The frontal battlefield is in full swing and has entered a white-hot stage, with each other constantly attacking and defending, and each other has been damaged.

The flanks, the mountains on both sides, under the responsibility of General Koron, were also infested by enemy forces.

When the frontal battlefield was shouting like thunder, the two flanks respectively touched a team of enemy sergeants, with long knives in their hands, and cautiously marched towards the front gate of Zhu'an City.

The sentry posts set up on both flanks immediately discovered the enemy's movements, but according to Koron's orders, they did not attack immediately, but when the enemy touched the front, they suddenly attacked and engaged the enemy in close combat.

Compared with the fierce attack on the front, the number of enemy troops responsible for the sneak attack on both flanks was significantly smaller, and the soldiers of the Dongwangfu who were in ambush did not take much effort to retreat the enemy's advance and attack, killing countless enemy troops.

The news was reported to Kou Long as quickly as possible, and Kou Long immediately ordered all soldiers to stand still, and all sentry posts to strengthen their defenses, and not to attack without authorization.

According to his estimates, it is absolutely impossible for the enemy army to have only one tentative attack, and there must be a follow-up hand behind, and if it is dispatched now, it will definitely be ambushed by the enemy.

Ye Guan's plan is very perfect, and he is only waiting for an opportunity. If the enemy begins to attack the front door violently, and does not hesitate to devote all his troops to hysteria, the sergeants on both flanks can move, quickly take down the enemy's camp on the left and right, and then surprise the enemy from both sides. Only in this way will it be possible to win more with less, repel the enemy's forces several times larger than our own, and usher in a valuable retreat opportunity for our side.

In this regard, whether it is a general or a sergeant, they must be calm, if they mess up at the moment, they are likely to lose the whole game.

All the movements of the enemy army were not beyond Ye Guan's expectations, and after listening to the report of the herald who came to him, he became more and more firm in this.

No matter what the strategy of the enemy general is, as long as he attacks, he will definitely fall into his trap, unconsciously increase his forces, and finally form a general offensive momentum, so that he will definitely give himself a chance to defeat him. Ye Guan still has such self-confidence.

The only thing he was worried about now was the mysterious black-robed man.

Ye Guan was worried that this person would come to him at a critical moment, let all his opportunities retreat, and delay the fighter.

He had been sitting in the hut, waiting for this man. According to his estimate, before he withdraws from Zhu'an City, this person will definitely appear, and the appearance of this person is likely to bring changes to the current situation.

It's just that he doesn't know how much a cultivator at such a level, a master outside the world, cares about Tianqing City's plan, and whether he will drag himself back with this purpose. If that's the case, then I definitely won't be able to leave.

At the same time, Ye Guan is also worried about Huang Yongning's side, I don't know how long it will take him to gather all the soldiers, the letter has been sent, hurry up, and you can reach Changhui City in one day, if Huang Yongning starts to act as soon as possible, it will take two or three days to arrange everything clearly, if Yu Sheng and Liu Yuan retreat with a large army, how can it take four or five days, but the Zhu'an City he is now stationed in, can it last four or five days

Ye Guan frowned, thinking about what was happening in front of him now, and felt a little worried. He is at ease in the affairs of the battlefield, but he is not at all sure about dealing with Tianqing City. Some of the forces they can control are not something they can imagine, and how will they deal with such an enemy.

Outside the courtyard, the earth-shattering war drums and the shouts of the battlefield were endless, and the sound of huge fireballs scraping through the sky never disappeared. The battle continued, and the enemy army seemed to have invested the main force, and kept storming the walls of Zhu'an City. Ding Jiang, on the other hand, adopted the method of taking turns to garrison, with every two brigades as a shift, defending the city wall of Zhu'an City like a wheel.

As soon as the fire slowly extinguished, the enemy began to advance. The fire served to clean up the battlefield, and countless charred corpses lay on the charred ground, and countless layers were stacked. The scattered siege equipment in front of the city gate was also destroyed by the fire, and became a charred black charcoal, piled up in a ball.

The entire battlefield was filled with a pungent smell of burning, which spread throughout Zhu'an City, making all the soldiers defending the city nervous.

The enemy's advance continued, and the trebuchet not far away kept shooting fireballs to hit the city wall of Zhu'an City, even if the city wall was poured with pig iron, but the repeated attacks also left deep traces on it, and fine gaps appeared on the city wall, and in the continuous attack, it continued to spread, but for this matter, everyone, including Ding Jiang, had no choice.

Zhu'an City lacked long-range attack weapons, and could not open the city gate to send cavalry to raid, long before, Ding Jiang had already recalled the cavalry in ambush on both sides, because the enemy army had already been prepared, and the sudden cavalry raid had no effect.

Behind the city, there is a ballista, five ballistas, although this kind of weapon is extremely powerful, but the number of ballistae is too small, under the attack of the enemy, even if all are released, it will not have the desired effect, and the enemy generals know Zhu'an City well, how can they not know that Zhu'an City is equipped with ballistas.

Looking at the advancing enemy phalanx and the trebuchet that kept inspiring fireballs, Ding Jiang frowned, he had to think of a way to deal with the enemy's long-range weapons, otherwise it was only a matter of time before the enemy broke through the city.

As soon as he turned around, Ding Jiang looked into the city and saw the burning houses in the city, and suddenly had an idea, immediately found a guard, and ordered very quickly: "Hurry up and order the three teams, immediately go to the city to demolish the houses, and make trebuchets as fast as possible, no matter how shabby, the sooner the better." ”

The guards who were ordered were stunned for a moment, not knowing what Ding Jiang was going to do, but they did not hesitate, and immediately went down from the city, and the station on the side of the road gave an order.

After the guards left, Ding Jiang no longer looked at the advance of the enemy army, in his opinion, the two brigades that had just changed their guard were completely able to cope with the normal advance of the enemy army, and he didn't have to worry about anything at all. He immediately took the distance with his footsteps on the wall, and carefully checked the distance between the wall and the enemy's trebuchet.

Walking back and forth on the city wall a few times, throwing the enemy corpses on the ground off the city wall, quickly clearing out a vacant field, Ding Jiang simulated the range of a simple trebuchet in his mind, and aimed at the enemy trebuchet in the distance, simulated many times in his mind, and finally felt that this method was feasible, he immediately turned around and ordered, and he quickly got off the city wall and strode towards the station.

The enemy attacked in a normal way, and even if the mechanics were faster, it would not be possible to break through the walls of Takean Castle in a short time, but if the enemy trebuchets were allowed to attack so fiercely, the walls could collapse even if they were strong. Ding Jiang strode towards the station, and when he arrived at the station, the third brigade had just finished assembling and was preparing to carry out his orders.

Seeing Ding Jiang coming, the captain of the third brigade immediately stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "I have seen General Ding." ”

Ding Jiang didn't have the heart to care about these etiquettes at the moment, he pulled him up, spoke quickly, and said in a deep voice: "Go to make a simple trebuchet immediately, just use the beams of the house to make it as fast as possible, I only need half the size of the usual trebuchet, and all the remaining materials will be transported to the city wall for me." ”

The captain was obviously stunned, the improvised trebuchet was originally not very powerful, and it was used to temporarily hinder the enemy's movement in the battlefield, and it was not usually used in siege warfare. Such a trebuchet is much smaller and less powerful than the trebuchet in front of the enemy's current equipment. If the volume is reduced by half, the power will be even smaller, what can such a siege machine do?

But seeing Ding Jiang's anxious face, there was no meaning to laugh at all, although the captain didn't understand what Ding Jiang was going to do, he still agreed immediately, and knew that the time was pressing, so he immediately led the sergeants of the third brigade to the side of the homestay area, and began to demolish the houses, and washed out the beams from the houses.

How they made trebuchets, Ding Jiang didn't have the time to care, after explaining the matter, he immediately quickly returned to the city wall, when he returned to the city wall, the enemy's phalanx had already entered the firing range, and the defending sergeant frantically poured arrows downward, without leaving a trace of hands.

The configuration of the enemy's phalanx this time is almost exactly the same as last time, it is also four push-city towers and a city-rushing car, but the number of sergeants is obviously much more than the last time, in addition to the push-city tower, in the enemy phalanx, you can also see several ladders, it seems that the enemy army is also changing its strategy, and found that it is impossible to take the city wall of Zhu'an City with the push-city tower alone, so it adopts a more convenient way.

Ding Jiang held a long knife in his hand, his face was expressionless, and he looked coldly at the enemy phalanx that was advancing under the city.

After the battle, he was already exhausted, and a short rest could not replenish much, and now if the enemy pushed the tower to the vicinity of the city wall, and then hid the enemy's masters, he was afraid that he could not provide much combat power, but at this time, he could not retreat.

"Attack with all your might!" Ding Jiang raised his long knife until he pushed the tower. Immediately, countless arrow feathers shot at the Push Tower, and the arrow feathers with flames shot on the wall of the Tower, splashing countless sparks, but they could not ignite the Tower.

Immediately, the sergeant force defending the city aimed the attack at the enemy sergeant near the tower of the city, and a rain of arrows rained down, killing several enemy soldiers instantly.

Ding Jiang frowned, looking at the advancing Tuicheng Tower, he felt a little anxious in his heart. He didn't know how many masters in the enemy army were hidden among the ordinary sergeants, but he knew that if the enemy's Push Tower came close this time, it would cause a large number of casualties to the soldiers defending the city, because his combat effectiveness had declined, and he was also injured, and it was still possible to confront a warrior-level monk head-on, and if he faced many people, even he himself could die.

"Damn it. Ding Jiang cursed, and shouted at the sergeant on the side, "Attack with all your strength!" With that, he strode away and went straight to the tower.

A huge ballista was parked in the middle of the tower, which had an excellent view of the entire battlefield, and on the ballista, the ballista had already been loaded, but without Ding Jiang's order, no sergeant would activate the ballista without permission.

The enemy could not destroy the tower at the first time, which made Ding Jiang a little anxious, he came to the tower and immediately ordered the sergeant on duty in the tower to push the ballista up the city wall.

With a "crunch" sound, the bulky ballista was quickly pushed onto the side of the city wall, and Ding Jiang personally controlled the ballista and aimed at the enemy pushing the city tower, with a cold look in his eyes.

"I asked you to repair this broken tower so strongly, I'll see if it's you hard, or Lao Tzu's ballista hard!"

After aiming, Ding Jiang cursed, grabbed the trigger rope of the ballista in his hand, and activated the ballista without hesitation.

"Hoo ......"

A fierce sound came, and the huge ballista was activated by the bowstring, and shot out rapidly, heading straight for the slowly advancing tower in front of the city.

In just one moment, the ballista shot at a Push Tower, and the defense of the Push Tower was as fragile as a piece of paper under the impact of the ballista, and it was easily shattered, and the ballista continued to gain momentum, and rushed towards another Push Tower again.

The enemy's formation was well arranged, just in a straight line, and the ballista fired by Ding Jiang directly destroyed the three Tuicheng Towers, which lost its momentum and slowly fell down.

The huge force generated when destroying the enemy's Push Tower caused heavy casualties to the enemy near the Tower, and several enemy soldiers were casually hit by the Tower and died on the spot.

"Okay!" Ding Jiang excitedly patted the ballista, laughed, and immediately ordered several sergeants to hide the ballista.

And at this moment, he suddenly saw several bright flames rapidly attacking him, which were the attack of trebuchets.

"Get out of the way!" Ding Jiang immediately said that he was not in good consciousness, shouted in his mouth, and then flashed to the side.
