Chapter 145 Soldiers approaching Blue Rain City
? The single-on-one cavalry is definitely not the opponent of the wolf cavalry, but if it is two-on-one, it will be different. Now there are only 50,000 wolf cavalry, while the brave cavalry has 100,000. So during the battle, the wolf cavalry kept falling down, and the wolf beast under his crotch let out a wail.
One hour later, there were no living wolf cavalry on the battlefield, but the original 100,000 cavalrymen were only 30,000, and the loss was as much as 70,000. This made the brave general bleeding, and he was deeply afraid of the wolf cavalry.
The Lanyu clan had only 200,000 brave and heavy cavalry in total, while the Haci clan had 500,000 wolf cavalry. Not to mention anything else, the wolf cavalry alone had already made the Lanyu clan unable to resist.
The brave general was heavy in his heart, and now he could only hope to defend Lanyu City. Lanyu City is an ancient city with endless years. The city walls and gates are extremely strong, easy to defend but difficult to attack. I believe that it is not easy for the Haci tribe to break Lanyu City.
The brave and heavy cavalry lost 70,000, and the wolf cavalry regiment lost 50,000, which made Tanmu who got the news furious. He originally thought that 50,000 wolf cavalry were foolproof and killed Hou Xun and others, but unexpectedly, a brave general came out and destroyed all his 50,000 wolf cavalry with 100,000 heavy cavalry!
"Damn it, it's really hateful!" Tanmu's face turned pale, and then his face calmed down again. "The Blue Rain Clan's brave army has a total of 350,000 people, including 200,000 heavy cavalry, 50,000 light cavalry, and 100,000 infantry. Although I lost 50,000 wolf cavalry today, the heavy cavalry of the brave army has been reduced by nearly half. In the future, our army is at the city. What will he use to fight me!"
"Yes, what the marshal said is that without the brave and heavy cavalry, those light cavalry and infantry only need our wolf cavalry to charge a few times!" said a deputy general.
"I am the general and the army is moving forward. A camp is set up hundreds of miles outside the Lanyu City. To attack Lanyu City tomorrow morning!" Tanmu said in a deep voice.
"I have the order!"
After receiving the orders, several deputy generals and generals left Tanmu's temporary tent and integrated the army into Blue Rain City.
In the back mountain of Lanyu City, Ye Chen and Hou Yu didn't know the news that Tianguan had fallen. Ye Chen was urging the people in the engineering camp to create a slaughter. After more than ten days of hard work, there are almost ten tons of gunpowder, and hundreds of storage bags are filled.
On the afternoon of that day, as soon as Ye Chen and Hou Yu returned to Tingyuxuan, Xiao Qi hurriedly thought that they had told them about the loss of Tianguan, and also told them about the battle between the brave and heavy cavalry and the wolf cavalry on the plain 300 miles outside Lanyu City.
"I didn't expect that the Wolf Cavalry Regiment was so fierce that even the brave and heavy cavalry almost wiped out with twice the strength." Hou Yu whispered, her eyebrows frowned slightly, full of worry.
"Houyu." Ye Chen looked at her and said, "Don't worry, it's okay to have me in Lanyu City."
In fact, for Ye Chen, the reason why he set up the Shenji Camp was to teach the soldiers to twist strings, teach them to make compound bows, fire crossbows, and **. These were all Ye Chen wanted to repay Houyu. Otherwise, just to save the Lanyu clan, Ye Chen would not spend so much effort. Wouldn't it be easy to kill the leader of the Haci clan directly? In this way, the Haci clan would at least retreat and leave in a short period of time.
"Xiaoqi, how about my elder brother?" Hou Yu asked.
"Princess, your highness is fine, don't worry, princess." Xiaoqi said softly.
"It's fine." Hou Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, Lanyu City was in a tense atmosphere. There was a constant rumbling outside Lanyu City, and dense army appeared in front of Lanyu City, at least 200,000.
Ye Chen also rushed to the city wall. Looking around, there were a large area of black armor and shields ten miles outside the city, and the fiery red wolf were the wolf cavalry of the Haci tribe.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The wolf cavalry slowly pressed in and finally stopped three thousand meters away from Blue Rain City.
In front of the wolf cavalry, a man was wearing fire-colored armor, sitting on the back of a tall wolf beast, looking at the gate of Lanyu City.
"General brave, you and I haven't seen each other for many years, why don't you open the city to welcome my Haci army? I will save you a life at that time. I don't know what General brave will think." Tanmu said loudly.
"Hmph, old thief Tanmu, if you have the ability, come and attack. I want to see if your wolf cavalry regiment is really invincible." General brave sneered.
"Hmph!" Tanmu snorted coldly, "Wolf cavalry lined up to cover, light infantry siege the city, kill!"
"kill!!"
Suddenly, the sky was echoing, and thousands of people roared together, with a shocking momentum.
"The brave and heavy cavalry are waiting in line, and come out of the city to meet the enemy!" The brave general roared and jumped down from the city wall. Below, more than 100,000 heavy cavalry were already being treated solemnly.
"General, no!"
When Ye Chen saw that the brave general was about to bring more than 100,000 heavy cavalry out of the city to fight, he immediately spoke out to stop him.
"Who are you?" The brave general stared at Ye Chen without anger and was powerful. Of course, his momentum was nothing in Ye Chen's eyes.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that if the general opens the city gate to meet the enemy, the biggest reliance of Lanyu City is that these more than 100,000 heavy cavalry will be destroyed!"
"Hmph, I don't need you to teach me when I command the army!" General brave shouted angrily. Although he knew very well that sticking to the best way, under Tanmu's agitated general, he was uneasy and said to the heavy cavalry, "Get out of the city to meet the enemy!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Rumble!
The city gate opened, and more than 100,000 heavy cavalry, led by the brave general, rushed towards the 50,000 wolf cavalry. The battlefield was extremely tragic, with countless soldiers corpses on the ground, and blood was sprinkled.
Although the brave and heavy cavalry were brave, they were not the opponent of the wolf cavalry. After only a moment of rushing, more than half of the brave and heavy cavalry were killed or injured, and the wolf cavalry also lost more than 30,000 people. However, with Tanmu waved his hand, tens of thousands of wolf cavalry rushed over.
"Retreat to the city, hurry!" General bravely stabbed a wolf cavalry with one shot and shouted loudly at his army.
The remaining tens of thousands of heavy cavalry quickly retreated into the city gate, while the wolf cavalry behind followed, as if they wanted to rush into the city with the heavy cavalry.
"Hmph, you guys go back!"
The brave general roared, spread his arms, and a huge spiritual power wall suddenly appeared. He pushed the spiritual power wall alone and pushed all the wolf cavalry that were chasing him to retreat.
After all the heavy cavalry returned to the city, the brave general suddenly withdrew and returned to the Blue Rain City in the gradually closed city gate.
"puff!"
General brave opened his mouth and squirted out a mouthful of blood, and quickly sat down cross-legged and adjusted his breathing slightly.
Ye Chen looked at this brave general, but he was actually a brave but unscrupulous guy. Otherwise, how could he let so many cavalry die in vain, and finally reversed the essence and blood to activate spiritual power, causing him to seriously injure him.
Ye Chen shook his head and sighed, walked behind him, reached out to put his hand on his shoulder, and suddenly a stream of vitality and spiritual power were instilled in the past. The brave general was shocked and looked at Ye Chen with a shocked look on his face.
"How could you...have such a strong vitality!"
Ye Chen smiled and did not answer. Instead, he looked at the brave general and said, "Under the current situation, Lanyu City can only defend, not counterattack. If you counterattack or fight, it will only cause a large number of Blue Rain soldiers to die. Once the Blue Rain soldiers suffer too much casualties, even if they defend the city, they will not be able to defend."
As time passed day by day, the brave general did not leave the city to meet the enemy as he did on the first day. During this period, he had been closing the city gates and guarding them without fighting.
Tanmu, the Marshal of the Haci tribe, did not want to continue to waste this way. He would launch a siege every morning, but none of them worked. There were more than 300,000 soldiers guarding the city in Lanyu City, and all kinds of guarding the city equipment were equipped, and the city gate was unbreakable. The city wall was dozens of feet high, which was actually so easy to break.
In the military camp of the Haci tribe.
"The brave general stayed behind closed doors and did not fight. We attacked the city every day without any results. Instead, many people were killed or injured. This was not a solution." said a deputy general.
"In this way, we can only let the elders in the clan take action. I believe that with the elder's strength, it will be easy to break the gate of Lanyu City. By then, I will rush in and the Blueyu Clan will be completely destroyed!" Tanmu's eyes flashed coldly.
"But Marshal, since ancient times, the elders of our two tribes will not participate in the war. This was agreed earlier. It would be inappropriate to ask the elders to help each other." Another deputy general said.
"What's wrong? The reason for such an agreement in the past was that the Blue Rain tribe and the Haci tribe were comparable to that of the Lan Rain tribe. Now the strength of the Haci tribe is far superior to that of the Blue Rain tribe. This agreement is no binding force. I will immediately send my thoughts to the king, how to make a decision and wait for the news of my king." Tanmu said, and ordered someone to take the pen and ink, and after writing it, tie it to the legs of the pigeon. The pigeon spread its wings and flew without a trace.
Three days later, in Tingyuxuan, Ye Chen looked at the thousands of soldiers in Shenji Camp with satisfaction. The string shooting technique was already proficient enough, and the crossbow archers were also extremely flexible and the arrows were shot without any slightest.
On that day and night, Ye Chen led the soldiers of two engineering battalions out of Lanyu City, and then buried the three thousand meters ahead of Lanyu City, nearly twenty pauses, buried them in a radius of several miles. He then formed all the pauses, and then covered them with soil, leaving only a long enough lead to extend into Lanyu City. After doing all this, it was already late at night.
Ye Chen returned to Tingyuxuan, Houyu had not yet slept. When she saw Ye Chen coming back, she turned around and walked back to her boudoir. After a while, she walked into Ye Chen's room with a set of silver armor.
"Hou Yu, you are..." Ye Chen was slightly stunned at the armor in Hou Yu's hand.
"This is a war armor tailored for you. You are now the brave general enthroned by this princess. It's not possible to have a set of majestic armor." Hou Yu said with a smile.
"Thank you, I will definitely put him on tomorrow." Ye Chen took over the armor. The metal felt cold, but his heart was warm.
On the morning of the next day, Ye Chen put on his armor, looking like a silver god of war, looking heroic. Hou Yu looked at him, wondering what he thought of, and his face turned slightly red.
