    ?

    "Your Highness, I'm afraid this will not be able to be pulled off for a while!"

    Looking at the situation in front of him, Pang Zhong said helplessly.

    "That's right."

    Zhen Feng also expressed his agreement with Pang Zhong's words. Although they were dragging, others were also pulling.

    "We can't continue this stalemate, use a catapult!"

    Zhou Heng looked at the situation in front of him and understood that the next situation was not good for them.

    "Catapult?"

    Everyone looked at Zhou Heng.

    "That's right, use the catapult to hit me at the position of the tower." Zhou Heng raised his finger and pointed to the tower of Shengli City. Zhou Heng saw that the people pulling were concentrated at the tower.  It will definitely reduce the pressure on Hou Wei and the others.

    "good."

    Lu Yue immediately went over and ordered all the catapults to hit the city tower.

    "put!"

    Just in an instant, the flying stone smashed towards the city tower, the flying stone fell, and a hole was smashed out of the city tower, the doors and windows shattered, and the bricks and tiles fell.

    It was at this moment that Hou Wei, Li Xingba and others felt the strength of the other party's pulling force decrease.

    "Pull!"

    Li Xingba shouted.

    Everyone drank together, and with a loud bang, the suspension bridge was pulled down from mid-air, pressing on the river surface and splashing water splashes in all directions.

    "Come on!"

    Seeing the suspension bridge fall, Hou Wei held up the shield beside him, raised the shield above his head, and rushed ahead leading the Hundred Wars Army towards the gate of Victory City.

    "General?"

    The suspension bridge fell, and the defenders of Victory City showed panic and panicked. The suspension bridge was their barrier. At this time, the suspension bridge was occupied, and the Baizhan army was coming from the suspension bridge to attack them.

    The suspension bridge was no longer able to stop the Hundred Battle Army.

    "do not worry!"

    Huo Xin said something lightly, looking at the situation in front of him, Huo Xin still remained calm.

    "Who is that person above the city tower?" Zhou Heng looked up and saw Huo Xin observing the situation. Looking at Huo Xin's expression, he was very calm. He was able to deal with such a situation calmly.  Simple.

    "His name is Huo Xin."

    Lu Yue said that Huo Xin was one of Zhu Houde's trusted confidants, and Zhu Houde would often hand over the escort of grain and grass to Huo Xin.

    Although Huo Xin has never been on the battlefield, everyone knows the importance of food and grass, and ordinary people really do not have such qualifications.

    "Nice guy."

    Zhou Heng said with a smile.

    "Your Highness, does this mean you have a heart for talents?" Lu Yue looked at Zhou Heng, and I am afraid that even if Zhou Heng had a heart for talents, Huo Xin might not have surrendered to Da Zhou.

    "The love of talents has existed since ancient times, but people may not think highly of us Da Zhou."

    Zhou Heng said with a smile, he still has this self-knowledge, some people will submit to Da Zhou, and some people will not submit to Da Zhou.

    "Your Highness is transparent."

    Lu Yue said that he did not expect Zhou Heng to see it so clearly. Zhou Heng admired Huo Xin's talent and ability, but this did not mean that Zhou Heng wanted Huo Xin to return to Dazhou.

    "No way, Da Zhou can't be liked by everyone."

    Zhou Heng jokingly said that if there are people you like in this world, there are bound to be people you don't like. You can't make everyone like you, it's unrealistic.

    While speaking, the Hundred Zhan Army had already arrived at the gate of the city.

    The siege ladders immediately began to be placed.

    The soldiers climbed up the siege ladder.

    "The Log!"

    Seeing the Hundred Zhan Army climbing up the siege ladder, Huo Xin ordered everyone to use rolling logs to deal with the Hundred Zhan Army, and fell down one by one from the sky.

    Those who climbed up were quickly smashed down.

    Bows and arrows, boulders, rolling logs, boiling water, all kinds of means.

    As long as it can withstand the siege, that is the best way.

    "Throw the kerosene in for me!" Huo Xin saw the timing and ordered everyone to put the prepared kerosene into the moat, and jars of kerosene were thrown out.

    "Withdraw."

    The moment Zhou Heng saw the kerosene, he immediately ordered the army to evacuate.

    Ming Jin withdrew his troops and asked Hou Wei and others to stop attacking the city.

    The Hundred Wars Army withdrew immediately, but at the same time a flaming arrow fell on the moat, and the kerosene floating on the river instantly ignited.

    A wall of fire appeared in front of everyone.

    There are still some Hundred Warriors who have not withdrawnTrapped in the wall of fire, Zhou Heng and the others outside and inside were also blocked by the flames.

    "Kill me!"

    Huo Xin ordered to kill the Hundred Warriors who were blocked by the flames.

    When the bow and arrow fell, the Bai Zhan Army immediately set up their shields to defend, and everyone slowly gathered together.

    "Get out of here!"

    Hou Wei glanced at the situation in front of him, and the flames burned even more fiercely. If they don't go out again, I'm afraid these people will have to confess here.

    Howe held the shield in both hands and walked across the burning suspension bridge in front of him.

    "Your Highness!"

    Hou Wei came to Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng glanced at the people in front of him and waved his hands to let everyone go down to rest. Siege is such a troublesome thing.

    Sticking to the city can occupy a great advantage.

    Zhou Heng looked at Huo Xin. He didn't expect Huo Xin to have such a skill. The waves of attacks are connected with each other without any gaps at all. This is an impeccable defense.

    "I will kill this person!"

    Zhou Heng stared at Huo Xin and said, Huo Xin intercepted the Bai Zhan Army from attacking the city and caused the Bai Zhan Army to suffer losses. Zhou Heng vowed to kill this person.

    "Withdraw!"

    ?The siege failed, and Zhou Heng led his army to evacuate the city of Victory. Now that the suspension bridge has also been destroyed, if he wants to attack the city again, he may have to swim across the moat.

    "What should we do now, Your Highness?"

    Pang Zhong asked.

    "Use a catapult, attack me every once in a while, and don't let them have any rest time." Zhou Heng thought about it for a while and continued to harass and watch.

    "Your Highness!"

    Lu Yue took a step forward.

    "What good plan do you have?" When Zhou Heng saw Lu Yue approaching, Lu Yue must have thought of some good plan.

    "Your Highness, do you still remember our fight for water?" Lu Yue asked Zhou Heng, and Zhou Heng nodded. Of course he knew about it.

    That time they were ambushed by Nan Tang, and they almost suffered heavy losses.

    "The only lifeblood of this Victory City is the water source!"

    Lu Yue said.

    "how to say?"

    Zhou Heng asked, he hadn't really thought about this point. When Lu Yue said this, Zhou Heng immediately became interested, and wanted to know what the water source said.

    "The water source of Shengli City comes from the Taihang Mountains. As long as we cut off the water source, Shengli City will have no water. In less than half a month, Shengli City will feel that Shengli City will collapse on its own."

    Lu Yue said seriously.

    Looking at the map, Zhou Heng didn't expect that there was such a gate of life in Victory City. If God is helping him like this, Zhou Heng deserves to make contributions this time.

    "Okay, if this is the case, it's not too late, Shi Jie, Mu Guang, you two immediately lead troops to cut off the water source of Shengli City, I will make them have no water to drink."

    Zhou Heng immediately ordered Shi Jie and Mu Guang to go over.

    "yes!"

    Shi Jie and Mu Guang followed orders and immediately left the camp with 5,000 people

    "Report!"

    Huo Xin was cleaning the battlefield above the city tower. Although Zhou Heng and the others did not take advantage of this wave of siege, the catapults caused a lot of damage to the city wall, which must be repaired in time.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
