Chapter 1180(1/2)
Whoosh swish swish swish!
Arrows shot towards the White Elephant Army's positions.
"No, the White Elephant Army actually used bows and arrows to attack us. It seems that they have begun to resist."
A burst of exclamations came from the lookout.
The general also frowned.
Obviously, the White Elephant Army's counterattack made him feel very difficult.
Just as they were discussing what to do, suddenly, there were waves of fierce gunfire coming from the lookout table again.
This time it was the White Elephant Army that opened fire.
"Damn it, they want to take the opportunity to attack our army."
A deputy shouted.
"King, what should we do now?"
The deputy looked at the White Elephant King and asked for advice.
The White Elephant King thought about it and said to the deputy:
"You first retreat with thousands of people, and then let all the troops stop attacking, and then you say that the White Elephant Army has surrendered."
"Yes, king."
The deputy immediately issued an order.
Then, the gate of Baixiang City opened.
A team of white elephant soldiers walked out and began to retreat to the city. Instead of pursuing the victory, they chose to give up.
This made the soldiers very puzzled.
Soon, they knew the reason.
Because, they found that they could not rush down at all, and below, they saw countless archers shooting.
All this made the White Elephant Army timid.
"King, what should we do now?"
A white elephant army asked.
"I don't know, keep holding on for a while, I believe that those white elephant people will not dare to act rashly. I believe that when they attack again, they will inevitably have concerns, and then we can turn defeat into victory."
The White Elephant King said in a deep voice.
"Okay, let's hold on for a while."
The white elephant army nodded.
Soon, the soldiers under the city retreated one after another.
"What's going on? Did these savages really surrender?"
When a deputy general saw this situation, he couldn't help but think in confusion.
Soon, he packed up his armor and led his soldiers out of the city gate.
Soon, he arrived near the city gate.
"Report."
The deputy general shouted.
"What's up?"
A soldier came over and asked.
"Report to the general, the group of savages retreated under our noses. I suspect that these savages wanted to take this opportunity to seize the entire city."
"How is this possible? They can't rush through the city wall at all. How do they seize the city?"
"General, I don't know this question, but I think there is such a possibility."
The deputy general shook his head and said.
"That's it! It seems that I'm going to rush to Baixiang City as soon as possible to see what's going on. You go and prepare, and then go to Baixiang City with me."
"yes."
Soon, the deputy general left.
After a while, the deputy general came to another city, then found a city lord, and asked him about the specific incident.
"Oh, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about the savages you just met."
"All right."
"According to the news we received, the White Elephant King had sent troops to capture the other three cities yesterday, but he encountered the resistance of the strong enemy and eventually suffered heavy losses. Baixiang City lost most of its troops.
We also tried to send people to reinforce Baixiang City, but there was no way. So we decided to allocate some troops from the other four cities to reinforce Baixiang City. In this way, we can at least occupy the other four cities in a short period of time and then arrange troops in those cities. At that time, they will have to let us slaughter.
But, just now, those savages suddenly appeared. Their weapons were very powerful. Many white elephant people had no power to resist under their hands."
The deputy general said.
"How do you know about this?"
The city lord asked in confusion.
"Reporting to the city lord, I don't know much. I just heard that the White Elephant King had just sent people to four other cities, and then he was obstructed by the barbarians. Now all the barbarians have been driven away by the White Elephant King's troops."
The deputy general said.
"Well, I know this news, so, what do you think the White Elephant King will deal with this matter?"
The city lord asked.
"I don't know much about this. Perhaps, he will continue to let other white elephant people go to the other four cities."
The deputy general said.
"I know this, too. You go back first. When I call the other three generals and then go to Baixiang City together, I want to see what tricks they want to play?"
The city lord pondered for a moment and said.
"Yes, I'll prepare now."
The deputy general agreed and left.
"Report, the city lord, it's not good. The White Elephant King led more than 20,000 cavalry under his command and had already entered the city gate."
At this moment, a soldier hurriedly came to report.
"What? They are here, do they want to attack the city gate?"
The city lord was shocked.
"I don't know, my subordinates just heard about this, and they didn't see it with their own eyes. However, the fortifications at our city gate are very bad. I'm afraid they will break through our city gate in a short while."
The soldier said in a panic.
"Okay, go and summon other city lords immediately. Let's go to the city gate to welcome the White Elephant King. We want to see how they broke through our city gate."
The city lord pondered for a moment, then said.
"yes."
The soldier hurriedly left.
Soon, the city lord came to the city gate with the generals.
"My generals, I heard that you are all discussing siege tactics, I wonder if you have thought of it?"
The city lord looked at them and asked.
"City Lord, this question is really hard to say. We have only heard of it. As for the specific plan, we have not yet thought of it."
"Yes, so do I. We don't understand the terrain of the White Elephant Kingdom at all, and we don't know how to fight this battle to win. So, we really don't know what decision we should make, and we also hope that the city lord will give us advice."
"That's right, the White Elephant Man is much stronger than ours now, and our city gates may not be able to stop them at all."
"City Lord, I suggest that we should hide for a while first. When our reinforcements arrive, we will send troops to attack the Baixiang Kingdom. At that time, we will definitely be able to easily conquer the Baixiang Kingdom and take down the Baixiang City."
One of the generals said.
"Although the method you mentioned is very good, we don't have much time to wait now. We must fight and decide quickly. Otherwise, the White Elephant Kingdom will be really captured by the barbarians, which will lead to our country being completely annexed by the barbarians."
The city lord frowned and said.
"This, we can try to negotiate with the White Elephant Kingdom. If they are willing to cooperate with us, then we can stop attacking the White Elephant City for the time being. Then, we can arrange a large number of troops to come from other places to help us attack the White Elephant Kingdom. At that time, we will capture the White Elephant Kingdom in one fell swoop. No matter how powerful the barbarians are, they will never be able to withstand our attack."
At this time, another general stood up and said.
"This is a good solution, but I am worried that the White Elephant King will reject us. After all, at this time, what he needs is an ally that he can trust, and we are not his most trusted ally, and I am worried that they will deal with us."
The city lord said in a deep voice.
"City Lord, don't worry, the White Elephant King still needs to rely on us now, and he will definitely not reject us."
