Chapter 147: Soldiers Descend on the City
Lin Fan and the three young men of the Han family lifted the gourd, walked quickly, and returned to Xueyadu, but before they entered the palace, they suddenly heard a sound of impatient footsteps in front of them, and hundreds of people wearing jīng iron armor walked in quickly.
The first person with a white face and long beard, described as elegant, is Mr. Xie, in which he is still standing a medium-sized, dark-skinned man, who looks very jīng, but at this time his eyes are a little wild.
As soon as he saw Lin Fan, he immediately made a gesture and said urgently: "His subordinate Wang Yong neglected to take precautions and lost Hanjiabao, and he deserved to die, please punish the Grand Duke." The soldiers behind him glanced at each other and knelt down.
"What, Hanjiabao has been lost?" Lin Fan's face changed, and the first thought in his heart was that he should run away, but now that everyone was surrounded in the middle, he couldn't show what he cared about, so he had to force himself to calm down, "Didn't you say that relying on Hujiabao's natural danger, it would no longer be a problem to defend for twenty years, how could it be just a few rì to let the city be breached?" ”
"The Grand Duke doesn't know, the alliance of the four countries in the snow region, I don't know where the people of the snow crystal clan were invited, the snow crystal people are a strange creature made of ice crystals, they have the ability to control snow, and they can directly form a cloud ladder with ice and snow, Wang Shoujiang was careless for a while, so that the alliance forces of the four countries in the snow region captured Hanjiabao like lightning." Mr. Xie raised his head and said in a deep voice.
"Snow Crystal? Hundreds of alien races? "Lin Fan had read some secret and miscellaneous books before, which recorded the characteristics and appearances of some hundred types of alien races, and he still remembered that the hundred kinds of alien races were another kind of strange life in addition to the human race and the orc race;
In addition to the Snow Crystal People, there are also more than 100 alien life races such as Flame People, Shadow People, and Two-Faced People.
After thinking for a while, looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Lin Fan had to say, "No need to be polite, get up-" But at this moment, before he finished speaking, there was a sudden earth-shattering shout and rumbling sound outside the city.
"What's going on?" Everyone's faces changed in unison, and Lin Fan was also shocked, and secretly said: "Won't even Xueya be broken, it seems that you have to hurry up." ”
"The subordinates have ordered someone to go to investigate......" Mr. Xie had just finished his sentence, when there was a rapid sound of beast hooves at the city gate, everyone turned their heads together, only to see a guard flying down and riding down, and said urgently: "Hanjiabao has fallen, and the general of the four countries in the snowy region, the black wolf, has personally led an army of 500,000 troops, and has come to the city of Xueya!" ”
"What, so fast?" Everyone looked at each other, and Mr. Xie looked back at Lin Fan and said, "Grand Duke, what should we do now?" ”
"How do I know what to do, if it's extinguished, it's gone, what's my business." At this time, Lin Fan's face was also very bad-looking, but seeing that everyone was looking at him, he had no choice but to say, "Now go to the city to see the situation and make a decision." ”
Everyone agreed, surrounded the three layers of Lin Fanli and the outer three layers in the middle, and slowly walked towards the city wall.
Lin Fan went up to the city wall in a trance, standing at the head of the city, surrounded by the generals guarding the city, far away, in the white sky, the military tent rose and fell with the winding mountain, and a cold wind blew under the city, rolling up the sky full of snowflakes.
The sound of drums flickered and flickered, as if rising from the depths of the earth, wisps mixed together, and then the harmonies rang out, bursting out in the air with a shocking sound, and groups of soldiers poured out of the camp like water, and on the snow-white plains, tens of thousands of troops lined up, shouts and cold winds hissed one after another, and the army pressed towards the city.
Lin Fan took his mind back, stared at it carefully, and found that there were indeed thousands of Snow Crystal Clansmen in front of the coalition forces of the four countries in the Snow Region, and their appearance was the same as that of humans, the only difference was that they were all made of ice crystals, hidden in this vast snow, and it was really impossible to see them if they were not careful.
Whenever the Snow Crystal people passed, a ladder of ice clouds would automatically form in front of them, and in this way, the follow-up troops slowly walked along the ladders they left behind, slowly walking towards the hillside, and the thousands of strong bows and giant crossbows at the head of the city set up the rough granite battlements, and the trebuchets were full of sharp stones, and the ropes tied to the huge rolling logs were broken straight.
When the cloud ladder built by the Xuejing people was still thousands of steps away from the city wall, tens of thousands of the pioneers of the four snowy regions had already sent out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth, and in an instant, the charge began.
The sound of crossbows and the rumble of rolling logs and stones resounded over the hillside, and a terrible scream came from the mouths of the soldiers of the four snowy countries, powerful arrows pierced their leather cuirasses, and the bronze helmets were dented by the impact of the falling boulders, and flesh scattered from the cracks and sprinkled among the white snow.
The hard and heavy rolling logs knocked over the towering ladder made of pure ice, and the soldiers were pressed underneath, letting out a heart-rending howl, only to see Lin Fan was also sweating, although he had also killed people, but the remnants of the battlefield, such as the fighting, destruction, flesh and blood, and the sea of corpses and blood, were a little unbearable.
Under the strong arrows, the enemy army gradually became a little unable to resist, and retreated, and the sergeants of Xueya Country took advantage of the terrain to win a rare battle, and their morale was greatly boosted, and tens of thousands of defenders shouted in unison, echoing with the war drums in the distance, for a long time.
"Boom", rows of long arrows flashed in the air, and dozens of sergeants standing at the head of the city, each with a hole in their bodies, fell off their hands with weapons in their hands, swirled in the air, and fell under the blood-stained corners of the city.
Everyone was dumbfounded for a while, and looked around: I saw a row of soldiers with bows standing under the city, and in front of it was a black horse-shaped creature, but on the horse's head was a long sharp horn, emitting a faint cold light, the horse's hooves were flying, the mane was furious, and a black-robed general was on the saddle, holding a huge bow, pointing at the head of the city.
Hearing only the sound of "Boom", the second row of arrows arrived again, and this row of arrows again killed dozens of defenders.
