Chapter 68: Give Up


"Princess Fidoya, do you think that you and your followers still have considerable authority over the people of your kingdom?

Or, will they still be willing to follow you?"

"Yes, I have always believed this.

Our subjects of the Kingdom of Divine Light are the most loyal people.

We love them and they love us.

We did not lose the hearts of the people because of our violence and cruelty.

Our failure was just because The Black Cloud Empire’s army is too powerful.”

Wen Yuan showed a smile and ignored Yang Tian who was standing next to him and almost drooled at Fidoya.

He nodded and said, "Then, as long as you can cooperate with us to appease the people of the original Shenguang Kingdom and let them passively assist The army of the Black Cloud Empire, we will allow your kingdom to retain its independent power."

Yang Tian came from River Valley City overnight, nodded quickly and said to Fidoya with a smile: "Yes, yes, you just need to send a few ministers out to contact the former nobles and common people, and ask them to supply Heiyun Putting some poison or something in the empire's food will help a lot."

Fidoya smiled sweetly at Yang Tian and nodded gently.

Wen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Yang Tian, ​​and frowned slightly.

Long Feng's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he returned to normal instantly.

Wen Yuan ordered: "Everyone, get ready.

We will push them back a thousand miles with all our strength, leaving us enough land.

Beyond that, it is the land of the former Shenguang Kingdom.

It is the turn of Her Royal Highness Princess Fidoya and those who are loyal to you.

We are here.

Let's kill him while our morale is high."

The generals walked out of the commander's house and led their guards.

The messengers galloped wildly in the camp that stretched for hundreds of miles, and the smoke used to lead the troops rose into the sky.

Hundreds of black-clothed monks and apricot-colored monks floated into the sky one after another, and the rays of light flashed rapidly.

Amidst the rumbling drums, soldiers in black clothes and black armor, gold helmets and gold armor, silver robes and silver armor, and other soldiers with different costumes came out of the camp one after another, and gathered into a thick iron stream, rushing towards Hongyan City. go.

Huge slingers, giant crossbows, new or old artillery, surrounded by groups of soldiers, followed the large group of people.

The nine thousand disciples of Old Ghost Black Sky were flying more than ten feet above the ground in an arrogant manner.

The cavalry of the Tiger and Wolf Army and a large number of cavalry from the Western Continent walked slowly on both sides of the infantry.

Two and a half million troops were involved in this deterrence campaign.

The soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire were frightened by the arrival of a large group of reinforcements.

They saw a large number of teams heading towards the Red Rock City where Strungen and other senior officials were.

In the three nearby cities, a large number of cavalry Running out.

Immediately, the cavalry team, totaling more than one million people, divided into three teams and attacked them arrogantly.

Thousands of artillery pieces marching in the team were immediately set up.

After a slight calibration, they roared at the enemy team a few miles away.

Smoke filled the air, and balls of fire rose from the ground.

Countless black cloud cavalry He screamed and fell off his horse, his blood mixed with the soil, dyeing the entire earth purple.

The densely packed crossbow arrows, like metal waterfalls, continued to pour down towards the black cloud cavalry.

The bows and arrows falling from high altitudes had amazing power.

Countless cavalry were shot through the body, or were nailed to the ground.

The old ghost Heitian gave an order, and five thousand black energy swept out, and the whole world immediately turned into a miserable ghost monster.

The remaining four thousand disciples frantically absorbed the anger and resentment of the dead, and continuously injected black energy into it.

The ghost tower of the old ghost.

Yang Tian led a group of his own troops and looked feebly at the lively fighting ahead.

Genu was itching all over his body and complained: "Why should we defend the city instead of killing people?

It feels so uncomfortable to hold it in."

Zeng Guoxuan said with a smile: "If you feel uncomfortable, then just find a girl to relieve your anger. . . .

Hahahaha. . . .

"These young men are very happy that they don't have to go to the battlefield anymore.

Long Feng gently rode his horse to Yang Tian's side and whispered: "Be careful.

Although Wen Yuan takes care of you for the sake of your father, his real loyalty is to you and the princess.

It doesn’t matter if you’re in bed, just don’t let him discover you, otherwise, you might be transferred back.”

Yang Tian's eyes turned cold and he said coldly: "Wen Yuan and I don't have any feelings at all.

It will be settled by then.

Anyway, no matter how many people are around him, you can handle it, right?"

Long Feng nodded.

He suddenly raised his head and praised loudly and said: "I always thought that those countries in the Western Continent had little fighting power, but now it seems that they are not bad."

The heavily armored cavalrymen of the Black Cloud Empire were falling off their horses one after another.

The cavalry brigade of the Tiger and Wolf Army was like the hardest awl, cutting hard into a black cloud cavalry and sweeping past.

The cavalrymen from the nomadic countries in the Western Continent were wrapped in simple leather armor, and they were holding simple but most suitable bows and arrows.

They had no habit of confronting the enemy head-on.

They dispersed into small groups of cavalry and shot down enemies who were not as mobile as themselves with long arrows from a distance.

In comparison, although the Tiger and Wolf Army had superhuman combat power, many people were injured, but not a single one of these cavalrymen engaged in guerrilla warfare was injured.

Yang Tian suddenly snickered: "These cavalry will definitely return to the Western Continent in the future.

If they know about it, their troops can be shot to death slowly one by one like the cavalry of the Black Cloud Empire.

What do you think?"

What would they think?”

Long Feng smiled and said softly: "Then, you have to give them some fire.

After all, you are also the prince of Saint Dor, and you are still one of our own with them."

Yang Tian nodded, slapped his horse hard, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, let them kill here, let's go back to River Valley City, damn, the girls by the river are so charming.

I feel bad."

A group of young men laughed, mixed with a trace of indescribable obscenity.

This team of more than 10,000 people rushed out and easily eliminated a Black Cloud Cavalry of less than 200 people.

The commander of the Black Cloud Empire Cavalry immediately dispatched a team of more than 20,000 people to chase Yang Tian and the others.

He thought that Yang Tian's team was going to sneak attack his rear.

Longfeng threw hundreds of huge fireballs, which exploded and caused the chasing team to flip over.

They were instantly eliminated by the clashing cavalry from the tiger and wolf army.

At the head of Hongyan City, the generals of the Black Cloud Empire looked solemnly at the siege team that was still slowly moving forward despite the constant harassment and impact of the Black Cloud Empire's cavalry brigade.

Strogen sighed: "Their equipment is much better than ours.

Their artillery, our country's strength, is only 500.

There is no way to fight this battle."

As the new army arrived, a prince supervising the battle asked puzzledly: "We have more troops than them, and we are also elites who have experienced hundreds of battles.

Is there no way we can deal with them?"

Tungulas explained patiently: "Your Highness, if it is a field battle, then we have a certain advantage, but they will definitely not fight with us.

If we go out of the city to attack, then they will defend the city.

If we are in Inside the city, they rely on superior siege equipment to attack the city, and we have no way to deal with them. " Strogen sighed and said: "If we have the same artillery as them, then we can fight them fairly.

Our soldiers are not weaker than them.

Fight them first, and then abandon the city Fall back."

Tungulas agreed: "Rely on natural danger and their defense..."

The prince became angry: "Are you going to keep retreating, retreating back to the imperial capital?

You are the nobles of the empire, or the knights of the empire.

Do you want to give up all glory, retreat to your own mansion like a ghost, and hide in the rooms of your wives and concubines?

Is the skirt shaking?"

The prince's words were too unpleasant to hear.

Strogen's eyes widened, and a powerful and frightening momentum surged through his body.

He said word by word: "We are not retreating, we are strategically shifting when we really have no choice.

Your Highness, if the Empire provides us with the same artillery as them, we can fight on a fair basis, otherwise, for the lives of the Empire's soldiers, we must find another fighter."

The prince almost sat down on the floor, Strongen's momentum was too scary.

Tungulas smoothed things over and said: "Actually, they have more than five thousand artillery pieces.

If we can kill their artillery, this would be ideal.

If we use surprise troops to ambush, this combat goal can still be achieved.

Of course. , Our own artillery production must speed up.

We have suffered hardships on their northern continent, but a large amount of the empire's funds have been donated to the development of artillery."

The eyes of the archmage of several temples emitted a strange red light, and they shouted angrily: "Don't you doubt the great god?

Isn't it inappropriate to dedicate money to the great god and let the great god protect the empire?

If you haven't developed enough artillery, it's your army's fault."

The people here are incompetent, do you just want to use this excuse to insult the temple?"

Strogan pushed away Tungulas, who was already holding the sword hilt, and smiled at the several archmage companions: "Lord Tungulas didn't mean this.

Please forgive me, forgive me.

Now that the troops are approaching, Tungulas, prepare to lead some people out to attack.

After all, they won't dare to fire randomly after their troops approach."

Tungulas agreed angrily and went down the tower.

A small group of cavalry galloped back and forth near the city gate.

Judging from the armor on their bodies, they were all middle- and lower-ranking officers with low status or the lowest-status cavalry.

The prince who was supervising the battle poked his head out, pointed curiously and said, "These are the aliens in really strange costumes.

Are they the only ones who can defeat our empire?"

Strogen smiled, bowed slightly and said, "Of course not, dear prince..."

In that small cavalry team, a lean man suddenly took out a strange-shaped giant bow, attached a long steel arrow, and fully pulled the bowstring.

Then, there was no sound of the arrow breaking through the air.

At the sound of the sound, a transparent hole appeared in the prince's head, and a small injection of blood spurted out.

The cavalry team cheered and rode back quickly.

General Lee was very proud.

When he saw Strongen saluting the prince, he subconsciously fired an arrow at him.

A man who can make the commander-in-chief of a country bow. , he must be a person with some status, right?

Strogen was stunned, the surrounding generals of the Black Cloud Empire were stunned, and the archmages of several temples also stood on the spot dumbfounded.

This prince was the most favored royal family member of the Emperor of the Black Cloud Empire.

Now, in front of them, the prince was shot to death by an archer from the other side.

Everyone present would be charged with some crime.

Stromgen shouted wildly: "You bastards with hidden arrows, come here, come and fight me."

The prince made a gurgling sound in his throat and fell to the ground, as if a mountain collapsed, hitting him heavily. caught the hearts of those present.

A general at the command level asked in a whisper: "How is it possible?

That archer is at least 150 feet away from here in a straight line.

Even the strongest archer in the empire can't..."

Strogan took a long breath and said coldly: "I remember him, the most powerful and despicable archer among the aliens."

He remembered the first time he fought against the army, The arrow that almost caused the sword filled with powerful fighting spirit to escape his hand was the same arrow that opened a skylight in the butt of the last imperial envoy.

The siege army slowly set up camp ten miles away from the city.

Nearby, nearly two million cavalry were still clashing and assassinating each other on the battlefield within a hundred miles radius.

However, the siege army ignored these and settled down in an orderly manner.

Arrive at the camp.

To the surprise of the Black Cloud Empire's military, the army did not rely on arrogance to attack the city.

There were only 300,000 defensive troops left in the City of Paradise.

The other armies all moved towards places thirty miles away from the cities where the Black Cloud Empire garrisoned, looming as a threat to their flanks and preventing them from having the courage.

He rashly supported Hongyan City.

The offensive and defensive battle of Hongyan City will begin again.

The only difference is that the containment troops have received strict orders not to go out to fight.

They only need to make a bigger noise nearby.

Yang Tian's River Valley City became an isolated city near the three cities occupied by the Black Cloud Empire.

He had a total of 500,000 troops under his command.

The Black Cloud troops in the three nearby cities exceeded 1.3 million, but they could only They watched Yang Tian's subordinates wandering around the city.

It was impossible for their troops to conquer River Valley City, and their responsibilities did not allow them to risk the city's fall and desperately rescue Hongyan City.

The two sides were in a stalemate.

The cavalry battle lasted for three hours.

When the horses of both sides were exhausted, both sides withdrew their troops at the same time.

The supporting Black Cloud Empire Army was unable to break through the Jun's blockage.

The Jun watched with satisfaction as his army faintly swept away the Red Rock City.

Isolated from reinforcements.

After calming down, Strogen has already begun to figure out how to make the army retreat safely.

There are more than 600,000 troops in Red Rock City and the two camps in the south.

He is not worried about being captured quickly.

The siege army delayed for three days under the city.

These three days were like a year for the entire Black Cloud Empire army.

All the armies were waiting to see the result of the first confrontation, but they refused to move.

These experienced soldiers The elite black cloud soldiers who were fighting couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Some of the soldiers who had fought against the army in the Western Continent also began to recall the disastrous defeat at that time, which also slightly affected the morale of the Black Cloud Empire.

A huge sand table was placed in Long Feng's room.

Seeing that there were more than ten million troops from both sides gathered within an area of ​​only a thousand miles, plus a much larger number of local residents, Long Feng was depressed.

Sigh: "This population density, and the land The most perverted modern cities on the planet have a chance to fight.

There is no way to deploy troops on such a small battlefield...

There are still three armies coming.

Damn it, what should I do?

"He hurriedly went to find Yang Tian.

In less than a meal, Yang Tian sent out an orderly soldier to deliver one of his documents to Wenyuan's camp.

It was suggested that the three-pronged army should not continue to move here, but avoid the traditional sphere of influence of the Black Cloud Empire and land on another continent where their control is relatively weak, so that the Black Cloud Empire would be attacked from the back and front, and also save the number of troops here.

Too much, and there will be problems with deployment.

Wen Yuan pondered for a while, then quickly wrote a document, instructing him to send it back to Shengjing as quickly as possible, and then issued an order to attack the city.

More than two hundred boulders rose from the ground and roared towards the head of the Hongyan City.

A few boulders that were not strong enough had no choice but to make love with the outer wall of the city wall, bringing down a large piece of bricks, earth and rocks.

Wandered a few times.

Then, with the sound of cracking bones and flesh, pieces of black cloud soldiers were swept away, and the meat sauce was wrapped on the boulders and rolled into the city.

The five thousand artillery pieces slowly raised their barrels and aimed at the city wall of Hongyan.

Although in Long Feng's eyes, these artillery pieces were nothing more than small-caliber field artillery, and they were the most primitive ones. , but for this world that is still in the age of cold weapons, it is already extremely powerful firepower.

Stretching for more than five miles, countless fireballs appeared on the northern wall of Red Rock City.

The dull explosion made the entire ground tremble.

The guards on the wall let out shrill screams, but they were completely enveloped by the sound of the cannons.

Covered.

Under the cover of gunpowder smoke and firelight, more than a dozen baggage trucks were quickly pushed to the city wall, containing more than three thousand kilograms of what was known as a powerful poison on the earth in Longfeng's era.

More than a hundred soldiers lit the fuse and then ran desperately towards their camp.

They quickly ran more than two hundred feet, and the medicine cart that burned slightly faster exploded, and their figures were also swallowed up by the huge fireball.

The powerful shock wave blew up one-third of the northern wall of Hongyan City, and then destroyed a large number of buildings inside the city.

These civil structures were simply smashed to pieces by the power of this zha drug that was beyond the times.

Ten miles away from the city, the soldiers felt a powerful heat wave hitting their faces and a huge shaking on the ground.

Wen Yuan and a group of senior generals opened their mouths and stared blankly at the small, strange mushroom cloud over Hongyan City.

During this battle, more than 20,000 soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire guarding Red Rock City were permanently deaf.

After Stronggen and Tungulas woke up from the powerful explosion, they roared and issued orders to retreat completely.

When waiting for the army to enter Hongyan City, there were only corpses on the ground and tens of thousands of Hongyan residents struggling and groaning on the blood-stained ground.

Wen Yuan was silent for a long time, and then he asked in a low voice: "How many of these zha medicines have we brought?"

One of his adjutants reported stammeringly: "Five ships, more than 200,000 jins."

Wen Yuan nodded and ordered: "From now on, the warehouses where these medicines are placed must be more than thirty miles away from the base camp.

When marching, the transport vehicles cannot approach the queue for twenty miles.

Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."

The order was quick.

The message was passed on.

Yang Tian and others, who were sitting at the head of the river valley city drinking, watched as the black cloud soldiers slowly left the city in an orderly manner and slowly retreated to the south.

At the same time, a fire broke out in the city.

Yang Tian exclaimed: "These bastards, they are setting fire to the food and grass that cannot be taken away, so that I can rush to put out the fire...

If they burn all the food and grass, they will have nothing to eat at most.

Gold and silver jewelry.”

Before he finished speaking, Zeng Guoxuan and Jiang Chunshui had already led people to jump off the top of the city.

An unlucky guy sprained his foot and screamed strangely below the top of the city.

Long Feng smiled bitterly on the side.

He had just used his spiritual mind to see everything that happened in Hongyan City.

The army that had mastered the powerful zha drug did not even test its power before rashly jumping into the battlefield.

It weighed more than three thousand kilograms. . .

They actually put it up like this, and surprisingly still used human hands to light the fire.

The Black Cloud Empire retreated very cautiously and gave up a large area of ​​land.

The army slowly saw them off from behind, and at the same time took over the political power along the way.

Those who suddenly appeared and announced that they were the nobles of a certain kingdom, were all dealt with by the killers from the secret camp.

Wenyuan did not dare to order an attack on the retreating black cloud army.

They were ready to counterattack at any time.

Wenyuan was unwilling to waste his strength blindly in a battle where he could not take advantage.

Therefore, the two sides were separated by thirty miles.

After walking for more than twenty days, the Black Cloud Empire's army finally stopped on the other side of a large east-west river and set up a new line of defense based on this river.

The army also stopped, deployed countless forts on this side of the river, and began to prepare for the next assault.

Strogen's request letters were sent to the imperial capital like snowflakes, and the Black Cloud Empire began to make every effort to manufacture the ordnance he needed.

In the letter, Strogen made a judgment based on the current situation: "If more than four thousand artillery pieces and corresponding ammunition cannot be provided within three months, the Black Cloud Empire will definitely perish...

I will only I can hold on for three months.”

In order to thwart the advance preparations, the Black Cloud Empire sent small groups of troops across the river from time to time to carry out suicidal attacks.

However, they also burned a lot of ships, wood and other items, causing the military a huge headache. . .

The only ones who were generous were Yang Tian and others.

They searched all the way from the rear.

There were already many baggage cars in the marching queue, and they were heavy with gold, silver, and treasures.

Once they return, at least everyone in the Guards Regiment will be rich
