As night fell, the army of skeletons rushed out of the land of the dead and rushed towards the town of the expeditionary force.

The army of the undead has always done everything perfectly, and there is no strategy of encircling the city without one of the three missing one, and it has always been surrounded on all sides, regardless of losses, and completely destroying the enemy.

Zhang Sheng held a longbow, climbed the city wall, and defended the city with the soldiers, although he did not have the attributes related to the command of the army for the time being, but with his identity, as long as he stood here, he could stabilize the morale of the army.

However, although there are no attributes, the skills that have been honed in the previous life are there!

Zhang Sheng took the route of the archer in his last life, and the challenge of the lord of the expeditionary force failed, and by the time he had enough to brush up the prestige of the pioneer legion, there was already a mess outside the border, and the pioneer lord had no possibility of gaining a foothold. Therefore, he could only work as a mercenary, barely raising a cavalry of five thousand men.

In terms of shooting level alone, it is second only to those aboriginal generals who specialize in archery, but in the face of skeletons, no matter how superb archery skills are, it is in vain.

At a glance, the sea of skeletons is white, there is no formation at all, no armor, and the blade is just a bone sword of average hardness, but it comes with corpse poison. There was no tactic, so they rushed up.

"Trebuchet preparation...... Put! ”

The throwing rods of the neatly arranged trebuchets bounced high in unison, and the polished stone projectiles were thrown out, and ten of them were placed behind the four walls.

This kind of trebuchet with a general effect on people is extremely useful for skeletons, because the skeletons are in dense formations and will not dodge, and the stone projectiles will fall into white bones and splash, or be crushed into bone slag, and only a few lucky skeletons will keep the skulls and wait for their companions to rescue.

However, with the frequency of trebuchet's attacks, it is only a drop in the ocean for the Sea of Skelets.

Soon, the Sea of Skulls poured under the walls and poured up to the top of the wall in the manner of Skull Mountain. The soldiers began to stir the stones, pour the oil, and after dropping the torches, the fire burst into flames, and the night sky was lit up instantly.

The undead are not really iron, and they still know how to instinctively avoid danger, but unfortunately the fire oil in the war reserve warehouse is limited, and even if the four walls are set on fire, it is only useless to delay time.

"Give the order, prepare to retreat!"

"Governor, are you going to withdraw so early?"

"Do you want to dance with these bones on the wall? Bring them up for street fighting! ”

The goal of the undead is always the living, exchanging space for time, and when dawn comes, the skeleton army will naturally retreat, which is much lower than the loss in a fierce battle at the wall.

The skeleton is introduced into the laneway, the spear and shield soldiers are blocked, and the light cavalry is interspersed at the right time, and the trap is arranged in advance to kill it, and the defensive pressure is too great, so the blasting arrow is used to clear a wave, which is much more comfortable than on the wall that leaks on all sides, and in order to ensure the progress of the extension of the land of the dead, the skeleton army will not be pressed into the whole army.

Fortunately, this is a pure military town, and there are no people, otherwise I would not dare to be so unrestrained.

This was the case for three days in a row, and the area of the land of the dead was also slowly advancing, and it was about to be spread under the city wall, and it could drag on for two more days at most, and the army of skeletons would be able to step on the land of the dead and enter the town.

The summer etching on the city wall was finally completed, and the temperature in the town slowly rose, and the originally comfortable climate became hot, and with the assistance of the spirit stone, the temperature rate was much faster than normal.

The arrangement of the town has been completed, the rolling logs for the defense of the city have been placed in the measured positions, the arrow towers and watchtowers have been removed, and the available timber has been used, even the forage for the cavalry. Sulfur, saltpeter, and oil can't be poured directly, and the temperature in the town continues to rise, and it may burn at some point.

"Yu Qing, you don't have to participate in the next battle, speed up the excavation of the tunnel, and wait for my order, as soon as the order arrives, you will take Master Huang to break through."

"Remember, be sure to protect Master Huang!"

In the next battle, a third-rate general will not play a role, it is better to gamble, and then the skeleton army will pour into the town, even if there are still remnants, it will not be like it is surrounded like an iron bucket now.

However, Zhang Sheng couldn't give him too many soldiers, one hundred light horses, fifty spears and shields, fifty strong soldiers, and the last two hundred bursting arrows, this was the limit.

"Governor, let's come to the queen from the end." Yu Qing scratched his head and said.

This tunnel is the last hope of the defenders, for the sake of the army's heart, Zhang Sheng deceived them, and after this breakout team leaves, he will directly cut off the retreat.

"It's an order!" He can't even fight the skeleton alone, how can he rush out if he leads the team to break through.

"Yes!"

Under the double pressure of the siege and the dead, the morale of the defenders could not be maintained no matter how hard Zhang Sheng tried, and it was declining every day, and their fear and retreat affected their combat effectiveness.

Can't put it off any longer!

On the night of the fifth day, the tunnel was finally dug to the target location, but the exit could not be dug for the time being, and the top of the head was full of skeletons. On the same day, the earth of the dead spread over the walls and into the town, so that the attack of the skeleton army would no longer be divided into day and night.

The four walls of the city fell, and the sea of skeletons that beat like a tidal wave filled the streets, and Zhang Sheng, who was standing in the attic of the garrison mansion, personally beat the war drums, and the majestic war drums waved with the military order.

The strongbowmen hidden in the high ground fired rockets at the target position one after another according to the prior order, and in the environment that was even hotter than the scorching heat, the fire-starting objects that had been arranged quickly burst into flames, and quickly spread from the ignition of the fire into patches.

Zhang Sheng put down the drumsticks, picked up the longbow, and lit it above the underground warehouse where the tunnels were being dug.

Fire!

The entire town of the expeditionary force was turned into a sea of fire in a short period of time, and the raging fire lit up the dark night sky red. At this moment, the town of the Expeditionary Force resembles a giant furnace, while the summer etching on the four walls continues to heat up the interior.

Zhang Sheng's vision was completely filled with flames, the scorching heat made his whole body very uncomfortable, his vision became blurred, and from time to time there were sad and unwilling insults in the sea of fire, and the deceived soldiers suddenly woke up at this moment, but they did not change the ending, and fell into the sea of fire with the surrounding skeletons.

Before the flames could burn up the attic, Zhang Sheng had already fallen to the ground.

A series of system information echoed in his ears, and Zhang Sheng's vision changed, and he was already standing in a group of people, at this time, when the sun was rising.
