Eight hundred and sixty-four chapters burning the granary
The main dragon-slaying force retreated nearly 1,000 meters, and they were recovering their energy and blood. This process was neither too fast nor too slow, but at this time it seemed that there were too few hanging pots, and the whole city of Fire Elephant City had been massacred.
, Tianling City's dragon crystal cannons, ballistas, etc. have also arrived. The dragon crystal cannons roared and started fighting with the Huoyun Empire troops on the city.
…
I stood in the crowd and canceled the effect of Thousand Frost Wings. It wasn't that I couldn't afford one gold coin per second, but it was too eye-catching and made people feel uncomfortable.
Not far away, a horse flew over. It was Xu Yi, the marshal of this southern expedition. He looked at me standing in the crowd behind Zhanlong and Yulinjun, and couldn't help shouting: "Commander Li Xiaoyao, you are like this
What do you mean, the whole army is already rushing to attack the city, why is Commander Li Xiaoyao doing nothing behind the Chinese army?"
On the side, Long Jing, who was bandaging his wounds, couldn't help but frown and said: "Shuai Xu, why are you so aggressive? Didn't you see that our commander was the first person to rush to the city? Xing Lu and the Fire Cloud Empire's
People have regarded the commander and his soldiers as a thorn in the side, and the imperial guards are the same. The damage is extremely heavy. Don't they even give us a moment to rest? If you are not blind, you should be able to see that there are still a large number of people outside the city.
Are the Imperial Guards fighting bloody battles? To put it another way, even if our commander is a general, he can still strategize when sitting in the middle army. Although you are a marshal, don't try to incriminate yourself."
Xu Yi snorted coldly: "Long Yan, you seem to have forgotten that you were once a member of the Yanlong Army!"
Long Jing put down his bandaged shoulder, picked up a spear, and said with a slight smile: "No, Xu Shuai, the only thing I, Long Jing, remember is that I am an imperial soldier, not someone else's!"
"you!"
Xu Yi licked his lips, looked at me, and said: "General Li, in fact, I don't want to make things difficult for you, but I must attack Huoxiang City in one go at this time, otherwise we will fall into a protracted and bitter battle.
We have traveled a long way from Tianling City, and we are not rich in food and grassland. If we get stuck in this Fire Xiang City, the consequences will be disastrous."
I got on my horse, pulled out the Longchi Sword again, and said, "Shuai Xu, if you really think we can't fight here for a long time, why don't you be more cautious and confirm whether the food and grass route from Tianling City is safe? If I
Since they are from Huoxiang City, I will definitely send troops secretly to attack Tianling City's food and grass. As long as Tianling City's army has no food and grass, they will be hungry for a day and have no intention of fighting anymore."
"do not worry!"
Xu Yi raised the corner of his mouth: "Although I, Xu Yi, am not a famous general who uses troops like a god, I have been using troops for a long time. I understand this. Don't worry, our food and grass hoarding place is very safe, enough to support half of the 500,000-strong army here."
Moon, and there are general Xia Houren’s troops in the direction of Tianling City collecting food and grass to send.”
I nodded and smiled: "That's good!"
Pulling the reins of the Shen Lie Dragon Horse, I looked at a group of Royal Forest Army and dragon-slaying players, and said loudly: "Brothers, continue to fight. After destroying the ammunition and arrows in the Fire Elephant City, these grandsons will almost send troops."
Come out of the city and fight us in close combat!"
Li Mu laughed: "That's what I thought too. As long as their crossbows and artillery shells are used up, the NPCs will definitely go out to fight to alleviate the damage to the city. When the NPC army comes out, the players will definitely come out. Then our opportunity will come!"
"Well, come on!"
…
As soon as his arm sank, he rode his horse with his sword hanging low, leading a group of dragon-slaying troops to attack the city again. However, the firepower on the city was still very fierce, and the players' arrows, magic, and ammunition were constantly used.
Yes, in fact, this battle will not last long. Currently, only Feng Linzui from the first guild is leading the attack in the city, but Qingmu Tuomo, who is most fearful to me, has not yet appeared. This is always disappointing.
I felt vaguely uneasy in my heart.
Although I don’t know much about the situation in the Indian war zone, I also know very well that the "Conquer the World" guild established by Feng Linzui is the number one ace guild, but Feng Linzui is only the second person in the IBN war network, and the real number one in the Indian war zone.
One person is Qingmu Tuomo. Although she is a woman, the combat strength and personal wisdom displayed by Qingmu Tuomo are completely superior to Fenglinzui. If Fenglinzui is a king of fierce generals who charges into battle, then Qingmu Tuomo
Tuo Mo is a real queen with a strategic mind and both civil and military skills.
It is precisely because of this that Qingmu Tuomo and her guild "Beautiful Life" have never appeared, which makes me feel very uneasy. What is she doing and what is she planning?
The only thing I can think of is that Qingmou Tuomo has three goals. One is Tianling City. From Huoyun City, he bypasses Huoxiang City and attacks Tianling City to surround Wei and save Zhao. The other is Huoyan from the five legions.
Cannons and dragon crystal cannons, if you sneak attack these baggage, you can crush Tianling City's army. Finally, there is Tianling City's grain and grass. If you sneak attack our grain and grass, you can basically win.
While slashing and killing the Indian players who rushed down to the city, he was still thinking carefully. If Qingmu Tuomo leads people to sneak attack Tianling City, that is the matter of Fang Geque and the rumors. It has nothing to do with me, and I am beyond my reach.
, and dragon crystal cannons and fire rock cannons are already on the front line now. It is impossible to make a sneak attack. Then there is only the last possibility, a sneak attack on our food and grass. It is the evening in the game now. It will be dark soon, so we can make a sneak attack at night.
Food and grass are the best.
…
My heart sank, and I immediately raised my sword and rushed straight to the Royal Forest Army's camp, shouting loudly: "Xiao Li, come out!"
In the crowd, Xiao Li ran out with a bloody spear and shouted: "Sir, what's the matter? The war is urgent..."
I gritted my teeth and said, "Where are our food stores?"
"What's going on along the Blackwater River, sir?"
Me: "I suspect that the people from Huoxiang City will dispatch their troops to sneak attack the Tianling City granary on the edge of the Blackwater River when we are not prepared."
"Unlikely!" Xiao Li said: "First of all, the roads leading from Heishui River to Huoxiang City have been blocked by us. Secondly, the granary of Heishui River is guarded by at least 20,000 of our elite soldiers. Thirdly, Huoshui
Xiangcheng has been blocked by us, where will they come from?"
"Maybe there are other gates."
"Then which way to go to the granary? These official roads and trails are full of our people..."
"What if they attack from warships on the Blackwater?"
"What?!"
Xiao Li was suddenly startled, his eyes widened, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes: "I... I actually didn't think about this less, God... So our granary is indeed in danger!"
I nodded: "Immediately take 1,000 Royal Forest Army cavalry to reinforce the granary at full speed. It's best if you don't get attacked by surprise. If you get attacked by surprise, you should try to reduce losses as much as possible. You have to go quickly. Go now!"
"yes!"
A few minutes later, Xiao Li gave an order, and the Imperial Forest Army's 10,000 cavalry had already left the city.
Soon after, the herald came to summon me, and I immediately went to the center of the army.
Princess Pei'er was sitting in the center of the handsome tent, while Xu Yi stood aside and shouted: "Li Xiaoyao, the siege battle is raging, why did you suddenly separate the 1,000 cavalry troops of the Royal Forest Army and leave the battlefield?"
I said calmly: "I suspect they are about to attack our granary."
"absurd!"
Xu Yi roared in a low voice: "Our granary is already safe, so you don't need to worry about anything. But you are splitting up so many people at this time. Do you have second thoughts?"
I raised my head and looked at Pei'er: "Your Highness, say something for me!"
Pei'er smiled slightly: "Shuai Xu, don't worry too much. I trust General Li Xiaoyao. Whatever he wants to do, I will support him unconditionally!"
…
I turned around and walked out of the commander's tent. The worry in my heart became more intense, so I said in the guild channel: "Li Mu, Wang Jian, postpone the attack on the city. You bring 1W of dragon-slaying main cavalry with me. Let's go see the NPC's granary."
What's going on? I always feel like something is going to happen!"
Li Mu: "Okay, the assembly will be completed in five minutes!"
When I arrived at the Zhanlong position from the Central Military Tent, our 1W cavalry had indeed been assembled and set off immediately. The sunset had already set, and the stars were shining brightly on the road, as if a layer of clear frost had been sprinkled on it.
The cavalry galloped and arrived at the Blackwater River in about 30 minutes, but I already felt that it was too slow. There were too many variables in this half hour. The result was no surprise. When we approached the granary, we could already see the light of fire rising into the sky in the distance.
, the food and grass in Tianling City were really attacked and burned to pieces.
A battle is taking place on the bank of the river. The Imperial Forest Army led by Xiao Li is killing a group of Fire Cloud Empire soldiers who have returned from setting fire to the granary. In the middle of the river are warships. The warships are all soldiers of the Fire Cloud Empire. In addition, there are
Several warships were actually fully loaded with players, and they naturally had a share of the credit for setting fire to Tianling City to store grain.
…
I rushed over with my sword and chopped off a few NPCs. The war horse stopped on the river bank. The dense arrows on the warship prevented me from getting close. On the nearest warship, a woman with bright eyes and white teeth stood in a military uniform.
There, holding a bow and arrow in her hand, was Qingmu Tuomo, a beauty with a very Chinese charm. It is said that she is of mixed Chinese and Indian descent. She was looking at me with a smile and said with a chuckle: "Commander of the Royal Forest Army is carefree, goodbye.
Wow!"
Li Mu gritted his teeth: "Leader, shall we pursue him?"
"No……"
I sighed: "We don't have a boat. If we catch up, we can only eat other people's bows and arrows."
Xiao Li rolled off his saddle and dismounted, knelt on the ground and trembled: "Lord Commander, we...we arrived late. The granaries were almost burned down. Only a few small granaries far away were spared."
I gritted my teeth and said, "This is none of your business. Which army in Huoyun City is the one who set the fire?"
Xiao Li said in a deep voice: "They were personally led by Jiang Xiao, the commander of the Fire Cloud Empire's Fire Corps. Their cavalry were also on the warships. There were a total of 30 ships on the battlefield, and 3,000 heavy cavalry were rampaging through our granary. We were guarding
Your troops are no match for you."
I nodded: "Yes, I understand...hurry up and order people to go to Tianling City to collect food."
"good!"
…
At this time, a message came from Lin Waner: "How's it going? The granary was burned down?"
