Chapter 195 The city is in danger! The last chance!
Pingyun County.
City head.
The strong wind roared down, accompanied by huge rocks and countless flowing arrows.
The falling boulder turned into countless fragments, flying around like hidden weapons, penetrating the thick armor of the soldiers.
Even the soldiers holding their shields high could not block this intensive attack.
On the enemy tower, the county captains Ping Zhengwu and Jing Lu looked solemnly at the soldiers who kept falling to the ground and dying.
They looked outside the city.
The dark military formations.
There are twenty in total.
Each military formation has 10,000 elite soldiers and generals, and the momentum is overwhelming and majestic.
One of the military formations was full of slingers, and thousands of catapults lined up in a line to bombard the city wall that stretched for more than ten miles.
The buildings on the city wall were knocked down, and bricks and stones continued to fall.
There were more than 30,000 eagle-eyed archers, flying with fierce flames, shooting overwhelming arrows, covering a hundred meters in front and back of the city wall, leaving no safe place to stay.
There were also crossbow arrows on the siege chariot, which were also shot out continuously.
After multiple rounds of attacks, the number of casualties among the county defenders exceeded several thousand, and this number will soon reach tens of thousands.
What's even more frightening is that the city wall is crumbling under repeated bombings.
This is just the power of long-range attacks.
Those hundreds of siege chariots, which look like giant beasts from the wild, are watching with eager eyes and have not yet been officially dispatched!
The towering and solid city wall was originally the last and strongest line of defense for the government army.
With this city defense, it is enough to resist ten times more enemies.
Even if the players allied themselves with a million troops, they might not be able to break through the county.
However, now it was attacked by siege equipment under Qin Yuan's army.
A thousand catapults erupted with terrifying power, as if they were about to knock down a city wall of tens of meters.
If this continues, it will not only be as simple as the garrison soldiers suffering heavy casualties, but they will also face the crisis of complete collapse of the city wall.
"With the power of the enemy's siege equipment, this city wall will fall in no more than two hours!"
County Lieutenant Ping Zhengwu looked frightened. "What can General Jing do?"
No one expected that a group of bandits who made their fortune by robbing would possess such a large-scale siege weapon.
Even the siege army owned by the government army was less than one-tenth of the opponent's at its peak.
What's more, now it's just a catapult attack. The real siege weapon, the silver-level siege chariot, has not yet appeared!
"There are ways, but they are basically useless!"
Jing Lu smiled bitterly.
He was the first to deal with Qingfeng Village.
At that time, in his opinion, they were just a group of bandits with some strength.
But in several confrontations with Qin Yuan, he suffered heavy losses.
Qin Yuan, who killed Ping Tie with one sword and led Qinglong Yulin to charge unscrupulously in the enemy camp, left a deep impression in his heart that he could not get rid of.
It has become his nightmare!
"Once the city wall falls, our greatest advantage will be lost. Sooner or later, the county will fall."
"If you want to defeat the enemy, you may be able to take the risk and lead an army to attack on your own initiative, break through the enemy camp, destroy the siege equipment, and maybe get a glimmer of hope."
Jing Lu looked at the giant siege beasts and shook his head.
"How is this possible!"
Ping Zhengwu looked at the rows of strong shield warriors and black shield warriors in front of the siege beast. The defensive strength was no less than that of the city wall.
Even if he led the most elite cavalry, he could not break through the opponent's defense line.
What's more, there are 200,000 elites outside, the lowest are advanced units, and the strongest are the epic Azure Dragon Royal Forest.
If you go out at this time, you are undoubtedly seeking death.
"Then there's nothing we can do!"
"perhaps."
Jing Lu smiled bitterly.
"No, how can we, the mighty Han army, surrender to a group of bandits!"
Ping Zhengwu gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I fight to the death on the battlefield, I will not surrender!"
Jing Lu remained silent, this is not something you can decide.
In fact, taking refuge in Qin Yuan is the only chance of survival.
Now the government is facing enemies from both sides.
There is Qingfeng Village in front, the players' coalition behind, and Gongsun Zan's army in the distance.
No matter which side it is, everyone wants to put them to death.
Not to mention anything else, once they are defeated by the players' coalition and Gongsun Zan, they will definitely die, or at least they will end up confiscating their homes and annihilating their clans.
Although Qingfeng Village was a bandit, it had a good reputation. Even after conquering the city wall, there had never been any massacres or indiscriminate killing of innocent people.
There was no mass killing of powerful families in the city.
For example, after the players allied forces conquered the city, whether they were ordinary people or powerful families, their fate would be very miserable.
"Um?"
"Why did you stop?"
Ping Zhengwu frowned.
The battlefield suddenly became quiet, and there were no more arrows flying in the sky, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a long arrow shot through the air and knocked down the enemy tower.
There is also a letter hanging above the arrow.
"That's too much!"
When Ping Zhengwu opened it, his face showed solemnity, humiliation, and anger.
He was about to tear up the letter, but was stopped by Jing Lu!
Needless to say, the content of this letter must be a surrender letter from Qingfeng Village.
The attack by Qingfeng Village just now was just a disincentive to them.
The letter of surrender sent was also a last chance for them.
If the government does not surrender, Qingfeng Village will never hold back without attacking.
Judging from the current strength, the government must be destroyed.
"Even if the county captain doesn't think about himself, he should still think about his family!"
“I think this matter should be left to the county magistrate’s decision!”
Jing Lu stretched out his hand and pressed Ping Zhengwu's shoulder and said.
The surrounding generals also gathered around and stared at Ping Zhengwu.
to be honest.
They had gone through more than ten days of war, and the government troops had been defeated one after another, and their morale had dropped to the bottom.
Their strength dropped all the way, from an army of hundreds of thousands to the last hundreds of thousands, with countless comrades falling in front of them.
Everyone knows what will happen if you continue to fight.
The more tenaciously they resist, the more disastrous their fate will be after the city is defeated.
"snort!"
Ping Zhengwu looked around at the crowd, snorted coldly, and threw the letter in his hand to the bodyguard beside him. "Give this letter to the county magistrate!"
"I hope you will be wiser!"
Qin Yuan looked at the city head and murmured.
Then he turned and looked into the distance.
Smoke and dust billowed over there, and countless heads appeared.
It is the army of the players' coalition.
Such a big movement naturally cannot be hidden from the players.
The player coalition did not get too close and kept a few miles away from Qin Yuan's army.
But their arrival still made Qin Yuan very dissatisfied.
He couldn't guarantee whether these players would take action against him when he launched a large-scale attack on the county town.
As for the so-called alliance against the enemy, it is a joke.
Qin Yuan cannot trust them.
In his opinion, apart from his own people, there are only enemies.
In particular, the group of players is extremely unstable. As long as they have enough interests, they may rebel at any time, making them more terrifying than the enemy.
The same goes for the government.
Even if Gongsun Zan's army is about to arrive, he must deal with the Pingyun County government army.
In this way, he can devote all his energy to dealing with Gongsun Zan's army.
After all, the threat from these hundreds of thousands of government troops is still considerable.
Also, this county is the core of the entire Pingyun County, and its geographical location is extremely important, so it must be firmly controlled.
"I have given you the last chance. As long as the government is willing to surrender, I will not attack the city again!"
Qin Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked at Tianxia Gujiu.
