Chapter 563
Such an important battle.
A military advisor who can be brought out by Zhang Zhenguo to join the army on an expedition obviously cannot be a mediocre person.
On weekdays, Zhang Zhenguo also trusts him very much.
But why is this time different.
The game of civilization is really too big.
One wrong step, even an old bird that has developed for decades, will still collapse.
At this time, Zhang Zhenguo, who was standing on the verge of collapse, could imagine how anxious his entire mood was.
After a while of thinking about it.
Zhang Zhenguo gritted his teeth, and finally chose to believe the military advisor's decision, and then ordered someone to sound the horn of retreat.
The enemy retreated quickly.
At this moment, on the top of the wall, Guo Zhen, whose bronze armor was already stained with blood, let out a deep breath.
Then shouted...
"Clean up the corpse, don't let your guard down!"
Anyway, the first day was finally over.
The 500 garrison of Xiyuan City arrived at Gaoling City before dark.
On the contrary, the wolf cavalry led by Luo Ji was long overdue.
The next morning, I finally arrived.
During this period, Luo Jishun discovered a weakness of the wolf cavalry.
That is, compared with cavalry, their stamina is slightly less.
This cavalry unit is obviously not good at carrying out support battles that are too long.
It is precisely because of this that I had to stop and rest for a while.
Therefore, we have only arrived at Gaoling City until now.
After entering the city, Luo Ji, His Majesty the Emperor, arrived, and naturally he directly presided over the overall situation.
After learning from Guo Zhen's mouth that the other party sent heavy troops to attack the city as soon as they came up.
Luo Ji's brows suddenly furrowed.
It seems that Zhang Zhenguo's determination to attack him is quite firm.
According to their current military strength in Gaoling City, no matter how you think about it, it is hard to beat them.
And at this point in time, the battle report from the front line might have just been delivered to Mirror City.
The others are not in Mingjing City, so Guo Jia will handle the military affairs on his behalf.
But the problem is that, in the current situation, even after Guo Jia received the battle report, he immediately asked Luo Cheng to lead 500 cavalry to come to support.
It would take two to three days to get to Gaoling City while maintaining combat power.
Subsequent infantry reinforcements were even slower.
Just as Luo Ji was thinking about it, the alarm bell on the top of the Gaoling City Wall was quickly sounded.
The enemy is attacking again!
"His Majesty?!"
I felt Guo Zhen's inquiring gaze.
Luo Ji spoke decisively...
"Stay on the wall and hold on for one more round."
In the case of inferior strength, their biggest support now is the city wall of this Gaoling City.
At this moment, there is absolutely no reason to go out of the city to meet them.
Above the wall, the battle was fierce.
Luo Ji didn't go far while standing under the city wall.
You can also command the soldiers to resist the city gate.
After all, his own BUFF is here.
As long as others are here, they can help the soldiers of the defending force to boost the morale and improve their combat power.
At this time, Luo Ji had already experienced a lot of wind and waves.
The whole person was very calm.
In comparison, Li Min, who followed him all the way to support, was restless in his heart.
"Your Majesty, why don't the end general lead the wolf cavalry out of the city to meet them!"
Hearing this, Luo Ji shook his head inwardly. Li Min, who was only nineteen years old, was still too young.
"The total number of troops on the opposite side exceeds ours by more than 2,000. It doesn't make sense for you to take more than 200 wolf cavalry out of the city to meet."
Li Min, who is now eager to make a contribution, is obviously unable to calm down after Luo Ji's proposal was rejected.
Uncontrollably, he stepped back and forth behind the city gate.
Luo Ji, who had a panoramic view of this scene, realized more clearly that Li Min still lacked tempering.
Just listen to him speak again...
"As a cavalry general, you should learn to wait for the opportunity calmly."
Hearing this, Li Min's movements were obviously stagnant, and then he put on a humbly taught appearance.
"I will be taught at the end."
Time passed by, and the battle of defending the city was more intense than he expected.
The city gate below was shattered by the enemy's siege vehicle, and Luo Ji thought several times that it was about to be breached.
However, it turns out that the quality of the things made by goblin civilization, except for some easy failures that cut corners, is still unremarkable.
The gate of Gaoling City is surprisingly tenacious at this moment.
In the face of so many heavy hits by the enemy siege vehicles, he was stunned and did not fall.
A battle of defending the city lasted until sunset, and the unwilling Zhang Zhenguo on the opposite side blew the clarion call for retreat.
The military advisor standing by the side saw this scene in his eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It was only the second day, but their king's mood became even more impatient.
Just now he remonstrated again, hoping that the king would withdraw his troops rationally.
But it was rejected by the king.
Compared with yesterday, this wave, their siege momentum has become a bit more ferocious.
This change gave Zhang Zhenguo hope.
He wants to capture the city in front of him in one breath today.
However, the fact is that they have been defeated until the evening. Although they have attacked the wall several times, they have not been able to completely occupy it.
After all, how could such a majestic city be broken in just a day or two when their siege equipment was completely suppressed by the opposite side?
This kind of battle must be done step by step.
Delusions can be achieved overnight, and eager for quick success is the first step towards failure.
But the king at this time obviously couldn't listen to his advice.
Shen Chen sighed, and a trace of disappointment flashed in the soldier's eyes.
At the same time, in Gaoling City...
Looking at Guo Zhen who came down from the wall.
Luo Ji's pupils narrowed.
"Guo Zhen, you are injured."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, it's just a minor injury."
Looking down at the injury on his body, Guo Zhen didn't pay much attention to it.
After all, his usual style of play is a bit of ferocity that trades injuries for injuries.
He's used to injuries of this magnitude.
"Who hurt you?"
Guo Zhen's injuries were obviously slashed by a sword.
Luo Ji didn't think that ordinary enemy soldiers were capable of slashing and wounding this fierce general under his command.
Facing Luo Ji's question, Guo Zhen spoke quite simply...
"I'm ashamed to say that the stab wound on the last general's body was given by an enemy general, and the opponent's strength is indeed not bad. "
Zhang Zhenguo came to kill with such a battle, and it was not uncommon to bring a fierce general.
After confirming the situation, Luo Ji first called a military doctor to treat Guo Zhen's wound.
Then the whole person fell into contemplation again...
"The situation is dangerous now. The opponent's siege force is fierce. Gaoling City was almost destroyed today, and it may not be able to defend it on the third day."
"Instead of waiting until the opposite side has withdrawn and rested and attacked the city tomorrow, it's better for my troops to take a risk..."
