Chapter 988 The Beginning of War

The six main legions of Baiyun City have a total of nearly three million people. This is probably the largest military operation in Baiyun City's history... Of course, Yang Tian had mobilized more troops before entering the Waguo District. However, the main legions were only this number, but more of the more players' army.

The person who presided over the full attack on Yangzhou this time was Jia Xu, who was fully dispatched to all armies. Chen Gong also participated in this major operation, but he cooperated with Huang Zhong as the force of sharp swords to defeat the strong enemy. With Chen Gong's "neck-punching" skill, even the city with strong defense can open a hole. With the strong combat power of the Lieyang Legion, as long as he has a firm foothold on the city wall, he is afraid of being driven out by the enemy again? At least there is no such strong presence in Yangzhou.

The reason for such an arrangement is that Huang Zhong and others were able to return to Baiyun City in time. After all, he and Taishi Ci were sent to Chang'an City before, and now the battle of Chang'an City is over, so they hurried back. Although they failed in the battle of Chang'an City, this failure has nothing to do with the ability of Huang Zhong and others. In a war of millions, it is impossible to turn the tide with only two outstanding generals. What's more, this is still the inevitable direction of history. It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to move against the wheel of history. What's more, this failure was something they had already expected, and it can even be said that they were happy to see it.

For others, a war failure may be the ending of a different body and head, but this is not the case for Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci. At the moment the city was broken, Huang Zhong summoned his flying pet, then took Taishi Ci away from the place of right and wrong, and found the nearest city to teleport back to Baiyun City.

...

In the evening, Yang Tian stood on the head of Wuxian City, looking at the dense army below, with no head-on eyes, but his face was full of smiles and no tension at all. Perhaps his expression infected the army under his command, and all the soldiers were full of confidence in this battle.

Gao Shun and Sun Ce separated Yang Tian on both sides, and further out were Wuma and Zhou Yu. As for Pei Yuanshao and Sun Ce's generals, they were scattered to various parts of the city wall to organize defense. Zhou Cang led all the soldiers of the Greedy Wolf Legion to guard the inner city to prevent Xu Gong from suddenly leaving the city to attack.

Yang Tian did not allow the player's forces to join the defense line in the inner city. First, the player's strength is much weaker than the Greedy Wolf Legion, and may not be able to defend under Xu Gong's elite army. Second, players defending the city on the city wall can further stimulate their combat effectiveness, because the battle to defend the city is easier and can earn more experience and points.

"General Sunshine, when Chen Wen's army starts to attack the city, the troops from all levels of Yizhou can attack. This will inevitably bring great psychological pressure to Chen Wen." Zhou Yu advised Yang Tian on the side.

Yang Tian nodded. Yang Tian was not particularly concerned about when the general attack on Yangzhou began. Whether it was earlier or later, the impact on the ending was not very big, as long as it was not two or three days in the evening. However, this did not mean that Zhou Yu's suggestion was unreasonable. On the contrary, after being reminded by Zhou Yu, Yang Tian instantly understood the truth. Once Chen Wen knew that his army began to attack Yangzhou, it would inevitably have an impact on the soldiers of Yangzhou. Whether Chen Wen ordered the withdrawal of troops or continued to attack Wujun, it would be a blow to his morale, and it would naturally be more beneficial to the Baiyun City army defending the city.

However, compared with the huge rocks that fell next, those crossbow arrows can only be regarded as appetizers. When the huge rocks of millstones fall on their heads, they will definitely turn into a pile of meat paste as soon as they are smashed, and blood and flesh are splattered everywhere, and even fall into the mouths of some people who are calling. Fortunately, "The World" is different from reality. None of these people on the battlefield are recruits. As long as they can meet the standards for going to the battlefield, each person will kill no less than a thousand enemies. Although these are human-shaped monsters or beasts in the leveling camp, they are a great exercise for a person's psychology. Therefore, although these Yangzhou soldiers were afraid, they did not panic at all, but rushed towards the city wall more quickly. They knew very well that only by rushing through this area can they avoid the fate of being smashed into meat paste by the huge rock.

Soon, the soldiers rushed to a distance of more than 200 meters. At this time, the crossbows and catapults could no longer attack them, but they did not dare to take it lightly because they knew that they had entered the real death area. Although the area before looked terrifying, the mortality rate was very low.

"Arrowman! Covering the rain of arrows!" Gao Shun shouted loudly, then heard the thunder of war drums on the city wall. The archer who received the order did not hesitate at all. He raised his hands and shot the arrows in his hands at a certain inclination, without any aiming. At that moment, he saw dense arrows passing through the air at a graceful amplitude and landing in the crowd below.

When attacked by crossbows and catapults before, only very unlucky people would die, but now, under the rain of arrows, only those who are lucky can survive. In this round of attacks, at least 4,000 people died on the spot on the battlefield. This number is not low, equivalent to the attack that killed one thousandth of the entire Yangzhou army, which can make the Yangzhou generals feel hurt.

Of course, Yang Tian was also very clear that this situation could only achieve this effect in the first few rounds of the entire war. When the opponent's archers rushed forward or the melee troops were in close contact with the defending army, the archers on the top of the city could no longer shoot unscrupulously.

After a round of arrow rain, the surviving soldiers continued to charge forward with the siege ladder, but the distance of more than 200 meters was not short, and it was not possible to arrive in at least seven or eight seconds. Therefore, they were very unlucky to usher in the second round of arrow rain. Another group of Yangzhou soldiers fell to the ground like harvesting wheat. At this point, there were not many soldiers who could continue to jump around under the city.
