187: Confrontation

Darkness, the bottomless darkness that precedes dawn, envelops the whole world.

Zhou Xueyu was alone, standing at the head of Wuyang City, with his hands behind his back, looking south. As far as the eye can see, it is still darkness. But Zhou Xueyu's gaze seems to have traveled through time and space, and he has seen everything that is about to happen in a more distant place.

There was a sound of light footsteps, and Huer sounded behind him. Then the fire burned above the city. Bailu Timu'er held a torch in his hand and walked up in a hurry. smiled: "City Lord Zhou." ”

Zhou Xueyu didn't look back, and said lightly: "After today, there will be no more Wuyang City in the world." That's why I'm no longer the lord of the city. ”

Timur smiled: "But today is not over yet. No, it should be said that it has just begun, isn't it? So now, let's call the City Lord of Zhou as usual. ”

Zhou Xueyu snorted softly, and no longer corrected. "What's the matter?"

Timur restrained her smile and said, "It's nothing. It's just that all the soldiers are ready to go to war at any time. ”

Zhou Xueyu said coldly: "The prince commanded, this battle is commanded by you, and everything is dominated by you." So whether you're ready or not, you don't have to tell me. ”

Timur shrugged: "Having said that, after all, it is a cooperation between the two families. The enemy is strong and I am weak, so we have to cooperate with each other to have a chance of winning. ”

Zhou Xueyu never turned around, but said coldly: "For the great cause of the prince, of course I will go all out." However, in addition to guarding against enemies outside the city, I will also guard against enemies inside the city. ”

Timur smiled and said, "City Lord Zhou is mistaken, right? Where are the enemies in this city? ”

Zhou Xueyu said coldly: "I am from the Central Plains, and you are from the Desert World." If you are not of my race, their hearts will be different!Timule, you had better be honest and don't play any tricks. Otherwise, my Ice Blade Sword will never mind tasting what deer blood is like. ”

Timu'er said with a smile: "City Lord Zhou, don't worry. You won't have this chance. ”

Zhou Xueyu hadn't answered yet, and suddenly, in the depths of the darkness in the distance, there was a sudden scream of "snort~". Immediately afterward, a bright red fire meteor soared into the sky and exploded in mid-air, forming brilliant fireworks. In the dark night, even if you are ten miles away, or even dozens of miles away, you can still see this firework clearly.

Before the fireworks dispersed, the sound of "Woo Du Du~" desolate horns sounded one after another. As the sound of the horn sounded, the birds in the surrounding mountains and wilderness flew up in fright. The darkness that enveloped the heavens and the earth quickly disappeared. The eastern sky was white, but it was quickly replaced by the dawn.

When the golden dawn fell on the earth, Zhou Xueyu and Timu'er at the head of Wuyang City immediately saw an arrow! A huge arrow lying on the ground, stretching for miles, composed of thousands of soldiers!

It was the Great Wei army! The neatly organized brigade of soldiers and horses formed a "sharp arrow array." As far as the eye can see, there is almost no end in sight. cavalry, infantry, spearmen, sword and shield men, archers, baggagemen...... All of them are brightly dressed and armored, plus siege equipment such as wells, chariots, trebuchets, bed crossbows, etc., all of which are available.

But the march of these thousands of troops was not only orderly, but also almost silent. It's as quiet as a giant beast lurking in the night, and if it doesn't move, it kills you!

The army is actually still some distance away from Wuyang City. However, the huge pressure that was invisible and silent had already hit his face, and even Zhou Xueyu, who had cultivated to the top, felt suffocated.

Manpower is sometimes poor. Even if you have cultivated the frost-free technique to the peak, you can create an ice river and freeze everything in a moment. But Zhou Xueyu secretly estimated that if he fought against this army alone, he would only be able to kill about a thousand people at most, and then he would be exhausted, and he could only be besieged by the large army, and then he would cut himself into meat sauce with a random knife.

If it's a gang, then it's relatively easy to deal with. At most, dozens or hundreds of people were killed, and the guarantee collapsed, and the crying father turned around and fled. However, against the elite army of the upper court, this situation will not occur at all.

This is because the fundamental requirement of military law training lies in the fact that "the brave cannot advance alone, and the cowardly cannot retreat alone." Once the real elite army is on the battlefield, unless it has suffered so many casualties that even the most basic organizational structure does not exist, otherwise, no matter how many comrades have died in the battle, the soldiers will only continue to hold on to their swords and guns and fight desperately until the last moment.

Of course, such an elite army can never be everywhere. However, it is very unfortunate that the army in front of him that is silently approaching Wuyang City is definitely the elite of the elite.

The march of the army seemed unpleasant, but after only half an hour, it was already approaching only a few miles or so from Wuyang City. Zhou Xueyu and Timuer, who were standing on top of the city, could clearly see the appearance of those soldiers at the forefront of the army.

"Wow~"

The sound of the earthquake exploded, and the army stopped as soon as it said, and never advanced half a foot further. Between heaven and earth, it suddenly became silent, leaving only a piece of slaughter.

Timur, who was above the city, suddenly snorted coldly, then raised his right hand and waved it down suddenly.

"Knock~Knock~Knock~"

The heavy drum beats, one at a time, not slowly, but it seems to hit people's hearts every time. In the midst of the drums, Wuyang City, which seemed to be empty, suddenly woke up like a dormant beast, showing its fangs and claws, and dense figures appeared everywhere above and below the city. Speaking of military appearance alone, it is not under the regular army of the Great Wei at all.

At the head of the city, on the left side of Zhou Xueyu and on the right side of Timule, a total of sixteen soldiers joined forces at the same time and erected two large flags. The wind blows, the flag is waving in the wind, and the hunt is sounding. But I saw that the flag on the left was a word "extinguish", and the flag on the right was a green and lush wolf head, which happened to represent the king of extinction and the blue wolf respectively.

In the military formation opposite, it was obvious that he was not to be outdone, and also erected a big banner. From a distance, it was the word "Zhuge ".

Zhou Xueyu's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhuge ? Could it be Zhuge Taifu? How could it be? With his identity, he actually led the troops here in person?"

The corners of Timul'er's mouth pulled up slightly, and said: "Is that the Zhuge Taifu who has the strongest martial arts, the highest wisdom, and the most loyal to the Great Wei among the so-called 'Twelve Dry Cities' of Great Wei? Just right, let me Bailu Timu'er take a good look at how many catties this so-called wise man of the Central Plains has. ”

"Woo Woo Toot ~ Woo Woo Toot ~~"

The drums stopped, and the trumpets sounded again. The Great Wei army suddenly dispersed and turned into a "fish scale array". Amid the sound of wheels rolling on the ground, more than a dozen catapults were pushed out, and at the same time lined up in front of the formation. Aimed at the head of Wuyang City.

Stones the size of millstones were mounted in bomb pockets, and the belt rope was then tightly tightened to keep the trebuchet ready to fire. It is conceivable that once these stones are thrown, they are so powerful that they are even more powerful than the thunder bombardment of the sky, and they are definitely not able to withstand the flesh and blood.

If the trebuchet has already started firing, then that's fine. But just when this is about to happen, it feels even more like a dark cloud, and the heart is heavy, almost breathless.

The horse's hooves rattled, and a slender young man with a wolf's waist rode forward. He wore no armor, only a set of light clothes. There was a very long and narrow slash stuck diagonally into his waist, and even if two pieces of cork were nailed together, even if it was the hilt of the sword, there was no simple strange sword with a sword at all.

At first sight of this person, Zhou Xueyu's face above the city changed suddenly, and a palpitating light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Is it him?"

Although Timur has never set foot in the Central Plains in his life, he seems to know everything about the martial arts characters in the Central Plains. She stared at the young man in front of the formation and chuckled, "Such a look, such a strange sword...... Ah, could it be that he is the apprentice of Zhuge Taifu, one of the four major stalls of Xiuchun Tower, the 'ecstasy' autumn night rain? By the way, Zhou City Lord, I heard that a few years ago, you had a competition with him, right? But I don't know who wins and who loses?"

From the hint of banter on the corner of her mouth, it can be known that Timur asked knowingly, but she just took the opportunity to sarcastically mock Zhou Xueyu. But this insignificant little trick naturally can't shake Zhou Xueyu. He said coldly: "The victory and defeat of that time. Today, it doesn't matter. What really matters is the great cause of the prince. Whoever dares to hinder the great cause of the prince, whether it is a man or a woman, what awaits him will only be the Ice Blade Sword!"

I didn't look back, I didn't look back. But suddenly, Bailu felt a tingling pain in the center of his eyebrows. Immediately, a cold air invaded his body, and he circled around his body, and even his bone marrow seemed to be frozen.

The smile between Bai Lu's eyebrows was also unspared, and he became as if he had put a mask on his face on the spot, stiff, stupid, and embarrassed...... Pretty much any of these adjectives can be added. Compared with the thirteen-winged female military division who is always calm and confident on weekdays, it is like two people.

Zhou Xueyu, who has cultivated the "Ice River Extreme Realm", has already reached the point of doing whatever he wants with his control of the cold air. In a flash, the cold air had already reversed, and disappeared without a trace in an instant. Zhou Xueyu took half a step forward and raised his voice: "Fourth gear, long time no see!"

The autumn night rain was about half a mile away from the city, and Lerma stopped. He pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, looked up at the city, and raised his voice: "City Lord Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time." It's just that I never expected that we would meet again in this situation, which is really regrettable. ”

Zhou Xueyu said lightly: "Life is inherently fickle, and nothing is certain and inevitable. But the fourth gear head, when you came here today, you shouldn't be catching up with someone Zhou, right?"

Qiu Yeyu took a deep breath and said in a condensed voice: "City Lord Zhou, for the sake of the old friendship, I advise you: the bitter sea is endless, and turning back is the shore." ”

Zhou Xueyu said coldly: "It's a pity, I never thought I was in the sea of suffering. So there's no need to look back. Fourth-gear head, no more wasting lips and tongues. If you want to fight, then come and fight. The promise of the sword trick back then is just fulfilled today. ”

Qiu Yeyu sighed and said, "Since this is the case, then we have to see the true chapter on the sword." City Lord Zhou, please. ”

In a word, the autumn night rain didn't say much, just raised his right hand and waved it down suddenly.

"Bang Bang~~"

It was too late, and all the belt cables on the catapults were suddenly released. The power accumulated to the extreme, then completely released, driving the dozen or so stone bullets as big as a millstone to fly into the air, and then at the same time drew more than ten perfect arcs in mid-air, roaring towards Wuyang City.

If the killing machine is overwhelmed, it will be smashed on the head. Zhou Xueyu was unmoved. He snorted softly, suddenly urging his true qi, his arms twitched from the bottom up, and he shouted: "Get up!"

"Wow~"

More than a dozen thick water columns rose into the air at the same time. But it came from a dozen huge water tanks that were originally used to fight fires at the head of the city. Immediately afterwards, the cold qi of the glacier exploded, and the water column condensed into huge ice cubes, and flew out of the wind under the control of Zhou Xueyu's true qi.

"呯呯呯呯呯~~"

The deafening sound of huge crashes came one after another. Stone bullets and ice cubes collided one-on-one, but there was no half of the fish that slipped through the net. In an instant, the entire space also trembled, and countless ice slags and stones were shattered, flying up and down, left and right, and the momentum was unmatched.

Zhou Xueyu alone completely abolished the trebuchet offensive of the Great Wei army. Suddenly, the whole city of Wuyang thundered with joy, and the shouts of "City Lord Zhou, Baisheng!Zhou City Lord, Baisheng!" went straight into the sky, and everyone could hear it clearly within a radius of more than ten miles.

Strictly speaking, Zhou Xueyu's move only guarantees the computing power. There was no damage at all on the side of the Great Wei army. However, the city lord of Wuyang City showed immortal cultivation, but it invisibly caused the morale of Wuyang City to skyrocket. On the contrary, Da Wei's side suffered a slight setback. Although the Great Wei army will not be discouraged because of this, the consequences will still be unfavorable to the Great Wei.

"锵~锵~锵~"

Heavy footsteps sounded sonorously, and in the formation of the Great Wei army, a tall figure walked out. The whole body of the visitor was dressed in a pair of golden armor. Cover every inch of your skin tightly. According to the body arc of the armor, it can be clearly distinguished, this is actually a woman?

In the world's martial arts, there are many female masters. But she likes to wear armor, and this armor is so heavy, but after she puts this heavy armor on, she can still move freely, no matter how she thinks about it, it can only be one person: one of the four major stalls of Xiuchun Building: "Rouyi" Bodhisattva.

Although she is a woman, she is a bodhisattva with a lot of ability, but she is known for her fierceness and domineering. In particular, the internal strength is profound, and it can be called the first among the four major stalls. It is said that he has chased after Zhuge Taifu.

At this moment, I saw the Bodhisattva in his hand, dragging a spear. The whole body of this spear is crystal clear, and it seems to be cast in pure steel. From the tip of the spear to the end of the hilt, it is two zhang long, as thick as a goose egg. Roughly calculated, it weighs at least a few hundred pounds.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Bodhisattva was even more silent, and directly lifted the spear with one hand, aiming at the head of Wuyang City. In the next moment, she suddenly broke off and shouted, with her strength in her arms, and suddenly threw with all her might!

"Huh~" The sharp whistling sound was like a ghost crying and howling, and the pure steel spear was as fast as lightning, and it shot through the air in response. A fierce and tragic momentum, followed by a crazy outbreak, it is the god who kills the god, the Buddha blocks the **, and the domineering is simply miserable!
