164 Fencing Formation
Hearing the word 'evil worm', Xu Heihu's face suddenly turned pale, he had heard of this kind of demon creature for a long time but it was the first time he saw it, they had the running speed of a wild wolf, the palms and soles of their hands and feet had suckers, they were the best at climbing, the big mouth under the meat whiskers on the top of the head could swallow a human head after opening up, and the sharp teeth could easily bite off a person's neck, I didn't expect that in order to capture the quicksand city, the demon army actually brought them too.
"What should I do?"
Xu Heihu Khan has come down, according to the current battle situation, if the evil worm really rushes over, it will definitely affect the suppression of the defenders of the blood skeleton warriors under the city, and it is almost impossible to prevent the demon army from going to the city.
Ye Haotian said with a gloomy face: "The biggest advantage of the evil worms is speed, but their defense is weak, and ordinary bows and crossbows can deal with it, so the demon army put them behind the siege soldiers to attack, it seems that they can only use the seven killing crossbows, what I am worried about is that they will be scattered to the city, so that the people of the five major families will no longer save their strength, and the three thousand demon troops behind will not care about it first, release the spiritual energy, and destroy the cloud ladder with all their might!"
"Good!"
With Xu Heihu's order, the cultivators of the five major families on the city wall raised their aura one after another, and the weapons in their hands suddenly emitted colorful light, and with the wave of their arms, they slashed heavily on the cloud ladder.
......
......
"How can there be so many cultivators!"
After the demon army camped, Zichuan Hong and the three demon generals saw the scene on the city wall, and their faces suddenly became ugly.
Ying Jiu's face also changed, and in his line of sight, he saw several blue-clothed cultivators raising the long swords in their hands at the same time above a cloud ladder, and with the swing of his arm, the flowing aura on the long sword shot out, not only cutting the body of a blood skeleton warrior in two, but even the horizontal brace of the cloud ladder was also split into four, and the blood skeleton warrior below lost the support of his feet, and immediately hung on the ladder pole.
Judging from the signs of the surging spiritual energy, the cultivation of these cultivators is not high, they are all up and down in the early stage of the second realm, and the highest is only in the middle of the second realm, which is still far from the third realm where the spiritual energy is released, but the lethality of their combined blows can actually form a two-meter-long sword qi, which is not much weaker than the full force of the peak powerhouse of the Xuan Realm.
"Fencing Formation!"
Ying Jiu squeezed a few words out of his teeth, and at this moment he finally understood the reason why no one had destroyed the cloud ladder since the beginning of the war. They want to kill, they want to reduce the number of blood skeleton warriors to the greatest extent, as long as the ladder is not destroyed, the attacking warriors will scatter and climb up, and the defenders will be able to kill and injure the enemy in a larger area, the mortality rate caused by rolling wood and stones is much higher than that of bows and crossbows, which just makes up for the weakness of this temporary defender cobbled together by ordinary people, damn, how can there be so many stones on the city wall, and it has not been thrown for so long!
At a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, the vicious gaze of the infant nine poisonous snake fell on the city tower, he saw Ye Haotian, and saw the indifference and calmness on his face.
As if sensing that someone was staring at him, Ye Haotian's gaze also turned over, the eyes of the two collided in the void, and a cold wind seemed to suddenly blow on the battlefield, and a chill inexplicably rose in the souls of cultivators and blood skeleton warriors with slightly stronger perception.
A thousand Evil Worm warriors quickly charged, they landed on all fours, they were as fast as wolves, and the flesh on their necks was blown by the wind behind them, revealing a large black hole in the middle, and several rows of razor-like fangs kept biting together, making gurgling sounds, and in just a few breaths they passed through the sea of fire in front of them, and came to the bottom of the city, some of them went straight up the wall, and the other went around the sides.
"Can't wait any longer, all attack!"
Zichuan Hiroshi saw that the ladders under the city wall were destroyed by the cultivators guarding the city, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
After yesterday's battle, thinking of the scene of the defenders using spears to pry the ladder to destroy the siege, he deliberately changed the three ladders into two, and increased the slope with a lengthened method to prevent the defenders from prying, and wrapped iron sheets at both ends of the ladder, so that even a heavy axe is difficult to cut it in a short time, but he didn't expect that the sword qi released by the cultivators in the city could easily cut off his plan in two, if the ladders were all destroyed, the only entrance to the siege would be the city gate...... As soon as he thought of the city gate, a touch of ruthlessness welled up in Zichuan Hong's eyes, and he turned his head to the beast tamer not far away and ordered: "Let the siege beast attack!"
The beast tamer held the bone flute in his hand, and he kept blowing, trying to contact the siege beast that had not heard from him since he entered the city, because he had blown too long and too hard, his face was red, and his two eyes were also full of bloodshots, after hearing Zichuan Hong's voice, he hurriedly took two steps forward, licked his dry lips, and said: "General, Godzilla has not reacted so far, the situation in the city is unknown, and now let Austria attack, I am afraid that there will be danger." ”
"Dangerous?" Zichuan Hong scolded: "Our clan is at war with humans, there is no danger one day, don't you see how many heroic blood skeleton warriors have fallen under the city in front!
"No!"
The beast tamer stubbornly raised his head and said: "The duty of the siege beast is to attack the city, not to send it to death! Godzilla disappeared suddenly, things are too weird, before I understand the reason, I, as an animal trainer, must be responsible for the life of Austria! Even in front of Marshal Zichuan Fengyun, I will say the same thing." Without waiting for Zichuan Hong to get angry, the beast tamer said: "These giant beasts come from the distant Demon Domain Forest, they are scarce in number, extremely precious, and the value of one is enough to withstand a two-thousand-person army, I can't watch the army of two thousand people go to death in such an unknown way, General, please understand." ”
"If you want to go, you'll go, so much nonsense. ”
Ying Jiu jumped out of the chariot and came to the side of the beast trainer, he held a blood-red serpentine sword in his hand, and said: "This time, this army division will be protected by the four generals in Austria, as long as the defenders dare to open the city gate, we will rush in together to see what accident Godzilla has encountered, so you should rest assured." ”
......
......
As the cultivators on the city wall no longer hid their strength, the overall combat effectiveness of the defenders of Quicksand City soared instantly, and those ladders that ordinary soldiers could not break at all, under the joint efforts of several cultivators, were easily split into pieces like a thousand-year-old rotten wood, and when the evil worm soldiers rushed to the city, fifteen of the forty-seven ladders had been destroyed.
Looking at the aura light that was constantly lighting up all around, Ye Haotian's tightened heart relaxed slightly, Ying Jiu guessed correctly, the reason why he didn't let people destroy the cloud ladder in the first place was because he wanted to kill the enemy to the greatest extent.
These improvised defenders can't withstand the rush of the demon army at all, they are not good at bows and crossbows, they don't know how to use swords and shields, they have never experienced a real big war, if they confront the blood skeleton warriors head-on, the war will become a one-sided slaughter.
