In the west of Ledeska City, a unit was moving towards Ledeska City. This unit was naturally Leilo's army. At this time, Leilo himself was in the team, and he was also a soldier. Although he did not inherit the title, he was still confident in his skills. He naturally had to come in person this battle that determined his future destiny.
"Sir, I received the report." At this time, a person next to him approached Lei Luo and said to the other party: "There is news from the city that the boy Serina has begun to organize defense."
"Oh? It seems that I guessed that I was coming to deal with him." Of course, Lei Luo was not surprised. It was normal for the other party to guess this, "What did he do?"
"He recruited militias." The subordinate immediately reported, "I didn't expect that his appeal was pretty good, and there were thousands of people willing to join his troops."
"Recruiting militias?" Lei Luo nodded. Yes, this was not beyond his expectations. He had known how many people there were. He probably knew how many people there were on his side, so the other party would definitely recruit people. Unfortunately, it was just this trick. Thousands of militias sounded very intimidating, but Lei Luo of course also knew the combat effectiveness of militias. To be honest, these people are not considered militias at all. What kind of soldiers have they not trained? They are just peasants holding weapons. What combat effectiveness can they have?
The subordinates were not nervous about this incident, but continued to report: "Some of our people also got in, but the surprise attack troops were still enough. When our large troops started to attack, they would help us open the city gate. At that time, these militias... would not be any threat. Ledeska City is ours."
"Well..." Lei Luo nodded, but immediately said, "Although they are all in our plan, don't be too careless. After all, we have no siege weapons in this attack. If the opponent prevents us from opening the city gate, we will fall into a tough battle. Although we have a lot of people, if we cannot open the city gate quickly, we can win by slowly making siege weapons, but it only gives the opponent a chance to breathe. If it is from the west..."
"Yes, sir." The subordinate nodded, "But it seems that they have not yet asked for help, and we are also prepared, right? The opponent's regular army did not participate in the defense of the city gate. I think the opponent should have this force stationed in the center of the city. When the gate is attacked, the opponent will arrive there. As long as we let our spies attack a fake location in advance, when the opponent rushes over, our troops will attack the real target, and the opponent will not be able to react at that time."
"Well..." Lei Luo nodded and thought about it carefully. There seemed to be no problem with this plan. "Then where should we attack from?"
"From the current situation, the opponent's troops' defense branch, the west gate has a militia defense of 400 people, which is the key defense position. It is not conducive to attacking from here. Although the militia troops have no combat effectiveness, they have a large number of people and will take a long time to defeat them. Therefore, if you attack from here, the opponent's troops are likely to arrive in time and may not be able to open the city gate at that time." said the subordinate.
"Well, then where should I go?" Lei Luo nodded and asked.
"From the current intelligence, the south has the least number of defense personnel, with only 100 militia troops." said the subordinate.
"100 people?" Lei Luo was stunned at first, and then immediately understood why there were fewer people in the south, because there was a large plain in the south, and there was no barrier to vision at all. Standing on the city gate, you could see a very far place. So if their troops appeared in the south, the other party would be discovered early. Once they discovered, the other party was coming from several other sects, it would be too late.
"It seems that the other party is not stupid either." Lei Luo nodded. The other party does not seem stupid either. He knows how to arrange a limited number of people. Unfortunately, he has already planned it, and struggles and so on are useless.
"Sir, my subordinate has a plan." The subordinate suddenly said.
"I also have a plan. I don't know if it's the same as you think. Tell me out." Lei Luo said with a smile.
"Sir, we pretend to attack from the south to attract the opponent's troops, and then while the opponent's troops were attracted, we sent another unit to kill from their weak position and directly open the city gate..." said the subordinate, "I happened to know a path that can detour the east side of the city, and the east side of the city is a mountainous area. The opponent would not have thought that we would go around there..."
"Hahahaha, OK... It's true that it's like me."
"Sir, wise." The subordinate said quickly.
So the plan here was also carried out quickly. In the evening of that day, Lei Luo's troops appeared in the south of Ledeska City. Of course, this situation was soon discovered by the people in the city. However, the opponent attacked the city directly before he arrived. After all, marching requires physical strength. It is estimated that after a little rest, he will attack the city.
Of course, what the people in the city didn't know was that Lei Luo was waiting for the news. When the sun set, he also received the news.
"Sir, the plan has been successful. The other party has drawn 200 people from the other three city gates to defend the south. Now there are 700 militia troops gathered in the south, and the defenses of the other gates are very weak." said the subordinate.
"Haha, it's still very tender, where is the other party's regular army?" Lei Luo said.
"It hasn't appeared yet. It seems that we are afraid that we will go around other doors and are probably still on standby."
"Okay, now you will take the people around the east. When it's almost dawn, I will launch an attack first, so it's best to attract the opponent's attention. Then you will also take the opportunity to launch an attack, cooperate with the people in the city to open the east gate and take the city." Lei Luo said.
"Yes, sir." The subordinate nodded.
So the subordinates here quickly ordered the troops to set off. Of course, they were very careful when they left. As mentioned before, although the southern part of Ledeska City is a great plain and has a good view, it is now evening. No matter how good the vision is, you cannot see everything. Lei Luo took advantage of the darkness and wind to let his troops leave the battalion. On the other hand, he pretended that his troops were still there, and continued to explore the city's intelligence. His spies would also send him some reports from time to time. The news he received at present was that the other party's troops did not move, as if they had not noticed their movements.
"Boy, you will die as soon as it dawns. This title that should belong to me is finally back in my hands." Lei Luo said with a smile.
On the other hand, Leilo's surprise attack troops had already entered the mountains and moved towards the east of Ledesca City along the mountain road. The terrain here was not that difficult to walk, it was called a mountain range. But as mentioned before, Ledesca City was a plain city, so the mountain next to it was just such a short mountain, which was not dangerous, but mainly at night, they did not dare to trench or something, so the speed of travel was not very fast.
"Sir, can this place really work?" A subordinate here also asked the leading general, "The surrounding terrain..."
"Don't worry." The general said directly, "The other party would definitely not have thought that we would appear from here. As long as we suddenly appear in the east and cooperate with the people in the city to open the city gate, we will win. At that time, Lord Lei Luo will get the title, you and me..."
There was a loud "boom" sound, and before he could finish his words, a huge sound suddenly came from the front, as if some heavy object had fallen to the ground. The general here looked up and saw that with the moonlight, he probably saw a lot of things, trees, stones and the like, which seemed to fall from above, blocking the road ahead of them.
"this……"
With a "boom", before he could react, a loud noise suddenly appeared behind him, a sound similar to that just now. I don't have to see what happened. The general's face turned pale. He looked at the surrounding terrain and instantly felt a cold sweat. The surrounding terrain was really... so suitable for ambushing. There are mountains next to it, and there are roads in front and behind. There are blockages at both ends. Aren't they the turtle in the jar?
To be honest, he was a little careless when he walked into this kind of place, but he really didn't expect that he would be ambushed. There were only a few people on the other side, and they would take the initiative to attack. Who would have thought of this? If you take another step back, how could the other side know that they would take this path? Judging from this situation, the other side didn't suddenly find them and then attacked them. This blocked thing has to be prepared for a long time. No matter how you look at it, they have planned it, but... how did you know their route?
"Kill!" At this moment, the sound he didn't want to hear appeared. Sure enough, with a command, the sound of "boom boom" around him sounded, and a large number of stones began to fall, heading towards his troops. Sure enough, the other party had already been ready to ambush here, and even the stones were ready, but what was going on.
"Enemy attack!"
"Run!" Suddenly, the troops here became in chaos immediately. However, the problem was... when they ran there, they were blocked from front to back. Was they climbing the mountain against the falling stones? The troops suddenly entered a state of chaos, and the soldiers began to run around, like headless flies, but people continued to fall.
