Chapter 179: A Sword Slashes the City
The next day, hundreds of thousands of troops were divided into three gates, silent, and ready for battle.
Qi Yufeng held the sword in his hand, climbed high and stood, only to hear a rumbling sound from afar, a big earthquake trembled, and smoke rose in the distance, knowing that it was Yang Yuanhai who had already attacked the city first according to the agreement.
He held the sword in his hand, raised his hand and shouted: "Drive out the Tartars and restore China!" The sound spread far away, like a heavy thunderbolt, covering the four fields.
When the generals and martial arts masters of various sects heard this, their hearts were shaken, their blood boiled, and they all shouted loudly: "Drive out the Tartars and restore China!" ”
Immediately, everyone stepped forward together, accompanied by the continuous approach of rolling logs, siege hammers, arrow towers, rushing cars, building cars, and stone throwers, and they all attacked under the gate of Dadu.
Qi Yufeng's army, under this capital, has been staying for more than half a month, Peng Yingyu mobilized 100,000 people, day and night, piling up soil, has already piled up a high mountain outside the city.
Many martial arts heroes rushed up the hillside, each holding a sword to protect themselves, performing a stunt, and leaping into the city wall, and then heard a shout and a fight, constantly resounding from the city.
But these martial arts people who can leap into the city are a minority after all, and more armies still have to conquer the city gate before they can enter.
Qi Yufeng has been in the west for a long time, and there are many wars and turmoil in its place, and it is to the princes and nobles, and they do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build a stone castle as a residence, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is better than countless small cities in the Central Plains, and often fights a small-scale siege war, which has to be three or five years.
But because of this, siege techniques were particularly developed in the West, and this time he brought Abraham, a scholar from the original Assasin faction, to sit in the middle of the army and attack from the force. Ladders, holes in the ground. Shelling, to sieges and water attacks. All kinds of strategies were frequently implemented, but seeing the army blooming on all sides, they were very busy.
However, the city of the capital is strong, almost no less than the Diaoyu City of the Southern Song Dynasty in the past, and it is the first strong city in the world today.
How strong is this soil?
According to Wei Yixiao, the blue-winged bat king, this kind of earthen wall made of rice soup is poured. It can even be used as a whetstone!
Qi Yufeng saw the giant arrows, big trees, and stones hit the wall, but only left white spots, and various ways such as flying buildings, cloud buildings, cloud ladders, tunnels, etc., attacked from all sides, but under the exhaustion of the Yuan Dynasty army, an hour passed, and the Ming army still did not conquer the city, but suffered heavy casualties.
Immediately, he could no longer sit still. First, he asked Peng Yingyu and Abraham to hold the Chinese army and dispatch troops, while he ignored everyone's obstruction and held three swords. When I climbed the dirt slope, I shot into the city wall.
He came to the battlefield in person and did not have time to check four times. I noticed the sound of footsteps around me. Dozens of guards swarmed in, or armed with spears. or take a single sword, and encircle him in the midst of it.
I saw dozens of guards stepping forward in unison. With a loud shout, the spear stabbed out, already covering his figure.
When Qi Yufeng saw it, his heart was clear, and it was no wonder that many martial arts masters had been fighting for an hour, but there was no progress.
It turns out that these dozens of soldiers are in accordance with the method of the Nine Palaces Array, each grid of soldiers will be interspersed, gradually like one, intertwined with each other, endless changes, no matter how high your martial arts are, in the face of the continuous chain of attacks of this long spear and short sword, I don't understand the essence of its formation, and it is difficult to resist after all.
Qi Yufeng knew that this was a method used to deal with people in the martial arts, and there must be a master in this city who gave advice to Emperor Yuan Shun, and immediately the long sword was unsheathed, but when he saw a blue light, it was endless, and the long sword opened and closed, sending and receiving freely, and dozens of heads fell to the ground in an instant.
He looked to his side and saw several women from the Emei faction who were in a bitter battle, and immediately rushed forward to kill all the enemies, shouting, "Follow me to the city gate!" ”
When he exhaled, his body was already like a sharp arrow off the string, and he flew out with a sharp roar of lightning, and along the way, the three swords flew over, killing people and opening up a long road.
Those female disciples of the Emei faction looked at his back, stunned for a long time, before they reflected, cheered loudly, and then rushed over with a long sword in their hands.
Qi Yufeng is proficient in swordsmanship, his posture is steady, he is vertical and horizontal, and he is wishful, only to see him rush to kill three or four miles in one go, until he is under the city gate, those female nuns of the Emei faction have not yet rushed over.
He raised his eyes and saw that the word "Jiande Gate" was engraved on the top of the city tower, and countless soldiers stood on the top of the city tower, holding bows and arrows and swords, and were looking at themselves dumbfounded.
He stood at the head of the city and looked into the distance, but he saw the plains and green fields, the rivers and mountains were picturesque, the air was quiet and the Tianshan Mountains were quiet, the light was high, and the beautiful rivers and mountains were so beautiful, but there was a group of people who fought the ground, and they fought to the death.
When he exhaled, he suddenly heard a distant 'wave', a sharp arrow shot towards him, and when he turned around, he saw a general shouting from a distance: "Set fire!" ”
Qi Yufeng's long sword swirled, smashing the arrow, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the sword general looked resolute. His face was dark, but he was an old acquaintance, and it turned out that this Mongolian officer was Nahachu, who was besieging the lord of Agai in Shaanxi back then.
This Naha is originally a descendant of Mu Huali, one of the four heroes of Genghis Khan, originally belonged to the ten thousand households of Taiping Road, he was good at governing the army, and his temperament was resolute, and now he has been worshiped as a captain by Emperor Yuan Shun. Feng Kaiyuan King, commanded most of the people, and fought against Qi Yufeng.
And Naha came out of the side, his eyes flashed, and his appearance was obscene, it was Chelit Moor, the retainer of King Liang back then.
The two looked at each other, Naha raised his hand to hold an arrow and stretched his bow, his right hand was loosened, and an arrow landed on the strong wind, and shot towards Qi Yufeng.
Qi Yufeng originally thought that among the Yuan soldiers, there was no talent at this time, as long as he did not fall into the enemy camp. With the advantage of the sword, it didn't matter, but he didn't care, but when he suddenly heard the sound of the breaking wind, he knew that this arrow was extremely urgent, and this person's internal strength was profound, and it was a little stronger than back then.
Immediately he raised his sword and drew his arrows, but when he saw that Nahar's arrow was to no avail, he turned and left. The mouth shouted: "Raise the fire! ”
It turned out that he had already piled up firewood and grass under this city tower, just waiting for the Ming army masters to step forward. So he set fire to the city, and now he has caught such a big fish. And he did not hesitate. Suddenly, the firewood and grass piled up on the side of the table caught fire, and thick smoke rose.
Those nuns of the Emei faction saw the flames rising in the black smoke, and Qi Yufeng was immediately besieged in the fire, and immediately looked left and right one by one, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the shouts in the distance like thunder, and thousands of Mongolian soldiers behind the battle were in sonorous armor, snatching out from both sides and killing everyone directly. Mongolian archers gather arrows like locusts. When the nuns saw it, their faces turned pale and crumbling.
Qi Yufeng trapped and fired, the heart said, this Tartar's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain is ingenious, but this formation is obviously to deal with the top masters, and the barbarian is skilled in bowing and horses, but this method is definitely unexpected.
At this very moment. Suddenly, on the tower of the Jiande Gate, nearly half a person high, the thick layer of red paint suddenly cracked, and I couldn't help but be taken aback. The heart said that the pillars of the city gate are all hundred-year-old trees, how fire-resistant, why is it so not fire-resistant?
He was wondering to himself. Suddenly, I saw the huge pillar, and the opening on the patent leather cracked even more with a snort. It was like a miserable wound, and the skin was turning outward. Reveal the wood inside.
And then...... The solid wood inside is also slowly cracking!
In fact, there is more than this one pillar, but the wooden pillars, railings, and compartment walls on the top floor of the entire city tower have begun to grow a crack along the half-human heights, and the crack gradually spreads, gradually stretches, and gradually connects into one. It was as if a ghostly craft had drawn an ink line along that place in an instant.
But the line is not drawn with ink, but with a sword.
There was a crisp click, and the first thing to fall was the tall roof of the tower, and I saw that the huge roof broke down, fell to the ground, and smashed to pieces.
Then there was a loud bang.
At this time, the army had already surrounded the Emei nuns, and only Naha and dozens of his cronies and subordinates surrounded him, listening to the voice. These people subconsciously looked up to the upper right.
Then all the people were dumbfounded, including Naha, whose eyes were full of shock and fear, and all of them had their mouths wide open, revealing that they were either completely white, or full of tea stains, or missing a few teeth, so that the dust and gravel that gradually spread into the sky blew into their mouths. They didn't react in the slightest.
The tower collapsed.
To be precise, it should be that the top floor of the castle tower collapsed.
But I saw that the towers of the tall and majestic Jiande Gate were collapsing neatly in a desperate posture at this time, shaking the sky full of dust!
The dust gradually fell, and everyone could see clearly, and the top floor of the Jiande Gate seemed to have been cut open by a heavenly sword. The top collapsed, leaving only half of the neat compartment and furnishings.
The tower was neatly broken, and the fracture was so smooth that it really looked like a great sword had cut through it. Then the earth wall burst apart, and in the dust, Qi Yufeng appeared in the form of a person.
Qi Yufeng flew out of the fire, the long sword in his hand shining with cold light, and shouted: "Naha, the Yuan Dynasty has reached the end of the road, don't you know it?" ”
Naha was also very surprised when he saw that the fire tower could not trap him, and immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Shoot the arrows!" ”
In an instant, the Yuan soldiers fired hundreds of crossbows in unison, and arrows rained down. Qi Yufeng couldn't dodge, so he could only dance the long sword in his hand like a shield with bright light, blocking the arrow feathers one after another.
I saw a few arrow feathers, stabbed and came, Qi Yufeng long sword plucked, so that the sword spine catched, lightly Shu ape arm, sword wind with arrow feathers in the air around an arc, and then excited like electricity, hundreds of long arrows turned out one after another, and in an instant I heard a few screams of "ah, ah", and some Yuan soldiers were killed by arrows. And from time to time, a long arrow fell on Qi Yufeng's body, and it was also shocked by his talisman robe, but there was not even a white spot left.
Naha sighed, seeing that he was so brave and stubborn, knowing that no matter how many people there were today, they couldn't trap this invulnerable young man, and now he was staying here, nothing more than adding to the casualties, and immediately shouted: "Go!" ”
As soon as he gave an order, his subordinates walked one after another like swimming dragons, patted their horses and left, Qi Yufeng rushed to kill for a while, killed and injured hundreds of people, and rescued many Emei nuns.
Qi Yufeng waited for the Yuan soldiers to leave, and when he looked back, he saw that Jiandemen was already a sea of fire at this time, if it was not burned for an hour or two, it would be difficult to stop, and it would be extremely difficult to make the army enter.
Immediately, he turned his head and said, "Do you still have the strength to rush and kill with me for a while?" ”
Many nuns who were monks did not answer, but Pei Jinyi replied loudly: "The Emei faction is willing to listen to the orders of the alliance leader!" ”
Qi Yufeng nodded, and said in his heart that after Zhou Zhiruo left, this Emei faction was headed by Pei Jinyi.
Immediately, he shouted: "There is a fire at Jiande Gate, we will go to Anzhen Gate, open the city gate, and lead the army into the pass." ”
The good players of the Emei faction nodded one after another, it was great to be able to earn credit behind a great master like Qi Yufeng.
Immediately Qi Yufeng took the lead, holding a sword in each hand, seeing people killing, seeing horses fall off horses, encountering rolling wood and stones, cannons and giant crossbows, all of which were smashed with a sword, although the Mongolian good hands were countless in the city, but no one could resist his move.
Everyone came to Anzhen's door, Qi Yufeng suddenly flew up like a whirlwind, dancing like a light eagle, the long sword in his hand seemed to become a part of his body, the tip of the sword came, and a little blood immediately bloomed, falling all over the sky, under the background of the firelight, it looked colorful and rotten.
He rushed to the head of the city to fight, the city gate organ was unattended, and the nuns of the Emei faction were behind, and they opened the noose of the city gate one after another, put down the turntable, and only heard the sound of the clucking noose, and the gate of the capital city that had not been lost for a hundred years was finally opened.
