Wolf smoke rises, swords roar, black clouds crush the city, and blood stains the battlefield.
The sound of strings was endless, and the endless rain of arrows frantically vented to the ground below, no matter how hard the shield was, it could not resist such an attack, and at the moment when the defense collapsed, the ruthless coldness instantly penetrated the fresh life behind the rear. The blood stains on the earth had not yet congealed, and new hot blood splattered again.
For the fall of a column of demon soldiers, the town guard sergeants above the city pass did not show the slightest mercy, two rows of archers alternately fired, behind them, each team of two was responsible for handing out the bright feather arrows. This kind of battle has long been proficient, and after every baptism of iron and blood, the soldiers left behind will surely be more fierce and powerful.
However, even if it was a continuous rain of arrows, it could not resist the demon soldiers who finally arrived under the city pass, and the closed fine iron gate was full of three layers, which was even more difficult to break through than the bluestone city wall. Every time the city is attacked, the demon army will not waste excess combat power on it, but will use the hook and lock cloud ladder together, intending to directly climb the city tower.
The castle tower is very high, thirty meters upward. But in the face of the strong physique of the demon race, it is not difficult to overcome. Once you climb the tower and start a white-knuckle battle, the advantage of the original defense line will no longer be there. Even if a seasoned human soldier is against a demon soldier, he usually has to have three enemies and one to gain the upper hand. In addition, the castle tower is narrow, and once a white-knuckle battle begins, the archers in charge of sniping will also be hindered.
"Stop them!"
On the tower of the city, the commander raised his voice to order.
A group of fierce soldiers who had already been ready fastened the ropes around their waists, jumped directly from the city tower without fear, holding a shield in their left hand and an axe in their right hand, slashing with all their strength to block the demon soldiers who were climbing up, and bursts of flesh and blood were splashed.
At the same time, several bricks and stones on the city wall moved, and in the deep hole exposed, spears and spears pierced. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen demon soldiers who were climbing up fell with blood splashing. However, there are too many predecessors and successors, and such a block can only slow down the offensive, and it is impossible to block it completely.
And in the distance of the battlefield, several wooden carts slowly propelled forward, and the towering inclined stairs were large enough to send large numbers of troops directly to the towers. Behind the rows of fence-style wooden shields on the giant cart, you can also faintly glimpse a large number of demon soldiers waiting for them.
"Flying stone fire prepare, aim at the siege giant car in the distance!"
The commander hurriedly roared, due to the dangerous terrain of the city here, it is relatively difficult to transport supplies in the rear, resulting in some large defensive equipment, he will not order the use of some large defensive equipment unless it is absolutely necessary. He is very familiar with the successful methods of the demons, and naturally knows when and what measures to take.
On the back of the tower, the chains were straightened and pulled, and the thick main arm of the trebuchet leaned downward, and when the huge and heavy boulder was loaded, the sergeant who had been waiting for a long time poured hot oil on the cauldron and then lit the flames.
"Launch!"
For! For! For! For! Step on!
The main arm of the trebuchet rotated together, and the burning boulder flew into the sky in an arc of red, roaring and falling to the ground with a smashing force like a flying fire.
Thundered!
The earth trembled, the crazy tremors spread among the demon army, and the flames that ignited were also spreading, wantonly devouring life.
However, the first round of attacks did not hit any of the giant cars, and one of the drawbacks of such a powerful device was that the hit rate was so bad that it had to be readjusted for each shot.
"Prepare again, aim at the launch!"
The commander drank again, and there was a tugging sound behind him, and a new burning boulder had been placed.
Soon, the trebuchet's main arm began to turn, and the dull sound was far away, but it didn't attract much attention in the hustle and bustle of the battlefield.
It's just that in the midst of that hustle and bustle, the commander suddenly heard a swift sound of breaking through the air, and suddenly looked at it, only to see three more jet black lights in the void, like lightning lightning, obliquely rising and shooting straight at the city tower.
"Be careful, get down all of your stomach!"
At the sound of the order, many archers who were wound up instantly squatted and gave up this round of shooting opportunities.
After a moment, the commander suddenly discovered a very serious problem, and his judgment was wrong. Those three extraordinary arrows were not aimed at the soldiers on the city tower at all. Those three directions are exactly where the main arm of the trebuchet in the rear is about to break out of the city wall to cover the erection.
"It's not good, get out of the way!"
At the moment when the roar came out, the commander's eyes looked back and saw the black arrows passing through the castle tower grazing the city pass behind him, and the middle of it was erected above the main arm behind him.
Sneering –
The piercing tearing sound was uncomfortable. But what is even more terrifying is still to come, at the end of the broken main arm, the scorching boulder that shot out is already insufficient, and with the help of the remaining momentum, it throws a fall, coupled with the deviation of the angle, it failed to hit the battlefield in front of it at all, but fell on the city tower with a bang.
Thundered!
Only two of them hit the tower, and the third smashed against the city wall behind them. However, even so, the heat and vibration spread wildly above the tower, and most of the defensive formation collapsed in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, a roar sounded from the demon army, and the movements of all the soldiers were accelerating, rushing to the city tower at all costs, and the five giant cars were also approaching with all their might.
Soon, the first wave of demon soldiers jumped up to the tower, and the defensive formation of the human soldiers had not yet been reorganized.
The white-knuckle battle suddenly rose.
……
Bite!
A rod of silver light was nailed obliquely into the earth, and along with it was a strong body, a fierce appearance that humans could not achieve.
In front of him, a soldier who had fallen off his horse had escaped death, his face was frightened, and he hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a large group of men and horses raising puffs of smoke and dust standing in his direction. Suddenly, a glimmer of hope crossed his eyes.
Especially when he saw the big flag raised in the team, he was even more excited.
"What's going on, the narrow peak pass has been broken through? There are demons chasing you here! ”
It was Fang Huanlan who jumped in front of the soldier first, and the throwing gun just now was also from her, and the accuracy was secretly praised by the Chiyan Legion who was traveling with her.
"It hasn't been broken through again, but it has been stormed and the defense line is retreating. Fortunately, the gate was not opened, and a large number of demon troops who were blocked outside the gate could not enter. I was going to ask for help from the Desert Gate, but I didn't expect to be targeted by an enemy who broke through the castle tower, and I chased it all the way! ”
The soldier hurriedly replied, blood still oozing from under the ribs that he subconsciously covered with his hands.
"You don't have to call for help, I'm afraid there's a hard fight over there. Besides, here we are, the best reinforcements. ”
Marshal Liu Guozhao, who was riding on a horse, drank in a deep voice, took off the water bladder hanging on the side of the saddle and threw it to the soldiers below.
"You're hurt, rest for a while. Wait a minute, return to Sasaki Pass, and wait for our good news. ”
After taking the water bladder, the soldier stared at Liu Guozhao on the iron horse with wide eyes, and exclaimed: "Is it possible, this general is ......."
"General? It's a demeaning title. Marshal West is here in person, and it is impossible to lose the narrow peak pass! ”
Leaving these words, Fang Huanlan rode forward. The Red Flame Legion and the rest of the newcomers also rose up and rushed again, rushing towards the position where the wolf smoke had risen in front of them.
The soldier who was left alone slowly looked back and said with a smile: "Now, the narrow peak pass has been saved......"
As he finished speaking, he leaned over, his back covered in scarlet blood. If it weren't for the last belief support, he probably wouldn't have survived this time.
"The demons can actually have someone chasing the soldiers for help here, presumably there is already chaos in the narrow peak pass."
Catching a glimpse of Ning Yue coming to his side, Fang Huanlan didn't wait for him to speak, and took the lead in speaking.
Ning Yue nodded and replied, "I'm just a little curious, how can you invite the Marshal of the West to come all the way over and rush to the aid of Narrow Peak Pass?" ”
"The barren gate is guarded by my grandfather himself, so naturally I don't need to go to another marshal. Further to the east, the Desert Gate Pass can also be easily helped. And only the terrain of the narrow peak pass on the west side is the most special, and it is not easy to send a large force to help. And the one in charge of guarding it is the strongest of Grandpa's righteous sons, and if he orders to light two wolf smokes, the situation will only be worse than we imagined. ”
"Wolf smoke? Looking at the past now, it would be more appropriate to call it the smoke of gunpowder ignited by the flames of war, right? ”
Looking into the distance, Ning Yue frowned. It's not that I haven't fought with demons, and it's not that I haven't participated in battles in large groups. It's just the first time that they have fought as an army to defend their territory.
……
"Defend the city gate, you must not let this place be breached!"
One of the blood-stained armor generals was roaring, his voice already a little hoarse. Moreover, his left arm had been severed, and the spear he was holding in his right hand was also wounded, and the tip of the spear was cut off in half.
At his side, hundreds of sergeants formed a circle, guarding the gates behind him. In front of them were countless corpses, both humans and demons, and dozens of warbands that were still fighting bloody.
The city tower has been broken through, and a large number of demons have jumped into the city and fought wantonly. In the current situation, there is no formed line of defense at all, and it can only be blocked in many places.
"General Pang, the situation is not quite right. Why haven't the guards in charge of the city gates seen anyone until now? ”
An adjutant general leaning against the wall glanced at the general, and there was panic in his eyes.
"Don't guess, it's important to hold the line of defense in front of you!"
The general drank, and suddenly, his eyes widened again, locked on a figure in front of him.
To be precise, he couldn't lock it, because the figure was very fast, fluttering from left to right, and with a big knife in his hand, several lives would fall in a pool of blood.
And that person was only wearing a lilac leather coat draped over his strong body and his long wild blood-colored hair that was spread out, all of which explained his identity, the demon.
"That guy, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with."
The general gritted his teeth, stepped forward with his spear, and stepped out of the last line of defense of the city gate.
"The enemy general is a common name, even if it is a demon clan, this general will not kill the nameless!"
Hearing this, the demon general snorted coldly and replied, "You don't need to know. ”
In an instant, he suddenly leaped forward, swinging his big knife to slash the cold rays almost obscuring the sunlight shining in the sky, and with a bang, the majestic force roared and smashed down.
Rumble!
The gun was broken, the person died, and the knife was cut in two.
The ground bombarded by the big knife was dented and cracked, and five soldiers who had been affected fell on both sides, lying on the ground vomiting blood.
"If you don't want to die, get out of the way."
Glancing at the gate that was being blocked by the retreating soldiers, the demon general drank fiercely. However, with this drink, the eyes of many sergeants were resolutely more determined.
With another snort, the demon general shouted, "Why do humans always kill themselves like this? Then I will fulfill you. ”
The knife was raised, and a strange cold light filled the blade, and it fell with a slash.
But in an instant, the demon general's eyes changed slightly, and he suddenly turned around and slashed back, hitting behind him.
Ping!
Specks of light flew through the cracks, and a condensed arrow withered. In the distance, a young man shook his head and lowered his left hand. Above the index finger, a black ring flashed with a faint silver light.
"It seems that these ten-star crossbow arrows will need some time to run in."
With a slight chill in his heart, the demon general left the sergeant behind him, stepped forward with a big knife, and shouted, "Who are you?" ”
At least in his opinion, the other party is not wearing the armor of the army, and it does not look like the defenders here.
Reaching out and holding down the hilt of the sword, the familiar touch came through his fingertips, Ning Yue pulled the corners of his mouth, and sneered: "It's okay to tell you, I'm the one who killed you!" ”
Zheng –
The sword is unsheathed, and the red light flies!
