Mr. Xu summoned the captain who was staying on the city wall and inquired about the movements of the Frost Spirit Clan army outside the city after he returned to the city.
The camp of the Frost Spirit Tribe outside the west gate of Dragon City was completely destroyed. The leaders of the Frost Spirit Tribe army must get together to discuss countermeasures.
As long as you determine which camp in the south, east, or north these people are currently gathering in, and choose any camp where they are not present to launch a raid, you can achieve the desired results.
After some questioning, Mr. Xu knew that the people in charge of the Frost Spirit Clan had gathered at the camp outside the south gate.
In other words, at this moment, you can just raid any camp outside the north gate and east gate.
But to err on the side of caution, it would be safest to raid the North Gate camp.
If this is the case, then send troops!
Another surprise attack, a lightning attack!
Mr. Xu led his troops and galloped all the way, setting fire to the Frost Spirit people's North City Gate camp. As for the number of casualties caused to the other party, time was tight and there was no time to assess.
In short, although the results of this battle were not as good as the raid on the Frost Spirit people's camp outside the west gate, the blow to the Frost Spirit people was not much worse.
"This is a shame!"
When the news that the camp outside the North City Gate was burned by fire under the leadership of Mr. Xu reached the ears of a group of Frost Spirit nobles, these Frost Spirit nobles immediately exploded collectively.
"No compromise, attack the city!"
"Attack day and night!"
"Massacre the city!"
“The glory of God cannot be blasphemed!”
The nobles who had just decided to negotiate with Mr. Xu suddenly changed their minds.
If Mr. Xu knew that Shuang Lingren had planned to negotiate with him, but was given up by his operation, he would probably regret it for a while.
After all, if negotiation can be used to delay time, Mr. Xu will definitely want it.
The advantage of the Frost Spirit Tribe lies in the ice and snow season, not in the warm weather, especially in the hot weather.
Therefore, it would be best if the battle against the Frost Spirit Tribe could be delayed until summer.
It's a pity that Mr. Xu didn't know that he had such an opportunity.
Mr. Xu led his men to raid the Frost Spirit people's camp in the north of the city and returned with a great victory.
The momentum of the soldiers and civilians in the city rose again.
However, just in the middle of the night, the Frost Spirits launched an unexpected attack.
If Mr. Xu hadn't asked people to observe the movements of the Frost Spirits day and night, he might have been caught off guard by the Frost Spirits' night attack.
Mr. Xu, who had been prepared for a long time, did not let anyone make any noise, but acted as if he had not noticed it. He waited for the Frost Spirit people to approach the city wall in large numbers before suddenly launching an attack.
The sling was the first to throw out the pot of fire and oil, illuminating the night.
Then arrows rained down, covering the savage army below the city.
The unsuspecting Frost Spirit army suffered an unprecedented blow, and in just a few moments, at least thousands of people were killed.
The Frost Spirit people's attack was blocked, so they could only abandon the corpse and retreat in embarrassment.
This attack was the first time since the start of the siege that the Frost Spirits suffered the most tragic losses without even scaling the city wall.
It didn't even cause any damage to Mr. Xu and the others who were guarding the city.
"Is this a joke?"
Mr. Xu waited for Shuanglingren to retreat with a puzzled look on his face.
If the Frost Spirit people continue to attack the city in this way, then the Frost Spirit people will not be able to have any impact on them.
But obviously, this night scene was an accident.
…
After the short but failed night attack, the Frost Spirit people became quiet.
Until dawn, the Frost Spirit Man made no further moves.
But when it was daylight, the Frost Spirit people's attack came as promised.
This time, the Frost Spirit people were different from usual. They did not scale the city wall, but focused on attacking the four gates of Dragon City.
The strong Frost Spirit clansman carried the giant tree and hit the city gate again and again.
Although the gates of Dragon City are strong, they will be breached sooner or later under such an impact.
On the top of the city gate, rolling logs and stones were continuously thrown down, and fire oil was poured on them, trying to kill all the Frost Spirit tribesmen who hit the city gate.
However, the opponent seemed to be like a muscle. No matter how many people died, they still hit the city gate regardless.
"Master Marquis, the east gate is about to collapse!"
Most of the day passed, and unfortunate news came from the east gate guard.
Mr. Xu took a deep breath and could only order the city gate to be completely blocked.
In this way, even if the Frost Spirit people broke through the city gate, they would not be able to rush into the city.
But in this case, Mr. Xu and the others in the city would not be able to leave the city through the east gate.
And that's not the worst.
The worst thing is that once all four city gates have to be blocked, Dragon City will become a trapped city. They can only passively withstand the attack of the Frost Spirit tribe, and there is no possibility of counterattack at any time.
Obviously, this is what the Frost Spirit Tribe had in mind.
"My Lord, we cannot allow the Frost Spirit Tribe to continue like this. Once all four city gates are lost, we will be completely trapped in the city!"
"That's not necessarily the case!"
Mr. Xu chuckled, waved his hand violently, and said: "Give me the order to block all the city gates!"
Want to block yourself in the city
It’s just a joke!
You Shuangling people can think of digging tunnels to attack the city, so isn't it reasonable for me to dig tunnels from the city to the outside of the city
Soldiers who, deception also.
Mr. Xu thought of the tactic of digging tunnels, and naturally he no longer worried about the city gate being blocked.
When the Frost Spirit people thought they were trapped in the city, at the critical moment, they could give them a huge surprise.
Mr. Xu had a plan here, so he naturally blocked the remaining three city gates.
The Frost Spirit Tribe people saw that all four city gates were blocked. After breaking through the city gates, they could only retreat in embarrassment.
"Tuoba Aofeng, hurry up, gather people and dig four tunnels leading to the outside of the city!"
"Dig a tunnel?"
Tuoba Aofeng was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Mr. Xu meant.
The city gate was blocked, but they were not necessarily trapped in the city.
"Subordinates, go and gather men now!"
Tuoba Aofeng understood what Mr. Xu meant and immediately went to gather people.
Although digging holes is not what the Northern Barbarians are good at, there are professional craftsmen in the city who can guide them. They don't need to know how to dig holes, they just need to be able to work.
After all, digging holes can be considered strenuous work.
Coincidentally, the Northern Barbarians have never lacked strength.
…
When the four gates of Dragon City were sealed, the Frost Spirit tribesmen outside the city immediately chose to break camp and leave. Instead of retreating, they headed towards Pingman City.
When the news reached Mr. Xu's ears, even the extremely calm Mr. Xu was now a little panicked.
The people of the Frost Spirit Tribe were clearly preparing to concentrate their forces and capture Pingman City first.
Once Pingman City is captured, then when the Northern Barbarian army gathers outside Dragon City, the fall of Dragon City will be inevitable. (End of chapter)
