404. VIP War (1st Watch)
"Well, that's what I said, if the city lord wants to abandon the city and leave, Jing will never stop him." There was no trace of displeasure on Keigo's face.
"Weichen is afraid, His Highness forgives his sins." The city lord hurriedly knelt down.
"What is the crime of the city lord, everyone can see the gap between Wucheng and the Black Lotus Fire." Jing Wu said that his eyes gradually ignited a trace of sharpness: "If Jing Wu's identity was just a poor person, he would definitely abandon the city and flee, but Jing is not, standing in this position, he is destined to fight for the world, even if it is to pay for his life." ”
The city lord paused, thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, yes, as the city lord of a city, if he wants to abandon the city, then who is willing to defend it, if everyone thinks the same as him, Dongchen will not perish.
"There are some things that no one can predict, but going to the battlefield with fear is doomed to failure." If you haven't even struggled, how can you assert victory and defeat?
The city lord was deeply remorseful, but he also deeply understood Jingwu's words.
"The minister will go all out, and he will definitely guard this city for Dongchen." If he is gone, even if he is alive, he will leave an infamy, it is better to fight than this, whether he wins or loses, he always does his best, and he does not waste the trust of Emperor Dongchen in him.
"Jing will thank the city lord for the people of the world." Jingwu said lightly.
"Your Highness, this is the responsibility of Wei Chen." The city lord trembled in his voice and looked a little excited.
"There is a certain advantage standing on the terrain of Wucheng, if you can ambush in advance to have some chance of winning, the city lord, you can come and see." Keigo greeted.
The castle lord stood up and walked to the table to look at the terrain on the map, listening carefully to Keigo's explanation and layout.
It is also said that less than three miles in front of Wucheng is a mountain, and the terrain is narrow, although the Black Lotus Fire 20,000 horses are strong, if they are blocked in the mountains, their attack ability will be greatly weakened.
The cities behind Wucheng are all plains, and now Wucheng is a cut, if Wucheng is lost, the people and soldiers of Dongchen fall into extreme panic, and they are afraid of the biggest psychology of defeat without a fight.
A day passed, in a mountain three miles away from Wucheng, less than a mile around the mountains on both sides of this mountain road, even if it was all arranged, Jingwu looked at the new heart and still did not have the certainty of a comprehensive victory.
After all, the opponent's Black Lotus Fire can hide its voice, and the odds of outwitting the enemy are not even ten percent sure.
"Your Highness is ready." The lord of the city stepped forward to pay his respects.
"The people and horses of the Black Lotus Fire have already moved, so they will definitely be able to rush here in less than half a day, so people will be more vigilant."
"Yes." The lord of the city responded.
The mentality of the thousands of soldiers is completely different from before, and maybe they can really win this battle.
"10,000 horses, only our Hummingbird Pavilion 3,000 people and horses are elites, this Wucheng soldiers look weak one by one, and a thousand people from Black Lotus Fire can solve them all." Dressed in red, she twisted her body and stood beside Keigo.
"No one can predict how much potential people can exert when they reach the extreme, and now these people are at least gaining momentum." Jingwu said lightly.
Huamo's face was as if he had stepped on fly: "Come on, their momentum is not enough for the Black Lotus Fire to collapse, Jingwu, you shouldn't be really stupid enough to clash with Black Lotus so head-on." ”
"The people who have already made trouble in the Black Lotus Fire are panicking, if they don't fight here, waiting for these people to break into the imperial capital will be even more tricky." Now there are already hidden people in the imperial capital, and their whereabouts are uncertain for them to catch.
The people on the periphery and the infiltrators attacked the imperial capital at the same time, so their chances of turning over might be even smaller than now.
"That's a nice thing to say, are you sure you didn't choose to come to Wucheng to avoid Yao Qingqing?" Foam pouted.
Jing Wu swept him coldly, and even his voice became cold: "I can still tell the size of the situation." ”
The painting foam trembled, lowered his head, and grinned on his chin.
Where is there such a coincidence, as soon as he heard that Yao Qingqing had arrived in Dongchen, he immediately came to Wucheng, no matter what he said, half of the reason in his heart must be that he didn't want to see Yao Qingqing.
Towards noon, the sun is faint on the horizon, and even if the sun is in full bloom in winter, it can't drive away the surrounding cold.
The soldiers hidden at the peak all widened their eyes, and a large number of people and horses appeared below, dressed in black and conspicuous, and everyone's fingers were tightly holding bows and arrows, and they were still a little uneasy in their hearts in the face of the black lotus fire.
The men and horses below kept entering the mountains, and the places surrounded by mountains on both sides were very narrow, so less than half of the men and horses of the Black Lotus Fire entered, and the soldiers above raised their bows and arrows and were deliberately ready to attack.
With a wave of Keigo's robe, countless bows and arrows flew downward.
"Bang Bang"
"Boom"
The bow and arrow carried a small flame, and it fell on the ground below, and suddenly exploded like explosives.
The sound of the explosion sounded in his ears, and the men and horses below did not appear too flustered when they encountered the sudden situation, dodging and resisting the overwhelming bow and arrow.
The city lord of Wucheng was very surprised when he saw the bow and arrow blowing down, at first he thought that the bow and arrow were smeared with fire oil, but he didn't want the bow and arrow to fall to the ground and it could explode, and the soldiers were also surprised when they saw this, but when they saw the power of the bow and arrow, their fierce fighting spirit was instantly full.
There was a cloud of smoke below, and the black figure of the Black Lotus continued to dodge in the narrow mountains, and the power of the explosion was so strong that the people and horses below kept retreating.
The 20,000 horses were attacked in front of them, and the people and horses in the rear did not dare to go any further, and the black lotus fire in the lead dodged and looked up.
"Door master, you can't move forward at all."
"Even with this little trick, I dare to stop the Black Lotus Fire, and I can't do anything I can." The leader said, tiptoeing a little, and constantly rising up along the rock, so fast that people couldn't catch the figure.
Keigo's eyes were dark, and with a twist of his wrist, a long sword that shone brightly held in his hand.
"That's a lot of speed." Huamo's gaze could barely keep up: "Such a strong light skill, Jingwu be careful." ”
Jingwu flicked his long sword, and a sword aura flew straight down.
"Bump"
The rocks on the mountainside exploded, and the broken stones kept falling downward.
The leader who dodged the blow, his fingers were stuck on the rocks, and his murderous eyes stared straight at the people above, so strong internal force, I didn't expect that there were such powerful characters in Wucheng.
Jing Wu stood in the wind, his white clothes fluttering, and his eyes seemed to be dyed with black ink, so black that people couldn't see the bottom.
The odd-headed man hanging halfway up the mountain suddenly sank to the dark heart, so depressed his gaze, which was annoying but couldn't be ignored.
"Hidden."
He roared down with internal force, his voice reminiscent of the entire mountain.
The sound of the explosion was still there, and the people who resisted disappeared from the fog in an instant, as if there was no one below the whole time, leaving only the sound of bows and arrows and explosions lingering.
