Cries of killing continued one after another, and large numbers of Parthian soldiers attacked the city one after another.
Although Lu Rong had prepared sufficient defensive supplies and equipment, the strength of Lan's City was much worse than that of Hua's City. Even after Lu Rong took office, he strengthened the height of the city wall and increased the strength of the city wall.
To this extent, it is still not easy to resist the attack of the Parthian soldiers.
Lu Rong was under great defensive pressure today.
Far more than before.
Thanks to Lu Rong who personally summoned the people and soldiers yesterday to give lectures, calm the hearts of the people, organize the soldiers and civilians in the city, and fight with all their strength on the city tower, we were able to block the Parthian army's offensive today.
To this day, Lu Rong is still under great pressure.
However, Lu Rong held firm.
Countless people in the city are waiting, all of them are reserve troops, all of whom came to join the war on their own initiative. Everyone knows one thing, that is, if Lan City is destroyed, their good days will be gone, and they will not be able to live as they do now.
So, no one relaxes.
No one is hiding.
With the joint defense of large numbers of soldiers and civilians, the Parthian army's offensives were defeated time and time again.
This situation made Shamir very embarrassed.
Shamir told Olivia that it would take at most two days to break through Lan's City and achieve complete victory. But today, after attacking for a long time, it was almost lunch time, and there was no sign of a breakthrough even after attacking the tower.
On the contrary, many soldiers were buried in the city.
Shamir looked at Olivia, who was calm and collected, with a somewhat anxious expression, and said with a smile: "Princess Olivia, today's offensive has encountered unprecedented resistance. We are attacking fiercely, and the opponent is also defending fiercely. It seems that today,
It is very difficult to win. But we will definitely win tomorrow. There is no use for Her Royal Highness to stay here, so why not go back to the camp."
Olivia shook her head and said: "There are people in the camp who are responsible for guarding, so there is no need for anyone to keep an eye on it. The first task now is to directly break the city, that is, to seize Lan's City. Only in this way can we wait for reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty.
Only then can we counterattack the other side. Otherwise, it will be very difficult."
Shamir said in a deep voice: "Lan's City is too securely defended."
His face became colder and colder, and he quickly said: "How about we adjust our strategy and change our offensive against Lan's City?"
Olivia asked: "What strategy?"
Shamir's eyes were cold and serious, and he said with murderous intent: "We have reached Lan's City, but from the beginning to the end, we have not taken action against the ordinary people nearby. Now, we are arranging a group of soldiers to disperse and arrest a large number of ordinary people when they come back.
Just threaten these people to attack the city. If these people go to attack, I believe that the people in Lan's City will definitely be able to break Lan's City without such an offensive."
Olivia thought quickly in her mind.
Shamir had made a suggestion before, but Olivia rejected it because Olivia hoped that by winning Lan's City, she could win over the people.
Only with the support of the people can a place be governed.
Once these local people are driven out and used as cannon fodder to attack the city, the impact will be great, and countless people will resist the Parthian state. At that time, it will be very difficult to win over the people.
How to choose?
Olivia thought quickly in her heart.
"Report!"
At this moment, a shout came, and a sentinel ran back as if flying and reported: "Your Highness the Princess, the army led by Albaf and Li Gusta failed to block the Ming army's reinforcements. Now,
General Albaf was killed and General Gusta is escaping. Our army is running everywhere and has completely collapsed. Currently, reinforcements from the Ming army are coming in large numbers and are preparing to rush to Lanshi City."
brush!
Olivia's expression suddenly changed.
His expression was extremely solemn.
Lu Gushan's defense line collapsed, which led to changes in the war in Lanshi City.
Shamir looked anxious and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the situation is very urgent. I suggest that we retreat immediately. If we don't retreat now, the troops from Lan's City will come out by then, and we will cooperate with the troops coming to rescue us. We will put pressure on
It’s going to be huge.”
Olivia thought quickly, weighing whether to stay or not.
Once they evacuated, their plan to attack Lan's City ended in failure, and there was no chance of victory.
If you stay and fight, you still have a chance.
Although Olivia was anxious, she remained calm. He said in a deep voice: "Shamir, let me ask you something. If reinforcements come, can you defeat them?"
Shamir said: "What do you mean?"
Olivia looked serious and said: "We have been attacking Lan's City, but we have encountered unprecedented resistance. Now that reinforcements from Lan's City have arrived, under the premise that our Lugu Mountain defense line has failed, we actually have a chance to defeat the opponent.
The prerequisite for leading out of the city is that we can block the incoming reinforcements."
hiss!
Shamir took a breath.
He looked shocked and said, "Does Her Majesty the Princess intend to fight on two fronts?"
"certainly!"
Olivia answered firmly.
A sharp expression appeared on her cold face, and she said in a deep voice: "We now know clearly the Ming army's reinforcements. There is a high possibility that we will use our troops to block this reinforcement, leaving only a part of the cavalry.
Guard the outside of the city, and Lu Rong will come out with his army."
"Once the opponent comes out, this is our opportunity."
"While blocking the reinforcements, send cavalry to defeat Lu Rong's men and capture Lan's City."
"This is our chance."
Olivia's eyes were blazing, without any concession or fear, and she said loudly: "Do you think our plan is feasible?"
Shamir also weighed it quickly in his mind.
He is also a veteran in the army and has his own judgment and wisdom. After thinking for a while, he saw Olivia's calm expression and said, "Your Highness, we have a complete chance."
"We have ten thousand cavalry. Arbaf went out with one thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry. Gusta went out with three thousand cavalry. We still have six thousand elite cavalry here."
"This is our confidence."
"According to the general's judgment, we don't need too many elites. We only need three thousand cavalry, which is enough to deal with the cavalry that comes out, which is enough to defeat the opponent and achieve the final victory."
Shamir said: "All the troops will be used to fight against the Ming army's reinforcements. We will definitely win this battle."
"Yes, we will definitely win."
Olivia answered confidently.
She looked serious and spoke further: "However, we have one thing to change, that is, it is too careless to use three thousand cavalry to fight Lu Rong. At least four thousand cavalry are needed, leaving two thousand cavalry to charge with you.
check."
"This time, I, along with four thousand cavalry, will stay in formation outside the city to keep an eye on Lu Rong."
"I will display my handsome flag and wait for him to come."
"Currently, counting the soldiers who died before and the infantry lost today in Lugu Mountain, we have lost at least 15,000 people, and there are still more than 35,000 elite infantrymen left."
"Such an elite force once defeated the army of the Roman Empire."
"This time, facing the elite of China's dynasty, we will definitely win."
Olivia said loudly: "Shamir, once we defeat this Ming army reinforcements, we will pick peaches and obtain Tianzhu. Originally, it would be very difficult for us to capture Tianzhu, and we would have to
Constantly fighting with each other."
"Now, the Ming army defeated the people of Tianzhu. We defeated the Ming army and took over everything smoothly."
"By winning Tianzhu, our territory will be even broader. As for you, Shamir, because of your great contribution in this battle, you will have the opportunity to be granted the title of Duke, and you will also be able to gain a city for your family."
Shamir's expression became increasingly excited and excited, and he was also attracted by the blueprint drawn by Olivia.
What an opportunity!
This is opportunity.
Shamir suddenly raised his voice and said loudly: "My beautiful and noble princess, please rest assured. This time to resist the Ming army's reinforcements from Huashi City, I will personally go into battle to kill the enemy, personally direct the war, and destroy the opponent."
Olivia praised: "General Shamir, you are brave and invincible. I believe that you can not only block the opponent's offensive, but also defeat the opponent."
Shamir bowed and quickly adjusted the arrangements.
Currently, there are more than 10,000 infantry troops going to attack the city. These troops are attacking fiercely. More troops are still arrayed and not attacking.
Now, Shamir makes arrangements in advance.
Shamir arranged everything properly and arranged the cavalry tasks. After arranging all the matters, he returned to Olivia and waited quietly. As time passed by, the fighting on the city wall continued.
Lu Rong still resisted steadily.
During the fierce tug of war between the two sides, a sentinel quickly arrived at Shamir's side and reported: "General Shamir, reinforcements from the Ming Army have arrived. Currently, they are less than five miles away from Lanshi City."
Shamir nodded, looked at Olivia, and said loudly: "Dear Princess, I'm going."
"Go ahead."
Olivia nodded.
Shamir quickly issued an order to withdraw all the infantry, and took more than 30,000 infantry to attack Cao Cao's army.
As a princess, Olivia carried a handsome flag and four thousand cavalry in formation to guard outside the city.
She clearly told Lu Rong that she was responsible for blocking. She also believed that Lu Rong would definitely attack when he saw this situation, because taking her down would be an excellent opportunity for Lu Rong.
Shamir left with his army and soon disappeared from sight, and the pressure on the tower decreased.
Lu Rong soon saw the adjusted situation outside the city.
Kuai Rui stood beside Lu Rong and said quickly: "Your Majesty, according to the news from our people, the reinforcements arranged by your Majesty have arrived. Now, the Parthian Kingdom has made adjustments and first arranged a large army to block the reinforcements, but
A cavalry team is left outside. Moreover, the flag of the Parthian coach is here. Should we take the initiative to go out of the city to attack now?"
