Zhang Ning's attempt to use the Flying Carpet to unleash the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain was undoubtedly very successful. Not only was the scene of the attack spectacular, but the effects were also very real. Under the 'route' that Zhang Ning rode the Flying Carpet, almost everything that could be burned was burned to ashes by the flaming rain.
Especially at the entrance of the tunnel, all the tents that Liu Dai had built around the entrance had been burned down. None of the soldiers stationed there had been able to escape the sea of fire. The casualties could be said to be extremely heavy. The large forest around the entrance of the tunnel was also affected. The fire spread and only stopped when the entire forest was burned to ashes.
Zhang Ning's Dao Spell Attribute was as high as 89 points. In addition to the 180-220 Dao Spell Damage from the Heavenly Spirit Magic Sword – Soul, her basic Dao Spell Damage output was between 269-309 points. With the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain's additional 100% damage, her Dao Spell Damage had exceeded 500-600 points. At the current stage, the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain's damage was naturally very high. It was normal that the flaming rain could burn down the forest.
Since the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain was very effective when used together with the Flying Carpet, Yang Rui naturally wanted to make full use of it. As the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain was an additional skill of the Heavenly Spirit Set, it had a cooldown time of one hour. Yang Rui simply used Zhang Ning as a 'bomber'. Every one hour, he would send Zhang Ning out. Every time she was sent out, she would create a river of flaming rain.
In this way, Zhang Ning used the Flying Carpet to plough through the east, west, and south of Chang Yi City. During this time, she had obtained more than 200,000 Dukedom Contribution Points, Storyline Points, and Achievement Points for Yang Rui. In other words, when Zhang Ning set down three fires, she actually killed seven to eight thousand of Liu Dai's soldiers. This should be enough to intimidate Liu Dai.
The speed of the Wind Carpet was also five times faster than the speed of a horse. Yang Rui was not worried that Zhang Ning would be in any danger on the Wind Carpet. Even so, when Zhang Ning returned from setting fire for the third time, Yang Rui actually found an arrow at the corner of the Flying Carpet! In other words, Zhang Ning's spellcasting was still somewhat dangerous!
As the sky gradually brightened, the possibility of Zhang Ning's safety being threatened increased. Yang Rui naturally wouldn't risk Zhang Ning's safety. Therefore, after Zhang Ning used the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain for the third time, Yang Rui didn't let her continue. The war could be fought slowly. What if something happened to Zhang Ning? It was too late for Yang Rui to regret.
Using the Flying Carpet to release the Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain was originally a last-minute attempt by Yang Rui. Moreover, he had only used it three times. However, the effect was surprisingly good! Zhang Ning's three fires not only completely eliminated the threat of the underground tunnel to Chang Yi City. Many of Liu Dai's soldiers were also killed. Moreover, it also greatly affected the morale of Liu Dai's soldiers. At the same time, the morale of Qiao Mao's soldiers in Chang Yi City greatly increased. This was something that Yang Rui hadn't expected.
Perhaps it was because of Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain that Liu Dai didn't send soldiers to investigate the underground tunnel for the rest of the day. Other than that, he didn't take any other measures to attack the city. It could be said that this created more opportunities for Chang Yi City's defense.
Early in the morning, when Yang Rui went north to check on his cavalry, he discovered that the 15000 cavalry from Big Mountain City would arrive near Chang Yi City in half a day. Since Liu Dai hadn't attacked the city for an entire day, Yang Rui's cavalry had already arrived at a town north of Chang Yi City before evening and had temporarily set up camp.
Yang Rui assigned 5000 cavalry to Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao so that they could each lead their own troops when they needed to move separately. As for Yang Rui, because he didn't have any support skills, he was only prepared to act as a scout and mediator. He wasn't going to lead the troops. At this point, Yang Rui's generals and cavalry were all in place and could move out at any time to pose a threat to Liu Dai's troops.
After experiencing Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain, Liu Dai had already lost the underground tunnel. Coupled with the arrival of Yang Rui's cavalry, although Liu Dai still had the advantage in terms of military strength, he would still have to pay a huge price to take down Chang Yi City.
"Charge up the city walls and take back our home. The first to reach the city walls will be rewarded with 10000 gold coins. The first to capture Qiao Mao will be rewarded with 100000 gold coins! Attack the city! "
"Kill! Kill … "
“.....”
Just as Yang Rui was organizing his cavalry and preparing to launch a surprise attack on Liu Dai's various camps after nightfall, Liu Dai's troops had also launched an attack on Chang Yi City!
Liu Dai had probably realized that the underground tunnel dug by Yuan Shao's troops could no longer be used. Moreover, he had to face the threat of Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Flaming Rain at any time. If he delayed any longer, it would only be a waste of energy and reduce his morale. After a day of consideration and planning, Liu Dai chose to attack the city.
It could be said that Liu Dai's choice was not unwise. His judgment was also very accurate. If it was a day or two ago, Yang Rui could only watch him attack the city. At most, he would team up with Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao to create some trouble in a small area. Or Yang Rui would use his Flying Carpet to harass Liu Dai.
However, the situation now was very different. Yang Rui had already arranged his troops to attack Liu Dai. Now that Liu Dai's troops were attacking the city with all their might, the undefended rear was exposed to Yang Rui. Of course, Yang Rui would not let go of such a good opportunity.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
“.....”
Not long after Liu Dai started attacking the city, Yang Rui had already divided Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and all the cavalry troops into three groups. They attacked Liu Dai's troops from the east, northeast, and southeast respectively.
When Yang Rui was assigning tasks, he also instructed Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao to make use of the cavalry's mobility as much as possible. Their main goal was to harass Liu Dai and reduce the casualties as much as possible. They only needed to coordinate with Qiao Yan's troops in Changyi City.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Who's there?!"
"Ah!"
“.....”
Liu Dai's attack and Yang Rui's harassment happened almost one after the other. This was destined to be a restless night! Although Liu Dai's troops were making a lot of noise, they were unable to cover up the sounds of fighting and the sound of horse hooves coming from behind them. At the same time, there were endless torches that were flickering all over the place.
"What's the situation behind us? Who is disturbing us from attacking the city? "
Under the cover of the night, it was difficult for Liu Dai's side to determine the number of attackers. They couldn't even figure out the identity of Yang Rui's troops. Thus, when Liu Dai discovered the situation and inquired about it, it took a long time for his troops to figure out the exact situation.
"Soldiers, look. The east, north, and south of the city are definitely Prefecture Overseer Blazing Sun's cavalry! I, Qiao Mao, have already said that Prefecture Overseer Blazing Sun will not abandon his allies. With Prefecture Overseer Blazing Sun's help, we will definitely be able to defeat Liu Dai's attack! Soldiers, go all out. From now on, every soldier of Liu Dai's will be rewarded with 10 gold coins. Kill! "
"Kill!"
“.....”
Unlike Liu Dai's situation, Qiao Mao, who was on top of the north gate tower, was overjoyed when he saw the flickering torches outside and could faintly hear the sounds of fighting from all over the place!
Because Qiao Mao had a good view from his position and Yang Rui had mentioned the cavalry to him before, Qiao Mao immediately guessed the identity of Yang Rui's cavalry. He used this opportunity to motivate the soldiers guarding the city. After hearing Qiao Mao's words, the soldiers' morale naturally rose by a lot.
"Sou … sou sou …"
"Run!"
"Hiss! Hiss … "
"Kill!"
“.....”
Yang Rui and Zhang Ning were attacking Liu Dai's forces on the east side of Changyi City. They were also the first to clash with the enemy. Zhang Ning immediately unleashed a Fire Rain of Heavenly Spirits on the enemy. Even though she didn't cast it for long, Liu Dai's forces had no chance of escaping. At the same time, the surrounding soldiers had also witnessed the power of the Fire Rain of Heavenly Spirits. They quickly fell into chaos and scattered in all directions.
The formation of these soldiers had been disrupted by the Fire Rain of Heavenly Spirits. Yang Rui immediately ordered his troops to charge forward. The enemy soldiers were even more disorganized, and many of them were killed in an instant. Moreover, almost none of the soldiers on Liu Dai's side were willing to put up a fight. Their defeat continued to spread towards the center of Liu Dai's army.
In terms of combat prowess, Yang Rui's Fourth Grade cavalry soldiers were still far inferior to Fifth Grade special forces like the Iron Guards. However, in terms of field combat, mobility, and other aspects, the cavalry's advantages were on full display right now.
In addition to Zhang Ning's' Heal 'support skill, the HP of Yang Rui's cavalry doubled. Moreover, there was an automatic recovery of 10 HP every second. Their HP was greatly guaranteed. As long as they didn't receive a fatal attack, their HP would quickly recover.
Even though Gao Shun and Zhang Ning's forces didn't have a skill like the Fire Rain of Heavenly Spirits, the two's combat power and support skills were very impressive. Therefore, while Yang Rui and Zhang Ning were tearing a large hole in Liu Dai's army, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were also causing great trouble for Liu Dai's army.
"Stop the siege! Stop the siege! "
At this time, Liu Dai was also anxious. In just a short quarter of an hour, his army had been attacked by three groups of cavalry from the east, northeast, and southeast. Even now, he still had not figured out the identity and scale of the enemy!
"Order all soldiers to withdraw from the city walls within an arrow's range. Strictly guard the four gates of Changyi City. Deal with the enemy first before attacking …"
