While Lin Yi and Shangguan Minghong were looking at the enemy camp, Li Chao was also looking at Fengxiang City from the camp.
Of course, it is difficult for both parties to see each other.
On one side there was only the camp, on the other side there was only the city.
Previously, Li Chao received a report of horse exploration.
Zangba has borrowed military horses and will arrive in two hours.
Li Chao felt a strong desire for revenge and wished he could immediately destroy the city that had failed him. This city had simply become a shame for him.
At noon, Zang Ba led 50,000 troops borrowed from Ju Rong to the camp.
With the addition of additional troops and horses, the sluggish morale of the Western Region Army was finally boosted.
Li Chao asked about the situation in Lucheng, and Zang Ba said: "The destruction of Lucheng is imminent, and Fenglian City is almost over. But the war on our side made Marshal Ju Rong very angry. He pointed at my nose and yelled at us for our incompetence. Ju Rong also asked me to give
King Ling sent me a message to capture Bu Fengxiang City and deal with it according to military law."
Li Chao was not angry after hearing this. He did not blame Marshal Ju Rong for being angry. If he had been Ju Rong, he would have been angry with him and Zang Ba.
Li Chaodao: "The city must be destroyed this time! Because the food and grass in the city are about to run out. It will even be difficult to sustain until tomorrow. Even if the entire martial arts world of the Central Plains is stationed in the city, and there are a hundred thousand troops stationed in the city, I don't believe that they are so hungry that they have no strength to fight!"
"
After hearing this, Zang Ba also gained confidence.
Zang Ba said: "When will we attack the city?"
Li Chaodao: "Tomorrow. Let the brothers rest for another day today. We will attack the city tomorrow."
…
In the early morning of the next day, while the weather was still cool, tens of thousands of troops from the Western Region Army came out of the camp and began to form formations to attack the city.
The rest of the rotating siege troops rested in the camp.
When the defenders on the city tower saw the enemy troops coming out of camp in large numbers, they quickly sounded the alarm gong.
The sound of gongs sounded on all sides of the city.
So the defenders and experts from various factions quickly took up their positions.
Now, there are so many martial arts masters stationed in the city, and they are not afraid of attacking the city. However, they are afraid of running out of food. The food can only last for one day, and they have to reduce their meals.
Morale also began to falter.
Lin Yi and Shangguan Minghong also went to the top of the city.
Shangguan Minghong now no longer has a solemn look, but a confident look.
He did not look at the enemy army, but towards the southeast.
Lin Yi was also full of excitement and expectation.
Today's battle will be the one that determines the outcome.
Lin Yi glanced at the flag at the top of the city.
The flag does not wave.
Lin Yi hoped that the wind would rise.
As long as the wind blows, Du Youhen can show off his power even more.
After the enemy troops were ready, dozens of war drums started beating again.
Then the enemy shelled again and fired arrows.
Now there are no cannonballs or arrows in the city.
Unable to fight back, everyone squatted behind the battlements to avoid the arrows.
Those who are powerful in martial arts will not be able to dodge even if they stand still.
The arrows they shot were knocked down by their strong energy.
After the enemy's arrows were fired, Li Chao personally waved the flag. Then tens of thousands of enemy troops shouted for death and rushed towards the city like a raging flood.
The defenders and heroes hiding under the battlements stood up again and began to defend themselves against the enemy.
The offensive and defensive sides once again launched a brutal and fierce offensive and defensive battle.
Nowadays, most of the people who defend the city are masters from various factions. Large-scale team fighting on the ground is their shortcoming, but when it comes to defending the city, it is really beyond the comparison of the defenders.
Thousands of Jianghu people each used their abilities, sword energy, palm shadows, hidden weapons, and sword light, to pour down on the enemy troops climbing on top of the city.
Suddenly, countless enemy soldiers fell from the ladder with blood splattered and screams.
Although the enemy troops violently attacked the city at various points along the several-mile-long city wall, this attack was more embarrassing than any other. Almost no one could get close to the city head.
The heroes and defenders on the city cheered constantly.
The enemy troops below the city were screaming in surprise.
So a group of enemy soldiers shouted in broken Chinese: Northern Demon, Northern Demon...
They hope that the terrifying Northern Demon will come out to help them attack the city.
Now Qin Dingfang is riding a horse on a nearby slope.
The voices calling him came and went, and Qin Dingfang's red eyes kept shrinking. However, there were so many experts on the city, including Lin Yi and other top experts, and Qin Dingfang didn't dare to come near to show off his power even if he had the courage to do so.
Unless the Western Region Army can attack the city, and then both sides fight in chaos, he will attack the city.
Qin Dingfang is also waiting for an opportunity.
Now, he will never do anything he is not sure about.
All the dead people of the Linghu clan serve as lessons for him.
Qin Dingfang is now many times more cautious than before.
Li Chao and Zang Ba were very angry when they saw that the attack on the city was unsuccessful. Li Chao even yelled: "Smash them with huge rocks! Smash them all into pieces!"
So the catapults began to throw big stones at the city head again. The artillery roared again. The broken stones and bricks from the city head flew across the city. The enemy took the opportunity to attack again, and this time the situation was slightly improved.
In this way, the enemy attacked for another half an hour.
Shangguan Minghong and Lin Yi both looked to the southeast at this moment.
Eyes filled with hope.
Finally, a black spot fell into Lin Yi's eyes.
Then the black spots spread like ink drops on the table. As they continued to extend forward, they gradually saw countless flags flying and yellow dust filling the sky.
Coming!
Reinforcements are coming!
As they got closer, tens of thousands of reinforcements were seen coming like a torrent.
At the front were the cavalry. There were light cavalry and heavy cavalry. Behind, there were endless infantry. The men and horses were galloping, and the light of tens of thousands of weapons was like the flow of the silver sea. The momentum was huge and astonishing.
Shangguan Minghong and Lin Yi were both extremely excited.
Shangguan Minghong shouted excitedly: "The reinforcements are coming! The reinforcements are coming..."
Many heroes and defenders also saw it. At first they thought it was the enemy's reinforcements. Shangguan Minghong roared like this, and then the heroes and defenders realized that this was reinforcements from the imperial court.
So people kept shouting excitedly, and soon, the entire city defenders and heroes knew that reinforcements were coming.
Just like waiting for the rain after a long drought, the reinforcements have finally arrived!
At this moment, everyone was excited beyond words.
At this moment, the heroes and defenders at the top of the city were completely excited.
Waves of cheers came and went.
Some were as excited as children, and some even cried with joy.
The people on the city cheered, and the enemy troops below the city were even more frightened. The enemy troops who climbed on the ladder to attack the city looked back, and they kept exclaiming in Western dialect, telling their own people that enemy reinforcements had arrived.
Li Chao and Zang Ba stood on horseback and looked into the distance. They were shocked when they saw the overwhelming reinforcements coming.
They never dreamed that the Central Plains army would arrive so quickly.
At this time, Tan Ma also galloped forward, and he hurriedly reported to Li Chao and Zang Ba.
"Prince Ling, general, enemy reinforcements are coming!"
Reporting at this moment is like adding fuel to the fire to Li Chao.
Li Chao said angrily: "I am reporting now! My eyes are not blind, I can see by myself!"
Li Chao drew his machete and knocked Tan Ma off his horse with one blow.
Zang Ba said: "Prince Ling, what should we do now?!"
Li Chao was also a battle-hardened man, and he quickly calmed down.
Li Chaodao: "Looking at the formation, the enemy's reinforcements are only 30,000 to 40,000 people. We have to pay money to stop the siege army from attacking. Let them gather in formation at the gate of the city to prevent the enemies in the city from rushing out. You lead the army to meet the enemy. Send the reinforcements
Defeat!"
Zangba then led more than a dozen generals to lead the army to meet the enemy.
Li Chao ordered his people to quickly return to the camp and notify the troops in the camp to go out to defend the enemy. At the same time, he ordered the siege troops to line up outside the city gate to prevent the people in the city from rushing out.
At the top of the city, Lin Yi laughed at Shangguan Minghong and said, "Haha, brother, prepare to give the order! We can go out of the city and have a big killing!"
Shangguan Minghong waved his sword and said loudly: "Get ready to lower the suspension bridge and open the city gate!"
