Chapter 594: Pirate Siege
Because at this time, only by relying on the Dragon Eclipse Sword can Wu Song turn defeat into victory.
"What nonsense to talk to him, kill them!" Yang Langhou was furious, raised the Qiankun Ring, and emitted a black light.
Wu Song knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and he and Bei Zhu fought against each other's three masters, and it took a long time to lose.
Wu Song immediately made a decision, waved the Dragon Erosion Sword, and sent out the sword qi in one breath, directly taking Yang Lang and the three of them.
The black light collided with one of the sword qis, and the two sides canceled each other out. The other sword qi was castrated unabated, attacking the three of them.
Seeing that the sword qi was menacing, the three of them didn't dare to greet them, and they hurriedly dodged.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Song took Bei Zhu and fled into the distance.
They escaped from Coral City and headed for Moby Dick City.
Not long after leaving the city, he heard a trumpet and slaughtered an army from the dense forest. The army was carrying a flag with a white skeleton drawn on it, and in the middle of the skeleton's forehead, there was a king.
The pirates of the royal family have arrived.
After the Wang pirates rushed out, they bent their bows and arrows one after another, shooting sharp arrows at Wu Song and Bei Zhu.
Wu Song waved his palms and swung away the sharp arrow with the wind in his palm.
A group of cavalry rushed over from the army and slashed at Wu Song with a sword.
Wu Songxin came just right, his body shook, and he had already come to the back of a cavalryman, slapped the back of the cavalryman's heart, threw him off the horse, and he and Bei Zhu drove the horse and galloped away.
The soldiers who were obstructing them on the road were easily defeated by him.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them were far away.
Yang Langhou, Captain Redbeard, and the City Lord of Coral City chased them out of the city, and when they learned that Wu Song and the others had broken through, they all gritted their teeth in anger.
"Chase!" Yang Langhou said in a loud voice, taking the lead and chasing after Moby Dick City.
The others followed, chasing after them.
Moby Dick City is only a few dozen miles away from Coral City, and after galloping all the way, half an hour later, Wu Song and Bei Zhu took the lead in entering Moby Dick City.
Yoko and her people are gathering in front of the Moby Dick Mansion, and they are about to set off for Coral City to rescue Beizhu.
At this time, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when I saw Bei Zhu and Wu Song returning.
"Owner, you're back. Yoko stepped forward and said, only then did she see that Bei Zhu was injured, "Island Master, are you injured?"
"Don't get in the way, Yoko, you go and inform the barracks in the city, let all the soldiers go to defend the city, the pirates of the royal family will come soon. Bei Zhu said, her shoulder was bleeding freely, but now she couldn't even bother to bandage it.
"What?Wang family pirates?" When Yoko heard the news, she was really like five thunderbolts, but she was worthy of being a capable subordinate who had been training with Bei Zhu for many years, and quickly calmed down, "I know, I'll go now." ”
After Yangzi left, Bei Zhu turned to Wu Song and said, "Monk Wu Song, let's go to the city wall." ”
Wu Song nodded, and went to the city wall with Bei Zhu.
The soldiers of Moby Dick City were strictly disciplined, and after Yoko conveyed Beizhu's order, the soldiers immediately moved into action to defend the walls of the city.
Bei Zhu patrolled the city wall and saw that there were soldiers everywhere, and his heart was slightly relieved.
Moby Dick City, because of its location on the shore, is often the first to be attacked when pirates attack Midboundary Island. Therefore, the walls of Moby Dick City were built very strongly.
The walls were made of hard granite to withstand artillery attacks at close range. The city wall is about 20 meters high, and an ordinary bow and arrow standing under the city cannot hit the people on the city wall at all.
Moreover, Moby Dick City is backed by mountains and waters, and the north and west sides are against the mountains, so there is no need to defend, only two places need to be defended, only the south and east sides.
As a result, Moby Dick is an easy and difficult city to defend and can be defended by only a few people.
This is the only good news after a series of bad news.
It didn't take long for the royal pirates' army to arrive outside Moby Dick City.
Yang Lang waited for the city lord of Coral City and Captain Redbeard to stand at the front of the army, looking at Moby Dick City from afar.
The first to come were the vanguard, with only a few cavalry and scouts, most of whom were still in the rear.
Bei Zhu looked at the army outside the city, hesitating whether to take the initiative and destroy the vanguard first. But after thinking about it, I finally gave up.
Now the number of troops in Moby Dick City is small, less than a thousand. These people can just hold the walls of Moby Dick, and if they are sent out of the city to attack, even if they win, there will inevitably be casualties.
When the large army of the royal pirates arrives, it will be unfavorable to defend the city.
The current situation is very bad for Bei Zhu. The City Lord of Coral City colluded with the pirates of the royal family, so needless to say, the pirates of the royal family must have landed from the defense area that the city lord of Coral City was responsible for.
From the landing site to the area between Moby Dick City, Bei Zhu did not have a single soldier before, so the royal pirates could come to Moby Dick City unimpeded.
This is actually a taboo in the use of soldiers, and Bei Zhu should not have made this mistake.
However, after the royal pirates attacked the Middle Boundary Island a few days ago, Bei Zhu judged that they would not attack again in a short time, and the safety of the main island of the Middle Boundary Island was safe, so he sent all the troops of the island to the surrounding waters to prevent the pirates from attacking passing ships and the surrounding affiliated islands.
Unexpectedly, the city lord of Coral City would collude with the Wang family pirates and do things outside the inside.
Now that most of the troops on the Middle Boundary Island are outside, it will take two or three hours to rush back to the main island, and during this period, I don't know if Moby Dick City can hold it.
Soon, the large army of the royal pirates rushed to the outside of Moby Dick City one after another.
Artillery, engineering equipment and other weapons were also transported to the city.
At a glance, outside Moby Dick City, the Wang pirates formed a black and oppressive team, which looked amazing.
Wang Gong rode a tall horse and appeared in front of the pirate army.
"Lord Beizhu Island, you are a person who understands, you should know what to do and what not to do, now that the general trend of Zhongjie Island has gone, you should surrender as soon as possible, otherwise the people of Moby Dick City will suffer from the flames of war. ”
Wang Gong said loudly.
"You dream, even if you fight to the last soldier, I will never surrender to you. Bei Zhulang said.
"Hmph! Ignorant woman, unashamed. In that case, then there is nothing to say between us, see you on the battlefield. ”
Wang Gongle turned his horse's head and turned back into the formation.
Subsequently, the pirates of the royal family beat the drums of war and began to attack the city.
More than a dozen artillery pieces were pushed out of the position, each aimed at the walls of Moby Dick, and then, the soldiers lit the artillery and opened fire.
I heard the sound of 'boom' incessantly, and the artillery fired one after another, and the shells whistled and fell onto the city walls.
"Shoot back!"
Bei Zhu said loudly.
The artillery on the walls also fired, and the shells smashed into the positions of the royal pirates.
I saw that one by one the fire balls exploded in the position of the Wang pirates, and some of the nearby pirates were blown away, and some were covered in flames, screaming and running around, but soon fell to the ground and remained motionless.
A shell from Moby Dick City hit one of the artillery pieces in the opposing position, detonating the shell next to it.
Suddenly, after an earth-shattering sound, all within a radius of several meters turned into a scorched earth, and more than a dozen pirates were blown to pieces on the spot before they could flee for their lives.
Twenty or thirty other pirates were wounded and rolled to the ground wailing.
Both sides bombarded each other with artillery, but Moby Dick City had a city to rely on, and most of the cannonballs of the royal pirates hit the strong city walls without hurting anyone.
Moby Dick's shells hit the pirates' positions directly, causing heavy casualties to the pirates.
In this round of artillery exchanges, Moby Dick City won completely.
"Collect the troops!" Wang Gong looked at his casualties angrily, and gave an order helplessly.
"Whew!" On the city wall, Yoko let out a long exhale after seeing the pirates temporarily retreat.
"Lord, we've repelled the pirates. Yoko said happily.
"Don't rejoice too soon, it's just the first attack. Bei Zhu was not as happy as Yoko, but frowned and worried.
Wu Song sensed Bei Zhu's uneasiness and said in a low voice, "What's wrong, Island Master, is there anything wrong?"
Bei Zhu muttered, "If it's just a pirate of the royal family, then relying on the strength of the city of Moby Dick, then we can support it for a long time." But now that the city lord of Coral City has rebelled, it's hard to say. ”
"What, does the Coral City Lord know any secrets?" Wu Song said.
"The Lord of Coral City is one of the elders of the Middle Boundary Island, and when Moby Dick City was built, he was one of the people in charge. He knows the structure of Moby Dick City, and I'm afraid he'll figure out a way to deal with Moby Dick City. ”
Bei Zhu said worriedly.
"Is there any way for the island owner to deal with it?" Wu Song said.
"I haven't thought of it yet. Bei Zhu shook her head.
Wu Song frowned and thought hard about countermeasures, but he was an outsider who knew very little about Zhongjie Island, so where could he come up with any solutions.
Suddenly, someone on the wall shouted, "The pirates are attacking again!"
Wu Song and Bei Zhu hurriedly rushed to the city wall and looked down.
I saw that more than a dozen artillery pieces were launched in the pirate's position, aimed at Moby Dick City, and then opened fire.
"Fight back!" Yoko ordered.
The artillery on the walls of Moby Dick City followed suit, and the shells fell one by one into the pirates' positions.
As before, most of the pirate's shells fell on the city walls. Moby Dick's walls were so strong that the cannonballs hit them, only to blow up a shallow crater, and they couldn't shake the foundations of the walls.
And the shells of Moby Dick City, every time they fall, can almost take away a few pirates.
Wu Song's brows furrowed, and his face showed doubt. Are these pirates crazy? Why do they still attack with artillery when they know it's useless?
Bei Zhu also has the same question, she has been fighting with the Wang family pirates for many years, and knows that Wang Gong's soldiers are used to careful calculations, and every soldier's death must be used on the blade.
Sacrificing soldiers in vain like now, this is not like Wang Gong's style.
No, there must be a mystery in this.
Suddenly, Wu Song let out a 'huh'.
Bei Zhu looked at him and said, "What's wrong?"
Wu Song pointed to the position of the pirates on the opposite side and said, "Island Master, what do you think it is?"
Bei Zhu looked in the direction that Wu Song knew, and saw that behind the pirate's position, a group of soldiers passed through the position and came to the side of the artillery.
Each of them carried a wooden barrel in his hand, which seemed to contain something.
