The direct army entered Xishankou and advanced extremely smoothly without encountering resistance from any soldier. Tang Yin was also very ambitious and said boldly to the surrounding generals: "Today, our army will break through Fengyang City within ten days."

, capture the entire territory of Xishan County. Although Xishan County is not our pre-planned target, this county is a major grain-producing county in Mo State. Since we have pursued the enemy here, we can capture it conveniently. It can also provide our army with supplies in the future.

There’s a lot of food and grass!”

"Haha——" All the generals looked up and laughed, and they all echoed: "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty, you have overestimated Mo's army! It took ten days to capture this county. I, the general Dafeng, only passed by once and easily captured this county and captured the leader of the thieves!"

"Haha!" Feng Jiang's heroic words caused another burst of laughter.

At this time, a soldier came to report, saying that it was Shao Jun who wanted to see me. Tang Yin was just slightly startled, and said with a smile: "The war is about to begin, what will this rat do to me? No!" After speaking, he looked around the generals and asked

He said: "Which general is willing to take the lead in capturing Fengyang?"

"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to be the vanguard!" With a loud shout, the war tiger came out with a hammer and asked for a tassel to go into battle.

Before Tang Yin could speak, Li Sheng on the side stepped forward and said: "How can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife? General Zhan Hu is the general of our army. It is only a small town in Fengyang. It is enough for the general to go there!"

Tang Yin smiled leisurely, nodded towards Li Sheng, and said to Zhan Hu: "Zhan Hu, you'd better follow me to win the battle. Let Li Sheng fight the first battle!"

Li Sheng was a young general selected by Tang Yin in his military conquest order. Compared with the accomplished Zhan Hu, he needed military exploits to prove his worth in the army.

Zhan Hu is not a stupid person, and Tang Yin has already said so, so he can no longer force it, so he intervenes and says: "General, I will obey!"

Tang Yin sent Li Sheng 20,000 soldiers as his own vanguard to take the lead in attacking Fengyang.

In the eyes of Tang Yin and other generals, Mo Jun was scared out of his wits by his own side. There were so many fortresses in the Xishan Pass, and the checkpoints were not even defended. Fengyang City's defense was not much stronger. Although he did not dare to say that he could leave.

You can grab it as soon as you pass it, but it's definitely no problem to take it lightly.

But when Feng Jun approached Fengyang, everyone was dumbfounded.

Fengyang was built within the Xishan Pass, with mountains on both sides and a city in the middle. The city wall was as high as ten meters. This was nothing. The most terrible thing was that the canyon at Xishan Pass was not straight, but winding.

Yes, there happens to be a big curve about a hundred steps in front of Fengyang City. In other words, the Feng Army's trebuchets and city-breaking crossbows cannot directly attack Fengyang City. If you want to attack Fengyang City,

Fengyang's city defense must go over this bend and get within a hundred steps of others. In addition, Fengyang is still built on a gentle slope. Although the slope is not large, it is too much for the siege personnel.

It will cause some resistance to some extent.

After seeing the topography of Fengyang, Li Sheng, as a pioneer, couldn't help but take a breath. It was such a unique city that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. The danger of this city was even higher than Tongmen and Baguan!

Seeing the solemn look on Li Sheng's face, the two corps commanders who came with him asked: "General Li, Fengyang is dangerous, should we fight?"

Li Sheng came back to his senses, glared at the two men, and said: "Even if Fengyang is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, we must take this city today!" After a pause, he ordered: "Send to my generals and attack the city with the whole army!

"

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom – with Li Sheng’s order, the drums in the Fengjun camp started to sound louder. In the valley, the drums became extremely loud and the echoes lingered for a long time. As the drums sounded,

, the two regiments of the Feng Army slowly walked out from behind the bend and pushed straight towards Fengyang City ahead.

The shooting range of bows and arrows is a hundred steps, and as the defensive side of the city, due to the advantage of height, the shooting range is longer. It can be said that the Feng army turned the corner and was within the shooting range of Fengyang as soon as it showed its head.

However, the Feng Army's advance did not attract the Mo Army's arrows. Looking at the Fengyang City in the distance, they could only see flags filled with banners, but no trace of Mo Army's men.

Li Sheng, who was advancing with the army, was confused and couldn't figure out what was going on. Logically speaking, Mo Jun's arrow shooting should have started long ago, but why there was no movement, not even a shadow of a ghost.

Could it be that Mo Jun in the city knew he was outmatched and abandoned the city and fled? If so, his role as a pioneer officer would be too boring.

He was thinking in his mind, and before he knew it, the Feng army at the front was fifty steps closer to Fengyang.

At this moment, people suddenly heard a dull buzzing sound coming from above their heads. The Feng soldiers subconsciously raised their eyes and looked up, only to see a huge black shadow flying down from the sky. People had not yet figured out what it was.

What, a huge black shadow has pressed down on the Feng Army camp. A muffled roar was heard in the ears. The three Feng soldiers who were hit by the black shadow did not even say a word. They turned into meat cakes on the spot, and blood spurted out.

There was a huge area, and it was only then that people could see clearly that what fell from the sky was a round boulder.

The boulder did not stop after it fell. With the inertia of falling and the gentle slope outside Fengyang City, the boulder continued to roll forward. The Feng soldiers standing in front of the boulder just wanted to dodge, but it was already too late. The boulder ruthlessly rolled away from them.

They ran over them physically, and for a moment, Feng Jun screamed and screamed.

This is just the beginning. With waves of buzzing sounds, Fengyang City keeps flying up round boulders, flying over the city wall and slamming towards the Fengjun camp. This is not counting the Fengyang City Head Sentol.

The sound was heard everywhere, and countless Mo troops stood up behind the arrow stacks, aiming at the outside of the city, and fired random arrows.

In just an instant, the Feng Army camps of the two regiments were thrown into chaos. Huge boulders falling from the sky bloomed everywhere in the Feng Army camp, crushing the Feng Army soldiers mercilessly. People managed to avoid the rolling rocks.

The boulder was hit by dense arrows again.

The soldiers of the Feng Army fell to the ground in groups. There were corpses shot into hedgehogs and broken limbs that were crushed to pieces throughout the camp. People were wailing and screaming one after another. The condition was too horrific to be seen.

.

Oops! The Mo army did not abandon the city, but had already prepared for their own attack! Li Sheng, while on horseback, was firing arrows to avoid falling rocks, and at the same time issued an order: "The whole army forms an array, release arrows and shoot back! Let the rear army

Bring up all the trebuchets and city-breaking crossbows and smash Fengyang’s city defenses for me!”

It was easy for him to say it, but how could the Feng army form an array at this time?

The boulders thrown out from Fengyang City are the biggest threat to the Feng Army's formation. The boulders weighing hundreds of kilograms cannot be resisted by the shield array. Once they are hit or crushed by them, the Feng Army soldiers will be destroyed.

Even the people and shields were crushed together. The most important point of the formation was to maintain the integrity of the overall formation. If a loophole appeared, they might be subject to concentrated arrows from the enemy. Not to mention that after the boulder attack, the Feng Army camp was full of enemies.

It was a loophole, and the Feng army concentrated in formation would only become a target for the Mo army on the city.

In addition, the trebuchets and city-breaking crossbows launched by the Feng Army were not much better. Mo Jun on Fengyang City was able to shoot the arrows directly. Before the Feng Army's trebuchets and city-breaking crossbows were launched,

The surrounding Feng soldiers were all shot to death first, and there were also a large number of rockets fired at the racks of the trebuchet and the city-breaking crossbow. As long as a few rockets were hit, a trebuchet or the city-breaking crossbow could be destroyed in an instant.

The crossbow will be burned, and it will be too late for the soldiers to save it despite the rain of arrows.

Under the leadership of Li Sheng, the two corps of the Directly Affiliated Army, let alone launch any offensive against Fengyang, even self-protection is a problem. Under such circumstances, someone else would have ordered the withdrawal long ago, and this battle would not be fought at all.

He went down, but Li Sheng was unwilling to give in. He finally found an opportunity to make a contribution. If he was beaten back by the enemy before he even reached the edge of the city, how could he have the dignity to go back and report to the king?

At the critical moment, Li Sheng temporarily organized a group of death squads and personally led more than a dozen spiritual cultivators and more than a thousand elite soldiers to launch a strong attack on Fengyang City, intending to tear a hole in the opponent's defense line.

They held shields in one hand and knives and swords in the other. While charging forward, they kept dodging falling boulders and blocking flying arrows.

Soon, the Mo army on the top of the city also discovered this small group of wind troops rushing forward crazily. They naturally became the target of the Mo army's concentrated attack.

On the top of the city, the arrows flying towards them were as dense as raindrops. Even though the soldiers of the Feng Army held shields to block, some people still fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. In this case, once they fell to the ground, they could not get up again.

If they don't get up, the dense array of arrows will cover them mercilessly.

What a fierce arrow shot! Li Sheng secretly exclaimed while charging, this is not the Mo army that his side encountered two or three days ago, it is simply a regular central army of a country! The oncoming arrow rain made him unable to

With the extra energy to think carefully, at this time, he only wanted to rush to Fengyang City, then climb up and engage in close combat with the enemy.

Li Sheng's spiritual martial arts was good, but under the continuous arrows, the spiritual armor on his body couldn't stand it. When he rushed to less than thirty steps away from Fengyang City, the spiritual armor on his body was also hit by the arrows.

It has been shot so many times that it is covered with cracks and may be completely broken at any time.

He wanted to continue to charge forward. At this time, the two corps commanders who were following him in the charge stepped forward and shouted: "General Li, the enemy's arrow formation is fierce. We can't withstand it. We must withdraw quickly!"

Li Sheng raised his shield high and turned around and shouted angrily: "No retreat! Just follow me and charge to the top of the city to kill the enemy!"

"General Li, how can you rush to the city when all your brothers are almost dead! General Li, retreat first!" a regiment leader shouted.

Li Sheng took a closer look and saw that behind him, there were only about a hundred people left. There were corpses everywhere on the ground. Most of the thousands of death squads had been killed by Mo Jun's arrow array, including the soldiers who were running away carrying the ladders.

.

Oops! When Li Sheng saw this, he couldn't help but lament in his heart. Before he could make a decision whether to attack or retreat, a flying arrow hit him in the left shoulder.

This arrow became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Li Sheng's spiritual armor could no longer bear it. With a crisp click, the spiritual armor on his left shoulder shattered and the arrow penetrated deeply into his flesh.
