Dingyuan City, this is the border of the Cloudrise Empire Tagor, the most important border town under the Chuyun Empire, with 20,000 troops stationed.
But this sturdy border city began to be in danger after facing the pressure of a hundred thousand Snake-People troops.
In the Snake-People army, two thousand elite Snake-Peoples wearing Scarlet Armors advanced slowly. The Long Spears they held high were like woods, and on the tip of their spears with cold light, there were Human Race heads dripping with blood, like the fiery red fruits produced by the woods.
The leader of the Flame Snake Tribe and Yan Ci of Dou Wang cultivation stood at the front, also holding a ferocious human head in their hands.
He looked up at Anyuan City's head, grinned, threw the head up in his hand, and shouted:
"Lin Qu, my Snake-People army is approaching, why don't you surrender? Do you want to be like your subordinate Commandant and have my head chopped off?"
On top of the city, Chuyun Empire Mighty General Who Guards the Northwest and Dou Wang expert Lin Qu, who had slightly white temples, took the heads thrown at them. When they lowered their heads, they saw that it was indeed the Commandant he had sent out. His expression changed and he shouted angrily:
"Chen Qi, you actually surrendered to a foreign race and tricked my army into leaving the city. You really deserve death. I... I misjudged you!"
Behind the big tent, Snake-People Central Army, I turned my head and looked at Wu Yan standing aside. His face suddenly turned pale, he also looked at me, and begged:
"Heir Apparent, I have already followed Your Highness's instructions. Your Highness must save my life."
I nodded, looked at Anyuan City in the distance, and said, "Of course, if Lin Qu doesn't surrender, he will die here!"
But will Lin Qu surrender?
"How could I, my majestic Crowned Humanity, descend to these two-legged snakes with scales like you?"
Lin Qu stood at the top of the city, wearing Black Armor, glaring at Yan Ci with piercing eyes, pointing Long Spear in his hand directly at the sky, and shouted:
"Cloudrise Empire son, follow me to protect our home and country, follow me to guard this city, follow me... to die!"
There are legless snakes and four-legged snakes. Snake-People Tribe has two hands, so in the mouth of some careless people, it becomes a two-legged snake.
Hearing such insults from Lin Qu, Yan Ci's face turned red. He suddenly pulled out his sword, slashed it hard at Anyuan City in front, and shouted:
"Siege the city!"
Although Snake-People Tribe has a snake tail, it is no different from Human Race. It is highly civilized. The so-called lack of siege equipment is just an excuse.
At this time, Yan Ci gave an order, and the entire 100,000 Snake-People army, including 10,000 people, began to approach Anyuan City.
The first ones to launch were Dragon Hunting Crossbow and Catapult. Countless Dragon Hunting Crossbow arrows and boulders fell towards Anyuan City's head. Amidst the loud roar, the bricks on the city head shattered.
After the 10,000 Snake-People siege troops approached Anyuan City, it was Dragon Slayer Crossbow and Bow and Arrows. Arrows rained down from the sky, and the war became bloody.
The Anyuan defenders were not left behind and also began to counterattack with long-range weapons.
The Snake-People siege army faced Heavy Shield one after another, and in the rain of arrows, destroyed and filled up the ravines, Abatis, Cheval-de-frise, Wooden Stakes and other defenses in front of Anyuan City one by one.
This is what the so-called "gully fillers" are like.
After about an hour, the defenses under Anyuan City were finally swept away. The price Snake-People Tribe paid was two thousand casualties. The bodies fell to the ground and blood began to flow.
I couldn't help but frown. The siege was really not that big. I tried so hard to trick two thousand Anyuan defenders into killing them. And some of the dead things under the city actually caused the same battle damage...
Suddenly a crisp Rallying Gong sounded on the battlefield, which was Snake-People Tribe starting to withdraw its troops, but of course it was not that the entire army retreated.
The Snake-People army, which took the lead in attacking the city and still had more than 8,000 people left, began to move to the east, then retreated in a roundabout way.
In the Snake-People camp, another 20,000 Snake-People troops began to advance, taking over the positions of the more than 8,000 Snake-People and continuing the attack.
I am now in a Corner Tower camp in the Snake-People camp, looking down at the battlefield ahead, admiring the military discipline of Snake-People in my heart, and at the same time I am sure that this 100,000 Snake-People army is definitely not commanded by Yan Ci.
Because the handover of 20,000 Snake-People and 8,000 Snake-People was completed extremely well!
More than 8,000 Snake-People had just evacuated, and the front of the Anyuan City wall was vacated, and 20,000 Snake-People were added to make up for it, without giving the Anyuan defenders any time to breathe!
This is not just a few people, but involves nearly 30,000 troops. All aspects need to be considered. The workload is huge.
But he can coordinate it so perfectly, the two armies are like his own two hands, like arms commanding--Yan Ci's bad temper, is it possible?
Snake-People Tribe, there are those who are very good at military affairs, they are like hidden dragons and crouching tigers!
I couldn't help but pat the Corner Tower railing, marveling at it, and continued to look at it.
The previous 10,000 Snake-People were only used to clear the fortifications under the city and test the combat power of the Anyuan defenders, but now the 20,000 Snake-People were used to truly attack the city!
It was still the same as before, using Heavy Shield to defend and suppressing with long-range weapons, twenty thousand Snake-People slowly approached Anyuan City.
One Siege Ladder--probably, Snake-People Tribe has no legs, so this Siege Ladder is just a Rough Timber. After leaning against the city wall, a Snake-People soldier relied on the snake's tail to swim up, and the speed was not slow.
There is a hook at the top of this Rough Timber ladder, which can hook the Parapet at the top of the city. The defenders at the top of the city cannot push Siege Ladder and can only cut it off. But the wooden ladder is made of Exotic Wood and is extremely strong. Arrows are constantly coming from the top of the city. The defenders have no time to cut off the wooden ladder. A soldier named Snake-People has already wandered up.
At the same time, a carriage with the same height as the city wall also approached the city wall, and dozens of Snake-People hidden on the top of the carriage jumped directly to the top of the city!
Suddenly, a fierce battle for the city wall began...
Yan Ci did not move. He still stopped at the city with his two thousand elites, quietly looking at the city where blood flowed like a river of blood - now was not the time for him to take action.
On top of the city wall, Lin Qu stood under the city gate, surrounded by hundreds of soldiers guarding him, but he also did not take any action.
On the other hand, Snake-People, who had stormed the city, attacked him, but was killed after several rounds of close combat.
But Lin Qu's brows gradually furrowed, because Snake-People invested too many troops. More troops naturally means more strong men.
What he noticed was that there were more than twenty Da Dou Shi and three Dou Ling!
According to the strength of the Cloudrise Empire army and Gama Army, there is often only one Da Dou Shi in an army of one thousand people, and only one Dou Ling in an army of ten or twenty thousand people.
Anyuan City Zhongyuan didn't have so many strong men, and these Snake-People strongmen went on a killing spree at the top of the city, clearing open spaces for more Snake-People soldiers to board the city.
These Snake-People soldiers cooperated with Snake-People strong men to kill more Anyuan defenders, allowing more Snake-People soldiers to climb the city wall, forming a vicious cycle...
Lin Qu finally couldn't bear it any longer, jumped up, and moved his gun with the people, carrying the strong Dou Qi and stabbed one Snake-People Dou Ling brazenly, shouting loudly:
"Aliens suffer death!"
