Volume 1 Chapter 58: Onslaught

Alchemist, Heavenly Rank Perfection, Alchemist, Heavenly Rank Perfection, Physician, Heavenly Rank Ten Heavens.

A big victory, Yunzhong collected more than 10,000 souls in one go, and after returning to the camp of Huangying Mountain, half of it was refined, and the massive soul energy raised his refiner and alchemist cultivation to the heavenly level consummation, as for the doctor's cultivation, it requires more experience accumulation, so he can only take his time.

"It seems that it is very likely to become an immortal through alchemy or refining. Yun thought secretly.

This is not what he wants, he still wants to achieve the immortal level by opening up the eight veins, because he has decided to choose the path of infinity, to be a consummate powerhouse, not a side-of-the-way battle scum.

However, the refiner's cultivation improvement gave him a practical benefit: after the consent of the three great elders, he set up a teleportation formation in the tree elf village on Huangying Mountain, and no matter where he was in the future, he could enter the dungeon at any time to hunt for beast cores.

"Manroe, that old fellow, surrendered. At noon, Yan Gang came to the training ground to look for Yunzhong.

Rakshasa Marshal Manro, after more than a month of days when there was no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth, led the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers to ask Ziyu to surrender.

At the same time, in the direction of Baishui County, Tian Chou, the general of the merchant army, used a suspicious strategy to meet with General Wei Yan and encircled and annihilated the three corps of the Rakshasa Army, and the remaining Rakshasa Army in Baishui County did not dare to make any more attempts to break through, and shrank to several cities in the northwest of Baishui County, waiting for reinforcements, but Yunzhong understood that it was impossible for their reinforcements to arrive.

In the direction of Donghaizhou, Rakshasa country, the 30,000 reinforcements that were finally put together were killed in the clouds and only fled back a few hundred people, so they could only continue to mobilize the people to join the army on the one hand, and greatly increased the proportion of female soldiers recruited, and re-recruited more than 100,000 recruits, but it is easy to recruit soldiers, but training and equipment are not a matter of overnight, and these recruits will go to the battlefield at least half a year later.

Of course, Donghai Prefecture is also asking for help from the Rakshasa royal family, but this is even more distant.

Yunzhong said to Yan Gang: "The camp of Huangying Mountain has basically completed its mission, and General Ziyu's general order should arrive soon." ”

Yan Gang nodded: "Lord Yun is here, he has made great contributions, and Yan is also honored." ”

The two flattered each other for a while.

In the early morning of the next day, Ziyu's general order really arrived, and Yan Gang was ordered to leave a lieutenant to lead 3,000 men and horses to stay in the camp of Huangying Mountain, and Yan Gang, Yunzhong, the Flying Fox Regiment and 12,000 merchant troops immediately marched out to participate in the siege of Qinglu City.

A day later, in the camp twenty miles south of Qinglu City, he met with Ziyu, the general of Pingbei, in the clouds.

Ziyu pulled up Yunzhong, who was kneeling on one knee, and laughed: "More than 40,000 enemies were destroyed in two battles, plus this virtual and real plan, it is also your head to destroy 100,000 enemies before and after, I have asked for credit for you in the direction of Youzhou, it is estimated that it will not be long before you, the baron, will become a viscount." ”

Yunzhong hurriedly thanked him, and Xu Rong, Cheng Pu, and Gongsun Zhan on the side also stepped forward to congratulate and laughed for a while.

After the generals sat down again, General Ziyu spoke: "In the past less than two months, our army has annihilated 100,000 living forces of the Rakshasas, but now Qinglu City and the forty-seven fortresses still have no less than 100,000 troops, especially the forty-seven fortresses, which are horns of each other, and they are very difficult, I don't know what your plan is?"

Gongsun Chan said proudly: "Although the enemy army still has 100,000 people, but the elite has been lost in the last few major battles, most of the remaining in Qinglu City are newly recruited soldiers, poor training, rough equipment, low morale, and 20,000 or 30,000 mercenaries, mercenaries are good at fighting tailwind battles, and now the Rakshasa people are obviously at a disadvantage, the combat effectiveness of these mercenaries has been greatly reduced, and the last general thinks that they might as well attack!"

Xu Rong said: "I also agree with General Gongsun's strategy of attacking," paused, "As General Gongsun said, although the Rakshasa army has a large number, its combat power and morale are not very strong. ”

The rest of the generals seconded the motion.

When Ziyu gave the order, he ordered Xu Rong to be the vanguard and Gongsun Zan to be the deputy to preside over the siege battle on the second day.

In the recent period of stalemate, Xu Rong was not idle in Leopard Water City, and a large number of prisoners sent back from the front line were driven by him to make a large number of siege equipment, including hundreds of stone throwers, thousands of bed crossbows, when attacking the fortress, these weapons were fired at the same time, and in the loud bang, the fortress of the Rakshasa people was completely suppressed.

However, an hour later, a fortress collapsed in half under multiple volleys from the stone throwers, and hundreds of Rakshasa soldiers fled to the nearby fortress in a hurry, half of which were shot by bed crossbows on the way.

Xu Rong calmly commanded the stone thrower to change direction and continued to bombard the second fortress, but within an hour, the second fortress was also destroyed.

The Rakshasa army in Qinglu City couldn't sit still, and thousands of Drew knights came out of the city, and launched a charge with a death-defying attitude, trying to attack Xu Rong's siege weapon position, but halfway through, they were met by 10,000 iron cavalry led by Gongsun Zhan, and the two elite cavalry troops collided together, slashing each other with scimitars and battle axes, and people kept screaming and rolling off their horses.

Xu Rong turned a blind eye to the fierce cavalry confrontation and continued to calmly command the trebuchet, and soon, destroyed the third fortress.

Another group of cavalry rushed out of Qinglu City, led by hundreds of hired paladins, behind them were thousands of Rakshasa light cavalry, and the cavalry troops of the Rakshasa people in the city were fully dispatched this time.

They also failed to impact Xu Rong's position, Yunzhong held a spear in his hand, and led the elite cavalry of the Flying Fox Regiment to kill from the side, like a sharp knife to split the ranks of the Rakshasa cavalry in half, Wei Ling, Mu Ying and Lan Yu followed closely behind Yunzhong, knocking down the paladins who fell into chaos one by one, and behind them, he also commanded the archers first, pouring feather arrows into those light cavalry who lacked armor protection.

The spear in the cloud is like a dragon, and in less than ten minutes, more than 30 paladins were picked off their horses, and these elite cavalrymen who fought for money were forced to think about the defeat in the direction of Qinglu City, and their withdrawal affected those light cavalry, and the morale of the Rakshasa people plummeted, and in the end, those Drew knights also scattered and fled the battlefield, and were chased and killed by the fast archers who were also commanded by the first, and the corpses were everywhere.

Xu Rong's attack lasted until seven o'clock in the evening, and the hoplites, under the cover of the archers, dragged the siege weapons off the battlefield and carried out the necessary maintenance in preparation for the continuation of the attack tomorrow.

It was a tragic day for the Rakshasas, as five of the forty-seven fortresses were destroyed and thousands of infantry and archers were buried in the collapsed buildings. To make matters worse, the Rakshasas lost most of their cavalry in the frenzied sortie, which forced them to face a more passive situation in the later battles.

On the second day of the siege, Xu Rong destroyed five fortresses again, including a large fortress guarded by 3,000 Rakshasas, and after breaking the wall of the fortress, Yun Zhong led hundreds of elite soldiers to rush in with dense stray arrows, and stabbed the enemies who could not escape one by one, and then transported dozens of bed crossbows into it and arranged them on the remaining walls.

At night, about two thousand Rakshasa hoplites took advantage of Xu Rong's siege weapons to withdraw from the battlefield and rushed into the fortress, trying to drive Yun Zhong and the others out, and the two sides fought to the death between the ruins and broken walls for half an hour, and finally the Rakshasas were forced to retreat, throwing down six or seven hundred corpses.

This was the last threatening counterattack launched by the Rakshasas, and in the next few days, the Rakshasas watched as the remaining thirty-seven fortresses were smashed one by one like walnuts, and finally one night, the Rakshasas withdrew all the soldiers in the remaining dozen fortresses into the city.

Ziyu personally led the army forward, and 100,000 troops and horses surrounded Qinglu City.
