Chapter 883: Must Attack

This......

Pei Yu, Mu Han and others looked at each other again, and the puzzled expressions on their faces did not completely disappear. It was really that Wu Fan's explanation was too hard to accept.

It was acceptable that he was strong enough to avoid the guards at the door and take Wu Fan away, but it was too incredible that within a few hours, a patient who was previously seriously injured and unable to get out of bed was completely recovered.

Wu Fan's face was indifferent. He had already given the explanation. As for whether Pei Yu and others believed it or not, he didn't care so much. Moreover, his status was higher than Pei Yu and others. Even if Pei Yu and others had any doubts in their hearts, they would never dare to question him in person.

"What happened in my room? Someone broke into my room when I was not there?" Wu Fan asked.

Hearing this, Pei Yu quickly put aside his doubts and said to Wu Fan: "Reply to the Marshal, this is what happened."

Then, Pei Yu told Wu Fan what happened inside and outside Wu Fan's room last night.

Wu Fan said with a gloomy face: "It seems that those who ambushed me before are still not giving up."

"Yes." Pei Yu agreed: "If it weren't for your master taking you away, you would have been in danger last night."

Mu Han also nodded with fear and said: "Marshal, General Pei and I have discussed before. This mountain pass is not absolutely safe. The assassins have not been eliminated and may attack again at any time. For your safety, we have arranged some guards to follow you at any time. These guards are stronger than the previous soldiers. With them, you can be safer."

"Don't bother." Wu Fan waved his hand and said: "I was careless that time before, and the same thing will not happen again."

Wu Fan has many secrets. If someone follows him 24 hours a day, his secrets may be exposed, so he doesn't want to have a "personal bodyguard" around him.

"But Marshal..." Pei Yu was about to persuade him again, but Wu Fan said first: "This matter will be settled like this, no need to say more."

"Well, okay." Pei Yu said helplessly.

"Everyone has worked hard all night, let them all go back and rest, while there is still some time before dawn, take a rest quickly." Wu Fan said to Pei Yu.

In order to find Wu Fan, Pei Yu dispatched a large number of troops to search last night. These soldiers had just experienced a fierce battle with the soldiers of the Black Water Kingdom during the day yesterday, and they were not able to rest at night. Now they must be very tired. After dawn, the Black Water Kingdom's army is likely to attack again. If they don't have enough energy and physical strength to face it, then the fight will be very tiring and difficult.

"Yes, Marshal." Wu Fan's worry is also Pei Yu's worry. Before, because he was too anxious to find Wu Fan, Pei Yu didn't care so much. Now that Wu Fan appeared safely, Pei Yu was relieved and naturally prepared to let everyone go back and take the time to rest.

"Everyone listen to the order..."

Boom boom boom!

Just when Pei Yu was about to order all the soldiers to return to the camp to rest, a dull drum sound came from outside the city, and the heavy drum sound went straight to people's hearts.

The Black Water Kingdom's army attacked the city!

Wu Fan and Pei Yu and others looked at each other and immediately understood the meaning of the drum sound. Pei Yu shouted loudly: "Everyone rush to the top of the city!"

The space on the top of the city is limited. It is impossible for all the troops in Shanling Pass to go to the top of the city at the same time. However, those who cannot go to the top of the city also need to stand by as a reserve near the top of the city, ready to deal with danger at any time.

So, the idea of ​​resting is going to fall through.

The soldiers lined up and ran to the top of the city, and Wu Fan and others also went there.

On the top of the city, Wu Fan stood by the city wall, looking at the black team approaching outside the city, his face was a little solemn.

Just as he thought yesterday, the army of the Black Water Kingdom outside the city was ready to attack desperately. Now it is not even bright, and the army of the Black Water Kingdom has already started to attack the city impatiently. This shows the determination of the other party's commander and the urgency to capture Shanling Pass.

Others in the city might still wonder why the Black Water Army fought so hard and so urgently this time, but Wu Fan knew very well that a member of the royal family of Shuiyue Kingdom died in the camp, and the murderer had not been caught yet. The commander of the Black Water Army outside the city must be under great pressure. He needed to give an explanation to Shuiyue Kingdom, so the Shanling Pass must be broken, and it must be broken as soon as possible.

Squeak!

On the top of the city, a series of Zhuge crossbows have been loaded, and the arrows are aimed at the Black Water Army outside the city. The soldiers on the top of the city have solemn and serious faces.

"Ready!"

"Shoot!"

Swish!

One by one, cold arrows flew out from the top of the city and headed straight for the Black Water Army camp outside the city. The sharp arrows immediately shot down a group of people.

However, the drumbeats behind the Black Water soldiers did not disappear, and the pace of the siege soldiers was hardly affected at all. They continued to advance steadily, getting closer and closer to the wall of Shanling Pass.

Only Peng Chuan, who was behind the Black Water attacking square, saw a large number of his soldiers being shot dead or injured by the enemy's weapon, which he had never seen before. His mouth twitched and his eyes twitched.

That powerful crossbow that he had never heard of before was really a battlefield artifact, and its lethality was too great!

However, although he saw with his own eyes that many of his soldiers were killed or wounded under the attack of the enemy's powerful weapons, Peng Chuan did not order the troops to withdraw or slow down the attack, because he could not wait too long. He had little time left. He had to attack, even if it meant heavy losses. He had to bite the bullet.

It was impossible to keep Yelu Zhen's death a secret. Yelu Zhen's personal guard captain could not give him too much time. Once Shuiyue Kingdom knew that Yelu Zhen died tragically in the camp, they would definitely hold him accountable.

Moreover, when he went to war, the emperor of their Black Water Kingdom also asked him to attack and take down Shanling Pass. Their emperor would not allow him to stay here for too long.

In addition to these two reasons, Peng Chuan now has another reason to capture Shanling Pass as soon as possible, that is, the enemy's powerful crossbow that had never been seen before.

According to Peng Chuan's observation, the number of these powerful crossbows on the enemy's city walls was still small on the first day, but now they are increasing. It is obvious that at the beginning, there were not many such weapons prepared in Shanling Pass, but they have been rushing to make them in the past few days. With each day of delay, the enemy has more such weapons. After a long time, the enemy has enough such weapons in their hands, and it will be more difficult for them to break through Shanling Pass.

So, he can't wait and must attack by force.
