Chapter 623: The meeting was halfway through, and the enemy attacked the city

Sandy carries a top-grade replenishing potion with him. This precious potion allows him to take magic recovery potions up to seven times a day, thus always maintaining ample magic reserves.

With such powerful magical support, Sendy is able to kill extremely high-value targets with amazing accuracy.

Faced with Sendi's terrifying strength, the enemies were completely helpless, because even if Zhuangzhuang flew to a height that was unreachable for ordinary people, they would not be able to see him at all.

At the same time, another warrior, Hawkeye, was responsible for observing the surrounding terrain and targets. His extremely sharp eyes were like lightning, and any slight movement could not escape his eyes, even a small field mouse could never escape from his sight.

The two sides fought fiercely for about five or six hours. After a long battle, the enemy finally realized that they could not break through the city in one go and win, so after some initial attempts, they reluctantly chose to retreat, leaving behind the bodies of more than 10,000 elite knights.

Seeing the enemy retreat, our soldiers immediately breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this battle was extremely difficult. If it weren't for our battle mages who held on to the city wall and provided powerful firepower support, the situation would have become very critical.

Fortunately, these battle mages showed extraordinary strength, making the city defense work go quite smoothly.

At this moment, General Huai En came forward with two deputy generals. Tan Aili stood up quickly and witnessed the three generals saluting her.

She quickly returned the greeting and asked, "General, what is your name? Do you have important matters to attend to? Please tell me slowly..."

"Your Highness, I am Huai En Nissan! More than half of my troops have been killed or wounded, approximately 4,000 killed and 7,000 wounded. I request to rest and recuperate."

Tan Aili asked with concern: "Okay! Who can take over the general's duty in guarding the city? I will immediately order them to change guard."

Huai En thought that the Marshal might not be easy to talk to, so he asked them to continue defending the city. They could continue fighting with such casualties, and it was also natural not to allow them to change guard.

The essence of the tactic of war of attrition is to persist until the last moment and achieve the final victory. When one's own side becomes a desperate soldier, if you can inspire their fighting spirit deep in their hearts and let them fight the enemy desperately, then they can burst out with amazing combat power, thus maximizing the benefits.

At this moment, Huai En was in a particularly good mood. After a hard battle, he not only got a precious opportunity to rest, but also his elite troops were kept intact. In this way, his position in the army was naturally as solid as a mountain.

At this moment, a soldier came hurriedly to report: "Your Majesty, all the troops under General Moro Kerson are here, in good condition, and are very suitable for the task of defending the city..."

Hearing this news, Tan Aili, who was standing aside, nodded slightly to show her approval, and then asked:

"How many troops does General Moro have under his command?" After all, she was considering whether to replace the general to command the battle, so she had to find out the troop strength situation of this unit first.

After getting the exact number, Wynn was overjoyed. It turned out that Morro Kersong led a mountain division of 16,000 people, and this army was almost fully staffed, and did not suffer too many casualties in the previous round of fierce fighting. Such a strong strength was truly amazing.

Huai En thought to himself: If this general is just a sneaky, cowardly person, then he must not be allowed to continue to stay in this important position;

But if he is indeed a brave and skilled general, then this battle will surely be a great victory. Thinking of this, Huai En was full of anticipation for the upcoming victory.

Tan Aili decisively ordered: "General Huai En, please wait a moment! I will immediately arrange for General Moro to come and replace you. According to the current situation, the enemy is likely to launch another fierce attack in a short time. We must race against time and must not delay the opportunity..."

As the order was issued, the entire military camp suddenly became busy, and a thrilling offensive and defensive battle seemed to be imminent.

The logistics troops are busy in full swing. The people set up their iron pots at home to cook delicious food for the front line. With Tan Aili's arrival, supplies will soon arrive, and mobile banking will soon promote the circulation of currency in Zhennan City.

The common people work for the military and earn a considerable income. Even if the wheat in the fields outside the city rots, every household can get seeds and compensation, and all the soldiers and civilians can unite to fight against the bandits.

Not long after the two sides changed guard, the enemy attacked the city again, but this time the priests were a little trembling and had to chant scriptures to give themselves courage. They were willing to accept the fate even if they were killed by Senior Sendi and regarded it as martyrdom.

The horn sounded, and the whole family watched as densely packed enemy troops rushed over. Archers and crossbowmen counterattacked from a distance, while the other soldiers were all in high spirits to welcome the enemy's siege.

The generals of various units were commanding on the front lines, and the main force of Zhennan City was well-trained all day long and was not afraid of provocations from the enemy.

Tan Aili stood up lightly and went down the city wall without hesitation, leaving the fierce battle scene behind. The reason why she left the battlefield so decisively was not because of fear or escape, but a decision made after careful consideration.

This batch of mountain divisions has demonstrated impressive strength and quality, and their overall performance is quite outstanding. As long as the commander can remain calm and command and dispatch wisely, the city wall should not be in too much danger in a short period of time.

The battle situation at this time has gradually fallen into a stalemate, which is almost inevitable. Although 3,000 sharpshooters have arrived, the role they can play in this siege battle is relatively limited.

Tan Aili couldn't help but wonder if these sharpshooters could possibly conduct operations behind enemy lines. After all, there was a depth of more than fifty miles between the two lines of defense. If the strategy was used properly, unexpected results might be achieved.

However, Tan Aili knew very well that the city wall would be able to hold on no matter what. In this case, she felt that she should go to the rear to check the logistics supply situation. It was also crucial to ensure that the soldiers fighting on the front line could eat hot and delicious food during the battle.

The supplies here were mainly delivered by troops dispatched by Phoenix County, most of which were carefully marinated beef and mutton. Tan Aili knew the key role of these senior generals in this mission, so she planned to take this opportunity to have more contact and communication with them, and strive to have a deeper understanding and familiarity with them in the next few days.

Moreover, the war situation in this land is much more complicated than initially imagined. According to reliable intelligence, there are as many as dozens of countries in the south who are involved. The official definition is the Maya Alliance, and it must be said that this name is indeed very appropriate and vivid.

Faced with such a complicated situation, Tan Aili feels that the responsibility on her shoulders is heavy, but at the same time she is full of confidence and fighting spirit.
