The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 721 Consumption, seesaw (for subscription)

All morning, Mo Xiaobai was waiting for the next attack of the Han army.

But until the time approached noon, there was no sign of a large-scale attack by the enemy, only scattered sentry posts looking at Mingshui City on the other side of the river.

Mo Xiaobai couldn't figure out the opponent's routine, and still led a dozen people to guard on the top of the city.

However, just after noon, the long-lost noisy footsteps reappeared.

Again!
This time it was still a thousand-man team, which was almost the same as before, except that they had prepared themselves against the 'ice surface' and brought a lot of boards and sandbags to prevent them from falling down when they stepped off the pontoon bridge.

Three wooden ladders approached the top of the city, and many soldiers began to climb the wooden ladders again.

Pang De and others guarding the top of the wall naturally counterattacked and threw down the large shield they picked up earlier.

You can't kill them, but you can hurt a few.

The siege battle started again, just like the battle two hours ago.The slight difference is that the size of the Han army attacking the city was a little smaller, and the soldiers outside the city no longer seemed to be crowded together.

This dozen took another hour.

Seeing that the more than a thousand soldiers in the siege had accumulated [-] to [-]% casualties, Mo Xiaobai felt that if he attacked at this time, he should be able to drive this army back as before.

However, just as he was about to move, the order to retreat came from the other side of the river first.

Hearing the order to retreat, a group of soldiers stopped guarding the siege ladder and began to cover each other and retreat slowly.

Just leave so simply and neatly!

"What do you mean by this?" Mo Xiaobai was a little upset watching the retreat of the Han army. The opponent just got stuck in retreating when he was about to exert force, and he had obviously seen through his mind.

Mo Xiaobai's attack was not so much to kill the enemy, but to force the opponent to retreat in exchange for time to rest.

Now that the opponent is taking the initiative to retreat, it is tantamount to giving Mo Xiaobai a chance to rest and procrastinate.

Abnormal, and weird!
Mo Xiaobai couldn't figure it out, so he immediately called all the generals under his command to his side: "What do you think?"

"My lord, although the enemy army is temporarily retreating, they will definitely not give up." Li Guang has always had good battlefield wits, and said immediately: "We can't attack hard, I guess they will continue to use the strategy of exhausting the enemy."

"Take turns to attack after a while, which seems to give me a chance to rest, but it makes me unable to really rest at ease. After a long time, I will be physically and mentally exhausted."

Li Guang's analysis is very simple and the reason is very clear.

Play for an hour and rest for an hour. It is impossible to sleep deeply during the rest hour, at most you can just squint for a while.

When he squinted his eyes and saw that he was about to fall asleep, the battle started again.

Such tossing and tossing back and forth is more difficult than fighting for a whole day.

The opponent chose this method to exhaust the enemy, and Mo Xiaobai quickly thought of another point.

The number of soldiers and horses of the siege Han army may not be too many. If there are really enough soldiers and horses, they will definitely adopt the method of attacking day and night regardless of casualties.

But they did not attack by force at the moment, nor chose to feint, or simply harassed with the sound of drums, which also showed that their opponents still had troops available.

It won't be too many, and it won't be too few. Judging from the offense and defense of two consecutive fights, it will be between 6000 and [-] people.

"I see."

After estimating the troops deployed by Liu Heita to attack Mingshui City, Mo Xiaobai can also calculate the next battle situation.

After all, what Liu Heita wanted was Mingshui City, not the heads of people like himself.

.........

At the end of the day, the soldiers and horses of the Han army came again.

More than a thousand soldiers and horses began to attack the north gate in an orderly manner, and Mo Xiaobai also joined the battle at the top of the city.

An hour passed, as if stuck in time, the Han army that left hundreds of corpses began to withdraw again.

Youshi, fight again.

Haishi, continue.

At that time, the shouts of killing were still loud and loud.

The Han army attacked Mingshui City one after another regardless of day and night.

Mo Xiaobai and the others were intentionally set apart for a rest, but in fact this kind of rest was a challenge to the nerves, because even the slightest disturbance would make people feel that the Han army had come back again.

In the weather where the heavy snow still doesn't stop, fighting like this is definitely a painful torture.

Mo Xiaobai and the other generals were alright, the worst thing was that they could not close their eyes for a day or two, but those low-level military officers couldn't bear it. Although no one was injured, they were already gasping for breath.

After a game, he leaned directly against the wall, and had long since lost the strength to go out of the city to clean up the battlefield.

The situation on Mo Xiaobai's side is gradually getting worse, and on the other side, Rogue Rabbit is suffering even more.Although he brought fourth-tier elite soldiers this time, which were much stronger than Liu Heita's hastily recruited soldiers, they couldn't stand up to this wave of rushing.

Thirty percent of the thirty elite soldiers have been injured. What's worse, Jing Dan and the others have exhausted their energy, and their strength has been greatly reduced.

"In the daytime, I can't hold on anymore."

The rogue rabbit had no choice but to come to Mo Xiaobai for help: "The opponent this time has no intention of letting us rest at all. I don't know how many tough battles we have to fight in the second half of the night."

"It's not easy for me, but I can ask Li Guang to help you." Mo Xiaobai knew what the rogue rabbit was here for, so he didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly called Li Guang's name.

The east gate is as important as the north gate, losing the east gate is equivalent to losing the dungeon, Mo Xiaobai knows this well.

Signaling Li Guang to go with the rogue rabbit, Mo Xiaobai took out two jugs of wine from his sumeru bag.

"It's been a long night, let's have a drink together."

The shochu entered the throat, driving away the chill brought by the heavy snow, and it could also refresh people's spirits. Looking at the small schools whose faces recovered slightly, Mo Xiaobai was thinking about the loss of the Han army.

Fighting from morning to night, at least two thousand people were lost.

If you persist until tomorrow, this number will expand to more than three thousand.

Once the battle damage reaches this level, Mo Xiaobai believes that Liu Heita will either give up Mingshui City, or he will have to increase his troops.

If you choose the former, the dungeon will end naturally.

If he chooses the latter, it will reduce the pressure on Li Er in Mingshui's other battles.

With the ability of those people in Tiance Fu, they should be able to grasp it.

"I know it well, and the generals of the Han army also know it if I want to come."

"Tonight, will there be other variables?"

No matter how Mo Xiaobai guesses, what should come will always come.

At the third quarter of the ugly hour, the Han army launched another attack.

The torch swayed in the wind and snow, reflecting brave faces.

The Han army is uneven in terms of training, equipment, etc. The only thing worthy of praise is that they all come from the land of Yanzhao.

The camp of thousands of people was nearly [-]% empty in one day, and it didn't make other people flinch and fear.

This group of people stepped into the battlefield, still rushing to the top of the city with all their strength.

An hour of fighting is a real tough battle.

After finally surviving another wave of attacks and sending the five injured juniors down, Mo Xiaobai let out a deep breath when he turned around.

The S-level dungeon is indeed a tossing person.

After sitting down and resting for less than half an hour, Mo Xiaobai and the generals got up together when they saw the Han army on the other side of the river regroup and continue to approach.

It was just a simple standing movement, but Mo Xiaobai saw that the feet of more than a dozen military officers of the Great Dream City were vacant, and they swayed for a while before supporting the wall to stand firm.

Everyone's physical strength is reaching its limit!
