This Overlord Doesn’t Care About Anything

Chapter 677: 25. Siege

Views:

With Dai Lisi's protection, the Yuxi City soldiers who woke up from their sleep in the morning did not feel overly tired.

Like a child who has had enough sleep, his body and mind have become very clear, and his body is full of inexhaustible energy. That kind of carefree feeling seems to have unloaded the burden on the body, the breath is refreshing, and it seems to be able to hold the world in the palm of your hand when you reach out.

Lied raised his hand, and a handsome flying eagle landed on his wrist. Lid took off a letter box from the top, opened the cover and poured out a letter that was folded and rolled up repeatedly. He narrowed his eyes, read the letter paper carefully and tore it into pieces, let go of his hand, and let the scraps of paper drift away with the wind.

He stretched out his hand and waved lightly, and the eagle spread its wings and soared into the sky.

"Yuxi City has never rejected any kindness, but very few people are willing to release kindness to us."

Li De smiled slightly, sitting alone on the city wall, looking at the black siege army below, drank the remaining wine in his hand, threw the wine glass off the city wall, and shattered into the yellow sand.

He said as if talking to himself:

"Then let's get it back ourselves."

His figure disappeared on the city wall, and the place where he was sitting was suddenly covered with bows and arrows. The rumbling trebuchet started to operate, and huge stones were thrown towards the city head one after another. A huge boulder with a diameter of two to three meters hit the city wall. Even with the protection of the moat, there were visible dents on the city wall. Sand and dust rose into the sky, and the choking smell was everywhere.

"All—Attack!!"

The rain of arrows suppressed the defenders on the city wall, and countless attackers rushed towards Xiaxin City while waving their knives and guns.

For every soldier killed in Yuxi City, ten gold coins will be rewarded.

The first person to climb to the top of the city will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins.

Capture or kill the senior generals of Yuxi City alive, and reward 500 gold coins.

Killing Fang Shisan rewarded 3,000 gold coins, and capturing Fang Shisan alive rewarded 10,000 gold coins.

One hundred thousand gold coins will be rewarded for bringing back Lide's head.

There are also various titles of titles, and at worst one can step into the threshold of nobility.

Before this expedition, Lord Yunyang had clearly proposed a reward for this war. For these soldiers who have been training in Lingyun City for a long time, they have seen what real prosperity is, and they naturally know what this money can do. The best girl in a brothel, the best wine in a restaurant, a mansion in a tall building, eight sedan chairs, overwhelming power, and the glory of generations...

All the best and most extravagant things they can imagine can be satisfied with this money.

The hereditary titles of nobility allow them to ascend to the sky in one step and become the newly promoted martial arts in the Yunyang territory. As long as Yunyang does not fall, their glory and wealth will not disappear, and their descendants will live with a halo from birth. They will not have to worry about money when they are born, and they will be born in a higher place than their peers.

All these beautiful things can be realized now only by risking your life and charging.

So what reason is there to back down? Such a good opportunity, maybe there will never be a second time in this life!

Yes, the soldiers in Yuxi City are very powerful, they have already seen this point yesterday. Those people are very capable of fighting, and they are not afraid of death, but there are nearly 20,000 people on their side, plus a large number of stone throwing facilities. No matter how strong the soldiers of Yuxi City are, can they still kill themselves? There will always be those who survived climbing the city wall, attacking the city, burning, killing and looting while taking away a large amount of bounty.

Everyone feels that they have the hope of becoming the lucky one, so everyone will risk their lives and work hard to move forward.

Talking about money is tacky but effective, and the bounty is heavy enough to make them worth the gamble with their lives.

The black army came in like a tide, and the formation specially prepared for the siege played the greatest effect. Coupled with the reason of high morale, even though the walls of Xiaxin City had been strengthened several times, they were still under such an offensive. Look precarious. The Xuanjia Camp and Wangdong Camp, which played prestige yesterday, switched from offense to defense. Although they still maintain extremely high combat effectiveness, their strength is still limited to a certain extent.

Although it occupies a favorable location, the defense of the city will be more passive. The scope of action is limited, and the opponent has a lot of stones and arrows to guard against. It is fine for Xuanjiaying, but it has a great impact on Wangdongying. Although I have received professional training, this feeling of being powerless can still make people feel very irritated.

Fortunately, at this time, the Shaoyu Camp, which had been silent for a long time, finally officially joined the battlefield.

In fact, there are not so many tricks to defending the city. It depends on five points: first, whether the defense formation is strong; second, whether the gap between the attacker and the defender is large; Fifth, whether the army and people defending the city can operate effectively according to reasonable scheduling.

Many cities can be tenaciously defended by a group of people who have never been on the battlefield because of proper scheduling. Someone ordered them to demolish houses in advance to prepare a large amount of rolling stones and fallen trees. Special personnel were responsible for transporting these defensive props from the city to the top of the city. Fang Shisan was doing it all by herself, and now finally someone can help her.

The Shaoyu Camp, which is "from a professional background", really doesn't have much experience on the battlefield. Compared with the Xuanjia Camp, which has supported several battles by itself, or the Wangdong Camp, which can risk their lives to move forward, this young and The theoretical army has always been outside the mainstream. Many people, including the people under Yuxi City, are skeptical about the existence of the military academy. They always feel that the army that can fight is honed on the battlefield. Isn't it nonsense to let a bunch of half-grown boys study in the city

But in fact, there are not only young people in the Shaoyu Camp, this team has a characteristic that no other army has: independence.

Orders are not necessarily issued by the top, and everyone at the bottom has enough quality to participate in decision-making.

So even if they are separated, even if they are broken up, they will not mess up, but will look for the most suitable way to break the situation.

This feature is brought into full play in the battle of defending the city. Where the opponent might attack by force, the Shaoyu Battalion would deploy defenses in advance; a large number of Shaoyu Battalion soldiers were scattered to every corner of the city, commanding the people who had the will to resist to do various things in an orderly manner. As small as transporting grain and cooking, as large as demolishing some old houses in an orderly manner, they all cannot do without the participation of soldiers from the Shaoyu camp.

They will not show much limelight on the frontal battlefield, and there is no glorious deed of bloody fighting like Wang Dongying.

But with them around, the war just becomes easier than usual.

Because they are originally soldiers trained according to the training method of Li Deyuan's world, it is not advisable to talk about soldiers on paper, but if we can combine the paper of talking about soldiers with the swords and guns in our hands, we can analyze and deal with them on the battlefield with a more scientific perspective. If there are any problems, what will be manifested will be a completely different new force.

This kind of power is enough to cast a heavy weight on the balance of war.

The ladder is like a towering mountain forest.

Iron arrows are like dark clouds covering the sky.

The boulders are like pouring rain.

Countless people rushed here, and countless people died here.

Only the winning side is eligible to leave its name here.

Luge chopped down the enemy in front of him with a single knife, and the Selaginella spear was stained with blood.

Ming Gan wiped the sweat off his face, his voice soon became hoarse, and there was a burning pain deep in his throat.

Fang Shisan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, clenched the armrests and silently adjusted the flow of forces in the army formation, blocking the attacks of the troops outside again and again, with a slightly haggard face.

Lid raised his head and glanced at the sky above his head.

The air was filled with the dry heat before midsummer, thick as if it was about to drip water, dull and humid.

-It is going to rain.
