Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

"Fuck!"

Listening to the tips shared by Babel Tower, Feng Cheng immediately changed his color: "Is there a second stage for this skill?"

"I'm afraid it won't stop!"

Zhang Yan looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "There is no relevant information in the academy's database. This attack on the city should be the innate skill of the opponent's lord. As the siege time and the strength of one's own troops increase, different effects will occur. This siege is only the second stage. There may even be a third phase!”

After saying that, he turned his eyes and looked around. However, on the city wall, there was only a female general leading the guards to patrol around, and that person was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing such a scene made Zhang Yan anxious, but she was helpless.

The enemy's military strength has increased to 15,000. Coupled with the effect of "army approaching the city", it is only a matter of time before an attack is launched to break the city. Although the combat power of those people is strong, it is impossible to fight against 10,000, right?

Not to mention that the opponent, as a veteran lord on the ranking list, must have a combat hero with superior force. His personal combat power may not have much advantage.

At this point in the situation, it can be said that the defeat is certain and there is almost no possibility of recovery.

What to do?

Zhang Yan didn't know that at this point, she had no other choice but to take it one step at a time.

…

In this way, another two months passed.

"The enemy lord "Augustus" used a special skill - Reinforcement Order!"

"The enemy lord "Zhao Wuji" used the battle order (support)"

"The enemy lord "Adams" used the War Order (Support)"

"Enemy reinforcements are arriving!"

"The enemy's military strength has reached 30,000, which is three times the military strength of your territory. The effect of the special skill "Army at the City" has been enhanced!"

"Your territory has fallen into a "Jedi" state. Lords and heroes are prohibited from entering and exiting the Tower of Babel. Except for defensive facilities, all buildings have lost their effects. Food resource consumption has doubled, food morale effects have been halved, and the morale of all units has been reduced by 20~40 points per day. !”

"The Jedi state will last for fifteen days. After fifteen days, the "Attack on the Wall" effect will end!"

"..."

"Fuck!"

On top of the city wall, Feng Cheng exclaimed again, looking at the enemy camp with a horrified face. He saw turbulent undercurrents, magic light, and teleported a large number of soldiers over.

On the other side, Zhang Yan's face turned pale as she looked at the surging Moyuan troops outside the city, and then recalled the reminder from Babel Tower: "Food consumption is doubled, morale effect is halved, and it will be reduced by twenty to forty every day. Boost your morale. If you keep fighting like this, you don’t have to fight. If you hang around for a few days, your morale will hit rock bottom..."

"This is so fucking gangster!"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Cheng on the side said angrily: "How can a first-order lord have such abnormal skills, and be able to form a coalition of tens of thousands of people to attack other people's territory, without any balance at all?"

"balance?"

Zhang Yan could only smile bitterly after hearing this.

This is reality, not a game. There is no balance to talk about. Are those talented lords who have legendary talents or even god-level talents as soon as they enter the Babel Tower balanced?

This world is inherently unfair, and the Tower of Babel is even more so. The Lord's world only has victory, defeat, and life and death, but no fairness or justice.

Of course, although the enemy's "siege flow" tactics are rogue, they are not completely unsolvable.

As long as enough reinforcements are summoned from the Tower of Babel before the opponent attacks the territory, or they decisively leave the city during the first wave of siege by the opponent, and everything is defeated, there is hope that this set of siege flow tactics can be broken.

It's a pity that they didn't and kept holding on until they finally reached such a desperate situation.

Now the opponent is even less anxious. Under the effect of "Jedi", the morale of the troops in the city can only be described as an avalanche. Food alone cannot sustain it. As long as the siege continues for a few more days, the defenders with the lowest morale will rebel. , fighting each other, leaving this strong city to collapse without attack.

What to do?

What to do!

"It's time to eat!"

Just when Zhang Yan was at a loss, a middle-aged man with a short figure and dozens of guys with big heads and thick necks lifted baskets onto the city wall. Suddenly, a strong fragrance filled the air, making people feel as big as their index fingers. move.

"This is……"

Zhang Yan and the others looked at each other with somewhat strange expressions.

"This is the new cooking cake made by my master. It is very fragrant. Come on, come on!"

"This is the new wine brewed by Qu Shuai and my master together. It's very beautiful!"

Dozens of Wu Da cooks carried baskets and distributed cooking cakes to the soldiers on the city wall. Zhang Yan and Feng Chengdu were given two cooking cakes and a small jar of wine.

Wuhan University Cooking Pancakes (Meat Filling)

Food and other columns: Level 1 (rare)

Food special effect: delicious pie (after use, physical strength +2, physical recovery +15, injury recovery +15, morale +20, lasts for four hours)

Food introduction: The improved Wuhan University cooking pancakes change the vegetarian filling into meat filling, which has a better taste and satiety effect. It is a rare market delicacy.

burn knife

Food level: Level 1 (rare)

Food special effects: Shao Knife Liquor (after use, physical strength +2, physical recovery +20, morale +30, lasts for three hours, and has a drunken effect)

Food introduction: Brewed by famous chefs, it is known as the "King of Spirits". Drinking it can make you brave, but don't be greedy.

…

Looking at the introduction of the two types of special foods, Zhang Yan and Feng Cheng looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

They knew that Xu Yang could make special food, and even made a deal with Xu Yang for "Secret Wu Da Cooking Cake", but they still didn't expect that Xu Yang could use this food to crack the opponent's siege tactics.

Will this work?

Although the combination of Wu Da's cooking cakes and roasted knives can increase morale by fifty points, coupled with the effect of Hua Mulan's epic commander, it can barely offset the influence of "Jedi", but this will pose a great challenge to the food supply.

Making special food requires consuming more resources, and the effects of Wuhan University's cooking cakes and roasting knives can only last for a few hours. I don't know how much it will consume in a day, plus the previous three months, the food resources in this territory can Can you hold it?

The two of them didn't know, but at this point, they had no other choice but to wait and see.

So and so...

"What's going on?"

"It's been six days, and the morale on the other side hasn't collapsed yet?"

In the Moyuan camp, the three people gathered together again, all frowning.

"The other party is just a rookie lord, and the food reserves should not be too large. After three months of siege, he can still hold on?"

"Even if there is enough food, it will be enough to offset the blow to morale caused by the troops approaching the city. It seems that the opponent has a high probability of having an epic-level or even legendary-level commander."

"Six days have passed now, and the effect will end if the Nine Heavenly Soldiers approach the city again. By then, we will be unable to ban the opponent from entering and exiting the Babel Tower. If they move in to rescue troops, or take territorial resources and escape into the Babel Tower, then all our efforts will be in vain."

"This coalition dispatch has consumed a lot of our resources and battle orders. If we cannot completely capture the rookie lord, our losses will be irreparable."

Zao Wou-Ki and Adams exchanged words with each other, and finally both turned their attention to Augustus in the center.

"We can't wait any longer. Let's attack the city. No matter what the cost, we will take down this lord!"

Augustus had no words, his expression was cold and silent.

for a long time……

"Three days, wait three more days!"

…

Two days later, on the city wall.

"Eight days!"

"The Jedi time is already half over!"

"The other side really won't make any move?"

Looking at the camp of Mo Yuan's army, Zhang Yan was surprised and secretly happy.

The Jedi time has passed halfway, and the effect will be lifted in another seven days when the troops arrive at the city. Even if they cannot defend this territory, they can escape back to the Babel Tower without losing everything.

But the other party has invested so much, can they accept such a result?

Apparently...

"Woo!!!"

The trumpet sounded, resounding throughout heaven and earth.

"Coming!"

On the city wall, Hua Mulan's eyes narrowed and she immediately gathered her troops.

Siege the city, besiege it, and attack it to the end.

The other party... couldn't hold it any longer!

Outside the city wall, a large number of soldiers gathered in the Moyuan Alliance camp, and then formed out of the camp, divided into four armies and headed towards the four gates. Giant catapults rumbled out and formed formations outside the four walls.

"The other side has 30,000 troops, and each of the four walls has to bear 7,500 troops!"

"Since I've been attacking the city, I've been doing the main attack, covering the attack, and feinting the attack. If nothing happens, the opponent should mainly attack the north gate in front."

"The other party's civilized arms and special arms..."

…

Three major civilizations, three types of arms, and three major legions.

The Roman legions were basically heavy infantry. Except for the centurions, a special unit, the rest were also fully armed infantry, which were the main force pushing the front.

Most of the Tianlijiao Legion are light infantry with very simple equipment, but the attributes and skills of the special unit Tianli Warriors are very excellent, especially after the unit's special skill magic power protection is activated.

Thirty-five points of physical attributes, plus the second-level full-level physical skills and powerful damage reduction ability, make him fully capable of charging into battle and even killing generals and seizing flags, making him a very difficult existence.

The United States Federal Legion, all of them are shooters, with poor protective equipment and attribute skills, but their weapons are very sharp. The range, accuracy and power of the musket are higher than those of bows and arrows, making them a very terrifying shooter unit.

The three have cooperated for a long time and cooperated closely. The Roman Legion was in front, and the Tianli Legion was behind. They carried siege equipment such as ladders and advanced towards the city wall, while the United States Federal Legion was at the back, relying on the superior range of muskets to cover the advance.

The dozen or so giant catapults launched also exerted their strength at this time, blasting huge stones into the city wall, hitting the soldiers on the wall and the city defense facilities such as towers.

On the north gate, watching the enemy marching forward, Hua Mulan didn't think twice, bent her bow and shot an arrow at the federal archer corps behind her, and the five hundred guards who were setting up the "shooting sound formation" on the left and right also moved.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The bow was like thunder, and with a burst of air-breaking sound, the five hundred female guards shot out nearly 30,000 arrows, covering the federal archer corps and more than a dozen giant catapults in the rear.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Puff, puff!"

"Tap, tap, tap!"

The sound of metal clanging, the sound of sharp blades entering flesh, and the sound of arrows snatching wood, all kinds of sounds rose in an instant, and the federal archer corps' muskets were covered by a dark cloud of arrows before they could even fire, and more than a dozen giant catapults were destroyed.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene, Adams, who was watching from afar in the camp, couldn't help but curse loudly, feeling extremely heartbroken.

Augustus and Zhao Wuji's expressions remained unchanged. The Roman Legion and the Tianlijiao Legion continued to march forward. A reserve archer unit and a giant catapult were pushed out to press into the main battlefield of the north gate.

In war, there are always casualties!

You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. The opponent's most powerful legion skills have been used. Now it's time for them to show their skills.

"Kill!!!"

The Roman Legion advanced, carrying the dense arrows of Mulan's personal guards, and put the cloud ladder on the top of the wall. Then a strong man from the Tianlijiao flew up, like a martial arts master, holding a nine-ring broadsword and flying on the cloud ladder, and in a blink of an eye he jumped onto the more than ten-foot-high city wall.

However, what awaited them was the shield and spear array of the Yellow Turban Corps. One by one, the Yellow Turban infantrymen charged forward with their shields, and the spearmen charged from behind. Although they had divine skills to protect their bodies, and their physical attributes and physical strengthening skills were beyond the limits of the first-level soldiers, they could not break through the shield array and spear forest for a while, and could only fight hard to exchange their lives for theirs...

"Bang!!!"

On the east wall, a young general in white clothes, holding two hammers, with a thousand-pound force in his arms, smashed a Tianli warrior into a red and white thing.

Yue Yun

Hero level: first level (epic)

Hero level: tenth level.

Hero attributes: 65 physical strength, 15 intelligence, 20 charm.

Heroic Skill: Divine Power (Yue Yun is born with divine power, physical growth +5)

Heroic Skill: Fierce Hammer (damage +50%, physical strength +30%, consumption reduced by 20% when using double hammer weapons)

Heroic Skill: Bravery (When Yue Yun is present, the morale of Yue's Beiwei Army and Song's troops is greatly improved, the highest attributes and combat skills of the Beiwei Army are improved by 50%, and the Song's troops are improved by 25%)

Hero Introduction: Yue Fei's son, a young hero, one of the "Four Fierce and Eight Hammers" of the Song Dynasty!

…

Yue Yun, holding a pair of silver hammers, led fifty Beiwei armored soldiers and a group of Song soldiers to guard the east gate wall, and with the momentum of one man guarding a pass against ten thousand men, he forcibly suppressed the impact of the Roman Legion and the Tianli Warriors.

However...

"Good young general, I'll meet you!"

A man jumped onto the wall. He was a middle-aged man, wearing armor and looking very powerful. He jumped onto the wall with a crescent-shaped sword and fought directly with Yue Yun.

"It's the other side's fighting hero!"

In the back, Zhang Yan, who had already retreated to the island, was extremely nervous when she saw Yue Yun being entangled.

This was the epic hero she had finally recruited. If he died here...

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Before she could decide, she was interrupted by the sound of killing. There were battlefields everywhere, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

All arms had been deployed, and even the last two thousand Yellow Turbans were transformed into soldiers in the Yellow Turban camp. More than eight thousand Yellow Turbans plus five hundred Mulan guards, as well as the support troops brought by Zhang Yan and Feng Cheng, nearly ten thousand troops were divided in all directions to resist the attack of the three major enemy legions.

"Fortunately, fortunately, in order to achieve the effect of the enemy approaching the city, most of the other party brought commander-type heroes, with only a few combat-type generals, and the strongest one seemed to be blocked by Yue Yun."

"Otherwise, with so many soldiers and a group of fierce generals leading the way, it would only take a few minutes to break the city."

"By the way, where is Ayang? Why hasn't this kid come yet? If he doesn't come soon, we won't be able to defend it!"

Beside Zhang Yan, Feng Cheng was watching the battle and was also very nervous.

Unlike Zhang Yan, he only recruited one rare hero and dozens of civilized soldiers. In this level of battle, he was like a small boat, and he could capsize at any time.

But he had no choice. The retreat was cut off, and he had to fight to the death.

"Kill!!!"

On the north gate wall, Hua Mulan pulled the exquisite iron-backed bow given to her by Xu Yang, put on the general arrow, and shot down a Tianlijiao strongman who broke through the Yellow Turban Army. The left and right guards also kept shooting the Roman centurions and Tianlijiao strongmen who showed up.

However, this could not change the deterioration of the overall situation. The Yellow Turban Army, which was also a civilized army, was too weak and had no advantage in numbers. As the enemy soldiers continued to climb the city wall, retreat was inevitable.

"Retreat to the island!"

Seeing that the outer wall was about to fall, Hua Mulan no longer held on, and led the guards and the remaining Yellow Turban troops to retreat to the Water Port Wharf.

"Dang!!!"

On the east gate wall, Yue Yun hit the general holding the crescent-shaped sword with his two hammers, knocking him out of the wall, and then withdrew from the city wall with the remaining soldiers, fighting and retreating to the Water Port Wharf.

At this time, the Shuibo Wharf was already full of boats. Although they were ordinary fishing boats, they could also carry people. Hua Mulan took the remaining guards, while covering the retreating Yue Yun, and letting her troops transfer by boat.

Before she knew it, the setting sun was like blood, and the day passed quietly in this bloody battle, and it was dusk.

In one day, just one day, the other side captured the city wall.

The price was tens of thousands of casualties, and the 30,000 troops were directly lost by one-third.

In other words, the lord was fighting, and his Taoist soldiers were fearless. If it was a conventional war, such casualties would not only cause the whole army to collapse, but also greatly reduce morale.

The attacking side lost nearly 10,000 people, and the defending side was not much better. Only Hua Mulan and Yue Yun's two remaining troops of more than 3,000 people retreated to the front of Shuibo, and the remaining 7,000 had already been killed or wounded.

The attacking side suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, and the defending side also suffered 7,000 casualties. It can be seen that the Yellow Turban troops were poor and weak, and they still suffered such a loss ratio while defending the city.

The setting sun was like blood, shining all over the earth. Most of the 3,000 remaining soldiers boarded the fishing boats. Hua Mulan and Yue Yun, who used their last remaining strength to cover, also took their guards and prepared to board the boat to leave.

But they didn't expect...

"Boom!"

The sealed city gate was blatantly knocked open by a steel battering ram, and a group of cavalry entered in a line. It turned out to be a "musketeer cavalry" prepared by the federal army. They rushed in lightly and locked their guns on the remaining soldiers who boarded the ship and fired loudly.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

There was a burst of gunfire, and the dock was instantly dyed red. A large number of yellow turban infantry and Mulan's guards were shot and fell into the water.

"Where are you going!"

There was another angry shout, and another cavalryman rushed out from the musket cavalry. It was the middle-aged general who was beaten down from the city wall by Yue Yun before.

He was seen riding a black horse, rushing out from the musketeers, staring at Yue Yun and Hua Mulan, who was protected by his personal guards. He rushed out like lightning and rushed to the water dock in a blink of an eye.

"General, go!"

Seeing this, the remaining female personal guards protected Hua Mulan and were about to retreat to the boat, but Yue Yun gritted his teeth and stepped forward with a hammer.

"Bang!!!"

With a loud bang, the two generals handed over, and the two sides fought again. The musketeers who were changing ammunition in the rear also made way, and a team of Tianlijiao strongmen rushed over and joined the battlefield to carry out the final stranglehold on the remaining enemy troops.

In this way, blood splashed on the water, and the two sides were inseparable. The tragedy was indescribable. One soldier after another fell to the ground, dyeing the sea and land all scarlet.

At this time...

"Eh!!!"

A long roar, like a dragon rising, howling to shake the sky.

Everyone's eyes fixed, and they looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a red light burning up from the island in the middle of the lake under the setting sun, leaping into the sea and crossing the water park.

This "water park" was formed by the sea. Although it was dozens of miles wide, it was actually irregular. The island in the middle of the lake was only two or three miles away from the water park dock in the outer city.

At this moment, this red fire stream passed by brazenly, like a meteorite falling from the sky, and fell into the dock.

"Boom!!!"

With a loud bang, the sky and the earth shook, and the flying fire meteor blasted into the battlefield, exploding in the Roman legion that rushed over. The terrifying shock wave blew people up like waves, and blood, flesh and dust flew everywhere.

In the dust, a figure gradually appeared, like a ghost entering the world, with a body as majestic as a mountain and a body as majestic as a river and sea. He rode a whistling red rabbit, holding a Fangtian painted halberd, a two-foot iron rod, and a cold light, which frightened thousands of troops and frightened thousands of horses.
