Chapter 111: Fu Yun's helplessness

Chen Shouyuan was very helpless, the enemy in front of him was too brave.

In his impression, the information he saw did not indicate that the demon clan would capture the city, after all, their goal was Faming Temple. Siege is such a thankless task, it is really not a good way.

Fu Yun is also helpless, although as a military advisor, he is the nominal supreme commander, but after all, when it comes to the demon queen, there are elders who act together. The real power in his hands is limited, and conquest has always been a serious matter, and the previous battles are okay, and it is not difficult to harvest the materials left by the Terran army from the battlefield and replenish supplies.

It is even certain that the Terran army deliberately left supplies behind to prevent them from looting nearby. But when they got far away from the town, the Terrans suddenly became much stronger, and nothing was left behind.

The pressure from the Council of Elders still existed, and Fu Yun had no choice but to come out and bring a detachment of teachers to find supplies. If he followed his previous strategy, instead of confronting the Terran legion, but jumped forward, he might have broken through the Li family's territory.

The battlefield is always cloudy, and I don't know if it's because the killing is too heavy or because of the depression in my heart.

Chen Shouyuan is naturally not facing the main battlefield, as the younger generation of the Chen family, his cultivation talent is not as good as Chen Shouyue, and his stability is not as good as other brothers, but after several experiences, he can still be competent as the commander of a small city.

However, who would have thought that he would face Fu Yun's personal conquest. Although it is a partial division, the two sides still have more than 10,000 men and horses, which is not a small number, and it should not be the existence of a small battle.

The only reason for this is that it is an important point of transshipment, and large quantities of supplies are transported to the front line every day.

Fu Yun's purpose is very clear, that is, to take this place, harvest enough supplies, and then go to the Council of Elders to fight with those bastards, and finally get the supreme command of the battlefield.

The berserkers who have worked so hard to get have been consumed by the bastards for nearly sixty percent. At this rate, no matter what, you won't be able to hit Faming Temple. Once they can't save the demons, the expeditionary force they have put all their efforts into will probably disappear. Then, hundreds of years of hard work will be ruined again, and the next time there will be so many soldiers, I don't know when.

At this time, it is far away from the rear, and there will be no more soldiers to replenish it, it should be said that after leaving the Huang family's territory, the demon clan has not received it again.

Sometimes, Fu Yun wondered whether these elders were thinking about the demon clan or the human race, and what they did was not weakening their own power. However, they also like to compete for power, and in this regard, those elders are more active than the other.

The two sides come and go, but the fight is not ambiguous. Although there were no large-scale siege battles, there were still thousands of soldiers consumed on this battlefield. As the defender of the city, Chen Shouyuan's losses were far less than those of the other party.

He originally only had 3,000 men and horses, which was enough to defend this small city, but later Fu Yun came here with the demon legion, and the 3,000 soldiers who supplemented the front line also retreated. In this way, he had 6,000 warriors at hand, and he was not afraid of the enemy on the other side. Looking at their momentum, there are only 10,000 people when they are full, and if they want to capture a well-defended city, they don't want to do it without more than three times as many people, not to mention that they are rich in supplies, even throwing gunpowder bullets can kill each other.

In the absence of berserkers who are not afraid of life and death, it is basically impossible for Fu Yun to break through the city, originally with more than 9,000 people thought that it would be enough, who would have thought that he would encounter 3,000 supplementary troops to return here, it is really not as good as heaven.

Strictly speaking, Chen Shouyuan is stationed in a small city, and is not on the main marching route of the demon clan, it stands to reason that their defense will not be too tight, although it is a transit station, but it is not the only one, it will not be a strict defense. Although the city wall is strong but not high, the river is abundant but not wide, and the location is remote.

But Fu Yun forgot that they were a material transfer station, at least there was no shortage of arrows, gunpowder bullets, and fierce fire oil, and they were all stored in the entire warehouse. Terran warfare has always been about life first, as for weapons and equipment, if you can smash it out, you can smash it out, anyway, there is no shortage of skilled craftsmen, and the raw materials are also abundant.

Although Fu Yun marched quickly, he was still greeted by the flame bomb, and it was on that occasion that he did not organize a large-scale siege. It's better to fight a siege than to fight a city full of fire bombs and canisters of fire and oil, rather than cutting off the heads of your own soldiers.

Chen Shouyuan's subordinates are not elite enough, they are all ordinary sergeants, but everyone can still do the matter of putting things on the stone throwing machine and throwing them out, ten cans of fierce fire oil, one gunpowder bullet, is a perfect match for defending the city, plus the bed crossbow that doesn't need money, the ladder of the Fu Yun demon clan soldiers has not been hung on the city wall.

The first time he attacked the city, he gave a falling flower and left more than a thousand corpses under the city. Fu Yun had to retreat ten miles, set up a large camp, and began to build siege equipment, and after being fully prepared, he could capture the city in one fell swoop.

But he still didn't have any confidence, in the face of monstrous firepower, even if it was a person and a siege vehicle, what could he do, it was not burned in front of the tower.

However, it is not that there is no chance, in addition to waiting for the siege equipment, he is also waiting for the weather. Gunpowder bullets and fire oil were good, but their use was greatly reduced on rainy days, so it was a good time for him to wait.

The frontal battlefield is far from being as calm as it is here. The berserkers of the demon clan who are not afraid of life and death are invincible in the end, and no matter what the legion can't do. Even the team that consumes enhanced tobacco powder will only resist for a while longer, but it will take a long time to recover. They fought one battle after another, and tens of thousands of people in Heifeng, Chen, and Huang were defeated and retreated.

Despite all the bonuses that the Terran army has, it's still a slightly inferior battle.

After repeated interceptions, the defensive line loosened again, and the fourth battle ended. After this fight, the next one will be the first sniper battle that the Li family is responsible for. To this extent, several sides are satisfied with the immediate result, and although the casualties caused to the opponent have not increased, the loss less than their own expectations is also an additional gain.

Chen Shouyuan naturally knew this, the four lines of defense were broken, and the Terran army would still "lose their armor", which was to prevent them from taking the wrong route in the next march, and the original defensive line needed to start again.

It's a strange war, and both sides can't help but follow each other's plans.

Chen Shouyuan was not in a hurry to ask for help, but he just couldn't hold on and firmly dragged the opponent's forces to achieve his goal.

The demon clan has an absolute advantage in strength, and except for the 2,000 inexperienced garrisons under his command, the rest of the men are all bloody. With a bottomless pit of ordnance, he was confident enough to complete the mission.
