The iron cavalry of the Northern Tribes continued to kill the catapult, with the aim of destroying the catapult. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"It seems that this army of 2,000 people of the Northern Clan, led by Er'er, will be defeated!"
A smile appeared on Gan Wuya's face, and he whispered, "The catapult only has ten fireballs, and by the time your iron rider arrives, the fireballs will have already been projected." Even if they smashed the catapult and destroyed it, what could they do? The general commanded such an incompetent, and he took pity on his soldiers. ā
"Perhaps they are worried about our soldiers, bringing in fireballs and burning objects, and continue to throw them at them. Sven, who was standing next to him, whispered to him.
"Fatty, this is a mistake! There is time to carry the burning things, and the shield array has already come to the front, what else do you need a catapult for?" Gan Wuya shook his head and smiled.
Sven was not convinced and fought back. Gan Wuya shook his head with a smile and continued to deny, and the two discussed and argued.
Although Wei Wuji was standing in the distance, he heard all the words of the two of them.
Gan Wuya is familiar with the art of puppet mechanisms, and he naturally knows simple tools such as catapults, and what he says makes sense. Shi Wen's words are not bad, you must know that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is very difficult to anticipate the enemy first, so you can only adapt to the situation.
At this time, the generals of the Northern Tribes probably discovered their mistakes, and hurriedly beat the war drums, knock knock! The drums of the Northern Tribes were different from the war drums of the Tianzhou Kingdom at the head of the city, and the soldiers of the Northern Iron Cavalry suddenly retreated and wanted to retreat into the defensive formation.
However, it was too late at this point. The sergeant of Tianzhou State blocked the way back of the iron cavalry, and wanted to completely wipe out this 300-man cavalry.
"There are about 400 people in this Northern tribe who rushed out, and now there are only 300 left. The attacking Tianzhou army has already surrounded it and can no longer go back. Sven said.
"No, the other party will kill them from the defense and rescue them back. After all, if you abandon your subordinates in battle, you must be ashamed of the people under your command. The general of the Northern Clan dares to do this, and I dare to guarantee that if he shouts to charge in the future, there will be no one desperate again. Gan Wuya said.
As soon as his words fell, a group of soldiers of the Northern Tribe, about to rush out of the defense, all of them fought bravely, and they actually killed the soldiers of Tianzhou, and retreated in defeat.
However, the rescue of the Northern Clan this time has long been taken into account by the generals of Tianzhou State. The sergeants in front retreated, and the army formation prepared in the back immediately unfolded, met them head-on, stabilized their positions, and blocked them to the death.
At this moment, the rescue army of the Northern Clan suddenly evolved into a formation and put on a fierce battle formation.
I saw that the rescue army of the Northern Clan, like a vine growing, continued to extend forward. In an instant, he defeated the soldiers of the Tianzhou State in front of him, and he was only two miles away from the iron cavalry that rescued.
The ordinary people watching the battle on the city tower naturally couldn't see any mystery, but only felt that the Northern Clan suddenly exerted its strength and slashed fiercely.
Qiu Yunhe, Long Jianqiu, Lu Yuan, and Lord Hua, as well as Elder Feng of the Southern Liang Kingdom, Xue Qian, and Sect Master Zhuang. In addition, Shi Wen, Wei Wufeng, Gan Wuya and other people from some sects have seen the changes in the Northern Clan's battle array.
This is a sect's attack array, which was used by the Northern Clan on the military array. Although it does not have the essence of tactics, it can improve the surprise attack of the army.
"Damn the Northern Clan, this is still out of tricks, I'll let the people from the Law Enforcement Hall attack!" Shi Wen hurriedly asked Qiu Yunhe for battle, and wanted to send his subordinates to attack and defeat the Northern Clan's military formation.
Qiu Yunhe didn't allow it, the reason is very simple, this confrontation is to take a look at the gap between the two sides, and in the future defensive battle of the imperial city, it is better to deploy troops. If you want to defeat this mere 3,000 Northern Clan, it's not easy? Everyone is here, and if they rush up, they can completely destroy each other in two moments at most.
"It's all an army of the same strength, the Northern Clan has just arrived in the city, and it is a tired army. The army of Tianzhou is three times the strength of the opponent's army, and even if the opponent's army formation is strong, it should also achieve a complete victory. If not, then the leader is too incompetent. I will propose to the lord of the kingdom that those who lead the army to fight be punished. Long Jianqiu interjected beside him, and he also agreed with Qiu Yunhe's idea.
At this time, the rescue army of the Northern Clan moved forward to attack and kill. It is only a few hundred feet away from the rescue iron horse, which can be said to be close at hand.
However, the generals who commanded the army also relied on their superior forces to block the other side. The fight between the two sides fell into a confrontation and was evenly matched.
This kind of battle formation of the Northern Clan can only be a sudden invasion, and it can occupy a temporary advantage. After a long time, they could not support it, and the soldiers were tired and retreated.
The army of Tianzhou took the opportunity to pursue and drove the defeated Northern Clan back. On the other side, the spear army formation was surrounded on all sides, squeezing towards the trapped iron cavalry.
A round of drums sounded at the head of the city, and the soldiers of Tianzhou State shouted in unison, rushing over together and killing all the iron horsemen of the Northern Clan.
The shield army is steadily moving, and after advancing a certain distance, it will stop, allowing subsequent reinforcements to follow and set up defenses on the spot. It looked like a wall, slowly encroaching towards the opponent's defensive place.
"Although the method is a little stupid, after surrounding it, you can rely on the advantage of troops to encircle and annihilate the Northern Clan, which can be regarded as a safe method. Gan Wuya looked at the tactics of the army outside the city and said with a smile.
"I don't like this method of warfare, if it were me, I would send an elite assault into it, and then the army would cover the past and quickly end the battle. Sven shook his head and said.
At this time, a black dot appeared high in the sky, coming towards the city.
"It's a scout from the sect, I don't know what news I brought back?"
Wei Wuji saw clearly the comer, the person of the sect who controlled the demonic beasts and birds. In the current situation, only the people of the sect can act as scouts, and ordinary sergeant scouts can't do this at all.
The scouts had news that they had found two armies of the Northern Clan, galloping towards this side. It is estimated that he heard the news that the three thousand northern tribes were surrounded, so he desperately rushed to the rescue.
"The Northern Clan who came here today are all tired divisions, so let's fight!" Long Jianqiu said.
Qiu Yunhe and the others all felt that they should attack and block these two Northern Clansmen's armies, at least until they completely destroyed the besieged Northern Clans in front of them before they could collect their troops back.
Everyone looked at Wei Wuji next to him and asked for his opinion.
Wei Wuji also felt that it was feasible, this battle could increase the morale of the royal family's soldiers and civilians, and at this time, it was the weakest time for the Northern Clan, so he could take the initiative to attack.
The city gate was wide open, and the two armies of the Tianzhou Kingdom rushed out, heading in two directions, blocking the Northern Clan who rushed to help.
And at this moment, the shield battle array was already approaching the other side, and the two sides fought together in close combat.
Under the siege of three times the military strength, the Northern Clan was slowly compressed and retreated. An hour later, seventy percent of the people of the Northern Tribes were killed and wounded, and they shrank into a mass of defenses to fight the trapped beasts.
"It is estimated that in two moments, this aggressive Northern Clan can be completely wiped out. Wei Wuji watched the fight between the two sides, and said secretly in his heart.
Suddenly, in the distance, many soldiers of the Tianzhou Kingdom fled in the direction of the city gate.
