Before nightfall, many people were trapped in it and could not see clearly that the number of Northern Wei cavalry arrived first. The dark and thick dusty atmosphere was like a prelude to a sandstorm.

Many generals in the cavalry immediately discovered that the atmosphere here was a bit strange. They smelled the strong bloody smell in the turbulent river water ahead, and looked at Zhongli City, which was still calm at this time, their somewhat lazy faces gradually became serious.

There must be big problems with this.

And in such a war, problems mean the life and death of many people.

The rear of the cavalry were chariots and horse-drawn carriages.

These chariots and horse-drawn carriages are all military supplies, with the vast majority of them accounting for the same amount of food and grass.

Because there was no decent battle along the way, and no large number of Southern Dynasties troops were found, these chariots and horse-drawn carriages did not deliberately maintain their formation and gradually stopped on a large open space behind the cavalry.

The first infantry that arrived in the rear filled the gaps between these chariots and horses, and then a large number of large-scale ordnance and heavy armored soldiers arrived.

A large number of ordnances as tall as a ladder but thicker brought a strong sense of oppression to the Northern Wei soldiers below.

Especially several complete "rock jumpers", this is the first time that the Seiko Shop under the Seiko Shop of King Yuanying of Zhongshan was invested on the battlefield. This catapult car is different from most crossbow-type catapults in the Northern Wei Dynasty. It uses a winch to lift heavy objects. The moment the bullet rope throws objects, the heavy objects at one end also fall sharply, which brings a stronger shooting ability. The ordinary catapult car projected only eighty or ninety kilograms of heavy stones, and it shoots about a hundred steps, but the new catapult car put into the battlefield this time has more than doubled the range, and the heavy stones that can be projected exceed 150 kilograms.

The only flaw of this catapult is its hugeness, and it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to reset after some winches are dismantled. Therefore, it has been used as fixed military ordnance in some heavy cities in the Northern Wei Dynasty. For this long journey, each catapult car requires at least 250 more sergeants to be dragged with rolling wood and war horses to advance.

For such a large army, war horses and enough manpower are not a problem, the difficulty lies only in the terrain.

This huge ordnance can only be used to marches in a flat land, and it is impossible to cross a steep land. Even for ordinary cavalry, you can walk on some river valleys and hills on flat ground. When dragging this huge ordnance, you must be extremely careful to prevent it from capsizing.

If you fall down, it will not be as simple as killing some sergeants. The lives of some ordinary sergeants cannot be compared with the value of such a giant ordnance.

When these huge armies brought with the army during a long journey, like displaying the miracle of the Northern Wei Dynasty, when their huge bodies blocked the last rays of the Western sky and their huge shadows enveloped many soldiers and chariots, Xi Ruyu, the commander of the Northern Wei Dynasty, on the particularly wide and heavy chariot, asked the military advisor beside him, "How are you going to start?"

"Breaking the city wall and laying floating objects start at the same time."

The military advisor looked at the north wall of Zhongli, which was gradually shrouded in darkness, and looked at the Southern Dynasty people who were still standing like javelins. His voice was slightly cold: "Their morale is not bad now. I want to break their morale first, use weapons to directly break the north wall, smash their city wall, kill some people, and make them lose the benefits of the city wall. I see if they still have morale."

Xi Ruyu was sure that his military advisor was the same as he thought, and he was even more sure that his mentality was not a problem at this time.

"Then start."

He nodded unusually simply and said.

Several severe but not loud military orders sounded, and then more military orders were connected like a tide.

Before the main army of the Northern Wei army could completely stop, the more than 30,000 vanguard troops in front that had been silent for a long time seemed to be beaten by many invisible whips and all started to move.

Accompanied by countless shouts, large areas of space were empty, giving up the passage to the main army behind.

The sound waves and the breath of the army when they moved seemed to form a substance, and waves of heat in the air hit the entire Zhongli City. Seeing this picture that was recorded in history books appear in front of me so realistically, all the soldiers of the Southern Dynasties were a little dazed.

"This city wall cannot be defended."

A woman's voice sounded calmly at this moment.

Lin Yi turned around and looked at Bai Yuelu who was making a sound at this moment.

Bai Yuelu walked directly to Lin Yi and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

She had a completely different position from all the Southern Dynasties here, but looking at the more than 100,000 Northern Wei troops, she knew very well that if there hadn't been a miracle, this would have been the last time she spent with Lin Yi.

She looked at the movements of the Northern Wei army in the dark and said slowly: "Some of the weapons can directly attack the northern wall where we are located at the edge of Jiangxinzhou. At most, many parts of this wall should be smashed."

Many Southern Dynasties soldiers on the city wall looked at her with some suspicion, but Lin Yi did not have any suspicion.

He nodded slowly and said, "But we cannot stop their ordnance from being transported to Jiangxinzhou."

"Any commander who is capable of commanding such a huge army has more experience in combat formation than us. They will not make mistakes in these links. It is not just a matter of floating bridges, they should be equipped with ships carrying loads."

Bai Yuelu looked at Lin Yi calmly and said, "Since you regard me as your military advisor, I have the responsibility to remind you that with the time they used weapons to attack the city, you should have nearly two hours. During these two hours, you should try to establish some defense lines behind the north wall. In this way, after the north wall is damaged, their next heavy cavalry and heavy armor attack will not be flat."

This sentence is her voice.

It was difficult for Lin Yi to understand her mood at this time, but as a Northern Wei native, even if she decided to assist Lin Yi as a military advisor of the Tie Ce Army at the beginning, speaking these words now was particularly heavy for her.

Lin Yi knew very well what kind of impact would the large number of heavy cavalry and heavy armored soldiers have influx of iron streams that would have on the sergeants in the city. He nodded, turned around and looked at the generals such as Wang Chaozong, and said, "We need to give up the north wall directly, but we cannot let the Northern Wei people outside see it."

"good."

Wang Chaozong nodded directly and walked backwards.

He and Lin Yi didn't even have an in-depth conversation, but this is the case on the battlefield. Being able to face death peacefully together means being the same type of people, just like a close friend who has known for many years.

"I'll take Xue Jiu and the others there too."
