Chapter 422

"Send the order, and the reserve team will go around the rear and attack the city gate on the left of Tianyuan!"

Although his face was livid with anger, Zheng Yuanyun issued new instructions at the first time.

In any case, this wave of temptation has achieved its goal, despite heavy losses.

Why did the other party set traps at both ends of the wall?

First, they have enough time to dig traps.

But second

The trap will be excavated on both sides of the wall. Doesn't that just mean that the other party is afraid of him attacking from both sides?

The reason why they are afraid is naturally because they are not strong enough to intercept them on the front battlefield. When they are not strong enough, they still have the spare strength to guard against raids on both sides.

If there are enough troops, why bother to dig the trap there? I'm not even sure if Zheng Yuanyun will attack from both ends of the city wall.

To this extent, it is undoubtedly due to the lack of troops.

Otherwise, with this time, the other party will dig the trap to a more favorable position. Isn't it more effective?

No one can tell if Zheng Yuanyun will order an attack from both sides. Even Zheng Yuanyun himself doesn't know.

Therefore, after losing nearly 300000 troops, Zheng Yuanyun was 80% sure. Ouyang was very afraid of his attack from both sides, so he dug a trap and took precautions there.

In that case, it is impossible to give up the weakness that was tested out after 300000 troops!

It has to be said that even Zheng Yuanyun himself has to admit that at this moment, he has some head.

For a long time, since he entered Nantes Province, he has been with the wind and water, and his troops have occupied an absolute advantage for a long time.

Even knowing that Ouyang has more troops than him, he is still higher in terms of the quality of the soldiers.

However, after the loss of these two waves of troops, does he dare to say that he has an absolute advantage?

I'm afraid not.

That's why he has to regain his advantage. Otherwise, how can he account for the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops?

In any case, the troops on both sides were ambushed and almost completely destroyed. This matter is indisputable. It must be Zheng Yuanyun's responsibility.

Then in order to make up for this mistake, he must prove himself that hundreds of thousands of soldiers did not lose in vain.

Now that it is clear that the enemy's strength is insufficient, it will be a good strategy to attack separately. As for why we choose the left gate, it is because the right side is closer to the main road of troop transportation. When attacking, if we are not careful, we will be supported by the enemy from the rear, and it will be easier for the left side to face each other.

The loss of two waves of troops will undoubtedly question Zheng Yuanyun's authority, but the generals saw Zheng Yuanyun's face as black as coal, and wisely didn't touch him at this time.

Moreover, this scene is deja vu.

When we were in Xilong City, didn't our side lose a lot of troops in the early stage, and even almost triggered a mutiny?

But later, facts proved that Lord Zheng's decision was still no problem. Although he was cold-blooded and did not take into account the lives of his soldiers, he still won Xilong city after all.

How similar is this scene now?

I think Lord Zheng, like the last time, fought for the loss of his own soldiers, so as to find the weakness of the other party?

They can only think like this and hope like this. Therefore, Zheng Yuanyun's order was transmitted to the rear at a very fast speed. The most elite siege force hidden behind the leading forces is waiting for the command of attack at the moment.

As a cover, Zheng Yuanyun also ordered people to gather the disabled troops together again on the front battlefield.

Compared with the losses on both sides, the frontal battlefield is just a siege. The normal loss of the attacking forces can not be ignored. The generals are familiar with handling it. Soon, they have gathered all the troops in front.

The so-called snake can't do without a head. After being hit by a stone throwing offensive, someone suddenly took the lead to command. The soldiers reunited at this moment, and their hearts were full of anger.

Not for Zheng Yuanyun, but for Tianyuan city.

"General, give orders!"

Someone wiped the dirty blood on his face, gritted his teeth and shouted, "our brother can't die in vain!"

The general sent to take over the front army also shouted loudly: "brothers, it's time for us to attack!"

He pointed back with a sudden hand and choked, "those brothers didn't die in vain. It's because they sacrificed their lives that they finally gave us the possibility to fight back!"

Although most of the 100000 people in the front battlefield were killed and injured, they still pushed forward for a long distance. At the moment, the Tianyuan city is estimated to be the first batch of ammunition to be exhausted. When the old force is exhausted and the new force is not born, it gives these storming soldiers a chance to breathe.

Not only that, their advance finally made the catapult troops belonging to Qingyang empire within the attack range!

In addition, there are large siege devices such as siege towers that are fortunately not damaged by gunfire, which have been pushed into the attack range of archers in the tower.

In this way, they finally have the capital to fight back!

Before the general's voice fell, dozens of well preserved siege towers took the lead in opening fire. For a time, the arrow rain as fast as locusts spread all over the world, and finally came from the Qingyang empire.

However, it is a pity that Ouyang's newly built wall is much higher than the original old city wall of Tianyuan city. At the same time, it is also higher than the range of siege tower, so the archers can only shoot from the back.

Unfortunately, however, they were in the headwind at the moment. The arrows flying into the sky were blown back by the strong wind and hurt their own people. After all, only a few people could get the city wall, and there was little damage to the defenders at the head of Tianyuan city.

But fortunately, the catapult followed.

After a round of arrow rain, the stone catapults also roared. The stone catapult troops, which are no less than the number of Tianyuan City, finally stepped into the attack range. The huge stone catapults will not be greatly affected by the wind. In the first round, it hit the head of Tianyuan city like a hail rain. For a time, the continuous bombardment can make people's scalp numb.

Taking advantage of their own fire suppression, the soldiers below rushed forward desperately under the cry of the general.

It has to be said that the quality of Zheng Yuanyun's soldiers is indeed higher.

Although he was stunned before, as soon as the attack order was issued, everyone caught the opportunity at the first time, and didn't forget to bring the impact hammer and other siege equipment with great impact on the city gate during the charge.

Seventy or eighty thousand soldiers who were so angry that they finally found a vent. In front of them, they could finally see the other party's gate!
