For this battle, Zhang Yisheng himself is obviously very useful. At this moment, he is full of high spirits, "The melee troops maintain a defensive formation and advance towards the enemy city gate! The archer troops attack and cover from a distance!"

Outside the Tiebi Tribe, the invaders' troops had already begun to attack the city. The range of the enemy archers was unexpectedly far, and the arrows flew directly across the high ancient city wall of the Tiebi Tribe. There was a panic in the entire army after that, and the morale of the team was also hit at this moment.

Seeing this, Zhao Pan hurriedly activated the 'moral booster' skill, forcibly pulled the fallen morale back, and at the same time gave an order, "All back ten steps! The shield and axe squad maintains a defensive formation, pay attention to the arrows flying overhead, Protect the slingers! All slingers are ready to attack!!"

At this time, the thoughts in Zhao Pan's mind were very clear. The arrows of the archer troops of the other side were able to fly through the ancient city wall and shoot in, which means that their position at this time must be not far from their tribal camp, and they are definitely standing on a high ground. location!

Having been the general defender of the Tiebi Tribe for several months, Zhao Pan has already figured out the terrain of this entire area, and there is only one piece of highland closest to their Tiebi Tribe!

"All slingers are ready to throw stone bombs, and the attack angle is shifted [-] degrees to the right! Let it go!!"

1Chapter 17, turn to fire

Accompanied by a series of dense whistling, a whole piece of stone bullets flew directly from behind the ancient city wall of the Tiebi Tribe and attacked the archer troops located on the high ground outside the city.

"Grass! It's actually a slinger?" Zhang Yisheng was shocked, but he was not unprepared. After all, he was also an archer by profession, so he would definitely consider the safety of the archer unit seriously and leave a special team. The shield-wielding melee units are responsible for the safety of the archer troops in the rear.

Now that the enemy's long-range attack is coming, he doesn't need to say anything at all. The shield-holding troops responsible for protecting them are already raising their shields for defense at the first time.

The heavy stone bullets kept hitting the shield, and the force of the impact transmitted through the shield made the soldiers holding the shield feel uncomfortable for a while, "Boss, the other side's slinger's attack is a bit powerful. Soon!"

Hearing the report from the commander of the shield-bearing troops, Zhang Yisheng's face sank, and then he decisively ordered, "The siege troops in front continue to advance, and the archers and shield-bearing troops retreat thirty steps!"

The troops under his command moved quickly under his order, Zhang Yisheng retreated, but couldn't help but muttered in his heart, "Damn! What the hell? Since this Luo Ji can build the ancient city wall, it means that he is also an old man. Player, why are you still using slingers?"

But in any case, the siege battle has already started, so there is no reason to be counseled. The archer is his specially strengthened unit, coupled with his silver-level 'Archer Proficient' skill, even if he retreats [-] steps, the range will be reduced. Influence power, but he can still threaten the defense forces behind the ancient city wall of the other side, and compared to the other side, the threat posed to him by the slingers of the other side is greatly reduced.

"Archer troops, keep shooting arrows!"

"Commander, the opponent's archers retreated!" The sentry huddled behind the guardrail of the sentry tower carefully revealed a pair of eyes. After taking a look at the situation outside the ancient city wall, he quickly reported to Zhao Pan below. .

"How far back did you go?"

"About twenty steps! The subordinates can't be sure!" The undulating terrain in the hilly area was originally unfavorable for visual distance measurement. In addition, the arrows were flying around, so he didn't dare to look closely at all, and could only say made a rough judgment.

When Zhao Pan heard this, his brows were obviously wrinkled. Although the sentinel himself said it was not certain, but after the invaders retreated for a distance, the arrows of the archers could still attack them now. At this position, this is enough to explain a lot of problems. The range of the opponent's archer troops is larger than he expected!

After thinking about this, Zhao Pan asked decisively again, "What about the opponent's siege troops? Have the siege troops retreated?"

The sentry saw the opportunity and glanced out again. "No! The siege troops are still pushing the siege vehicles forward!"

Hearing this, Zhao Pan waved his hand decisively, "The shield and axe troops are responsible for blocking the arrows at the top of the head. The stone slingers advance ten steps, the attack angle is shifted to the left by forty degrees, and all the stone bombs are ready to be thrown! Turn the fire! Enemy siege troops, let it go!!"

Most of the slingers Luo Ji sent to the Tiebi tribe to garrison were veterans with rich combat experience. They had already been extremely proficient in the use of slings, and they were even more adept at controlling the angle of attack. With Iwon's order, the wildly thrown stone bullets immediately launched a powerful suppression attack on the advancing enemy siege force!

"Turn the fire? And it's a bit powerful." The reason why the slingers were eliminated, in addition to the flaws in their mobility, is also one of the reasons for their own attack accuracy. The opponent's slingers can actually attack the target. The conversion was done so quickly and accurately. To be honest, Zhang Yisheng was a little frightened, and then he gritted his teeth, "The archer troop advanced [-] paces, forced back the opposing slinger troop, and covered the advance of the siege troop!"

Now that the opponent has turned the fire, he decisively returned to the best output position confirmed before, but unexpectedly his rear troops have just moved, and have not had time to climb up the high ground as a slinger on the defensive side. The troops turned fire again, and a round of stone bullets smashed directly into the high ground!

Although the stone bullet that almost flew in the face was finally blocked by the shield-wielding troops in front, it still caused a look of surprise on his face, and then he swears on the spot, "Grass! The reaction is so fast? Is it someone? Are you staring at my actions?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yisheng decisively activated his skills, "Hawkeye!"

The dark pupils quickly contracted and enlarged, and the vision in front of him instantly became clear, and then he found the figure shrinking behind the guardrail of the sentry tower and peeking at the battlefield.

There is no dawdling, the duration of the eagle eye is limited, I saw Zhang Yisheng's movements are fast and violent, between the bow and the arrow, an arrow is fired!The sentinel who was still huddled behind the guardrail of the sentry tower had no time to react. At that time, only a muffled sound of 'du' was heard!About two fingers away, the flying arrow was nailed to the wooden board on the guardrail of the sentry tower!But it still made the sentry break out in a cold sweat, "Okay, it's dangerous, I almost got hit by an arrow..."

At the same time, Zhang Yisheng on the other end gave a displeased 'tsk', which was different from when the first two sentries stood guard on the sentry tower without any defense. Behind the guardrail, in the face of such a situation, the difficulty of trying to kill the opponent with one arrow is obviously skyrocketing.

In desperation, the entire battle situation gradually evolved into a tug of war. Once the archer troops advance, the opponent's slinger troops will directly suppress a round of long-range attacks until they retreat, and once they retreat, the opponent's The slingers immediately adjusted their positions and turned to the siege troops.

At this moment, Zhang Yisheng already realized that he was kicking the iron plate, but he would not be persuaded to retreat directly. He raised his head and glanced at the sky. When he first invaded, it was already afternoon. The advantages of the long-range arms, covering the siege troops to advance in one breath, rushed to break the city gate before dark, but did not expect the firepower of the opponent's slinger troops to be unexpectedly fierce, forcibly suppressed him, and the siege troops also It was extremely difficult to advance, and if he continued to fight, once it got dark, it would be bad for him...

Thinking of this, Zhang Yisheng waved his hand and decisively issued the order to withdraw the troops. Now, he is not in a hurry. The firepower of the opponent's slingers is indeed strong enough, but according to the attack frequency, no amount of stone bullets can withstand it. That consumption, up to three rounds of siege warfare, this city gate will be broken!

Chapter 148: Strategy

As a general defender of the city, Zhao Pan couldn't possibly not notice the problem of the consumption of stone bullets, but the situation at the time was helpless. Once the attack frequency was weakened, the opponent would catch the opportunity and push forward in one breath. The melee troops on the tribe's side are not strong, and once the opponent advances outside the city gate, they will be in danger.

"How many stone bullets are left?"

"The people below have just finished counting, and there is still 320 stone bullets left in the warehouse." Zhou Tao, who had just walked in at this time, replied solemnly. Although he is not as good as Zhao Pan in terms of fighting, he also knows that 320 stone bullets The number of them is really not optimistic. After all, twenty stone slingers will consume twenty stone bullets in a round of attack. As the defenders, their consumption of stone bullets is too high!But at this juncture, it is impossible for them to open the city gate to collect the thrown stone bombs...

Thinking of this, Zhou Tao couldn't help but speak again, "I will let the mining team in the tribe work overnight to make up for the loss."

"Well, I will trouble you about this." Zhao Pan nodded, but his expression was not optimistic. Although the cost of stone bullets is very low, with the development of the tribe, the requirements of the Jingjing tribe for stone bullets have also changed. The improvement is not that a random stone can be used as a stone bomb on the roadside, because with those stones of different sizes and even strange shapes, it is difficult for the slingers to grasp the accuracy of their attacks. In order to avoid this, they are now The stone bullets used are actually carefully polished.

"Don't put on a bitter face, be optimistic, at least we repelled those outsiders today, didn't we?" Liu Zheng, who was sitting on the side, tried to console Zhao Pan a few words, however, he was not good at doing this kind of thing. For him, the effect is obviously not good.

I saw Zhao Pan shook his head, and then said in a firm tone, "Today's round of siege, the leader of the outsiders wisely retreated before the casualties of their own soldiers, he was consuming us. The number of stone bullets, after the leader realizes that the attack target of the outsiders is our Iron Wall Tribe, even if he sends reinforcements, it will take three days at the earliest. That is to say, if the frequency of the opponent's attack is high enough, we have to face at least two Three rounds of siege battle, and before that, once the stone bullets are exhausted, we are equivalent to losing."

"Could it be that you think too much?" Liu Zheng didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhao Pan didn't speak again, just shook his head...

This time, Liu Zheng couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and then a flash of inspiration, "How about we attack at night! How about we attack them in the dark?!"

Hearing this, Zhao Pan didn't even lift his head, his eyes kept staring at the map laid out in front of him, and then he pointed to a location not far from the Tiebi Tribe on the map, "If I guess right , Those outsiders will camp near this area tonight, so they can keep an eye on our side anytime, anywhere, and as soon as our city gate opens, they will be able to respond as soon as possible..."

Before the words were finished, a soldier in charge of reporting the letter walked in with a dignified expression, "Report to the commander! The troops of the outsiders have camped in the hilly area outside our tribe!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Liu Zheng couldn't hold back for a while, and made a noise, which made the soldier who came to report the letter a little strange.

However, before he could be surprised for a while, Zhao Pan pushed the map in front of him forward, "What about the specific location?"

Along with this move, Liu Zheng's eyes were also aimed at the past, as if he did not believe in evil, and then he saw the soldier's hand pointing to the area Zhao Pan had just pointed to, Liu Zheng Zheng's expression was resolutely life-threatening.

Ignoring the stunned Liu Zheng, Zhao Pan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Ask the sentry in charge of the guard to take turns watching over there. You can't relax after dark. Okay, let's go."

"Uh, what should we do now?" Facing the situation in front of him that was completely predicted by Zhao Pan, thinking of his previous optimism, Liu Zheng's old face couldn't help but turn a little red.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhao Pan's answer made him stunned again, "What you just said reminded me, we attacked at night!"

"what?"

"We attacked at night!" Zhao Pan repeated the last four words with a serious look, looking at Liu Zheng with a dazed expression.

However, after he finished speaking, he saw Liu Zheng waving his hands again and again, "No, no, I heard it, but, but didn't you just say that a night attack wouldn't work? The other party's current position, as soon as the city gate on our side opened, they immediately You can perceive it, how can you attack at night in this situation?”

"Can hit."

"..."

As the night grew darker, a sharp whistle sounded outside the enemy camp in the hilly area, breaking the tranquility of the night. Zhang Yisheng, who was sleeping soundly in the camp at the time, suddenly woke up, "Enemy attack?!"

Outside the camp, there was a commotion, and the whistle, which was suspected to be the signal of the enemy's attack, obviously woke everyone in the camp.

Before he could think about it, Zhang Yisheng picked up the longbow in his hand, walked out of the camp, looked at the slightly flustered soldiers in the camp, and shouted, "Everyone, don't panic! The archers retreated to the back. , the melee troops form a formation to meet the enemy!"

Zhang Yisheng's commander level is obviously not low. As soon as he opened his mouth, the soldiers who were still flustered seemed to have found their backbone. In a few breaths, they quickly formed a formation to meet the enemy and rushed out of the camp, and then watched Zhang Yisheng was dumbfounded at the iron wall tribe with the gates closed in the distance.

Grass!What about the enemy attack?Aside from the two guards on the sentry platform, the Tiebi Tribe on the opposite side can't even see a figure!He rubbed his forehead vigorously. He originally wanted to shout "Which mental retardation can yell at the enemy?", but in the end he didn't shout out that sentence, because he seemed to have shouted it himself...

"Leader, then we now..."

"The people on the night vigil continue to stare, and the others go back to sleep!" Zhang Yisheng, who had already realized that he was being tricked, almost squeezed the sentence out of his teeth.

When he returned to his tent, he was too lazy to take off the leather armor on his body. Zhang Yisheng, who was sleepy, fell asleep. However, seeing that he was about to fall asleep, another sharp whistle sounded from outside the camp.

Facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, Zhang Yisheng slammed his fist on the ground, and then rushed out of the tent with a roar, "Grass! This is not over, is it?!"

Zhang Yisheng, who fluttered again, was also on fire. This time, he waved his hand, "Search for me! Find that bitch for me!!"

Under Zhang Yisheng's order, the soldiers also searched around the camp. The toss went straight into the middle of the night. The result of nothing made Zhang Yisheng so angry that he had nowhere to vent. In the end, he could only say fiercely, "Ignore him. Forget about that whistle, that's all!"

And it turned out that the whistle did not sound again, and then...

"The whole army charges!!"

"Kill!!!"

The screams of killing under the night made the entire temporary camp 'lively' again...

chapter 149

"This, this trick is really..." Under the night, standing on the sentry tower of the Tiebi tribe, Liu Zheng, who was a little uneasy at first, looked at the hot outsider camp in the distance, and suddenly it was I don't know what to say.

"Before handing the Iron Wall Tribe to me to guard, it was said that it was to deal with some difficult unexpected situations, so the leader specially taught me a few tricks. This trick is called anti-pressure flow harassment tactics." Also standing in the sentry tower Zhao Pan, who was usually expressionless most of the time, now had a look of reverence on his face that could not be concealed.

The people who are carrying out this harassment tactic are obviously Liu Chuan and Zhang Ji, members of the reconnaissance team who are responsible for staying in the Tiebi tribe and maintaining the information transmission between the tribes.

All in all, this night, they can sleep in peace. The more lively the temporary camp for outsiders is, the more peaceful they will sleep.

He was silent all night, and at noon the next day, in the temporary camp, Zhang Yisheng opened his bloodshot eyes and obviously lacked sleep. He imagined that the piece of jerky in his hand was the bastard named Luo Ji opposite, and then nibbled fiercely.

However, what he didn't know was that Luo Ji, the main lord, was not in the Tiebi tribe opposite him at all. Since yesterday, the person who has been fighting against him has been Zhao Pan...

"Boss, are you still fighting today?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yisheng's facial muscles twitched, and then he swept around the camp. He hardly slept peacefully all night. At this time, everyone in the camp seemed to be a little lethargic. A good state for siege warfare.

But if you don't fight now, in this era, after nightfall, it's even less suitable to siege the city in a dark environment. At that time, in all likelihood, you will have to face the harassment of the other party.

Disturbing the enemy in combat like this is disgusting. Even if he knew that the other party was deliberately disrupting their rest, Zhang Yisheng had to obey. A wave of night attacks came over?By then, they will all still be sleeping soundly in the tents, wouldn't they be dead?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yisheng suddenly made a decision in his heart, "Arrange it, divide everyone into two groups, take turns to take a nap, we will attack the city in the afternoon!"

Although his handling method cannot fundamentally solve the problem, it is a solution anyway. After all, in broad daylight, the other party must not dare to come and harass them.

At the same time, on the side of the Tiebi tribe, Liu Zheng, who was carrying the axe on his shoulders, yawned boredly, "It seems that those outsiders will not attack today..."

"Not necessarily." Zhao Pan, who was standing on the side, was not too optimistic. "Although it is a good thing for us to be able to spend the next day easily, the other party may not let us do as we wish."

"Otherwise, what can they do? They were harassed like that last night, and they still have the strength to attack the city? By the way, what about Liu Chuan and Zhang Ji? Didn't they come back?"

"Their reconnaissance team also has a hidden resting base outside the tribal camp, don't worry, as for whether the other party has the strength to attack the city..." Having said this, Zhao Pan pondered for a moment, "If it were me, I should let my troops Take turns to rest for a while, and after they recover a little bit of energy, they will attack the city in the afternoon."

"Isn't it better to take a rest for a whole day and attack the city tomorrow?" Liu Zheng looked incomprehensible.

And Zhao Pan, who heard this, replied with a serious face, "If they do that, I will let the reconnaissance team continue to harass them after nightfall today."

"Are you the devil?"

"The leader said that to be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself."

"..."

"Returning to the topic, it is impossible for the leader of the outsider to miss this link. Once he does this, it is equivalent to falling into the dilemma of being unilaterally consumed by me, and in order to avoid this, he must also find a way to consume us. …”

Hearing this, Liu Zheng can be considered to have completely understood the matter, "So, his way of consuming us is to attack the city?"

"That's right." Zhao Pan nodded.

"Then instead of waiting here, we might as well take the initiative to attack, and while they are resting now, kill them and catch them off guard!"

Looking at Liu Zheng who was excited when he said this, Zhao Pan actually understood it. After all, Liu Zheng has not played a good game for a long time. In the Mingjing tribe, he could still find Luo Yong and Guo when he was bored. Zhen practiced against him, and on the Tiebi Tribe, there was no one who could practice against him, so one can imagine how boring life is. However, Zhao Pan understands this kind of thing, but it does not Doesn't mean he will allow it.

"Let's not say that the other party has absolutely left manpower just in case, let's talk about the issue of troop deployment, what should we fight? Is it just ten shield axemen and five archers? The slingers are not suitable to follow you all the way. If you can't beat it, you need to retreat. With the speed of the slingers, there will definitely be heavy casualties. After all, when the leader deployed troops to the Tiebi tribe, he mainly focused on defending the city, not I want us to take the risk and rush out..." Having said this, Zhao Pan took a deep breath, "In other words, our current goal should be to defend the Iron Wall Tribe, and then wait for the leader to lead the reinforcements to come and support it, not to bear the burden. necessary risk."

Liu Zheng, who is not good at talking, can't be Zhao Pan's opponent, let alone Zhao Pan's words are well-founded, making him completely unable to refute, and the whole person suddenly became depressed, "Okay, since that's the case. , I'm going to take a nap too, to keep my spirits up, and call me when the other party is attacking the city."

"Yeah." Zhao Pan replied. To be honest, it wasn't just Liu Zheng. He felt that he needed to take a nap. He was originally sent by Luo Ji to sit in the third sub-city. Due to his personality, he would not show this pressure on his face. For several months, he has been conscientiously protecting the safety of the Tiebi tribe. Even when the enemy does not appear, he does not dare to have a trace. slack.

With the appearance of extraterritorial intruders, the pressure on him, which was not small, suddenly increased sharply. After nightfall last night, he had been thinking about various situations that might happen in the future, and then thinking about various countermeasures. After the night passed, he hardly slept, and the words "dedicated" to him were really appropriate.

Leaning in the tent where he was alone, until this moment, Zhao Pan's stern face finally relaxed, and a trace of exhaustion that could not be concealed appeared on his face...

Chapter 1 Fifty

"Command! The siege troops of the outsiders have begun to assemble!"

Outside the tent, a report from a subordinate came in. Zhao Pan, who was taking a nap, suddenly opened his eyes, and after recovering a little, he said aloud, "Tell all the defending troops to gather behind the city gate, I will soon. arrive!"

After speaking, Zhao Pan got up quickly, scooped a bowl of water from the clay pot where the water was stored, and washed his face with cold water, his tired face was quickly covered up. From the moment he walked out of the tent, He once again changed back to the calm and steady defender of the city!

"Where is the siege force of the aliens advancing to?"

Zhao Pan's calm voice calmed the soldiers who were still obviously nervous inexplicably, only to hear a sentinel running over quickly and replying, "It's still three hundred paces away."

Hearing this, Zhao Pan nodded, and he already had an idea in his heart, and then issued an order loudly, "This round of siege battle, the slinger troops are divided into two groups, the first, second, and third squads. Responsible for concentrating on suppressing the opposing siege troops, later referred to as Team No. [-], the fourth team is responsible for suppressing the opponent's archer troops, and later referred to as Team No. [-], when you start, follow my instructions!"

"In addition, the archer team is responsible for sniping the siege vehicles on the opposite side, and the shield and axe troops are still responsible for protecting the slingers!"

"Yes!" The soldiers of all units who heard the order responded in unison.

Afterwards, Zhao Pan picked up a spare circular leather shield and climbed directly onto one of the sentry towers. Obviously, he was going to take command of the post. After all, compared to the sentinel, he was also a slinger. After confirming the position and distance of the enemy troops with their own eyes, they can give more precise orders.

Outside the city, the siege troops of the outsiders were advancing with all their strength, apparently trying to advance a little further before Zhao Pan and others who were the defenders of the city could react.

However, how fast can it go?Even in the age of cold weapons, the light cavalry, which is recognized as the fastest, is unlikely to rush to the outside of the opponent's gate before the defending troops react, and it is even more impossible for the infantry, unless all the defending troops are Blind man, by the way, cavalry is not suitable for siege warfare at all.
