Chapter 726
Father Xu summoned the lieutenant who was staying on the city wall to the
front and asked about the movements of the Frost Spirit army outside the city
after he returned to the city.
The Frost Spirit camp outside the west gate of Dragon City was completely
destroyed, and the principals of the Frost Spirit army must gather together to
discuss countermeasures.
As long as it is determined in which camp these people are currently gathering
in the south, east, and north, and they choose any camp where they are not
present to launch a surprise attack, the expected results can be achieved.
After some inquiries, Mr. Xu knew that the principals of the Frost Spirit Race
had gathered at the camp outside the South Gate.
In other words, at this moment, any camp outside the north gate and east gate
can be raided.
But to be cautious, a raid on the North Gate camp is the safest.
In that case, send troops!
Another raid, a lightning strike!
Elder Xu took the men and horses and galloped all the way, burning the Frost
Spirit's North City Gate camp on fire. As for the number of casualties caused
to the opponent, time is running out, and there is no time to evaluate.
In short, although the result of this battle was not as good as the raid on
the Frost Spirit's West Gate Camp, the blow to the Frost Spirit was not bad.
"This is a shame!"
When the news that the camp outside the north city gate was burned by old man
Xu led a fire to the ears of the Frost Spirit nobles, these Frost Spirit
nobles immediately exploded collectively.
"Can't compromise, siege the city!"
"Offensive day and night!"
"Tucheng!"
"The glory of God cannot be blasphemed!"
The nobles who decided to negotiate with Mr. Xu suddenly changed their minds.
If Mr. Xu knew that the Frost Spirit had planned to negotiate with him, he was
dismissed by his operation, he might regret it for a while.
After all, if you can delay time through negotiations, Mr. Xu is absolutely
unquestioned.
The advantage of the Frost Spirit is in the season of ice and snow, not in the
warm weather, especially in the hot season.
Therefore, fighting against the Frost Spirits would be the best if they could
delay the battle until summer.
It's a pity that Mr. Xu didn't know that he had such an opportunity.
Father Xu led a raid on the Frost Spirit camp in the north of the city, and
returned home in a big victory.
The aura of the military and civilians in the city rose again.
However, in the middle of the night, the Frost Spirit launched an unexpected
attack.
If it hadn't been for Mr. Xu to let him observe the movements of the Frost
Spirits day and night, he might have been caught off guard by the night
attacks of the Frost Spirits.
The old man Xu, who had been prepared for a long time, didn't let anyone make
any movement, but looked like he hadn't noticed. He waited for the Frost
Spirit to approach the city wall in large numbers before suddenly attacking.
The slings were the first to throw fire oil cans to light up the night.
Then the arrow rained, enveloping the army of savages under the city.
The unsuspecting army of Frost Spirits suffered an unprecedented blow, losing
at least thousands of people in a short period of time.
The Frost Spirit’s attack was blocked, so he could only leave the corpse and
withdraw in embarrassment.
This attack was the first time that the Frost Spirits had not even climbed the
wall since they started the siege, and they had suffered the most tragic loss.
They didn't even cause a little loss to the guarding father Xu.
"Is this to be funny?"
Father Xu waited for the Frost Spirit to retreat, with a look of wonder on his
face.
If the Frost Spirits keep attacking the city in this way, then it will be
impossible for the Frost Spirits to have any influence on them.
But obviously, this night scene was an accident.
...
After a short and failed night attack, the Frost Spirit fell silent.
Until dawn, the Frost Spirit did not move any more.
But when the sky was bright, the attack from the Frost Spirit came as
promised.
This time, the Frost Spirit was different from usual. Instead of climbing the
city wall, he focused on attacking the four gates of Dragon City.
The sturdy Frost Spirit clansmen carried the huge wood and hit the city gate
time and time again.
Although the gates of Dragon City are strong, they will be breached sooner or
later under such an impact.
Upstairs of the city gate, the rolling wood and stone were continuously
smashed, and fire oil was splashed in an attempt to kill all the Frost Spirits
who hit the city gate.
However, the other party seemed to be a tendon, no matter how many people
died, they were still hitting the city gate regardless.
"Master Hou, Dongmen is about to be unable to hold it!"
Most of the day passed, and unfortunate news came from the East Gate guard.
Old man Xu took a deep breath and could only order the city gate to be
completely blocked.
In this way, even if the Frost Spirit broke through the city gate, there was
no way to rush into the city.
But in this way, the old man Xu in the city would not even want to leave the
city through the east gate.
And this is not the worst.
The worst thing is that once the four city gates have to be blocked, then
Dragon City becomes a trapped city, they can only passively bear the attack of
the Frost Spirit tribe, and there is no possibility of counterattack at any
time.
Obviously, the Frost Spirit clan had this idea.
"Master, you can't let the Frost Spirit Race go on like this. Once the four
city gates are not protected, we will be completely trapped in the city!"
"It's not necessarily!"
Old man Xu smiled, waved his hand suddenly, and said, "Send my order and block
all the city gates!"
Want to block yourself in the city?
It's just kidding!
You Shuangling can think of digging a hole to attack the city, then, isn't it
reasonable for me to dig a hole from the city to the outside?
Soldiers who, deception also.
Father Xu thought of the tactics of digging tunnels, naturally he never
worried about the city gate being blocked.
When the Frost Spirit thought they had been trapped in the city, at the
critical moment, he could give them a big surprise.
Father Xu had a calculation here, and naturally blocked the remaining three
city gates.
Seeing that the four city gates were blocked, the Frost Spirit tribe had to
retreat in embarrassment after breaking through the city gates.
"Tuoba Aofeng, hurry up, summon people and dig four tunnels leading out of the
city!"
"Digging a tunnel?"
Tuoba Aofeng was stunned, and then he understood what Old Man Xu meant.
The city gate is blocked, but they are not necessarily trapped in the city.
"The subordinates are going to summon the staff!"
Tuoba Aofeng understood Father Xu's meaning, and immediately summoned the
staff.
Although the Northern Barbarians are not good at digging holes, there are
professional craftsmen in the city who can give them pointers. They don't need
to know how to dig holes, they just need to be able to work.
After all, digging holes can be considered laborious work.
Coincidentally, the Northern Barbarians never lack strength.
...
When the four gates of Dragon City were sealed, the Frost Spirit tribe outside
the city chose to leave the camp for the first time, instead of retreating,
but heading towards Pingman City.
The news reached the ears of Mr. Xu. It was Mr. Xu, who was extremely calm,
and he was a little flustered at the moment.
The Frost Spirits were clearly prepared to concentrate their forces and take
down Pingman City first.
Once Pingman City was conquered, it was inevitable that the city would fall
when the Northern Barbarian army gathered outside the Dragon City.
