of the city of Lou.

The atmosphere in the city was very depressing, and although there were 200,000 troops sent by the empire at this time, their morale was not high because of the lack of a commander. Moreover, the enemy outside the city had an army of nearly half a hundred thousand, and they did not have an advantage in numbers.

In the absence of a commander, the lieutenant general could not exercise enough power, so they could only defend passively, fighting the enemy's attack while trying to appease the local people and military as much as possible.

The lieutenant general walked to the city wall alone, he was just a lieutenant general with the strength of Douzun.

If he wants to become a general, he must at least reach the realm of immortals.

At this time, the city lord, who had already watched the situation at the head of the city, was also a little anxious when he saw the deputy general who looked a little worried, and said to the deputy general: "Deputy general, is there no news from the empire?"

"Nope. The lieutenant sighed lightly.

"This ...... Our soldiers are demoralized, you say, what can we do?" the city lord was also very anxious, and he was in a hurry.

The adjutant general also had a headache and said, "City Lord, I can't control the entire army alone!"

"Well, hey, it looks like we're going to have to hold on. The city lord looked out of the city worriedly, and at this time, Herus led his hundreds of thousands of iron hoof legions and was already stationed dozens of miles below the city.

In addition, there were 100,000 slave troops, all of whom had been cobbled together from various cities in the area they occupied, in order to consume the military supplies of Lu City, and they were not expected to kill the enemy.

Fortunately, Lucheng is not like other cities in the southwest, the walls of this city are very high, and it is difficult to win with spray guns, so if you want to capture Lucheng, you need the assistance of siege equipment and a strong attack.

And apparently, the army under the city still needs time to prepare these things.

On the side of the Iron Hoof Legion, although Herus is not a wise general, he relies on his many people, coupled with his strength, and the other party has no main general, he believes that under the strong attack, Lu Cheng will not be able to hold out for long.

Therefore, he did not rush to attack immediately, but first set up camp, let the army be stationed first, and at the same time, let people prepare siege equipment.

After everything is prepared, use the slave army to attack Lucheng day and night, and then let your Iron Hoof Legion rush up and take Lucheng directly.

And although his idea is very simple, it is also very effective, even if there are 200,000 troops in Lu City, it is difficult to support the continuous consumption of resources, physical strength and spirit.

The deputy general and the city lord of Lu City also seemed to see the other party's intentions, and became even more worried.

"Our 200,000 troops are going to be stationed in various cities, and the forces are already very scattered, and the other party seems to be planning to attack, and let those slaves come up and attack first, which is extremely unfavorable to us!"

"I know that I have asked Your Majesty for help, and I hope that the reinforcements will arrive soon. ”

"Well, the general will preside over military affairs first, and I'll go to appease the people first. The city lord said helplessly.

"Good. ”

So, they both left, because the Iron Hoof Legion would not attack immediately, so they only needed to leave some cronies to watch.

When night fell, outside the city of Lu, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps.

"Did you hear anything?"

"Yes, it seems to be footsteps?"

At this time, a soldier looked out of the city, his face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed, "Enemy attack." ”

"Rush!"

"Kill!"

Seeing that it had been discovered, the Iron Hoof Legion did not hide anymore, and directly drove the army of slaves to rush up.

"Quick, inform the general. ”

"Kill!"

The shouts and killings outside the city were endless, and in the quiet Lucheng, it was obviously particularly harsh, which alarmed the city, making some dogs in the city bark, as if they were very uneasy, and also alarmed the people who had already slept in the city.

"Hurry up!" said the lieutenant, putting on his armor as he walked, "Fetch my weapon." ”

"General. ”

A soldier took the lieutenant's spear and handed it to the lieutenant, who immediately came to the outside of the palace, mounted the war horse that his own soldiers had prepared long ago, and led a group of his own soldiers to the head of the city.

At this time, under the city, the army of slaves, who were very poorly dressed, carried long ladders, and under the cover of the archers of the Iron Hoof Legion, they rushed loudly and rushed to the city wall.

"Shoot the arrows. ”

At the head of the city, the ready archers, under the shouts of the generals, suddenly, a sound of bowstrings leaving the strings sounded, and a large number of feather arrows fell like rain, and the sound of 'Xiu Xiu Xiu' breaking the air, with a sharp cold, instantly pierced into the dense army of slaves.

"Puff. ”

"Ahh

"Help!"

"Ah, my feet hurt, help me!"

"I've got an arrow in my hand!"

Attacked by a rain of arrows, these slaves were in a big mess, and where did they dare to rush forward.

"Let them go on or die!"

The generals of the Iron Hoof Legion in the rear seemed to have anticipated the current situation and immediately arranged it.

Suddenly, a large array of archers stepped forward and said to the slaves who had fled in front, "Keep rushing, or you will die!"

Seeing that the slaves were still retreating in fear of death, the general shouted loudly and said, "Release the arrows." ”

"Woohoo. ”

"Ah!" the army of escaped slaves died in large numbers, so frightened that the remaining slaves could only turn their heads and rush to the walls again.

The archers above the city wall once again released a rain of arrows, but the effect of the rain of arrows did not last long, and the slaves had already killed under the city walls, and set up ladders, armed with rudimentary weapons, stepped on the ladders, and began to rush towards the city walls.

"Quick, pour the gold juice. ”

A large amount of boiling oil and water poured down from the city wall, and suddenly a large number of screams rang out among the slaves below, and slaves kept falling from the top of the ladder, hitting the slaves behind, or directly falling to their deaths.

The slaves who had just come into contact with each other and had not undergone any training were suffering more and more casualties, but the generals of the Iron Hoof Legion, who were supervising the battle in the rear, were expressionless and looked at everything in front of them indifferently.

Although night was not a good time to fight, Herus was eager to make a contribution, so he launched a night attack, hoping for an unexpected gain.

Unfortunately, it failed, and the enemy was already on guard, so he simply turned to a strong attack and let the army of slaves go up.

This is his backup plan, if the enemy is not prepared, then he will send the main force to directly seize the city, if the enemy is prepared, then he will turn the sneak attack war into a war of attrition.

"King, it looks like we may be going to consume the 100,000 slaves. The military advisor beside Herus said.

"Well, give me orders, not day and night, take turns to attack, until the slaves are dead. Herus turned his head and looked at the herald beside him.

"Yes, King. The herald answered, and immediately went to give the order.

The fighting in Lucheng shows no signs of stopping, and the pressure on the defenders has increased, although the threat of the slave army is not great, but there are too many of them, and as time goes by, those who are not qualified will be eliminated, and those who are qualified will become more and more elite, and finally become the real enemy of Lucheng.

Therefore, the defense of Lucheng is becoming more and more difficult, and from time to time, the elite of the Iron Hoof Legion is mixed in, so the defenders of Lucheng do not dare to be careless at all.

"Hahaha, it's been three days, I'd like to see how long you can last!" Helus laughed.

In the past three days, the attack has been carried out day and night, and the entire Lucheng has already been panicked, just imagine who can sleep peacefully under the enemy soldiers approaching the city?

When the sun rose at dawn on the fourth day, the sun shone on the whole land, and under the walls of Lucheng, corpses were piled up, and on the entire city wall, there were blood stains, and on the ground, all kinds of corpses, weapons, and instruments were scattered all over the ground, and the slave army had rested not long ago, and was about to start a new round of attacks.

"Again?"

When the sun of dawn was seen, not to mention that the defenders were tired, even the army of slaves was very tired. However, if these slave armies wanted to survive, they had to fight.

The slaves were expressionless, like the walking dead, and simply ate the coarse dry food, which was expired and moldy bread, and some of it had a faint stench, and I don't know what was on it.

But the slaves didn't take it seriously and ate it bite by bite.

Then, they picked up the weapon beside them, it was a war knife with a broken blade or a cracked gap, and then supported a somewhat shaky, weak body and slowly stood up, looking at the ground not far in front of them, they all knew that maybe soon, there would be another one lying there who would be him.

"Give it to me!" The ruthless Warlord, on a warhorse, dressed in shining armor and holding a sharp sword, shimmered in the sun, but shimmered with a dazzling coldness, and on the blade of the sword, there were traces of blood, which were left by those disobedient slaves.

"Quick!"

Everywhere there was the shouting of the overseers, and even the occasional scream, the slow slaves, either slashed on the spot or trampled by their horses.

This was a routine terrorization of slaves by the Warlords.

"Kill!"

Just as the slaves let out their last roar, ready to charge again, suddenly, a large light appeared in front of them.

The dazzling light made them unable to open their eyes for a moment, and they both blocked their eyes, and their steps stopped.

The soldiers of the Iron Hoof Legion, who were supervising the battle in the rear, were also surprised and puzzled when they saw it, and for a moment, they forgot to urge the slaves to attack.

They looked at the white expanse that suddenly appeared in front of them, and said to the people around them with some confusion: "This, what is the situation?"

"I don't know. ”

At this time, Ah Li opened a teleportation array, because of the location of Lu Cheng to be located, Ah Li needed some time, but fortunately, it was very smooth, and he teleported a thousand Chu family guards to the outside of Lu City.
