Chapter 21: The Battle of Tucheng
readx; Hai Shuai would never have imagined that he had fought geese all his life, and his military career was longer than the sum of Daqingshan and Amy's age, and he was old, and finally he was pinched by a little goose with a young yellow goose that had not yet grown his hair, and the corners of his mouth were still hanging with young yellow, and he was drenched in blood.

In Scambray's first offensive and defensive battle, Horns behaved less like a dwarf and more like a little fox, and he was a little fox with his tail flicking and pretending to be a big bad wolf. From the first moment he led 20,000 regular troops and 200,000 people's strong troops to Scambrai, Horns began to desperately pretend to be a wolf -- he ordered the flag bearers to raise all the four main flags of Amy, Daqingshan, Horns, and Chi Aotian, and by the way, he also raised the banners of no less than 20 middle-level cadres such as Sha Ruo, Qingluo, Ling Yun, and Qu Jianhong.
As for the banners of the main battalions of the small mercenary group, such as the Vulture Swordsman, the Vulture Archer, the Knight Battalion, the Berserker Battalion, the Prairie Jing Spirit Archer, the Forest Jing Spirit Archer, the Mountain Dwarf Great Pangolin Knight, and the Mountain Dwarf Warhammer Warrior...... , as well as the flags of several main forces of the regular army of the Northern Theater of Operations, the Colorful Dragon Knights, the Praetorian Guard, etc., all the flags that can be raised have been raised.
Reynolds, Haishuai, Merlin and other legion leaders stood at the head of Scambray City and looked down, the large battalion of the small mercenary group was lined up for more than 10 miles, the five dragon knights were staring at each other in the air, the five dragons let out a low hiss from time to time, and nearly a thousand vulture knights were lined up in a phalanx a little farther away, most of them were forest archers, and a few were human knights.
Heaven and earth are full of murderous energy!
Reynolds and Haishuai never imagined that more than ninety percent of the army they were facing now were pure peasants.
The two superiors are a little uncertain, facing the golden brain Amy, the holy dragon knight Da Qingshan, the skeleton dragon knight Chi Aotian and the dwarf prince Horns, it is impossible not to worry! Especially the bone dragon knight Chi Aotian, who is known as the god of death, in the final battle of the Huayu Plain, the undead of 700,000 of the most elite troops have achieved the peerless prestige of the children of this military family. As for Amy, Hai Shuai and Amy fought twice, and even built a floating city and was defeated twice by the boy in white at the cost of the floating city jade shattering. Hai Shuai couldn't guess what new tricks His Excellency Golden Brain would make.
Shuda and Bi have already passed on what happened on the Blue Island, and the two of them have already known about the split of the Eastern and Western Magic Empires and the successful entry of Amy and Daqingshan into the Sky City, and obtained the Golden Apple and the Apollo ** Staff in one fell swoop. Moreover, after the split, at least 30 Phantom Beast Knights and four Dragon Knights joined the Eastern Magic Empire, which is equivalent to joining the forces of the small mercenary group, and this time, the war strength of the small mercenary group has undoubtedly risen to a new height again.
The two of them thought that the small mercenary group had greatly increased in strength, and they were arrogantly preparing to forcibly attack Scambrai.
For Scambrai, Hai Shuai and Reynolds are still very confident, with these forces in front of them, unless they also make a floating city, they will ...... There is no chance. Even if the small mercenary group also created the floating city, Reynolds, Xiuda, and Bi brothers and sisters are all divine dragon knights, and the three sacred dragons are powerful together, plus the cooperation of the other two dragon knights, they can also destroy the floating city in one fell swoop. Besides, it's about to enter summer, and it's impossible to maintain Ice City.
Horns pretended to send out the heavy knight brigade of the Colorful Dragon Knights and invited the battle outside the south gate of Scambrai, and the scolding was quite ugly, such as: Dahaino went to eat, Renaud is a coward, the Western Emperor family is stupid or something, the more fierce the scolding under the city wall, the more leisurely the city wall looks, and any officer who occupies a fortified city like Scambrai will not leave the city wall unguarded and go to fight against the heavy knight brigade of the Colorful Dragon Knights...... With the same number of troops, there is really no confidence that they can handle the sharpest ace knights of the Amy Empire. In addition, this one may be able to fall for Amy's tricks.
Da Hainuo smiled and looked at the toss below on the city wall, the right to watch the play, Haishuai was afraid that the face of the Emperor of Mianyang would not be able to get by, so he might rush down when he was angry, and said a special sentence: "Your Majesty, let him have a thousand clever plans, we must always have certain rules." ”
Reynolds smiled and kindly reminded Hai Shuai that this guy Amy is too cunning, and he must be careful that he uses other means to attack the city, especially beware of the underground, such as the tunnels of the former royal palace or something.
Merlin and the other legion commanders said in their hearts: "If these things have to be considered by the marshal, then what are we legion commanders doing?"
The invitation to fight failed, and sure enough, as expected by His Majesty the King, the small mercenary group chose a sunny place in the southeast and began to dig tunnels, and at the same time, organized a large number of people to cut down all the trees near Scambrai, and transported them to the camp one by one, piled up more than ten hills, and every day there were special personnel to inspect and scatter water, and put in 20,000 or 30,000 people to use saws, planers, and axes, and were in full swing, obviously preparing to make catapults, wells, rushing cars, ladders and other siege equipment. All this is like a copy of the offensive and defensive battle of Hamburg City, but the offensive and defensive sides have changed positions, but the two sides are also defending the world-famous fortified city!
Dahaino really didn't care much about these things, and completely handed them over to Merlin, Mora Beast and other high-ranking officers, Merlin arranged for people to dig a horizontal trench outside the city - the earliest Scambrai had a moat, but due to the high latitude of Scambray and the lack of rivers nearby, the water in the moat was all stagnant, and there was a plague in history, and the moat was filled in later. In the horizontal trenches, hundreds of large water urns were buried, which were used to listen to the enemy's digging of tunnels.
During this period, the small mercenary group also sent Jing Ling Vulture Knights and Prairie Jing Ling Archers to the city to shè arrows when they had nothing to do, and all the arrow feathers had their heads knocked out, but their lethality was a thousand times greater than that of arrows - all of which were tied with silk feathers.
According to the Lords Merlin and Mora Beast, these silks are full of all kinds of garbage information, such as the feudal superstition of Qingyi sè, sparing no effort to promote the dregs of the feudal imperial system, and ** bare for the feudal remnants such as the Three Platforms and Five Constants...... In fact, the content written in these silks can be roughly divided into five categories:
The first is to carry forward the great achievements of the Amy Empire in dominating the continents for 500 years; the second is to publicize the benevolent governance implemented by the kings of the past dynasties, especially a series of effective measures taken by His Majesty Hongshi in the past 20 years, which can be called the wealth of the country and the strength of the people; the third is to slander the Fanos orcs and the Western Emperor family from all aspects, and solemnly launch the "Legend of the Emperors" of the last generation of the Western Emperor family in history to establish the dynasties, this ...... Any monarch before the fall of an empire was a mixture of cruelty, stupidity, absurdity, Greed as one of the great masters,In the silk,A detailed analysis of Reynold's Xing characteristics and which may be the direct descendant of the last emperor,In short,Reynolds basically has a blood relationship with all the last places;Fourth,It is a detailed description of the Didu bloody night,The blood stained field of Scambrai's outstanding children,General Chi Hanfeng's talk and laughter calmly went to righteousness and a series of singing and crying stories;Finally,It introduces the current war situation in various regions of the entire continent,The protagonists are all born in Scambrai's children,For example, the second boy of a certain civilian family has become the Viscount of the Empire, the prodigal son of a ruffian turned around and became a middle-level officer of the regular army of the empire, and the three brothers of a certain family became lords in the small mercenary group and received a fief of 1,000 acres, which even detailed the home addresses of these outstanding children and so on...... These words, Bo Gu and the present, quoting scriptures, and words are beady, so that anyone can't help but boil their blood after reading it, and they can't wait to jump up and cut off the enemy's head!
Reynolds and Dahaino have occasionally seen a few such things, and the two of them were shocked to see it, and their hands and feet were numb, where is this silk, it is simply thousands of small knives that are extremely sharp, and they are slashed on the body of the Western Emperor Alliance, and the blood is shining!
Comprehended, this is the first time that the two superiors have truly felt the power of His Excellency Amy outside the war, Hai Shuai can't help but think of a small poem that the teacher read to him when he was a child in a private school, "Since childhood, I have learned many talents, and I have high ambitions in my life; "The marshal has truly learned what a "pen is like a knife" in his lifetime!
As a last resort, Hai Shuai sent troops to the homes of various residents to raid and suppress ...... As a result, the price of these silk items has risen all the way, approaching Scambrai's first pirated best-selling book "Ai Yu", and the price of such a page of silk in the black market of Scambrai is as high as 25 purple gold coins, and there is no market!
When the two superiors saw these things, they were even more convinced that Amy was in the camp opposite-this was definitely Amy's handwriting, and there was no second person other than Amy who could write such a clever word, and there would be no second person other than the Golden Brain who would do such a strange thing during a siege. In order not to disturb the marshal's mind, Reynolds did not dare to tell the marshal that these silks were all in the handwriting of Lord Amy!
In fact, after Amy finished writing, she sent Lu'er to the Demon Jing Forest, gathered hundreds of Jing Ling Great Magicians to use the magic array to make tens of thousands of copies, and then tied them to Lu'er's back and sent them to Horns.
Horns saw that this thing was really good, much more nutritious than the things that the noble knights stood outside the city and shouted, and there was not a single dirty word, it was quite a knight's god, not bad. Therefore, I kept a few hundred copies privately, and sent someone to read them in the camp every day, so that the 300,000 people in the camp worked day and night, and they didn't want to be paid, so they had to say that they learned from Amy's good example.
This also made Horns quite embarrassed, the people obviously didn't understand the essence of His Excellency Amy, where can they not have money for their work? The big deal is that you can get it in your hands first, and then donate it, these are two completely different realms.
In short, in the first ten days, all the work of the small mercenary group was not lacking, and it did quite like a siege, which was a little more fully prepared than when Hai Shuai was under the city of Hamburg.
The defenders of the city have also done enough work, and have already placed rolling logs and stones on the city walls, and have also asked people to start writing the legendary stories of the Golden Dragon Princes, the founding emperors of the various dynasties of the Western Emperor family, and sent human knights to distribute them from house to house.
As a result, the small traders selling toilet paper and menstrual cotton on the black market in Scambray vomited blood one by one and went out of business, which was also a mixed reputation.
To Merlin's regret, the little mercenary group was too cunning, and everything was carried out 500 meters away from the city wall, what if it was any closer? The crossbows and bed crossbows on the city walls could cause casualties to the enemy.
All of this suddenly changed on the night of the tenth day!
As soon as it was nightfall, outside the southeast corner of Scambrae, there was a sudden uproar!
The city wall didn't know what was going on below, so they hurriedly reported to Hai Shuai and Renol, both of whom had not yet slept, and hurriedly stood at the head of the city neatly and looked out: seven or eight hundred meters away, countless torches formed several long lines, and one after another of soldiers began to line up outside, and then, there were grassland jingling archers standing outside the city and shè arrows towards the city. At such a distance, only the grassland jing spirit archers can use the power of the wind to put the arrow feather shè on the head of Scambrai City, and now it is chuntian, just the southeast wind, any grassland jing spirit can send the arrow feather shè out more than 800 meters.
A shield had to be erected on the city walls.
What the hell is going on under the city? Reynolds and Yemoda drove the dragon to take a look nearby, and as a result, they were targeted by the five dragon knights of the small mercenary group and more than 200 vulture spirit archer knights, and the sound of the jingling short bowstring flying in the sky above Scambrai resounded, thanks to the sharp eyes of the two dragons, otherwise...... Even if Reynolds were to get away with it, the Golden Dragon Knight Yemoda would definitely be turned into a large hedgehog.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Reynolds and Haishuai were woken up from the bed by someone sent by Merlin, who had been staring at the city wall all night. Hearing the urgency of the situation, the two adults came to the city wall without even washing their faces, and looked southeast through the little light of the eastern sky, and the two most famous officers during the war of the gods opened their mouths wide!
Directly opposite them, in just one night, a hill with a diameter of more than 60 meters and a diameter of no less than 100 meters was erected!
The hill also hung down a large banner, black on a white background, the sun just rose from the east, and Haishuai and His Majesty both saw the handwriting they had been looking at for the past few days: "I'm sorry, the floating city has fallen, and it will be settled." ”
