Your fiefdom gains one soldier every second, what should you do, Queen Mother?

"Woo!"

The attack horn in the army suddenly sounded, and Wang Yuan, riding on horseback, drew his sword and pointed it forward!

"All soldiers, listen up! Attack the city and kill the bandits!"

"kill!"

The generals under Wang Yuan led their troops and attacked towards Jubei City!

Although Wang Yuan did not bring heavy siege equipment this time, the bandits in Jubei City did not fortify the city as impregnable.

In Tuoba Wu's eyes, not only did their Jubei City have the natural barrier of Beiqiong Ridge, but they also had the support of the Beihu tribe, so they were not afraid of an attack by government troops.

Therefore, when the bandits in Jubei City saw Wang Yuanzhen leading his men to attack the city, they were a little panicked at first.

But after a brief panic, Tuoba Wu's order came down.

"Don't panic! They are just a bunch of rabble, nothing to be afraid of! Get your weapons ready, get ready to block the attack!"

The bandits on the city wall all put their knives on the ground, then picked up the bows and quivers at their feet, and the quivers were filled with arrows.

Tuoba Wu leaned forward, and when Wang Yuan saw the bandit leader appear, he immediately ordered his men to stop advancing.

Wang Yuan rode his horse forward a short distance, while his personal guards stood on both sides with shields raised at all times.

"Sir Wang, my Jubei City and your Longxi City have always kept to themselves. Now you are leading a large army to attack Jubei City aggressively. Are you trying to destroy me?" Tuoba Wu narrowed his eyes and shouted loudly.

Wang Yuan just sneered after hearing this. After a long while, he said loudly: "The court has long wanted to take over your Jubei City! If you destroy Jubei City, I will definitely get promoted and make a fortune!"

"There is no point in talking any more. Today is the day you bandits will die!"

As soon as the words fell, Tuoba Wu's face turned cold, and the anger in his heart spread wantonly. He shouted angrily: "Wang Yuan, since you can't be persuaded with kind words, I will make sure you don't come back today!"

He immediately waved his hand, and the bandits behind him suddenly leaned forward, each of them pulled the string, and then shot the arrow out!

When Wang Yuan saw the rain of arrows falling, his face suddenly changed. He decisively jumped off the horse, and the guards around him immediately raised their shields to protect him in the center.

As for his army, they were not so lucky. Although there were shield soldiers in the army, Wang Yuan had never thought of putting the shield soldiers in the front from the beginning.

He didn't think that these bandits would have too many arrows, but he forgot that behind Jubei City were the Hu people, and the Northern Hu had a large number of arrows.

The price of arrogance is tragic casualties. The troops that were originally in the front had no shield soldiers to clear the way, and most of them died under the rain of arrows.

However, the subsequent troops suffered fewer casualties under the protection of the shield soldiers. Tuoba Wu sighed in dissatisfaction when he saw that only the front group died.

"Old Five! Go inform Old Two and Old Three. Once the officers and soldiers fall into the trap, have them lead the team to fight their way out!"

Tuoba Wu looked at the soldiers outside fiercely, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Kill these dogs! Let those generals in the court remember that we in Jubei City are not easy to mess with!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the bandits raised their arms and shouted.

Wang Yuan pushed away the guards beside him and waited for a while before he dared to stick his head out and look around.

"Is it over?" Wang Yuan immediately asked the guard beside him.

He noticed that the shields of his personal guards were full of arrows, which meant that the bandits in Jubei City had a large number of arrows.

Then he thought of his deployment of troops and immediately regretted it. A moment later, a general reported the casualties to him.

"Okay, okay!" After listening to the report, Wang Yuan's eyes seemed to be burning with anger. He snorted coldly: "Pass the order down, the shield soldiers will be in front and the infantry will be behind, and they will advance in a straight line!"

"Yes!"

Wang Yuan's subordinates dragged the bodies of the brothers who were shot to death by arrows to the rear, and then the army re-formed its battle formation and marched forward.

Because of the previous arrow rain attack, Wang Yuan’s army had to advance more cautiously this time than before.

They walked forward for a long time, and no more arrows fell overhead, which made the generals' tense hearts relax.

Behind Wang Yuan’s army, Ying Xuanze led his 10,000 troops and watched quietly, waiting for the two teams to fight.

but......

Ying Xuanze touched his chin with his hand. If Wang Yuan’s army was advancing slowly, it was because they became cautious after being attacked by the rain of arrows.

Why didn't the bandits launch another surprise attack when Wang Yuan's army was just regaining its formation? He believed that the effect would be no worse than the first surprise attack.

There are two reasons. First, Wang Yuan’s army had just suffered a surprise attack and many people died. At this time, the morale of the army was relatively low.

Second, there were a large number of cavalry among the bandits. Although they were not as strong as the regular army, they were a devastating blow to Wang Yuan’s army’s formation on such a large plain.

But this group of bandits chose to remain in place. War is the way of the devil, so there must be something fishy going on!

"My lord, Zifang has another question." Zhang Liang suddenly spoke.

"Military advisor, you may ask as much as you like."

"I think Wang Yuan's subordinates are ready to make a move. If it were you, my lord, what would you choose?"

Ying Xuanze looked towards where Wang Yuan was, and sure enough, there were already two generals standing in front of Wang Yuan. They bowed their heads and clasped their fists, as if they were requesting something.

"The bandits are cunning. If it were me, I would use my troops cautiously. How could I suffer a loss a second time after the first one?" Ying Xuanze said with a smile.

"My lord is wise. These bandits could have launched another surprise attack on Wang Yuan's army, but they chose to stay put."

"In my opinion, there must be a trap in front of the gate of Jubei City!" Zhang Liang smiled with his eyes narrowed.

"It would be a shame if such a vast land is not put to good use."

After listening to Zhang Liang's words, Ying Xuanze looked at the land in front of Jubei City. He narrowed his eyes slightly and swept across the land with a cold gaze.

Soon, he noticed a piece of land that was different from the surrounding land. If he guessed correctly, there must be a big pit there!

On the other side, the two generals who received instructions from Wang Yuan issued orders to the entire army.

The city lord agreed to let the entire army launch a charge, but the shield soldiers still had to march in the front to prevent the bandits from launching another surprise attack with arrows.

With the city lord's order, many soldiers of Wang Yuan's army were already exhausted, including the shield soldiers, everyone roared and rushed towards the city gate.

The troops responsible for the siege followed closely behind the shield soldiers, and as they charged, the archers in Wang Yuan’s army also began to shoot wildly at the top of the Jubei City.

Under the cover of their own archers, the vanguard of Wang Yuan's army advanced rapidly all the way and was about to reach the gate of Jubei City.

Just when they thought that this siege would go extremely smoothly, the soldiers in the vanguard suddenly realized that they had lost support under their feet, and then the shield soldiers and the siege troops fell one after another.

It turned out that there were pits of various sizes on the ground, which were covered with bamboo curtains and then covered with a thin layer of yellow sand.

At first, the shield soldiers could still support their weight when passing through these pits, but as the siege troops caught up, these bamboo curtains could no longer support them and broke!

The result was that almost all the vanguard troops fell into the pit, followed by screams of despair.
