Chapter 174: Black Cloud Long Sword Capital!

"General, the number of defenders in the city is unknown."

"The armor of the defenders is similar to ours, and it should be the military generals of our civilization."

Hua Mulan led a team of Iron Eagle scout cavalry to explore outside the city, and the city was lined with arrow towers, which were easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Each city is guarded by a king-level or emperor-level general, and the strength of the army is completely unknown to all the lords involved in the national war.

In addition, the strength of the defenders will also affect the difficulty of the siege.

If you encounter defenders like Zhang Xun, Liu Renzhan, and Tian Dan, it will be a nightmare for the attacker.

The main general of this city, according to Mulan's judgment, is the hero of ancient China, not the hero of other civilizations.

The generals of ancient Huaxia accounted for a large proportion, so it is not surprising that the defenders of the first city encountered were the generals of ancient Huaxia.

The guards of this city, dressed in black and armor, looked at Hua Mulan and the three thousand iron eagle scout cavalry who appeared under the city, and his eyes lit up with fighting intent: "Open the city gate and go out of the city to fight!" ”

Hua Mulan was waiting for Chu Tian's main force to arrive, when the heavy city gate suddenly opened, and a team of black-armored soldiers came out of the city to attack the Iron Eagle Scouts!

The black-armored soldier draws his sword, and the sword aura is rampant!

Mulan has experienced a hundred battles, and she knows the strength of the enemy army at a glance.

The black-armored soldier in front of him is definitely not an ordinary soldier.

Or, the commander of every city has an elite army!

"Test their strength!"

Mulan intends to be tempted, so she fights the black-armored soldiers who leave the city.

The Iron Eagle scout cavalry used their cavalry skills to shoot arrows at the black-armored soldiers, and a rain of arrows woven by thousands of arrows covered the black-armored soldiers.

The black-armored soldier swept with a sharp sword to resist the rain of arrows!

This group of black-armored soldiers, like the sword god Xia Houen of Changbanpo, is proficient in swordsmanship, with sword qi vertical and horizontal, and blocking the rain of arrows!

The cavalry of the Iron Eagle Scout Cavalry did not achieve the results expected by Mulan.

This is definitely a high-level army, and it is a division of a hundred battles!

"Retreat!"

After all, Mulan was only a pioneer scout, and when she found out that the black-armored soldiers were good at using long swords, and riding and shooting had little effect on the black-armored soldiers, she immediately changed her mind and chose to withdraw her troops.

First, Mulan's special class, Iron Eagle Scout, is good at reconnaissance and cavalry shooting, once the cavalry fails, the combat power is basically halved, and most of the melee combat is not the opponent of the black armor soldiers.

Second, most of the information of the black armor soldier has been learned by Mulan.

The hundreds of iron eagle scouts that fell behind had no time to retreat, and the sabers collided with the long swords of the black-armored soldiers!

Not much different from Mulan's estimate, the two armies fought in close combat, and the black armor soldier sword was vertical and horizontal, piercing the light armor of the Iron Eagle Scout, and slashing dozens of Iron Eagle Scouts in a row!

"Retreat!"

Hua Mulan chose to be the queen of the palace in person, and Tang Dao cut off the opponent's black sword and killed the black armor soldier!

Several black-armored soldiers drew their swords at the same time, stabbing at Mulan from different directions, and were repelled by Mulan.

After losing 300 cavalry, the Iron Eagle scouts retreated one after another, while Mulan fought hard, temporarily repelled the black-armored soldiers, and rushed out of the enemy formation on Sa Luzi, and the black-armored soldiers could not stop them.

Famous horses such as Jueying and Sa Lu Zi can save the owner's life at a critical moment.

"The enemy is not weak, go back to the city and hold on."

The main commander of the black-armored soldiers will collect his troops and return to the city, and close the city to defend it.

Although he repelled Mulan's cavalry, he knew very well that Mulan's cavalry was only here to reconnoitre, and it was not the main force of the other party.

Hua Mulan rode Sa Lu Zi to join Chu Tian who came after her, and reported to Chu Tian about the battle with the black armor soldiers.

"Black-armored soldier who uses the sword as his primary weapon......"

Chu Tian thought for a moment, glanced at Xia Liang as a player, and thought of an elite group of people from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the Black Cloud Long Sword Capital of Yang Xingmi of the Southern Wu Kingdom.

The Black Cloud Long Sword Capital and the Silver Spear Effect Festival are all elite soldiers from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

Yang Shihou, who commanded the silver spear and the festival capital, is currently serving in the Western Liang Army in Chutian.

Most of the Black Cloud Swords are also seventh-order troops, so it is natural that Mulan will be repulsed.

"Yang Xingmi, King of Wu, is a very ambitious person, but Yang Xingmi's ability is a cut below that of Cao Cao, Yuwentai and others, he has no foundation of his own in the main world, and his lifespan is not long.

Chu Tian wanted to get the slightly famous Black Cloud Long Sword Capital.

Yang Xingmi is a prince of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, however, it is not impossible to appoint, as long as he has a shorter life than Chu Tian, there is no need to worry about Sima Yi seizing power.

Tens of thousands of Han soldiers came to the city, and Chinese craftsmen began to make Xiangyang cannons, bed crossbows, and ladders, which were bound to win the city.

Chutian sent people to persuade him to surrender under the city, but was shot by Yang Xingmi with random arrows.

The defenders of the national war, even if they judge the situation, will not surrender.

"I can only attack."

Fortunately, Yang Xingmi was not a defensive general, so Chu Tian would not hit his head in this city.

It's just that it takes some time and is indispensable.

While making weapons to attack the city, Chu Tianjia sent scouts to probe the locations of other cities, as well as the enemies on this island.

When Chutian operated, Zhou Yu and Zheng He's sailors were not willing to be lonely, and sent Gan Ning and Lü Meng to look for fleets of other civilizations in the nearby seas.

Gan Ning led 800 brocade sail thieves with bows and arrows, bird feathers on their heads, and bells on their bodies, and rode twelve warships.

Lü Meng was dressed in white and patrolled with twenty warships to meet Gan Ning.

The fog on the sea surface of the battlefield of the national war increased the danger of naval warfare, and in the sea fog, dangers arose.

"Take down the bell!"

Gan Ning suddenly realized that the existence of the bell might attract the warships of hostile civilizations.

Warships haunt the sea mist.

Gan Ning stood on the bow of the warship, looking at all directions and listening to all directions, and the sound of the waves around him changed significantly.

Gan Ning shouted in a low voice: "Everyone must be careful! ”

The Eight Hundred Sail Thieves also realized that the danger was approaching, and they were cautious and did not dare to make a sound.

The paddling sailor slowed down and held his breath.

A behemoth looms in the sea mist, the sides and deck of the ship are covered with firecrackers and crossbows, and the Spanish hoplites, knights, musketeers, and crossbowmen are lined up.

Gan Ning's face was solemn.

If there was only such a behemoth, Gan Ning would not think so, and according to the changes in the waves and the black shadows that appeared in the sea fog, there were at least ten such large warships.

In addition to this, there were hundreds of other warships of various kinds.

It's a huge fleet.

The flotilla passed by Ganning's boat, not noticing Ganning hidden in the sea fog.

When the fleet left, Gan Ning broke out in a cold sweat.

"Could it be that this is the Invincible Armada that His Majesty is talking about?"

Gan Ning did feel a great deal of pressure from the fleets on the way.

The invincible armada of Spanish civilization and the Spanish phalanx once dominated for a while, and was the earliest great maritime hegemon, overpowering England and France, and plundering a large amount of gold from the Americas.

Unfortunately, the Spanish had a small population and spent a lot of money, so they were replaced by the English.

"Let's go back."

Gan Ning was reluctant to engage the Armada, and both sides were most likely to lose.

He went back to join Lu Meng.

Lü Meng compared the distance between the four islands and the main island: "The direction of this fleet is not our island, but the closest island to the main island. They want to seize the most advantageous position, and once the main island is opened, they will attack the main island as soon as possible. ”

Lü Meng immediately deduced the intention of the Invincible Armada.

The Armada has a strong position, and other lords who want to march on the main island may be blockaded or attacked by the Armadada.

Lü Meng and Gan Ning returned to the Fubo fleet, and Gan Ning described the encounter with the Invincible Armada to Zheng He, Zhou Yu and others.

"Sooner or later, we will have a battle with the Invincible Armada, and until Your Majesty conquers this island, we will defend it and must not act rashly."

Zheng He and Zhou Yu regarded the Invincible Armada as a great enemy, and the giant ship that Gan Ning saw was the Invincible Armada's galleon Saint-Martin, which was equivalent to the Great Fortune ship of the Han Empire.

On the fifth day of the national war, Chutian finally prepared siege equipment and sent troops to attack the city defended by Yang Xingmi, the king of Southern Wu, with the Black Cloud Long Sword, and the main force of the siege was Wu Qi's Wei Wushu!
