Chapter 401: The Great War is Imminent
The night was dark and oppressive, except for the stars illuminated by the torches, the rest were all out of sight.
The snow was flying all over the sky, densely covered in front of Jiang Zuiyao's eyes, and everything that was already pitch black made people even more unable to open their eyes.
After waiting for a long time, I felt the earth tremble, accompanied by a loud bang, and when I looked at it, I couldn't see anything in the pitch black, but I could feel the shock ahead.
As the sound got closer and closer, closer and closer, an army of 300,000 approached, and a group of black and powerful people came with torches.
Jiang Zuiyao, who was standing on the city tower, searched hard for Shao Ziqing's figure, but it was too dark at night, and under the huge number of military horses, he couldn't tell the difference at all.
Jiang Zuiyao was a little anxious, and wanted to get closer, but she could only walk to the stone wall of the city tower, her body was tightly attached to the stone wall, and she looked at it carefully, and after looking at it for a long time, she still didn't see Shao Ziqing's shadow.
At this time, the soldiers and horses stopped outside the city wall, and a loud voice sounded: "Listen, the people of the Taixuan clan!" The Taixuan tribe slaughtered Liancheng, murdered the common people, and more than 1,000 people in Liancheng died in vain, and it is a capital crime to disobey the imperial court! If you are willing to be captured, you will not die! ”
It's Shao Ziqing! It's Shao Ziqing's voice!
Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, and she saw a sturdy body riding on a horse, holding a torch, and that person was Wuxian. Searching around Wuxian, his eyes finally fell on the horse beside him.
The two of them stood at the front of the million-strong army, under the darkness, although they couldn't see their faces clearly, they could judge from their figures that it was Shao Ziqing!
found Shao Ziqing's person, Jiang Zuiyao's whole heart was entangled, and her heart was like overturning a five-flavor bottle, which was complicated.
Worried, frightened, scared, panicked......
and a series of negative emotions came to her face, making Jiang Zuiyao not know what to do.
Unable to wait for his emotions to stabilize, the head of the gate stood on top of the city tower and roared loudly: "Shao Ziqing! You betrayed the Taixuan clan and deceived me, which is also a capital crime! ”
In this way, there is no need to say anything more.
The wind swept through the snow, and the horses were frightened, and they paced in a panic and were a little unsteady on their feet.
Shao Ziqing stood on the horse, locked the horse rope, controlled the horse, raised his head and shouted: "Until now, are you still obsessed?" Just because you are too Xuan, you also want to capture the imperial court? Who the hell is the person behind you? Is it the crown prince or the regent? ”
The head laughed wildly: "Hahaha, Shao Ziqing, who do you think you are?" Do you deserve to question me? ”
Immediately afterwards, Shao Ziqing's angry voice sounded: "You destroyed the city in one fell swoop, regardless of the safety of thousands of people, united with traitors in the DPRK and China to rebel, aided and abetted the abuse, and all the piles were capital crimes of beheading, which one wronged you?" As long as you are willing to tie your hands and arrest you, the court will spare you from death! ”
The head of the house pulled the sword out of the scabbard with an awe-inspiring attitude, and roared angrily: "Tied up? Oh, then it depends on your ability! Kill! ”
didn't wait for the soldiers and horses of the court to make a move, but the head of the house was the wicked who shot first.
At the sound of an order, there was a sound of light power flying in his ears, but after a moment's effort, he saw hundreds of people from the Taixuan clan, fighting from the city tower and from the city tower.
Although Shao Ziqing couldn't sit still, the general who was standing behind him and commanding the troops and horses immediately gave an order, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses immediately lined up in formation.
The horsemen in the front row raised their swords and hammers and spears to fight, and the fierce horses stepped on the snow against the wind and snow, and the earth trembled.
The people of the Taixuan clan rose to the challenge, none of them flinched, they fought together, although Qi Yu took advantage of the position on the horse, but the people of the Taixuan clan were all martial arts masters, and they easily avoided the key points.
In a matter of moments, the bitter wails of the horses were heard, and the horses fell in droves, dead and wounded, and crippled.
In an instant, the blood of the horses stained the earth red, and piece by piece smeared and stained the snow.
Later, I heard the wails of the soldiers, and died tragically in various postures under the sword of the Taixuan clan.
At this time, the soldiers in the back row raised their shields to protect, and behind the shields, tens of thousands of soldiers drew their bows and shot arrows, accompanied by a command: "Shoot!" ”
"Whoosh swish......", the sound of countless attacks and ejections sounded piercingly, and after that, the bow and arrows rained down like a torrent of rain, and there was no way to dodge.
Jiang Zuiyao, who was standing on the city tower, saw this scene, and was secretly happy in his heart, even if the people of the Taixuan clan were strong in martial arts, they were afraid that they would not be able to avoid this rain of bullets, and they would inevitably be pierced by thousands of arrows, and there was nowhere to escape.
However, Jiang Zuiyao still thought about the situation too well.
In the face of such a huge rain of arrows, the people of the Taixuan tribe did not flinch in the slightest, only to see a person from the Taixuan tribe soaring into the air, and under the trick, a gust of wind whirled, and with a wave of his hand, the falling arrows were directly knocked away, scattering all over the place.
Then, looking at the other end, a person from the Taixuan tribe actually lifted up the earth's turf, forming a once-hard earthen wall, and all the sharp swords were set on the earthen wall, and the people standing behind were unharmed.
At this moment, Jiang Zuiyao's heart began to tremble.
It's too strong, it's too strong!
Under the thousands of troops, although they are all refined soldiers, all the attacks are very weak under the Taixuan clan, which is strong in martial arts.
Jiang Zuiyao subconsciously turned his head to look at Chopping Wind, there were still several masters standing beside him, and his eyes were coldly watching the battle under the city wall.
They are powerful people who haven't made a move yet, what should they do? What should Shao Ziqing do?
At this moment, Shao Ziqing did not panic, and said a few words to Wuxian beside him, Wuxian turned around and shouted: "The 'Zhao' members listen to the order, attack with all their might, and must not retreat, if anyone can take off the head of the Taixuan clan, he will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw more than a dozen people flying out of the military horses, all of whom were faces that Jiang Zuiyao had never seen.
The head of the city wall immediately asked, "What is the origin of these people?" ”
Chopping Feng replied: "They are all Jianghu people who Shao Ziqing recruited troops and horses to work for him in the country, and they are also masters wanted by various countries, so they cannot be underestimated." ”
Then, a man waiting to fight said, "Master, let me go." ”
The head waved his hand and said, "Let's take a look and make a decision." ”
At this moment, Chopping Wind suddenly glanced at Jiang Zuiyao, turned his head to the head and said, "Master, take Jiang Zuiyao down first and guard it strictly." ”
The head of the house also noticed Jiang Zuiyao's existence, turned his head to look at Jiang Zuiyao, retracted his gaze contemptuously, and nodded.
After that, someone came over and captured Jiang Zuiyao.
Jiang Zuiyao struggled desperately: "Let go of me!" I'm not going! Let me go! ”
However, everything was useless, and Jiang Zuiyao was forcibly taken down the city tower by the people of the Taixuan clan.
