Liu Zhang's new regiment launched a strong attack against the stone city, but the attack was not smooth. First, the terrain of the stone city was steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Second, the garrison was tenacious and fought hard, and the attack of the wind army was repeatedly frustrated.
Tang Yin only looked at the siege on that day, so he was not interested in watching it any more. Although there was no progress in the strong attack on that day, in Tang Yin's view, the overall situation was settled and there was no suspense.
The difference in military strength between the two sides is too great. Even if they don't fight down on the first day, it will be difficult for the Angolan army to survive their own attack on the second and third days.
He only needs to see Liu Zhang's ability to command the war.
That night, after the Fengjun troops returned to the camp, Liu Zhang looked for Tang Yin again. Tang Yin had disappeared from the camp. Together with ah San and ah Si, they also disappeared.
Liu Zhang was frightened and flustered. The king disappeared in his barracks. What's wrong? He hurried to find Yin LAN and Ren Xiao, who accompanied Tang Yin, and asked him where the two kings had gone.
Ren smiled and didn't speak. Yin Lan said, "the king went to Fenshui city and said to inquire about the situation there first!"
Liu Zhang was shocked and hurriedly asked, "how many soldiers and horses does the king have?"
Yin Lan said, "there are only three generals and four generals."
"What? The king took only two people to Fenshui city? What if he met the enemy? Why didn't you stop him?" Liu Zhang was in a hurry. He blushed and roared at Yin LAN.
Yin LAN is also full of grievances. The king wants to go. She can stop it if she wants to! At this time, Ren smiled and said, "General Liu, don't be nervous. You shouldn't worry about your king, but the enemy in Fenshui city!"
Liu Zhang still respected Ren Xiao, the son of Shenchi. Calm down and think about it, he also made sense. With the king's Lingwu, even if he ran into the enemy, he would have no problem running away.
Thinking of this, he felt a little at ease. Then he shook his head and sighed, smiled bitterly and said, "it seems that the king is very dissatisfied with my command and operation today, and he is too lazy to watch it any more."
Ren smiled and said, "General Liu can guess wrong this time. In my opinion, if you are really dissatisfied with your command and operation, your highness Feng will not leave the barracks, but will stay and supervise the operation in person. The reason why your highness Feng can leave for Fenshui city just shows that he is very relieved of your command and operation and feels that he has left here without concern."
Liu Zhang's eyes brightened when he heard the speech, and his gloomy mood suddenly brightened. He patted his head hard and said with a self mocking smile: "Oh, I'm really confused! Thank you for reminding me. I can also be at ease."
He smiled but didn't say anything, but there was a little more gloom in his eyes.
Tang Yin said he was going to Fenshui city to inquire about intelligence, but there are two intelligence agencies in Fengjun, Tianyan and geonet. Where does he need to go out in person to inquire about military intelligence? And he only took ah San and ah Si. It was so secret that there must be another secret.
The only secret that Ren Xiao can think of now is that Tang Yin wants to borrow Fenshui city to improve his cultivation. There are 30000 troops in Fenshui city. For Tang Yin, who is eager to break through the realm of cultivation, that is 30000 holy medicines, tonics and delicious food.
Thirty thousand creatures... Ren Xiao lamented in his heart.
Ren Xiao and Tang Yin haven't known each other for a long time, but they really know Tang Yin very well. This time, he guessed right. Tang Yin quietly went to Fenshui City, not to inquire about intelligence, but to improve his cultivation.
Fengjun is now attacking Lishi city. Fenshui city is very calm, and there are no Fengjun around. Relatively speaking, Fenshui city's defense is relatively lax, which just gives Tang Yin a chance to sneak attack.
In the early morning, before dawn, it was the time when the night watchmen were most tired and sleepy. The spiritual practitioners standing at the head of the city also took back their insight, leaned weakly against the arrow stack and nodded with their heads down.
An Jun spiritual cultivator was half asleep and half awake when he suddenly felt the fluctuation of spiritual pressure around him. That was the reaction of the spiritual cultivator who suddenly appeared in front of him.
He was startled. He quickly opened his eyes and wanted to see what was going on, but he only felt a flower in front of him. Then, a burning palm of black flame went straight into his throat.
Hoo! The black fire burned all over him in an instant. He opened his mouth and wanted to shout, but he couldn't shout a word. The palm inserted into his throat had cut off his trachea.
His body fell down softly, his helmet fell and fell on the stone bricks of the city wall, making a crisp clatter. Hearing the sound, the dozing garrison around opened their hazy eyes and looked up.
I saw that people's confused eyes suddenly widened, but their pupils suddenly contracted. Their spiritual practitioners fell to the ground, and beside them, there was a "monster".
Looking at the body shape, it should be human, but there are black flames burning all over the body. What's more frightening is that there are two strange and frightening green lights flashing in the black fire.
"Demon... Demon, monster... Yes... It's a monster!" An an Jun was so hairy that he screamed with cool wind on his back.
It's better for him not to shout. With this cry, the two green lights slowly turned around and looked at him directly. The ANN army was scared to death. With a howl, he jumped up from the ground and turned around and ran away. He was fast, and the 'monster' was faster. He rushed behind him in an instant and inserted his hand knife into his back heart.
Plop! Another body fell to the ground under the burning of black fire. The surrounding Anjun's scalp was numb and his legs were soft. Mommy, they screamed one after another and fled in all directions.
"Monster" obviously didn't mean to let them go. With the sound of rustle, two more waning moon shaped machetes appeared in his hands. With the machete, the black fire on his palm spread to the blade. His body was fast, like electricity and ghosts, looming and appearing around the Anjun, while the Anjun who fled in a hurry was shrouded in black fire one by one, Many people were burning black fire all over. They continued to run forward for a few steps before falling to the ground. White aura came out of them and was in the air.
Hundreds of Angolan soldiers came to the end in an instant. The wounds of each body were different, but the skin was the same pale, and even the black pupils turned the same gray.
The night was still quiet, and the murderous spirit spread on the head of the city. The bodies on the ground were everywhere, but there was no bloody smell. A black fire stood among the corpses, and the two green lights became brighter and brighter. The whole scene was strange and terrible.
At this time, footsteps came from under the city wall. An soldier with incomplete armor came out of the camp from a distance, looked at the city head and asked, "Hey, it's not dawn yet. What are you doing on the city head?"
No one answered. He didn't see anyone at the head of the city. Just when he was secretly surprised, a mass of black fog suddenly appeared around him out of thin air. Then, the black fog condensed into a shape. His mouth slowly opened and was about to shout, and the other party's knife had crossed his neck first.
There was no blood. The corpse that had evaporated all the essence was paralyzed like a pile of mud. The shadow didn't look at the corpse on the ground. After absorbing the aura in the air, he walked into the camp with his double knives
When it was daybreak, Fenshui City burst into a pot, rumors were everywhere, and the atmosphere of terror enveloped everyone in the city.
Near the city wall of the North City, the city wall was full of Angolan soldiers, but the whole scene was silent and terrible. People looked at the bottom of the city wall with dignified expression and straight eyes.
Under the city wall, there were thousands of corpses neatly arranged in a large area, including ordinary Angolan soldiers, spiritual practitioners and generals in the Angolan army. Their wounds were different, including knife wounds and claw wounds, but one thing was the same. Their blood seemed to be sucked dry by something in an instant.
"Who can tell me what happened in Beicheng last night?" Overnight, thousands of defenders at the north gate were killed. Wei Ling, the chief General of Fenshui city and the head of Gurao County, glared at the soldiers present and gritted her teeth and roared.
No one knows what happened here in Beicheng, when the enemy came, and how he killed so many people on his own side. A general trembled: "Report back to your excellency. This morning, the brothers who changed their posts came to the North City and saw their bodies. Many brothers died in the camp without armor or weapons. Obviously, they were killed in their sleep. If the enemy attacked, it would be impossible to be so silent, and it would be impossible to run after fighting. In addition, looking at the bodies, there were wounds on many brothers It's not fatal, but the blood was sucked dry. It's obviously... It's obviously not the enemy... It's not capable of human beings. It's estimated that last night, there was a ghost in the north city! "
As soon as this remark came out, all the people present were excited to fight a cold war. Their faces were bloodless and their bodies were cold.
"Nonsense!" Wei Ling said angrily, "there are no ghosts in the world. If you dare to deceive the public and disturb the morale of our army again, I will be killed!"
The general trembled with fear. He dared not say a word more and bowed his head and retreated.
"Bury the bodies of these brothers well. Tonight, cheer up for me. Double the sentry in all four cities and arrange special personnel to patrol, okay?" Wei Ling clenched her fist and said.
"Yes, my Lord!" All the generals responded.
Wei Ling can hold down the morale of the garrison, but she can't hold down the hearts of the people in the city.
Rumors that ghosts killed thousands of soldiers overnight spread rapidly among the people. Under great fear, people naturally want to find the object to vent.
Soon, some people put forward that Yueze had been punished by heaven for disordering the royal family and being unjust. However, the garrison of Fenshui city continued to be loyal to the monarch here, so it attracted ghosts and monsters to make trouble. This is completely retribution.
Defending the city, especially when the weak resist the strong, needs the army and the people as one. Once the army and the people are centrifugal, it is difficult for the city to defend any longer.
At this time, Fenshui city is facing such an embarrassing situation.
