Chapter 558: Attack the City!!
The siege soon began outside the Demon City, thousands of miles away from the capital of Dayong.

Lu Yuanzhi would definitely not be stupid enough to let the Yuanyang Army, which is good at field combat, take the lead.

Therefore, this extremely difficult task fell on the soldiers in southern Xinjiang.

Lilixing and Xiangbo dared not disobey.

Just looking at the extremely solid city wall, Lilixing and Xiangbo could only smile bitterly at each other.

Although they were forced to do it, these two people completely exploded.

Lili walked two miles away from the imperial city of Demon Capital and squinted his eyes at the top of the city wall.

"The only way to survive now is to fight to the death."

Xiang Bo was beside Li Lixing, and there was a hint of helplessness in his voice.

He was actually feeling extremely upset, but the situation was pressing and there was nothing he could do.

"Ah."

Lilixing glanced in Lu Yuanzhi's direction without leaving a trace.

At this time, Lu Yuanzhi was outside the tent, accompanied by several military leaders of the Yong Dynasty, who looked at the two of them with indifferent eyes.

"There's no other way. We can only attack the city first."

Lilixing sighed and set his sights on the 30,000 well-equipped Southern Xinjiang soldiers in front of him.

Fortunately, although Lu Yuanzhi was ruthless, he did not blatantly let them die.

The equipment standards are all based on them, and they are fully armed.

only……

Lilixing felt sad.

He still remembered that he had brought nearly 100,000 soldiers, but now there were only 30,000 left.

A total of 70,000 brave warriors from southern Xinjiang died in a foreign land.

Thinking about it now, this was an extremely tragic thing.

Although when he was in southern Xinjiang, he had no feelings for people from other tribes.

They may even fight overtly or covertly for some personal gain.

But in the final analysis, even if we are far away from each other in a foreign land, we still have more feelings for each other because of people who come from the same place.

"Report, Lord Chief, the siege ladders have been built and are ready."

The leader of a small tribe in southern Xinjiang came forward and respectfully reported to Lilixing.

At this time, the leaders of the small tribes in southern Xinjiang were extremely excited.

Because Lu Yuanzhi promised them before the war.

No matter which tribe reaches the top of the city first, that tribe will directly get the best fiefdom and will also receive a lot of support from Dayong.

This is something they have been trying to achieve but have never been able to do.

Therefore, their hearts were extremely hot.

"Ah."

Looking at the fiery eyes of those little leaders.

Lilixing sighed for no reason.

These small leaders only care about immediate interests.

"Begin the siege!!"

Lilixing's gaze became firm. He looked at the city wall that was dozens of feet high, with determination in his eyes.

Since there is no way back, the next step is to leave it to yourself to perform, and make sure there are no regrets!
"call!!!"

"All the people of the Zir tribe, follow me!!!"

Lilixing spread his wings and flew into the sky in an instant.

Seeing Lili like this, nearly a thousand humanoid creatures who looked similar to him all brightened up their faces and followed Lili into the sky.

“Raise your bow!!!”

There was an extremely serious emotion in Li Lixing's voice.

Hearing his words, all the Zir tribe members who were in the air with him raised the grain bows from Dayong in their hands.

After shouting the order, Lilixing's gaze was directly on Xiangbo's face on the ground.

Xiang Bo received the order, and that extremely charming face suddenly burst into a cry:
"My fellows, follow me!!!"

"kill!!!"

Suddenly, drums beat loudly and shouts of killing shook the sky.

Among the thirty thousand soldiers, a formation of ten thousand attacked forward.

And those in the front who were holding ladders instantly raised them and headed towards the city.

"Hurry!!! Throw the big rock!!"

On the top of the city wall, a demon who was at the level of Demon King saw the deafening shouting and killing, his face turned cold, and he calmly commanded his demon soldiers.

"Bang!!!"

Large rocks fell towards the bottom of the city wall.

"what!!!"

"what!!!"

Screams were heard one after another.

But the inspiring drumbeats coming from behind were getting faster and faster.

Countless people rushed forward, setting up the ladder and vowing to hang it on the extremely high city wall.

At this moment, Lilixing in the air had a ruthless look on his face. He was the first to shoot the arrow from the bow in his hand, hitting a demon soldier with great accuracy.

The throat of the demon soldier who was hit was pierced instantly, and the big stone in his hand fell weakly to the ground.

Fall directly to the ground.

As Lilixing shot the arrow, the rest of the Zir people also raised their bows and arrows.

"Choo Choo Choo!!"

"Choo Choo Choo!!"

The sky full of arrows was trying to suppress the demon soldiers on the wall who were preparing to throw down boulders.

For a moment, the boulders stopped rolling down, and the demon soldiers on the top of the city walls had no strength left to throw more boulders.

That is to take advantage of this time.

"Kakaka!!"

Several sounds.

The ladder weighing thousands of pounds was firmly placed on the city wall.

"Charge!!! The first one to reach the top alive will be rewarded with a fiefdom!!!"

Xiang Bo also knew that at this time he had to arouse the passion in everyone's hearts.

After hearing this, the Southern Xinjiang soldiers, who were originally a little tired, all burst out with amazing will.

Climb up the ladder directly.

"Choo Choo Choo!!!"

The arrows in the air were still suppressing the demon soldiers on the top of the city.

"We can't go on like this!!"

Behind the city wall, an old demon with a solemn expression had a gleam in his eyes.

"Chief! Let me fight!!!"

A demon king level monster next to the old monster knelt directly on the ground.

This monster has black feathers and a pair of wings on its back.

The face of Lei Gong is exactly like that of Lei Gong.

"it is good!!"

The old demon shouted without any hesitation:

"I grant you a thousand feathered monsters to hold back the Nazr people in the sky!"

"Yes!!"

The face of the Feathered Demon King was extremely resolute. After receiving the order, he headed to the top of the city wall.

"Chirp!!!"

Ignoring the flying arrows, the Feather Demon King led a thousand other Feather Demons and flew straight into the air.

Lilixing naturally also saw this scene. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He raised the longbow in his hand and shot an arrow at the demon king.

"Chirp!!"

Faced with the unstoppable arrow, the Demon King let out a long cry, dodged sideways, and increased his speed.

"My fellow men, today is the day to serve the Demon King!!!"

The Feathered Demon King spoke in a firm voice as he looked at Lilixing in the air. Soon he was not far away.

Seeing that the bow and arrow suppression had no effect, Li Lixing no longer hesitated, drew the sword at his waist, and rushed towards the demon king first:

"kill!!!"

"kill!!!"

Seeing Lilixing rushing forward, the one thousand Zir tribe warriors behind him also went towards the one thousand Yu tribe demon soldiers with great excitement.

"Bang!!!"

The intersection of long sword and short sword.

A visible air wave spread out from the collision point in all directions.

"Whoo~"

Several warriors from the Zil and Feather tribes who were caught off guard leaned back uncontrollably.

Fortunately, they were very skilled in controlling flight, and they just stabilized their bodies slightly before rushing towards the opponent again.

"Bang!!!"

"kill!!!"

"die!!!"

The battle between two thousand winged humanoid creatures opened the eyes of everyone below.

There was a hint of curiosity in Lu Yuanzhi's eyes.

This was the first time he had seen such a grand occasion.

In the past, even in the 21st century, humans did not have the technology to achieve such a flying melee in the sky. Even in movies, it was rare to see such a realistic fight. "Cool!"

There was excitement in Lu Yuanzhi's voice.

"what?"

Aunt Lengdan stood behind him, a look of confusion on her face.

"Well, I don't see many aerial fights, so I was a little distracted."

Lu Yuanzhi explained with a smile.

"..."

Aunt Lengdan was left speechless by Lu Yuanzhi's imagination.

After nodding expressionlessly, he turned his attention to the battle on the other side of the city wall.

Because there are not many ladders, only five, and not many people can climb up the ladders.

Therefore, there are still many people from the southern Xinjiang tribes queuing up below.

The little demons of the demon race have incomplete intelligence, so when they fight, they don't care about their lives.

But what is surprising is that the soldiers of those southern border tribes are no worse than the little monsters of the demon clan.

There was even a blood-red look in their eyes.

Looking at the little demons in the demon city, how could they be just ordinary little demons? They were pieces of tempting fiefdoms!
"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

With the people of the Feather Tribe going to interfere with the Zir Tribe, the suppression of arrows in the air disappeared instantly, so many people of the Demon Tribe dropped huge rocks and continued to bombard the Southern Frontier soldiers under the city.

"what!!"

"what!!"

There were constant screams, but this did not affect the morale of the soldiers in southern Xinjiang at all.

"boom!!"

Finally, a brave soldier from southern Xinjiang was the first to climb to the top of the city wall.

The first one to reach the top of the city wall must have strong fighting power.

So as soon as he stood firm, he couldn't wait to kill the demon soldiers around him.

"Die!!!"

The eyes of the warrior from southern Xinjiang were red, and the blade of the knife in his hand was almost bent, and waves of blood burst out.

"Hahaha!!"

Although the demon soldiers tried their best to stop it, they were still unable to avoid being able to open a gap.

With the first one, there will be the second, the third...

Soon, dozens of warriors had climbed to the top of the city wall.

"Damn!!"

The demon king on the other side saw this scene, with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Without any nonsense, he instantly picked up the long sword in his hand and rushed over here at a very fast speed.

"die!!!"

With one strike of his sword, the brave warriors from southern Xinjiang who had finally climbed to the top of the city wall were soon killed by his sword.

Finally, after killing the last Nanjiang warrior on the city wall, the demon king's face turned gloomy:
"Use boiling oil!!"

"Yes!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, some of the demon soldiers started a fire.

In a moment, the entire city wall was filled with smoke.

"fall!!!"

After getting the boiling oil, the little demons from the demon tribe fell towards the Southern Xinjiang warriors on the ladder with ferocious faces.

"Hey!!!"

"Hey!!!"

"Hey!!!"

Pots of boiling oil rolled down the ladder like waterfalls, along with the flames.

"Ah!!!"

"what!!!"

……

The people from southern Xinjiang who were touched by the boiling oil turned burnt red in an instant. Their miserable appearance made anyone who saw them shudder.

“Puff!!”

As the body fell to the ground.

The fire gradually died down, and a strong smell of meat filled the battlefield.

"continue!!!"

Seeing the good effect, the Demon King looked coldly at the warriors from Southern Xinjiang who were still climbing up.

I couldn't help feeling annoyed.

"There are so many people to kill!!"

He punched the blue bricks of the city wall heavily.

……

"It's a bit troublesome."

Seeing this scene from a distance, Lu Yuanzhi gently stroked his already growing beard and frowned slightly.

"Marshal, how about mobilizing the artillery battalion?"

Wu Qianfeng, who was standing by, saw Lu Yuanzhi's actions and stepped forward bravely to ask for orders.

"Um……"

Lu Yuanzhi pondered softly.

At this point, we really cannot stand by and watch the morale of the demon people be so high while the morale of the southern border tribes is so low.

"allow!"

There was a hint of coldness in Lu Yuanzhi's voice.

"Yes!"

Wu Qianfeng did not hesitate and led his men to mobilize troops.

"So we're going to use artillery?"

Aunt Lengdan showed a little worry on her face. She looked at Lu Yuanzhi and asked doubtfully:
"Why not wait until the Southern Border soldiers are exhausted and then take action when the Yuanyang Army attacks the city?"

The corner of Lu Yuanzhi's mouth twitched.

Well, Aunt Lenglan is the real living devil.

"The people of the southern border tribes cannot all die."

Lu Yuanzhi did not give any reply, but just gave a seemingly plausible answer.

"Oh."

Aunt Lengdan couldn't guess what was in Lu Yuanzhi's mind, so she just replied faintly and didn't say anything else.

……

At this time, under the city wall, Xiang Bo's face looked extremely ugly.

He never thought that the soldiers of the demon tribe had actually learned the way of defending the city of Dayong people.

Even if the kerosene got on his body, he would inevitably feel pain.

Anyone can see that the kerosene has been spiked.

The deaths of the brave warriors in Southern Xinjiang made His heart bleed.

"At this moment, we can only give it a try."

Xiang Bo's heart became ruthless, he gritted his teeth, and wanted to activate his true form and head towards the top of the city wall.

But he was stopped by the voice of Wu Qianfeng.

"Don't panic, Chief Xiangbo, the artillery battalion is coming to help!"

As they spoke, a team of 500 people, pushing nearly ten large carts, slowly came towards this side.

Hearing this, Xiang Bo's eyes lit up slightly.

Artillery battalion.

He knew that this was a special weapon developed by the Dayongke Weapons Department.

During the battle of Yumen Pass, he displayed his divine power!

"Thank you, General Wu."

Xiang Bo saluted Wu Qianfeng without any hesitation.

After spending these days together, he also had a clear understanding of the generals under Lu Yuanzhi's command.

He also knew that Wu Qianfeng was the general Lu Yuanzhi trusted the most.

"Well, without further ado, let's start setting up the formation now!"

After returning the salute, Wu Qianfeng looked coldly at the top of the city wall that was dozens of feet high, his face extremely solemn.

"Crack!!"

The muzzles of the guns on the carts were aimed at the top of the city.

Those Dayong soldiers were well-trained and quickly debugged everything.

"fire!!!"

Without any hesitation, Wu Qianfeng pressed the small flag in his hand down.

"嗞～"

The sound of the fuse being lit was heard, and ten cannons burst into deafening flames almost at the same time.

"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

The roar from the cannon seemed to shake the entire sky down!
