The best ring

After paying a heavy price, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom withdrew, leaving only corpses on the ground and wounded soldiers wailing.

As for those trapped in the formation, they wanted to go back but couldn't, and the final result was that they died under the arrows from the top of the city.

Shi Wenhao's face was very ugly, and the faces of the generals around him were not much better.

Such a result was obviously not what they wanted to see, nor was it within their expectations.

The generals of Shuiyue Kingdom, including Shi Wenhao, did not take the army of Heishui Kingdom seriously. In their opinion, as long as they charged, they could capture Linshui City, and at night, they could hold a celebration banquet in Linshui City.

However, now let alone capturing the top of the city, they didn't even touch the edge of the city wall, and even lost a lot of soldiers during the charge.

It can be said that in this first battle, they fought very badly, and while they suffered heavy losses, they hardly posed any threat to the defenders of Linshui City.

Shi Wenhao turned around with a sullen face. He didn't want to look at the battlefield again.

"Set up camp immediately, transport the injured soldiers to the rear for treatment, and quickly capture the people in the surrounding cities. I want to take over Linshui City within three days!"

"Yes!"

The outside of Linshui City began to get busy. Under the watchful eyes of Wu Fan and others, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom began to set up camp.

On the top of Linshui City, everyone looked much more relaxed. The previous tension and anxiety almost disappeared, and many people had smiles on their faces.

"It is said that the army of Shuiyue Kingdom is very strong, but I think it is just so-so."

"That's right. They have traveled for such a long time, but they actually thought of attacking us without resting. Now, they have suffered."

"Who set the trap outside the city? It's amazing."

"I don't know. It should be arranged by General Peng. I have said it before. With General Peng here, even the army of Shuiyue Kingdom can't break into Linshui City!"

"That's right!"

......

On the top of the city, the defending soldiers talked a lot, but compared with before, they were full of hope to defend Linshui City.

In this battle, they had almost no losses, and the army of Shuiyue Kingdom fled back in embarrassment, and many were killed and wounded. This greatly enhanced the self-confidence of the defenders. Even some generals who had been persuading Peng Chuan to surrender to Shuiyue Kingdom had a change of mentality at this time.

Maybe, they can really win!

Maybe, they can really get rid of the control of Shuiyue Kingdom!

Everyone's heart is full of expectations.

However, only a few generals, including Peng Chuan, knew that the traps and formations outside the city were arranged by Wu Fan. They did not know how powerful these things were before. Now that they saw them with their own eyes, they were not less amazed than others.

Hearing the people around him talking, Peng Chuan asked Wu Fan: "Sir, do you want me to explain it?"

What Peng Chuan said was naturally about the formations and traps. Those who were not aware of the credit attributed this to him, which made him a little terrified, fearing that Wu Fan would think that he wanted to take the credit and make Wu Fan unhappy.

However, when Wu Fan heard what Peng Chuan said, he smiled and said: "No, you just need to know these things, there is no need to explain to others."

Wu Fan did not care about what others thought of him. He just needed Peng Chuan to be loyal to him. He originally planned to help Peng Chuan get promoted. At this moment, a little misunderstanding made Peng Chuan's status higher in the hearts of those soldiers, which was also what Wu Fan was happy to see.

Seeing Wu Fan say this, Peng Chuan did not insist.

"Sir, the traps you set are too powerful. With those traps, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom will never get close to the city wall." Peng Chuan said to Wu Fan.

However, Wu Fan shook his head and said, "No matter how powerful something is, there is a way to crack it. It is unlikely to rely on those things to stop the attack of the army of Shuiyue Kingdom. Zhuge Liannu still needs to be built, and the city defense facilities must continue to be improved. Although we repelled their attack once, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom will not give up easily. They will attack again."

Peng Chuan nodded. He did not believe that the army of Shuiyue Kingdom would retreat. That was unrealistic. After all, Shuiyue Kingdom was a superpower, and their Black Water Kingdom was just a small country. The army of Shuiyue Kingdom could not retreat from their Black Water Kingdom just because of a setback. If that were the case, Shuiyue Kingdom would become a laughing stock.

As the army of Shuiyue Kingdom withdrew from the battlefield, the offensive and defensive battle of Linshui City temporarily stopped. The two armies inside and outside Linshui City were busy. Both sides knew that this battle had just begun. More intense and cruel battles were still to come.

Seeing that the battle had temporarily stopped, Wu Fan said hello to Peng Chuan and left first. As for Luo Yue, Wu Fan did not bring her this time, but asked her to stay with Peng Chuan for a while and learn battlefield command.

Wu Fan attached great importance to Luo Yue, and Luo Yue was smart enough, so Wu Fan would not be stingy in training her.

Before leaving the game world, Wu Fan went to the teleportation array again, but this time, he did not disturb Pei Yu.

Everything was normal around the teleportation array. The Shuiyue army's attention was indeed on Linshui City. There was not much attention paid to the rear of Linshui City. This was also related to Peng Chuan's previous dispatch. Before the Shuiyue army arrived at Linshui City, Peng Chuan had already transferred all the troops in Heishui that were willing to follow him to resist the Shuiyue army to Linshui City. In this way, in the entire Heishui territory, except for Linshui City, there was no city with troops willing to resist the Shuiyue army.

The generals of Shuiyue obviously knew this, so their attention was on Linshui City. What's more, Wu Fan also arranged the teleportation array in another direction of Linshui City, so the people of Shuiyue naturally paid less attention to this place.

Wu Fan saw that everything was safe here and the teleportation was still proceeding in an orderly manner, so he left with peace of mind.

Then, he teleported back to the real world.

However, the game world will not stop running because of Wu Fan's departure.

After Wu Fan left, the armies of Black Water and Water Moon were still preparing for the next war, and in the city far to the south of Yanfeng, Hou Zhong and his men were making final preparations.

As the sky gradually darkened, Hou Zhong and his men were ready to go to the city lord's mansion to assassinate the eldest prince Zhao Xuan.

"Are you all ready?"

"Ready."

"Okay, let's go!"
