Chapter 11897 The Unfulfilled Wish Six Days Six Full Days No matter how fierce and cruel the Oprus offensive was, the Black Flag Army soldiers who stood at Phoenix Terrace would not retreat even an inch. Lyman, knowing that things had changed, ordered his general Rellington to attack fiercely. However, a layer of the Phoenix Tower's city wall was chipped away by artillery fire, but he still failed to attack the city wall. Not only that, it seems that the Black Flag Army also blocked the city gate of Phoenix Tower. This is a desperate attitude. Lyman stood on the high platform and looked at the defenders on the city wall with his clairvoyance. There has been no return fire from the artillery fire on the city wall since this morning. Apparently, the Black Flag Army's artillery shells have been exhausted. The ballistae has also been basically destroyed by Orprus artillery fire, and all heavy weapons have become unusable. And Lyman could see that the defenders on the city wall did not have many reserves. It can be seen that Fang Jie must have encountered something extremely difficult, otherwise he would not have been able to withdraw so decisively. The soldiers who stayed behind must have received a death order and must hold on and not let the Opulus come to pursue them. At this moment, there was actually no point in attacking the Phoenix Tower anymore. The Black Flag Army has been withdrawing for more than six days. Even if it breaks through the Phoenix Tower at this time, it is almost impossible to catch up. Therefore, Lyman was full of respect for the defenders on the city wall. The main force has withdrawn and has lost support and supplies. These soldiers hold on to this isolated city, but they make the enemy respect them. This is a soldier, this is a real soldier. "Your Majesty" Augusta, a strong man like an iron tower, couldn't help but be moved when he saw the tragedy on the city wall: "This is the most brutal war I have ever seen since I went out with your Majesty. Even if it is to attack the Aegean Empire, When we were in the capital, we had never experienced such hardship. Facing dozens of times more enemies, the Black Flag Army did indeed perform more respectably." "Yes" Lyman let out a long sigh of relief, feeling a little lost. "When I conquered the capital of the Aegean Empire, I once said that as long as I am strong enough, there is no nation or country in this world that I cannot conquer. But now I suddenly understand that even if we win this battle and win it Phoenix Taiwan even took over the entire Eastern Xinjiang, and then the entire Central Plains. Even if one day this nation becomes the new territory of the empire, the people here will not stop resisting." He put down his clairvoyance and didn't know. What to do. This is the first time since he led the army that he didn't know what to do when facing the enemy. If we continue to attack, it seems that we will be able to break through the Phoenix Tower before sunset. After all, the city's defenders were in dire straits and their firearms were out of ammunition. It seems that the bows and arrows are almost running out. Judging from the current number of defenders on the city wall, it can be inferred that they do not have many men left. But, is there any point in conquering such a city? Even if the Opulus finally occupy this place, are they the proud ones? "Let the team withdraw." Lyman was silent for a while and then ordered in a very light tone: "Send someone to the city and tell the defenders that I will give them an hour to leave, and leave with the pride of the soldiers. They have already Having completed their mission, those who are still alive are qualified to go home with their heads held high." "But" Augusta said with some concern: "If we just let them go like this, it will have a great impact on our morale. "It doesn't make any sense anymore." Lyman said, "Even if we conquer this place, it's not something worth cheering for. Everything here has almost nothing to do with me. The reason why I ordered that Phoenix Tower be taken down." The significance is that after I return to the country to deal with the domestic affairs, the new starting point will be the Phoenix Tower. This will become the base camp for the next attack. If I take this place, I will leave Purline to guard it next time. When attacking, we can quickly control the entire Eastern Xinjiang." "Understood." Augusta nodded. When Lyman knew that Fang Jie had withdrawn, he ordered a fierce attack on Phoenix Tower. Actually it has two meanings. First, it was to test whether Fang Jie had really withdrawn or if he had any plans. Second, Phoenix Tower is too important. The reason why Hullens has been unable to completely defeat Eastern Xinjiang is not because Mu Mansion has a very powerful army, nor because of the harassment of the green forest soldiers from Eastern Xinjiang. It's because the Phoenix Tower has always been a nail in the waist of the Opulus people. Although Hullens later led his troops to bypass the Phoenix Tower, the defenders of the Phoenix Tower were able to harass the rear of the Opulus without restraint. If this nail is not pulled out, the giant Opuru will not be able to exert its power. Nailed on the waistWith just one nail, no matter how powerful the giant is, he cannot exert all his power. "An hour." Lyman said slowly: "According to the Han people's timekeeping, if they don't withdraw within an hour, I won't be blamed. I have always been full of respect for real soldiers, and I won't do it because of They are of low status and ignored. There is something terrible and respectable about this nation. Even if I want to conquer them, they will still think so." "Yes!" Augusta agreed and turned around to tell others to do it. "Sometimes I can't help but wonder When will I stop?" Lyman raised his head and looked at the sky: "I told myself that when you feel tired, you will stop. Now I am already a little tired. After taking over the Central Plains, I will not expand the territory. I will give the people ten years to recuperate and come back in ten years." Augusta opened his mouth and said nothing in the end. ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡°What did you say?¡± asked the person sitting in the dark. "A foreigner came outside and stood outside the city wall and shouted, saying that Leman respects the soldiers defending the city as real warriors. Such soldiers are qualified to leave proudly. So Leman ordered the siege team to withdraw for an hour and give Let's leave in an hour." A spark lit up in the darkness, and then a puff of smoke came out. Amid the strong smell of tobacco, the man seemed to have nodded: "Tell the soldiers to evacuate them all." The person who asked the question was obviously stunned for a moment, and immediately said eagerly: "No, the troops have all evacuated, too Danger!" The man walked out of the darkness, with a particularly solemn expression on his face: "I can leave at any time. Even if I can't kill Lyman, it's almost impossible for the soldiers to trap me. Six days is enough. It seems that Lyman was really fooled. I arranged for Chen Dingnan to wait fifty miles away with the cavalry. You and the soldiers will evacuate immediately. "This person turned out to be Fang Jie! The person asking questions at the door was Nalan Dingdong. He knelt down on one knee and said, "Lord, we can't leave." "If you don't leave, I will treat you as a disobedient military order. The ones who made the biggest sacrifice this time were the soldiers guarding the city. . They have worked hard enough to complete my plan. Now that Lyman has been fooled, it is up to me to finish this matter." "But my lord" Nalan Dingdong advised: "For me. You can't be sure of the ability of that meteorite. If the meteorite doesn't work, and you don't know Lyman very well, you would be taking a risk by staying here. The soldiers of the Black Flag Army are willing to live and die for you. But I can¡¯t just watch you take risks!¡± ¡°This is the fastest way to solve the problem.¡± Fang Jie patted Nalan Dingdong on the shoulder: ¡°Although I am not sure whether the meteorite can exert its power, the best thing now is. At least the opportunity has come. There are still many things waiting for me to deal with in Chang'an City, so don't worry, I won't let myself get into trouble. " Fang Jie looked back. Xiang Qingniu, Ye Zhuhan, Shi Wan and others slowly walked out of the darkness and stood behind Fang Jie. "But" Nalan Dingdong wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Fang Jie: "No but, you are still my subordinate and must obey orders. Now I order you to evacuate with all the soldiers and meet Chen Dingnan . Then wait for me where you are. If we don't arrive before dark Sanjinhou will tell you what to do next." Nalan Dingdong knew that he couldn't persuade Fang Jie, so he had to stand up. "Go." Fang Jie pointed to the distance: "Find a large group of people to join together. This is not a decision I made on impulse, but a choice after careful consideration. This war must end as soon as possible. I trust you, so some things should be done Let me tell you. Chang'an City is not as peaceful as you think. The reason why you are promoted is because not all of the people in the Black Flag Army are loyal to me. I have already told Marquis Sanjin what to do next. I still have to rely on you." Nalan Dingdong gritted his teeth and nodded, turned around and left. "Now, we are the only ones left here." Xiang Qingniu held an apple in his hand and chewed it: "No one knows what kind of danger we will face next. There is a more powerful force beside Lyman. The mysterious team can kill the practitioners, and Lyman himself does not seem to be afraid of the practitioners at all. In other words, what we are facing is unknown. Until now, the battle has been carried out according to the previous arrangement. It¡¯s time to get unpredictable. ¡± He smiled: "Then let's talkif this battle is defeated, we will all die in the battle, so what unfulfilled wishes do we have? I mean, if someone is not dead, go back and help the dead ones." The unfinished business has been done.¡± ¡°Count me in?¡± The last person to come out is a person that many people did not expect to appear here. Gai She "Forget it!" Xiang Qingniu nodded: "Although you were a prisoner before, you are now a comrade." Gai She was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and the other party explained: "My biggest wish is to kill you However, I respect you very much now. I admire you for being able to put aside your own roots and come here with almost all your strength to resist the foreign invasion. This has nothing to do with you directly. If it were me, I would. Maintain the foundation first and then send out troops. What you can do, I can't do. " "So, my wish has changed. Now, I just want to drink a bowl of butter tea and eat a big plate of finger meat. " Shi Wan scratched his hair and smiled sheepishly: "I don't know what I want. I just thought about it. What will happen after I die? It won't happen, because I don't even have any relatives. I suddenly remembered The soldier is still unconscious. If any of us survive, please try our best to treat him when we go back. " Fang Jie looked at him. Ye Zhuhan: "What about you?" Ye Zhuhan was silent for a while, and said calmly: "I like reading the most, but when I was in Shiwanda Mountain, there was only one book to read in the ice cave. If I die, the living will remember Pull a cart of books and burn them in front of my grave, I will be happy." "What about you?" Xiang Qingniu asked. Fang Jie smiled: "I have nothing left. If I die, no one can help me do anything, and the world will return to its original track." "Your goal is too big to be achieved." Xiang Qingniu said. "What about you?" Shiwan asked Xiang Qingniu: "Is there anything you haven't done yet, or what do you particularly want to do?" Xiang Qingniu blushed, hesitated for a while and then said coquettishly: "I'm still a virgin" Everyone was stunned. Ye Zhuhan's mouth twitched and said: "Thisit's really hard to help"
