Chapter 3893: City melee

"What sound?" In the darkness of dawn, Cao Ren, who was standing at the head of the city, heard the rumbling sound and immediately turned to ask Le Jin.

When Le Jin heard this rumbling sound, his first reaction was that Oswen could not bear to use the Sun Rider to attack the city, but in the next moment, Cao Ren and Le Jin denied this idea. Oswen was not a fool, how could it be so? do.

Not to mention the darkest time before dawn, when the Sun Knight Legion was at its weakest, and just the stupid behavior of cavalry siege to the city, there would be no normal generals to do it.

"Could it be?" Le Jin asked, turning his head to look at Cao Ren.

"It should be a bank break!" Cao Ren nodded, "Let everyone go up the city wall and prepare to survive the last wave. Originally, I thought Oswen would have the patience to smash with us here, and then use the flood to fight the lord. Thinking of this time, the other party used it directly."

Cao Ren, Le Jin and others had prevented Guishuang from bursting the embankment from the very beginning. In fact, the biggest hidden danger of this battle was that Osven burst the embankment and flooded the Cao Jun fortress downstream.

Obviously, after three days and nights of violent attacks, Oswen determined that the Han army had also entered a period of fatigue, and Guodi digs his own simple dam on the upper reaches of the Helmand River.

The turbulent flood hit the fortress where Cao Ren was stationed. Even if there was insufficient water, the fortress built on the upper reaches of the Helmand River was greatly affected, and this was the opportunity Osven was waiting for. The reason Oswen must take advantage of the dawn.

After all, Cao Ren and others are not fools. If Oswen suddenly retreats in broad daylight, they will more or less take precautions, but now after three days of violent attack, even if Cao Ren is adjusting and breathing, there will be some negligence.

These Xu's negligence and sluggishness were the opportunities Oswen wanted to fight for. The turbulent flood rushed into the fortress where Cao Ren was stationed.

It’s a pity that this fortress was prepared for water and fire attacks as early as Xun Yu’s construction. In addition, the Helmand River’s runoff was insufficient. These effects were not enough to disrupt Cao Ren’s fighting spirit. This fortress was completely destroyed, and it was almost level.

However, Cao Ren knew very well that since Oswen had prepared the big water, the other party must have prepared a ship. This was the biggest problem.

Not to mention the Sun Riders, the scimitar assaulters led by Salman are actually not weaker than Le Jin and Cao Ren’s headquarters. The reason why they have been unable to win the fortress before is mostly due to the inability to rush to the wall on a large scale. The flood came violently, and it was only a matter of time before Oswen and others boarded the city wall by boat. Who caused most of the river channel on this side of the valley to be blocked.

When the flood is released later, Oswen may not be able to climb the city wall by the flood, but now, the flood is only one or two meters lower than the city wall.

If it were not for the influence of the mountains, the warm and humid Indian Ocean would not be able to move northward, and the rocks on the north side would not have those century-old giant trees. Otherwise, the giant trees would be felled and thrown into the flood and attacked the city by the potential of gravity. The Han Fortress would be impossible anyway. Hold on.

But if huge trees can grow here for a hundred years, the ecological environment will not be so terrible, and it doesn't need to be called an imperial cemetery.

"Let Mancheng not take any action first, you and I are prepared, whether you can stand by the fortress depends on this wave." Cao Ren solemnly ordered to Le Jin.

After this wave, Oswen will not be able to continue to attack this fortress, because it will take several days for the flood to recede, and after it recedes, the remaining silt cannot be cleaned up in a short time, which leads to Guishuang at least ten times. There is no way to attack the fortress.

For Cao Ren, a famous defender of the city, after the most difficult period has passed, he has another ten-day rest period. The advantages that Oswen has accumulated before hard work are gone, which is equivalent to starting from scratch. Down is very important.

Le Jin also understood this, so he nodded and gathered all the soldiers under his command. At this time, the turbulent flood was blocked by the fortress, and it had obviously silted up, and the following tide was getting bigger and bigger, waiting for the sunrise. When it appeared, the flood slapped on the city wall, and it could even splash on the top of the city.

At this time, sewage was almost flowing across the fortress. Even if Li Dian continuously organized soldiers to block the city gates, it was inevitable that sewage infiltrated in the end. When the sun appeared in the east, the flood within the fortress had already submerged the thigh position.

Fortunately, Cao Ren ordered a large number of fried noodles early. There are also large water urns on the wall and in the upper part of the city. After all, when the city was built, it was prepared to deal with floods, and these preparations are now used.

When the water potential slowed down slightly, roughly one meter away from the city head, Oswen and others relied on the ships and vehicles that had been prepared and appeared upstream.

This time is the time Oswen has calculated. After all, he also knows that it seems a little unrealistic that the flood of the Helmand River will directly destroy the fortress of the Han Dynasty, but he does not need to be destroyed, he only needs to be able to rush to the city. ,enough.

"Cao Ren, surrender!" Salman's evaluation of Cao Ren is not low, because he knows very well that if he wants to win this city without relying on the flood, he really has to polish it slowly, and even if it is so polished, he may not be able to get it. Next, thinking about this, Salman couldn't help but sigh. There are so many talents in the Han family, even if it is an unknown person, they have such ability.

Cao Ren looked at Salman from a distance, and was ready to fight with all his strength. He didn't want the other party to say such funny things, and couldn't help showing mockery.

"Surrender?" Cao Ren looked at Salman mockingly, "Are you worthy?"

"You can't stop it. Your craftsmanship in defending the city is indeed good, but when we rush up, you can't stop it. Not only you can't stop it, but the soldiers behind you can't stop it." Salman said seriously. , "And your grain and grass were also destroyed by the flood. After fighting with you so many times, we know very well that your grain silos are generally underground."

Because he was still upstream, it would take some time for Salman to come over, so he directly greeted Cao Ren from a distance in the valley, and there was no lack of tactics in his words.

"Hahaha!" Cao Ren laughed. My gang had been frying the flour for three days, and I wanted to see who couldn't hold it first.

"Stubborn!" Salman said with a sneer.

"Let the arrows!" Cao Ren coldly ordered, pretending to be anything, just do it, you can take it if you can hit it, if you can't hit it, it's useless!

A dense rain of arrows covered the opposite side. The Han army and Guishuang simultaneously launched their own long-range suppression capabilities. At the same time, Guishuang’s boat flew like an arrow from the string towards the fortress of the Han army, which had been slow before. Moving fast, just deliberately rowing in the opposite direction, but now going down the water, rowing with all strength, the speed suddenly burst.

The super high quality even made the first half of the walker directly over the water and flew toward the fortress. A group of eighteen people, almost like a canoe, rushed over on a large scale. They didn't mean to stop the ship when they were about to hit the city wall.

Cao Ren was stunned by this gangster-like behavior. Are these lunatics really afraid of death? The fortress is so wide that if it hits the head of the city, throws the members on the walkway out, flies directly over the city wall, and falls, it would not be a joke to die on the spot.

In fact, it is not that they are not afraid of death, but that the soldiers on Beigui's side, even the carefully selected boatmen, cannot stop the ship at such a high speed.

To be precise, after using Oswen’s flood, he realized that he had actually capsized, because most of the people in the mountains of Beigui have never seen the flood. They have never rowed a boat and boarded the boat. I was a little confused at the time.

If it weren't for a group of key soldiers brought by Oswen from the south, Oswen would find that he had bought his opponent more than ten days if he continued with this strategy.

From this point of view, Oswen is indeed a little lacking in strategy. It feels too heavy to ignore the head and the tail. Salman actually did not think of this problem. The reason why his soldiers looked stupid this time. It's because even the so-called scimitar assaulter who has played with the water is stupefied after getting on the walk and hurricaneously.

This is also the reason why more than a dozen boats crashed directly into the city wall without any stopping behavior, and more than a hundred people flew up to the top of the city from the boat, and even flew over the city wall.

After all, the speed can reach a very ridiculous level when the boat is smooth. As an ordinary Beigui soldier, he doesn't have the experience of being soaked out of the water by the Jiangdong soldier, and he doesn't know how to exert his strength on the boat.

The boat did not capsize, more because the boaters were all experienced southerners...

This scene was very exciting. In Salman's opinion, it was an operational error. But in the Han army's eyes, this group of people was ruthless and decided to fight quickly. So after the scimitar assaulter flew from the walk to the wall, Han The battle between the army and Guishuang started directly.

Compared with the previous method of relying on ladders and flying bridges, which can only rush up to a few or even dozens of people at a time, this time Guishuang went up to hundreds of soldiers in one breath, and then he was constantly active. The soldier leaned on the walker and charged up.

Of course, there is no lack of Beigui elites who have a foot in the air, people fall into the water, and they are gone. After all, the people here are the same as the current inland people in the Han Dynasty. Most of them can't swim, unless they are It is close to a big river, or has a relatively large lake in the living area.

But even so, the pressure on the Han army surged for a while. After all, Salman’s scimitar assaultman was stronger, and Salman’s legion itself was suitable for breaking through the battle line. The heavy scimitar could cut directly with a single stroke. With a pale arc blade, this kind of near-range attack is unavoidable even for the Han army.

Previously it could be easily suppressed, more because the opponent had fewer manpower and could use long spears for short- and medium-range suppression, but now the soldiers from Beigui continue to rush up, the Han army's front is obviously embarrassed, and the city wall is attacked and defensive. The biggest problem in the war is that there is too little room for transfer, which is easy to occur, and there is no way to retreat if you step back a few steps.

So much so that in the face of such a brutal slashing offensive, Cao Ren and Le Jin’s subordinates were unavoidably embarrassed. After all, the group of soldiers who hit the city wall directly flew through the city wall and fell into the city at this time. Charged up and tried to attack the Han room together.

"Keep on rushing, don't be afraid, fly over from the top of the city, there is water four feet deep inside, you can't fall to death." Beigui sergeant, covered in water, rushed up and shouted at his comrade-in-arms.

Because of the flood penetration, the water in the city that was only thigh deep before, is now about one meter two or three. This water depth is enough to make most of the soldiers fall off the city wall, and then choke a few saliva and climb up to continue. hit.

"Not good!" Cao Ren's face was pale. He had no idea that Guishuang's previous behavior would have such a deep calculation. He immediately did not dare to have the slightest reservation, and directly opened his legion talent, only to see the brick cracks on the wall. Layers of golden luster quickly appeared, covering all Cao Ren's subordinates.

"Responding to the battle!" Hard hitting will only suffer, especially when Guishuang madly hits the wall. People continue to fly into the city, then get up from the water in the inner city, quickly rush to the wall, and flanking the Han army. Cao Ren did not dare to delay.

The pale golden glow appeared on the soldiers of the Han sergeant like a barrier. There was no other special effect. It was pure defensive power, a manifestation of the defensive ability of the city wall, and a manifestation of the talent of Cao Ren's army.

The pale arc cut on the pale golden translucent glow, bringing up a piece of fine sand, but it did not directly hurt the soldiers of the Han army as before, and the scratches were even worse. , Is constantly recovering.

This is Cao Ren’s army talent. It can only be used near the city. Its ability is also very reliable. It is a pure defense, but it is different from other defenses that are destroyed if they are blown. This thing is cut off as long as the wall is not broken. , It can recover on its own, to a certain extent, it can be regarded as a kind of thing that is close to ideal defense.

By the way, the defense of this thing is actually quite strong, roughly equivalent to the defense brought by the stone used to build the city, and it is resistant to all types of blows. The only drawback is that the farther away from the city, the stronger it is. The smaller.

In the past, because of the situation in the Han room, they were all going out to beat people, resulting in no basis for Cao Ren's talent to be used at all. This is the first time that Cao Ren's talent is used officially.

As the defensive strength of the building stone, the ability to resist slashing is not very strong, but the thickness of the building stone is often longer than the weapon itself.

In this way, the performance of this legion’s talent embodied in Cao Ren’s legion became. Salman’s scimitar assaulter slashed it over, and the arc cut out a lot of golden debris, and then the force dissipated and ended, leaving behind one. The golden light wall gradually restored.

Cao Ren is actually not afraid of sharp attacks on the city wall. Unless it is an extraordinary level, there is nothing to do. An ordinary level of sharp attack can only cut through the standard stone for building this city wall. The problem can be solved by attack speed.

This is why Cao Ren generally did not wear a shield guard later, because his talent itself is very close to the situation of a shield guard, and sharp attacks can be withstood by himself, while his talent for heavy weapons attacks is just as strong as the shield guard. It would suffer a loss, so afterwards Cao Ren felt that the army he most should bring was a light infantry with high attack speed and high damage.

To put it simply, Cao Ren wanted to lead the sharp, but then found out that when the sharp shot, he directly penetrated his legion talent from the inside...

That's right, the second shortcoming of Cao Ren's talent is that the talent itself is equivalent to the actual fortification stone. If it is shot from the inside, it will also be blocked. This causes Cao Ren to use the more normal legion, while parrying and dying. knock.

However, Cao Ren has a very clear position on himself. He is a general defending the city, so he will be dead. If he can't really fight, he will line up, so that the opponent can't take the city and be forced to give up, even if it is ugly to be beaten. , But so what!

Le Jin also bloomed his legion talent. After so many years of adjustments, and the influence of the immortal cut the way, Le Jin can be regarded as able to use his legion talent to interfere with reality and let the soldiers feel their own minds.

Although there is no way to display exceptional abilities like Guan Yu, but at a normal level, it is enough for Le Jinjun to quickly display a fairly high combat effectiveness.

"General Zixiao, you guard the rear, I will fight back!" Le Jin shouted at Cao Ren, long-term defense will lose, and Le Jin itself is not good at defending, so he boarded the city wall on a large scale in the Beigui Army. After that, directly choose to bloom the talent of the Legion, and die with Salman!

The light blue luster blooms directly from Le Jin’s body, and all of his subordinates feel Le Jin’s beliefs. The interference of will is directly displayed on the individual. Even after the change of heaven, the difficulty of will interfere with reality is greatly increased, but Le The talent of Jin's Legion is still pure, which means that Le Jin can still interfere with reality!

"Dead!" Le Jin led his guards with a gun and rushed towards Salman. At the same time, Salman didn't dare to have the slightest reservation anymore and expanded his mental image in an all-round way.

Originally cut from the scimitar, it could only last for a few tenths of a second. It was thrown from the blade, and it lasted for more than one second. This little time gap directly caused the scimitar assaulter to attack. The range, and attack intensity increased explosively.

This is the mental image that Salman has painstakingly developed over the past ten years under the guidance of Mahind. The intensity of this mental image is not very high, but Salman has devoted almost all the power of the mental image to continuity. .

The continuation of the blade light, the continuation of the wind cutting, the continuation of the air cutting, and the continuation of very, very important muscle strength. Although Salman wanted to extend his life, he finally found that his mental image could be developed, but In that mere one second, even the last words were not enough to explain.

So in the end, Salman's mental image focused all his power on the continuation of his own various slashing special effects, for example, this sharp cutting that extends like a knife!
