Luo Tian used his martial arts to completely disrupt the enemy's attack at the east gate. Coupled with the effective cooperation of the defenders at the city gate, the enemy's corpses were soon everywhere, and the water in the moat was dyed blood red.
The enemy quickly retreated and gathered together. Luo Tian guessed that the enemy might concentrate their attack, so he used his Qinggong to fly up to the city wall and let the soldiers prepare for defense.
But unexpectedly, the enemy did not launch an attack, but the rear team became the front team and marched southward.
"Prince, the enemy seems to be retreating!" said a soldier.
"Great, we finally held it." said another soldier.
Luo Tian immediately understood that the enemy army would definitely not be able to take the East Gate, and he also knew that if he continued to attack, he would probably be annihilated, so he turned around and ran towards the South Gate. If this was the case, the South Gate would definitely suffer a more fierce attack.
"Now listen to my orders. The three of you teams follow me, and the rest of you stay to guard the city gate. If the enemy attacks again, you must first give me information, and then defend it with all your might." Luo Tian ordered.
"Yes, sir." the soldiers replied.
Luo Tian led a part of the garrison to the South Gate to support the battle. Dugu Yun was in charge of commanding the battle at the South Gate, and he was dispatching soldiers to resist the enemy's attack.
After Luo Tian arrived at the South Gate, he did not find Dugu Yun, so he asked the captain guarding the city: "Where is your commander?"
The captain pointed to the densely packed crowd below and said, "Prince, the commander is fighting the enemy down there. He is so powerful that he is almost fighting the entire army by himself."
Luo Tian knew that although his master was a skilled martial artist, he was old after all and could not withstand the consumption of so many people. Moreover, the enemy troops at the east gate would soon join forces with those at the south gate, and by then the number of people would have doubled, making it even more difficult for his master to hold back the enemy troops on his own.
"Listen to my command. Take out all the equipment for defending the city. Gather the archers at the city gate to cover me and my master as we launch the attack." Luo Tian said.
Following his instructions, the archers soon stood in a row, and the slingshot troops were also waiting for orders on the city wall.
"Everyone, prepare, fire!" After Luo Tianxia gave the order, countless arrows and stones were thrown at the enemy. Because the enemy had been focusing on Dugu Yun, they only realized it when the rain of arrows and stones fell, but it was too late.
A large number of enemy soldiers were hit by arrows or hit by stones because they had no time to react, resulting in heavy casualties.
Luo Tian took this opportunity to fly out of the city to Dugu Yun's side, and the two fought side by side.
"Master, you have been fighting for an hour, right? Go back and have a rest first, and leave this to me." Luo Tian said.
Dugu Yun said as he fought, "Are you kidding me? Do you want me to be a deserter? Now is the critical moment. If I retreat, the soldiers at the South Gate will see me and abandon the city and flee, right?"
The enemy troops that had just come from the east gate quickly joined the enemy troops at the south gate. Luo Tian and Dugu Yun fought hard, and the scene was extremely fierce. Although Luo Tian and Dugu Yun had much higher physical strength than ordinary people, they could not withstand the enemy's human wave tactics. The two gradually felt tired, and the enemy's attack was still wave after wave, with no sign of stopping at all.
"Damn it, if I keep going on like this I'll be exhausted to death even if I'm not killed!" Luo Tian thought to himself and looked in the direction of Dugu Yun.
At this time, Dugu Yun was still fighting hard to kill the enemy, but from his movements, it could be seen that his strength was not as strong as before, and his speed was not as fast as before, which meant that his master's physical strength was barely holding up.
Luo Tian was worried that something might happen to Dugu Yun, so he created a gap and stood back to back with Dugu Yun to resist the enemy's attack.
"Master, let's go to the tower and rest for a while and discuss strategies. There are too many people here and I'm afraid we can't hold on any longer." Luo Tian advised, "As long as you have the green mountains, you will never worry about lack of firewood!"
"Okay, let's retreat now!" Dugu Yun agreed with Luo Tian's suggestion. The two fought and retreated, and soon they reached the city gate. Luo Tian and Dugu Yun leaped up, and the two climbed along the city wall, and soon they reached the city gate tower.
The enemy soldiers were already at the gates of the city, and they had set up ladders and started to attack the city. Luo Tian instructed the soldiers to start throwing stones, fireballs and other equipment at the enemy. The attack of the soldiers defending the city soon took effect, and the enemy's offensive momentum slowed down.
Dugu Yun was resting on the side and found that the enemy army quickly formed a long line under the city and took out shields to block in front of them.
"Oh no! They are going to attack us with arrows!" Dugu Yun thought of this and quickly ordered the soldiers guarding the city, "Quick, everyone, squat down and find a place to hide. Quick!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dense rain of arrows fell from the sky. Many soldiers who did not have time to hide were shot and fell off the city wall.
At this time, a small team in the enemy's arrow formation quickly moved towards the city wall. They carried door-breaking wood and arrived at the city gate under the cover of rain of arrows and began to hit the city gate with the door-breaking wood.
After Luo Tian learned of their intention, he knew that he could not go down the city wall, so he could only go around the city gate and observe the progress of the enemy through the gap.
The enemy pushed harder and harder at the gate, and the defenders behind the gate could no longer resist. Luo Tian came up with a plan, and whispered to the defenders, "Find the right opportunity and open the city gate. They will surely rush in by inertia and fall flat on their faces. Then we can close the city gate and beat them like a slammer."
The defenders all agreed, and when the enemy retreated and prepared to ram the gate, they secretly opened the gate bolt. At the moment when the enemy rammed the gate, the defenders opened the gate, and the enemy was pushed directly in by inertia. One group of defenders quickly surrounded the enemy, and another group of defenders locked the gate.
Luo Tian led the defenders to beat up the incoming enemy troops and intentionally left some of them alive, but tied them up.
