Chapter 562: Fire City's Strategy
Lan Yao knew that Jiang Yuxuan would not surrender, and after shouting, she directly turned around and led the army towards the north city gate.
Xu Gong watched Lan Yao go away like an idiot, and said with a sneer: "Idiots talk about dreams, if you can shout surrender, what else do you need me to do." ”
Counting the time, all the troops were in place, and Xu Gong immediately ordered the whole army to attack the city.
Jiang Yuxuan walked down the city tower and went to the city lord's mansion with Feng Ziying.
When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, a soldier ran over and said, "Officer Jiang Ting, the west city gate has been broken by Xu Gong, and several other city gates have also been attacked. ”
After listening to the report, Jiang Yuxuan motioned for the soldier to retreat and said to Feng Ziying: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to break through this time." ”
Feng Ziying looked indifferent, and said generously: "I can die in battle with Jiang Tingguan, and I will die without regrets." ”
"When all the forces of Xu Gong's two legions come in, we will retreat."
"I'll take a battalion of troops to defend the street in front of the city lord's mansion, so I can resist for a while."
"Okay." Jiang Yuxuan took a few steps back and forth, and said: "As long as Xu Gong's army comes in, we still have to break through with the army, after all, there is still a glimmer of hope." ”
Feng Ziying asked, "Which city gate to break through?" ”
Jiang Yuxuan hesitated for a moment, and said lightly: "North City Gate, there is Zhang Shunxiao's army there. ”
"That's Lan Yao's army there."
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Yuxuan replied with a gloomy expression.
Now that Jiang Yuxuan had made a decision, Feng Ziying didn't say anything more, walked out of the office, deployed the defense of the City Lord's Mansion, and rushed to the street in front with the army.
At the other end of the street, Xu Gong led the army to kill and rushed to the streets and alleys.
After rushing and killing for a while, Xu Gong's army found that except for Jiang Yuxuan's army, who had retreated to the streets and alleys after a fierce battle on the square inside the city gate, he had never encountered a single figure again.
"Legion Commander, this seems to be an empty city." A flag commander said to Xu Gong.
Xu Gong stopped and looked around, there was indeed something wrong.
Although after the start of the war, all the residents took refuge in their homes and the doors were closed, there were certainly some resisting troops and bold residents who secretly opened their windows to peek.
But now, the whole city is too quiet, and the silence is terrible.
Xu Gong was suspicious and was considering whether to retreat or continue the attack.
"Report, corps commander, Jiang Yuxuan's army was found on the central street in front." A soldier ran over and said.
"Hahaha, it turned out that I couldn't beat me in the street fighting, so I hid on the street in front of the city lord's mansion and killed me." Xu Gong gave an order and continued to move forward with the army.
After walking for more than ten minutes, there was a sudden sound in the houses on both sides of the street, and then the shouts of killing were everywhere, and then the doors, windows, and doors were broken and flew out, and many troops rushed from inside to kill the army of Xu Gong.
"There's an ambush."
"Don't panic."
"They don't have many people, kill them."
"Kill."
Xu Gong's army was rushed into disarray, but it quickly stabilized and suppressed Jiang Yuxuan's army in the houses on both sides of the ambush.
After killing several people in a row, Xu Gong saw that the ambushed Saisha Kingdom army did not have many troops, and laughed wildly: "Hahaha, with this amount of troops, you dare to ambush me, follow me to kill me, break through the city lord's mansion, and capture Jiang Yuxuan alive." ”
The total number of troops rushing out of the house was more than 2,000 people, but it only caused a little confusion to Xu Gong's army and blocked Xu Gong's front army, and in less than half an hour, they were routed and scattered in all directions.
The troops behind Xu Gong poured into the city in a steady stream, blocking the streets and alleys at once.
On the central street in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Feng Ziying watched Xu Gong slowly kill, clenched the three forks, and his eyes had already burst with killing intent.
In the face of a strong enemy like Xu Gong, Feng Ziying did not dare to be careless, so he had to fight to the death.
When Xu Gong saw Feng Ziyingjun in front of him, he immediately became excited: "Hahaha, great, there are people who are here to die, kill me, and leave no one." ”
As he spoke, the bloodthirsty battle axe had already knocked the two soldiers in front of him into the air, and he strode towards Feng Ziying.
When Xu Gong approached, Feng Ziying immediately raised the three forks to attack Xu Gong.
This attack has already gathered Feng Ziying's combat power, and ordinary junior soldiers can stab him eight or nine meters away.
Xu Gong saw Feng Ziying's three forks stabbing at him, waved the bloodthirsty battle axe, directly blocked Feng Ziying's three forks, and violently raised his combat power, knocked Feng Ziying back a few steps, danced the bloodthirsty battle axe, and cut down at Feng Ziying.
The combat power of this axe is enough to open the mountain, and it can split boulders.
Feng Ziying had just stood firm, and he didn't have time to dodge, so he could only use three prongs to resist.
Before the three forks touched Xu Gong's bloodthirsty battle axe, Feng Ziying had already sensed a powerful battle force coming, directly knocking Feng Ziying away.
Feng Ziying barely stood firm, and saw several soldiers around him rushing up to block Xu Gong.
Under Xu Gong's attack, the surrounding soldiers lay down one by one, and at this speed, they would be broken by Xu Gong and his army in about half an hour at most.
As long as this place is breached, the defense of the City Lord's Mansion is almost useless, and even if you fight hard, it will only be breached in about half an hour at most.
After calculating the time, Xu Gong's army has already entered the city for most of the time, and another half an hour is enough.
Feng Ziying did not rush forward to fight with Xu Gong again, in case he was killed by Xu Gong, there was no one here to direct the battle, and he would be instantly broken by Xu Gong.
Feng Ziying retreated, mobilized the army behind to intercept Xu Gong, and at the same time turned to the mouth of another street, leading the army to resist the attack of Xu Gong's army.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Yuxuan was sitting on a chair, listening to the battle reports that kept coming from outside at any time.
"Report, Lord Court Official, the army of Xu Gong has already fought with Commander Feng."
"Report, the South City Gate was broken through by Leng Yue."
"Report, the East City Gate is lost."
"Report, the Xu Gong army at the East City Gate and the South City Gate is about to be killed in our lord's mansion."
"Report, Xu Gong's army has basically entered the city."
Listening to the battle report, Jiang Yuxuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Before the war, Jiang Yuxuan had ordered people to move all the residents out of the city, and now the entire city is an empty city, and ordered 5,000 soldiers to hide in various houses, divided into two parts, one part is shallow to ambush Xu Gong's army, and the thousands of soldiers in this part were basically wiped out by Xu Gong.
There is also a part of the deep hidden, which is also a death squad, and the Xu Gong army, which has just entered the city, is busy fighting, and it is not easy to find the hidden army.
"Signal, set fire." Jiang Yuxuan's tone carried a hint of pity, knowing that as soon as the fire was released, more than 100,000 people would be buried in the fire.
"Yes."
As soon as the soldier retreated, the soldiers on the wall of the City Lord's Mansion lit their arrows and shot them in all directions, and the flames immediately ignited.
As soon as the fire broke out, the soldiers who were hiding everywhere immediately rushed out and lit the black oil that had been prepared earlier.
Suddenly, the entire city of Zaro was shrouded in flames.
