As Huang Yuchen expected, the reason why Yu Sheng withdrew the brigades defending the hills on both sides and completely abandoned the defense of the hills was because he had a better way. And the solution is very simple, it is to set the whole hill on fire.

The hills and mountains on both sides of Changxiang City are not too high, and the height is only a little higher than the city wall of Changxiang City, but this hill covers a large area, and the hills are densely packed with trees and lawns. When Yu Sheng asked the two brigades to go up to defend, he cut down a lot of trees on the spot, and when he retreated, a lot of ignition agents were placed in the hilly jungle, which made the hills on both sides can be ignited at any time.

With this arrangement, the rest of his life was naturally not afraid of enemy troops entering hilly areas.

And when the enemy army really entered the hilly area, Yu Sheng immediately ordered the soldiers in the city to light rockets and shoot them at the hills on both sides.

The flames suddenly rose and set fire to the trees on the hills on both sides, and the fire spread extremely fast, soon engulfing the entire hilly area, and even more spread into the distance.

Because the fire came too fast, when the enclave realized that something was wrong, the monstrous flames were close at hand. All the enclave sergeants immediately retreated, and the originally arranged formation instantly became chaotic, the sergeants scrambled to flee for their lives, the formation was chaotic, and there were not a few sergeants who entered the hilly area, such a chaos, coupled with the fire, the casualty number skyrocketed.

Many of the sergeants were hit by other sergeants and were never able to get up, and eventually more sergeants were trampled under their feet and died before the fire could come. It was also because of the large number of trees in the hilly area, which made it difficult to enter and retreat, and coupled with the chaotic atmosphere, fear had taken over the hearts of all the enclave sergeants, leading to even more confusion. The enclave sergeant who finally escaped from the hills was not one in ten.

The hills on both sides of Changxiang City quickly turned into two fire dragons, billowing smoke rising into the sky, and the strong fire illuminated the entire Changxiang City, like day. Such a large jungle is really lit, and the flames are absolutely uncontrollable. Fortunately, there is a city wall between Changxiang City and the hills, otherwise such a big fire would not be spared from Changxiang City.

Huang Yuchen didn't see how many enemy troops entered the hills, and a moment after the herald issued a warning, the hills on both sides were in flames, and the rest of his life had already calculated everything.

At the front door, the battle continues, but it is nearing its end. This time the attacking enemy army, a total of 5,000 people, but most of them are miscellaneous soldiers who have not been on the battlefield, before the black armor iron cavalry charged, the defending sergeant did not spare his hand, shot countless enemy sergeants, but after the black armored iron cavalry destroyed the enemy's storming carts and trebuchets, the attack of the defending sergeant was obviously weakened, and each time the arrow feathers were issued, the intention was more to injure the enemy than to let him die. This is also an order given by the rest of his life before.

At the front door, the sergeant in charge of pushing the tower and the remaining charging cart had already been killed, and any enemy troops approached the three machines were killed immediately. Near the three siege machines, a vacuum area formed by corpses was formed, and no one dared to approach it again.

The front gate of Changxiang City was once again stained red with blood. Just now in the hazy moonlight, the situation under the city could not be seen clearly. At this moment, the hills on both sides were ignited, and the raging fire illuminated the entire Changxiang City area as if it were day, and Huang Yuchen clearly saw the situation under the city.

Of the 5,000 enemy troops, about 1,000 were lying on the ground wailing, all wounded, but not dead. And around these wailing people are more corpses that are bleeding blood. In the light of the fire, the blood became even more blood-red. In front of Changxiang City, there is a hellish scene.

Huang Yuchen looked at the hellish battlefield under the city, but his mind was unusually calm. After these major battles, he looked at the battlefield and no longer had an impact on the depths of his soul as he saw it for the first time. On the contrary, Huang Yuchen's heart was as calm as water at the moment. Quickly analyze the situation in front of you.

In the distance, the enemy's phalanx did not move again, and the fire shone on the enemy's large shields and armor in the distance, reflecting a blood-red color.

The assault stopped, a senseless advance, and countless companions were killed and wounded, finally breaking the psychological defenses of the enclave sergeant, and the first sergeant threw down his weapon and ran back howling. Instantly, the second, the third, an infinite number.

On the frontal battlefield, the enemy sergeants who could still move were defeated like a mountain, and they lost the indomitable momentum they had before. They threw away their weapons and ran back as if they were dead. Maybe it's because they're not regular soldiers, or maybe they're scared by the hellish scene in front of them. All in all, the phalanx of the enemy's attack was scattered in an instant, and almost all the sergeants fled backwards in confusion.

It is worth mentioning that this enemy attack was equipped with a large number of bow and crossbow battalions, but this bow and crossbow battalion did not send out a single arrow feather, and before entering the firing range, they lost their confidence in battle, and at this moment, all of them fled.

Huang Yuchen looked at this situation and felt a little funny. The sergeant on the battlefield would be frightened by blood. He did not know that the enemy army forcibly demanded that the people go to battle, and at this moment, he did not have the slightest sympathy for these defeated enemy troops.

He didn't quite understand Yu Sheng's instructions and the sergeants around him deliberately wounding the enemy without shooting, but he thought that there might be some other arrangements for Yu Sheng, so he didn't ask.

The sergeant who fled in rout was fast, and fled back at a speed that was several times faster than the advance forward. However, the phalanx in the front row of the enemy army did not give way for their own sergeants to enter.

"Whoosh!"

There was a piercing sound of breaking through the air, and a feather of arrows suddenly shot out from the enemy formation, and rushed straight towards the sergeant who was fleeing on his side, and in an instant, he fell.

The sudden change surprised Huang Yuchen. Although the rout on the battlefield is shameful, there is really no need to continue the battle that has no chance of winning at all. Although he didn't have any sympathy for the enemy, Huang Yuchen still felt incredible when he wanted the enemy to shoot his own people mercilessly.

The first wave of fleeing enemy troops fell, and in an instant, the second and third groups of arrows were shot out of the phalanx, and the fleeing sergeants fell one by one, in pools of blood, on the grass, on the way back to their camp.

"Huh!"

The big shield sergeant in the front row suddenly turned sideways, and countless spears instantly stretched out from the phalanx, stabbing straight at the fleeing sergeant at the front.

A spear pierced the body of the fleeing sergeant. Every sergeant who died, with unwillingness and remorse on his face, dimmed for a moment.

In just a few breaths, the fleeing sergeants at the front had all been killed by the enclave sergeants, and the ones behind immediately stopped, not daring to retreat a single step back.

Huang Yuchen looked at everything in front of him, but his heart was like a storm, and he couldn't help but question the identity of the sergeant who fled in front of him. Immediately asked a centurion beside him, "What's going on?"

The centurion was sorting out his equipment, looked at the scene below casually, and said, "These people should be the people of the enclave who were forcibly dragged into battle, seeing that the city was hopeless, and wanted to flee back, but the people of the enclave did not let them escape. ”

This centurion had never seen such a forcible pull of people to the battlefield, but he still had an impression of the same situation. Generally speaking, in order to ensure the morale of the troops, the sergeants who retreat before receiving the order to retreat are considered deserters, and against the deserters, all forces and armies have only one countermeasure, kill.

Huang Yuchen was stunned when he heard this, he naturally saw that these enclave sergeants had no combat effectiveness, and originally thought that the recruit reserve had been forcibly dragged up, but now when he heard that the other party might be innocent people, his heart immediately felt like a storm.

forcibly pulling people to the battlefield to be cannon fodder is completely contrary to the belief that Huang Yuchen has always adhered to, and a nameless evil fire ignited in his heart.

"Damn!" Huang Yuchen was furious, looked at the enemy phalanx in the distance, and wished that he could fly directly over and kill all the enemy sergeants.

At this moment, the fleeing sergeant, who had no way to retreat, could only return to the battlefield again, tremblingly picked up the weapons that had been discarded by himself before, and slowly gathered in the middle of the battlefield, forming the previous phalanx, and advancing again.

However, Huang Yuchen clearly saw the despair on the faces of all the enemy soldiers, saw their inaction, and even saw the tears on the faces of many sergeants.

These sergeants are of different ages, some are young teenagers, while others have wrinkled faces. However, everyone's faces were full of despair. The phalanx slowly advanced into the range of the defending sergeants on the wall, but all the sergeants watched in, and no one attacked.

The battle has reached this point, and in the face of such an enemy army, no one can make a move. Moreover, even if they rushed under the city walls, they would not be able to do any damage to the city walls and the city of Changxiang. Their hearts have collapsed.

"Stop!" Huang Yuchen stood at the head of the city, puffed up his fighting spirit, and shouted loudly: "Stop! Don't go any further! Don't die in vain! Your death is meaningless!"

Some enemy soldiers looked up at Huang Yuchen, Huang Yuchen looked at these pairs of eyes, crystal tears filled the eyes of all enemy soldiers, his face was full of despair, but his steps did not stop at all.

Seeing this, Huang Yuchen was even more angry, snatched the bow and arrow from the hand of the sergeant beside him, pulled the bowstring, and shot an arrow at the feet of the enemy who was slowly advancing.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow feathers sank into the grass in response, and the phalanx, still advancing slowly, crossed this arrow and slowly moved forward.

"Stop! stop!" Huang Yuchen yelled, and when he learned that these people were probably the people of the enclave, he completely lost the desire to kill them.

"No matter what you've been through!

Huang Yuchen was full of fighting spirit, and his voice was very loud, which reached the ears of everyone on the battlefield. Including the enemy camp in the distance, including the advancing phalanx, and the entire battlefield at the back gate, everyone clearly heard Huang Yuchen's roar.

"Put down your weapons!

Seeing that the phalanx had not stopped, Huang Yuchen yelled again.

"Don't kill the people in the East Palace!

The sergeants defending the city, roaring in unison, the voice, deafening.

Under the city, the advancing enemy phalanx stopped.
