Immortality: Starting from practicing Zombie and Taming Ghosts in Yizhuang...

Chapter 207 The Night Visit
In Nether Mountain.

Li Yuan and others gathered together, and Li Yuan briefly explained the situation to everyone.

Naturally, everyone did not dare to say anything in the face of Li Yuan's order. After that, Li Yuan asked everyone to go about their business. After that, Li Yuan found Niu Ben and gave him a sixth-grade inner breath method. He found some confidants who had passed the exam to practice this method to improve his overall strength.

Except for the demon demons and the five generals of the Yang family, almost all the people under Niu Ben are eighth- and ninth-grade warriors. Their overall strength is too low. If something happens, it may be difficult to even save their lives.

Here, outside Echuan City, the Dayuan army arrived and attacked the city without saying a word. Fortunately, these Yuan people came over in a surprise attack and did not bring any siege equipment.

When Echuan City was built, the defenses were very well built due to the unique terrain. After all, there was no way to retreat. It would be unjustifiable if the defenses were to cut corners.

Both sides attacked the city. The Dayuan people were cruel and tyrannical. They attacked the city completely regardless of casualties. Outside Echuan City, after the Dayuan army arrived, they did not waste time and immediately launched an siege.

The defenders in Echuan City were already prepared. They stood on the city wall, holding their weapons tightly, to welcome the enemy's attack.

The cruel and brutal siege methods of the Dayuan people are frightening.

Regardless of casualties, they rushed to the city wall mercilessly and smashed the city gate with all their strength.On the city wall, the defenders fought hard and used solid fortifications to block the enemy's attacks time and time again.

Li Zhannan stood on the city wall, his brows furrowed and his eyes solemn.

He knew that if Echuan City was breached, he, the frontline commander, would not be able to survive no matter what. Once he died, the morale of the three armies would plummet, and countless people would lose their lives on this land.

Li Zhannan turned to look at the deputy general Guo Chuan beside him and asked: "Has the light bow and crossbow been set up?"

The light industrial crossbow is a siege defense crossbow newly developed by the Chiguo Institute. It is made of special willow bamboo and precision light steel. It is easy to carry and has great power. However, the cost is too high. Currently, only Li Zhannan’s team is equipped with it. .

Lieutenant General Guo Chuan turned around when he heard this, and then replied: "It's ready!"

After hearing this, Li Zhannan took a look at the situation under the city, and then immediately issued an order to have the crossbows ready and the elite troops to be ready.

"Three hundred on the city wall, two hundred at the city gate!"

"Go fast, hurry up!!"

Shortly after the order was issued, there was a sudden shock from below.

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly sounded, and the city gate was broken open by the enemy!
The Dayuan people poured into the city like a tide, waving their swords and roaring fiercely.

"Shoot arrows!!"

“Swish swish!!!”

Two hundred light bows and crossbows fired arrows together, and the sound of arrow feathers being fired and the sound of flesh and blood breaking came almost simultaneously.

The defenders in Echuan City suddenly fell into a fierce battle.

In an instant, the Red Army at the door faced Dayuan's army, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. The swords and swords were intertwined. Li Zhannan's army was an elite army after all, and both sides paid a heavy price in an instant.

Above, Li Zhannan also rushed towards the battlefield. He drew out the sword from his waist and waved the long sword in his hand, his cold eyes showing determination and determination.

Under the leadership of Li Zhannan, the morale of the defenders was greatly boosted.

They resisted vigorously and guarded the city gate with their lives.

The smell of death filled the city of Echuan, but the defenders had no intention of retreating. Time passed by, and the battle became more intense. Dayuan's people seemed to want to capture Li Zhannan alive. After the city gate was opened, they all fought in close combat. kill
Rivers of blood flowed in Echuan City, with countless casualties and people from Dayuan attacking one after another.

Fortunately
Chiguo seemed to have received the news, and the defenders of Tanyuan County, which was closest to Echuan City, came to support and gave Li Zhannan a breath of relief.

It's just that the overall quality of Tanyuan County's defenders was too poor. When the [-] defenders joined Li Zhannan's troops, less than [-] were left.

In Nether Mountain.

The battle situation in Echuan City was immediately reported to Li Yuan.

"This Li Zhannan deserves to be the first marshal of the Red Kingdom. With less than 2000 people, he actually managed to drag reinforcements over." In front of Li Yuan, An Nuan was sitting there, pouring tea for Li Yuan and describing the situation in the city.

"Master, there are a lot of good things in the city now, we want them"

Hearing this, Li Yuan took a sip of the tea in front of him, and then said: "Don't worry, sometimes. In fact, we may not need to pick it up in person."

It is a custom on the battlefield in Chi Kingdom that the corpses will be burned immediately after the war, but Li Zhannan's army probably has no time to care about these things now, and Li Yuan has other thoughts in mind at this moment.

night.

Li Zhannan and others took a short rest in the city and lightly inspected the battle damage.

"marshal."

In the governor's house, Li Zhannan's right arm was wrapped in a bandage, and his deputy Guo Chuan and Guo Lin came in front of him with a roster.

"speak."

Li Zhannan looked at his deputy Guo Chuan and Guo Lin and said while dealing with his injuries.

"More than [-] people were killed, more than [-] people were found, and more than [-] people were injured."

"Whoo~"

Li Zhannan took a long breath, having already estimated the casualties in his mind.

"Where's Dayuan?" Li Zhannan asked again.

Deputy General Guo Chuan and Guo Lin were silent for a while before speaking: "It is estimated that there are less than 3000 people."

Although the battle was fought back and forth and was very brutal, the ones who suffered the most damage were the troops of the Red Kingdom.

"Ha ha."

Li Zhannan slowly lowered his head and laughed at himself with a wry smile.

There has been no war in the Red Country for a hundred years, and soldiers from all over the country are trained. After being brought to the battlefield, the casualty ratio is almost ten to one, twenty to one, or even one hundred to one. It has not happened before.

Such a record made him, the first marshal of the Red Kingdom, completely embarrassed.

During the long period of fighting against Dayuan, Li Zhannan had commanded nearly fifty battles. His tactics and strategies were pretty good, but his soldiers were really bad. Sometimes he even took the lead in deployment. However, he was defeated by Dayuan's army and turned defeat into victory.

In fifty battles, Li Zhannan won three in total. The reason for these three victories was because he personally fought in the field.

"Marshal, there should be no hope for Tanyuan County now."

"Now, we."

Deputy General Guo Chuan and Guo Lin hesitated to speak. Now they are a trapped beast. The nearly 6 Yuan troops outside the city may attack at any time. By then, the less than [-] defenders in Echuan City will not be able to hold on much.

Li Zhannan stood up and looked at the sand table in front of him and began to think deeply, thinking about ways to break the situation.

"You go down first and pay close attention to the movements of the Yuan army."

Li Zhannan said calmly.

"Yes."

After deputy general Guo Chuan and Guo Lin left, Li Zhannan's face darkened again, "Friend, just show up when you come."
