Outside Wutu City, a group of black cavalrymen surged out.
This is exactly the tiger and leopard warrior sent by Bai Qi.
Tiger roars rose into the sky, and terrifying sound waves struck towards the city wall.
The Wuhuan defenders standing on the city felt a terrifying aura coming towards them, as if a huge beast from the wild was hissing at them!
His body became tense uncontrollably, and the hands holding the weapon trembled slightly.
For a moment, the soldiers on the entire city wall were in panic.
The rallying horn sounded in the city, and a large number of soldiers rushed to the city wall.
The atmosphere was tense.
Like facing a formidable enemy!
Both the high-ranking generals and the lower-level soldiers all had solemn expressions on their faces.
In the past few days, they had heard countless times about the victorious record of this tiger and wolf army.
No matter what elite cavalry they have in the Wuhuan tribe, they are no match for them.
Every Wuhuan army that fought against them had only one result, that is, the entire army was destroyed, and no one survived.
Now, as soon as they hear of their arrival, all the Wuhuan tribes will be frightened into fear.
As the saying goes, it is better to meet than to be famous.
Even though I have heard it countless times from many Wuhuan refugees.
However, it was only when they felt the murderous aura exuding from the tiger and leopard warriors outside the city that they clearly realized that this was definitely a powerful elite force.
Even the most elite Chishan Army of the Wuhuan Royal Court was no match for them.
The Tiger and Leopard War Cavalry is a special unit, with a tiger as its mount, and its average strength is level four.
Even if they face some ordinary armies of the fifth and sixth levels, they can defeat them.
In the territory of Wuhuan, everyone knows about the achievements of tiger and leopard warriors.
The tiger and leopard war cavalry are also very distinctive. They use large ferocious beasts and tigers as mounts, and they are still organized in large numbers. Their galloping momentum is better than a million soldiers.
Even though only 10,000 tiger and leopard warriors came this time, they still frightened the soldiers guarding the city.
However, this time, the tiger and leopard warriors were just here to demonstrate.
There was no real plan to attack the city.
The Wuhuan people knew this very well, but they did not come out to fight.
Swish, swish, swish!
After the demonstration, the tiger and leopard warriors fired their bows and arrows at the city wall.
Archery is also one of the powerful abilities of the tiger and leopard warriors.
Wutu City, City Lord's Mansion.
While Qin Yuan was discussing with Bai Qi and other three famous generals, a group of leaders and elders from various major tribes gathered in the city lord's palace.
At this time, the difficulty they faced was Qin Yuan's army approaching the city.
Since Qin Yuan's army entered beyond the Great Wall, it destroyed millions of Wuhuan troops and hundreds of millions of ordinary people.
It can be said to be extremely cruel.
Here, there are many tribes that were defeated by Qin Yuan.
At this time, even in the city lord's mansion, the roar of tigers could be heard from outside the city. Many people's bodies trembled, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes.
Although they tried their best to escape, they were still caught up by Qin Yuan.
Now, Qin Yuan's army has approached Wutu City.
They could only huddle in the city, not even daring to leave the city and continue to flee north.
Because with the city defense of Wutu City, it might be able to support it for a while.
And if there is no city defense, their fate can be imagined.
"It's over now, Qin Yuan's army has already come to kill us!"
"If I had known earlier, I would have withdrawn last night!"
"Wutucheng is already the largest city within hundreds of miles. If even Wutu City can't stop Qin Yuan, it will be useless for you to escape wherever you go!"
"Wutu City has a city defense of tens of meters high and a large number of fortifications. There are more than one million troops in the city. If troops are forcibly recruited, the number of troops can reach two million! With such a force, we can even compete with Qin
Yuan Yi fights to the death!"
"Your idea is good, but the reality is much crueler than you imagined!"
"It's simply fanciful. Do you think you can defeat Qin Yuan's army by relying on numerical superiority?"
"That's not what you're saying. We, the Wuhuan tribe, are warriors on horseback. Why should we be afraid of the army of a small border county? Even if Gongsun Zan comes in person, he will still be defeated!"
"Haha, go to the city wall now, open your dog eyes and look at the army outside the city, and you will know how terrifying they are!"
"Qin Yuan's army is a true army of tigers and wolves"
In the spacious hall, a group of tribal leaders and elders covered in animal skins were arguing fiercely.
Mainly divided into two factions.
One group is the leaders of some small and medium-sized tribes. Many of them have witnessed the power of Qin Yuan's army with their own eyes.
Originally, if all the leaders of the southern tribes gathered together, there would probably be hundreds of people.
But now, there are only a few hundred or so people left.
As for those who have not come, they will never come again.
The other faction is mainly the leaders and elders of the Wutu tribe and surrounding tribes. These people's tribes are distributed in or around Wutu City.
They only learned about Qin Yuan's army's performance from some information channels.
However, information on paper is always just cold words.
They have never seen the power of Qin Yuan's army.
Therefore, deep down, I still maintain the pride of the Ma people outside the Great Wall, thinking that the Central Plains people are just a group of two-legged sheep.
After the two parties argued for a while, they suddenly became quiet.
Outside the main hall, a man wearing a tiger skin coat and a crown walked in.
This is the supreme leader of the Wutu tribe, Wu Shilie.
Wuye, who was slapped to death by the White Tiger Army Spirit, was his son.
If Qiu Liju is the king of the entire Wuhuan tribe, then Wu Xilie is the well-deserved king of the Wutu tribe, including hundreds of tribes in the south.
The Wutu tribe is powerful and ranks among the top among all the Wuhuan tribes.
He was once a strong contender for the Chanyu of the tribe, but unfortunately he did not receive much support from the priests and was ultimately defeated, leaving Qiu Liju to become the great Chanyu of the Wuhuan tribe.
This is also the pain of his life.
In the plan to revive Zhu Jiuyin and attack Youzhou, Wu Shulie was very active and thought of relying on this opportunity to make a comeback.
Unfortunately, it still failed.
Now, not only has the plan been ruined, but the enemies have even reached the outside of Wutu City.
Wutu City has been run by the Wutu tribe for more than two hundred years, and its status is equivalent to that of the Chishan Royal Court of the Wuhuan tribe.
Therefore, this is also the last barrier for the Wutu tribe.
Other tribes can retreat and escape, but it is impossible for the Wutu tribe.
The territory in the north has long been occupied by several other tribes of similar strength.
If they fled to the north, there would be only one outcome, and that would be to be divided and annexed by other tribes.
The competition between the Wuhuan tribes was far more fierce and cruel than the confrontation between the Central Plains dynasties.
At that time, the Wutu tribe will no longer exist.
And if Wutu City can be saved, there may be a chance.
"Wutu City is our last barrier, we cannot retreat even one step no matter what!"
Wu Shilie walked through the road separated by the crowd, sat in the main seat, and said in a loud voice. "When Wutu City is here, we will be there. If Wutu City is destroyed, we will be buried with it, so you still don't give up."
Realistic fantasy, determination to fight to the death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone started talking again.
Although they had hid in Wutu City, they still maintained a trace of luck in their hearts.
That is, once given the opportunity, they will definitely take the opportunity to escape from this place.
Only by escaping north can there be any chance of survival.
Even though Wutu City is one of the largest cities in the south, most people don't think that Wutu City's defenses can stop Qin Yuan's army.
Among Qin Yuan's troops, the most famous one is naturally the tiger and wolf division.
It is also the collective name for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Black Wolf Emperor Cavalry in the Azure Dragon Legion.
However, many tribal leaders knew very well that the most terrifying thing was the army composed of giant steel beasts.
No matter how high the city defense is, in front of it, it is as fragile as an earth wall and will fall down if pushed.
In previous wars, many tribes thought of relying on cities to resist, but their only chance of escape was ruined, and they all ended up with their cities destroyed and people killed.
Many tribal leaders expressed opposition to Wu Shilie's words.
Wutu City is the city of the Wutu tribe, and they have no obligation to protect this city.
"This is a mandatory order from Qiu Liju!"
"You can try to continue fleeing north, and you will be punished for treason!"
"So, put away your petty thoughts and think carefully about how to block Qin Yuan's army!"
Wu Xilie directly read out the order from the royal court.
When everyone heard about Qiu Liju, no matter how reluctant they were, they couldn't refuse.
As Wu Xilie said, if they stay, there may be a way to survive.
Once you flee north, there is only one ending: death!
"But, with people like us, I'm afraid we are no match for Qin Yuan!"
A tribal leader said.
This is also true.
They are still aware of this.
Even what Wu Shilie meant in his words was not to defeat Qin Yuan's army, but how to block the attack of Qin Yuan's army and defend Wutu City.
"The Royal Court has sent 800,000 Chishan troops, as well as the Canglang Gulou tribe's army to rush to Wutu City. The reinforcements are expected to exceed 10 million!"
"So, our mission is to defend Wutu City, keep the enemy out of the city, and wait for reinforcements to arrive!"
"I believe we can achieve this if we work together!"
Wu Shilie said.
"The order just came today?"
"Although there are tens of millions of reinforcements coming to help, will there be enough time?"
"Even if the Chishan Army is the fastest, it will take at least three or four days!"
"As for the Canglang tribe located in the northernmost part, it will take them ten days at the earliest to get up!"
While everyone was happy, they expressed their worries.
The reinforcement time they mentioned was based on deploying all cavalry and traveling day and night to reach Wutu City as quickly as possible.
If there are delays on the way, it will only take longer.
Therefore, during this period, they can only rely on their own strength.
"There are about 1.3 million troops from various tribes in the city. Reserves can be recruited, which is about 700,000!"
"The total number can reach two million troops!"
"I believe it will be no problem to hold off the enemy for four days, right?"
Wu Shulie said, "Everyone in our Wuhuan tribe is a natural grassland warrior. No matter how strong the enemy is, it is impossible to break through Wutu City in a few days!"
"This may be a bit risky!"
"To be on the safe side, I think we need to make some alternative plans!"
Someone stood up and said, "Maybe we can find a way to delay it for some time!"
It's night.
In a camp ten kilometers outside Wutu City.
Qin Yuan was sitting in a tent, listening to Bai Qi, Li Cunxiao, Luo Cheng and others discussing strategies to deal with the Wuhuan tribe.
What they were discussing was not how to conquer Wutu City.
Because of the analysis of the enemy's and our own forces in Wutu City, no one thought that it would be difficult to capture Wutu City.
Rather, they were discussing the next step after conquering Wutu City.
During this period of time, although the Wuhuan tribe captured thousands of miles of territory, to a large extent, this was achieved through the use of assault tactics.
There are only two enemies that are a little difficult to encounter.
One is the million-strong army commanded by Wuye.
The other one is the Wutu City they are about to face.
Apart from that, conquering other tribes is overwhelming and not difficult at all.
But after such a long time, the Wuhuan tribe should have come to their senses no matter how slow they were.
Next, what they will encounter will be an attack by a large number of Wuhuan troops.
The intelligence system they deployed only received sporadic intelligence information.
The Chishan Royal Court and the large tribes north of the Wuhuan tribe all showed signs of mobilizing a large number of troops.
The Wuhuan tribe's counterattack has already begun.
Bai Qixiaobian had expected this.
However, there is a serious lack of intelligence. After all, this is the territory of the Wuhuan tribe, and obtaining intelligence is much more difficult than in Youzhou.
Therefore, many enemy actions can only be speculated based on sporadic intelligence.
But speculation is just speculation after all, and it needs to be confirmed by real information, otherwise it will be just talk on paper.
This is also the most difficult point they face.
In order to make up for the lack of intelligence, Bai Qi even sent many soldiers to sneak into the northern border of Wuhuan to inquire for information, and used some caravans of the Han Dynasty, and even obtained intelligence information from some players, and then obtained some real and effective information from a lot of intelligence.
information.
"Hey, Wutu City sent envoys to bring news that the leader of the Wutu tribe, Wu Shilie, and many tribal leaders sincerely expressed their wish to negotiate peace with the lord?"
Bai Qi got the attitude from Wutu City from a military commander.
If there was other news, he might have made his own decision.
However, after all, Wu Shilie is one of the largest tribal leaders in southern Wuhuan, with a high reputation and prestige.
And his attitude was very humble, and he seemed to want to surrender to Qin Yuan.
If you can defeat others without fighting, that might be pretty good.
"What do you think?"
Qin Yuan asked.
"It's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature!"
Luo Cheng pondered for a moment and said.
"Those who are not of my race must have different hearts!"
Li Cunxiao sneered.
"According to some intelligence, the Wuhuan tribe has sent reinforcements and will arrive in Wutu City soon!"
"The other side only needs to hold on for a few days before they can get a lot of reinforcements!"
"And they cannot be unaware of what we did in Wuhuan territory before, so they are even less likely to surrender to us!"
"So, I guess this may be a reinforcement plan!"
Bai Qi judged.
"Since the enemy's intention is obvious, I have nothing to say!"
Qin Yuan smiled slightly.
Even if Qin Yuan agrees to Wu Shilie's surrender, they will definitely try their best to delay time.
It is impossible to take the initiative to open the city gate and welcome Qin Yuan into the city.
There must be fraud in this.
Even Qin Yuan could see through the enemy's thoughts, and it was impossible to hide them from Bai Qi and others.
"Someone, cut off the head of the Wuhuan envoy and throw it to the top of Wutu City!"
Bai Qi shouted coldly.
Two days passed by so quickly.
The four legions, hundreds of thousands of troops, have once again assembled.
This day is also the time to attack the Wuhuan tribe.
Wuyangyang's army left the camp and quickly approached Wutu City.
Under the influence of the terrifying military momentum, even the sky was covered with a layer of dark clouds!
