Chapter 400 Take the initiative to attack the incoming enemy
As the battle situation became more and more intense, the military situation was transmitted to Hengshan like snowflakes, and was sent to Lin Yifan's hands.

It is now March, and it has been a full month since the battle report came from Quyang Pass.After the Tianyun Army was frustrated in the first battle, they immediately rushed to manufacture a large number of simple catapults, and used long-range suppression to bombard Quyang Pass day and night.The Tianyun Army did not adopt close combat to attack the city, which made most of Zheng Han's arrangements lose their effect. He had to use dozens of closed stone catapults and bed crossbows to fight back.However, taking advantage of the proximity, the Tianyun Army produced a large number of long-range equipment such as catapults, and soon gained the upper hand.Every day under the bombardment of boulders, Quyang Pass was riddled with holes, and the defense equipment arranged on it was smashed to pieces.During this period, the Tianyun Army launched dozens of offensives, trying to take the opportunity to climb the wall after the saturation bombing and seize the opportunity.Fortunately, under the command of Zheng Han, the soldiers of the Hengshan Army launched a counterattack time after time, braving boulder arrows and crossbows, and drove the enemy off the wall.In such repeated contests, both sides suffered heavy losses.

Outside the Tianmen Pass, the Xijin werewolf finally arrived at Xizhou, taking over a large area of ​​land to the west of Baiyan City. An army of 30 gathered in Baiyan City and was attacking the city fiercely.Today's Baiyan City has only less than [-] defenders. Relying on the thick walls of the city and excellent equipment, they stand firm and wait for reinforcements.But how long it will last, no one knows.

Lin Yifan rubbed the center of his eyebrows tiredly, his eyes were already red.During this period of time, the tremendous pressure made him sleepless and tasteless, and he was thinking about the situation in Shazhou all day long.Now that the battle between the two sides has finally broken out, it depends on Hengshan's luck whether he can stop the two enemy troops.

Just when Lin Yifan was worried, a team escorting supplies finally arrived at Tianmen Pass.But the strange thing is that such an ordinary team attracted Hou Mingfeng, Shi Shouyi and other high-ranking officers who were stationed in Tianmen Pass to dispatch to welcome the team in person.

"The commander of the last general, Shenji Battalion, Wei Zhong pays homage to all the generals." A tall and thin general stepped out of the team and saluted everyone respectfully.

"Commander Wei, excuse me." Hou Mingfeng waved his hand impatiently, pointing at the team behind him suspiciously, "Commander Wei, is this what your lord said is the thing that destroys the enemy?"

Wei Zhong grinned at the corner of his mouth, nodded proudly and said: "That's right, this is a magical weapon that has been developed by the Qiaogong Bureau for many years, and it is called a cannon. Our Shenji Battalion has passed the test and can be used in actual combat. "

"Cannon? I wonder if you can open my eyes?" Hou Mingfeng's eyes lit up, and he asked quite expectantly.

"That's natural, general, my lord said that the artillery is our biggest trump card in Hengshan, so we can't show it to others so as not to leak it." Wei Zhong nodded, frowned and said, "I don't know if we can find a hiding place. Wait until you demonstrate it to the generals."

"No problem, Dewey, you immediately take people to the nearby valley to clean up the site, and we will be there later." Hou Mingfeng nodded happily, and ordered immediately.

Dewey immediately stood up to take the order, and then led a team of people to carry out the order.

After a long time, the minds of the people who came out of the valley seemed to be still in the memory of just now.Hou Mingfeng shook his head, and said to everyone with palpitations on his face: "I have this artillery in Hengshan, although tens of thousands of people are invulnerable."

Shi Shouyi also nodded fiercely, "With artillery, the city cannot be defended if attacked, and if the rules are followed, a million soldiers cannot attack. It is truly a magic weapon that has never been seen in the world."

Seeing this, Wei Zhong couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile, "Generals, you must never underestimate the enemy. Although the artillery is strong, our Hengshan system also has shortcomings. There are so many people, so my lord has no choice but to use this semi-finished product on the battlefield, and it must not be touched lightly when it is time to kill it with one blow."

When Hou Mingfeng heard the words, his complexion was slightly restrained, and he nodded solemnly, "So that's the case, I should have known."

Looking at the crowd with a wave of his hands, Hou Mingfeng continued: "Everyone, the 30 Western Golden Wolf army is currently besieging Baiyan City. Time is running out, and the [-] defenders will not last long. Now that the artifact sent by your lord has arrived, it is time for our entire army to dispatch it!" It's time."

"The last general is waiting for the general's order!" Hearing this, all the generals blushed and immediately called for a fight.

"Okay, everyone, go back immediately and prepare the army for battle. Tomorrow, our army will go out together to fight the enemy in Xizhou." Hou Mingfeng's face became serious, and he ordered in a deep voice.

Under Baiyan City, there was a dark crowd of people in a radius of more than ten miles, and they kept beating the reef-like city like a wave, one wave after another, constantly scouring, but they still failed to submerge this stubborn rock.

As the commander of the West Golden Wolf Army, facing such a small city, he couldn't attack it for a long time. He spent more than ten days here, and he couldn't hold back his face immediately, and desperately dispatched troops to attack.He couldn't understand at all, how could it be possible to withstand the impact of hundreds of thousands of troops with the 3 or [-] defenders in the city?Aren't the rumored Central Plains people all timid and weak sheep? Why do they have such perseverance and courage to resist an army dozens of times stronger?

In fact, even Sade, who joined the army in battle, was surprised by the combat power of the Hengshan Army. Originally, he thought that facing such a huge army, they would retreat to the Tianmen Pass and block the attack of the Khanate army there.Unexpectedly, the army has been delayed here for so long, and the strength of the Hengshan army has developed to such a strong level?
"Your Highness, this can't be done." At this time, Ngor next to him said with a worried expression on his face, "The longer we delay here, the more prepared the other party will be, and the more food and grass we will consume. Baiyan City, which is doomed to be abandoned, is a waste of time. It is better to bypass this city and rush straight to Tianmenguan. As long as there are tens of thousands of people left here, the safety of the food road in the rear can be guaranteed. This subordinate suggests that His Highness can ask the Great The prince suggested that you personally lead an army of [-] to go out and fight to the gate of Tianmen. If possible, you may be able to directly enter the pass. Even if you can't, as a forward, you can still make a lot of contribution in this battle. "

When Sade heard this, he couldn't help but nodded seriously. This is a wonderful move. Since it's wasting time here, it's better to go to Tianmenguan to try your luck.Anyway, even if he captures Baiyan City here, it will not do him any merit.But if he can win the Tianmen Pass, he will be able to make the first contribution of this Eastern Expedition, and his impression in Father Khan's heart will be much better.It's just, such an obvious grab for credit, will the eldest brother agree?
With apprehension, Sade advised Herder on this strategy, and earnestly asked himself to be a forward to open the way for the army.

Herder glanced at Sade with a gloomy face, cursing secretly in his heart. As expected, his third brother was not reconciled. First he went out with the army to gain military merits, but now he wants to take the lead and strive for more credits. Show your face.If the third younger brother is allowed to grab credit everywhere, as the commander-in-chief, wouldn't he be bleak in front of his father Khan?No, the third brother must not be allowed to grab any military merits. This Eastern Expedition can only be done by himself. Only by making great contributions can his position in front of his father Khan be more stable.

"Haha, third brother, how is this possible?" Herder smiled and patted Saad on the shoulder kindly, "There is a hundred thousand troops from the Hengshan Army gathered at Tianmen Pass, and their combat power cannot be underestimated. How can Big Brother let you go?" How about taking this risk? How about this, I will assign 20 of your troops to stay here to monitor the defenders of Baiyan City. I will lead an army of more than [-] to go out together to meet those Hengshan troops."

"Brother is the commander-in-chief of an army, how can he easily take risks?" Sade's face darkened, showing a worried look, "As a younger brother, I should charge forward instead of my brother, and share a little more for my brother."

You want to share my credit, right?Herder thought maliciously, but his face showed a determined look: "You don't need to say much, third brother, how can I let you take risks? You stay here, as long as you can keep an eye on these defenders, it's okay You did a great job."

"I...."

Sade was about to defend himself, but Herder had already driven away to order the army to set off.

Sade silently watched his leaving back, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitched slightly.Looking at the guard next to him with a slight flicker, the guard immediately understood and quietly disappeared from the army.
