In the evening, in front of Zhu'an City, the blue smoke after the fire burned away had dissipated, and the burnt smell and bloody smell also faded slightly.

There was no movement in the enemy camp for a whole day, and I don’t know what was brewing.

General Ding Jiang was in a coma all day, and it was still in a state of circumstance. On the top of the city, two squadrons of soldiers responsible for the garrison were ready to face the enemy's attack at any time.

Outside the city, Kou Long was responsible for the defense of the left and right mountain ranges. He did not suffer too serious attacks last night. The enemy was only harassed and did not appear again after being repelled several times. During this process, Kou Long held down the soldiers lying in the ambush nearby and did not let them attack. The one responsible for repelling the enemy was the posts and simple positions they could see.

The two squadrons of soldiers led by Tu Xingping had already arrived at the simple wooden wall. They used one day to consolidate the city defense to ensure that there would be no problems when retreating. At the same time, they were also prepared. If the enemy appeared nearby, they would be hit by thunder.

Ren Zijin did not climb to the city wall in the battle last night. This was Ding Jiang's order. The two of them were responsible for defense, and the enemy's advancement was rapid and well-equipped. There would inevitably be a battle for the city wall. If the two generals appeared at the same time, they would be injured or killed at the same time. If the exchange was made in this way, it would ensure that there would always be someone commanding the defense above the city wall.

Ren Zijin and Ding Jiang cooperated for many years, and naturally he knew Ding Jiang's intention to arrange this. However, the battle was in a tragic night, but the order made him remained unmoved, which made him anxious.

After the battle, he went to see Ding Jiang as soon as possible. Seeing that he was pale and had countless wounds on his body, he felt even more depressed. Ye Guan and others knew about his plan. He had been using two thousand people to defend the city walls so that when the enemy attacked in full swing, he still had enough strength in his hands. In addition, such a battle would give the enemy an illusion, making it easy for them to judge the situation incorrectly. But that was the case, it could not offset Ren Zijin's anxiety and anger.

Not only did he have this feeling, but all the soldiers who had not yet climbed to the city wall would have this feeling in their hearts. They could not understand Ding Jiang's military orders, and only allowed two brigades to fight bloody battles on the city wall. Even if the battle reached a white-hot stage, there was no order to let them attack.

Last night, everyone was anxious when they heard the constant shouts of killing from above the city. The feeling of seeing their comrades fighting in front of him but being indifferent made everyone feel uncomfortable. This feeling suppressed all night, and Ren Zijin could only continue to patrol the garrison, try to appease all soldiers, and eliminate the negative impact of this emotion.

Things have two sides. If many soldiers have this feeling in their hearts, it will naturally have some impact on morale and make them somewhat confused. However, the soldiers of the Eastern Prince's Mansion who came to Zhu'an City with Ye Guan this time were all powerful soldiers in battle. Although they had emotions in their hearts, they absolutely followed the military orders. After the two brigades of the third batch climbed onto the city wall, each soldier had a fire in his heart. Looking at the dark battlefield under the city and countless enemy corpses, they were more angry and fighting.

Ren Zijin took over Ding Jiang's command, climbed to the top of the city, and inspected all defensive equipment, including the simple catapult temporarily arranged by Ding Jiang. After inspecting the catapult, Ren Zijin ordered several catapults to be reinforced again, so that they can play a key role in combat.

The walls of Zhu'an City are very wide. After several catapults are placed, the remaining space is enough to fight head-on with the enemy.

In addition to normal garrisoning, Ren Zijin also specially arranged several teams to protect the catapult. He knew that once the enemy attacked, the city tower would inevitably approach the city wall. His simple catapult had the ability to destroy the enemy's siege equipment and would be the enemy's first target.

At the same time, he arranged for the sergeants in the city to create the same size again and place the equipment under the city wall to prevent the enemy from attacking violently destroying the smuggling machine, and there will be supplements immediately.

Time passed quickly, and all this was prepared. The night was already shrouded, and the mottled moonlight covered the earth, making everything hazy.

No torches were lit on the city wall. Ren Zijin ordered the soldiers to light up the candlelights in the tower, and there would be no fire on the city wall. In this way, using the cover of the night, the enemy could not immediately see the defense situation at the top of the city.

For some reason, one day today, the enemy's large scatterer did not throw fireballs to attack, which may have expected that this attack would have limited damage to the defenders of Zhu'an City.

After several days of fierce battle, the city wall of Zhu'an City was attacked by a catapult fireball. A fine crack had already appeared. The crack spread again during the attack last night and was about to crack.

Neither Ding Jiang nor Ren Zijin could do anything about this. They did not have enough strength to rush out of the city to destroy the enemy's long-range catapults, and could only let the soldiers use the city wall to avoid the fireballs that were attacking from afar. Such a violent bombardment, if the city wall of Zhu'an City had not been watered by pig iron, they would have collapsed long ago.

If cracks appear in the city wall, if they are not repaired in time, and after being subjected to fierce attacks, cracks may appear. The cracks become larger and larger, and eventually the city wall will have gaps. Once the gap appears, the enemy will inevitably launch a fierce attack on the gap. At that time, the most critical moment of the battle.

The enemy must have a better understanding of Zhu'an City than our own. Whether it is the materials and equipment in the city or the city defense, they were personally arranged and constructed by Shen Tuyan. He knew how strong the city walls of Zhu'an City were and how long the materials in the city could last. This is also the reason why he dared to launch a rash attack with the intention of annihilation of this wave of troops from the Eastern Prince's Mansion.

As night comes, the air around it slowly becomes colder, not as hot as it is during the day.

Many soldiers stopped or leaned behind the battlements, and based on teams, they were scattered defenses, and the entire city wall was heavily guarded.

Few people speak, and everyone knows that the enemy does not attack during the whole day, and will definitely launch a more violent attack at night. The battle tonight will be very tragic.

Ren Zijin patrolled back and forth on the city wall, checking the fortifications, and did very carefully. He remembered the areas where the cracks in the city wall were relatively tight, and arranged more soldiers to defend themselves. He had informed in advance that if there were cracks in the city wall, avoid them immediately. If the enemy launches a fierce attack on the cracks, they can use the left and right cover to kill the enemy.

The damage to the city wall may be an opportunity for the enemy, but it is also an opportunity for our side to kill and injure the enemy in large numbers. The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and even if you make a precise plan, there may be any mistakes. This is the same for both sides.

No one spoke above the city wall. The coldness of the night enveloped everything. The pungent smell subsided slightly. Everyone no longer felt that the smell was unbearable, but gradually got used to it.

The city was extremely quiet, and the soldiers on standby were very silent, and only a few were talking softly and chatting about gossip.

Usually, soldiers in the East Prince's Mansion fought siege battles, and the Qitian Empire was always expanding. There were no enemies in the surrounding small countries, and there were few troops that could fight head-on with the East Prince's Mansion, let alone attacking the city. This city defense battle was the first time in a long time. Although they often trained and simulated siege battles, they did not really participate.

A fierce siege battle like now is a test for everyone, whether it is the new recruits outside the city or the veterans inside the city.

Ye Guan sat quietly in the house, not moving for a day, meditating and adjusting his breathing, waiting for his test that was about to come. He knew in his heart that this test would come, and he was the only one in the entire army who had the ability to resist.

The mysterious man in black robe, with strange means, involved the secrets from decades ago. All of this was like a fog that enveloped Ye Guan's heart. He vaguely felt that all these things seemed to be related to the mystery and cave he entered back then. The things happened too quickly that he had not figured out what was going on, and he was attacked and unconscious. After waking up, his body was eroded by that strange energy, which greatly reduced his combat power. He could not take the role of the Eastern King's guard, so he could only retreat behind the scenes and become the city lord.

He thought he would do this but lived a life. Even if he went to the army to fight for the enclave this time, he had apologized for his belief that he would die. Until he came into contact with the mysterious man in black robe, the mysterious power in his body disappeared strangely. From then on, what happened later developed in a direction that he could not control.

Enclave, Tianqing City, the mysterious man in black robe, the city lord Tian Shun, the formation arranged by Wufeng City, the mysterious formation on Zongqiu Mountain, and the strange cave at the foot of the mountain, these things cannot be clarified at once. No matter what Ye Guan thinks, things seem to be trapped in a whirlpool. The more he wants to figure it out, the more he finds it is difficult to figure it out. This feeling is crazy, but helpless.

Looking at the cold light entering the house through the doors and windows, Ye Guan sighed softly. He did not light the candle, and the house was shining with silver light, everything became hazy, just like his current mood, a cloud of fog.

He was not worried about the ongoing siege battle. The four generals brought this time were all famous generals in a hundred battles. Even if the current situation seemed critical, they would definitely have a way to solve it. What he had to do was wait. When the entire army had the opportunity to counterattack and retreat, the mysterious man in black robe would definitely appear. He didn't understand what the man was going to do when he was looking for him.

Ding Jiang was injured and fell asleep. Ye Guan knew it, but he didn't go to see it because he knew in his heart that with Ding Jiang's cultivation level, this injury was nothing at all, and he could be cured with a little care. He did not issue any more orders regarding the current city war. If the current momentum continues, within two days, the enemy will definitely discover the flaws in the defense of the Eastern Prince's Mansion and launch a large-scale attack. The eight brigades that have been hidden in the city will have a place to use their skills.

At the same time, the two ambushings from the left and right sides attacked together, surrounding the enemy in front of Zhu'an City, and major events can be accomplished.

"call……"

Just as Ye Guan was thinking a lot, a huge sound suddenly came from his ears, something huge was passing through the sky, and then a huge ball of flame appeared in the sky, lighting up the sky.

The enemy's attack began again.
Chapter completed!
