As everyone knew, it was easier to defend a city than to attack it.
Especially for a city like Upper Barren City that had high walls, it was even more difficult. Under normal circumstances, a strong attack would require at least several times the number of troops to attack the city, and it might not even succeed.
The Northguard Marquis could easily say that he could take down Upper Barren City in a day with 100,000 soldiers?
This made the Central Prefecture Marquis feel that it was ridiculous.
"General Mo, how many soldiers and how much time do you need to take down Upper Barren City?”
"The city walls of Upper Barren City are tall, so it's hard to attack them.”General Mo looked at Barren City carefully and said,""If there are 200,000 soldiers stationed in the city, we will need at least five or ten times the number to attack this city. We will also need a large number of large-scale armaments and experts. I personally prefer to use a plan to take down this city. As for the time, I don't dare to give you an exact time.”
General Mo did not even have the confidence to take down Upper Barren City.
How was this possible?
It was absolutely impossible!
He felt like he was listening to a heavenly book.
" It's normal for you to think that it's difficult. After all, Upper Barren City is very close to Northern Barbarian City. The barbarians have put in a lot of effort to resist the Northern Battlefront Army.”"But as long as we understand Upper Barren City, it'll be easy to take it down.”
Lin Qing Yu quickly took out a map.
"Look, Upper Barren City is not a small city. Surrounding the entire Upper Barren City with high walls? "That's simply a fool's dream. Thus, we can only build enough high walls in the direction of Northern Barbarian City. As long as we go around the front, we can directly enter and attack the hinterland of Upper Barren City.”
" But there's a huge river blocking the way. It's a natural barrier. The Northern Battlefront Army can't get through...""Unless we go around Barren City. If that's the case, I think we should take Barren City first.”
The Marquis of Central Prefecture was not a pushover. He had done a lot of research on battle tactics and military strategies.
It had to be said that the location of the Northern Barbarian City was too good. It could directly lead to the Barbarian Race's mansion. Besides Upper Barren City, Middle Barren City, Lower Barren City, Ancient Barren City, Middle Barren City, and Lower Barren City, the remaining five cities were not dangerous.
The most important thing was that the distance between the five cities was quite large, and the area was too vast to be a barrier to prevent the Northern Battlefront Army from attacking the barbarian mansion.
It was precisely because Northern Barbarian City was so important that the barbarians could not sleep at night.
"No... the Northern Battlefront Army can go there. Taking down Upper Barren City might be easier than you think.”Lin Qing Yu smiled and said," Moreover, it's precisely because Upper Barren City is a natural barrier among the six cities that compete with Northern Barbarian City that there will definitely be a large number of houses, armaments, and so on. Taking down this place is equivalent to removing the heart of the six cities.”
Lin Qing Yu seemed to have victory in his grasp.
"Northern Battlefront Army, are we going to fly over? However, only Grandmasters could fly for a short period of time…It would be useless if the army couldn't cross it. Moreover, the river was turbulent, so even Grandmasters wouldn't be able to cross it easily, right?”
"Hahaha." Lin Qing Yu smiled." The barbarians think the same way, so this is an opportunity. As long as we can seize the blind spot of the barbarians, it will be easy to take down Upper Barren City!"”
"Ah?" Everyone from the Central Plains was a little confused.
"When night falls, I'll let you see the strength of our northern army soldiers!”Li Cang said confidently.
……
Time passed slowly.
When night fell, Lin Qing Yu said,""Where is General Cheng Lin?"
"Your subordinate is here!"
The general of the First Corps said respectfully.
"Get the engineering team to immediately build a bridge! Within four hours, build a bridge that could allow 100,000 troops to pass through.”
"Lord Marquis, don't worry. Four hours is too much for a mere three thousand meters!”
Soon, about a thousand soldiers appeared. Each of them carried a piece of bridge wood and began to quickly build a bridge on one side of the river. When building the bridge, in order to maintain the stability of the bridge, there were a large number of driftwood and support points below.
There were many grooves on the bridge wood, so it could be easily assembled...
"This is building a bridge?"
The people of the Central Plains were completely stunned when they saw this scene. If they did not know that this was an army, they would even think that this was a team formed by master craftsmen.
It was too fast and too stable! This engineering team seemed to have considered all the risks that could be encountered in building the bridge, such as the wind, the strength of the bridge itself, and so on...
One could feel the professionalism of this team with their eyes! But if that wasn't the most shocking thing, what was? Speed!
"Is there anything this army can't do?”
The people of the Central Plains were shocked at the beginning, but they gradually became numb. They thought about the Central Plains Army, especially the elites they thought of. The more they thought about it, the more they felt inferior.
Soon, in less than four hours, a wide bridge appeared, a bridge that spanned across the river.
"This is too ridiculous." The Central Prefecture Marquis couldn't help but say," They actually built a bridge. This will directly lead us to the hinterland of Upper Barren City!"”
In the eyes of the Central Prefecture Marquis, this was simply unbelievable.
"The craftsmanship of the Northern Borderline is so advanced.”General Mo had grasped the key point. The Northern Battlefront Army's engineers looked like master craftsmen, but in fact, it reflected the advanced skills of the Northern Battlefront craftsmen. This kind of bridge across the river was definitely not easy to build.
Just as everyone in the Central Plains was shocked, Lin Qing Yu said loudly.
"After the rest, we will start crossing the river in half an incense stick of time!”
The Central Prefecture Marquis was shocked!
He knew that he would soon see the true strength of the Northern Battlefront Army!
