The Era of Generals

The heads belonged to the enemy.

While guarding the west gate, Chen Ze did not relax his vigilance towards the other two gates.

People must stay at the west gate. If the poisonous fog army finds that the other two gates are empty, the fool will continue to wait patiently for the fire wall to go out.

Chen Ze did not miss this detail. When he saw the poisonous mist army starting to gather, he sent Meng Yang and others out to ambush them on the only way to the south gate.

Although he couldn't use generals at that time, Meng Yang and others were not low in force, and they were all elite veterans who had experienced many battles, and they also had the help of Chen Mingzhi who was well versed in scouting. They slipped by under their noses.

The scout squad of more than ten people sent by General Fang was like lambs sent to the tiger's mouth automatically. They never returned and turned into bloody heads in Meng Yang's hands.

"Brother, what do you mean..."

Meng Yang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but glanced outside the city.

"There are still too many of them."

Chen Ze stared coldly at the outside of the city, turned around and reported the location again, and then said: "Give you a thousand soldiers and horses, do you dare to go out of the city to fight?"

Meng Yang laughed loudly, pounding his chest until he said proudly, "Why don't you dare!"

"very good!"

Chen Ze said coldly: "The morale of the army outside the city has been disturbed, and the combat power has dropped by at least 30%. You are here to kill as many enemies as possible. Even if you can't wipe out all the enemies, you must drive them back to the forest of poisonous mist!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped Meng Yang's shoulder heavily, which seemed to others as a sign of encouragement, but in fact, he secretly injected Wu Anguo's general star into Meng Yang's body.

"The last general takes orders!"

Meng Yang straightened his face, and solemnly clasped his fists at Chen Ze, "I will live up to my trust!"

At this time, although the city is screaming and chaotic, the range of the trebuchet is always limited. After throwing away the damaged siege equipment, even if the trebuchet modified by Chen Ze hits farther, it can't deal with it. It in turn does a lot of damage.

At a glance, there are at least 5,000 enemy troops under the city.

The morale of these people was already in disarray at this time, and even though they could no longer be assembled to pose a threat to the city gate, there were still too many people.

If you can't inflict heavy damage on it at this time, it will be a troublesome thing after the enemy army under the city is broken into pieces and scattered like birds and beasts.

With the current strength of Xiyun City, it is not a big problem to guard one city gate, but it is very difficult to guard three gates separately.

Once the opponent's general comes to his senses tomorrow and reorganizes the scattered troops into several small-scale raid troops, if they attack three city gates at the same time, it may not be easy to defend.

That's why he asked Meng Yang to go out of the city to kill the enemy, and try to reduce the number of enemy troops as much as possible. It would be great if he could drive them back to the forest of poisonous mist in one fell swoop.

After this battle, not to mention the great damage to the poisonous mist army's vitality, the morale of the forcibly twisted together due to interests will also collapse. How easy is it to make a comeback after fleeing back to the lair?

Even if they want to come, it will be a few days later. With the buffer of this period of time, the three-way reinforcements will arrive anyway. When the troops are sufficient, it is uncertain who will fight who!

The so-called precautions, Chen Ze, who was not dazzled by the victory in front of him, would not give the opponent another chance!

"return!"

"Damn it for me to stop!"

General Fang, who was lucky enough to escape under the intensive artillery fire of the catapult, was in a panic, and jumped on an unowned startled horse to chase the panicked soldiers.

After chopping down several soldiers who didn't listen to the command, he raised his sword on his horse and yelled imposingly: "Anyone who dares to run away will be punished as a deserter, and he will be killed!"

After all, he is an iron-blooded general who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Together with his aura, he suppressed many fugitives who belonged to the poisonous mist forest on the spot, and with the help of elite soldiers brought from the Zhuyan Empire, he managed to stabilize the situation.

"General Fang, what are you doing?"

A big man covered in blood was squeezed out of the crowd, but it was Chief Xu who was quick to take a step back when he saw the opportunity.

At this time, his expression was also unkind, and he said angrily: "Now that the general situation is over, you still tell the brothers to stop, do you want us to die!"

As soon as he said that, there were many people attached to him, and many soldiers looked at General Fang more and more sternly.

These people are not ordinary soldiers, but ferocious fugitives. They were used by General Fang because of their interests before, and it is obvious that they are no longer able to attack the city. As Chief Xu said, this is not to make it clear that they will...

die!

With this in mind, many people began to move closer to Chief Xu, forming a situation of separation from General Fang and his elite soldiers.

General Fang took a deep breath, knowing that he couldn't continue to put pressure on these people, so he tried to slow down his tone and said: "Look around, we are already out of the opponent's attack range!"

When everyone turned their heads, they saw that after the turmoil, no more fireballs were fired from the direction of Xiyun City. Just as General Fang said, they were now out of the opponent's attack range.

"so what?"

Leader Xu yelled angrily: "Aren't you still planning to attack the city if you tell us to stay? If we want to attack the city, we have to go back and die. What's the difference!"

On the surface, leader Xu is thinking about everyone, but in fact, he is also turning his own little Jiujiu in his heart.

In the baptism of artillery fire just now, many of his own brothers were killed and injured, and his current strength has been greatly reduced. However, Chief Xu also saw that three of the leaders of the seven major forces had been buried under the fireball while fleeing for his life. If he used it for his own use, it might have been a blessing in disguise, which further strengthened his strength in the Forest of Poisonous Mist.

At this moment, he is acting like a representative of the Poisonous Mist Forest. He just wants to buy people's hearts.

With this thought in mind, if the general of that side wants to stop him, Chief Xu doesn't mind a scene of internal strife on the spot. After all, his side is the one with the larger number of people!

The two sides confronted each other for a while, and General Fang said angrily, "You have no way out now!"

"Escape back to the Forest of Poison Mist?"

"Have you ever thought about it, after this battle, how can the Qingyang Empire allow the Forest of Poison Mist to exist again?"

"Now we are grasshoppers tied to a rope. If we lose this battle, no one will be able to escape!"

Hearing this, Chief Xu snorted coldly, "You still want to win?"

"Why can't you win?"

General Fang gritted his teeth and said, "None of the scouts I sent out before came back, can't you figure out the key?"

"The opponent obviously didn't want us to know the situation of the other city gates, so they tried their best to ambush the scouts, but this just shows that except for the west city gate, the defense of the other two city gates is empty!"

"At this time, we have no burden, and we are riding lightly on fast horses. Right now, we can only raid other city gates with all our strength, so as to have a chance of survival!"

His analysis was not unreasonable, even though Chief Xu had made up his mind to lure many people to escape to the Forest of Poison Mist and become the Emperor of the Earth, he still hesitated at this moment.

At this moment, the soldier in charge of observing the movement of Xiyun City suddenly exclaimed: "Come... come, they have come out!"
