Chapter 777: Tragic Street Fighting
For a city of cultivating immortals run by forces, there are two places that are the most important, one is the formation center in the city, which controls the formation of the whole city, and the second is the camp of the city guards.
Generally speaking, the center of the formation is located in the center of the city, where there will also be a management office, a law enforcement hall and a city guard, which will become the management center of the city, and the city guards are distributed near the city gate, and as many large camps as there are city gates.
There is no special feature in the structure of Shenmu City, many people have been to Shenmu City and know what the structure inside is, so as soon as the Nanzhou army entered the city, they went to these places to kill them.
Lin Xiao, as the supreme commander, stopped after a while, but began to deploy troops, kill most of the enemy, and then clean up one by one.
"Report, Qi Yu Alliance Lord, the enemy has set up an ambush in the City Lord's Mansion, and more than 10,000 people of our army are trapped"
"Come to the rescue"
"Alliance leader, I'll go"
Lin Xiao roared loudly, and a voice sounded, and Lin Xiao saw that it was a Divine Void Period monk from the Qi Kingdom who led the team and rushed away.
"Enlighten the alliance leader, a large number of enemy troops have gathered near the south gate, forming a battle formation of 3,000 people."
"Ma Langfei, support the South Gate"
Lin Xiao shouted loudly again, and Ma Langfei responded and led the team to kill him, and forcibly broke the battle formation of 3,000 people.
Lin Xiao continued to deploy troops, first sent people to occupy the four corners of the city, and then slowly advanced to the center, Lin Xiao had enough men and horses on his hands, and he could gather superior forces to clean up street by street.
"Qi Qi Alliance Leader, the rescue near the City Lord's Mansion failed, and Shen Lao Zu died in battle"
"What, come with me"
After a while, someone came to report that the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city did not bring in the Nanzhou monks, and also lost a Divine Void Period general, Lin Xiao was immediately furious, and personally led the team to kill him.
When Lin Xiao came to the center of the city, most of the more than 10,000 monks who had been trapped before had been killed, and they were trapped by a killing array, there were only hundreds of enemy troops inside, but they could use the killing array, but they forcibly killed more than 10,000 of them, and outside the killing array, the enemy army had nearly 20,000 people to guard, firmly blocking the Nanzhou reinforcements.
"What about the Xuanjing Cannon?"
"Still Outside"
"Pull it over, the monks above Daogang gather"
When Lin Xiao saw it, he immediately became angry in his heart, and hundreds of monks above Dao Gang stood behind Lin Xiao.
"Kill with me"
Lin Xiao shouted loudly, rushed forward with a big knife, and the enemy's battle formation immediately began to conjure weapons to fight against Lin Xiao.
"Five Elements of Divine Light"
Lin Xiao used the Five Elements Divine Light, and suddenly broke the opponent's weapon, and then the sword gushed out, directly slashing on the battle array, and dozens of people in the battle array vomited blood and died, but the battle array did not collapse.
Lin Xiao exhausted his means, and the battle formation of more than 10,000 people couldn't stop Lin Xiao, the eighth realm monk, just when the battle array was about to collapse, Lin Xiao felt a chill in his heart, and without thinking about it, he directly used his body to move away.
"Boom"
A sword light swept by, dozens of monks died together, and a figure appeared in front of Lin Xiao, it was the enemy's Eighth Realm monk.
"Lin Xiao"
"It's Lin, who is coming, Lin doesn't kill the nameless"
"Kill you, you can ask Hades to know"
"Hmph"
Lin Xiao sneered, the Eighth Realm cultivator is just a monk, although he hasn't killed it yet, it's not that he hasn't fought it.
Lin Xiao was wearing a seventh-order high-grade battle armor, and the magic weapon in his hand was also a seventh-order high-grade, although it was worse than some monks with deep backgrounds, but not every monk had the equipment in Lin Xiao's hand, Lin Xiao was not afraid at all, at least the equipment on the other side was not as good as him.
"Blue Lotus Earth Heart Fire"
"Five Elements of Divine Light"
"The combination of man and knife, splitting the sky"
Lin Xiao used all his means to cut the opponent to the ground, and in the battle with Lin Xiao, he had completely entered the disadvantage, and Lin Xiao's combat power has always been strong.
"I'm fighting with you, all laws are back to the source"
The ancestor of the Shenmu Sect was ashamed and angry in his heart, it had been three thousand years since he broke through the eighth realm, Lin Xiao, it was only more than a hundred years, and he was beaten like this by his juniors, which made him very faceless and decided to fight hard.
"The combination of man and knife, splitting the sky"
Lin Xiao once again used the new supernatural powers, this move is extremely powerful, and it is a bit similar to swordsmanship, one move is eaten all over the world, the emphasis is on killing the enemy with one move, and if one move doesn't work, another move will come again, just like a rolling river, one wave is stronger than the other.
The black sword slashed through the void, directly shattering the opponent's supernatural power, and by the way, shattering his already badly damaged magic robe, and the man flew out directly.
"Haha, Master Lin Meng, I'll pick up a bargain"
Very unfortunately, Ma Langfei happened to come to the rescue, it was the direction in which the man flew upside down, Ma Langfei slashed with a sword light, and the monk of the Shenmu Sect threw out a jade card, forming a defensive shield, blocking Ma Langfei's attack, and then he tore the void and prepared to escape.
"Bang"
But in the next second, his whole body flew out upside down like a cannonball, smashing down a row of shops, and two figures appeared again, and it was the two Eighth Realm monks who came to Kunlun's aid appeared.
"The three of you kill him, I'll break the formation"
If the three can't win one, the Kunlun monks can die, Lin Xiao directly abandoned the opponent, and reflexively went out to break through the killing array of the City Lord's Mansion, and the more than 10,000 monks in it have basically been slaughtered.
"Withdraw"
The monk inside saw that Lin Xiao was coming, the killing array was internal, and the defense was not strong, so he immediately activated the teleportation array and ran away, and when Lin Xiao broke the killing array, the people had already fled.
This part of the centaurs was urgently supported by the Immortal Alliance, and they saw that Shenmu City was no longer saved, and they didn't want to die here, so they ran away.
Lin Xiao looked at more than a dozen teleportation arrays, his heart was ruthless, he slashed down, all of them were destroyed, Lin Xiao didn't dare to follow the past, as soon as they teleported in place, they would definitely destroy the teleportation array, and Lin Xiao might be lost in the void at that time, which was very dangerous.
"Boom"
On the other side, the Eighth Realm monk of the Shenmu Sect was killed by Ma Langfei, and the other party blew himself up before he died, blowing up half of the Shenmu City into ruins, and the monks were killed and injured countless times, at least more than 100,000 people.
As soon as the ancestor of the eighth realm of the Shenmu Sect died, the other party was leaderless, and the high-level monks also felt that they could not do anything, so they rose to the sky one after another, and scattered towards the four continents, and most of the low-level monks lost their will to fight and began to flee.
"Stop them, kill"
Lin Xiao was furious, as far as Lin Xiao saw, the Nanzhou monks had killed at least 200,000 people in battle, there were corpses everywhere, and blood flowed like a river, even Lin Xiao couldn't help the monstrous killing intent in his heart.
Lin Xiao arranged people at the surrounding city gates, except for the high-ranking monks above Dao Gang who could fly into the sky and escape, the rest of the monks could not escape.
The Nanzhou army once again controlled the situation, Lin Xiao dispatched troops, continuously divided the enemy, and then concentrated superior forces to continuously encircle and suppress them.
Three days later, the battle in Shenmu City gradually subsided, and the street fighting in Shenmu City lasted for three days, and those monks who couldn't rush out fought with the trapped beasts, and fought with the Nanzhou monks, until most of the brave monks were killed, and the rest of the monks began to surrender one after another.
Lin Xiao carried a big knife and walked in the city, Shenmu City was beaten into ruins, and everywhere he went, there were either fires or corpses, and the blood flowing from the corpses was about to flood the monk's ankles.
Groups of Nanzhou monks began to clean up the battlefield in groups, for their own wounded, immediately called someone to take them away, stuffed a healing elixir to continue their lives, and the corpses of their own monks were also carefully carried away, as for the enemy's wounded, regardless of the severity, they were directly slaughtered with knives, and the monks who surrendered often had to be beaten violently before they could be taken away.
This battle was so tragic that it was initially estimated that at least 300,000 Nanzhou monks had fallen here, and countless people were wounded.
Outside the city, dozens of mass graves have been buried, and carts of corpses have been stripped away and thrown in, and the Nanzhou army has not even bothered to cremate it, because it can't be burned at all, and their own monks can still give a decent cremation, and the monks of the Shenmu Sect forget it, and when the pit is filled, they will cover it with soil, and then leave it alone.
In the vicinity of the mass grave, piles of storage bags and magic weapons and robes were piled up like a small mountain, and no one went to count them, and in the camp outside the city, tens of thousands of lightly and seriously injured people cried all night because of pain, like hell on earth.
"Master"
"Yunshuang, what's the matter?"
"Ma Laozu, they invite you over"
"Where"
"At the South Gate"
"I know, I'll go now"
Lin Xiao nodded, and then came to the camp at the south gate, where Ma Langfei and other high-level officials were there.
"What are you looking for me?"
"Lord Lin Meng, we want to know the next strategy of the Nanzhou army"
"Not yet, what's wrong"
"Lord Lin League, there are already monks from many countries who want to go home, it's too miserable, and many people are already scared."
Ma Langfei replied, because Lin Xiao's decision was correct before, the casualties of the Nanzhou monks were very low, so it was naturally no problem for everyone to fight with the wind.
But gnawing the hard bones of Shenmu City really lost too many people, and this battle consumed one-tenth of all the armies in Nanzhou, and there were so many dead that these monks who had been fighting for a long time were also frightened.
There are dozens of mass graves outside the city gates on each side, which are almost half filled, and most of the places in the city have not been cleaned up, and it is conservatively estimated that no less than one million monks have died in the city.
Therefore, the monks of Nanzhou no longer have the intention of fighting, and many people only think about taking the rewards of war and then going home to retreat, and never come out again, which is terrible.
"The Heavenly Moon Sect thinks so too?"
"Lord Lin Meng, it is naturally impossible for us and other high-level leaders to think like this, but I don't want to deceive you, most of the low-level disciples have this mind, and the Nanzhou army has no fighting spirit."
"Are you worried that the next big war will be more brutal?"
"That's right, most of our monks in Nanzhou have no life-and-death enmity with the Immortal Alliance, they came out to make a fortune, but no one wants to make money, the people are gone, Lord Lin League, you need to make a decision"
"Stupid"
Lin Xiao scolded angrily, there was a little bit of indisputable anger in his heart, it had reached this point, can you retreat if you want to?
