General Tang was extremely shocked.
There are 300,000 troops in the city, and another 100,000 enemy troops are coming soon!
Then I heard that Huainan Mansion was also guarded by 200,000 soldiers!
Six hundred thousand troops, the total number of soldiers is greater than half of the imperial court!
No wonder the King of Huainan dared to rebel. If he had an army of 600,000... bah bah bah! What are you thinking!
I am not such a person!
The words "loyalty and serving the country with loyalty" are engraved on his heart!
Nalan Jinnian shook his head: "The ones coming are probably soldiers from the Dongling Kingdom. Let's not leave any of them behind this time!"
When General Tang heard this, he cursed again in his heart!
I knew Tanglin Congress would join in the fun this time!
"Yes, I'm going to prepare to attack the city! I will make sure that the soldiers in Dongling never come back. Let's see if they dare to send troops next time!"
General Tang hurriedly made arrangements.
Although they are full of fighting spirit, they only have one hundred thousand soldiers. One hundred thousand versus four hundred thousand troops, this battle will be difficult to win!
General Tang quickened his pace.
They can only capture the city and kill some of the enemy troops before the 100,000 soldiers arrive!
Otherwise, when the 100,000 troops arrive and the 300,000 troops swarm out of the city, there will be trouble!
Nalan Jinnian and Wen Nuan climbed up to the observation deck.
This lookout was built temporarily.
Nuan Nuan looked into the distance with a telescope.
Blocked by mountains, no trace of the enemy troops could be seen at this time.
But the soldiers in the city seemed to have begun to gather.
It seems that they already knew that 100,000 reinforcements would arrive today, and then they would attack from both front and back!
Nuan Nuan thought for a while: "I will take 20,000 elite soldiers and Da Hui to meet the 100,000 army."
Nalan Jinnian thought for a while: "Okay! Two kilometers away, be careful."
Unbeknownst to the enemy, they were relying not on a sentry but an eagle to deliver the message.
So the news was known a little early, enough to set up an ambush.
It was two kilometers away, not far from here. Once the distress signal went off, he could get there quickly on horseback.
Besides, Nalan Jinnian knew Nuan Nuan's strength.
So he wouldn't worry too much if she led someone to ambush her.
He believed she could handle this little thing
Nuan Nuan and Nalan Jinnian walked off the observation tower. By this time, the army had gathered all the siege tools and assembled them!
Nalan Jinnian said to the soldiers: "There are 300,000 troops in the city, and 100,000 enemy troops are approaching ten miles away in the southeast. We will soon face 400,000 enemy troops attacking from both sides!"
"If we want to break this situation, we must first attack the city and destroy some of the enemy troops before the 100,000-strong army arrives. That way, when the 100,000-strong army arrives, we won't have such difficulty! There is a huge disparity in the strength of this battle, but Everyone is fighting one against three! Are you confident of winning?"
"Yes!" One hundred thousand soldiers immediately responded loudly.
Nuan Nuan came to the other side of the female corps.
In addition to the female corps, there are also 10,000 elite soldiers brought by Nalan Jinnian.
Nuan Nuan said to them: "A group of elite female soldiers and a group of elite male soldiers will follow me to ambush two miles away to intercept the enemy!"
"Yes!" Twenty thousand people responded in unison.
"Without further ado, take Thunderbolt and let's go!"
"Yes!" The 20,000 soldiers were all excited.
They have never seen the power of thunderbolts.
But I heard it is very powerful!
Move mountains and seas!
Nuan Nuan left with 20,000 soldiers.
Nalan Jinnian glanced at her, then raised the sword in his hand: "Attack the city!"
"Woo~" the trumpet sounded.
"Dong dong dong!!!!" I remembered the sound of drums~
"Brothers, come on!" General Tang led the army and rushed forward.
The soldiers in the city had long seen the imperial soldiers gathering. Three hundred thousand soldiers quickly rushed to the city gate, and the streets were filled with soldiers.
King Huainan walked up to the city, hid on the battlements, looked at the soldiers of the court and sneered: "Guard well, don't let the enemy open the city gate! Wait another half an hour, and our reinforcements will arrive. Open the city gate and kill them all!"
The soldiers of the imperial court soon arrived at the city.
King Huainan saw that the soldiers were still fifty meters away from the city gate, and he ordered: "Fire the arrow!"
The first step in siege is a rain of arrows.
But this move had little effect on the imperial soldiers. They all pulled their hands back in unison, and each of them put on a big iron hat shaped like a nail on their head.
Then everyone stood together in dense rows and marched forward!
From above, it looks like an airtight iron sheet!
Countless arrows fell on the iron sheet and could not hurt the soldiers at all!
Instead, they provided them with a lot of arrows!
Just pick it up and it's ready to use.
"Don't fire arrows!" King Huainan immediately ordered after seeing this.
Damn it, how did the imperial soldiers think of this kind of iron hat? Above their heads, a group of people stood together to form a large iron sheet. The soldiers in the first row in front held shields to block arrows.
Their arrow rain offensive has absolutely no effect!
Tens of thousands of arrows were wasted!
Don't think he doesn't know that the last time the imperial soldiers attacked the city, all the arrows were picked up by the imperial soldiers!
He was so angry!
Now here we go again!
What frightened King Huainan even more was that the movements of the soldiers in the imperial court were too neat!
One hundred thousand troops advanced together, and the iron sheet looked like a complete piece of iron sheet from above!
How did these soldiers do it!
Such a unified and tacit understanding made King Huainan feel a deep crisis!
"Bash the city gate!" General Tang ordered.
The imperial soldiers in the middle carried two huge long logs and began to rush forward. With the momentum, the two long logs slammed into the city gate.
The soldiers on both sides followed their steps forward, meticulously!
The iron sheet staring at the top of his head did not move at all!
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the heavy city gate shook, but it was still closed tightly.
"Falling rocks!" King Huainan immediately ordered when he saw the soldiers hitting the city gate with wood.
Huge stones were pushed down from the city by the enemy.
It's just that the giant tree is very long, and the soldiers don't even need to get close to where the boulder fell to hit the city gate!
A pile of rocks fell, but not a single imperial soldier was hit!
King Huainan was furious: "Are you blind? You are throwing stones at people!"
There are not many stones on the city. Throw them a few times and they will be gone. Throw so many stones and you can't hit a single person.
"Come again!" General Tang shouted loudly.
The soldiers of the imperial court came forward again holding wood!
This time the soldiers on both sides were very close to the wall.
"Throw stones! Throw stones!" King Huainan ordered anxiously.
While huge stones were thrown down, the soldiers of the imperial court retreated uniformly like a tide.
The enemy army only saw the intact piece of iron sheet and immediately retreated without any chaos.
Once again, a bunch of falling rocks didn’t hit anyone!
The archers also had no chance to play.
"Idiot!" King Huainan was furious.
