Chapter 1177: Beast Tide and Bombing Camp (2 in 1)(1/2)

It's the sunset reflecting the sky again.

The siege that lasted for a whole day came to an end as night fell.

Although the city wall that was leaking everywhere was full of holes, it still stood firm. The mountains of corpses and blood-stained earth were piled up at the foot of the city wall, telling the strength of the butcher in hell.

Kagil's courage only reflects the Longxiong Army's desire to kill.

The entire day, the Mauryan army took turns to fight and launched uninterrupted attacks, but was defeated by the Longxiang Army. Especially after the artillery cooled down, the catapult suffered heavy losses. Without the cover of long-range firepower, the casualties of the Mauryan army increased in a geometric multiple.

The Longxiong Army soldiers on the top of the city were like a group of butchers, efficiently and capable of harvesting waves of invading enemies. When they were tired, they only left for half an hour to rest, and then they were full of energy again.

Under Bai Qi's training, the soldiers of the Longxiang Army had already adapted to high-intensity continuous combat.

Under the night, Kagil, with a ferocious face, led his troops to evacuate the front line, and his back looked very lonely and a little desolate. This time, when he took the initiative to ask for battle, Kagil did not do anything. With the character of the Peacock King, the subsequent battle was no longer possible with Kagil, and he even had to be ignored in the army.

When they returned to the tent, the other generals were not happy about gloating.

During the day they were also watching the battle in the high ground. To be honest, Cargill had done a very good job and maintained the morale of the army under such difficult circumstances.

If they were on the way, I'm afraid that's the case.

I can only say that the Longxiang Army was indeed not a false reputation, so it poured a basin of cold water on them.

As soon as Kagil came back, the military order of the Peacock King came. "Kargil was not effective in fighting and was trusted by the king. Then, he immediately removed his military post and was detained awaiting trial."

During the whole process, Kagil was taken away by the cold guards before he even saw the Peacock King.

The other generals are sympathetic, but no one will plead for Kagil. Not to mention that they may be scolded by the king, if the king says lightly, "Since you plead for Kagil, you will come tomorrow!"

That would be awful.

After a day of observation, no one would think that attacking Naga Castle was a beautiful woman.

…………

June 10th, the second day of the Battle of Naga City.

The unlucky guy selected by the Peacock King led his troops to launch a new round of attacks against Naga City.

After consuming a wave, the fierce attack of the Mauryan army on the second day finally achieved a little success, attacking the city head and even taking down a whole section of the city wall for a while.

However, the soldiers of the Longxiang Army were extremely brave and fought hard. After suffering huge casualties, they miraculously regained their positions.

Even so, by about 5 pm, the entire line of defense was already shaking.

The artillery lost its ammunition and was completely silent.

This allowed the Mauryan Dynasty to see hope of breaking the city, but time did not stand on their side. Soon, night fell again, aborting the fierce battle.

Even so, the Peacock King was still very happy.

"Tomorrow, I must take down Naga City tomorrow!" The Peacock King was both excited and anxious. Seeing that one-third of the national war had passed, he could not wait.

Fortunately, as long as you capture a battle, you can form a chain reaction and quickly expand the results of the battle.

In the past two days, the Dragon Horse Army has not left the city to drown and continues to be a "head-repulsed turtle" so that the Peacock King can attack Naga City with peace of mind.

Because the wilderness is already full of the eyeliners of the Mauryan Dynasty, once the Longxiang Army leaves the city, the Mauryan King will immediately find out, and eliminate the possibility of the Longxiang Army's sneak attack.

If the nearby Longxiang Army dares to go out of the city to reinforce, it will only seek death.

But on this night, things happened.

…………

Naiga City, the city top.

In the night, Xiao Chaogui, accompanied by his personal guards, came to the city wall to inspect the patrol duty.

Looking at the enemy camp outside the city, the lights were faintly visible, Xiao Chaogui looked complicated. After paying more than 15,000 sacrifices, the Fifth Legion finally completed the task assigned by the command headquarters.

"Tomorrow, reinforcements should be here?" Xiao Chaogui looked into the distance.

Although Daxia did not have a second army in this area, the saying of reinforcements was suspicious, but Xiao Chaogui still trusted the commander very much and would never speak out.

"Maybe, the king is going to summon the imperial guards in the royal city."

As a senior general in the army, Xiao Chaogui still has some understanding of this matter.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chaogui was very energetic. After two days of suppression, it was time to fight back with great pleasure. Otherwise, it would be too frustrating.

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

…………

At the same time, in the wilderness, a monster's nest.

The nest is only fifteen kilometers away from the Mauryan army camp. The monsters that emerged sporadically were solved by the Mauryan scouts, and there was no so-called beast tide.

In fact, five days ago, a Daxia scout soldier was quietly lurking near the monster's nest, waiting for the arrival of the beast tide.

Hard work pays off. After waiting for five days, things finally took a turn for the better.

In the early morning of the 11th, black smoke suddenly appeared in the nest that had been calm, which was a sign of the outbreak of the beast tide. The black smoke rose into the air, which was more than 30 meters high, indicating that this was a big beast tide.

Such strange phenomena immediately attracted the attention of the Daxia scouts.

"Hurry up, wake up, the beast tide is coming!" The soldiers watching the night quickly woke up their companions.

The captain woke up at the first time and was greatly energetic. He looked up at the black smoke in the distance, showing an ecstatic expression, "It's God who really helps us, this is an unprecedented tide of beasts."

"Quick, notify the command center immediately!"

As the captain said, he solemnly took out a talisman, which was the [Soul-Inducing Talisman] sent by Bai Qi. The talisman can take effect only if it is used within five miles of the nest.

Otherwise, no one dares to use it.

In Bai Qi's arrangement, the beast tide can only be regarded as a surprise weapon due to the uncertainty of time. Even Bai Qi didn't know how effective this talisman could play.

If there was no beast tide today, Ouyang Shuo would summon the imperial guards of the royal city to rescue Naga City. But the beast tide appeared on the last night. I can only say that luck is really on the side of Daxia.

It was no wonder that the captain was ecstatic. He knew so much that the beast tide came in so timely that without any hesitation, the captain tore open the [Soul-Starting Talisman].

After "brushing", the talisman turned into a white light, like lightning, throwing towards the black smoke in the distance, and the message came. As soon as the white light penetrated into the black smoke, it was like a catalyst, but when the black pillar that was already evaporated, it "walked" and instantly became taller and thicker.

In a blink of an eye, it turned into a three hundred meters high pillar of the sky.

When the scouts saw it, they were so surprised that they couldn't stop. Even though they were far away, they could feel the fierce murderous intent and the beast roars emitted by the black pillar, which made people's scalp numb.

"Oh my God, how many monsters should be there?"

As scouts, they are active in the wilderness all year round and are no strangers to monster nests, but they have never seen black smoke with a height of more than fifty meters.

The black smoke that is three hundred meters high is scary to think about.

Soon, the black smoke dissipated like the wind, and monsters with ferocious faces appeared.

From a distance, there were only thirty winged beasts hovering in the air. The entire monster nest was flooded by the beast tide, and there was no living creature.

"Fast, launch a signal flare!"

The captain endured his fear and quickly ordered.

"promise!"

In an instant, several signal flares rose up and cut through the dark night sky.

The beast tide that just appeared was worried that there was no target to attack, but when they saw the signal flares that took off. They rushed towards them like they saw prey without thinking.

A distance away, you can hear the vibration of the beast tide running, just like the earth shaking the mountain.

"Get on the horse!"

Without the command of the captain, the scout quickly got on the horse and evacuated quickly. Judging from the direction of its evacuation, it was the location of the Mauryan Army camp.

This is called "the disaster is inducing the eastward direction".

In order to prevent the beast tide from losing its target, the scouts must fire several signal flares every once in a while, which are like beacons guiding the way, leading the beasts' noses.

During this period, we also encountered night-time scouts of the Mauryan Dynasty, but in the face of the vast beast tide, these scouts quickly dissipated like waves, unable to stir up a ripples.

The earth-shaking sound of running and roaring in the beasts completely broke the darkness of the night.

In less than two hours, the beast tide came near the camp of the Mauryan Dynasty. Finally, the patrol troops on the periphery were noticed and rushed to the camp to warn them.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

At this time, the camp was quiet without a trace of noise. It was the time when the soldiers were sleeping hardest. Even the soldiers who were patrolling the night were yawning, preparing to survive the last dark night before dawn.

When the alarm sounded, the barracks exploded.

In this case, if one cannot handle it well, let alone arrive at the monster attack, it is afraid that it will be in danger of bombing the camp immediately.

This is by no means alarmist.

The military camp is an authentic and stern place. The traditional Chinese military rules are called "Seventeen Regulations and Fifty-Four Deads". Those who serve in the army live a nervous life. You can imagine the mental depression over the years.

In addition, the army is of strict hierarchy and closed management. Only officers are abused and soldiers are ignorant, and they can be led by the military discipline. Before the war, everyone's life and death are uncertain, and they don't know whether they can come back alive tomorrow. Everyone is on the verge of mental collapse.

At this time, as long as there is a little turmoil, it may be just a soldier screaming in a nightmare, which can detonate the hysterical crazy atmosphere in the camp. The soldiers completely get rid of the shackles of military discipline. Some people pick up the guys who have been wronged and revenge, hunt down officers, enemies, and comrades whom they don’t know, and only the bodies on the ground were left on the next day.

The army of the Mauryan Dynasty, under the suppression of the Mauryan King, had a strict military discipline and was highly nervous, and the soldiers were highly nervous. In addition, the heavy losses in the two days of siege made the city worse.

Especially the summoned imperial guards of the royal city were constantly used as cannon fodder for two days, but they were helpless. From generals to ordinary soldiers, they were full of resentment towards the Mauryan Dynasty.
To be continued...
