Chapter 573: The Enemy Army Comes to Help
Xuanyuan Feng stood proudly, he had been the city lord of Ming City for a long time, and he was one of the few people in the Tongming Continent who had broken through the immortal path, and he naturally exuded a strong aura on his body. The two glanced at each other, Xuanyuan Feng took the lead, his sturdy body swept out like a big bird, and his palms flew up and down in mid-air, only to see the violent qi surging out, and quickly formed a sharp arrow shape and shot out towards Na'an. Forming the Gang Qi into a physical shape is not something that ordinary martial artists can do, this not only requires deep true qi, but also requires the martial artist's control of true qi to reach the level of supernatural energy, Xuanyuan Feng showed a powerful attack that only a strong person can perform as soon as he came up, it seems that he is not ready to keep his hand.
Na An is a clear-eyed person, he has seen a lot of knowledge by the side of the King of Ten Thousand Souls, and he can see the ferocity of the attack at a glance, Na An did not dare to hold it up, and swept back violently, and at the same time quickly sealed his hands on his chest, only to see violent energy fluctuations appear, and then a sphere containing infinite energy roared up to meet it.
Both sides are first-class masters, and as soon as they fight, it is a head-on collision of huge energy, only to hear the dense explosion sound endlessly, and the powerful energy explosion can make the onlookers stunned. The strength of the two sides is between the two sides, and they can't tell the winner in a short time, Na'an unleashed the energy ball and bombarded it again and again, while Xuanyuan Feng urged a strong Gang Qi counterattack, and the two sides exchanged more than a dozen moves in an instant, for the two of them, this kind of high-explosive fight is extremely draining for everyone, and after only a dozen moves, the two of them felt a large loss of true qi in their bodies, and the ground under the feet of the two of them appeared as if they had been bombarded by cannonballs.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Feng couldn't attack for a long time, Xia Yucheng, Qin Hui and others who were watching were a little unable to sit still, they had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they had an absolute advantage in the army, and there was no need to fight one-on-one.
And the Four Lakes Monster immediately led two thousand soldiers and horses to meet them, and the two sides fought fiercely in the wilderness outside the city, whether they were generals or ordinary soldiers, they were all experienced in a hundred battles and brave and good at fighting, and the fierce scene of the fight was needless to say.
The two sides fought back and forth, and Xuanyuan Feng's side, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, quickly gained the upper hand, and they also launched an even more ferocious attack, trying to annihilate all their opponents. The lake monster troops who are at a disadvantage will not blindly act recklessly, they have the city as a barrier, if they retreat into the city, everything will be fine, and at this time, the king of all souls, who was watching the battle on the city wall, also ordered Na'an and the four lake monsters to retreat through the way of transmission.
The lake monsters fought and retreated towards the city gate, Xuanyuan Feng, Xia Yucheng and others led the army to chase, and the King of Ten Thousand Spirits had already deployed troops on the city wall to cover the withdrawal of their own troops, only to see dense sharp arrows roaring down, Xuanyuan Feng's troops had to stop the pursuit and resist, and the lake monster troops took the opportunity to flee into the city.
A vicious battle caused Xuanyuan Feng's side to lose many soldiers and horses, although they had an absolute advantage in strength, but in terms of individual combat ability, it was the Lake Monster's troops that were superior. The enemy army had fled into the city, and it was impossible to storm at this time, so Xuanyuan Feng and Xia Yucheng had to lead the army back to the camp.
At night, the generals discussed in the big tent, and now Wangxi City is almost isolated, even if it is besieged but not attacked, it can be safely won, but the generals do not intend to take the method of starving the opponent, so it will be a great loss of time, after all, the food and grass in the city are quite sufficient, and the enemy's troops are more than enough to support for several months.
Of course, the best way is to lure the enemy out of the hole, but the enemy army who has suffered a defeat is only afraid that it will not be easy to fight, then there is only a strong attack, if the current troops are a bit risky to attack, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Xuanyuan Feng sent people to Mingcheng to draw troops and horses, and in addition, the military camp is also stepping up to produce siege equipment and armor and other equipment, so as to enhance the offensive and defensive capabilities of the troops in the siege.
Of course, this series of preparations takes time, so in the next few days, the generals divided their labor, some went to the city to call for war, some people stepped up to make all kinds of equipment, and the enemy's only possible reinforcements were from the neighboring Anjin City, and now the three young men of Hufu are in cahoots with the King of Ten Thousand Souls, and they will ask for help from home, because of this, Qin Hui and Yan Zhao were arranged to lead two thousand soldiers and horses to set up an ambush in the place where they must pass on the way.
On this day, Qin Hui, who had been waiting for several days, finally waited for the news that the enemy army had come to help, and it was Fu Yang, Xiao Yun, Meng Jiacheng and others who went to inquire about the news. Everyone quickly assembled their soldiers and horses, and Qin replied: "How many soldiers and horses does the enemy have, and how far is it from us now?"
Fu Yang said: "There are many enemy troops, and it is roughly estimated that the number is more than eight thousand, and it is only one or twenty miles away from us. ”
Qin replied: "Damn, there are so many soldiers and horses, it seems that Xiu Rong has fought hard to save his three trapped sons, and it will be very difficult for us soldiers and horses to resist, you quickly return to the base camp and let the Xuanyuan City Lord send more soldiers and horses over." ”
Fu Yang took the order and left, and the others were fully prepared to fight the enemy, although they were inferior to their opponents in terms of strength, fortunately, a few days of rest made the soldiers energetic, compared to the distant enemy they had a great advantage in physical strength, not to mention that there were heavy troops in the rear, and it was still uncertain who would win or lose in this battle.
Qin Hui and Yan Zhao ambushed two thousand soldiers and horses in a dense forest, as long as the enemy appeared, they would lead the army to attack, time passed quietly, and the figure of many enemy troops gradually became clearly visible, as the intelligence said, the number of the team like a long snake was more than eight thousand.
Hurong's troops slowly approached the forest, and suddenly the sound of countless arrows breaking through the air came, only to see dense sharp arrows shooting like raindrops, and the unprepared brigade of men and horses was instantly shot over dozens of people, but after all, they were well-trained sergeants, and after a period of panic, they quickly organized a counterattack, and the archers on both sides launched a confrontation.
Several rounds of arrow rain were fleeting, and then the two sides started a hand-to-hand fight, although Qin Hui and Yanzhao only had 2,000 troops, but they waited for work at ease, and their abundant physical strength made them not fall into disadvantage at the beginning of the battle.
The two sides fought for a while, and the gap in strength gradually appeared, Xiu Rong, who came back to his senses, commanded eight thousand soldiers and horses to fight steadily, and the situation on the field quickly tilted to his side, and Qin Hui and Yan Zhao had already expected the existing situation, they led the soldiers and horses to fight and retreat, and went towards their own base camp little by little.
And Xiu Rong did not dare to let go of the courage to chase, now his first task is to rush to Wangxi City to meet his three sons, if he rashly attacked and fell into the enemy's tricks, the consequences would be unimaginable, and the two sides maintained a posture that did not seem to be a decisive battle.
This kind of cautious battle ended quickly, the reason was that Jingyang quickly moved nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses, and the strength of the two sides was instantly drawn into a draw, and Qin Hui and Yanzhao, who were fighting at home, quickly launched a strong attack, and the troops on both sides with equal strength did not have a careful temptation this time, it was like a desperate struggle to the death, and the intensity of the scene can be imagined.
At this time, the King of Ten Thousand Souls who was trapped in the city also knew that the Xiurong soldiers and horses who came to help were blocked by the enemy, he quickly led the army out of the city to help, and their dispatch immediately attracted Xuanyuan Feng to chase after him, and the soldiers and horses on both sides were immediately divided into two places to fight separately, because Xiurong's eight thousand soldiers and horses contained a large number of Xuanyuan Feng's troops, so that the two sides did not have the previous disparity in strength, and the two sides fought for several hours.
After this battle, Xiurong's soldiers and horses successfully rendezvoused with the King of Ten Thousand Spirits and entered Wangxi City, and a fierce battle also allowed them to discount nearly a thousand soldiers and horses, of course, Xuanyuan Feng, as an opponent, also suffered a lot of losses.
