Chapter 758: Sneak attack on the handsome tent

Lightning and thunder, and a roar of lightning, the sudden rainstorm interrupted the anxious siege.

The heavy rains here are like hot weather, and they come very violently and last for a long time.

The heavy rain that had been falling for many days made both sides breathe a breath, and it seemed that it diluted the extremely strong smell of blood on the mountain.

However, this is not an eternal theme. Once you breathe a little, fighting and fighting become the most important thing every moment.

As the heavy rain stopped, the Asura Army on the grassland could no longer hold back and launched a surprise attack on the city gate directly south.

This is Huanglong's troops. They secretly turned from the East City Gate, but when the Asura army was transferring on the grassland, their whereabouts had been discovered by the scouts of the Asura Imperial Army.

In fact, during the entire rainstorm, neither side relaxed their guard.

On the one hand, Mingtang asked the defenders on the city wall to withstand the offensive of the Asura Army on the grassland, and on the other hand, many famous dead soldiers quietly climbed down the city wall from the secret passage leading to the city outside the city and walked around the back of the Asura Army on the grassland.

Although the number of people was small, the ups and downs attacks in the darkness really made the Asura Army in the grassland lose their positions and retreat in disappointment. The troops he sent this time were not as large-scale frontal attacks as before, but more like sneak attacks.

After nightfall, Huanglong attacked again at night. This time his target was the northwest outer city wall, and the Asura army on the grassland was not a random collision.

Unlike other city walls, this section of city wall is located at the foot of the mountain and is built on a gentle slope. There is no cliff to rely on. It can be said to be the weakness of Gushan City.

Because it is not a very eye-catching and important section of the city wall, the one responsible for guarding is not the elite veterans, but ordinary soldiers belonging to the city.

The Asura Army in the grassland used cloud ladders and flew into the city wall late at night and suddenly attacked. In the night, Huanglong's elite soldiers had a great advantage and killed many village soldiers. Seeing that they had hope of victory, they were instantly driven down to the city by the army sent by Mingtang to reinforce.

The siege has been siege for more than several months, and the Asura army on the grassland has not made any substantial progress, and the morale of the troops has begun to decline. There have been differences of opinions within the Asura generals on the grassland. The suggestion of sending a team to bypass Gushan City and going east has now been re-reflected.

What’s more serious is that dysentery began to spread in the army, which may be caused by incompatibility with the local environment and unclean diet.

Many soldiers of the Asura Army in the grassland vomited and had diarrhea. In severe cases, they were bleeding in the stools and coma. The commander of the army, Zhong Wuwei, was still unmoved. He asked his subordinates to use various folk remedies to treat them temporarily.

This period is the fifth warming period in the history of the Asura world. According to records, the temperature in summer was similar to today. When it came to this Gushancheng area, the summer was hot and humid and the winter was slightly cold.

The area around Gushan City is known as a stove in summer, with high temperature and high humidity, and hot weather.

It lasts for ten months, and once rains fall, it often lasts for more than ten days.

This kind of stuffiness is much harder to get used to than ordinary dry heat, causing people to feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

The Asura warriors on the grassland endure hardships and are not afraid of the cold and cold. In the sudden cold and heavy snow, they still wear armor and hold swords to fight their enemies several times more hard than their own.

However, it is difficult to fully adapt in hot climates and is prone to heatstroke and illness. Try to avoid the hottest seasons every time you conquer.

The grassland riding beasts, famous for their endurance, have always liked sunny and dry environments. Once they encounter heavy heat and long rain, it is difficult to maintain their physical strength and ability to fly.

The Mongolian bow, which is not afraid to underestimate the heavy armored warriors, also has certain requirements for the climate. When the environment is too humid, the bow string will be loose and the range will be greatly affected.

Mingtang, the chief general of the Asura Imperial Army, is not a person waiting to die. When the enemy soldiers were in a state of confusion, he used strange moves.

On that night, the location where the Asura Army leader Zhong Wuwei, who was stationed in the grassland, suddenly fell into chaos. A team of Asura Imperial Army seemed to fall from the sky and rushed through the Asura Army camp in the grassland.

The Asura army on the patrol grassland had no time to react and were knocked down one after another.

These were the dead soldiers led by Mingtang. They sneaked out of the city wall through the drainage secret passage in Gushan City and rushed to Zhong Wuwei Camp several miles away.

The Asura army in the sleeping grassland always thought that it had absolute dominance on the battlefield, but the rhythm of this attack was actually in the hands of the Asura Imperial Army, and the large number of people in the grassland Asura army was unable to wake up.

In the dark night, I really couldn't tell the number of enemies. The Asura Army in the Grassland only knew that the enemy was about to reach the main general's camp, and even the commander's personal guards had to quickly join the battle.

When Mingtang and the dead soldiers rushed to the top of the mountain, they found that the resistance here suddenly increased, which further proved that the direction of the assault was undoubtedly correct, and the enemy's chief general was right in front of them.

Zhong Wuwei, who woke up in the camp, must have expected that the opponent he had always despised would dare to do such a bold move. The guards were all out and fought with the enemy's suicide squad.

In the sword light, Mingtang seemed to be able to see the figure of Zhong Wuwei in the tent.

But reality is reality after all. There are countless Asura troops in the grassland that have been reinforced from all directions. This was the undoubtedly strongest army in the world at that time.

If we want to successfully obtain Zhong Wuwei's life among these troops, unless the gods can do it, the reinforcements that rushed to the scene immediately joined the battle, and the army's suicide squad suffered serious casualties.

When Mingtang saw that the Asura army on the grassland had recovered from the chaos, he took the initiative to lead the remaining subordinates to fight and retreat to the city.

After this battle, Zhong Wuwei was furious and shocked. He was angry that less than one-tenth of his army did not hide in the cave like a mouse, and waited for death.

He dared to take the initiative, and it was not a small fuss, but he wanted to take the head of his neck.

After rewarding reinforcements for timely rescue, Zhong Wuwei was determined to flatten this small small city and must not let others laugh at it. This is related to the honor of the Asura warrior on the grassland and his reputation.

Time flies, Gushan City has been surrounded for almost a year.

The persistence of the Asura army carries the expectations of all local soldiers. At this time, a new sentry detective reported that there was an abnormal movement on the river outside the city. Mingtang immediately discovered that the reinforcements mentioned in the secret report a few days ago had finally arrived.

A little earlier, some Asura generals were unable to resist the invasion of the Asura army on the grassland, so they had already replaced them and were sent to the aid of the generals.

The navy of the Asura Imperial Army broke forward through the Asura Army's floating bridge and the blockade of Abachi, and entered the old city.

After the army rectified the old city's garrison, it immediately prepared to rescue Gushan City. After defeating the Mongolian army nearby, the army parked the warships east of Heishi Gorge. A hundred light boats were vanguards, heading north against the current and heading towards Gushan City.

Zhong Wuwei attached great importance to this news. Once the siege is opened by enemy reinforcements, it means that Gushan City can be replenished with material forces, the enemy's morale will increase, and the siege will be delayed indefinitely.

For traditional siege wars, cutting off the connection between the city and the outside world is the top priority.

The attacker can oppress and attack the city from all directions at the same time, causing the city defenders to lose the source of external food and drinking weapons, allowing them to quickly exhaust the city's reserves.

If there is no hope of rescue for a long time, the psychology of the city guardian will be easily shaken and will easily differentiate the position among the city guardians is not firm and speculators.

The defense will naturally do everything inside and outside to break the siege, either directly reverse the offensive and defensive situation, or make the defending city permanent.

As an experienced general, Zhong Wuwei was in command in Dongshan on the other side of the south side of the city. He allowed most of the troops to continue to trap the Gushan City defenders, prevent Mingtang from taking the opportunity to go out of the city to counterattack, and divided two troops to attack the two sides of the river to set up formations, and ordered his subordinates to lead the fleet to attack.

The vanguard of the Asura Imperial Army, the vanguard of the light boat troops, was preparing to adjust their formation and advance forward because they were sailors and manpower sailing against the current.

Suddenly, there were drums and thunders on the hillsides on both sides of the river bank, and flags were waving from all directions. The Asura Army on the grassland had already taken the lead and the attack began.

The Asura Imperial Army fleet soon discovered that the situation was not good. On the wide river surface, a large number of regular Asura Army warships of different traits rushed towards each other neatly.

On the bank of the river, there were countless Asura archers and stone throwers on the grassland at the same time shooting at themselves from the flanks.
