Chapter 857: Broken Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse

Zhang's master of using poison once had a conflict with the Tang Sect, and some middle- and lower-class disciples fought to win, resulting in relatively large casualties.

Later, the two masters fought in a ring.

The outcome of the ring is unknown, because the ring was not held in public, but in the basement where the Zhang family was researching new drugs.

Although the results were not announced, since that competition, both families have strictly restrained their disciples, and there has been no such friction since then.

Since then, the two families have also formed marriages, and every year a woman marries into each other's families.

The dowry itself is not so important, what matters is the dowry of each dowry.

The dowry on both sides was a pair of skilled pharmaceutical workers.

Once they enter each other's families, they will never return to their own families.

Now Zhang Zhongjing's descendants, the modernist advocate is leading his people to arrange a defensive line.

Wherever his people took special care, not a single mouse would try to run over.

His family didn't come here too much, only 10,000 in total, but their defensive efficiency was at least equal to 50,000.

In addition to the traps arranged everywhere with these murder potions, the bows and arrows, knives and guns they used were soaked in poisonous juice.

The descendants of Zhang Heng, who cooperated with them, were ingenious in organ news and urban defense fortifications.

Zhang Heng inherited the skills of the Mo family in a large way, and they handled the design and construction of the entire city defense.

In addition to these general defensive functions, they also brought their own tools for defending the city.

Now, Zhang Heng's descendants are contemporary, and Tian Yuan is installing a tool.

The name of this tool is an iron broom. They stood side by side on the city wall, as long as there was an opponent attacking the city, whether alone or in groups, the long arm of the iron broom stretched out, and swept the outer wall of the city wall, all of them were swept seven or eight feet away.

Therefore, the strong combination of these two cards to guard the south gate is Gu Jiaxing's most assured defensive section.

The defensive mission of the East Gate. It is undertaken by the Zhuge family.

The contemporary head of the family Zhuge Xuanji. Having inherited all of Naizu's tactics and art of war, including the skills of wooden oxen and horses and pretending to be gods, he is now setting up a gossip array outside the east gate.

Don't talk about the specific content of this gossip array, at least in the formation. It is one hundred and eighty times larger than an ordinary Bagua Array.

In addition to this, the Bagua Array is held as the first line of defense. He also made great efforts in the defense of the city.

One of these efforts. It is to put the latest generation of wooden cattle and flowing horses on the head of the city.

These wooden oxen and horses are, of course, the shape of cattle and horses, and are suitable for those who guard the city.

They are mixed with real people, and it is impossible to tell which is true. Which is fake.

He vowed to surprise the visiting Twist and what heavenly army.

Zhuge Xuanji mobilized 20,000 elite soldiers of the family to go to the city wall, of which 10,000 were warriors, and the other 10,000 were mainly manipulating and using formations and other techniques to attack the enemy.

The difference between the two can be distinguished from the color of the clothes, among which the black-clothed are all formation mages, while the soap-clothed are all warriors who fight.

These 20,000 people are not all of the Zhuge family, and about one of them is a man of school age.

Zhuge Xuanji had the same idea as Jiang Jizhou, he didn't think that the officers and soldiers could hold the north gate, unless pie fell from the sky, relying on the luck of the sky, the besiegers deliberately let them go.

So he placed 20,000 men to the north of the Quilted Family, and made preparations with two hands, 10,000 to provide support, and the other 10,000 to intercept the defeated officers and soldiers.

There is also a big family, Gu Jiayu did not arrange for them to defend the city, but let them be responsible for supplying the people's livelihood and combat needs throughout the process, this family is the descendant of Fan Li.

Fan Bei, the contemporary head of the family, is definitely a genius who makes money in business, and jokes with others that he just closes the door, and those investment and coins are also cheap and run to his cash cabinet.

Therefore, when he heard that he was not allowed to let his Fan disciples go to the city to guard, he patted his chest.

"The whole supply for this period of time, I have covered it all! If those heavenly troops and twisters propose to spend money to buy and withdraw the army, I will also cover it! Hehe!"

"Why did you Lao Fan change his tone this time? Last time, you said that you wouldn't give a penny to the twister!" Gu Jiaxuan asked suspiciously.

"Haha, this your brother is not as keen as my businessman! Judging the situation and hurting people's lives! I think this time Nanyang, hanging! So I'd rather bleed, as strong as a broken city and become nothing!"

Gu Jiaxuan suddenly had a bad thought.

As soon as they were ready, the overwhelming heavenly army surrounded them!

The Chinese army is a well-organized celestial army, and Li Kaifang, deputy commander-in-chief of the middle route of the Northern Expeditionary Army, personally commands it.

In front of his Chinese army, six generals lined up, they were Huang Yanduan, Xie Jinsheng, Li Tianyou, Tan Yougui, Wei Mingfu, and Cao Dexiang.

Historical man, these seven people were killed by the Manchus on the same day!

Li Kaifang is the hero of the ages who left a photo and watched the enemy execute him!

These people now serve as the commanders of field divisions of the Celestial Army.

Li Kaifang brought a total of 70,000 elite soldiers of the Heavenly Army.

On both sides of the Chinese army, there are two huge teams of twisted troops.

On the left side of Li Kaifang, Gong Deshu, the leader of the white flag of the Twist Army, is a military advisor with unparalleled wisdom in the Twist Army.

The Twist Army led by him was brought from the Bianlianghuai region to support the uprising here.

His army numbered 100,000 men.

To the right of Li Kaifang, there is the Twist Army near Nanyang, originally they were relatively scattered, especially after Gu Jiaxing adopted a austerity policy, all the ten counties in the Nanyang Basin were all released from defense, if it was in the past, they would have rushed up and robbed the property, in fact, this was also the ultimate goal of their previous uprisings.

But now that there is a unified plan of action and a common goal, the twisters of the Nanyang Basin have also been quickly concentrated, and together with the Heavenly Army, they will participate in the encirclement of Nanyang.

Their team is also 100,000 people, and the leader is Niu Ben, a local leader of the Twisted Army, who is very brave and very righteous.

All the way. Gong Deshu has already introduced to Li Kaifang the prefect Gu Jiaxing and the situation of the five local families.

According to Gong Deshu's calculations, if only the official army is regarded as an opponent, he will never have a meal to capture Nanyang.

But once these families are involved in defending the city, it will be an uphill battle!

Playing well is a pyrrhic victory.

If you're not careful, you're likely to fail.

Because every family is powerful!

This is only the surface power, and their hidden power is really unfathomable!

So. He gave Li Kaifang's Jianyì. It is to do the best possible to correct the neutrality of these families, and of course it is better to take them to the kingdom of heaven!

Li Kaifang is now feeling a headache!

There have been reports from within the Celestial Army that they have been in the greatest trouble since the uprising. It is the rebellion of these great families. Therefore. Mai Ke asked everyone to report to the General Headquarters when encountering this kind of confrontation.

Mai Ke was inquiring about the situation of Lianghuai at the general headquarters, and heard that Li Kaifang had met the five great families, and it was likely that he would have a violent conflict with them. I decided to go immediately.

Originally, he wanted to go alone, but after thinking about it, he went to the six primordial stations and brought six groups of mixed primordial special forces.

With a slight delay, there is already a war on Nanyang's side!

According to some of the city defense arrangements known in advance, the Celestial Army adopted the tactic of encircling three and missing one, that is, encircling the east, west, and south sides, and dominating the north gate and letting it go, and not encircling it.

This is a very simple tactic, until these officers and soldiers are the weakest and have no guts, and if they have the opportunity to escape, they will be defeated without a fight.

It must be that the officials and soldiers are the main masters of defending the city, and as soon as they leave, those families will become meaningless in defending the city.

Originally, whoever was the lord of the city would pay tribute to the water, there was no need for you to die or die.

There are basically no loopholes in this calculation, but unfortunately it has not been realized.

The main reason for not realizing it is that the guards of the North Gate have a very strong relationship with Gu Jiaxing.

As soon as the heavenly army surrounded him, Gu Jiaxuan went to the north gate and said on the spot that he would live and die with the city!

At this moment, the chief soldier Tutana had no other way, he had to accompany Gu Jiaxing!

There was no movement at the north gate, and the other three roads had to attack hard!

The attack on the right side started first, and a big twist of 10,000 people burst up!

Although the venue outside the east gate was a little different from usual, they didn't care at all!

How can these peasants, who are accustomed to activities in the wild Yellow Mountain, care about the potholes?

Waiting for all 10,000 people to step on that flat field, suddenly heard a loud bang, and 10,000 people suddenly disappeared!

Niu Ben was frightened, and he was so angry that he thundered again!

Why is it that 10,000 people are gone?

I can't help but be secretly afraid, fortunately, I have changed my usual habits, and I am not the first to rush up, otherwise I will be gone!

It doesn't matter if I'm dead, the key is to delay things! What about the 100,000, no, wine bowl, 90,000 troops?

This is a pair of guys in strange costumes coming out of the city wall, spitting fire in their mouths and shouting in unison!

"Wuhou cleverly arranged gossip and ate 10,000 soldiers in an instant!"

Niu Ben's face turned pale when he heard this, no wonder he was so vicious, it turned out to be the descendant of the famous Zhuge Liang.

I was suddenly nervous.

Zhuge Liang's reputation is too terrifying, and he is a fierce man who is not afraid of heaven and earth.

However, Niu Ben deserved to be Niu Ben, and this sudden fear made her feel ashamed, and she immediately said angrily: "Go up to two big twists!

Twenty thousand twists rushed out from both sides of the square, and when they approached the city wall, everyone set up their bows and released arrows, and the long arrows were like wild bees that exploded their nests, and they all rolled towards the city!

The city was full of soldiers defending the city, and they were also desperately shooting arrows down!

After killing five or six thousand people at the rate of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self-losses, the Twist Army finally shot down all the defenders on the wall!

Another feature of these fallen defenders is that they are all dressed in crimson!

The twisters swept away the obstacles, shouted and climbed the city wall!

Everyone raised their arms and shouted to celebrate the breaking of the city!

Suddenly, the red-clothed soldier who fell stood up again, and stabbed the blade into the stomach of the twisted army next to him!

The twisters were taken by surprise, and in the excitement of breaking the city, they were stabbed to the ground in pieces!

As the enemy fell to the ground, these red-clothed defenders who had just fallen to the ground stood up steadily, as if they had just been wounded and fell to the ground, without any effect on them.

There are only a few dozen twists with excellent martial arts. I escaped the assassination just now, and then I got up with most of them!

These are not only extremely high martial arts, but also the grappling with the twisters is like a move, so that these twisters don't even have a chance to escape.

A few people were entangled and cornered, so they had to exchange their lives for their lives, seeing that they couldn't dodge a fatal knife, and they also looked for the enemy's fatal place to stab!

Although he was taken a beating, he definitely didn't have a small life, but in exchange for the enemy's life, he still didn't suffer a loss.

Before falling to the ground. Glancing at the enemy. They all perished, and they were blind to death.

However, I suddenly saw that the guy who had been stabbed just now had nothing to do. The knife is still there. Still alive!

Hell yes!

At a glance. There was no blood on the enemy's body at all!

No wonder they wore red, it turned out that they wanted to hide the bloodless truth!

"They're not human......"

Before he died, he suddenly realized. Desperately trying to inform his companion of this secret, but even if he used all his strength, his voice was as small as a mosquito, I wonder if anyone heard it?

In the end, he still ended up with a blind eye!

Thankfully, his efforts worked.

One of the Twisters closest to him heard his last shout.

"What? They're not people?"

It so happened that the man who had killed someone and also killed happened to come over, and the knife was still hanging on his stomach.

None of this is dead?

I was feeling strange, probably because it had been hanging for a long time, and I was moving around, and the knife fell off!

I couldn't help but look at the knife, huh, there was no blood on the knife?

He suddenly understood that the brother who had died was talking about this person, not a person!

Mortally wounded and not dead, the knife pierced into it without seeing blood, of course this is not something that people can do, they are really not people!

"These people in red are not people!" this one understood, and shouted!

When he had finished shouting, he slashed at what stood in his way, staggered at it, and then leaped off the wall.

Several other people also wanted to be like him, but they were entangled by those red men who were alert, and they didn't have much effort, and they fell to the ground and died.

The two big twisters of the second attack all died, and only one escaped!

Niu Ben had never encountered such a big loss, and his heart was so painful that he cried out with a big grin!

The people who died were all his little friends.

He adjusted his situation and began to ask for details.

Li Kaifang was in charge of the attack at the south gate, and he just sent a few ten-man teams to make a tentative attack.

It's these ten-man teams, and the defense that poked out of the south gate can be regarded as impregnable!

During the attack, half of them fell unconsciously, and when they were brought back, they were either unconscious or blackened, apparently guided by something unfamiliar.

The other half of the people are even more simply, walking and walking without a trace, no one alive, no corpse dead.

Seeing such a weirdness, Li Kaifang knew that it was a famous family made by a big family, but fortunately he didn't make a big move, otherwise the loss would have been even more heavy!

I don't know if the other two roads are cautious, but he once greeted everyone and asked everyone to be cautious, and it is best to make a tentative attack first, and only after finding out the enemy's situation will he act on a large scale.

He was more at ease with Gong Deshu, but he didn't dare to say it to Niu Ben, that guy fought bravely and was almost strategic.

He didn't know that it was this Niu Ben who had already suffered heavy losses, and that the east gate was more than ten miles away from the south gate.

As he thought, Gong Deshu and Jiang Jizhou of Ximen fought in a dignified battle, which was a competition of strength, and he sent a medium-sized twister to attack the city, and the attack and defense were fierce, and there were casualties among each other.

Although Gong Deshu is resourceful, he has to work the city wall, and there is not much room for maneuver, and there is nothing to be done for a while, and the battle situation is in a stalemate.

If there is no good way to break the stalemate, this siege war will definitely become a war of attrition and a protracted war!

This is unacceptable!

Because they had to expand eastward, to cooperate with the rebel armies in the Lianghuai region, which was the main battlefield.

However, this Nanyang can't be left to survive, leaving this trouble, and in the future, they will make trouble from behind and affect the strategic layout of the two Huai.

At this moment, Mai Ke finally arrived.

He convened an ad hoc meeting and found the heads of the three directions and asked them to report on the situation.

Li Kaifang is calm and stable, and Gong Deshu has a normal expression. Only Niu Ben is like a mourner.

"I'll say it first!" Niu Ben was most anxious, because so many brothers had died! If he hadn't remembered that he was the commander, he would have rushed to the city to avenge the dead brothers!

So he described the process and condition of the two great losses.

He still doesn't know what happened to the 10,000 people who disappeared in the square for the first time, but Mai Ke knew that he must have been defeated by the enemy's formation as soon as he heard it.

According to various phenomena, Mai Ke concluded that it must be Wuhou's Bagua Array.

However, it is the first time I have heard of such a big formation, and it can eat 10,000 people at a time, which is not the accumulation of normal gossip arrays.

The archetypal Bagua Array is generally aimed at one person, at most a group. No more than ten people.

This one is very interesting. Take some time to figure it out!

Mai Ke is also the winner of the hunting heart, not to mention that if he doesn't like it now, he can't do it, 10,000 lives are in it.

As for the 20,000 people lost in the city, Niu Ben finally figured it out. Those who fought with them for a long time are not people!

That's a dummy. It's a dummy pretending to be a real person!

Mai Ke asked for some more details. Knowing that those people were injured and did not die, and no matter how big the wounds were, they did not bleed, and only then did they know that they were indeed dummies!

Line up Zhuge Liang's strange toys. Mai Ke concluded that it was an improved version of the wooden ox flowing horse!

This Zhuge family is really full of opportunities!

Especially when they came up with the idea of letting these people wear red clothes to cover up such a flaw that would not bleed, Mai Ke had to express his admiration! It's not a big deal, but it's very important!

It seems that the people of the Zhuge family did not stick to the old bottom of their ancestors, but not only innovated, but also made the demonic Wuhou tricks even more demonic.

Mai Ke sighed, fortunately he came over, otherwise, let these twisted troops attack the city with brute force, I don't know how many people were killed.

Then, Li Kaikai and Gong Deshu also reported their own situation.

Mai Ke immediately decided to postpone the attack on the south gate, while the west gate continued to attack the city, sending two mixed elemental teams to reinforce him, and he himself went to the east gate.

Along the way, Niu Ben still continued to feel sorry for himself, and he had not yet recovered from the many casualties, and Mai Ke knew that he could not blame him, but he could blame the enemy for being too cunning!

Mai Ke comforted Niu Ben all the way, and thought about how to treat this Zhuge family all the way.

When he arrived at the east gate, he already had a countermeasure to the Bagua Array and the Wooden Ox Flowing Horse!

The gossip array involves many brothers, and I'll talk about it later;

So, he transferred four mixed elemental teams and ordered: "Aim at the red-clothed men on the opposite wall, set fire! burn them all, not a single one will be left!"

The pyrogen experts in the mixed team, hearing this order, are overjoyed!

Set fire to it now!

It seems that I have never received such a heart-wrenching order!

What's wrong with the boss today?

Nearly fifty flames swept towards the city!

Then there was a bigger fire dragon, it turned out to be Mai Ke himself!

These wooden oxen and horses dressed in colorful clothes are actually high-level puppets, and they fell into a catastrophe all of a sudden!

As soon as the tongue of fire rolled, the red clothes on their bodies were burned to ashes, and their wooden bodies flowed out!

The next step was that the wood was burned, and some of them even screamed!

Eventually, the metal on their bodies was melted, and nothing in the world could resist the burning of these original fires!

It was only three minutes before and after, and the improved wooden ox and flowing horse, which was invincible not long ago, were burned to the ground!

Niu Ben was dumbfounded!

Even if he had ten thousand dreams, he couldn't think of his great revenge, so he took revenge!

The "not a person" who made him helpless was completely finished like this!

He pinched his thigh hard, felt the pain in his heart, and then jumped up and screamed with joy: "Good burn! Erhezi, big dog, you can rest in peace! Your enemies are all in hell!"

In the process of destroying these wooden oxen and horses, Zhuge Xuanji watched the whole process, it was not that he didn't want to save it, but after trying his best, he still had nothing to do, so he could only watch the crystallization of these hard work be destroyed!

This is the result of several lifetimes of hard work in their family!

I've never missed a game before, and now I'm not spared!

This contrast is too great, so that he, a character who is close to a demon, has lost his mind for a moment!

However, he soon came to his senses, alas, the myth of Zhuge Wuhou's invincibility was shattered like this!

In the future, the family can no longer rely on these skills of the ancestors, even if they have made great improvements!

After he lost his mind, he quickly felt a burst of relief, and sure enough, he was still unparalleled in wisdom!

However, he still had luck with the Bagua Array, which he had improved by himself, and the power was hundreds of times greater than that of the previous model!

However, to his disappointment, that thing was not destined to become his dependence!

In that square, about fifty people began to excavate!

This is the earth-primordial experts of the Mixed Elements team, and they have started the show they are good at!

I saw these people working together, no matter what it was, they all dragged it out from underneath, and then broke it and threw it eight feet away!

This is Mai Ke also joined in, and with a whoosh, a large piece of wine glass in the middle of the three zhang square circle was poured out, and then with a violent shaking, the body was shattered, and it was thrown ten zhang away!

Seeing Zhuge Xuanji's heart trembling, it's over!

That's the heart of the Bagua Array!.

(To be continued......)
