Four hundred and seventeenth chapter fire suppression

The battle continues.

The attack that broke out at the top of Tianyuan City did not make the soldiers of the Qingyang Empire flinch. Even though the number of soldiers who were killed and injured was countless for a while, more people were struggling to rush forward.

They know that only if they run faster and faster can they survive the rain of falling rocks and arrows.

Back off?

After going through the test of blood and fire, how could these soldiers think about it like this? In their eyes, they would either be torn to pieces by the enemy, or they would rush forward and tear the enemy to pieces!

Even if some of them want to retreat, is it possible?

What will be the result if you retreat without permission from your commander on the battlefield?

It’s also a word for death!

In addition, he will be known as a deserter for the rest of his life. Even if he does not die, he will be unable to hold his head high for the rest of his life, and may even harm his family.

Why be a soldier?

Isn’t it just to give your family a better life?

It's a matter of death, so why not fight, why not fight?

If you die, a settlement allowance will be given to your family. If you don't die, this is a great achievement and can ensure that the family will have no worries about food and clothing.

Master Zheng said that after they completely capture the province of Nantes, all the soldiers who participated in the battle will be rewarded based on their merits, and they will be given huge rewards three times the size of their merits!

As long as you do this job, you will probably have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life!

The soldiers have naturally discussed this in private. Many of them are even preparing to finish this battle. After receiving the rewards promised by Lord Zheng, they will disband and return to their fields. They will stay away from this kind of bloody life and live a peaceful and stable life.

.

So, rush!

So, kill!

"Brothers, work harder, rush in and tear these bastards apart and avenge your brothers!"

Some people raised their arms and shouted with blood on their faces, while others gritted their teeth and buried their heads and just rushed forward. Some even had blood-red eyes. They just held their shields high in front of them and ignored them, roaring crazily while facing the fierce rain of arrows.

He angrily threw the steel knife in his hand towards the city.

Regardless of whether you can get hit or not, when someone presses you and hits you like this, you still want to fight back.

The artillery fire continues.

Tianyuan City has been preparing for this for a long time. Naturally, it will not be over with just one or two rounds of stoning. Ouyang Lixing, who is very experienced, even made an interval. He organized the trebuchets into three teams. The first team finished the attack.

Go up to the second team. After the second team fires, the third team takes over. When the third team also fires, the ammunition of the first team has been loaded. In this way, Tianyuan City only needs to have enough stone reserves on the city.

The trebuchet units can connect almost seamlessly and continuously cause damage to enemies outside the city.

In addition, when the troops of the Qingyang Empire rushed into the strike range of the archers despite the rain of falling rocks, sharp arrows like locusts also poured down like rain, covering the sky and the sun, as if a

Large dark clouds drifted in, and even my vision became much darker when I was under the clouds.

For a time, under the double blow of stones and arrows, the 100,000 soldiers sent by Zheng Yuanyun to lead the battle seemed to be in a living hell. There were very few soldiers who could actually break through the dense coverage and attack. It was said that they were almost non-existent.

Not one thing is too much.

Watching this scene, even with Zheng Yuanyun's cold heart, he couldn't help but look a little ugly now.

It's not that he can't accept the loss of these 100,000 troops. In fact, he sent out 100,000 troops as a test. He wanted to test the reality of Tianyuan City.

This time, Zheng Yuanyun felt like he had kicked an iron plate, which made him dizzy.

Tianyuan City not only looks like a piece of stone, in fact, it is really a piece of stone, and it is not fake at all.

How many troops did Ouyang Lixing deploy in Tianyuan City?

Because the newly reinforced city wall was blocking the front, Zheng Yuanyun could not see very clearly. But judging from the number of trebuchets and the intensity of the arrow rain, Zheng Yuanyun, who was also extremely experienced, also had his own

guess.

I'm afraid there are at least 500,000 troops!

If they didn't have so many troops, how could they have made the trebuchets connect almost seamlessly, and how could even the rain of arrows in the sky have a layered effect? ​​At first glance, there were at least two brigades of archers.

Taking turns to draw the bow and draw the arrow?

And this is just on top of the city.

As the commander of the city defense, Zheng Yuanyun believed that Ouyang Lixing had no common sense at all. He could not put all his troops on the city to fight just this wave. He must at least have another army of the same number.

The troops were rotated under the city. Otherwise, with such high-intensity fighting, the soldiers would not be able to sustain it for too long and would be exhausted.

Not to mention being exhausted to the point where you can't even lift a knife, at least it's impossible to maintain such an intense output rhythm. Then, it is obviously inappropriate to make such a physically demanding move when you know that there are still a large number of troops on your side who have not yet taken the field.

Unwise.

So, Ouyang Li Xing deployed more than one million troops at this city gate alone?

What about the other two city gates?

This is not Xilong City, because there is a natural moat as a barrier, so Ning Zhenggang was a little neglectful about the defense of the other three city gates at that time.

Of course, this was also due to the lack of troops at the time.

And how many troops does Ouyang Lixing have?

Two to three million!

Zheng Yuanyun knew this number. It was not just based on Xiao Du's inference from the marching traces left by the other party at that time, but combined with this, there was another thing.

Ouyang Lixing had a battle with Yan Haomiao on the border line in front of Dongping City. The amount of troops invested by both sides in that battle was probably this amount.

As for whether Ouyang Lixing brought all the troops at that time, it is difficult to say, but when marching and fighting, you must always prepare for the worst.

Therefore, if Zheng Yuanyun assumes that Ouyang Lixing has nearly three million troops, then once he gets aggressive and deploys all his troops in Tianyuan City, the other two city gates will also be impregnable.

But, is it possible?

Is it possible that he just decided to fight to the death here regardless of the two cities behind him?

This is too courageous!

Zheng Yuanyun frowned, but did not take back the order to attack. While looking at the artillery fire pouring down from the top of Tianyuan City, he thought to himself, starting from the worst plan, to deduce what Ouyang Lixing was doing at this time.

strategic deployment.

But no matter what he thought, he still thought that Ouyang Lixing would not take such a big risk.

This person had carefully collected intelligence and knew that the other party always focused on the overall situation when using troops. According to the collected military records of the other party, there was no attempt to use troops dangerously.
