Chapter 445: Into the City
Yang Yan didn't say a word, the army galloped a stick of incense, climbed over several hills, and a big river in front of him blocked the way before stopping.
Boom Boom!
The deafening sound of bombardment came and went, and the people of the sun and flame seemed to feel the shaking of the ground when they sat on their horses, and the red flame horses snorted, and their eyes were filled with more and more high-spirited battle intent.
The Red Flame Horse is a low-level spirit beast with a lower grade, with the background of the Tianyang Dynasty, there is no horse with a higher grade than the Red Flame Horse, and the reason why a large number of Red Flame Horses are invested as war horses is because the Red Flame Horse is unruly, born for battle, and is brave and fearless in the charge.
From here, you can clearly see a floating town, and there is no longer any obstruction.
Qingshui Town!
Surrounded by rivers on all sides, three of them are calm, but the north is filled with gunsmoke, and occasionally explodes up a column of water that soars to the sky, which is extremely spectacular, even if Yang Yan and others can see it on the south bank.
Lu Feng's eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at Yang Yan with a bright eye, and said, "Your Highness gives an order!"
"Your Highness ordered!" all the generals were eager to try, and they all spoke out to fight.
Cao Ding was even more excited to wield the pair of iron axes, and the rest of the people rolled their eyes secretly, this thing doesn't have a long memory!
Yang Yan's gaze swept over everyone one by one, and finally stopped at the most restless person, and shouted lightly.
"Cao Ding. ”
"In!" Cao Ding was extremely excited for a moment, and hurriedly responded, ignoring the complicated gazes of the others.
"You lead your troops to guard here, but if you find an enemy army, you will kill them. Yang Yan said lightly.
"Yes...... Huh? Town...... Townsmen?"
Cao Ding Wubi excitedly accepted the order, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, and a sentence was stuck in his throat, like a rooster choked by the neck.
"Poof!" I don't know who was the first to laugh out loud, and then, everyone laughed out loud, and finally turned into laughter.
"Hahaha!"
All envy and jealousy are gone, and only schadenfreude remains.
"Laugh and laugh, laugh at a fart!" Cao Ding blushed, couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, and then looked at Yang Yan with an aggrieved face: "Your Highness...... , look at my size, wouldn't it be a pity not to go into battle to kill the enemy?"
Yang Yan was unmoved, and said coldly: "There is a loss on the south bank, come and see you." ”
Cao Ding was stunned, and the rest of the generals hurriedly put away their laughter and collectively silenced.
"Li Qiong, Wang De. Yang Yan ordered two more generals.
"The end will be!" the two hurriedly responded.
"The two of you led your troops to the east and west sides of the strait respectively, and immediately warned if you found any abnormalities. ”
"Order!"
"Chen Yi, immediately order to go down and build a ship, the more the better. Yang Yan said again.
"Order!" Chen Yi took the order and left.
Yang Yan looked at Lu Feng again, and Lu Feng bowed down and said, "Your Highness, please command!"
"Let people spread the word that the defenders of Qingshui Town, let's go into the city. Yang Yan said.
"Yes!" Lu Feng responded, facing the direction of Qingshui Town, and suddenly spoke, mixed with the power of Lingyuan, rolling out, actually overpowering the sound of bombing and entering the city.
Although what Yang Yan said was to let people spread the word, but Qingshui Town was under attack, and the sound of bombing was deafening, and if he wanted to spread the word on the south bank, it was difficult to cultivate without the Spirit Yuan Realm, so Lu Feng simply shouted in person.
Boom Boom!
At this time, the northern wall of Qingshui Town was being bombarded indiscriminately, and several cracks had bloomed on the wall, and occasionally the defender soldiers were bombarded off the city.
In the smoke and dust beneath the city, countless shadows of ships headed towards the city gates, and under the cover of trebuchets.
"Crossbow arrows, release!" On the city wall, the defending generals commanded the battle, and the rain-like crossbow arrows broke through the sniper elite and the sniper elite was bumpy and bumpy, and the science and technology bureau was empty, I don't know how many enemy soldiers were shot into the water, and even some ships sank, but the enemy's momentum did not weaken, as if they were not afraid.
In this way, the defenders on the city wall did not fluctuate, since yesterday, there have been more than one offensive like this, but no matter how fierce the Blood Moon army is, they will eventually be blocked from the city gates, and finally return with a feather, as long as they have enough arrows, they have no fear.
Although the cost of arrows is huge, it should not be a problem to hold on for a day or two, I heard that the army of the North Road has advanced into the territory of Lilin Province, and the reinforcements will arrive at that time, I don't believe that these northern barbarians can turn over any tricks.
After two days and one night of non-stop siege, the Blood Moon army not only failed to break through the city gate, but suffered heavy casualties, and the defenders became extremely confident, and the so-called wolf-like Blood Moon army was nothing more than that.
On the city tower, the city defender will stare at the battle with a cold face, and his expression is slightly relaxed, although the city wall has been blasted out of many small cracks, but it is impossible to attack the city with this, as long as there is no accident, it can be completely supported until the arrival of the army on the north road.
But for some reason, he always felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't explain clearly, maybe it was just an illusion.
At this moment, an adjutant general hurriedly came and reported with a happy face: "General, the army of the north road has arrived, and it is now on the south bank!"
"Are you sure it's the army of the North Road?" asked the general solemnly, this kind of thing can't be sloppy, if the enemy army sneaks into the city in disguise, it will be a catastrophe.
"Pretty sure!" said the lieutenant general, with a sonorous chest.
"That's great, immediately welcome the North Road army into the city, it is said that the Marshal of the North Road is Lu Feng, these Northern Barbarians under the city don't have to worry. The Lord will speak decisively, and his brows can't help but welling up with joy.
200,000 North Road Army, Marshal Lu Feng's name is also like thunder, several times the lonely army went deep into the enemy's brilliant achievements of the main general of the first level even Yang Huang is quite appreciated, exceptionally appointed him as the commander, although I don't know how his ability to lead the army, but he is definitely a fierce general, it can be described as a tiger with wings.
"No, General Ben will personally greet him. As he spoke, he immediately walked under the city wall, and the lieutenant quickly followed.
Yang Yan sat on the horse, quietly looking ahead, for a long time, the suspension bridge on the south gate of Qingshui Town was slowly lowered, and then the city gate slowly opened, and a hearty laughter came from the city: "Hahaha, I am Yang Tie, the guard of Qingshui Town, to welcome the arrival of the brothers of the North Road Army!"
Without Yang Yan's signal, Lu Feng had already shown the handsome order, and shouted loudly: "General Yang is polite, we have been ordered to conquer the blood moon, and when we come to Qingshui Town, we are our own brothers, so there is no need to be polite." ”
In the North Road Army, Yang Yan has established an unshakable command position, but nominally, the Marshal of the North Road is still Lu Feng.
The two sides talked and had already identified their identities, and Yang Tie, who had been secretly vigilant, relaxed, and Yang Yan said lightly: "Enter the city." ”
The army immediately marched forward and passed the suspension bridge, Lu Feng rode his horse to the front under Yang Yan's acquiescence, followed by Yang Yan surrounded by the personal guards, and then the generals and the army.
"The last general, Yang Tie, has admired the name of Marshal Lu for a long time, and it is a great fortune to see him today. Yang Tie surrendered his identity very interestingly, and smiled at Lu Feng.
The corners of Lu Feng's mouth twitched slightly, and he replied uncomfortably, "General Yang has won the award." ”
Yang Tie didn't notice his strange appearance, and said with a smile: "The marshal has come by trekking through mountains and rivers, and the last general has already ordered him to go down to prepare a banquet and wash the dust for his brothers, please come with me!"
"No need!" Lu Feng hurriedly stopped, "The enemy army is attacking the city, how can we be greedy for enjoyment, it is better to take us to the North City Tower to see the battle before talking about anything else." ”
Yang Tie's eyes were slightly different, and seeing that everyone was not dissatisfied, he couldn't help but look even more impressed by Lu Feng.
Immediately, his eyes fell on the young general in golden armor and full of jade, surrounded by everyone, so imposing.
"Presumably, this is the Northern Road Supervisor, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and the last general will see His Highness. Yang Tie understood the identity of Yang Yan after a little thought, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
No matter what he thinks about the prince's army, the number of courtesies must not be missing.
Yang Yan nodded slightly expressionlessly in response.
Yang Tie's heart was suddenly displeased, even if you are a prince, even Marshal Lu Feng is kind to each other, you are just a prison army, why shouldn't you be so contemptuous of me.
People in the army are often more straightforward in temperament, and they attach more importance to the strength of martial arts, and for this "pampered" Seventh Prince, Yang Tie originally wanted to at least lay a good relationship on the surface, but now he just wants to stay away.
Yang Tie said lightly: "It's been a long journey, the Seventh Prince must be tired, so my deputy general Zhang Bao will take you down to rest, and the last general will go up to the city tower with Marshal Lu to supervise the battle." ”
Zhang Bao on the side understood, and said: "The Seventh Prince, please!"
Yang Yan was unmoved, and said lightly: "Go to the city tower." ”
"Huh?" Zhang Bao was stunned, and even Yang Tie was stunned.
Fortunately, Lu Feng said in time: "His Royal Highness the Seventh will supervise the battle together, so there is no need to bother Vice General Zhang." ”
Yang Tie eased his nerves and looked at Yang Yan strangely, but he didn't think much about it because this was the curiosity of the prince who had lived in the deep palace for a long time.
Then he said: "Since this is the case, then you will go to Beichenglou with me to supervise the battle, and Vice General Zhang will settle the soldiers first." ”
"Everyone, please!" Yang Tie said as he turned over and got on his horse and led the way in front.
Along the way, Yang Tie explained the battle to everyone, of course, mainly to Lu Feng, which made Lu Feng uncomfortable, but fortunately, Yang Yan had been expressionless and didn't seem to care, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ascending the North Tower, the battle situation is presented in front of you, and the generals are trying their best to resist the Blood Moon Naval Army who want to force their way across the moat, and they don't pay much attention to the arrival of everyone.
Looking at the enemy soldiers who rushed forward without fear of death, suffering heavy casualties under the rain of flying locust-like arrows, but they still did not retreat, Yang Yan's face was slightly solemn.
People are afraid of death, and martial artists are even worse, an army that can move forward bravely without fear of death is a rare elite, Yang Yan feels distressed when he looks at it, but the blood moon doesn't seem to care, let these elites come to die, even if they finally capture Qingshui Town, it will be a heavy loss, it can be said that the enemy is injured eight hundred, and the self-damage is one thousand, the blood moon general should not be so unwise.
Lu Feng also frowned: "They are filling in with their lives." ”
Yang Tie said with a smile: "This is not right, I wish that all these northern barbarians would come to die, as long as we have enough arrows, they will not want to climb to the top of the city." ”
"They've been on the offensive since yesterday?" Yang Yan suddenly asked.
Yang Tie nodded and said: "They probably want to consume our military supplies, with such a crazy offensive like this, we can only hold out for two more days at most, and the city will inevitably be broken at that time, but now that Marshal Lu has led the army of the North Road, the crisis can be solved." ”
Yang Yan's gaze was firmly fixed on the crazy Blood Moon army, and suddenly shot out two cold rays, as if penetrating everything: "No, this is a disguise!"
