Chapter 1072 Retreat? Siege?

Day and night, the wild beastmen began to attack the city regardless of any losses.

The shoddy long ladders made from nearby logging were erected on the wall of Unyielding City, and the wild orcs climbed up desperately. Beside each ladder, there were more than a dozen wild orcs pressing down on the ladder to maintain stability and prevent the ladder from falling. was pushed down.

"Push, push the ladder down for me."

The soldiers of the Nirvana Army on the city wall held push rods, and several of them worked together to try to push the ladder down, but if they didn't do it at the first moment when the ladder was on the city wall, it would be very difficult to push down the ladder after it was on top of people. A wild orc appeared on the wall.

"kill."

The soldiers of the Nirvana Army joined forces to attack the wild orcs who had climbed up the wall.

In one-to-many situations, and when they had just climbed the wall and landed on the ground, the wild orcs were often outnumbered and killed, and their corpses were also thrown out of the city wall like falling stones and trees, and smashed into ladders or people below the city wall.

Since there were not many ladders, the soldiers of the Nirvana Army defended each other, but they also repelled wave after wave of attacks from the wild beastmen.

But with the passage of time, the influence of the atmosphere of the war, and the stimulation of losing his comrades in arms constantly, the wild beastmen began to become ruthless.

Suddenly, Halizak had a flash of inspiration and mobilized 5,000 soldiers to go nearby to cut wood to make long ladders, and they kept delivering the finished ladders to the front line.

As more and more ladders were rushed from the rear to the front line, the density of five or six long ladders on the city wall of 100 meters at the beginning developed to the level of five or six long ladders of ten meters later.

The Nirvana Army began to have no time to deal with these ladders. The number of wild orc soldiers who climbed the city wall increased greatly, and the Nirvana Army also began to suffer casualties.

However, with the casualties and the desperate efforts of the wild beasts, there are more and more gaps in the city wall. In some places, the wild beasts have even gained a firm foothold, and there is a tendency to expand. The situation has begun to change. .

Du Si: "I can't hold it anymore."

Fighting from day to night, and from night to day, Dusi was quite exhausted both mentally and physically, and of course everyone else was the same.

But he can still support it, and the inability to support it in his mouth is not referring to himself, but the situation.

Lu Yichuan killed a wild beastman who climbed up the wall, and he was also panting.

"Marshal, the city wall has begun to fall, what should we do now?"

Chen Fang was almost a blood man at this time, and he was stained with the blood of an unknown number of wild orcs.

After wiping off the blood on his face, Chen Fang asked, "Have the people sent out come back?"

The same embarrassed Wenren replied, "Not yet."

Hearing this, Chen Fang gritted his teeth for the following plan: "Order the soldiers to shrink towards the city gate and concentrate their strength. Let's persevere."

But how long this will last, he has no idea, he can only hope

Seeing what Chen Fang said, everyone could only continue to insist.

With the passage of time, except for the upper and lower sections of the city gate, the other parts of the city wall have been completely occupied by wild beasts, and the wild beasts began to come down from the city wall into the city, and surrounded them towards the city gate.

"Marshal, Commander Wan asked me to report that a large number of wild beasts began to appear in the block below. It seems that the trend is to cut off the back road and surround us."

A messenger ran up from the bottom of the city and reported the situation below.

"Marshal, retreat, or you will be surrounded." Du Si said.

Chen Fang hesitated.

If he retreats before receiving any further news, it may affect his next arrangement.

But if you don't retreat at this time, once you are surrounded by wild beasts, the consequences will be even worse.

After weighing, Chen Fang made a decision.

"retreat."

Just when the words were finished, Wenren suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted excitedly:

"Chen Fang, the Griffin is back, and my sister is here too."

Chen Fang was overjoyed, and quickly raised his head to look at the sky. Sure enough, he saw a griffin flying in the distance, and a flying tiger beside him. Needless to say, the only one with the flying tiger mount was Jimo.

"How did she come here?"

"Forget it."

Although he didn't understand why Jimo came here, he didn't have time to think about it at this time, so Chen Fang immediately ordered to retreat.

As the Nirvana army pulled down the city wall, and then left from the north gate before the encirclement formed, the wild orcs completely occupied Unyielding City.

"My lord, I finally won it."

Standing on the top of the wall, Cisco said excitedly.

"I really didn't expect the human race to have such fighting power, which fully withstood the attack of our 70,000 soldiers for two days and one night."

"Qingshui City, which has taller walls, thicker walls and more people, is not so difficult to fight. Why is this human army so powerful?"

"Yeah, it was the toughest fight we've ever fought."

"How dare you say that after this time, we have only fought two battles in total."

After taking down Unyielding City, the officers began to tease them deliberately.

Unlike the others who were a little excited, Halizak frowned.

Although the Unyielding City was won, it also cost a lot.

In order to be able to climb the city wall, dead soldiers piled up under the city wall.

"How about the casualty statistics?"

Halizak asked an officer beside him.

The officer restrained his expression and said, "My lord, it may take some time before we know."

Halizak asked again: "Have you sent anyone to chase after that human army?"

Officer: "Olega has taken someone there."

After that, Halizak didn't ask any more questions, and stood there with a heavy expression, without saying a word.

Seeing Halizak's expression, all the officers shut up and accompanied him with restrained expressions.

After a while, three soldiers came running from different places.

"Report, Commander Meli ordered us to clear the city gate as soon as possible, and they will enter the city later."

"Report, this time our army killed more than 10,000 people, and there were 3,000 seriously injured and 5,000 slightly injured."

"Report, Commander Olega was killed, and the five thousand pursuers were wiped out."

The first and second news did not attract Halizak's attention, but the third news exploded on his head like a thunderbolt.

Halizak's expression changed suddenly, he stepped forward and grabbed the soldier's collar to urge him to ask.

"What did you say, Olega was killed, and five thousand troops were wiped out. Tell me quickly, what's going on."

The soldier was very uncomfortable being grabbed by the collar, his face was flushed, but he didn't dare to resist, so he could only hold his breath and say:

"The human army retreated out of the city, and Olega led the troops to pursue them, but after they didn't want to chase them out, the human army suddenly adjusted their lineup to form a neat formation. Olega led the troops to rush up, and then lost."

The soldier's description was very brief, and the battle process of how Olega lost was not mentioned.

It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but that if he wants to describe it carefully, he may die.

Halizak also realized this, and then let go of the soldier's collar.

The soldier took a few breaths before telling what had happened.

"That human army is very weird, it can arrange a very neat formation in a short period of time, and..."

As the soldiers narrated, Halizak and the other officers' expressions became more and more serious, and at the end they all exclaimed in disbelief.

"Is this a skill effect?"

"should be."

"I don't dare to think, how can there be such a perverted skill in the world that can be blessed to the army."

"But I don't understand. Since there are such skills, why don't they use them during siege battles?"

"There should be restrictions, such as terrain or range."

All the officers discussed one after another.

Halizak was not in the mood to think about this, and asked the soldiers, "Has the human army run away now?"

There was a strange expression on the soldier's face.

"They didn't retreat, but put up a position as if they were going to attack the city."

Halizak froze.

After repelling the pursuers, they didn't take the opportunity to retreat, but wanted to attack the city instead?

"Speed ​​up all the soldiers, let's go and see."
