C38 The battle of life and death (4)

War was always full of accidents and coincidences, whether it was an experienced general or a rookie who had just entered the battlefield. A small thing can lead to a fiasco.

At this time, Xianyu Hetu had never thought that his meticulously planned and long-awaited battle would, because of the intervention of a young man, go through a fundamental reversal.

Who can say that this world is not filled with wonders and changes?

The war had begun with unstoppable momentum; an arrow on a bow would have to be fired!

Situ Qingyun stood at the top of the city, holding onto the sword hilt with both hands, with his head held high and chest puffed out, looking down at the city walls, he continuously gave out orders to defend the city.

"Order, the third troop, advance to the city wall and support them."

"Command, roll stone ready!" "Vote!"

"Command, get the oil ready!" "Down!"

"Order, shoot as you wish!"

"Command, the gunner is against the enemy ?"

Attacking a city was a form of technical work, and defending a city was a form of physical work. If they entered the city, as long as they didn't die, they would be able to complete the quest, but of course, the probability of that was very low. The city guards were extremely busy. Those who threw stones, those who shot arrows, those who poured oil for the fire, those who poured oil for the fire, continued to pour it on the fire, and those who threw stones did not stop.

"Great General Situ, the Southern City Army is almost ready. We can begin!" A general ran over to report to Situ Qingyun.

"How long has the attack been going on?"

"Almost an hour."

"Order, start the big show."

Following the order, sand and dust rose up from the south side of the city. Battle cries shook the sky and the shouts of flags could be heard incessantly. The thundering sounds of horses' hooves charging could be heard from afar.

At the same time, in the Profound Nether Empire army.

"Your Highness, it's almost time. There are still no movements from the south of Longmen City!"

"Wait a little longer."

"Yes sir!"

Not long after, a scout rode up to them.

"Reporting, reporting to the king, there is movement from the south of Longmen City, as if there is someone attacking the city."

"Great, General Helian is indeed brave." Congratulations, Your Highness. "

"Haha, although this disciple of mine is troublesome, it is still a headache for enemies when used on the battlefield." The prince was very pleased.

"Your Royal Highness, should we start the offensive now?"

There's no rush, Helian Rong should be able to hold on for a while, the reinforcements should not be in a rush, and instead, ordered the troops to turn from feints to full-on attacks, to make sure to create the illusion that we are the final main force, and to wait for Situ Na to assign his troops to go to the south side of the city to support, before launching our overall attack.

"This subordinate understands."

Profound Nether Empire's logistics stable.

"Young General, the soldiers of the scouting camp that you taught are really extraordinary. They kill without making a sound, and their speed is fast and efficient."

"Average, average, continent number three, first disabled, second paralyzed!" Gongsun Ze Tian spoke as he rode into the horse farm's garrison camp. Of course, this place had already changed its name.

"Have you captured any of the high-ranking officers here?" Gongsun Ztian stopped in front of the tent and said without turning his head.

"Got it!" The young general is going to interrogate you personally? " The Deputy General Cheng asked.

"Not interested. Did you get any information?"

"Yes, the commander of the Profound Nether Empire Meridian attack this time round is Xianyu Hetu. They are currently engaged in a tug-of-war. Furthermore, it is as Young General has expected, there is indeed a large number of troops hidden at the rear of the enemy army, with a population of about two hundred to two hundred and fifty thousand. There are about one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers attacking the city in front of us, which makes up three hundred and fifty thousand troops.

"It's good to have as many people as you can. It's so lively that I'm afraid we don't have enough fun. "I hope that the number of gifts prepared will be good enough. Should we go to the nearby towns to buy more?"

"Young General, we are currently in the enemy's territory!"

"What do you think?" The more Gongsun Ze spoke, the more excited he got.

"Young General, who do you think you are?"

"..."

The siege warfare in front of him was in full swing as blood and flesh flew everywhere. Corpses were everywhere on the ground and the ground below the city was dyed red.

The soldiers guarding the city had no choice but to pour hot oil into the city and start another round of burning with rockets. However, the rate of burning was far from enough to keep up with the speed of piling up corpses. In just an hour, the two sides had contributed tens of thousands of corpses to the city.

War is tragic, war is unreasonable, war is dehumanizing, war is f * cking it!

"General Situ, the enemy has not shown any signs of sending reinforcements yet. Right now, the enemy has suffered a great loss and we also have suffered a great loss. Do you think the enemy has seen through our plan? "

"Impossible, on the contrary, the enemy has already fallen into our trap. How can we let go of prey that has entered our pockets?"

"How does the general know?"

"He is testing us and also exhausting our strength. I think the old fellow is waiting for an opportunity to crush us. The frontline battles usually involve one type of confrontation. The stronger one is, the stronger one will overwhelm the other and win a war. "

"Don't worry, we're ordering the people from the south to work harder. It's as if they haven't eaten yet."

"Great General, it's already late. The soldiers have not eaten midnight snack yet."

"Scram..."

In the Profound Nether Empire camp.

"Your Highness, we have lost a lot of manpower during the siege. We can see that they have already deployed a small amount of their manpower. Shouldn't we launch an offensive?"

"It's not time yet. I'll wait for another chance. I'm also waiting for a chance, a chance at which I can crush them!"

Suddenly, a disturbance above Longmen City's head occurred.

"Your Highness, look. Many of the enemy troops have started to pull towards the south of the city."

"Scouts, immediately investigate the reason."

Not long after, the scout ran back and reported anxiously while panting heavily.

"Reporting to your highness, there is a shout from the top of the city, saying that the enemy forces that attacked from the south of the city have broken through the outer city walls and are rushing to the inner city walls to defend."

"Haha, the prince is truly wise and knows how to use people well. General Helian is indeed invincible. Congratulations, Your Highness. We have won this battle!"

"Since that little brat is already so hardworking, we can't be slow. Let's begin, we'll give the order for reinforcements to immediately attack the city."

The siege continued, and the resistance of the garrison on the top of the city was getting weaker. There were even one or two places on the city walls that had been broken through and were now engaged in close combat.

At this moment, Gongsun Ztian was eating noodles. It wasn't because he loved eating noodles, but because this was the only type of food that could be found in the camp. It was better than nothing!

"Young General, the enemy's siege was fierce. Right now, they have already broken through the city walls and engaged in close combat with the city guards." Deputy General Cheng ran over and asked anxiously.

"It's good that you came at the right time. There's still something left in the pot. Eat some, you'll have some strength to eat!" Gongsun Ze Tian squatted on the ground, his mouth was filled with noodles, and there were still some upright noodles hanging out of his mouth. He looked up at Deputy General Cheng and mumbled indistinctly.

"Still want to eat? His eyebrows were burning! If you do not support Great General Situ, I am afraid that Longmen City will be broken! "

"How did you achieve the position of vice general? I really doubt your intelligence, it's not as though you haven't faced such a ferocious attack before, the danger is even greater. Let me ask you, has the Longmen City been breached?"

"Never!"

"Then why are you still worried about my ass? Come and eat, prepare to fight when you're full!"

"Fine, give me a bowl. So stingy, use a big bowl ?"

"Serve it yourself and be picky about it. If you want to eat it or not!"

"..."

Just as Gongsun Ze Tian and Cheng Qinglong finished snatching the noodles and was about to snatch the soup, a scout interrupted their interest.

"Reporting to the young general, Deputy General Cheng, the enemy reinforcements have begun to move!"

"F * ck, it has always been the beginning. I thought that Third Uncle's acting wasn't as good as that old fogey's!" They're waiting for me to have a stomachache! "

"Why doesn't it hurt?"

"I can take it!"

"..."

Soon, Gongsun Ztian's fifty thousand men had assembled and were ready to depart at any time. The warriors here all believed in Gongsun Zaitian's ability, so they didn't need any pre-battle lecture to boost their momentum. Right now, these soldiers' momentum was like a rainbow, their killing intent was boundless, like a treasured sword hidden in a sword sheath, the cold light was restrained, but the moment the treasured sword was unsheathed, it would shoot straight up into the sky, unstoppable.

"Information!" Gongsun Zaitian said expressionlessly as he led his horse to the front of the group, looking towards the direction of the Longmen City.

Reporting to Young General, right now, the enemy army has already reached the city walls with more than a thousand people, they are currently fighting with our army, their reinforcements total is over one hundred and fifty thousand, we are still thirty miles away, in about fifteen minutes, we should arrive at the Longmen City. "

"Deputy General Cheng, did you put all those equipment on the horses?"

"Don't worry, you've been busy the entire afternoon."

"My third uncle has already finished his opening act. It's time for us to climax!"

"We won't climax!" Deputy General Cheng earnestly corrected this old man who did not learn or use any techniques, to the point that it would make people's hair stand on end.

"..."

The banter had been ignored, and the war was going on.

"It's about time. Order, drive the horse out and we will follow closely." "Let's go!"

As soon as Gongsun Ztian gave the order, the cavalry immediately took action. Hundreds of thousands of horses and fifty thousand cavalrymen formed a huge black mass. On this kind of night, they did not seem to be out of the ordinary at all.

The horse yard was not far from the main battlefield, and they had to march on horseback. Not long after that, Gongsun Ztian led his team and arrived at the 'spectator position' that they had set beforehand.

View location? That's right, because Gongsun Zaitian felt that this position was the best viewing angle to see the great play clearly. The choice to choose this spot was still Gongsun Zaitian, who had his butt stuck out as he climbed up the map to study the results of the day's worth of research.

"Seems like the enemy has cooperated well. They have gathered together and are now on the verge of a major siege!" Let's start. If we wait any longer, we'll probably be beaten by Third Uncle when we go back. "

"Begin!" Deputy General Cheng instructed.

The 150,000 horses charged towards the rear of the enemy force under the order of a small cavalry unit on both sides. However, why was there some fire flashing on the buttocks of those horses?

Imagine what it would be like to see ten thousand horses galloping, and a hundred and fifty thousand horses? The horse galloped like a torrent, not caring about what was in front of it.

"What's that noise? Why does it feel like lightning?" "What's going on?"

"That's right, why does it sound like a cavalry army?"

The troops at the back of Profound Nether Empire were startled by the sound of the hundreds of thousands of horses galloping. They whispered to each other, at a loss of what to do.

"What happened? Are there any more reinforcements for the cavalry behind us? " Fewer than the Prince asked for accountability.

"This subordinate doesn't know. This subordinate will go investigate."

But before the aide-de-camp could leave, the horses had already charged into the army formation of Profound Nether Empire, like a torrential flood, they did not stop them at all.

As the siege warfare had more infantry than cavalry, the whole army was mainly made up of infantry, and the cavalry was on both sides of the army.

In this kind of array, suddenly facing hundreds of thousands of enemies, the horses that had reached the charging speed were charging and trampling on the horses, causing the Profound Nether Empire's army to be thrown into chaos. The horse tramples on people, the man tramples on people, the man collides with the horse, and he flies.

At this moment, the prince was extremely shocked. Although it was night time, due to the war between the two sides of the city, the lights were brightly lit. The prince immediately determined that these horses must have come from the horse farm of his empire, but why did these horses that should have been at the horse farm come here?

"The last team will advance and behead the horse." At this moment, he didn't have the time to think about why there would be horses charging at his army. The most important thing was to stabilize the situation. He couldn't give up at this time, although he felt that it was impossible, but he knew that even if there was an enemy behind him, it would be difficult for him to stop halfway, so he had no choice but to advance forward. Retreat? It was already impossible!

"Even if it's better than that old brat, he still has some skills. His response is very incisive!" As if admiring a beauty, Gongsun Ze Tian began to comment on Xianyu Hetu's commanding skills.

"Explode!"

The horses that had fully entered the Profound Nether Empire's array started to emit explosive sounds, one after another. After that, powdery objects started to pervade the air.

"Ah, my eyes ?"

"Aaaaaaah ?" "Aaaaaah ?."

The sneeze, the cry, the sound entered his ears.

As the things on the horses exploded, more and more powder began to scatter, filling the entire formation.

"Alright, I see that the air has already filled up very evenly. This is really good, hot and humid. Order the rocket to prepare!" Gongsun Ztian was enjoying the show. Of course, he would not forget to prepare for the good show that would follow.

"Shoot!"

The Fire Arrow fell from the sky like rain of fire, dense arrows rained down onto the heads of the Profound Nether Empire warriors. But before the arrows even reached their bodies, the flames on the arrows started a chain of super large fireballs as they touched the dust in the air, instantly burning everything around them, and the sound of the arrows exploding became even louder and louder.

"Ahh ?" Miserable screams rang out unceasingly. Those who were able to survive were all black, and couldn't get up from the ground.

The air current from the explosion engulfed the surroundings, instantly overturning Xianyu Hetu who was far away from the center of the explosion.

As Xianyu Hetu fell to the ground, all the generals were surprised. They thought that the prince had been severely injured by the explosion just now and had instantly surrounded him, since the commander had already gone to fawn on the prince.

The suspended attack also gave Situ Qingyun a signal, and the soldiers who pretended to leave came back to kill them all, killing all the enemies on the city wall in one go, bringing the situation back to normal.

"General, is this what you meant by attracting attention?"

"..."

Seeing that the people below the city were in a state of upheaval and many people had died, Situ Qingyun did not know how to answer the questions of the generals beside him.

"General, is this what you meant by 'fan the wind and light the fire'?"

"..."

Facing the fireballs that suddenly burned below the city, the large area of explosions, and the burning and burns of the fireball, Situ Qingyun could not help but laugh out loud once again.

"Prepare to counterattack!"

"Prepare to counterattack!"

At this moment, Situ Qingyun and Gongsun Ze Tian gave out this order at almost the same time.

However, after this order came out, it gave rise to a terrifying 'power', an overwhelming 'power'. Xianyu Hetu was waiting for this' power ', and Gongsun Ze Tian and Situ Qingyun were also waiting for this' power 'as well.

Gongsun Ztian ignored the Deputy General Cheng and led the fifty thousand cavalry army to charge towards the enemy camp.

"Kill ?"

Situ Qingyun kicked away the aide-de-camp that was pulling him, bringing the fifty thousand strong cavalry army and rushed out of the north gate.

"Kill ?"
