Xiaolonger had already returned to the house with Xiaoqing to rest, and only Li Xiuyuan, Chu Feiyan and Huangfu Shenji were left in front of him.

"Can we defend it tomorrow in the battle?" Huangfu Shenji looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked solemnly.

Li Xiuyuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then looked at him and said, "If it were changed, the other party would only have 100,000 horses, and we would still have 180,000. Will you choose to end this battle?"

Huangfu Shenji was stunned, looked back at Chu Feiyan, and blurted out: "I definitely don't!"

Li Xiuyuan nodded and said, "Either will they!"

"So, no matter what the outcome tomorrow, there will be a hard battle the day after tomorrow?" Chu Feiyan said softly.

"Tomorrow night we will give up Black Yancheng. You will withdraw from the Decisive Pass overnight. Xiao Longer and I stayed behind and sang an empty city plan with them." Li Xiuyuan waved his hands and replied helplessly.

The room was quiet and silent.

After a while, Li Xiuyuan looked at the two and said, "No matter what, you two will go back to the military camp first to encourage the morale of the army, and on the other hand, be prepared to face the battle tomorrow."

"Do you want to go out of the city to fight?" Chu Feiyan felt very uncomfortable when he felt useless.

She was willing to fight against the enemy on the battlefield, nor was she willing to sit on the city tower and do nothing, and she needed protection from others.

"I will never leave the city! Wait for them to attack. My appetizer hasn't been served yet, what are you afraid of?" Li Xiuyuan replied coldly.

Thinking of the countless big pits that Li Xiuyuan dug in Qingfeng Valley, Chu Feiyan and Huangfu Shenji couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat. The two almost forgot about this matter. Is that a mass trap?

The two of them shook their heads and left with a satisfied smile. With the Grand Marshal here, they could leave with confidence.

......

Early in the morning, Chu Feng brought Wei Qing to Li Xiuyuan and asked how he would face it today.

Li Xiuyuan approached Wei Qing and whispered, and Wei Qing smiled and took the order away.

"You will defend the city with me today and let the soldiers keep a close eye on it." Li Xiuyuan said to Chu Feng.

Today is not a good weather. Layers of dark clouds cover Black Yancheng, and the streets are deserted. Xiaolonger and Xiaoqing rode on a horse and quickly ran towards the city tower, because Chu Ruoyu came back yesterday and told her that there was a big battle today.

The people in Heiyun City have evacuated, and there are no people on the streets except for the soldiers coming and going.

Just after the hour of Mao, Chu Wudi and others climbed the city tower, looked at Li Xiuyuan nervously and asked, "What's the situation?"

Li Xiuyuan pointed to the empty wasteland outside the city and smiled, "It's coming soon."

Bi Feiyan looked outside the city with a frown and said in a deep voice: "The army got up early in the morning to cook, and the soldiers are ready to fight."

Li Xiuyuan nodded, looked at Wei Qing and said, "Are you ready?"

Wei Qing clasped his fists and replied: "It was already arranged last night, just waiting for the senior brother to give the order."

Li Xiuyuan patted his shoulder and said, "What's the outcome today? It's all here to win or lose."

Chu Wudi looked at him and suddenly pointed outside the city and said, "They are here."

Tens of thousands of cavalry came over, wearing black armor, with aura of power, running on the wasteland like a black torrent. In a flash, they stopped two hundred feet away from Heiyan City.

The Iron Cavalry of the Silver Moon Kingdom, who came back, once again privately blacked Yancheng.

The military flag was flying and tilted slightly. Rows of black chariots were filled with black shield formations, and the back of the shield formation was reinforced with pine branches, as if they were specifically for dealing with the remnants in Heiyan City.

Behind the chariot are countless siege ladders and cedars cut from the mountains. The smart silver moon needs to use cedars to build bridges and force the moat to cross the moat.

It is not desolate outside the Heiyan City, which is already late in spring. The grass is covered with dense grass. Looking around, more than 100,000 iron cavalry rolling on the green grass like a torrent of steel, which is really a bit of a shame.

From the place where 180,000 cavalry arrayed to the moat, it was less than 200 feet away. This distance could only be reached by a charge.

But what is strange is that today's Iron Cavalry did not charge, but walked out from behind them, rows of soldiers holding shields and carrying swords.

In front is a heavy chariot shield array, behind is a cover made of cedar, and behind is a siege equipment and dense soldiers.

"They gave up their war horses and wanted to attack with infantry! Should they send cavalry?" Chu Wudi asked in a deep voice as he looked at the approaching Yinyue Kingdom army.

"No one is allowed to leave the city today!" Li Xiuyuan said coldly as he held an iron bow in his hand and looked at the dark grassland soldiers who were gradually approaching.

"Do I want to shoot an arrow over them?" Xiaoqing, who was standing behind Li Xiuyuan, asked anxiously.

The Grand Marshal did not issue an order, and no one dared to shoot an arrow first.

"What's the matter in a hurry? The show hasn't started yet? There will be an arrow when you shoot the arrow." Li Xiuyuan turned around and looked at the nervous crowd, and suddenly grinned.

Compared to digging a hole and burying people, who am I afraid of?

"I'll issue an order later, let your people shoot three rounds first, and then all the troops shoot three rounds again, and give them a surprise!" Di Ye looked at Chu Wudi standing beside him and said quietly.

This is a weird battle.

The siege did not issue a trumpet of charge, and the defenders did not ring the war drums for defense.

It's like a child playing house, waiting for the moment when he gets close to him.

Outside the Black Cloud City, the leisurely spring breeze burned her last moment of life, desperately raging on the wasteland...

The spring breeze on the wasteland is blowing vigorously.

The iron cavalry on the wasteland was moving forward in an orderly manner.

The defenders on the city wall were covered in sweat.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the army that was dark and slowly moving forward, and couldn't help but laugh softly, "This time, I'm going to disappoint you again."

Chu Feiyan and others hope that the battle will start soon, then defeat and then end.

Even the tens of thousands of soldiers guarding the city walls holding bows in front of the Silver Moon Iron Cavalry, they were unwilling to maintain such strange tranquility.

As if he could not notice people's eyes, Li Xiuyuan quietly looked outside Heiyan City, looking at the grass on the wasteland, the official roads in the fields, and the crowds moving on the grass.

There were no seedlings in front of Black Yancheng, only weeds and wild flowers. Since last winter, when I received the battle report from Li Xiuyuan, the city lord Feng Yun asked the people in the city to throw away the land outside the city and instead went to another place to open up land.

"Let me see how I burn you all." Li Xiuyuan whispered in a low voice.

Seeing that the defenders on the city wall did not respond, the army approaching the moat began to push the cedars forward. The two cedars tied together and crossed the moat ten feet wide.

The thick shield formation stood by the river, protecting the army behind him. Even if he wanted to cross the river, the shield formation and the soldiers would share life and death with each other and move forward.

"Do you want to launch an attack?" Chu Feiyan looked down at the dense iron cavalry wearing black armor, and could not help but sweat.

The shield formation on the moat protected the iron cavalry across the river, and there were heavy weapons for siege in the city being slowly transported.

Opposite the moat, the Yinyue Kingdom Iron Cavalry is setting up a catapult cart, preparing to throw stones to siege the city...

"We can't let them set up a chariot. Wei Qing, first order a new two-wheeled volley to destroy the chariot on the other side!" Li Xiuyuan shouted at the messenger.

"The command is to be in the Century Camp, two rounds of volleys, and eliminate the chariots on the other side!" The commander waving the red flag in his hand while passing the command!

"Chu Feng, look at you, three-wheeled volleys, don't let them slip away!" Li Xiuyuan shouted at Chu Feng beside him.

"Please ensure that the task is completed!" Chu Fengde ordered to leave.

"Woooo!" The heavy whimpered on the city wall, and tens of thousands of iron arrows headed to the other side of the moat.

Outside the Black Yancheng in late spring, there was another black rain of arrows.

The catapults that had not yet been set up dispersed under the powerful heavy shooting.

"Occurrence! Start an attack!" The cavalry, who had already crossed the river, roared.

More than 100,000 cavalry on the grassland slowly pressed forward, and the sound of war drums was shaking the earth.

"Beat the drum!" Li Xiuyuan roared coldly.

In an instant, a shocking war drum was beating on Heiyan City! It was earth-shaking.

Batches of iron cavalry stomped on cedars and rushed towards Heiyancheng. While rushing, they did not forget to hold the shield on their heads, guarding against the rain of arrows that would fall from their own way.

"Buzz! Buzz!!" There were a burst of strings, and tens of thousands of rockets poured onto the moat like a rain of arrows.

"Boom!" Amid the sound, fire clouds soaring into the sky rose in the moat!

Liu Changqing, a pioneer on the military horse, shouted desperately: "They set fire!"

Ye Wubei, who was rushing forward on a war horse, was stunned and murmured to himself: "That guy actually set fire on the water!"

Princess Qingyue, who was commanding the army to rush forward, cursed: "You're shameless, you actually set fire!"

In just a moment, in the moat, thousands of barrels of turbulent oil poured by Wei Qing, Chu Feng and others were ignited by tens of thousands of rockets in the moat. The huge fire dragon ignited the entire moat with lightning speed.

The pine branches that were pushed in last night, plus the pine branches that were piled up on the grassland iron cavalry to build bridges and cross the river today, burning fiercely, and the fire became more and more fierce, and there was no possibility of extinguishing them.

"Transfer the order, use rockets to destroy the catapult on the other side!" Li Xiuyuan roared quietly.

The messenger quickly waved the red flag.

During the storm, there was also a fire burning slowly on the other side.

"You can do whatever you want, let me rest for a while." Li Xiuyuanwan looked at Xiaoqing and Xiaolonger and smiled faintly.

Xiaoqing and Xiaolonger carried bows and arrows and went up to the city wall...

Li Xiuyuan moved three chairs, handed one to Chu Feiyan and one to Huangfu Shenji, and smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, we won't charge today!"

Chu Feiyan pulled the chair and sat down, clenched his fists and smiled, "Today, they never expected to be hit again, right?"

Li Xiuyuan looked back at her and said quietly: "We are at home here, so we take the initiative. But if we are too weak, even if we take the initiative, it will not play any role."

Chu Feiyan nodded gently, expressing his agreement with his statement.
To be continued...
