The light in the city gate startled the enemy troops outside the city and they stopped immediately.
I saw the earth-based spiritual energy gathering madly on the four walls of the city gate, and a huge formation was activated.
Clumps of dirt on the ground rose up and gradually turned into a thick stone wall in the city gate passage, completely blocking the entire city gate passage.
This stone wall looks extremely solid, and its thickness is comparable to the entire city wall. One can easily imagine how strong it is, which is definitely far greater than the previous city gate.
With the battering ram right outside the city, it is basically very difficult for the enemy to enter the city from here.
This sudden change stunned everyone in the Tianxia Alliance. It seemed that they had fallen into the trap of the Tongxin Alliance.
The First Talisman Saint immediately cursed: "How dare these bastards plot against me like this!!!
Intensify the attack, the top of the city has been occupied, it’s useless even if they block the city gate!!!"
As they were talking, the 3,000 or so soldiers of the Tianxia Alliance in the city had already been attacked by the Tongxin Alliance.
They had just rushed out of the city gate when they suddenly discovered that there were rows of giant crossbows for defending the city on the street not far ahead.
These giant crossbows were used by the garrison city to defend the city. Now all of them have been moved down from the top of the city by Ye Li and placed on the streets in the city.
The three thousand soldiers of the Tianxia Alliance had no time to react before they were attacked from such a close distance by rows of giant crossbows. The huge impact and penetrating power of the giant arrows were often able to pierce several enemies at once.
The three thousand soldiers of Tianxia Alliance were pierced by the crossbows placed around them without even encountering the soldiers of Tongxin Alliance. The corpses lying in all directions filled the entire city gate.
The enemy troops on the city wall had completely forced the soldiers of the Tongxin League into the city, and the soldiers of the Tongxin League began to gradually retreat towards the city along the city wall.
The residential houses in the entire city have basically been completely demolished, and the people in the city have been resettled in other places. The Tongxin League has a huge space in the city where they can fight with the soldiers of the Tianxia League.
Just when the Tianxia Alliance had nearly 30,000 soldiers entering the city and the vanguard troops were engaged in a battle with the Tongxin Alliance army, Ye Li had already appeared next to the Spirit Gathering Artillery Corps in the city.
"Everyone, get ready and start attacking the city walls in turns.
According to our previous plan, 500 guns will form a group and take turns bombarding the enemies on the city wall, making sure to cut off the enemy troops entering the city.
They do have more people than us, but if we can cut them apart piece by piece, then their armies will be defeated one by one!!!"
Ye Li shouted to the people around him.
The members of the Soul Gathering Artillery Regiment suddenly launched the Soul Gathering Cannon. A huge roar sounded, and balls of dazzling spiritual light flashed. Five hundred Soul Gathering Cannons bombarded the top of the city, instantly killing all the enemy troops on the city wall.
Behind the 30,000 enemy soldiers, a row of vacuum areas suddenly appeared. In this area, except for the broken limbs and arms all over the ground, not even a single enemy soldier could be seen.
The violent explosion on the top of the city wall and the strong impact it brought even shook away many soldiers in the tower cars outside the city.
The First Fu Sheng and others outside the city only saw a dazzling light flash on the top of the city. The place that was crowded with people just now suddenly became empty.
They immediately guessed what had just happened, but they had no idea what to do.
The First Talisman Saint's face turned a little ugly. He felt as if he had been plotted by Ye Li and was gradually falling into the enemy's trap.
After the Soul Gathering Cannon killed the soldiers on the top of the city wall, it began to aim at the soldiers who had already gone down into the city. The giant crossbow on the other side was also pushed over and aimed at the 30,000 enemy troops.
The enemy army, which had been so aggressive just now, suddenly became weak and seemed to be unable to advance or retreat.
On the top of the city wall, the enemy troops did not dare to stop and continued to pour into the city. Under the current situation, they could only choose to attack by force. Even if more people died, they had to rush into the garrison city.
"Boom..."
There was another loud roar, and the enemy troops who had just entered the city, as well as a part of the enemy's 30,000 troops, all fell under the attack of the spirit gathering cannon.
When attacking the city, the enemy troops, which were originally in extremely scattered positions, had to gather together, which gave the Soul Gathering Cannon a great opportunity to kill.
This is also the reason why Ye Li chose to create such a situation. In his opinion, the variables on the battlefield are too great, and the environment outside the city gives the enemy enough space to move.
But inside the city, or at the moment of attacking the city wall, the enemy army could not play any tricks. No matter what their previous strategies and tactics were, when they rushed into the city wall, the only thing they could do was to stand on the top of the city and find a way to go down to the city.
This is also the best time chosen by Ye Li to attack, which can allow the enemy to be hit by the spirit gathering cannon without any escape.
The enemy troops continued to pour into the city. The initial 30,000 troops that entered the city were all killed inside the city under the joint attack of the troops inside the city.
At this time, the First Talisman Saint's face was already livid. He knew that he must have fallen into Ye Li's trap.
Now he is in a dilemma. After all, he doesn't know that Ye Li's spirit gathering cannon consumes a large amount of spirit stones. In his opinion, if he gives up the siege and chooses to retreat.
This would mean that the 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers who had died before had died in vain. The Tongxin Alliance's losses in this battle were estimated to be less than 10,000 people, and the death toll ratio between the two sides was far too different.
Moreover, in his opinion, in the next round of siege, the Tongxin Alliance would definitely make adjustments to his current deployment, and it would be too difficult for him to attack the city again.
Gritting his teeth, the First Talisman Saint roared, "Everyone listen up, no matter what the cost, you must attack the city.
As long as we can entangle with the army of the Tongxin League, the enemy will not be able to use those long-range attack methods to hit us!!!"
As he gave the order, the speed of the siege began to accelerate. Outside the city gate, experts had already gathered, ready to use the power of talismans to break through the rock blockade.
Although these rocks look thick, they were formed by using the power of spiritual energy to mobilize the underground soil. After all, they are not as solid as the diamonds in the city wall.
Although it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to break through, it is not impossible to break it if there is a Shinto master leading the attack.
As the Tianxia Alliance's offensive intensified, the Tongxin Alliance finally began to feel the pressure.
The attack speed of the Spirit Gathering Cannons also began to slow down, apparently because the high-quality spirit stones were becoming less and less, and Ye Li no longer dared to let them fire continuously.
