Seven hundred and fortieth chapters dusty past
However, there are exceptions in everything. There are still many small cities that are captured when the opponent has only a ladder in his hands, or are conquered in a night attack.
In addition to these methods, there is a more primitive method, which is to pile up dirt or any other kind of materials into a mound at the lower part of the opponent's city wall, and let the soldiers attack the city from the mound.
In the Asura realm, more than one city has been conquered by such rough means.
When Emperor Asura was still alive, he ordered his demons to carry the baggage and piled up at the foot of the city wall because of the siege. He finally attacked the enemy city from the piled hill.
Wu Feng has been giving the instructor a fascination these days. Although there is no news from the above, it will be known that the legion that originally attacked the city gate will be handed over to Wu Feng for training.
This legion had no commander and now he did not send a commander, but he handed over all the training of the legion to Wu Feng, which proved the importance he valued.
Near a hill more than 500 miles to the left of Rising Sun City, there is a small town called "Xibao City".
Like Nanbao City, this small city is a satellite city of Rising Sun City, but it is even more dilapidated than Rising Sun City.
Perhaps it is because of the war here that more of the reason, Xibao City was damaged by war and years, but now for the Firefighting Army, it is about to take action against such a small city.
After the sixth conquest of the heavens, Emperor Asura was on his way back, he was attacked by several Asura kings who were rebelled by the heavens, and Emperor Asura was trapped.
Several Asura kings forced Asura Emperor and asked Asura Emperor to recognize their autonomy. In order to get out of trouble as soon as possible and solve the spies in the heavenly realm, Asura Emperor pretended to agree.
And now there is a turbulent moment. The demons under the Asura Emperor's subordinates are actively carrying out redemption and salvation actions, while the Asura kings under his command are all standing by and even secretly contacting the enemy in order to trap death or extend the time for the Asura Emperor.
After a battle of wits and courage, Emperor Asura finally escaped. However, during the years he was trapped, many areas under Emperor Asura had lost their power, and the territory and strength of those Asura kings were greatly enhanced.
After these Asura kings grew their strength, they showed their ambitions and wanted to prove that Asura Emperor was no longer the Asura Emperor who controls the entire Asura realm. They were determined to remove Asura Emperor and rule the entire Asura realm.
After all, Asura Emperor once ruled the Asura realm for many years, and had a strong authority and many Asura support. As soon as he escaped from the trap, he launched a counterattack without stopping, recapturing most areas, and even placing several Asura kings.
Kill directly.
Emperor Asura had a keen strategic awareness and knew in his heart that to consolidate the rule of the conquered areas, he must strengthen control over the main road trunks.
Because other Asura's armies can gather together through major traffic channels to attack cities controlled by Asura King.
Therefore, after weighing and considering the pros and cons, the construction of fortress became the only choice. In addition, the area of Xibaocheng is located in a very good geographical location and is a strategic location for the Asura Emperor, Xibaocheng came into being.
Construction began soon, and tens of thousands of craftsmen became busy, and the entire construction site was like a beehive.
Emperor Asura did not allow any delay, and he was not allowed to rest in normal times. This huge castle was completed in just a few years, but if you want to prove yourself, you still need to pass the test of war.
Xibao City is located above the hills, with a relatively open area on the southeast side, which is conducive to the enemy's offensive operations. In order to make up for this shortcoming, Emperor Asura specially ordered the construction of a triangular castle field. This castle field has ten tall towers to guard the walls. The walls of the tower are piled up in circles to resist the impact of siege weapons. They are also equipped with trench machines to attack the siege equipment of the French army. Some towers have small Gothic spires, making the Gayar Castle unique.
Arrow warships, city walls and towers are all essential facilities, and they attack the enemy in three-dimensional manner from different heights and angles, which greatly strengthens the role of archers.
The Neiburg Field and the Neiburg Field are surrounded by moats, and some areas are extremely deep, and stretchable iron bridges connect the Neiburg Field and the Neiburg Field.
The defense system of the inner castle field is generally the same as that of the outer castle field, but its towers are taller and naturally there are more numbers.
The heart of the entire Xibao City is the main fort and the main tower. It is taller and has a separate moat. There is an inextensible chalk stone bridge leading to the city gate. This is the last refuge. If the enemy army attacks here, they have to rely on the tall main tower to fight to the death.
Overall, Xibao City has a complete defense system, moats, towers, suspension bridges, arrow bushes, etc., but due to hasty rush to work, the project level is far from reaching the level of perfection, and defects are inevitable.
With his military talent and rich combat experience, Asura Emperor repeatedly defeated the army of other Asura kings and maintained the integrity of the Asura realm.
For example, the generals under the charge of guarding Xibao City were also loyal to Emperor Asura.
But unfortunately, God is jealous of talent. When this general suppressed a rebellious small town, he was unfortunately shot by an arrow. He did not dodge or avoid the arrows he shot, but instead used gestures to reward the Asura warrior who shot him.
What's more serious is that you can take the arrow under your hands
After pulling it out from his body, I found that there was a strange poison on the arrow stick.
The wound worsened and the general passed away soon.
This general is a brave general under Emperor Asura. He followed Emperor Asura for his whole life and was invincible, but he lost his life because of his rashness. This is really a pity.
This sudden accident was simply a disaster, causing chaos in Xibao City.
In times of crisis, the general's wife stepped forward and actively assisted the general's son to ascend the throne to maintain the dominance of his family.
Compared to his legendary father, his son's military talent was mediocre. He emphasized the royal power, but he could not make achievements on the battlefield, and was helpless in the face of rebel subordinates in the city.
When the general died, the deputy general of Xibaocheng had many years of rich governance experience.
Faced with the internal and external troubles, Xibao City firmly seized this opportunity and won many small cities near Xibao City with lightning speed.
Faced with the fierce attack of the deputy general, many city masters simply gave up the city, and Xibao City became the boss of this area, and the situation suddenly became very good.
At this time, the enemy army came unscrupulously because the general was dead. After reaching the city, they surrounded him and did not attack.
The enemy plundered the small city near Xibao City and drove the Asura army in the small city to escape to Xibao City. The son of the general, the new Asura king Lei Ban, allowed them to enter Xibao City to take refuge.
The deputy general once followed the Asura Emperor during the fifth conquest of the heavens and was deeply trusted by the latter. Otherwise, the Asura Emperor would not have handed over a strategic location like Xibao City to him as the deputy general to guard the situation.
The enemy soon came to the city, and the early battles left Xibao City isolated and helpless, so the enemy used the battle method of siege and not attacking.
In this way, they can minimize their own losses and achieve strategic goals.
At this time, Lei Ban knew a little about his own situation. The troops and siege that fled into the city would inevitably accelerate food consumption. Although some soldiers guarding the city tried to leave the city at night to find food, they were dropping a drop in the bucket.
So Ray Ban made a decision, leaving the young and strong Asura warriors to supplement the city defense, and drove the rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled out of the castle.
The fugitives left the city in batches. At first, the enemy army was careless and actually let two groups of refugees go. When the enemy general learned about it, they immediately stopped it because the fugitives were an important bargaining chip for the two sides to play.
Most of the fugitives could not escape and had to return to the city, but the defending troops held weapons and aimed at them. In desperation, they had to spend the cold winter outside the city walls, and tree bark, grass roots, etc. became their food sources.
