Chapter 406: Defensive Array!
"Ximen breaks the sky! I owe you a generation of emperors! I actually use women to blackmail!"
Cheng Gong wanted to save his daughter, or let his daughter end up with a good death, so he had to provoke the other party.
"Cheng Gong, you don't have to provoke me, if I threaten you with a woman, then I won't be waiting for Da Lang to come back, I, a soldier all over the city, will probably like such a stunning beauty very much. ”
Ximen Potian's tone was very flat, how could a generation of emperors be affected by such a vulgar radical method.
"Okay, military advisor, when this king breaks through the city, he will save his niece out!"
Ximen Wentian was afraid that his military advisor would be in a mess, so he pulled out the saber at his waist and ordered:
"Siege Engines Ready! Siege Cities!"
"Knock! knock......"
With the sound of drums, large siege equipment was pushed up.
Some have boulders on them, while others have fire pots on them.
Simon Potian also drew his sword, got up from his chair with difficulty, and ordered:
"Open the capital defense array!"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
A rapid drum sounded, and suddenly a strong light shot out from the palace, covering it like a flower, and a translucent light shrouded the entire Tianqing City.
When the magic circle was placed, the whole city was in an uproar! This kind of vision has never been encountered by ordinary people in their lives.
However, for some cultivators who had lived for a long time, the last time they saw it seemed to be a hundred years ago!
"Big brother! Don't bother with it! This big array won't drag on for long! Attack!"
Simon gave the order to attack.
"Whoosh ......"
A large number of boulders and fire pots streaked through the sky and landed accurately on the circle, causing the huge circle to shake.
The people and soldiers of the whole city looked at the sky at the same time, and they were so frightened that they hid in the house.
Although the stones were shattered by the circle, they were still terrifying.
"Defend the city! Attack!"
Simon Potian gave the order again.
"Whoosh ......"
Huge arrows shot out from the holes in the walls that were not protected by the magic circle, like rain.
"Defense!"
Ximen Wentian waved his sword, and suddenly the shield soldiers in front raised their shields, forming a shield wall above the heads of the vanguard soldiers.
"Oooooo......oo
Thick arrows smashed into the iron shield, some were bounced away, others pierced, killing the soldiers below.
As soon as a soldier falls, someone will be unlucky, but then someone will be replenished.
For a while, you came and went, consuming the energy of the magic circle on the one hand, and consuming the opponent's troops on the other, so it was not lively.
"Your Majesty, if this big array continues to be consumed like this, I'm afraid it won't last long!"
Zhang He stood beside Ximen Potian, looking up at the magic circle whose light was getting fading and fading, and his expression was a little worried.
Ximen Potian looked at the city and said expressionlessly:
"I know that once the magic circle is broken, Tianqing City will not be able to resist for long. Now, I can only pin my hopes on the crown prince. ”
"Prince?"
Zhang He looked into the distance, but in addition to the dense rebels, there was no trace of any other army.
Time passed, and the two sides attacked each other like this.
There are more and more corpses below, but the large array of Tianqing City is also getting weaker and weaker, and it is estimated that it will not last long, and it will meet the enemy's sword soldiers.
However, the defenders of Tiandu City added up to no more than 50,000 people, plus most of them were soldiers who had not fought for many years, and their combat effectiveness could be imagined.
The battle gradually moved from noon to evening, and the large array at night was more dazzling, but it was also more clear that the magic circle was weakening little by little.
Simon Potian turned his head to look at the palace, there was obviously someone in there who could stop this, but they were unmoved.
Even, some people don't know which deep mountains and old forests they nest in, or they have traveled in the world.
Suddenly, Zhang He, who was looking into the distance, had been behind the rebels and exclaimed:
"Your Majesty, look! It's on fire!"
Ximen Potian looked up, and sure enough, he saw the fire in the rear of the rebels, and there were even bursts of shouts of killing.
"Is it Da Lang?"
He abruptly got up, but quickly reacted and sat back, coughing violently.
And at this moment, Fox Panruo hurriedly went to the top of the tower with a shadow and more than a dozen brocade guards.
"Fox Army, is that the prince's army here?"
Simon Potian hurriedly turned his head and asked.
Fox Panruo glanced at the back of the flames and shook his head:
"According to the speed of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it will not arrive until noon tomorrow at the earliest, and it should be another army. Your Majesty doesn't know that His Highness has divided the reinforcements into three routes. ”
"Three-way?"
Ximen Potian frowned, Ximen Hao's plan to send troops, he didn't know anything about it.
Suddenly, Zhang He exclaimed again:
"Your Majesty, look! Over there! Tiger Banner! It's Generalissimo Di!"
Ximen turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw a large army inserting from the flank of the rebels, and the banner in the army was Di Hu's tiger banner.
"Hahaha! Great! My tiger is coming!"
"Alas, alas, it is too few, according to the current strength, the maximum number of reinforcements is not more than 100,000. And in a hurry, it must be exhausting. ”
Fox Panruo shook his head, these forces can't win, because King Huainan and King Hongxi are both experts in leading troops to fight!
Sure enough, as his words fell, King Hongxi's 100,000 army instantly attacked Di Hu's army in an encirclement.
And the king of Huainan also gave orders again and again, and at least 80,000 troops were transferred to fight with Han Yan's arsonous army.
The rest of the people continued to attack the circle and consume the energy of the circle.
"Father, the emperor, the son is willing to lead the troops out of the city to meet the battle!"
Ximen Wu stepped forward and looked at the battle below, his hands itching.
"Your Highness, you can't!
The fox hurriedly stopped.
If the gates are opened at this time, in case the enemy takes the opportunity to enter.
If this allowed Simon Wentian's army to enter the city, then this battle would be really difficult to fight.
"San Lang, don't be impatient, this big array can still resist for a while. ”
Ximen Potian also felt that it was inappropriate and waved his hand.
Ximen Wu had no choice but to retreat.
"Hu Aiqing, do you think there is any way to destroy those siege machines?"
Simon Potian looked at the large trebuchets below, each of which was protected by a large number of military masters.
"This ...... Your Majesty, I can't hide it, and there is no way for the minister to do it for the time being. These instruments are firmly workmanlike and cannot be broken in a short period of time. Perhaps, His Highness has a way. ”
Fox Praruo saluted.
"What the hell can I do!"
Ximen Wu said with a glare.
The corners of the fox furrowed and did not speak.
"Hahaha! San Lang, you are self-inflicted, Hu Aiqing is talking about your eldest brother. ”
Ximen Potian saw the reinforcements and was in a much better mood.
Ximen Wu's face flashed with a hint of embarrassment, and he retreated stupidly.
And just when the people on the city tower were at a loss for those siege equipment, suddenly a horn sounded from the other side.
And as soon as the horn sounded, the two battlefields suddenly remembered a burst of excited shouts, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood!
