Reborn as a fiend statue

According to common sense, there are two ways to besiege a city: besieging the enemy with a defensive barrier and besieging it on all sides.

Besieging the city means surrounding the city on three sides, deliberately leaving a gap and setting up an ambush halfway.

This kind of siege method can shake the defenders' determination to fight to the death, induce the defenders to leave the fortified city, and be annihilated in mobile warfare.

Attacking on all sides means attacking from all directions on the surface, but actually attacking one side, and the other groups of soldiers and horses are used as feints to attack, making it difficult for the defenders to distinguish between true and false, and scattering the troops defending the city on one side.

Due to the special terrain of Jimmy City, even with sufficient troops, it is impossible to carry out the above two methods of siege, and can only attack head-on.

Yuyi now faces huge problems such as insufficient siege equipment and a serious shortage of troops.

It is almost impossible to break through Jimmy City through conventional methods.

Only by relying on unconventional tactics can there be any possibility of victory.

Both sides were mortal soldiers, but they gave Yu Yi a chance.

Without supernatural powers, he can still use scientific methods.

When Yu Yi thought of this, he immediately entered the handsome tent, took out paper and pen, and started writing and drawing on them.

"Adjutant, come in."

"What are your orders, General?"

"Go and build all the devices in the picture. The more, the better."

"Yes, General."

The adjutant received a large pile of drawings and hurried out to complete the task.

Yu Yi did not let the army tentatively attack Jimmy City, but devoted himself to large-scale construction.

The soldiers in the camp are busy building various equipment.

Jimmy, who was guarding the city, also noticed the movements in the red camp, but didn't understand what the other side was doing?

Could it be that they are building siege equipment?

Facing a city like Jimmy City, siege equipment is not easy to use and can be easily defended.

It's not like he never thought of sending some troops out of the city to test.

But he also considered that Yu Yi might be deliberately planning to lure him out of the city to fight.

Jimmy suppressed his curiosity and ignored it.

He just asked the generals who defended the city to guard against a sneak attack by the red side.

The red team is focusing on construction, while the blue team is holding on to the city.

The two sides maintained a strange balance, which greatly disappointed the nobles who originally expected a war.

"Hey, what is the red army doing? Are they preparing to compete with the blue army for a long time?"

"Impossible, not to mention that the agreed time is only one month, even if it is indefinite, the red side cannot consume the blue side.

There are more than 100,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of war horses, and the amount of food and grass they consume every day is astronomical."

"That's right, the blue side is holding on to the city and has supplies of grain and grass in the rear area, but the red side is rootless and cannot possibly consume it."

"Huh? Why did the red party get a lot of cloth and baskets?"

"The basket can be used to hold stones and rolled logs. I really don't know what the purpose of those cloths is."

"It's not winter now, and the cloth can't be used to keep warm."

"Haha... In the past, we used crystal cannons and mage troops to attack from a distance, and the defenders put up barriers to resist.

It’s really novel to see a group of ordinary armies fighting now.”

"It's novel, but it's boring. Ordinary armies have too few means, and the two sides don't have close combat.

It's like watching the daily life of two armies, it's too boring."

"That's right, I almost dozed off when I saw it."

"The red side is so cowardly that they don't even organize a wave of exploratory attacks. At any rate, they organize thousands of people to try to attack the city and get familiar with the blue side's fighting style."

"Well, isn't Mr. Yu a parallel importer? Maybe he doesn't know how to lead troops in war?"

"Haha, it's really possible."

"Shut up, I mean,

Brother Yi is not what you said." Luo Ya was so angry that her face turned red and she yelled loudly.

Facing the princess's reprimand, the nobles shut up one after another.

In the past, they could do without the bird princess, but not now.

The princess controls the two core territories of Youshui Territory and Sunset Territory, and has considerable authority.

Her power in the Kingdom of Holy Angels is only slightly lower than that of Prime Minister Adem, but much stronger than the other nobles.

In the illusion, Yu Yi carried out his plan in an orderly manner without any panic.

On the contrary, the longer Jimmy, who was guarding the city, waited, the more anxious he became.

Late at night on the fifth day of the stalemate, Jimmy finally couldn't help but dispatch an army of ten thousand people to launch a surprise attack on the red camp, intending to test the red's true strength.

The nobles watching the battle had a flash of disappointment in their eyes.

Jimmy can't see the red team's layout when he is in the game, but he can see it clearly as an outsider.

Yu Yi had already prepared a tight formation, waiting for Blue's 10,000-strong army to take the bait.

An army of ten thousand people is basically gone and never comes back.

As expected, the Blue Army's 10,000-strong army was surrounded by 100,000-strong army.

Jimmy wants to rescue his legion, but he is unable to do so.

He was afraid that Yu Yi was encircling the area for reinforcements, so he did not dare to attack rashly.

Although ten thousand blue troops tried their best to break through, facing ten times the enemy, it was still in vain.

In the end, they were all hanged, their bodies piled up in mountains, and rivers of blood flowed outside the camp.

Jimmy's first attempt was fruitless and even cost an army, so he never dared to try it rashly again.

Choose to huddle in the city and be ready.

Faced with this situation, some nobles couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Sigh... I thought Jimmy was so powerful, but it turns out it's nothing more than that!"

"Don't be ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with Jimmy's decision. Although the red team has fewer people than the blue team and is at a disadvantage in siege, it does not mean that it will definitely lose.

Moreover, Mr. Fish has been tinkering with strange things, so Jimmy can’t help but find out.”

"That's right. Even if he were in Jimmy's position as a general, he would make the same choice."

"The loss of a legion is considered a small defeat, and the stain cannot be erased."

"It really doesn't hurt to stand and talk. I asked you to command the 200,000 troops. What would you think about Mr. Yu's non-attack strategy?"

"Observing the confrontation between the two armies from God's perspective, I naturally think that Jimmy did something wrong.

If you were in the game, you wouldn't think so.

Although Jimmy's decision is not the most correct, it is the most appropriate.

He used the price of one legion to test the red side's combat power and tactics, which is very cost-effective."

"Brother, you are right. How can anyone win victory without sacrifice on the battlefield?"

"Isn't the price too high for a legion of tens of thousands of soldiers to test?"

"War is so cruel. Do you think fighting it is easy?"

"In the past, every time a war started, many nobles would blindly command from the rear. Now that we see a real battlefield simulation, we should understand how cruel war is?

The victory in every war is achieved with the lives of countless soldiers, and is not simply data that stays on paper."

"Indeed, after this trial, Jimmy has understood how powerful the red side is. As long as he chooses to defend the city firmly, he will win 100% of the time."

"Haha, the loss of 10,000 from the 200,000-strong army is nothing to Blue."

…………

The next half month was a boring confrontation.

Neither party tested the other again, and everything was peaceful.

The noble lords and rich ladies on the outside almost fell asleep while waiting.

Some people can't help but feel lonely and choose to let go

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Give up watching the simulated matchup and run to do other things.

Day twenty-five.

Yuyi will prepare everything.

Under his command, the Red Army's 100,000-strong army set up camp and advanced toward Jimmy City.

"Look, the Red Army has finally moved. Even the barracks have been demolished and they are preparing for a decisive battle."

A nobleman shouted excitedly.

Many dozing nobles and wealthy ladies were awakened and rushed to the sand table one by one to watch the battle.

"Wow... It's true. We finally waited for the decisive battle. I wonder which side will win?"

"Needless to say, it must be the Blue Army. Both sides are similar in terms of combat strength, but the Blue Army is defending the city and has the right time, place and people. I can't imagine how Jimmy could lose this war."

"Haha... That's not necessarily the case. The Red Army has been making arrangements. They have brought all those strange things with them, which will definitely be of great use."

"Haha... the show is about to begin, does anyone want to place a bet? I have opened the market, and the odds of the red and blue sides are 3:1. If you want to place a bet, hurry up."

"I...I want to bet 10,000 gold coins on the blue team to win."

"I also buy the Blue Army, fifty thousand gold coins."

"I bet on the Red Army, ten thousand gold coins."

"Hiss...you really dare to bet on the red side, aren't you afraid that you will lose even your underwear?"

"Hey, you can't control it."

…………

In fantasy.

The red army advanced beyond the shooting range of the blue army and stopped.

"Haha...Mr. Fish, you are finally here. It really made me wait." Jimmy was very excited.

After waiting for a long time, the flowers all withered.

"Mr. Jimmy, I've been waiting for a long time. This is a formal contest between the two sides. How could I not come?" Yu Yi smiled and waved his hand.

"Prepare to attack!"

"Yes, General."

The Red Army did not set up ladders to attack the city, but instead dragged out large baskets tied with canvas.

The soldiers used torches to set fire to the contents of the basket.

The canvas is like an inflated balloon, inflating rapidly.

What Yuyi uses is a hot air balloon.

There are many flying equipment in Tianyuan Continent, such as warships, airships, machine beasts, etc.

However, those flying equipment are all driven by formations and are things on the metaphysical side.

There is very little on the science side, almost zero.

Even the ammunition used by gunners is compressed from various elements and is not chemical gunpowder.

Under the command of their respective commanders, the soldiers put a large number of black balls into baskets and took off with the hot air balloon.

"Damn it, why can you use cloth to lift a basket into the air and carry people on it? Is this cheating?"

"It's incredible. What's the principle of this?"

"It should have something to do with the torch burning above the basket."

"It's so amazing. This is the first time I've seen an object that can fly without formation."

"That's right, that's right. You really deserve to be Mr. Fish, he's so awesome."

"The red soldiers can attack Jimmy City from the air, and the blue army is in danger."

"Sigh... I don't know if the blue army can withstand attacks from the air?"

"Haha, I really look forward to a miracle happening."

"Originally I was not optimistic about the Red Army, but now I am full of expectations for them."

"Haha, I had the foresight to be optimistic about the Red Army from the beginning."

"Don't be too happy too early. Even if the Red Army can fly, it's not certain who will win and who will lose in a real fight."

"Anyway, I'm optimistic about the Red Army."
