Before entering the city, Xu Yue found a group of people digging something a hundred meters away from the city tower and asked Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu pretended not to say: "Wait a minute, there will be a good show to watch!"
After walking a few dozen meters further, they found another group of people digging something there. This time they were closer, and Xu Yue could see clearly that what these people were digging was a trench.
This is?
"Give the Beiyi Army a dessert first!" Gu Jiu chuckled.
Xu Yue still didn't understand.
Digging a trench can stop some cavalry. If the cavalry doesn't know it and falls into this trap, both men and horses will have to fall down. They will die or be disabled! They will lose their combat effectiveness!
But it's only a minority.
Wait until the trench is filled in by people and horses.
This trench is of no use!
What's the point of spending so much effort and only injuring a dozen people?
Gu Jiu was mysterious and didn't say anything.
Xu Yue didn't pursue the question. He was currently thinking about how to fight a battle between 100,000 people and 30,000 people.
What will the prince do?
Wait until everyone enters the city.
Ling Wenjing ordered the suspension bridge to be burned.
After that, we went directly to the tower and stood in the center of the tower.
Ling Wenjing looked at the dark Beiyi army in the distance.
His face was calm.
This determination and momentum also infected the soldiers defending the city.
"Asahikawa, pass the order and act according to the previous plan!"
"Yes!" Asahikawa quickly walked down the tower and went to the back to organize things.
"Gu Jiu, go find Zhao Ting, gather the good archers, and go to the tower in a quarter of an hour!"
"Yes! I'll go now!" Gu Jiu jumped down from the tower.
He ran away in a hurry.
Seeing the prince's calm and commanding appearance, Xu Yue felt temporarily relieved.
At least it’s okay for a day or two!
It is not easy for the Beiyi Army to invade.
There is only one city gate in Bali Town.
Just hold on!
Huh!
It's just as the prince said, as long as you guard the city gate!
When he went up to the tower, Xu Yue looked carefully and found that the tower was strong.
Xu Yue moved a chair over from somewhere and said, "Master, sit down and rest for a while!"
"Go down and rest for an hour and then come back!" Ling Wenjing sat down as instructed, with her back straight, and said to Xu Yue.
"I'm not tired! I can just meditate and rest for a while!"
After Xu Yue finished speaking, he sat down on the floor next to Ling Wenjing and began to meditate.
A quarter of an hour later.
Gu Jiu took the archers selected from the army to the position.
Half an hour later.
The Beiyi Army gradually appeared in the sight of the defenders.
A large area of Wuyangyang.
Seeing so many Beiyi troops, the defenders couldn't help but feel a thump in their hearts.
There are too many damn things!
A hundred meters away, the light cavalry of the Beiyi Army dispersed and reached both wings.
Reveal the infantryman in the middle.
The infantrymen in front were carrying ladders. They were going to attack the city!
Don't wait for the Beiyi army to get ready!
Ling Wenjing made a gesture!
The entire tower suddenly became as bright as day.
There are torches everywhere!
Then the sound of "Boom! Boom! Boom!" the war drums resounded through the clouds!
fight!
What matters is momentum!
So powerful!
Warriors come out!
The silence in the city was completely broken, and different voices began to overlap in the air.
The sergeants in the city were all in a hurry, but there was no panic on their faces!
Very orderly!
All the sergeants quickly arrived at their designated locations after hearing the sound of the war drums.
All the people in the city were escorted to Nanzhou County by a team of people arranged by Ling Wenjing three days ago.
No matter what the prince thinks about the prince.
The prince cannot turn a blind eye to the people who escaped from Bali Town in public.
Ling Wenjing believes that the prince does not dare to do so!
Wait for the Beiyi army to continue moving forward.
Gu Jiu gave the order.
Rockets flew by like meteors in the night sky.
Falling a hundred meters away.
There was a bang.
Wherever the meteor hit, a wall of fire that was several people high instantly shot upward.
You can even see the struggling Pyroman inside the wall of fire.
The screams drowned out the shouts!
The Beiyi Army's offensive was suspended.
The first thing they do is put out the fire!
Ling Wenjing made a gesture.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The war drum sounded again.
To the ears of the Beiyi Army, this sounded like a death curse!
Gu Jiu then jumped up to Xu Yue, squatted down, and said with a smile: "You know what kind of dessert this is!"
Xu Yue smiled and nodded.
This dessert is so good!
Burn them to death!
Gu Jiu looked back at the distance and snorted coldly: "This trench is full of spirits and oil, but it's not that easy to put out!"
"Oil? What oil? Lamp oil?" Xu Yue asked.
"It's not lamp oil, it's a dark, extremely viscous oil! It took a lot of effort to get it back!"
Xu Yue was curious: "What is that oil called?"
"Miss Jiang said it's called black oil! It's also good luck that there is a water pool fifty miles north of Bali Town. The locals said that the water in this pool is not drinkable. When I asked, I found out that the water is black and keeps gushing out all year round.
It was bubbling, and no one dared to go into the water. The prince said that this should be the black oil that Miss Jiang had talked about, so he got it back and tried it, and he said, it is really a good thing!"
"Who is this Miss Jiang?" Xu Yue continued to ask.
Gu Jiu raised his lips and shook his head without saying a word.
Xu Yue glanced at his master and saw that his master was looking into the distance with a solemn expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
After the Beiyi army finally put out the fire.
Keep moving forward.
Go fifty meters away from the tower.
Waiting for a group of Beiyi troops to move forward a few meters.
Gu Jiu gave the order again.
It shot out like a rocket.
The wall of fire shot higher and higher.
Screams came and went.
Behind two walls of fire.
The Beiyi army retreated a hundred meters.

"Why are you crying! When you talk to your wife during the day, you don't speak clearly and truthfully!" Lao Jiangtou sat on the edge of the Kang.
Old Mrs. Jiang turned her back to Old Jiangtou, holding a handkerchief in her hand and wiping the corners of her eyes.
"Old man, I know you are complaining in your heart that I am cruel, but I am not cruel! You said that my flowers grow so well, what happened to them? The leader is a fool! It took a lot of effort to stop being stupid, you don't know
I am so happy in my heart! Unfortunately, the flower is either gone or gone! My poor flower! I would rather she was stupid! But what do you say? She is a spirit! A spirit that can take human form,
The Taoist priest has to avoid her, so what should we do? If we don’t marry her off, do we have any other options? Don’t forget, she is no longer a flower!"
After being silent for a while, Old Jiangtou said, "I'll go to Chang Ning's Mansion tomorrow and find an expert to see before we talk!"
"What? You still don't believe it!" Old Mrs. Jiang got up from the bed and looked at Old Jiang Tou.
"We just have to believe her when she says she's not a flower, but a spirit!"
Mrs. Jiang sighed softly: "I don't want to believe it either! I'm just worried about what will happen if there is a disaster in half a year?"
"Don't make any noise about this, wait until I come back!"
"It would be great if there is a way to resolve it. Old man, do you think our flowers can come back?" Old Mrs. Jiang asked.
The old man didn't say anything. He took off his shoes and got on the kang for a while: "Go to sleep!"
