Wulin, who was stationed in Tongfang, felt a lot of pressure.

It was not beyond his expectations that the Qi army came to launch an attack. In fact, when the airship formation led by Han Dang was preparing to bomb Chang'an, Zhou Jiyun had already predicted that Guo Xiancheng would inevitably retaliate on a large scale, and the entire Kunling war zone was ready for battle, but what everyone did not expect was the scale of the war.

The attack on the Qi army troops on the same side was more than twice as expected, which caused considerable difficulties to defense. Unlike the army in the Wuling War Zone that had already transitioned to hot weapons on a large scale, the Kunling War Zone was still a war zone with cold weapons as its main combat weapon, but it was equipped with a certain number of artillery and catapults, strong crossbows, and crossbows to suppress the enemy. This did not form an overwhelming advantage in the alignment of the people, because he had them, and the Qi army also had them, like artillery. When he stood at the top of the city, he could see the opponent pulling people and transporting them to the front line.

It seems that there are those in the Ming army and those in Qi are all in it.

He turned his head and patted a cold iron cannon beside him, and said to a gunner: "I have this thing too, how about it? Are you afraid?"

The gunner smiled and said, "General Wu, you're afraid of a ball. We've seen their guns. The range is not bad, but the firing speed is not enough. If we shoot three or five guns, they will only shoot one shot. You can watch it later. We must knock out all their guns."

The morale of the army was still very high. Wu Lin nodded with a smile. Of course, the account was not calculated like this gunner, not to mention that even his own artillery could only rely on the situation of accurately destroying a specific target of the enemy.

The joint party must keep it.

Now all he can do is this. The Qi people left 30,000 people in front of him, and the remaining 20,000 people bypassed Tongfang and advanced towards Wanzhou's abdomen. Wulin could only watch and could return to the army to rescue unless he could defeat the enemy in front of him.

This time it seems that Qi people have been trying hard to do anything. If such a strategy fails, it will not be a small defeat, but a total defeat. Of course, if they succeed, it will be an unprecedented victory.

Will they win? Wulin shook his nose.

Or they can win some victory in a certain direction or in a certain battle, but from the overall strategy, Wulin could not see the possibility of Qi winning. As a former member of Qi, he knew too much about Qi.

Just focus on doing your own things well! Wu Lin put aside these mixed thoughts and fought a cruel meat grinder in Tongfang. His experience was richer. The last time he fought against him was famous generals like Bian Wushuang, Suqian, and Jiang Shangyan. Even so, he stubbornly defended Tongfang. What is the elder of the Qi general who came this time? In that battle, he had only 5,000 troops, and now he has tens of thousands of soldiers, weapons and equipment, and food reserves in his hands, which was far from comparable to that at that time.

He touched the hard city wall and sneered.

The Qi army began to line up in the distance, but several war horses came out from above and galloped towards Tongfang City, running more than a hundred steps away before stopping the horses, looking up at the city wall, and shouting loudly: "Wulin, do you still recognize me?"

Wu Lin looked at the other party coldly. Of course he knew him. He used to be in the Longxiang Army. At that time, they were all young men with strong energy. They first entered the Longxiang Army and were suppressed by veterans. The person in front of him was humble and naturally faced with even worse circumstances. Wu Lin, who came from a big family, certainly would not rely on others, so he gathered such people around him to fight against the veterans. In addition, he was rich and powerful, so he quickly gained a foothold in the army. There were quite a few poor children following him like this. However, Wu Lin joined the Longxiang Army just to go to the Dodo Jin. After serving there for several years, he retired and returned to the family army, and had no more contact with these people.

"You are from Qi, and the general said that as long as you are willing to go back, you will definitely not blame me." The visitor shouted: "Otherwise, if the battle is fought, you will not care about the feelings of old friends."

Looking at the man's appearance, Wulin laughed loudly.

"You are still as stupid as you were back then. Do you think it's unnecessary? When you raised your butcher knife to my Wu clan, your hands were also stained with blood? Now you are still here to talk to me about the relationship between old friends?"

"Why can't the Wu clan be killed by the great thief in the country? It's just that you, Wulin, had a relationship with me, and then came to live with you. Since you don't know each other, let's see the real sign on the battlefield!"

Wu Lin snorted coldly, "You are qualified?"

Wu Lin's disdain makes sense. Now he commands tens of thousands of troops to guard one side. Looking at the other side's clothing, he is just a tooth general. The vanguard who charges to the front challenge him?

He waved impatiently, "Kill!"

Above the city, hundreds of powerful crossbows buzzed loudly at the same time, and the black crossbow arrows poured down. The Qi general was shocked and turned around and ran away. Unfortunately, he was too close to the city wall, and there were too many crossbow arrows shot out from it. What he didn't expect was that Wu Lin actually killed him with disagreement.

The Qi army watching here was also disgraceful. Wu Lin made such a big move. In order to kill such a few people, he had hundreds of powerful crossbows at one move.

The powerful crossbow landed, and the few people and horses under the city were nailed to the ground alive.

"Idiot!" Wu Lin cursed with a smile.

Li Jiarong, the general who commanded the Qi army to attack Tongfang, was also furious at this time, "The two armies were fighting and did not kill the envoys. Wu Lin was so rude and sent orders to prepare for the attack."

In the Qi army array, drums were heard loudly, rows of infantrymen came out, and the shield slowly moved forward. Behind them, powerful crossbows, catapults, artillery, etc. slowly followed. Almost the moment they entered the range of artillery on the city, dozens of artillery on the city were sprayed with flames.

The shells roared out of the cannon chamber and landed in the advancing Qi army. The smoke rose, the dust was flying, and the screams and noises immediately sounded. Chen Rong's rigorous Qi army dispersed in an uproar, and the infantry began to run forward. Behind them, more infantry carried ladders and pushed siege cars to follow, while the long-range weapons stopped on the spot and began preparations before launch.

Li Jiarong gave Wu Lin a multiple-choice question, either attacking his long-range weapon group and suppressing his cover firepower, then his infantry would definitely be able to pounce on the city wall and start fighting against the city, or attacking his offensive infantry group. In this way, his long-range weapon group could be shot against the city.

The artillery fire on the top of the city actually abandoned the suppression of long-range weapons of the Qi army at the first time and began to launch intensive attacks on the siege infantry group, which surprised Li Jiarong a little.

But immediately, he understood. Because on his right side, smoke and dust were shattering, a cavalry unit had already come to kill. Wulin had actually ambushed a cavalry outside the city very early. He wanted to use this cavalry to sneak attack his long-range weapon unit.

"It's a whim!" Li Jiarong sneered disdainfully. Wu Lin was just a name. How could he be without defense in such a side attack? He didn't need his command. His cavalry, who was walking around, had already rode his horse to meet him.

The artillery shells of the Qi people finally landed on the head of Tongfang's city. Unlike the flowering bullets that the Ming army had already started to use on a large scale, the Qi people can only use solid bullets. Each one fell down and it made a loud noise. The huge kinetic energy was that the city walls that Tongfang had repeatedly reinforced were a pit when they landed on the ground. If they smashed the wall, a piece of pie disc could be destroyed.

Sailors began to appear on the city walls. In the light of fire, Ming soldiers were massacring the attacking infantry groups in an orderly manner. As the artillery soldier said earlier, the firing rate of the Qi people's artillery was too slow.

The Qi infantrymen rushed closer and closer, but the closer they were, the more they were, the more intense the attack firepower on the city. First, they were cannon catapults, and then they added powerful crossbows. When they were not far from the city, the crossbows began to scream again. When they finally arrived at the city and started to board the ladder, the rolling stones arrived as scheduled.

Compared with the slight losses above the city, the Qi army under the city had already suffered many casualties as soon as the war started.

But for both generals, they knew such casualties. What is this? The battle has just begun!

Wulin did not take care of the city guarding. For his subordinates, such a battle was already familiar with the situation and what kind of response measures they needed. They had experienced it a few years ago. Now it is just a repeat of the changes. His eyes fell on the cavalry outside. He had invested a lot of money in this cavalry, hoping that they could live up to their efforts.

Li Jiarong's vision finally fell on the cavalry. He didn't care much, but when the enemy cavalry defeated his left guerrilla in a decisive way, he couldn't help but ignore it. More Qi cavalry were gusting out of the formation, trying to surround the cavalry, but the left guerrilla defeat was too fast. Unexpectedly, they had some errors in time. The enemy cavalry entered the flank like a wind and inserted into the battlefield, inserted into the attacking infantry and long-range weapons.
