Chapter 219 Artillery Attack

Yelu Yuan and Yelu Ning waited all night but did not wait for Xia Yang's night attack.

Yelu Ning could no longer hide his sleepiness and said, "These cunning Xiayang people made me spend so much effort in vain. I am freezing to death now."

Yelu Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Ning, it seems that this Xiayang's Divine Power Marquis is quite capable. He actually did not pursue the victory. I'm afraid our general has met his match."

Yelu Ning stood up and relaxed his numb and frozen legs, saying, "No matter how powerful he is, we are leading an army of 500,000 this time. Can't we deal with him and the 300,000 troops inside the pass?"

Yelu Yuan also stood up, smiled and shook his head, and did not argue with Yelu Ning anymore.

At this time, a barbarian soldier ran over and said, "General, it's almost dawn. The commander said Xia Yang will not attack the camp again. You and your soldiers should go back and rest."

Yelu Ning laughed when he heard this, winked at Yelu Yuan, and said, "Great, this damn weather, it's just November and the temperature has dropped below zero at night, I almost froze to death."

Yelu Yuan looked at the mist coming out of his nose as he breathed and nodded in agreement.

The barbarians who received the general's order slowly dispersed, and some of them had trembling hands holding their spears.

That night, the deep autumn in the border wilderness made the ancient barbarian soldiers feel the cold of the night.

On Xia Yang's side, someone brought up the plan of a night attack during the discussion, but it was rejected by Lin Mingwei and Chu Mo.

Because of yesterday's military preparations, the soldiers were already very tired and were not suitable for a night attack. They should rest well to prepare for the attack from the ancient barbarians during the day.

So, everyone had a good rest that night.

After breakfast in the morning, Chu Mo looked at the soldiers in training all the way and slowly climbed up to Hanyang Pass.

At this time, Lin Mingwei had already appeared at Hanyang Pass, looking into the distance, wondering what he was thinking?

At this time, there were only three people on the top of the city wall, including Yang Jiye. Lin Mingwei did not pretend and spoke directly: "My lord, last night I carefully inquired about the situation of the battle before we came, and found a problem. The enemy general did not fight with all his strength."

"In several battles, Yelu Xiong only brought 30,000 soldiers and horses, and defeated Zhao Pu and his men step by step. It was like an old man playing with a naughty boy. There is no comparison between the two."

"Yesterday, we caught Yelu Xiong by surprise and made him suffer a loss. I don't think he will easily swallow this anger and will definitely have some plans."

Chu Mo immediately understood what Lin Mingwei was thinking and stated his guess directly.

"You mean to say that the enemy will be planning an all-out battle next, and we have no advantage, so you are thinking of a strategy to defeat the enemy."

Lin Mingwei didn't say anything, but his serious face said it all.

Chu Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, Elder Lin. As the saying goes, when an enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals, and when water comes, we will block it with earth. With so many of us, we will definitely find a way to deal with the ancient barbarians when they attack the city."

Lin Mingwei didn't say anything. He took out a map at some point and kept comparing it with the terrain in the distance, as if he was looking for the key to breaking the deadlock.

In fact, Lin Mingwei's guess was not wrong, because Yelu Xiong thought so. At this time, he was summoning all the generals to discuss in the central military tent.

Yelu Xiong glanced at the crowd and said, "After deep thought, I have decided to launch a general attack on Hanyang Pass tonight."

Yelu Yuan quickly stepped forward and said, "Commander-in-chief, isn't this too hasty? Hanyang Pass is high and solid, easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we rashly launch a general attack, we may not be able to take Hanyang Pass, and it will also consume our troops."

Yelu Xiong smiled and glanced at Yelu Yuan who stood up. He did not scold him, but said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will not fight a battle without preparation."

"Before the expedition, in addition to ordering people to build ladders and siege vehicles, I also brought a large number of grenade vehicles. These are the best weapons for bombing cities and breaking walls. At night, when Xia Yang is unprepared, bomb him hard."

Yelu Qi knew the intelligence of his commander, but he still couldn't help but ask, "Commander, Hanyang Pass is integrated with the surrounding mountains and hills, and is built with sturdy special spiritual objects. Ordinary ammunition is unlikely to cause any damage to Hanyang Pass."

Yelu Xiong looked at the talented young man in his family and patiently answered: "I would naturally think of this, so I asked the emperor for a hundred thunder bombs, which are enough to break through Hanyang Pass."

Yelu Yuan had naturally heard of the thunder bomb, which was invented by the emperor specifically to deal with the Xiayang city wall. Not only was it extremely powerful and contained radioactive explosives, it also had the effect of crushing rocks and was specifically designed to destroy city walls.

After hearing what Yelu Xiong said about the thunder bomb, Yelu Yuan was completely relieved.

After Lin Mingwei came down from Hanyang Pass, he sent out a large number of scouts to closely monitor the actions of the ancient barbarians.

In this way, Lin Mingwei waited until the sun set, but did not find any abnormality from Gu Man, which made him even more uneasy.

Chu Mo also noticed something unusual, because Yelu Xiong had not shown up the whole day, and this situation should not occur under normal circumstances.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the central military tent was a bit depressing.

The night wind blew the door curtains, and gusts of cold wind penetrated into the central military tent, and the temperature at night began to gradually drop.

Just when Lin Mingwei wanted to order the soldiers to rest, the scouts finally brought news that the ancient barbarian army had made new moves.

Yelu Xiong ordered 100,000 troops to stay at Saiyanba, where they had food and supplies to support the war, and they had to prevent sneak attacks from the enemy.

Under the leadership of Yelu Xiong, the 400,000-strong army advanced thirty miles towards Hanyang Pass. The barbarians moved slowly, carrying their bulky weapons, and continued to approach Hanyang Pass.

When they came within the range of the grenade launcher, Yelu Xiong ordered the army to stop advancing. The soldiers quickly took their positions, and the grenade launcher, under the operation of a special person, quickly entered combat status.

Looking at the dozens of bomb-throwing vehicles lined up in a row, Yelu Xiong's eyes flashed with endless coldness, and he said in a cold voice: "Listen to my command, and throw."

Suddenly, one after another, ignited bombs were dropped into the sky and flew towards Hanyang Pass and the military camp behind it.

"boom"

A loud bang resounded through the sky, and everyone was startled by the sudden sound. Then they saw fire on the wall of Hanyang Pass.

"boom"

There was another deafening bang, and then a military tent was seen engulfed in flames. All the soldiers within a dozen meters around were killed by flying shrapnel, and some were even crushed to pieces.

For a moment, a clear scream rang in Chu Mo's ears.

Chu Mo looked at the power and was afraid that it was no weaker than a full-strength attack from someone who had just entered the third realm. It was simply not something that ordinary people could withstand.

Then, more than a dozen fireballs fell from the sky again. Lin Mingwei knew how terrifying the sky bombs were, so he didn't dare to be careless at all. He walked directly into the air and blocked several sky bombs that were heading towards the place where the soldiers gathered.

But the city wall of Hanyang Pass suffered a heavy blow, with rocks flying everywhere and holes everywhere.

Lin Mingwei was in mid-air, watching the barbarian army twenty miles away, and quickly gave an order: "Hanyang's first and second armies go to defend the city walls. If the barbarian soldiers attack the city, we must not let them rush up."

"Hanyang's three armies are on standby at all times. If the first and second armies suffer heavy losses, they will immediately take over. Hanyang's fourth army will be responsible for guarding the entrance to the pass. Do not allow any barbarians to enter the pass."

Lin Mingwei gave orders in an orderly manner, and Chu Mo also asked Zhang Jiao: "Can the formation you set up resist the incoming shells?"

Zhang Jue shook his head and said, "My lord, my cultivation is too low. If I could reach the peak of the second level of soul-bearing stage, I could do it. But if I activate the formation now, it won't last for ten shells before it completely collapses. I can only activate it when the ancient barbarians launch a full-scale attack."

Chu Mo nodded, and gave orders to Yan Yonghe, asking him to do his best to treat the injured.
