"flame!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Upon receiving the order, Flame threw several fireballs towards the oil drums, causing them to explode and turning many nearby enemies into small fireballs.
Gasoline barrels kept exploding, and with a lot of wood under their feet, many people were burned to death. Those behind them were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
"Ha ha!"
Everyone burst into laughter upon seeing this.
Zhang Simin and the others initially saw their troops rush to the city wall and soon be able to engage Wang Bin and his men in close combat. However, before they could celebrate for long, they saw their troops being engulfed by flames, and their faces turned deathly pale.
Now, everyone in the team is rushing to the back, their previous confident demeanor gone.
The 100,000 people watching from a distance were all terrified by Wang Bin's methods. They were now filled with dread, wondering what tactics they would encounter if they launched an attack.
The troops were driven back, and morale was low. It was impossible to get them to attack again, so they had no choice but to retreat and wait until tomorrow to fight again.
Seeing the Zhang family and others retreat, the people on the mountain cheered with joy.
After the troops were brought back, a tally was taken. More than 2,000 people died and more than 3,000 were wounded in the battle. Zhang Simin and the others were all shocked. They hadn't even really started fighting the enemy yet, so how could there be so many casualties?
"Look at me, we underestimated that kid Wang Bin!" Zhang Simin said coldly.
"So what do we do next?"
"If a frontal attack doesn't work, then let's try a sneak attack. Gather all the people in your units who have climbing abilities, and we'll launch a surprise attack on them in the middle of tonight!"
"Great idea!"
After some discussion, Zhang Simin and the others decided that in the second half of the night, they would send someone to secretly climb up the mountain, lower a rope ladder, and then secretly send up a team. After that, they would open the city gate and let the main force in.
With the help of the blind girl Afang, Wang Bin already knew the other party's plan. Wang Bin was not flustered and pretended not to know anything.
In the latter half of the night, Uncle Zhang, who was in charge of monitoring the enemy, quickly discovered their movements through night vision binoculars.
Through the night vision binoculars, the other party's movements were clearly visible, and Uncle Zhang immediately informed Wang Bin.
Upon hearing this, Wang Bin immediately led his men to the edge of the cliff and used night vision binoculars to see that there were more than a hundred people below the cliff, and several of them were already slowly climbing up.
"Wang Bin, there's another group of people on the east side!"
"Okay, Xiaoyue, the east corner is yours!"
"No problem, come with me!"
Guan Xiaoyue agreed and led a group of elites to run in the other direction.
Li Dazhu said irritably while smoking, "These guys are so slow. I really want to give them some ropes to help them climb up faster so we can finish work early and go back to sleep!"
Abao agreed, "That's right! If they knew we had Sister Afang and Uncle Wang, they probably wouldn't have tried so many tricks!"
Wang Bin said with a smile, "That's good too. The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for them. First, they're running out of food and they're panicking. Second, the repeated failures of their attacks are greatly affecting their morale. On the other hand, our morale will only rise higher and higher!"
Li Dazhu said with a smile, "Wang Bin, I think you are sometimes a real military genius. You are self-taught. You always managed to make our enemies run around in circles!"
Wang Bin said with a smile, "If you learn to put yourself in the enemy's shoes and think about problems from their perspective, you can also guess what tactics they will use."
Wang Bin and his companions chatted leisurely, waiting for the enemy to slowly climb up.
Wangyue Peak is over 3,000 meters high, and it takes some time to climb up.
Zhang Simin and the others kept checking their watches. According to their plan, their men should have climbed up long ago, but the news they received was that they were still halfway up the mountain. Their faces darkened.
There's nothing we can do at this point; we can only wait.
"Almost there!"
"These guys are so slow, I've been smoking a cigarette for ages!"
Frustrated, Li Dazhu threw down his cigarette and led his men to hide nearby.
Soon, a man covered in sweat from exhaustion climbed up and sat on the edge of the cliff, panting heavily.
Just then, a vine suddenly emerged from the ground, wrapped tightly around him before he could even scream, and gagged him as well.
By the time he realized what was happening, Li Dazhu chuckled and led his men out of the bushes, scratching his face repeatedly with a small knife.
"If you don't want to suffer, tell us your whole plan!"
The man tried to resist, but as soon as Xiao Nan tightened her vines, he was strangled so badly that his blood couldn't circulate and his whole body turned red.
Li Dazhu brandished the knife in front of the other man, and before long, the man confessed all his plans.
When the man was caught, someone nearby took the rope from him and tied it to a large rock so that the others could climb up. Soon, the people at the foot of the mountain climbed up the rope ladder.
More than half an hour later, someone finally climbed up.
As soon as the man reached the top of the mountain, a hand reached out to take his hand. The man thought it was a fellow traveler and said thank you.
Just as he was pulled up, his mouth was covered, and then a large iron hammer smashed down on his head. His eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground, where he was quickly dragged inside by the people around him.
This group of people had a clear division of labor and moved with fluid movements, like machines. One person would come up and be pulled up, then have their mouth covered and be hit with a big iron hammer, and finally be dragged away.
When seventy or eighty people had come up, the people behind them noticed something was amiss, but they were already close to the top of the mountain.
Li Dazhu stopped hiding and poked his head out, brandishing a large machete and threatening, "Are you going to come up here yourselves, or should I cut the rope for you and you fly down on your own?"
"Ah, don't cut! Don't cut! We'll come up ourselves!"
"Hmm, you're quite sensible. If you don't raise any alarms, I might spare your lives. But if your boss finds out, I won't hold back, and none of you will survive!"
"Yes, yes, we all know what to do!"
"Very good, come on up!"
"Yes, yes!"
The remaining men agreed and slowly climbed up, then threw down their weapons and squatted on the ground.
Wang Bin and the others were amused when they saw this; these guys probably had a lot of experience in the police station before.
After imprisoning the two hundred-plus people in the stone cell, *** took a flashlight and went to the city gate, shining a signal of three long dots and two short dots at the enemies hiding in the distance.
"They've succeeded! Attack!"
The leader, who was hiding in the shadows, was overjoyed when he saw this. With a wave of his hand, he led his men and ran towards the city wall.
