"Boss, let's go out and fight for a while, what about the three divisions? They can't keep us either." Ma Qun challenged Zhou Weiqing.
Zhou Weiqing shook his head and said: "No way. This time the enemy is different. And you showed up in the last battle, the enemy has taken precautions after all. If both of your brigades are here, I will send you out to destroy The opponent's confidence, but you only have two hundred people now. If you are really entangled by the opponent's two battalions of heavy cavalry, even with your fighting strength, it will not be easy to retreat completely."
Leizi on the other side said: "Boss, let's go then. Fly over their heads and let them know what it means to descend from heaven."
Zhou Weiqing chuckled, and said: "You have a chance to make a move. However, our Peerless Air Force can't be exposed so early. It's not the time yet. Be ready to throw spears. That thing is better than arrows against the enemy attacking the city. Easy to use."
Leizi nodded and said, "It's been prepared a long time ago. Since entering Crescent Moon City, we have ordered blacksmiths to build it, and we brought a lot of it ourselves." While talking, Leizi also gestured to Zhou Weiqing The storage ring on your own hand.
Zhou Weiqing once asked Lin Tianao to purchase storage rings on a large scale. Now, except for the top management of the Peerless Division, the surplus storage rings are all equipped to the first brigade.
Although Zhou Weiqing only has these 700 soldiers in his hands now, don't forget that even in the entire Peerless Division, the 700 soldiers he brought are the best among them.
"Be ready to fight at any time. There is at least half a month before our reinforcements will arrive. During this period of time, we must stick to the top of the city. We must not give the enemy an opportunity."
"Yes." The generals of the Peerless Division suddenly agreed.
What Zhou Weiqing was worried about was not the enemy's frontal attack. With the city wall as the backing, it was almost impossible to break through the city guarded by the Peerless Warriors from the front. However, there are only 700 people in the Peerless Division here. As the saying goes, if the enemy attacks from four directions at the same time in a siege, his manpower will be very stretched.
In order to deal with this situation, Zhou Weiqing has already carried out a unified distribution. Wushuang archers deployed 200 people on the front, and 100 people on each of the remaining three sides, while Wushuang cavalry was transformed into heavy infantry defending the city, with 50 people in each direction. It is impossible to take into account all directions with these forces, but this is also an unavoidable move. As long as the enemy's commander is not a fool, he will definitely launch such an attack because of the current strength of the Peerless Division.
The Wushuang cavalry are already in place on the four walls, but the 500 Wushuang archers are all facing the emperor's south wall. With their condensed wings, they can rush to other directions at any time, so it is still There is no rush to get in place.
Cressy didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. After arriving outside the city, he didn't attack for three consecutive days. It's just that they are stationed only ten miles away from Crescent Moon City, but the oppressive force they form has not diminished in the slightest.
There is no doubt that this is a psychological tactic, and the team led by Crecy must be an excellent general. When they came to the fourth day outside the city, Zhou Weiqing was urgently invited to the top of the city. It was just after breakfast time. changed. He finally understood why the Crecy hadn't attacked the previous three days.
A large number of siege equipment was transported to Crecy Barracks from the rear, including some rush cars specially used during siege. The goal of these rushing cars is not to smash into the city gate, but to transport troops. Each cart is five meters wide and ten meters long, with wheels on all sides, iron plates and cooked cowhide covered on it. The front of the car is extremely thick, with countless sharp blades.
Each chariot can accommodate at least fifty soldiers, and there is a push rod inside the cart. They only need to push the chariot, and they can ignore most of the arms and arrows, including heavy cavalry, and rush all the way to the city.
As many as 50 cars of this kind were transported all at once. In addition, there are even ten catapults, ramming vehicles and other siege equipment, plus four temporary towers that can be pushed forward. It can be said to be extremely complete.
Zhou Weiqing really did not expect that when he knew that there were only more than 3,000 defenders in Xianyue City, and most of them were recruits, Krecy would use so many supplies to attack. It can be seen how much attention is paid to them.
These siege equipment will definitely bring great trouble to the defending side, especially those charging vehicles. With them, the attack power of Wushuang archers and Wushuang cavalry are greatly weakened on the plain terrain. Using the rush car as a cover, in addition to the soldiers in the car, at least four to five thousand soldiers can be transported to the city at one time. Cooperate with ladder siege and catapult attack. It will put enormous pressure on the defenders.
Seeing the siege equipment being pushed to the front, they slowly approached Crescent City, and the Crecy army behind them also began to move.
Fifty assault vehicles were mixed around a mass of siege engines, apparently filled with soldiers. Two battalions of heavy infantry and two battalions of heavy cavalry escorted the siege equipment and slowly pressed forward. In the rear, there are at least four battalions of infantry. The Crecy people actually sent out the main force for the first attack, and judging from what they meant, it didn't look like they were attacking from the flanks at all, they were only targeting the front.
be cheated. Zhou Weiqing immediately realized his mistake. The enemy just grasped his mentality that he thought that the opponent would attack from all sides because of their small force, and instead concentrated all the main force on the front to launch the offensive. With so many siege equipment, this battle is definitely not easy to fight.
"Boss, let's go out of the city for a while. Destroy their siege equipment." Everyone on the top of the city was a little depressed, and the horses couldn't help but challenged again.
Zhou Weiqing waved his hand, "No, there are too many enemies, and there are rushing cars to rely on. It is too dangerous for you to go out."
Yan Zhexi said: "Boss, do you want to bring back the Wushuang cavalry from the other three sides?"
Zhou Weiqing shook his head and said, "No, the other three sides may face the enemy's attack at any time. You see, the light cavalry has already gone around the Crecy barracks in the distance. Although their siege ability is not too strong, but It's not something our recruits can stand up to. It's a tough fight, boys, keep your spirits up. If we win this fight, we'll last until reinforcements arrive."
If there is no Heavenly King-level assassin hiding in the dark, even if the enemy army in front of him is stronger, Zhou Weiqing will not be half discouraged. But that hidden enemy has involved a lot of his energy, and he must be on guard at any time. This feeling is very uncomfortable.
The enemy was getting closer and closer, and the command of these Crecy soldiers was very good. They didn't mean to advance aggressively at all, they just moved forward slowly, but they were very steady, and the lineup remained neat.
Zhou Weiqing sneered, "I'll give them a meeting gift first." As he spoke, he outlined with both hands in front of his body, releasing the Six Absolute Divine Light Formation, and at the same time released the dragon-tiger transformation, with huge wings spreading behind his back , all the jewel masters present could clearly feel that the huge energy of various attributes in the air was frantically condensing towards Zhou Weiqing's body.
Shangguan Xue'er and Tian'er who were standing on both sides of Zhou Weiqing's body subconsciously moved closer to him, always vigilant about everything around them. Zhou Weiqing was about to launch an attack, which obviously gave the Heavenly King Assassin hiding somewhere a chance to sneak up. Be careful sailing for thousands of years, the second daughter must of course be vigilant and careful.
Not only them, Lin TianAo also stood behind Zhou Weiqing, he was more direct, released the seven-bead combination condensate shield, his eyes scanned the surroundings coldly, ready to respond at any time.
Overlord Bow exuded a cold aura, Zhou Weiqing shouted loudly, the bow was like a full moon, and under the cover of the Six Absolute Divine Glow Formation, he was like a demon god in the dragon and tiger transformation state, especially that sound was like a tiger roaring The shouting cheered up the spirits of all the soldiers on the wall.
Facing the enemy's oppression and the constant pressure of the previous few days, the morale of the soldiers on the top of the city was somewhat low. Zhou Weiqing may not be an excellent commander, but in terms of the overall situation, he is comparable to the best commander. He knew very well what he should do at this time.
There was a layer of black luster on the Overlord's Bow, and in an instant, Zhou Weiqing's huge heavenly power condensed by the Six Absolute Divine Light Formation was transformed into the power of darkness in an instant. The alexandrite cat's eye bead in one corner of the six-pointed star in the Six Absolute Divine Glow Formation also shone brightly. Obviously, what Zhou Weiqing is using now is not an imitation skill, but a direct release of one of the six skills stored on the Six Absolute Divine Light Formation.
A pitch-black light and shadow quietly appeared above Zhou Weiqing's head. This light and shadow gradually spread and turned into a human shape, but behind it were three pairs of wings.
At this moment, Zhou Weiqing yelled again, his eyes suddenly turned white, and then, a very special breath rushed out from his body, floating upward from the position of the head, turning into a Wisps of silver-white mist merged into the dark light and shadow in the sky.
This silver-white aura is like the best nutrient, but in an instant, the black light and shadow increased three times, and it was more than ten meters high. The wide six wings behind it stretched out, and the whole figure was gradually become clear.
Everyone on the top of the city felt that they couldn't breathe. Even though the huge black light and shadow were not aimed at them, they still did. Zhou Weiqing took a step forward, but he had already stepped out of the city, and his whole body was suspended in the void. The same is true of the huge black phantom above his head. But at this moment, his appearance was completely presented in the eyes of tens of thousands of people on both sides.
