The general who defended the city punched out, and the dark bat blocked it with its claws.
This sudden blow directly knocked the dark bat away.
Seizing this opportunity, the generals defending the city pestered and launched ferocious attacks continuously.
The dark bat kept retreating, and struck back from time to time.
The two strong men drifted apart.
Although they were more than ten kilometers away, the loud noises caused by their battle could still be heard by the distant beasts and soldiers.
…
The fierce fighting lasted for several hours, with both sides suffering casualties.
In the current situation, if the pig-headed people are negligent, they will inevitably be attacked by alien beasts.
Now every soldier guarding the city is very nervous, concentrating on guarding against possible surprise attacks by strange beasts.
The two powerful beings in the sky have been fighting for so long, and each other has suffered some injuries.
At this moment, they were staring at each other panting, not taking action for the time being, seizing the time to recover their spiritual energy and physical strength.
The pig-headed captain, who was hiding in the cave with a brown birthmark on his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the battle was in a stalemate.
If the hordes of alien beasts are coming with force, the most likely opportunity for them to attack Zecheng is to catch them by surprise at the beginning.
Once there is a stalemate, with the abundant supplies of the defenders, the alien beasts can be exhausted and forced to evacuate.
"According to the current situation, there should be no possibility of breaking the city."
"I hope no accidents will happen next."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead prayed in his heart, and then continued to focus on the fierce fighting battlefield in the distance.
Things developed just as he thought. After the situation on the battlefield of fierce fighting reached a stalemate, the pig-headed men defending the city began to gradually gain an advantage.
The alien beasts show signs of fatigue and have some intention of retreating. If they continue for a while, the ferocious alien beasts will most likely evacuate.
"roar……"
Suddenly there was a loud sound from the horizon, and the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead turned his head when he heard it.
As far as the eye can see, a group of flying dragons come into view.
Seeing these flying dragons, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead showed a surprised expression on his face.
They are dragoons. This unit is very powerful. They are flying from a distance at this time and will join the battle soon.
"So we called for reinforcements!"
"With these dragoons joining the battle, the alien beasts will definitely be defeated."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the menacing dragoons with a smile on his face. At this time, all the worries in his heart disappeared.
The jet-black bats who were fighting with the city-defending generals in the sky suddenly turned ugly when they saw the dragoons.
It also knows how big a blow it will bring to the alien beasts if the dragoons join the battle.
In order to reduce casualties, this powerful beast immediately conveyed the order.
The group of alien beasts that were attacking the city heard the order to retreat, immediately stopped attacking, and then quickly retreated far away.
The huge casualties did not break through the defensive position of the defenders. The alien beasts had long thought of retreating. When they received the order to retreat, they fled faster and faster.
However, the dragoons who rushed to the scene did not choose to give up, but chased the fleeing alien beasts and launched an attack.
"Should we rush out to help?" a soldier asked the superior next to him.
The difficult defense just now has turned around, and the grievances in their hearts are eager to be released. Each soldier stares at the escaping beasts jealously, hoping to get permission to pursue them.
Unfortunately, the general guarding the city had told his deputy before leaving that even if the situation turned against his side, he could not send troops to chase down the alien beasts without authorization.
He issued such an order in advance out of caution.
Although chasing down strange beasts is a relief, it is more important to guard the city wall without any accidents.
"Do not leave the city to pursue."
"Everyone should guard their own defenses."
"Treat the injured."
The order was issued, and the soldiers who wanted to go out of the city to hunt down the strange beasts were disappointed.
Then they put this matter aside for the time being and began to treat the injured companions around them.
Although this defensive battle was successful, many people were killed and injured.
Fortunately, a lot of supplies were prepared beforehand, and there were enough healing drugs. As long as they did not die on the spot, the injured soldiers could survive with the help of medical treatment.
"boom."
A loud roar erupted from the place where the defending generals were fighting the pitch-black bats. Because the distance was too far, no one knew what was happening.
Everyone still has great confidence in their own strongest man, knowing that although he cannot defeat a strong enemy, he will not be defeated.
After a while, the general who defended the city came back with bleeding wounds from many wounds.
He landed on the city wall, and a pig-headed warrior with awakened healing power hurriedly came to him and used the healing power to heal his injuries.
The wound was treated and the bleeding stopped immediately. At this time, the deputy general asked, "Sir, has the strange beast left?"
"Both that guy and I suffered losses. Seeing the arrival of the dragoons, the situation could not be reversed, so we left," said the general who defended the city.
The deputy general received a positive reply with a smile on his face.
This fierce battle lasted for several hours, and when it ended, it was already late at night.
Countless strange beasts died outside the city. As far as the eye could see, the ground was full of corpses of strange beasts.
Although the battle subsided, the defenders achieved a huge victory.
But at this time, it is not the time to celebrate victory, because no one can guarantee whether those strange beasts have other plots.
If the alien beast comes back later, there is a high probability that it will cause new trouble for the defenders.
The defenders in the city collected the dead and treated the wounded in an orderly manner, and replenished consumed supplies to guard against possible attacks again.
The previous rain had decreased and now it started to rain heavily again.
Heavy rain fell from the sky, washing away the dead beasts.
The blood was carried away by the rain and merged into the lake not far away.
An area near the shore of the lake was stained red with blood, and the smell of blood was very strong.
The strange beast in the lake hid in the dark and witnessed the entire battle. Then after the battle, it immediately dived into the water and swam to the depths of the lake.
On a hill near Zecheng, there was a group of people wearing masks standing on the top of the hill.
The rain falling from the sky was blocked by an invisible barrier half a meter away from these people, and then flowed to the side.
After the war ended, the figure wearing a black mask spoke.
"These beasts are really useless."
The figure wearing a white mask beside him said with a smile, "Those strange beasts are still not fully prepared. When the dragoons arrive, their defeat is already doomed."
"Originally, we wanted to take advantage of the horde of alien beasts to break through the city gate and rush into the city. Now it's impossible. It's really a waste of our time." The figure wearing a black mask said.
"Although the alien beast group failed, it also consumed a lot of strength from the defenders this time.
If we plan some things later, it will reduce a lot of stress.
Generally speaking, the efforts are effective, and we still have to thank those alien beasts..." The figure wearing a white mask smiled.
The two chatted for a while, then turned and left with their men.
They are the rebels wanted by the local government, and they have been looking for opportunities to cause a big thing.
Now a group of alien beasts attacked Zecheng. Although they failed, they still gave them a certain amount of help.
If they plan again later, they will inevitably cause new and huge harm to Zecheng.
At this moment, the officials in charge of Zecheng have no knowledge of this matter. Their first priority is to guard against another attack by the strange beasts.
At the same time, the heavy rain has not stopped, and some places in the city have been flooded by rain again.
Next, some manpower must be allocated to drain the rain-flooded areas in the city.
…………
"call……"
The wind got stronger and stronger, and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees were trembling violently due to the strong wind.
Many plants could not withstand the abuse, their branches and leaves began to be broken, and the fallen leaves flew everywhere.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the end of the war in the distance, feeling relieved.
Because the bonfire in the cave went out, the cave began to cool down.
At this time, the strong wind outside continued to blow, which accelerated the cooling rate in the cave.
After standing at the entrance of the cave for a while, the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead felt a little cold.
He quickly turned back to the cave, added some wood to the extinguished bonfire, and lit it.
Orange-red fire ignited, and the dark cave became bright again.
The firelight swayed gently, and the shadow of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead fell on the wall, shaking from time to time.
Tonight's battle can be said to be a near miss. If everyone knew from the beginning that there would be dragoons to support them, the psychological pressure on the soldiers who resisted the alien beasts would have been much less.
As the highest commanding general of the city defense, he did not tell his subordinates about the arrival of Long Qibing for support. I don't know what the reason was.
After the bonfire was lit, the temperature of the cave increased in an orderly manner.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead sat in front of the campfire. When his body could no longer feel the cold, he lay down to rest.
Tonight's battle caused a huge commotion, affecting a radius of hundreds of miles.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, was resting in a cave and was alert to possible dangers.
Now that the battle is over, the possibility of another danger in the cave is relatively low. He can have a good rest tonight.
…………
The next morning.
The sun shines into the cave, creating a large golden spot on the ground.
The pig-headed man captain, who was resting next to the campfire with a brown birthmark on his forehead, woke up. After opening his eyes, he looked out of the cave.
The sky outside the cave changed, and there were very few dark clouds left in the gloomy sky.
The sun is no longer obscured by dark clouds and hangs in the sky, emitting golden sunshine to its heart's content, providing warmth to the earth.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead got up from the ground and came outside the cave. He looked up at the sky.
Because of the rain, the sky was very blue, as beautiful as sapphire.
The rain stopped at dawn. I thought it would stop raining until noon, but I didn't expect it to start several hours earlier.
It's a good thing that it stops raining early, and then we can go into the city.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead returned to the cave, packed his things, and left.
All the food I brought yesterday has been eaten, so there is nothing to eat this morning.
Anyway, this place is not far from Zecheng, so we will have breakfast when we get to the city.
Carrying my backpack and walking forward, I originally wanted to reach the city gate quickly.
As a result, because it rained all night, the ground was wet everywhere.
When driving in such a muddy place, it's hard to go fast if you think about it.
The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead avoided small puddles and chose a drier place as much as possible. After spending some time, he passed through a small forest and came to the main road.
This main road leads directly to Zecheng in the distance, and the next road is much easier to walk.
However, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked forward for a while, and the expression on his face began to become serious.
Yesterday, many strange beasts died during the attack on Zecheng. These strange beasts fell to the ground and were not dealt with.
The soldiers on the city wall looked serious, and the city gate was not opened. Normally, the city gate had been opened for a while at this time.
"Don't they plan to open the city gate today?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the closed city gate in the distance, his thoughts quickly turned around, and based on past experience, he made some inferences.
There is a reason why you think the city gate will not be opened today.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had participated in some wars before. After the war broke out, in order to ensure that no accidents occurred in the city, the general would issue an order to close the city gates.
Suddenly there was a voice behind him.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead turned his head and saw some caravans appearing in the distance.
These businessmen were all frightened when they saw the corpses of strange animals lying on the ground.
Then they saw Zecheng safe and sound in the distance, and most of their worries immediately disappeared.
"Brother, why are so many strange beasts dead here? Do you know what happened last night?"
The guard protecting the caravan saw a man standing on the roadside and immediately stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead briefly talked about the war that broke out last night. After listening, the guard's face became a little pale, and then he said to himself with lingering fear.
"Fortunately, our trip was delayed due to some things on the way, otherwise we would have been implicated last night."
"Brother, thank you for telling me this news."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead waved his hand, indicating that these were useless news and should not be taken to heart.
After the guard heard the news, he turned away and went back to tell his employer.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard screams one after another. Although he couldn't hear what they were talking about, he could roughly guess what they were talking about.
