Early the next morning, the sound of heavy footsteps came from a distance, which startled Zhao Pan, who was sitting on the wall of Zhenyuan City in person at this time, "Here he comes! Quick, sound the alarm!!"

Listening to the sound of the alarm bell ringing in his ears, Luo Ji, who was sitting in the military camp at this time, was not too surprised. He almost expected that the other party would definitely come.

Because today is the seventh day, in other words, players on the invading side can obtain retreat permission today.

One battle will determine the outcome. If you can win a big victory, then continue to attack the enemy's main city all the way. On the contrary, if you can't defeat it, then give up and retreat quickly.

Under normal circumstances, players will do this. After all, once the invasion time exceeds seven days, the initiative advantage of the invading player will suddenly become weaker.

Originally, according to Luo Ji's idea, he had no intention of letting this Li Yuanjie go if he could beat the opponent. This was a special civilization. For him, it was a delicious meal, more delicious than those of ordinary civilizations.

Lots of delicious meals.

However, the way the other party returned the bodies of Liu Zheng and others two days ago showed a certain degree of morality and grace, which made Luo Ji feel a little uncertain at this time.

"Forget it, let's fight it down first. The worst we can do is capture it alive! It's rare to encounter a special civilization. If you pass this village, there won't be a shop like this."

Without further hesitation, with a decisive thought flashing through his mind, Luo Ji rode the prairie fire straight to the wall. When he climbed onto the city wall, Li Yuanjie's orc army was still far away.

It's not because the orc army advanced too slowly, but because they were exposed too early. The weight of the three elephant-man slingers and the roar they made when their footsteps fell were enough to hide it even if they wanted to.

Living.

But the other party probably doesn't care. Anyway, Li Yuanjie's orc army is an army that is good at facing the front. With such a ferocious giant unit like the Elephant Man, there is no need to be timid from the beginning.

"Your Majesty." Seeing Luo Ji coming up, Zhao Pan, Luo Yong, Zhou Ming and others all bowed and saluted.

Luo Ji waved his hand, then called Zhao Pan over and ordered, "Put off the battle until the eighth day."

Zhao Pan's pupils shrank when he heard this. He had fought so many times with those outside invaders. Of course they knew the information that these outsiders could retreat on the seventh day, and Luo Ji now undoubtedly didn't want to let them go.

The other party just retreated completely. It seems that their Majesty wants to fight with this orc army with real swords and guns.

Zhao Pan, who understood this meaning, immediately clasped his fists and said, "I will finally understand!"

After giving orders to Zhao Pan, Luo Ji felt that he basically only needed to be a human buff here for the next city defense battle. After all, Zhao Pan, who had been guarding Iron Wall City for a long time, was now in the city defense battle.

In terms of experience, I'm afraid he is already stronger than him.

As his thoughts whirled, Luo Ji quickly raised the telescope in his hand and looked into the distance. As the distance got closer, the figures of the three giant elephant men gradually became clearer.

Luo Ji had imagined the appearance of an elephant man many times before, but when he actually saw this kind of creature that only existed in fantasy, he still couldn't help but feel a wave of panic in his heart.

The soldiers on the top of the Shangyuan City wall were making a commotion. Even Zhou Ming, the general who defended Shangyuan City, looked dumbfounded at the moment. While he was shocked by the existence of these monsters, he was also marveling at the presence of these monsters.

The magic of the world is really just as His Majesty said, the world is so big and full of wonders!

Luo Ji's previous vaccination had obviously worked. After changing the labels on these orcs from 'monsters' to 'creatures', everyone's fear was undoubtedly greatly reduced.

In addition, Luo Ji was personally on the front line, and combined with Zhao Pan's talent of being "immovable as a mountain" to stabilize morale, the soldiers defending Shangyuan City were able to keep their composure for a while.

It had obviously been decided long ago that the commanding task of this city defense battle would be handed over to Zhao Pan, who had a certain amount of battle experience. Luo Ji's main purpose today was to observe. He wanted to personally observe the behavior of this orc army.

strength.

After all, the moment he confirmed that the other party was a special civilization, Luo Ji had already considered annexing the other party's civilization. However, under this premise, there was something he couldn't figure out.

That is, after annexing the orc civilization, will the flaws of this civilization affect his civilization? The most direct impact is to lower the productivity and development speed of his civilization.

After all, there was no such precedent before, so Luo Ji simply prepared for the worst, and on the premise of having an impact, was it worth it to swallow up the orc civilization and obtain the orc arms?

After Li Yuanjie commanded his orc army to advance to a certain distance, he rested for a while, and then apparently directly launched an siege.

Three elephant slingers were at the front of the team, but what was different from the last time was that this time, Li Yuanjie directly ordered the tauren, kobolds and werewolf warriors to advance behind the elephant slingers, even his own

The 'own sons' were sent out directly, and their posture made it clear that they wanted to forcefully attack Shangyuan City directly.

Facing this battle, Luo Ji glanced at Zhao Pan. Zhao Pan was still calm and quickly commanded the three-bow crossbow on the wall to adjust its position. He adopted a tactic of defeating them one by one and asked them to focus on one of the elephant men.

By the way, according to Zhao Pan, there are a total of seven three-bow bed crossbows placed on the top of the Shangyuan City wall at the moment!

Originally, there were only five planes placed, and the other two were brought up temporarily after he learned of Luo Ji's idea of ​​delaying the attack until the eighth day.

Just like the deployment of city defense forces, in city defense battles, the more large ordnance such as three-bow crossbows, the better. Because the three-bow crossbows are large in size, they will occupy the space on the wall.

At the same time, the three-bow bed crossbow takes a lot of time every time the heavy crossbow arrows are reloaded. During this gap, you need to rely on slingers and archers to suppress the advancement of the enemy's siege army.

Once the numbers of these two arms are not enough to form enough suppressive force, then the two or three intervals between reloading the heavy crossbows will be enough for the opponent's siege army to push him down in one breath.

Zhao Pan had made a dangerous move this time. Luo Ji could probably guess what he wanted to do. Since today was not the time to fight to the death with these monsters, he would temporarily give up suppressing the enemy's large forces and fight for

While taking the opportunity to severely damage the Elephant Man's slingers, it is a good strategy to show the enemy's weakness, conserve strength, and quickly end today's siege battle.
