Chapter Seventy-Three: Breaking the Siege
Seeing that his companions were killed by the enemy's men, the remaining two warriors immediately had red eyes, shouting and rushing towards Lu Bu, Lu Bu snorted coldly, and in the air, two sharp orange lights flashed, and these two Qiang warriors, with their men and horses, all soared up, and then fell heavily to the ground and died.
In an instant, three generals were killed in a row, and the Qiang side was suddenly shocked.
"Quick, set up a formation to meet the attack!" Seeing that Lu Bu rushed straight without the slightest pause, the Qiang general hurriedly gave an order, however, for Lu Bu, it made no difference to him whether he set up a formation or not.
The next moment, under the shocked gaze of this Qiang general, an orange aura burst out, and then a piece of Qiang soldiers was swept out by a terrifying force, and the tight formation, with only one face, was broken through a big hole.
One man and one horse, at this moment like a tiger entering the flock, Lu Bu rode the red shadow, slammed left and right in the Qiang army, and the enemy, under his Fang Tian painting halberd, directly rose into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Steady, steady!" the general shouted desperately, who would have thought that this man and a horse would actually cut through his troops directly from the side, and pieces of soldiers were all under his Fang Tian painting halberd, becoming the soul of the halberd.
At this time, the three wizards hurriedly cast bloodthirsty spells, and suddenly, the soldiers in the front row were red and headed towards Lu Bu.
"Wizards!" Lu Bu sneered, turned his horse, and entered the troops again. In an instant, this Qiang army once again temporarily released the baptism of blood flowers, and pieces of soldiers were all swept out by the domineering energy that burst out of this Fang Tian painting halberd.
"Quick, stop him!" the general shouted eagerly, but, who else can stop it? In the blink of an eye, Lu Bu had already rushed to kill, and the heads of the three wizards were also harvested by him mercilessly, and then, it was the general's head, which flew up.
At the last moment, he saw a cavalry of 5,000 men mercilessly breaking into the already chaotic military formation, killing frantically. And until this moment, he didn't understand why he was in such a situation in the blink of an eye when he was going to swallow this 5,000-strong army.
In the desert, Ling Feng led the large army to move forward slowly, and at this time, a scout galloped over, turned over and dismounted, and saluted on one knee: "Report to the general, Lu Bu's first battle is urgent, the Great Qiang army is 30,000, the enemy is 20,000, and countless horses and equipment are collected." ”
Hearing such good news, the corners of Ling Feng's mouth lifted slightly, and then asked, "What are the casualties of our army?"
"Within 100 wounded, no one was killed. The scout said.
"What, not a single person was killed!" Ling Feng couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, such a large-scale battle, it could still guarantee zero deaths, this was definitely not something that could be done by individual martial arts alone.
"Okay, I got it. Ling Feng nodded, and then beckoned the army to move on.
When he was young, Lu Bu led five thousand cavalry back to resume his life, looking at the soldiers who had experienced a big battle, but were still full of energy and full of fighting spirit, Ling Feng couldn't help but be in awe, with the assistance of such peerless fierce generals, why couldn't the Ling family rise in this era of heroes.
"General Lu has made meritorious contributions to retreating from the enemy, from today onwards, I Ling Feng will officially crown you as General Huwei. Ling Feng said loudly.
"Thank you. Lu Bu clasped his hands into fists and said, "After this battle, the morale of the soldiers is high, I ask to fight again!"
"Okay, since this is the case, then the general will immediately lead the five thousand cavalry to Chicheng to relieve the siege of Chicheng, and the army will arrive later. At the end of Ling Feng, he added: "The general must not be careless, the Qiang army besieging Chicheng this time is full of 50,000 people, including the leaders of the two Qiang tribes, which should not be underestimated. ”
Lu Bu smiled, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "Hmph, it's just a nomad, I'll solve it." With that, he beckoned the five thousand cavalry behind him, and rode away, leaving a trail of dust.
At this moment, on a city backed by a mountain, a general held a big knife and silently looked at the black and large Qiang army outside the city, with a solemn expression.
"Zhang Cheng, you can resist my 50,000 army for a month with only 5,000 soldiers and horses, you do have your ability, I also respect you as a general, as long as you are willing to surrender, we will definitely treat you well. "Below the city, a man dressed in ornate armor and dressed as a leader said so.
If, at this time, Lu Buruo was there, he would definitely recognize this general on the city tower, who was one of the three people who competed on the same stage in the elite selection examination in the past. Now, after so many years, Zhang Cheng also joined the army early and became a defender in his own right. And this Akagi, under his leadership, stubbornly resisted the 50,000 enemy troops who attacked the city in turn for a month.
"Hmph, if you want to fight, it's better to say less nonsense, so as not to callouse my ears when I listen to it. Zhang Cheng said loudly.
"Well, there is a kind, on the day the city is broken, we will definitely wash Akagi in blood, and we will use your blood as our wine. ”
"Then let's try it!" Zhang Cheng said coldly, looking at the enemy army that was swarming and attacking the city again, Zhang Cheng's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of worry, the terrain in the northwest is difficult to walk, if the reinforcements can't arrive in time, I'm afraid that everyone will be slaughtered on the day the city is broken.
The battle started again, the enemy swarmed up, Zhang Cheng continued to command the defenders to resist with all his might, for a while, arrows rained down, falling rocks and rolling wood continued to fall, and finally, the boiling oil was also at the critical moment, splashed down, and then, Zhang Cheng took a torch, coldly looked at the enemy army under the city full of oil, and threw the torch down.
In an instant, the flames erupted, and the city suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
The brutal war continues to be staged in this border city, every day, the enemy army besieging the city has a large number of casualties, and Zhang Cheng mobilizes all the people in the city as much as possible to help carry the rocks and logs, as well as spare enough boiling oil. The soldiers defending the city are divided into three batches, replaced in turn, and the jerky equipped with it is also focused on the rapid recovery of physical strength, with the support of this characteristic jerky, these five thousand soldiers can be stubbornly supported in such a high-intensity battle.
Soon, another half a month passed, and the city defense army had been reduced from the initial 5,000 to 4,000, of which the wounded accounted for the majority. In order to ensure that there are enough people to defend the city, Zhang Cheng also specially recruited some powerful young adults in the city to supplement them and assist in defending the city. In this way, even though these Qiang armies paid a huge price of nearly 20,000 casualties, they still failed to break through this small county seat.
"Zhang Cheng, you wait for me, on the day the city is broken, I will definitely cut you with a thousand knives!" Under the city, the leader who has been unable to break the city for a long time is furious, and his eyes are about to erupt with fire. Zhang Cheng snorted coldly, whatever he called, but when his eyes swept over the city wall, there were not many fallen rocks and rolling logs left, and the exhausted city defenders, he was also worried in his heart.
"The resources are almost exhausted, and there is not much food left, at most, if you support it for half a month, you will have to fight the final battle with them. Zhang Cheng couldn't help but sigh, he had never taken these nomads in the eyes of the Chongxuan Sect before, but now the reality had dealt him a heavy blow, after their wizards blessed them with that kind of bloodthirsty witchcraft, the combat power and madness of these nomadic soldiers had at least doubled.
The fierce battle is still continuing, perhaps it is Zhang Cheng's tenacity, which has completely worn out the patience of these nomads, today, they are attacking the city extremely crazy, even if the falling rocks and rolling trees are smashed, even if the boiling oil is spilled out, these nomads are completely not afraid to swarm up.
Finally, a city wall was broken through by the enemy, Zhang Cheng's brows furrowed slightly, and then he picked up the big knife in his hand and rushed towards that side.
"The city is in the people, the city is destroyed and the people are dying, one day when I Zhang Cheng is there, you don't want to break through the red city!"
On the city wall, Zhang Cheng's whole body erupted with a thick orange aura, and this red gold machete, in an instant, cut down a large area of these nomadic enemy troops who climbed the city wall.
The wind was still howling, the yellow dust was permeating, and when the nomads were still attacking the city with red eyes, they did not realize that behind them, an army hidden in the yellow dust had arrived.
A trumpet of the charge suddenly sounded, and everyone was stunned, and they all looked in the direction of the sound, only to see there, a man and a horse standing on a high place, silently watching everything here.
Wearing a phoenix-winged purple and gold crown, wearing a white tiger swallowing Jin Kai, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, and a red shadow divine horse under his crotch, looking at this familiar figure, Zhang Cheng, who was fighting bravely to kill the enemy, couldn't help but show excitement in his eyes.
"Lu Bu, you're finally here!"
Lu Bu looked coldly at the enemy army, then raised Fang Tian's halberd high, and said loudly, "Are you ready?"
"Ready!" Behind him, five thousand soldiers shouted in unison, resounding through the heavens and the earth.
"Then give me these nomadic children!" Lu Bu said, taking the lead, the red shadow was like a red wind, galloping towards the enemy at high speed, and behind him, five thousand cavalry also roared in unison, and the monstrous battle spirit instantly turned into a flood beast, overwhelmingly charging towards the enemy.
The earth was shaking, the desert was trembling, and the five thousand cavalry, under the leadership of Lu Bu, was so amazing.
"Quick, pikes come forward!"
"Archers ready!"
"The formation is assembled. ”
One after another orders were issued, and the formation of the nomads was changing rapidly, but Lu Bu was still sneering, and the orange aura suddenly burst out, and at this moment, Lu Bu's monstrous battle intent was like turning into a huge tiger, roaring and rushing into the battle array full of spears.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the dense formation suddenly exploded violently, and countless enemy troops were shaken out by this terrifying energy, and a huge gap appeared in the battle formation.
"Impossible!" At this moment, the leader was stunned, he couldn't have imagined that this person who rushed over first broke the gun array of his secret book with just one blow, and with just one blow, all 32 people were thrown away.
The monstrous battle intent seemed to have its own aura of fear, Lu Bu's whole body bloomed with an incomparably domineering orange aura, at this moment, Lu Bu was alone and one horse, as if entering a no-man's land, rushing straight up, one person, directly chiseled through the army of 30,000 people.
In the city, everyone froze, looking at Lu Bu, who was unscrupulously killing the enemy in the nomadic army, and a thought came to their hearts.
This person, not a person.
Behind him, five thousand cavalry charged, like an arrow array, along the gap carved by Lu Bu, in an instant, the enemy was knocked on their backs, and then charged all the way, like a flood, overwhelmingly swept towards the enemy.
Zhang Cheng swallowed his saliva, this is no longer a war, this is a one-sided massacre.
The Fang Tian painting halberd in Lu Bu's hand bloomed with a dazzling orange aura, and every time the halberd went down, the enemy figures in the sky flew around, and one person, after directly cutting through the enemy troops, reflexively killed back again. Under his heavy Fang Tian painting halberd, no weapons and shields could be resisted, life was as fragile as an eggshell, many people didn't understand what was going on, they were hit hard by a powerful force, and then the whole person spurted blood wildly, and flew out upside down like this.
"I am the king of Lou Nu. ”
"I am the King of Aries. ”
At this time, two people suddenly appeared in the nomadic army, decorated with gorgeous armor, tall and powerful, and when they saw Lu Bu, the two of them shouted and asked almost at the same time: "Come and report your name!"
"Ziyun Mountain, Lu Bu!"
A loud shout resounded across the battlefield.
