After being simply bandaged, Giulio stood on the wall again under the protection of the guards.

The constant harassment and sneak attacks made the defenders on the wall very helpless and angry.

But they had no way to fight back. They could only let Ma Chao and the others arouse the anger of the defenders little by little. Giulio also tried to use bows and arrows to fight back, but when the defenders took out the bows and arrows that had not been used for a long time from the armory,

It was discovered that not many people in the army could use bows and arrows! Finally, more than two hundred soldiers who had used bows and arrows jumped out. In the end, they found that their shooting range was far inferior to Ma Chao's second army, so they had no choice but to give up.

Ma Chao and the others fired all the two barrels of arrows they had on them, causing more than 300 casualties among the defenders. Although only more than 50 defenders were actually killed, they caused serious fear in the hearts of the defenders.

When fear reaches a certain level, it turns into madness.

Seeing that the heat was not enough, Ma Chao rode his horse to the city. Seeing Giulio reappear on the city, Ma Chao smiled playfully.

"Hey! You bastards in the city, listen, your Grandpa Ma Mengqi led the troops to fight here, why don't you surrender quickly? Maybe your Grandpa Ma will spare your lives as soon as you show mercy!" Ma Chao moved towards the Qi River.

The city shouted loudly.

Giulio had a sullen face, clenched his fists, his face was red and he was breathing heavily.

Bullying goes too far! Bullying goes too far!

Giulio swore he had never been so angry!

Even though his brother had framed him many times, he had never been so despised and humiliated.

"Damn it! Damn it! I'm going to kill them!" Giulio slammed the solid wall in front of him and spat out each word through gritted teeth.

"General! Don't act impulsively!" The city lord hurried to the city wall, just in time to see General Julio who was about to explode, and immediately stepped forward to stop him who was about to run away.

Julio took a deep breath and stared angrily at Ma Chao and the Second Army who were laughing at them outside the city. Julio understood that if he impulsively gave up the strong and tall city wall at this time, leaving the city would mean that he would be attacked by a large number of people.

During the cavalry charge, Giulio knew that he would definitely die in such a situation! So he helplessly and resentfully allowed Ma Chao and the others to laugh and tease him.

When Ma Chao saw that the effect was not obvious, he immediately understood that there were sensible people in the city, or in other words, there were calm people who were organizing remonstrances.

Frowning, Ma Chao didn't have any good plan to lure the defenders out of the city.

At this moment, a rider came from behind.

After finding Ma Chao, he took a few steps forward and whispered a few words in his ear. Ma Chao's frown relaxed, "Sure enough, a great idea!"

After getting the plan, Ma Chao quickly led two thousand vanguards, and after one last mockery towards Lys City, he retreated in a swaggering manner.

The Lord of Reese breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the enemy troops retreating from the city. But Giulio frowned.

"Huh... It seems that the enemy has seen that our city wall is strong and all the troops are united, so they have no choice but to retreat!" The city lord deliberately spoke loudly to the defenders on the wall, hoping to boost the morale of the army.

When Julio heard the words of the city lord, he nodded inconspicuously. In this situation, someone needs to encourage the morale of the army. Although he doesn't know what tricks the enemy is playing, as long as the morale of the army is stable, there is a chance to win this battle.

Giulio quickly dispatched the reconnaissance cavalry in the city to investigate in the direction where Ma Chao and others retreated.

Afterwards, he ordered the city guards to keep their uniforms on and their soldiers to be on guard at all times, and then retreated from the city wall with the city lord.

After Ma Chao and others retreated from the city, they returned to their own army.

Zhao Yun seemed to be engaged in a battle between heaven and man, struggling in his heart.

"Alas, this kind of approach is really not my intention, but if I want to quickly attack the city of Lys, this is the quickest and most convenient method." Zhao Yun was looking for a reason for himself in his heart.

"Absurd! Is it okay to do whatever it takes to win? Then where is the justice you insist on in your heart?" Another Zhao Yun was refuting that reason.

Zhao Yun kept hesitating in this inner struggle. Ma Chao came in front of him and saw Zhao Yun who was in a trance. He looked doubtfully at Dian Wei who was silent at the side.

When Dian Wei saw Ma Chao looking at him, he curled his lips and raised his shoulders, indicating that he didn't quite understand.

Ma Chao did not interrupt Zhao Yun's contemplation immediately, but stood aside and waited quietly.

Time passed by, and Zhao Yun's silence continued. Ma Chao was a little impatient and wanted to break the silence several times, but he swallowed the words again. Ma Chao knew that Zhao Yun must be making a decision, and it was that

This is a very important decision. But with the passage of time, the situation of the Second Army becomes more and more difficult.

Just when Ma Chao made up his mind and prepared to wake Zhao Yun, Dian Wei was the first to speak out.

"Commander! If the decision is difficult, why not let evil be the evil one!"

Zhao Yun was interrupted by Dian Wei's voice, and then looked blankly at this man whose instinct was to use his brain too much. Dian Wei looked at Zhao Yun calmly, "Commander, I don't know what you are hesitating about, but if it is for the sake of the Lord,

, I am willing to become an evil ghost in hell!"

Ma Chao looked at Dian Wei in surprise. He did not expect that this rough man, whom he always considered to be a brainless man, could say such words.

Zhao Yun sighed and seemed to have made an difficult decision.

"Yes! For the sake of my lord, I, Zhao Yun, am willing to jump in my heart even if it means hell!"

"Commander! For the sake of my lord! Meng Qi is willing to fall into the abyss!" Ma Chao grabbed the dragon riding point beside him and beat his chest violently.

Zhao Yun nodded slightly, then looked at the determined Dian Wei and Ma Chao, stood up suddenly, and took a deep breath.

"In order to quickly attack Chris City and complete the strategic leap, Mr. Jia Xu gave me several strategies before setting off."

Seeing Ma Chao's expression change, Zhao Yun continued: "As you may think, Mr. Jia Xu's strategy somewhat conflicts with our previous moral cognition."

Dian Wei's expression remained unchanged, he didn't know whether he understood or not.

"One of the strategies is to face an important town defended by solid walls!"

"Commander, you only need to tell us how to break the city. Evil doesn't care about that!"

Zhao Yun closed his eyes slightly, then opened them suddenly, "That plan is to drive away the wolf and devour the tiger!"

Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, then he frowned slightly, and finally took a deep breath, "Commander, give the order!"

"Commander, give the order!" Dian Wei raised his head and said in an awkward tone.

Zhao Yun looked at the two men and said firmly: "In the name of Zhao Yun, commander of the Second Army Theater Area, I give this order!"

"Order! General Ma Chao, leading 3,000 cavalry, capture men of suitable age within thirty miles west of Lis City. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

"Meng Qi's order!" Ma Chao put his feet together, held a spear in his right hand and hit his chest, then turned around and strode away.

"Order! General Dian Wei, leading 3,000 cavalry, capture men of suitable age within thirty miles north of Lis City. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

"Evil comes with orders!" Dian Wei said in a low voice, also performed a military salute, then turned and left.

"Come here! Give me an order! The 10,000-strong army is divided into five detachments! Led by a general, within a radius of fifty miles from the city of Lys, men of suitable age will be captured from villages, small towns, and official roads to serve as slaves! Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished.

kill!"

Order after order was passed quickly among the Second Army. The general who received the order had almost the same reaction as Ma Chao at that time. His eyes lit up, then he frowned, and finally he firmly promised to complete the task!

Zhao Yun looked at the sun that was slanting slightly to the west, without any wavering in his eyes. "Now that I have embarked on this road, even if I end up going to the abyss of hell, I, Zhao Yun, will go on without any regrets!"

In the city of Lys, Julio and the city lord were discussing the next defense.

"General, this time the enemy forces in Dragon City are coming fiercely. They moved from the Eden Defense Area to the Harvest Plains within a few days, ruining the empire's carefully prepared plan. It can be seen that their actions must be thunderous, and our Lis City is

Their next target!" The city lord said worriedly. The current situation is not optimistic. Lys City has become an important starting point for the enemy and us to compete for time. Whoever can take the lead will win the opportunity!

"Well, the Lord of the City is right. Julio also believes that the enemy force is strong now, and today's provocative behavior is precisely because they are eager to capture the city of Lys. Fortunately, the Lord stopped it in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!" Julio was a little bit

He said fearfully, yes, if he had led the defenders to pursue Ma Chao in a fit of enthusiasm, and had fallen into Zhao Yun's plan, I am afraid that the city of Lis would have changed hands by now.

"General, there is no need to be polite. This is what I should do. I hope the general will stick to the defense next."

Next, the two of them and a guard general began to discuss countermeasures. Then they anxiously waited for the scouts who had been sent to investigate the city earlier.

These scouts, who have been given high hopes by Lis City, also play an important role in Zhao Yun's plan!

In the east direction of Lys City, a fast horse was galloping. Rocky was a scout from Lys City.

Rocky, who was born in the city of Lys, is twenty-three years old this year. A few years ago, he encountered a change in his family and had to join the army. With his resilience and cleverness, he was selected as a scout and rode an enviable horse. But the scout

The highly dangerous position of a soldier is the profession that is most likely to be killed in battle! Fortunately, Lis City is an important food and grass town in the rear area. There is no war all year round, so the mission of the scouts becomes a routine patrol. Until the Dragon City army suddenly attacked

Come on, before Rocky left the city, there was no news from a total of thirty-six Lys City scouts. Rocky knew that they were all dead and had been hunted down by the more elite cavalry of Dragon City.

After receiving the order, Rocky bravely rode out of the city and explored the east. Along the way, Rocky's heart was extremely tense. He didn't want to die, at least not now.

Suddenly, there was a billow of smoke and dust ahead. When Rocky saw the movement ahead, he felt a pain in his shoulder and fell down from his horse.
