Chapter Eighty-Four: The Siege

On the far horizon, a thick, long black line slowly appeared.

With the rumbling footsteps, breaking through this quiet sky, echoing outside the nine night clouds, the black line gradually appeared in front of the world, so that people saw a grand and shocking scene.

Tens of thousands of ghost youths lined up in a huge phalanx formed a turbulent wave on the earth, moving forward in a neat and rhythmic rhythm. With each step, the ground shook slightly, as if an earthquake was coming.

The body, which was nearly twice as tall as an ordinary person, formed a terrifying sea of people with no end in sight, and the black wave swept in, and even the air was a little heavy and depressed.

They have their eyes on this majestic-looking city, they are the most powerful of the ghost people, stoic, hard-working, and fearless of death. They also looked solemn, with an unyielding fighting spirit and will, they came to this battlefield, they wanted very little, but it seemed to them that it was so difficult.

They stopped a hundred meters away from the front of the city, stared at the city, gasping for breath, like hungry wolves, and the air began to fill the air with an eerie atmosphere of slaughter.

The soldiers at the head of the city were a little stunned by the huge momentum of the enemy at this moment, and many, many young soldiers who had never seen a ghost clan were already trembling with fear. Until a soldier who reacted quickly finally shouted at the top of his voice: "Hurry up and report to the Hou Ye, they ...... They attacked. ”

Alarm bells are ringing.

The alarm bell is the rallying call, and Lin Jiajun picked up his weapons at the first time, put on his armor, and ran to his position according to the arrangement made by the drill a few days ago. The latest and fastest updates

The soldiers of the Yeyang family of Northern Qin also gathered at the west gate after the assembly horn sounded, as the only army in the city that had fought against the ghost clan, their task was to act as a mobile squad to help the Lin family army at the head of the city assist in defense.

Quietly above the city, after the rallying horn sounded, in a blink of an eye, a grove of guns rose in front of the trees, and in front of the originally empty shooting hole, there were also the same gloomy faces and cold eyes, and what was even more terrifying was that the unique siege crossbow of the Han Dynasty was also carried up to the city tower by the Lin family army at this moment, and the steel crossbow arrows as thick as spears were already ready to be tired under the traction of the elastic leather rope, exuding a cold light of Huo Huo, compared to the fact that even the powerful ghost clan could not resist this lightning-fast killing weapon.

Most of the Lin family's troops at the head of the city were veterans who had been trained countless times in the Great War, even if there were occasional recruits mixed in. But they were also accompanied by two veterans. They are cold-blooded, cruel, and murderous. Maybe they are lacking in morale and confidence in this war, but at this critical moment, they still know how to stand up, not to mention that in their bones, they are the invincible Lin family army in the world.

The city wall of Longxi County is still spacious after being filled with soldiers, and several generals on horseback have also appeared. They instigated their horses to gallop across the city, shouting loudly and giving various orders to boost morale, while carefully watching the ghosts who were approaching to see what their opponents were going to do.

And the guard standing at the head of the city is not Wuhou, but his cronies, the general of the chariot cavalry, Bi Kongqing, the legendary successor of Wuhou.

After a while, the cultivators finally climbed to the top of the city, mixed in the ranks of the soldiers, and they were also quite nervous looking at the unusual ghost soldiers under the city.

Lin Jiajun's morale rose after the arrival of the cultivators, of course, they rarely saw cultivators, at this time, the legendary cultivators stood on the same front as themselves, and they couldn't help but feel more confident, and they didn't seem to have the fear of the unknown ghost clan at the beginning.

And on top of a high tower in the inner city, the Great Han Wuhou held on to the handrail beside him, ignoring Zhou Ziqian's obstruction, and carefully looked at the "enemy" in front of him. ”

Lin Jinrong has fought countless battles this time, and this one is the one he is most unsure of, so he is a little nervous and even a little hesitant.

Sweat was pouring from his hands holding the railing, and the herald standing behind him with several herald flags hurriedly handed over the cotton cloth at his side.

Xing Jianqiu was still sitting on the handrail of the tower, and he didn't seem to care about the ghost people who were close in front of him, but instead set his eyes on the cultivators who had just walked towards the city.

The herald standing behind Bi Kongqing on the city wall stretched out two red flags and held them high above his head, signaling that after the preparation was completed, Lin Jinrong let out a long sigh of relief.

The calm before the great war was as silent as the silence before the storm.

The soldiers on the city wall, looking at it close in front of them, could even feel the muscles on the thighs of the ghost clan trembling.

Shaodian looked at the sun above his head, but it didn't reach his head, and rubbed his hands vigorously, obviously not wanting to attack.

"It's sunny. "Obviously, the young patriarch of the ghost clan, who had never felt such blazing sunlight in the extremely cold land and caves, enjoyed the feeling of bathing in the sun. Not only him, but even the nearly 10,000 ghost clan prime-aged people who were ready to attack seemed to have weakened a little bit when the sun jumped above their heads.

"Sons, do you like the sun? Shaodian's voice was not loud, but it was enough to reach the ears of every ghost warrior clearly.

"Like. The crowd shouted.

"Very well, as long as we take this city, we will have light in the future, and we will never have to go back to that cold, damp cavern. Shaodian's words paused slightly. Then the voice suddenly rose and said, "Then, let's kill it." ”

Like wild horses on the loose, less pre-war encouragement is very realistic, and it pierces their hearts, of course they know that the sun is good, so they don't want to go back.

The running ghost clan team completely lost the order of the assembly, and even a little disorganized.

The most important thing is that they didn't carry any siege equipment, and they didn't even have some decent weapons, and the only ones that looked like weapons were the ghost men running in front of them with wooden clubs that were not thick. But if they want to jump on the nearly five-zhang city wall, even if they are as strong as oxen, it is difficult for them to climb to the sky.

"Throw. Bi Tianqing gave an order, and countless rolling stones were mercilessly thrown down from the city by the Lin family's army.

Hundreds of boulders weighing more than dozens of catties flew into the air like meteors at the same time, and after drawing a shocking parabolic curve, they smashed into the ground in front of Longxi City with a thunderous momentum.

It was a daunting and shocking scene, with a rain of stones in the air, with a roar of death, falling to the city, smashing several ghost people who were about to approach the city wall and had no time to dodge.

Stones fell in the crowd, taking lives, blood spraying and shooting out flowers of death.

Just at the moment of the start of the war, dozens of ghost clan youths had already fallen.

The corners of Shaodian's eyes twitched, and he felt a little sad in his heart, but who said that this is not what you have to go through to achieve your goal.

However, at this moment, they became the first victims of this heroic battle.

And the thing that made him chill finally appeared, and the siege crossbow that was lifted with a cold light was finally carried out by the blue sky and Qing's order.

The siege bolts glowing with cold light slammed towards the swarming ghost people, like a flowing lightning bolt, crashing into the crowd.

Most of the ghost people who had never seen siege crossbows did not have time to dodge, so they were pierced by the galloping crossbow arrows, spilling blood all over the ground, and then continued to gallop backwards until the crossbow arrows lost all their speed, and then fell to the ground in a depraved manner, leaving only blood stains and corpses where the crossbow arrows passed.

The crossbow arrow that shot into the center of the ghost clan even took the lives of six ghost people in one fell swoop.

A strong cheer erupted in the city, and the idea that the ghost clan was nothing more than this exploded in the hearts of these brave Lin family soldiers.

The powerful power of the crossbow arrows almost made the attack of the ghost clan stagnate, but the range of the crossbow arrows was limited after all, and after the ghost people ran quickly beyond the effective strike range of the crossbow arrows, the siege crossbows that were still exuding infinite power just now were like scrap metal.

And at the moment when the morale of the Lin family's army soared, a scene that no one could have imagined suddenly appeared, and the slightly rising momentum instantly fell to the bottom.
