Yang Rui had six generals on his side: Zhang Ning, Cheng Yu, Gao Shun, Yu Jin, Han Dai, and Ding Yao. In addition to Yang Rui's own strength, there was no way he would let this Loulan general escape.
Yang Rui didn't waste any time or energy. He stepped forward with Gao Shun and Yu Jin, two famous generals, and took down the enemy in a few moves.
A Loulan general was, at best, equivalent to a Second Grade general in the Three Kingdoms region. Even if Yang Rui were to fight him alone, he was confident that he could emerge victorious.
However, the situation on the battlefield was constantly changing. After all, Tonglo City was right behind them. It wasn't impossible for unexpected situations to occur. Even though Yang Rui intended to test out the Loulan general's combat style, he still chose the most efficient method in the end.
After capturing the Loulan general, Yang Rui forced him to consume the black pill he had obtained from Zhang Rang and threw him into the stone prison of the Castle in the Sky.
At the same time, Yang Rui had exposed his 50000 troops. There was no longer any need to hide his strength. He simply brought out the one hundred heavy catapults he had brought with him from the Castle in the Sky and started attacking Tonglo City.
It was worth mentioning that the heavy catapults required Sixth Grade soldiers to operate. However, some of Gao Shun's Formation Breaker soldiers had already advanced to Sixth Grade. They were more than capable of operating the heavy catapults.
Gao Shun's Formation Breaker soldiers could reach Seventh Grade at most. However, there seemed to be a bottleneck after Fifth Grade. For a long time, the Formation Breaker soldiers had remained at Fifth Grade. It was unknown whether this was due to the attributes of their Formation Breaker soldiers or a deliberate restriction by the system.
It wasn't until recently that the Formation Breaker soldiers began to show signs of a breakthrough. It was similar to the situation of advancing to the next grade. However, it was much more difficult than advancing to the next grade.
Their Formation Breaker soldiers were quite powerful. Yang Rui already had many of these soldiers under his command. They had greatly increased Yang Rui's combat strength.
Of course, not every famous historical general could possess a Formation Breaker soldier.
Even generals with Formations Breaker soldiers had different upper limits of power. Gao Shun's Formation Breaker soldiers had an upper limit of Seventh Grade. Sun Jian's Tiger Soldiers also had an upper limit of Seventh Grade. Meanwhile, Cheng Yu's Silver Crossbowmen were only Fifth Grade.
Creak! Creak!
Boom! Boom! Hualala … "
"…"
As the one hundred heavy catapults fired, boulders rained down stones from the walls of Tonglo City and destroyed large swathes of the city. Rubble was sent flying.
The defense of Tonglo City was so weak that Yang Rui thought it was only a level-one town when he saw it earlier. How could it possibly withstand such a powerful attack from the heavy catapults?
"Kill!
Kill! "
"… …"
After only a quarter of an hour, Yang Rui's troops had flattened Tongluo City with the heavy catapults. After the city wall collapsed, half of the moat, which was not very wide in the first place, was filled up.
The drawbridge outside the east gate had also fallen down due to the dragging of the wall. Yang Rui ordered his men to avoid the area near the drawbridge. Once the east gate and the surrounding city walls were flattened, Yang Rui ordered his men to charge over the drawbridge.
Once they charged into the city, it would be like a tiger entering a sheep pen. The already empty garrison of Tongluo City was not enough to stop Yang Rui's troops. The army quickly pushed to the center of the city.
Perhaps due to the architectural style of Loulan, there was no inner city at the center of Tonglo City. Instead, it was a tower that was comparable to the height of Tianshou Pavilion in the Japanese civilization.
Although the tower was not low, its circumference and diameter were not large. Compared to buildings like Tianshou Pavilion, it was much thinner. It reminded Yang Rui of the Big Wild Goose Tower in 'A' City in the real world, and it was much taller and thinner.
With such a building characteristic, even if there were archers on each floor of the tower for defense, it was useless against Yang Rui's men. This was because Yang Rui did not need to directly attack the tower. Instead, he only needed to pull up the heavy catapults from the back.
With the thin and weak body of the central tower, it was impossible for it to withstand a few rounds of heavy catapults. When the tower collapsed, any defense would be useless.
"Creak!" "Creak …"
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Hualala …"
"…"
Another meal's time passed, and Yang Rui had already rearranged the 100 heavy catapults under the central tower. With a wave of his hand, a rain of boulders shot out.
"Don't smash anymore, we surrender …"
"Surrender …"
"…"
After just one round of projectiles, the Loulan defenders on the central tower were already convinced. They shouted loudly to the bottom of the tower, afraid that Yang Rui's men would not understand. At the same time, they pulled the white flag and waved it.
Looking at this habit and posture, it was very similar to the way the West surrendered in reality. Yang Rui guessed that the Loulan civilization was a branch of the Western civilization.
Seeing that the other party was willing to surrender, Yang Rui only thought for a moment before waving his hand to stop the heavy catapults from continuing to attack. He also ordered the other party to immediately abandon the tower and surrender.
The other party only hesitated for a moment before coming out of the central tower according to Yang Rui's request.
What made Yang Rui frown was that although these Loulan defenders kept saying that they wanted to surrender, they only gave up resisting. They did not directly convert to the same faction as Yang Rui and were still in the opposing faction.
However, Yang Rui understood after thinking about it. It was similar to the situation with the foreign races during the Outlander Tournament. This time, the Loulan defenders were also from a different civilization than Yang Rui, so it should be difficult to make them surrender in one go.
Of course, Yang Rui was not going to be polite with them. He immediately ordered the soldiers of the Breach Battalion to tie up all the Loulan defenders and throw them into his storage ring.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Blazing Sun for completing the first phase of the quest to obtain the Loulan civilization's sacred weapon, the Tianshan Goat Horn. Quest conditions have changed. In fifteen minutes, you will face the counterattack of the Loulan reinforcements. Successfully repel the enemy forces will complete the quest and obtain the Tianshan Goat Horn …"
Just as Yang Rui threw the last batch of female NPCs into the storage ring, there was a very ordinary female NPC that could not be placed into the storage ring. She attracted Yang Rui's attention.
Yang Rui carefully examined the female NPC and finally found a hanging accessory on her waist. After Yang Rui picked it up, he received a very unexpected system notification.
This system notification stunned Yang Rui. Only then did Yang Rui realize that the item in his hand should be the Reputation Points Mission's target item, the Tianshan King Goat's Horn!
However, this was a little too smooth. For a moment, Yang Rui was a little stunned.
