For various reasons, Long Feng and Yang Tian, who had escaped a military discipline treatment, brought 5,000 iron cavalry to circle around the 'Huoyun' city, and more than a dozen cavalrymen with rough voices kept shouting: "Put down your arms, we will treat the prisoners preferentially." Or: "Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who offer will be rewarded with 100,000 yuan." ”

From time to time, cold arrows were shot down from the city, but unfortunately the archers were not skilled enough, so they had no way to take the super heavy armor that Long Feng had specially put on. This armor is said to be able to withstand hundreds of heavy axe attacks, so naturally it doesn't care about the light attacks of these arrows. As for whether these cavalrymen can have decent combat effectiveness in addition to shouting, it is no longer a matter for the commanders of the Celestial Empire to worry about. Anyway, they just want Long Feng and Yang Tian not to make any trouble, and at the same time, as long as their safety is ensured, the two of them can lead people to mess around.

Yang Tian was a little depressed and lifted the heavy helmet on his head, flicked the iron armor that was at least half an inch behind with his fingers, and grinned and complained: "I said that I took people out for a walk, and actually forced us to change into such armor." Why didn't they think that if the artillery on the city came over, wouldn't we be in big trouble?"

Long Feng couldn't even make the usual shrugging of his shoulders, so he sighed helplessly and said, "We are under the city, and the nearest range of their artillery is only three hundred zhang, so there is no way to bombard us...... But don't you think they're shooting more and more arrows?"

More than a dozen archers in red soft leather armor appeared on the city, and arrows with a faint green glow whistled towards Long Feng and Yang Tian, and the arrows slashed across the iron armor, bringing up iron filings that were at least a finger's thick.

Commander Liu behind him was shocked: "The demon archer of the Black Cloud Empire, withdraw." Pulling Yang Tian's horse reins, he ran towards the brigade, and all the soldiers also surrounded Yang Tian and galloped away. As for Long Feng, no one seems to notice his presence.

Long Feng scolded the difference in treatment, jumped off the horse, took off his helmet and armor, and stood fifty zhang outside the city wall and scolded at the soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire at the head of the city: "I said,, Lao Tzu has left a road at the gate of the city in the south, although it is not wide, but as long as you hand over your weapons from that road, and then go south honestly, we will definitely not embarrass you." ”

The soldiers at the head of the city looked at Long Feng in some surprise, and Long Feng added: "Remember, the preferential conditions are only for three days, and after three days, we will start the siege of the city. Our five million cavalry brigades have begun to harass all the cities near you, and there is no way you will have any rescuers. Don't expect your domestic army to rescue you, our 100,000 warships are already densely packed in the Yinfeng Strait, and your transport fleet will not be able to come over at all. ”

The heart of the great commander of 'Huoyun' City shrank suddenly, although he secretly discounted what Long Feng said in his heart, but the remaining strength was already able to ensure that his city really did not have any support. Looking at the pensive soldiers around him, he lowered his heart, picked up the giant bow beside him, and shot an arrow at Long Feng's front door.

Yang Tian's gloating voice came from afar: "Long Feng, don't be killed by him, you kid." ”

Long Feng snorted a few times, took out a pitch-black scroll, and threw it at the arrow that shot at the door in front of him. After a thick cloud of black smoke, a strange creature with a wolf's head, a rat's body, and bat wings appeared, bit down on the iron arrow, and ate it. Long Feng pointed at the head of the city, and the creature from the lower demon realm rushed to the head of the city with a cheer, and clawed at the soldiers above, and hundreds of soldiers fell to the head of the city in the flying blood flowers.

No one cared about continuing to shoot Long Feng, and more than a dozen demon archers avoided this rat wolf from a distance, and used all their strength to open their bows and arrows. The nearby Black Cloud Empire pawns, under the urging of the generals, rushed desperately.

The wolf's skin was almost iron, and ordinary attacks slashed aside, and only the arrows of the demon archers or the powerful weapons of high-ranking soldiers could deal enough damage to it. Feeling the severe pain, the mouse wolf pounced on the nearest group of soldiers with red eyes, stirring into the group of soldiers, and more than twenty figures flew and screamed and were thrown away. The Grand Commander of 'Huoyun' City almost went crazy, pulled out his sword, used all his strength, and turned his sword into a red lightning, piercing the sword with red flames deep into the body of the rat wolf. The rat wolf, which had lost its life, had also lost the energy to sustain its activities in this space, and its corpse and blood were swept back to the low-level demon realm.

Hundreds of high-level demon gods were suspended in the air, looking at Long Feng with extreme dissatisfaction as he pulled the reins of his horse and fled towards the brigade.

One of the demon gods who seemed to have the highest status ordered: "At this time tomorrow, bring me 100,000 rat wolf souls, and I will eat them as dessert." ”

Another complained: "We collected the souls of 80,000 human beings who died tragically, and arranged the summoning passage from the Demon Realm to this continent, and he actually summoned only one rat wolf for the first time...... It's simply an insult to our labor...... Damn, the next time I have to summon some evil spirits, spirits, or hydras or something...... Damn it......" He clenched his fist fiercely, and a black ball of light that shone with lightning appeared in his hand, ready to be thrown down towards the 'Fire Cloud' city below.

One of the people next to him quickly stopped him and scolded, "Do you want to be scolded with us? Bastard, this attack of yours is enough to destroy half the continent." ”

The highest-ranking demon god grabbed this overly impulsive kind, threw it into a pitch-black space-time channel that he had summoned, stroked his chin with evil intentions, and muttered to himself: "It's really damn, I don't want the achievements of more than ten days of hard work to be wasted like this kid...... Shall we, send a little bit of believers, and add some fun to this continent?"

All the demon gods nodded desperately and agreed, "Lord Sorens Demon God King, do whatever you say......"

Sorens laughed: "Thirteen low-level trash mages of the necromantic clan, send them to the territory of this Black Cloud Empire." "As Yang Wei's current chief manager, the most favored senior demon god at the level of the Demon God King, there is nothing he dare not do. Even if his actions caused other forces to intervene, it would only add a little spice to their boring lives.

Long Feng didn't know that his action of summoning a lowest-level demonic beast had annoyed this group of demon gods who had worked hard to set up a summoning channel for him, and they were dragging their horses and carrying hundreds of pounds of armor towards their own brigade. On the city tower in the rear, the soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire, who were embarrassed and angry, did not care about the official attack of the Celestial Empire army that might be triggered, and hundreds of artillery pieces roared angrily at the dragon wind.

The frightened Wen Yuan ordered the artillery of the Celestial Empire to retaliate. The artillery of the 'Huoyun' City, which was not very accurate, landed and exploded one after another at a distance of four miles from the city, except for dyeing Long Feng with a burst of yellow dust, but there was not much trouble. However, the new artillery of the Celestial Empire was ten miles away, causing considerable damage to the soldiers and civilians of 'Huoyun' City. If it weren't for the fact that the new shells could not be manufactured on the front line, Wen Yuan would have planned to use these artillery pieces to directly conquer the Southern Plains.

Long Feng, who returned to his camp, was surrounded by all the mages of the Western Continent as an idol. After all, summoning magic is just a legend, and it is the first time that these mages have seen people successfully summon creatures that do not belong to their own space, and they are so powerful. Although they all saw the scroll that Long Feng threw out, all of them desperately pestered Long Feng to ask for all the relevant information.

Forced to be helpless, Long Feng passed down the magic array he claimed to have depicted on the scroll found in an ancient temple with a wicked smile, and maliciously told those mages more than 5,000 words of summoning spells...... Although the effect is still there, you have to chant 5,000 words before summoning...... All the mages were overjoyed, but they were a little distressed.

As for those directly under Wen Yuan, the warlocks from the Great Black Heaven Protector Divine Sect of the Celestial Empire also secretly asked the mages who were good for them about the relevant details in order to strengthen the power of their own divine arts.

Inadvertently, the entire camp of the Celestial Empire flickered everywhere, muttering strange spells everywhere, mages and warlocks with cross-eyed eyes, and everywhere there were the most low-level strange demon creatures infested, or yellow turban wrestlers, dragon descending Arhats, etc., descending from the sky with golden and blue light. The mage leader of 'Huoyun' City and his subordinates trembled and set up a magic array on the head of the city, lest the Celestial Empire army would not keep the three-day promise and use spells to attack directly.

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

Wen Yuan, who was dealing with the military plane, and a group of senior generals smiled bitterly and listened to the secret agent's report on the abnormal situation in the camp now: by now, hundreds of rat wolves scurrying around had devoured more than 5,000 excellent special goose feather knives, and if it weren't for the soldiers' desperate efforts to stop them, their appetite would have moved to those cannons.

Shaking his head, Wen Yuan ordered: "All mages, it is strictly forbidden to perform tricks in the camp, violators ...... Violators...... Offenders will have their annual salary deducted. ”

Then, several faint black smoke suddenly appeared inside the big tent, gathering into five strange men dressed in tight black.

The leader replied in a hoarse voice: "Two hundred and seventy-one people have escaped through the passage we have deliberately left, and there is no pursuit in the city. ”

Wen Yuan frowned and asked in a low voice, "Where are those soldiers who escaped?"

The leader shook his head slightly and said, "We need to wait for the return of others." ”

At this moment, three figures appeared with a full body of evil energy, and the first one replied in an unusually satisfied tone: "Two hundred and seventy-one, two hundred people fled to their military headquarters in the south, and seventy-one people fled to the four nearby cities. We've killed them all, and none of them have slipped through the net. ”

Wen Yuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, don't let go of these small troops." It is estimated that their commanders would not have the courage to risk letting a large number of sergeants leave for help. Hmph, hmph, how long can our grain and grass last?"

Qi Zhantian immediately reported: "Our grain and grass can last for two months. With the addition of wild beasts caught nearby, you can eat for an extra seven days. Do you need to use Rangers to gather forage?"

Wen Yuan thought about it for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, we will spend a month to build the 'Fire Cloud' City, and the grain and grass in it will be enough for us to spend a year." There is no need to disturb the people, and there is no need to increase unnecessary resistance. ”

One of the generals shook his head and said, "It's a pity, if the 'Fire Cloud' City is just a military fortress, our five days of hard work will be enough to destroy him." It's a pity, it's a pity......"

Wen Yuan said lightly: "Give them a month's effort, if they don't surrender after a month, even those millions of people will be killed...... However, this propaganda will not be until twenty-five days later, when they will be given an ultimatum. Let everyone in the Southern Plains know that the Celestial Empire does not kill the people, but the Celestial Empire only loves the obedient people...... Dare to defy the heavenly soldiers, and there is no mercy for killing. ”

The generals bowed, and seeing that Wen Yuan didn't have any more instructions, they walked out one after another.

Long Feng followed them out of the tent...... Long Feng, who is already familiar with the art of demon transformation and concealment, is completely a monster according to Finse, so he naturally does not have to worry about being discovered by these people who are only skilled in martial arts. Probably no one will pay attention to the breeze that rises when the tent's wind shield is lifted, right?

×××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

Yang Tian listened carefully to the news that Long Feng heard, and kept clapping his hands and shouting: "Gao Ming, Gao Ming." Surround but not fight, let the people understand that the Celestial Empire army is not a brutal army. Three days later, although the city was attacked, it was not broken, and at the same time, it cooperated with propaganda to make the people feel civil strife, so that everyone in the world knew that the Celestial Empire was indeed benevolent and righteous. As for the final slaughter of the whole city, it is to make the other people look nervous, and they dare not cooperate with the Black Cloud Empire to resist with all their might, and after pacifying the Southern Plains, they are not afraid of these people rebelling, right?"

Long Feng slapped him on the head and scolded: "Gao Ming, Gao Ming's ass...... If I let the people in my previous team who were dedicated to buying people's hearts and minds plan to ensure that those ordinary people take the initiative to besiege the soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire and sacrifice the city. Where can it be said to be clever? It's nothing more than a slap in the face and a candy to eat. ”

Yang Tian didn't bother to ask Long Feng what kind of army his previous team was, and simply asked, "So, how do you say to deal with these people?"

Long Feng said lazily: "Singles, before the arrival of the army, first set up camp a hundred miles outside the city, and then ordered the people to leave the city, leaving only the officers and soldiers, saying that they could not bear to affect the ordinary people and asked the people to leave as soon as possible." Ten days later, they will attack the city with all their might, and they will say that whoever does not leave will be regarded as an enemy against the Celestial Empire......"

Yang Tian asked: "What if the army does not allow the people to leave?"

Long Feng snorted coldly, began to unfold the quilt on his bunk, and asked: "If the army defending the city does not allow the people to leave, it is completely possible to excuse themselves afterwards and say that they do not know that there are people in the city......; Reinforcements, do you estimate that once our millions of troops are dispatched, how many reinforcements will there be? Even if hundreds of thousands of reinforcements arrive, as long as new firearms are dispatched, what use will they have?"

Yang Tian was silent, and said for a long time: "Also, if there are no people in the city, as long as they bombard with artillery with all their might, this city will not be able to hold it." But why did Wen Yuan besiege the city in such a hurry? Although there was a passage left at the southern gate, who would dare to escape through it? Who would be able to escape from the city?"

Long Feng took off his clothes, got into the quilt, stretched his waist, closed his eyes and said, "Wen Yuan, he can't help it...... The first one, the emperor of the Celestial Empire, Lao'er, urged him very much. Second, if we don't find a foothold before the winter, will all the troops run out of food and die?"

Yang Tian shook his head: "The warmth of the Southern Continent is warm, and it also needs a place to spend the winter. ”

Long Feng mumbled and said, "Isn't this it." Before the winter comes, get a place to spend the winter, fatten the military horses, and at the same time let the enemy troops in the southern continent get used to the fact that the Celestial Empire actually occupies the 'Fire Cloud' city, and wait until the winter is over, and then march quickly, how can the defenders of the Black Cloud Empire, who have consumed most of the grain and grass, be able to hold it?"

Gnu asked stupidly: "You have thought of it a long time ago? Then why did you still tell us that Wen Yuan's plan did not conform to the 'blitzkrieg' battle? So, Wen Yuan didn't have the idea of a quick attack at all." ”

Yang Tian glanced at him and whispered, "I guess he also thought of it just now......"

Long Feng suddenly snorted coldly, and then continued to snore. Yang Tian shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of blowing the lamp to sleep at Gnu.

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

The three-day preferential time was almost up, and the 'Huoyun' City, which had not had any news for a long time, couldn't hold its breath, and a team of about 1,000 people suddenly rushed out of the city gate and ran towards the passage left by the southern camp more than two zhang wide and more than thirty miles long. They were all wearing tattered armor, carrying notched weapons, and shooting a few arrows at the head of the city, which was symbolic of their surnames, bluffing after the deserters or something, and there was no movement.

One of the tall Black Cloud Empire soldiers in the lead shouted, "We surrender, surrender, don't shoot arrows...... We're here to surrender. The other soldiers began to take off their armor and boots halfway through, and prepared to hand over their weapons to the Celestial Empire soldiers along the passageway.

A gloomy general of the first rank of the tiger horse ordered in a cold voice: "Shoot." ”

Tens of thousands of crossbows flew out, and the soldiers were stunned to see the sudden extra iron bars on their bodies, and they fell to the ground crookedly. Only the one who was in front drew his sword and slashed hundreds of powerful crossbows that greeted him, and roared angrily: "We have specially escaped and surrendered, what are you...... You people of the Celestial Empire do not keep your promises. ”

The general who gave the order replied coldly: "Three days have passed, and you have no chance of surrendering." The flat tone was mixed with strong internal strength, and the Yangtze River surged away like waves, shaking the good hand who had cut hundreds of crossbows so that his face turned red, staggered back a few steps, and quickly ran back towards the city gate.

The soldiers of the Celestial Empire laughed: "Black Cloud Boys, fake surrender, don't you still know when you are still old?"

The even more arrogant soldiers shouted: "If you really surrender, you will wear the best armor and weapons and give them to the uncle, who may be soft-hearted and let you walk, hahahahaha......"

A gap opened slightly at the south gate of the 'Fire Cloud' city, allowing the Black Cloud soldier, who had suffered some internal injuries, to flash into the city. At the same time, the war drums 'rumbled', and ten phalanxes in each direction, each phalanx was 10,000 infantry, slowly pressing towards the 'Huoyun' city. A special Longxiang general stationed at a place three miles away from the city, said loudly: "From now on, this dynasty will only accept the surrender of the 'Huoyun' city, and all sporadic deserters will be killed. "The sound of participating in the strong internal strength spread throughout the battlefield, and the soldiers of the Celestial Empire shouted 'heh, he'.

On the head of the 'Fire Cloud' city, the black cannon muzzles and countless archers were exposed, and all the soldiers nervously looked at the approaching Celestial Empire siege brigade.

The Celestial Empire army gradually approached the city wall, and the ordinary artillery, catapults, and archers on both sides were simultaneously powerful, and the magicians mixed in the ranks of soldiers also desperately unleashed their most powerful attack spells. Whistling cannonballs, boulders, bows and arrows, or colorful balls of magical energy, greeted their brothers in the air, crossed side by side, and threw their death-laden bodies at the opposing soldiers with cheers.

A salvo caused the Celestial Empire's siege brigade to lose tens of thousands of people, and the defenders of many sections of the 'Fire Cloud' city were also wiped out.

Long Feng, who had brought people and horses to watch the battle in the rear, said to Yang Tian depressedly: "Although there are advanced weapons, the combat concept still exists in the old style of one side attacking the city and defending the city on the other side, so there is no way to give full play to the power of the new weapon. ”

Yang Tian looked at the new artillery team of the Celestial Empire in the distance, nodded helplessly and said, "The enemy defenders and civilians are mixed together, and there is no way to carry out large-scale artillery bombardment." ”

Long Feng shook his head and said, "Are these twenty or so artillery pieces a large-scale shelling......?" It's too pediatric...... In fact, if you take into account the harm to the people, then it is also a sadness that this kind of artillery appears in the current era of high walls and fortifications. ”

Yang Tiancha opened his mouth and said: "It's strange, didn't you say that when attacking the city, you should leave one aspect behind, so that the other party doesn't fight hard? Why are we attacking from all sides now, and there is no gap at all?"

Long Feng flicked his fingers and said nonchalantly: "The dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and it also depends on the strength of the person who beats the dog and the dog." Even if the 'Fire Cloud' City is desperate, it can't fight many Celestial Empire soldiers. How many cannonballs and bows do you think they will have in the city? Don't you think it's ridiculous to be careful for the sake of a mouse?"

Yang Tian licked his lips: "I hope that even if the 'Huoyun' City is not a mouse, it will be like a rabbit and give the Celestial Empire a good ...... to kick two feet";
