Chapter 1206 The Last Battle (Part 1)
On the central street of Pegasus City, this is where the granary is located. The floor is paved with bricks and stones. All items that can be replaced by stone do not use wood to prevent the Zhurong disaster.
Not only that, in order to prevent the enemy's spies in the city from waiting for opportunities to cause damage, a patrol team of 3,000 people is always on hand. This number is definitely a lot for the entire army. Even at the most critical moment, only half of them are mobilized. .
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the area near the granary is impregnable. Even sparrows trying to steal grains will be shot down. However, in the face of unknown enemies, no matter how many people there are, they will not be able to detect them.
The soldiers stationed near the granary did not immediately notice that the plants under their feet suddenly became vibrant and green. As time passed, many small green plants grew in the gaps between the bricks and stones. The grass comes, and it changes almost every quarter of an hour.
The problem was eventually discovered, but not because the "tenacious" grass underfoot was noticed, but because the men and horses carrying the grain suddenly discovered that the grain in the grain bag had taken root and sprouted.
Even the grains that have taken off their hulls are ordinary. According to common sense, it is impossible for them to take root and sprout. However, the strange thing is that these grains that have taken off their hulls have actually taken root and sprouted. It is a bright green color. No matter how you look at it, it is magical.
At first, some people thought that the soldiers guarding the granary had switched the contract, which naturally caused controversy. However, this matter should not be underestimated. It was quickly reported to all levels. By the time several captains knew what happened, it had basically spread throughout the city. Things happened, all kinds of rumors were flying in the sky, and people were in chaos.
At first, people didn't really believe this rumor. It's completely beyond their understanding that shelled grains can still take root and sprout, okay?
Everyone came to the granary to check it out. In the current granary, you don’t have to go in. From a distance, you can see green vegetation, like a virgin forest. Many people think this is a miracle and kneel down to pray for blessings.
However, when night falls, this dense "forest" finally reveals its fangs, but at the beginning, it was brilliant and beautiful.
Under the evaporation of the vitality of the plant elves, all the green plants seemed to have been enlightened by immortals, growing rapidly, blooming with gentle and bright green light, illuminating the whole world as if it were day, no, it was "green day".
However, the grass elves are not powerful. Their life cycle is extremely short. They live and die quickly. As the end of their lives approaches, they will become more and more dangerous.
But how could ordinary people know this? Instead, they thought it was a miracle, and brought their families to worship all night long.
The accident broke out at the moment when the green light was the strongest. The entire granary turned into a huge torch, with black smoke billowing and red flames rising. It was unknown how many innocent people died as a result.
Once the flames broke out, there were countless vegetation elves as starters or fuels, and there was no sign of stopping the fire. The fire grew bigger and bigger, and could be seen in a radius of dozens of miles.
There is no wind tonight, but a flame of this level will spontaneously spread. Soon, the city is in turmoil, and everyone is fleeing from the fire. The chaos is beyond words.
Once chaos arose, it was difficult to suppress it. Especially when King Yong, who had been concerned about the changes in the city, saw this situation, he could not let it go. He ordered the army to attack at night in order to win with one blow.
Internal and external troubles came all at once, and Wu Yi was unconscious again. He didn't even have a backbone. Many people were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and there were even many people who were in the way of the wind. Their thoughts gradually changed.
Outside the southern city gate, the torch is like a giant dragon, winding endlessly, giving a sense of oppression and making people tremble with fear.
Under the dark night, cold arrows were fired one after another, hurting the enemy and themselves. The enemy had already begun to attack the city.
Rolling logs, beating stones, rolling oil, arrows, and the resistance on the top of the wall were also very fierce. After all, they had been holding on for many days. Although the fire in the granary was large, it did not burn here, and many people still wanted to resist.
The west city wall is relatively deserted. The defense line is among the endless mountains outside. King Yong has not even broken through the outer defense line. How could he reach this city wall.
There are three to two thousand enemy troops below, but they are also useless. They are used as a feint attack to contain the troops.
However, these men who were ordered to pretend to attack may not have thought that they would become Wu Yi's breakthrough point. The supernatural power left in the body of the clay figure had not been cleared away by the body, but if the situation changed like this, Wu Yi had no time to kill. Okay, this time King Yong has all the elites coming out, which is a good opportunity to turn the situation around.
Therefore, even if it may lead to a conflict between the human order and the magic power of immortality, Wu Yi insists on taking the initiative to attack with his "sick body" (in the eyes of his subordinates), regaining control of the military, and gathering all the elites in the city to use all the resources he can All the troops and horses were mobilized.
To the west of Pegasus City are endless high mountains, which are difficult to climb. However, in the main battle, some important passes are basically in Wu Yi's hands, and there are no enemies to hinder him. Therefore, he captured the outside of the city with lightning speed. After feinting to attack the enemy, Wu Yi traveled all night and night, making a big circle and raiding King Yong's base camp from behind.
There is no doubt that this is another big gamble. If you lose, your body will be gone. If you win, it will completely open up a catastrophe and achieve an unimaginable status.
Before the expedition, not many people knew the destination of the trip, but as the road ahead became clearer, no matter how stupid they were, they should know the destination of the trip. However, there were still a few who could really guess Wu Yi's thoughts.
However, these are not important anymore. For soldiers, the most important thing is obedience.
In order to complete the battle, King Yong's elite troops came out in full force. If it weren't for the pleading of his subordinates, King Yong originally planned to keep only three thousand men and horses around him. Now, there are about tens of thousands of them, all personal soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is as much as improvised. The soldiers and horses are very different.
As for Wu Yi, who was running at starry night, there were fifteen thousand people around him, which was slightly more, but the difference was not obvious.
Now, King Yong didn't know that Wu Yi was coming at starry night. Naturally, he didn't know about the people around Wu Yi. Wu Yi took the initiative. He also didn't know how many people around King Yong. Although he had estimated it, he had already done it. Prepare to defeat the strong with the weak.
This is a game of information asymmetry. As time goes by, King Yong will surely know the changes in the resistance in the city. Therefore, Wu Yi is racing against time and must launch a surprise attack before King Yong knows the news.
Therefore, even though the men and horses were exhausted after running hundreds of miles overnight, Wu Yi did not let them rest, but directly ordered the attack.
The boundless sleepiness aroused their anger, and each of them rushed forward with bloodshot eyes, and Wu Yi did not lag behind them.
