Chapter 123 Capture of Xiangping
Two days later.
Xiangping City, Yan State.
Endless artillery fire is burning.
Arrows rained down all over the sky.Hundreds of thousands of troops pushed forward against the attack on the tower.
The damage these bows and arrows can cause to the monster army is not too great.But it was fatal to the soldiers of the Bai family army.
The war has been going on all day.
Both sides suffered casualties.
However, the soldiers in Xiangping City relied on the tall city walls, and the number of casualties was much less than that of Jianzong.
The garrison of 50 troops is already the limit of the royal family, and the current royal family's strength is at most less than 100 million.The Bai family army led by Yan Tingyun is still attacking Yuyang.
Yuyang City is just a small city, without the protection of a tall city.But it was Yan Tingyun's last line of defense to directly attack the capital city Ji after Wuyang City was captured.
Once Yuyang is lost, millions of Bai family troops will be able to march straight in, and Yan Tingyu's rule will completely collapse.
Fifty miles outside Xiangping City, there is the Jianzong camp.
Chu Fan looked at the battle report from the front line in his hand, and his face was a little unhappy.
Xiangping City Wall is too thick.
Even if the monster army can break through the rain of arrows on the city tower, it will not be too easy to break through Xiangping.
I currently only have this 50 army under my command, and I still have to rely on them to deal with the upcoming first major catastrophe.
If all the troops are lost here, Chu Fan may not be able to easily survive the next catastrophe.
The resistance on the city tower was very strong, and the force was still on par with Jianzong's troops.It seems that it is not an easy task to capture Xiangping City easily.
The production efficiency of Jianzong's refining room is gradually increasing, and some new types of siege weapons are also being produced continuously.
The original charging carts were all made of sunken wood. Once the kerosene on the city tower is sufficient, it may be difficult to damage the city gate.And the entire car body of the red car that has been transformed by the refining room is made of pure gold.Even if the kerosene upstairs is unlimited, it is difficult to destroy the car.
There is no way, when it comes to money, no one dares to be the number one if Mr. Chu dares to be number two in the world.
The equipment on the 20 Bai family troops who arrived at Jianzong was also completely replaced, and spirit patterns were drawn on the armor.
Ever since he was upgraded to the Silver Sect, Chu Fan began to study the buildings brought by the system.
The refining room has a lot of craftsmen.Including spiritual pattern masters that don’t exist in this world.
This is a special race that uses its own spiritual power to engrave the spirit pattern on the item, and the item will strengthen certain attributes because of the protection of the spirit pattern.
Defense spirit pattern, attack spirit pattern, speed spirit pattern.The spirit pattern masters brought by the system are all the most advanced ones.
Even the rough-skinned and thick-skinned monsters put on new armor, engraved with the Qinglian logo of Jianzong's affiliation.
It is true that Yan Tingyun is Chu Fan's apprentice, even if he had the guts to resist Chu Fan.
But he will take that position after all, and once he takes that position, almost everyone will change.
Power will corrupt people's hearts, and this truth will never change.
Jianzong needs to have his own strength. In order to deal with the disaster that the entire human race is about to face, Jianzong must have his own strength.
All external forces will disappear, and in the end only you can rely on yourself.
Chu Fan, who has lived two lifetimes, knows this truth well.
On Yuyang's side, Yan Tingyun's attack went smoothly. In terms of the number of troops, the Bai family army led by Yan Tingyun far surpassed the army of Yan State.In addition, Yuyang's city wall is not tall, although it has been temporarily reinforced by the Yan army, it still does not have much impact on Yan Tingyun's marching speed.
Without the new weapons of Jianzong, Yan Tingyun's attack seemed so simple and rude.
Hundreds of thousands of infantry advanced forward with tower shields in hand, and the Yan army defending on the tower did not have the explosive bows and arrows and large bed crossbows that Chu Fan had brought out in the previous battle of Jianzong.
As Chu Fan's disciple, Yan Tingyun has never had any worries about military expenses.As a powerful weapon for infantry, the tower shield is also very expensive.But in Yan Tingyun's place, it has become something of a bad street.
The guard of Yuyang City was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.You bastards built a temporary military fortress downstairs.
Let me fight, the bows and arrows in the hands of Yan soldiers really can't do you any harm.If I don't fight, you can take the opportunity to hit me. For a while, the defender is caught in a dilemma.
There are only a few bows and arrows sent here, what should I do if they are not enough?
Hurry up and apply with the capital!
Yan Tingyu has been working hard recently, as soon as he saw Yuyang's messenger, he immediately decided to allocate supplies to them.
But there is none in the imperial city.
what is it now?
We can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Isn't your Xiangping facing only 50 Jianzong troops?You see that your city walls are still so high, so take out some supplies to help your dear companions.
So when Xiangping was still desperately resisting Jianzong's troops, the quartermaster who went to Xiangping was intercepted by the court.
Hundreds of thousands of arrows were sent to Yuyang, without saying hello to the general in Xiangping.
Who would have thought that Xiangping would also use arrows in a hurry!
Jianzong runs to the bottom of my city tower every day when he has nothing to do. Do you think I can bear him running away?Why don't you shoot him with an arrow?
He comes once, I hit once, comes once, I hit once.
Not many people were killed, but the arrows were almost used up.
Yan Tingyun also received news over there.
Master, I have held back Xiangping's arrows for you, and they probably don't have many stocks in the city now.It's up to you.
To be on the safe side, Jianzong still carried out several tentative attacks.
At the beginning, the tower over there was shooting down like crazy, but the artillery fire from above stopped after a while.
Why?
Not a single arrow is gone!
The guard over there is still urging towards the imperial city.
Emperor Yan Tingyu thought about it, or would he cut off Yuyang's supplies?
Before he could act, Yuyang's guards took the first step.Send troops to bring back their supplies directly on the road.
Come on, the imperial city is gone.Yuyang was about to be breached.
Upward civil servants have finally played their part.
Anyway, Xiangping's army has no arrows in hand, so it should be quite difficult to defeat the Jianzong.
If they are wiped out by Jianzong, who will protect our imperial city?
How about taking them all back?The civil servant issued a proposal.
Yan Tingyu thought about it for a while and it made sense, that's fine, listen to you, we will withdraw all of them to defend the imperial city.
The soldiers left overnight.
The next day Chu Fan personally led the army to Xiangping to call for battle.After yelling outside the door for a long time, no one came out.
What's the matter, the people inside didn't wake up?
When Chu Fan saw this, he wanted to withdraw his troops and go back to sleep.
They are very disrespectful to me!
It was Liu Qing and Xuan Ming beside him who persuaded Chu Fan by talking hard.
"Would you like to wait a while?"
Chu Fan immediately started waiting.
At noon, the sun was scorching hot.
"What are they going to do!" Chu Fan was anxious.
After waiting for a long time, someone finally opened the city gate.
You heard me right, the city gates have been opened!
Chu Fan was completely dumbfounded.
"General, the soldiers guarding the city were all withdrawn last night." A representative of the people came out.
