The army of sand pirates was raging everywhere in Izumo Prefecture, but there was peace and quiet around Yunxia Castle for a while!

Countless sand bandits, large and small, were scurrying around the land of thousands of miles along the border, but none of them could get close to Yunxia City. The reason why this is so is naturally because Kong Ming and his Yulin Army have played a big role!

Kong Ming turned to the Quartet, which seemed to have no rules, but in fact, it was to keep the army of sand thieves out of Yunxia City. Otherwise, the Second Venerable would not have thought that Yunxia City was Kong Ming's place of salvation!

Now it is difficult to say whether Kong Ming deliberately planted such an illusion, so that the army of sand thieves could only choose to set up an ambush in Yunxia City! If you think about it carefully, with Kong Ming's resourcefulness, he is not unable to do such a thing. If everything is within Kong Ming's plan, then the two Venerables have their own means to press the bottom of the box, so why doesn't Kong Ming have it?

Kong Ming's plan, how can ordinary people speculate?

For He Muhua, who was stationed in Yunxia City, he could receive countless battle reports every day, but none of them were related to Yunxia City, which made He Muhua, who was eager to make contributions on the battlefield, really unbearable. If it weren't for the responsibility of garrisoning a place, He Muhua really wanted to be like Kong Ming, take an army out of the city and have a good fight with those hateful sand thieves!

After He Muhua and Kong Ming sat down to discuss, they had a new understanding of the method of battle formation, just when Kong Ming was in retreat and could not train the Yulin Army, He Muhua also tried to train the main force under his command in a new way, and he felt that it was still quite effective, and the only thing he lacked now was a chance to fight!

He Muhua was confident and felt that with his main force against the sand bandits, then the sand bandits who had no military discipline to speak of would definitely not be an opponent, but they would not be able to create a mythical record like the Yulin Army.

Obviously, he felt that the combat effectiveness of his army had been greatly improved, but there were no sand thieves who were not long-sighted to break into Yunxia City, so that He Muhua had the opportunity to try his strengths, which was really a helpless thing.

However, He Muhua soon had no choice but to get up. Because on this day, he received an urgent report from the sentry cavalry, and an army of sand thieves was killing straight towards Yunxia City!

It stands to reason that He Muhua, who has always been thirsty for battle, should happily lead the army to meet the attack when he hears that an army of sand thieves is coming. But this time. He Muhua was solemn. I began to think about whether to give up the military post and retreat directly to Yunxia City for defense!

The reason why this is so is naturally because the army of sand thieves that attacked this time is too large. That's 600,000 people!

The total strength of the main force under He Muhua's command that could take part in the battle was only about 100,000, so how could it compete with the 600,000 sand pirates? Even if He Muhua was confident that the combat effectiveness of his soldiers and horses had been greatly improved, it was impossible for him to still have the confidence to win the battle despite such a huge disparity in numbers.

If this 100,000 defenders. has the same quality as the Yulin Army, so He Muhua doesn't mind being majestic, and leads the army to counterattack the sand thief army. It's a pity that such a thing can only be in He Muhua's mind, because even Kong Ming can't guarantee that he can train a hundred thousand feather forest army!

The quality of the soldiers is one problem, but the more soldiers and horses there are, the more difficult it is to ensure the fineness of the formation, and if it is impossible to lay out the "eight formations" on the battlefield. So the Yulin Army is just a group of elite soldiers who are slightly stronger than ordinary soldiers, how can it be possible to create a mythical record?

600,000 enemy troops rushed straight from the front, such pressure was not something that ordinary generals could bear, and in the end He Muhua made a decision, that is, the whole army gave up the military post. Retreat to Yunxia City!

After all, Yunxia City has a formation prohibition to enhance its defense, and it is much easier to defend, and although the military post is a fortress, the number of enemy troops is too much. If you really want hundreds of thousands of troops to surround the post, then the soldiers stationed at the post. I'm afraid that no one will be spared. In this case, it is better to concentrate on defending Yunxia City and fight these sand thieves to the end!

The most important thing is that as long as you can hold Yunxia City, you can wait for reinforcements!

At least the Yulin Army led by Kong Ming will definitely return to Yunxia City.

He Muhua recognized that the combat effectiveness of the Yulin Army was indeed amazing, but he could not imagine that a mere 800 Yulin Army would have the ability to defeat an army of 600,000 sand thieves. However, as long as the Yulin Army can fight a dozen guerrillas on the periphery, so that the sand thief army is trapped in internal and external troubles, it will never be a problem to defend Yunxia City!

The only question now is whether Yunxia City will be able to hold on to Kong Ming's Yulin Army to help?

He Muhua secretly encouraged himself, if he couldn't even defend Yunxia City, then he was not qualified to become the "famous general" that Kong Ming said, and what kind of face did he have to talk to Kong Ming about the way to lead the troops?

As He Muhua transferred all the 200,000 local defenders back to Yunxia City, the entire Yunxia City immediately entered a state of combat readiness, just waiting for the army of sand thieves to come over! But what surprised He Muhua was that the originally menacing army of sand thieves was really about to attack Yunxia City, but it became unhurried, so they directly surrounded Yunxia City, but did not rush to attack. What's more, the sand pirate army occupies the dove's nest and directly uses the military post as their temporary headquarters, obviously putting on an appearance of wanting to fight a protracted war!

He Muhua is also a veteran of the battle, and after seeing such a situation, four words immediately came to mind - encircling the point to send reinforcements!

The purpose of the sand thief army is obvious, that is, to set a trap and wait for Kong Ming and his Yulin army to drill into it!

He Muhua was anxious and wanted to inform Kong Ming of the news. However, now that the entire Yunxia City is besieged, and no one knows where Kong Ming is, how can he pass the news to him?

He Muhua couldn't think of a solution, so he had to visit the Confucian Mansion to see if the people in the Confucian Mansion didn't have any special way to contact Kong Ming.

Since Kong Ming led the army to the expedition, it was Moyue who presided over the affairs of the Confucian Mansion, and at this time, she was also calm in the face of He Muhua, and said with a smile: "General He, please rest assured, as long as you can protect Yunxia City." As for the young master of my family, he had already ordered him before he left the city, so there was no need to worry about his safety, and the enemy's ambush had long been expected by the young master, and he had his own way to deal with it!"

He Muhua was a little skeptical after hearing this, because he didn't quite believe that Kong Ming could expect things to be like a god to such a point. However, he had no other way to think about it now than to believe it.

Defending the city, for He Muhua, he has a lot of experience, not to mention that after getting Kong Ming's guidance, Yunxia City has created a lot of sharp weapons to defend the city, just to use these sand thieves to try their power!

The sand pirate army surrounded Yunxia City, although they wanted to set up an ambush to deal with Kong Ming, but another important task was to capture Yunxia City, so their siege was not just for show, after resting for a long time, they finally launched the first wave of offensive!

The sand pirate army also knows Yunxia City well, knowing that this Xiongcheng is high in the north and low in the south, as long as it launches an offensive from the south, the possibility of capturing Yunxia City will be greater. With yes, five teams of 10,000 people, armed with various siege equipment, launched an attack on the southern city. As for the rest of the city walls, they naturally launched attacks at the same time, but such an attack was just a detailed attack, the purpose was to contain the defenders of Yunxia City, and the real main force to attack the city was still the southern city wall.

According to the wishful thinking of the sand pirate army, even if the first round of siege cannot really take Yunxia City, it can still cause great pressure on the defenders of Yunxia City. But in fact, the defenders of Yunxia City were quite easy to defend. At least, if the sand pirate army doesn't go all out, they won't want to capture Yunxia City.

The reason why this is so is naturally because the city-guarding equipment that Kong Ming proposed to manufacture has played a great role.

For example, the bed crossbow designed by Kong Ming is quite different from the traditional bed crossbow on the Tianyuan Continent, only one person is required to operate, and there is a turntable installed under the bed crossbow, which is erected on the head of the city, and the direction can be adjusted very freely. As long as the giant crossbow arrow as thick as a child's arm and almost two meters long is mounted on the bed crossbow, and then the board machine can be pulled to shoot the giant crossbow out, and the gold piercing the stone in the hole within 500 steps is really powerful!

A soldier operates a bed crossbow, and a pillar of incense can shoot at least more than ten giant crossbows in time, and it is condescending on the top of the city, and the shooting range is even longer. In this way, the army of sand thieves can at most set up a few ladders to attack the city, how can it receive too good results?

Besides, Kong Ming also designed a defensive device called the "Fire Dragon Gun", as long as the end of the "Fire Dragon Gun" is squeezed, a stream of fire oil can be spewed, and it will burn into pillars of fire in an instant, and it only needs to be fired once to turn a cloud ladder into a "fire ladder"!

Under the suppression of such sharp city defense equipment, how could the army of sand thieves be able to curry favor? The first wave of attacks lasted less than an hour, and the sand thieves had no choice but to withdraw their troops, leaving thousands of corpses under Yunxia City in vain.

The first battle was won, and the entire Yunxia City was naturally thunderous, and even He Muhua breathed a sigh of relief!

Facts have proved that Kong Ming not only trained his troops well, but even the city defense equipment he designed was so powerful that he completely suppressed the enemy army. Since Kong Ming is so powerful, it is not so easy for these sand thieves to set a trap to plot against him, maybe he really arranged it in advance?

Before using the city protection ban, you can block the attack of the sand pirates, which makes the defense of the city more certain!
