"Oh? What new happened?" Jessica asked slightly surprised.

"This war this year was strange from the beginning, and the Jie Peng army was very prepared. In the past, their offensive lasted for up to one month, and they would retreat due to the exhaustion of food and siege equipment. After all, most of the places in Jie Peng were deserted, and their assets were very insufficient. Otherwise, they would not have been attacking us Baisus. Their purpose was to occupy our plains. However, unlike previous wars, the Jie Peng army's food and siege materials seemed to be continuous. Now their strength has increased from 400,000 at the beginning of the war to eight.

One hundred thousand, and the war has lasted for two months, and there are no signs of retreating. We are worried that if we continue to fight like this, we are afraid that it will not be Jepeng, but us. Because the arrows, rolling stones, wood, turtle oil and other defending materials stored in Reynolds have dropped to a dangerous situation. Although the domestic production is already full, since Jepeng is attacking every day, the replenishment materials have not been consumed yet. It is estimated that it will take not long, and I am afraid that there will be big trouble in the Thunder Hammer Fortress!" The veteran expressed his concerns.

"Yes! And as we understand, Jepen has basically concentrated all the troops in the country on our front line. At the border of Is and Tianfeng Empire, there are only tens of thousands of border guards responsible for capturing smuggling merchants. There are only city guards in major cities in China. It seems that they are not worried at all that anyone will attack them." Oberdin, the commander of the Eastern Legion, also echoed. He was also puzzled by this.

"No need to say about Is. Is is now the Prince of Wales who seized power. His wife is a Jepeng native. He has been a pro-Jipeng policy for a long time. Of course, Jepeng doesn't have to stay in the Is border. But wasn't the relationship between Tianfeng Empire and Japeng in the past not very good? I remember that when Japeng attacked three years ago, two legions were left on the border of Tianfeng Empire. None of them are left behind now?" Jessica asked in confusion.

"Your Highness, this matter is indeed very strange. I even suspect that the Tianfeng Empire is secretly supporting Jepeng behind his back." Bill said solemnly.

"Ah? Is there such a thing? Do you have any evidence?" Jessica's pretty face changed. If the Tianfeng Empire was supporting Jeppen, Baissus would probably be in danger.

"Yes! After learning that Jie Peng had all the troops close to the border of the Tianfeng Empire to the front line of Thunder Hammer, I specifically interrogated Jie Peng's prisoners of war and found out that their food and combat supplies were transported from the south." Bick said seriously.

"Southern?" Jessica blinked a few times, and said, "Although the south of Japeng is not a desert, it is also a Gobi wilderness. The only place where people can live is just a few oasis. I'm afraid there won't be much food produced there."

"Yes! So, if their food and supplies were transported from the south, it could only be from the Tianfeng Empire south of Jappen." Bill said.

Jessica frowned slightly after hearing this, and raised her eyebrows and said, "That means that the Tianfeng Empire has given up the policy of maintaining neutrality between us and Jesseng and started to support Jesseng. However, doing so is actually a very unfavorable thing for them, and I can't figure out why they did this."

After hearing this, everyone was confused because they couldn't understand why the Tianfeng Empire suddenly changed its policies. Logically speaking, when Jie Peng approached the Tianfeng Empire, his strength poses a greater threat to the Tianfeng Empire.

"Let's put aside this matter for the time being. Whether the Tianfeng Empire has begun to secretly support Jepeng, naturally there will be Lord Buffon to find a way to collect information. Lord Bill, you can take me to the Thor's Hammer Fortress tomorrow." Jessica said.

"OK!"

The next day, Jessica followed Bill and went up to the tower of Thunder Hammer Fortress. Looking at the black Jay Peng army formation under the fortress, she was slightly frightened. After all, it was the first time she participated in such a large-scale battle: under the city wall, there were a whole army of Jay Peng, and on the city wall was half of Baissus's southern legion of 50,000. There were a total of 150,000 people on both sides, all quietly watching the other side. However, Jessica's solemn expression on the face of the Baissus soldiers could see that the siege that was about to begin was not an easy battle.

"Woo-Woo-Woo-" With the sound of low horns, Jie Pengjun began to move and launch an attack.

The Jie Peng Dao Shield soldiers with three square formations, with about 30,000 people slowly moved forward in neatly and steadily to stand outside the range of bows and arrows 150 meters away from the city wall. Between the square formations, four high arrow towers and two siege collisions stood.

Bill sighed and said, "They went out to crash this time. It seems that they are going to hit our city gate. It is estimated that today will be a fierce battle."

The Baisus soldiers guarding the city had been through a long battle formation. Without Bill's instructions, they had already pushed the crossbows and catapults onto the city wall and began to bombard the phalanx of Jie Peng's army.

The Seventh Legion was the Seventh Legion, and the commander of the Legion Theodore, the soldiers of the Jie Peng army rushed towards the city wall like a tide. At the same time, the catapults under the city also began to fight back. The arrow tower and siege cars also began to move towards the city wall.

"Note! All the crossbows and catapults focus on attacking the enemy's arrow towers and siege cars!" Bill ordered.

The catapults on the city wall began to shift their targets and threw huge rocks at the arrow tower and siege cars of the Jie Peng army. In the previous battles, the Jie Peng army also dispatched the arrow tower. They were condescending and used bows and arrows to kill the Baisus soldiers on the city wall. Later, whenever the Baisus army saw the arrow tower appear, all the catapults and crossbows would give priority to attack the arrow tower.

After a long battle, the Baissus's catapult troops' eyesight and catapult accuracy have been greatly improved, and several stones hit the first arrow tower.

But the arrow tower just shook for a while, but it was not destroyed.

The generals of Baisus on the city wall were all very surprised. When they looked closely, they found that the arrow tower was actually covered with a thick layer of iron, which greatly increased the strength of the arrow tower and completely failed the rocket.

There was originally a moat and three trenches outside the fortress, but after so many days of fighting, it had been filled by the Jie Peng army. The four arrow towers continued to slowly move towards the city wall and entered the range of the bow and arrow.

"Swoosh-swoosh-swoosh!" The Japon archer on the arrow tower and the Baisus archer on the city wall began to shoot at each other.

"Your Highness Princess! Go into the city tower quickly! It's too dangerous on the city wall." Bill quickly pulled Jessica and hid in the city tower behind the bunker.

The battle situation was very fierce outside the fortress.

After nearly two hours of repeated battles, the Japeng army and the Baissus army still struggled, and both sides suffered casualties.

However, the difference this time is that the casualties of the Baisus army are obviously much greater than the previous few times. The main reason is that Jessus used an improved archer tower, which can effectively resist Baissus' throwing. On the archer tower and the city wall, the Jassus' archers on the archer tower are obviously much more advantageous. They are condescending, and they are all wearing heavy armor that only heavy infantry and heavy cavalry can wear. Even if they are shot by Baissus' archers, they will not be injured. Baissus' heavy armor is for the infantry guarding the city. The archers are all wearing leather armor, and they can be shot with a single arrow by the long archer.

After only two hours of the battle, Baissus's archers lost more than 500, and some casualties, the total casualties were nearly a thousand, while the Jie Peng army only had more than one thousand casualties. The casualties ratio of this offensive and defensive city was too close.

"No! We must find a way to destroy the enemy's arrow tower, otherwise if we continue like this, our archers will be killed or killed in a few days." Bill's expression changed after looking at the situation on the battlefield.

"Commander, I will lead my cavalry out of the city to destroy the enemy's arrow tower!" A general immediately spoke.

When Bill saw that it was Andrey, the commander of the Eastern Legion Cavalry Division.

"Okay! Be careful, if you go out of the city and destroy the enemy's arrow tower, come back immediately, don't fight." Bill thought for a while, and had to nod and agree.

Soon, the city gate opened, and Andrei led 10,000 cavalry out of the city. The first thing they encountered was the two enemy siege cars.

"Kill!" Baissus's cavalry shouted.

The enemy infantry following the siege cart was defeated soon after the heavy cavalry attacked them.

"Hurry! Light these siege cars on fire! Then attack the arrow tower immediately!" Andre ordered.

Immediately, two teams of cavalry stepped forward, took out the turbulent oil contained in the bag, poured it on the siege car, and then lit it with a fire broke out. The two siege cars suddenly started to burn a raging fire.

"Legislative Commander! The enemy has dispatched cavalry!" The messenger of Jie Peng's army hurriedly reported to Theodore behind the formation.

"Hehe, this was long as the marshal expected. Send our heavy cavalry to see if their cavalry is powerful or our cavalry is powerful!" Theodore looked confident.

Soon, a large group of cavalry rushed up from behind the infantry of the Jepeng army, and their total strength was significantly greater than that of Baisus. They all held scimitars and shouted at Baisus' cavalry.

Andrey had just led his cavalry to overturn an arrow tower with a hook, but when he saw the enemy cavalry coming over, his heart suddenly became tight.

"Barov, you lead half of your troops to continue to destroy the enemy's arrow tower! I lead the other half to drag the enemy's cavalry!" Andrey immediately said.

Soon, two elite cavalry collided fiercely.
Chapter completed!
