The carriage of the Southern Immortals is located in the phalanx of the light cavalry of the siege army. The periphery of the light cavalry was a phalanx www.biquge.info of light infantry wearing soft armor and armed with guns and sabers. These infantry did not have siege weapons such as ladders in their hands, and they must have been reinforcements for the siege vanguard.

Cheng Ziming looked into the distance again, and saw that the Southern Army troops at the back were ordinary soldiers who were not wearing armor but only wearing military uniforms. Most of these soldiers did not wear blades, but carried shovels, sledgehammers, rice pots and other utensils. There were also many sergeants pushing carts, pulling wagons, leading horses, and some sergeants even pulling some cattle and sheep and other livestock. Depending on the situation, the last troops should be the personnel of logistics supply.

It can be seen that Nanguo has put on a typical siege formation.

At the forefront, heavy infantry and light infantry formed the siege vanguard. The heavy armor on the heavy infantry and the shields in their hands can effectively block the rain of arrows from the city walls. The light infantry was responsible for storming the walls with ladders, rammers, and ramming.

The middle of the second row is the general who supervises the battle and the reserve light infantry who are ready to support at any time.

The most central king of the south, the supreme commander, is naturally guarded by the most powerful heavy armored cavalry. On both sides of the heavy cavalry, there are light cavalry that can bend bows and shoot arrows, among which the immortal flag of the southern kingdom and the chariot and horse of the southern immortal are located in the phalanx of the light cavalry.

Cheng Ziming once heard that only Youzhou, Bingzhou and Liangzhou are rich in horses in Kyushu, while horses are not produced in Nanguo. The reason why Nanguo was able to form so many cavalry this time was probably because he was secretly funded by the King of You. It is said that above the East China Sea, there was a sea trade route, which, together with Youzhou and Yangzhou, could transport horses from Youguo to the south by large ships.

Rare things are expensive, and horses are not produced in the south, and war horses are naturally scarce. This king of the south is also extremely fond of horses. After getting the horses sent by Youguo, he proudly expanded the heavy armored cavalry and put it around him for protection.

Of course, the number of horses transported from Youzhou is limited after all. Therefore, the cavalry of the southern army is still a minority, and the largest number is the infantry that the southern army has always relied on.

In addition to the cavalry, the outermost flanks of the left and right flanks of the men and horses in the middle are the light armored infantry that supports the siege vanguard. Although these infantry are located in the middle lane, they can be used at any time from the top of the flank to reinforce the siege vanguard in the first echelon.

At the back of all the men and horses were the logisticians without armed armor and blades. Because the southern army had just arrived in Fengye, the king of the south was preparing to attack the city, so the whole army had no intention of camping outside the city. Naturally, these logistics units are on standby waiting for the end of the war.

This is the enemy formation facing the south gate of Scotia. The southern army besieging the north gate of Fengye and the east and west gates laid out a formation similar to this. It's just that there is no king of the south in charge, and there is no immortal from the south to help him, so there is no cavalry camp in the phalanx in the second row.

According to the herald soldiers, the first row of the besieging southern army of the remaining three gates was also charged heavy infantry and light armored infantry besieging the city. The second platoon, on the other hand, was all light infantry reinforced in the future. As for the replenishment logistics personnel, they were all concentrated on the side of the south gate, and they were at the back of all the southern troops.

This is probably the standard layout of all siege strategies in this mortal world.

In a short period of time, Cheng Ziming made a rough understanding of the formation of the southern country. In his heart, he secretly made an assessment of the strength of the Southern Army. He thought to himself: If it weren't for Le Liang inviting his own immortal cultivator to help, I'm afraid that Fengye's loss would be a foregone conclusion. After all, with the strength of the Fengye defenders, it was difficult to resist the siege of the forty-fold army.

In this era of only fighting swords, the advantage in the number of people and horses is absolutely difficult to resist. What's more, the lonely city is difficult to defend, and the supply of soldiers and people is a difficult problem.

And now, with the addition of two immortal cultivators, the decisive battle period is only limited to three days, which really gives the Fengye defenders a chance to fight. As for the outcome, it will depend on the next battle.

At this time, the southern general riding a black horse rode his horse to the front of the battle, and shouted loudly: "The defenders of Fengye obey the order, and the army of our southern country has gone north, and Fengye has been surrounded by water. The army is about to attack the city from all sides, and it will be able to conquer the city gate and destroy the defenders of your Yu Kingdom in an instant.

The king of the south is benevolent, does not want to see the lives in misery, specially issued an amnesty decree, as long as the defenders out of the city to surrender, our army to promise to treat the people of the city well, the surrender of the Cheng sergeant each issued five taels of silver as a reward, the surrender of the general is to add officials to the knighthood, the reward is profound.

If you don't obey the orders of my king of the south, dare to resist my lion entering the city. Then when the army conquered the city gates, the people of the city were used as laborers, and the women and children were brought back to the south, and all the soldiers who resisted were killed.

For the sake of the safety of the people and themselves, I will give you a stick of incense, and hurry up and surrender!"

After saying a few words, the southern general grabbed the reins, held his head high, and quietly waited for an answer.

Cheng Ziming held the battlement with his hand and looked coldly at the southern general on a black horse. He was a helper invited by the Yuguo army, and this kind of thing to negotiate with the enemy army was naturally handed over to the Fengye defenders. Anyway, with Yu Zhen's temperament, he would definitely not accept such conditions as the Southern Army and surrender.

Behind him, Peng Ju stepped forward and came to Cheng Ziming's side, he took a deep breath and shouted out a word with all his might: "Get out!"

The general on the black horse stiffened his face, squinted his eyes and glanced at Peng Ju fiercely, then slowly raised his arm and shouted loudly: "The whole army obeys the order, beat the drums!"

At the sound of an order, the war drums in the southern army sounded in unison, and the heavy infantry at the front, holding shields, approached the city wall step by step. And the light infantry after the hoplites followed. Except for a row of heavy infantry in heavy armor at the head of the line, the next five rows of sergeants, all between two teams of heavy infantry, sandwiched between a group of light infantry, heavily armored infantry, shields and bodies cover their comrades in soft armor in the middle.

And in the middle of the vanguard, two teams of heavy infantry escorted a crashing car, and slowly drove towards the gate of the car. At the same time as the collision, they were approaching the city wall, and there were also one or two rushing cars from the Southern Army. The soldiers on the top and the remaining floors of the rushing cart were shielded in front of them, ready to deal with the bows and arrows of the city.

As soon as the war drums sounded at the south gate, the sound of war drums was also heard in the east and west directions of Fengye. Soon the herald came to report that the remaining three gates of Fengye were attacked by the southern army at the same time.

Peng Ju kept giving orders to organize the soldiers on the city wall to defend the city, and the soldiers who gave the order rushed along the city wall one by one, and rushed away one by one. Bows and arrows rained down from above the city.
