blows followed, and countless arrows blew like a wind. Like mowing grass, the Blue Fire Wolf Cavalry Army was cut down in large areas. For a while, people turned on their backs, and the wails of pain and despair resounded in the sky.
