Chapter 14 - Attack and Defense of the High Platform (Part II)

Outside the wilderness, the two Clothed Envoys who were standing on the high ground to supervise the battle saw that the situation was not good, and the attack of the Spider Corps was seriously hindered, and the Bright-clothed Envoy wielding a giant hammer stood up and swung his hammer into the sky. There were already hundreds of demon bats in the sky where the riders got the order and immediately flew towards Xuancheng. At the same time, the other wiser messenger waved slightly behind him, and two huge black clouds rose up behind him, and after taking off, they instantly disappeared into the clouds in the sky and lost their traces, making it impossible to find them. At the same time, the two Mingyi caused the underground in front of them to shake violently, and the more mysterious army of the Dark Legion began to continue to attack Xuancheng after the failure of the Spider Legion's attack.

"Let's go, burn this city to ashes!" The Messenger of Bright Clothes ordered the lowliest humanoid soldiers in the Dark Legion, they were all the most ordinary ordinary soldiers who had not received the power of the Dark Evil God, and they were naturally the lowest in the Dark Legion. With the order of the Ming Yi envoy, more than 10,000 humanoid soldiers who had already retreated back had to return to the battlefield again to meet the enemy, but their combat effectiveness and defense were not enough, under the bombardment of fifteen trebuchets on the north wall of Xuancheng, the morale of these humanoid soldiers themselves became quite low because of the failure of the spider corps' attack, and the trebuchets threw boulders and smashed down, although they did not kill or injure many soldiers, but their morale was even more sluggish, and they began to retreat backwards.

At this time, the spider army on the eastern section of the city wall was facing the sharpest fire oil attack, and after the fire oil fell down the city wall, it ignited a rocket and shot down, and the spider standing on the spider silk could not resist the flames burning all over its body, and fell down the city wall and fell into the moat with a roar. The rider above also lost his foothold because the spider silk was burned, and fell into the moat screaming. This menacing spider legion has been killed and wounded more than half of them so far, and the remaining spider legions retreated to the side of the two messengers after the alarm bell rang, their attack has now been targeted, the spider's weakness has been found, and it will not be a wise move to force an attack anyway. In that case, it is wise to protect yourself as much as possible.

At the head of Xuancheng City, the Demon Bat rider who set off later had arrived and began to attack, the rider turned his spear in his hand and began to throw, the Demon Bat resisted the crossbow arrows fired from both sides through its dexterous body and movements, as well as its hard wings. When Xuan Lejun saw this scene, he immediately ordered all the bed crossbows to aim at the demon bat riders in the sky and start firing, these demon bats were similar to the spider corps that appeared before, although their bodies could resist ordinary arrows, but the iron crossbow arrows were not only hard but also extremely penetrating, and the demon bats could not resist. Because of this, as soon as the Demon Bat Riders approached the city, they immediately sought the target of attack on the heavy bed crossbow that was so important that it was placed on the battlements. As long as they are destroyed, their demon bats will never be hindered again.

But in the confrontation between the soldiers of the Qi State and the Demon Bat Riders in the past half month, it was already quite clear that the real target of these hundreds of Demon Bat Riders must be the bed crossbow. Therefore, when the Demon Bat Rider appeared at the head of the city, hundreds of soldiers armed with cowhide shields immediately formed a protective position for the bed crossbow in all directions, so that the Demon Bat Rider's throwing spear could not hit the bed crossbow. In the rear, the first round of iron crossbow arrows from the twenty bed crossbows launched by forty soldiers went down, and more than a dozen demon bats in the air screamed miserably and were shot through their wings or bodies, falling from the sky and falling into the moat. When the second round of iron crossbow arrows was loaded on the shelf, these demon bats unconsciously pulled up the demon bats and retreated backwards, they knew the power of these iron crossbow arrows, and their demon bats could not resist them. Besides, their characters themselves are not to break through Xuancheng, what they are enlightening is to contain the Qi army and attract attention. Now, their purpose has been achieved.

The attack of the Demon Bat Rider was also severely damaged by the Qi State, the battle of this attack has lasted for nearly two hours, Xuancheng has always been standing, the Mingyi envoy holding the giant hammer can't help but get anxious, "Or I will go up in person and directly smash the city to the ground!" His voice was extremely rough and dull, as thick as swallowing mountains, making people sound very uncomfortable. The defeat of the attack of the Dark Legion in front of him made him very unhappy, you must know that their Dark Legion is invincible and fearless, and now it is blocked by such a city, and the Spider Legion has suffered more than half of the casualties, this result has made him who has always been easy to get angry and has a relatively simple mind become manic.

Another rather cunning Mingyi envoy smiled faintly, showing quite indifference and calmness, "Why do we need to take action in person, the fire dragon earth dog has come out, even if we can't capture Xuancheng, it will fundamentally hit their rule, and that's enough." ”

"However, this will delay the appointment with the master, how can we explain to the master?" The bright-clothed man with the giant hammer couldn't help but worry about another matter.

"Hmph, do you need to remind me of this?I already have insight into the master's deep meaning," the rather clever Mingyi envoy really didn't want to explain these things to his companions, "Xuancheng is the capital of the Qi Kingdom, and here it is not only the monarch of the Qi Kingdom, but also the most advanced weapons of their most elite soldiers. If our offensive is too fierce, they will directly abandon Xuancheng and move south, and we will not be able to delay it in time. A slight slowdown in the offensive would make them feel as if there was still hope of holding Xuancheng, and they would not be prepared to retreat. When the time comes........."

"I understand, when the time comes, I will directly capture the monarch of the Qi State, and the Qi State will be self-defeating. The bright-clothed envoy with the giant hammer probably thought about it a little, and he became excited.

The Ming Yi envoy who was fiddling with the ancient book in his hand sneered, "This time, let them see the anger that we have been sealed for tens of thousands of years! Fire Dragon, attack!" His right hand pointed straight to the sky.

The dark clouds protruded from the head of Xuancheng City, and two black clouds suddenly attacked from the hidden clouds, and in front of the soldiers of the Qi State were two huge fiery red dragons with open wings, with five claws opening their dragon-shaped mouths, and the dragon's horns turned to instantly spray out circular black flame fireballs to directly attack the location of the twenty giant bed crossbows at the head of the city. The two fire dragons, one east and one west, hovered at the head of Xuancheng City respectively, and launched a powerful attack directly on Xuancheng.

This is also one of the special classes of the Dark Legion, with the huge black flame fireball roaring, the Qi soldiers who were protecting near the bed crossbow were directly knocked down by the huge impact of the fireball, and the roaring black flame fireball also destroyed several heavy bed crossbows. This sudden attack from within the clouds caught the Qi soldiers off guard, and the bed crossbow that had lost the protection of the soldiers instantly became the prey of the Demon Bat Rider.

Relying on the attack of the black flame fireball and the rising smoke to suppress the bed crossbow and the nearby Qi soldiers, the Demon Bat riders who had already retreated beyond the range of the bed crossbow returned. Ten spears were thrown with precision, and five bed crossbows were pierced from the center, falling apart and shattering to lose their aggressiveness.

In the city, Xuan Lejun and the two lieutenant generals Shi Lanbo Lu Deng saw this scene in front of them, and they couldn't help but feel a faint despair in their hearts, the strength of the Dark Legion was by no means comparable to them, and there was still a trace of the illusion that they might defeat the Dark Legion before. But now it seems that the strength of the Dark Legion is unpredictable, and they use power beyond what people can resist, and the two huge fire dragons that appear in front of them can most directly reflect the terrifying strength of the Dark Legion. Even the ancient creatures of the dragon clan, which had long disappeared from the continent, were used by him, which showed his strength.

"This, how can it be good?" Xuan Le Jun was as he spoke, and the second round of black flame fireballs roared, this time the direction that the fire dragon was aiming at was the trebuchet that was not in the same position as the heavy bed crossbow, and the direction of the fireball's attack was extremely accurate, and it hit the trebuchet impartially. As the fireball fell, both the trebuchet and the soldier who operated it fell into the flames and were burned to ashes.

"Quick! extinguish the fire with sediment!" After a short period of confusion, Xuan Lejun immediately regained his senses, he had used fire oil when defending against the attack of the feudal state, and knew that to extinguish the fire, he must use sediment to bury the fire and not use water to extinguish the fire. For this reason, when preparing for the war, he also specially ordered people to prepare a large amount of mud and sand to prevent possible fire attacks, and it turned out that in addition to not expecting the fire source to be a fire dragon, Xuan Lejun's preparations were quite sufficient.

After a brief period of confusion due to the previous black flame fireball attack, the next moment they received Xuan Lejun's order, they immediately began to pick up sand and soil and use it to fill the fire. While the head of Xuancheng City was in full swing to extinguish the fire, these two huge fire dragons had also aimed at Xuancheng City, and the warehouse group in the east of Xuancheng City was tantamount to the primary target of their attack. The black flame fireball roared past again, this time past the head of the northern wall of Xuancheng and spurted directly in the direction of the warehouse.

"Your Majesty...... Big things are wrong...... The warehouse is on fire!" A soldier who had witnessed the fireball crashing straight into the warehouse stumbled towards Xuan Lejun, who was fighting the fire with the soldiers, and he also saw the warehouse that was blazing.

"What!" Xuan Lejun was so engrossed in extinguishing the fire that he neglected to pay attention to the movement of the fire dragon, he looked back and saw the warehouse that had begun to burn, he also found that the city suddenly began to be chaotic, and the soldiers who were still patrolling suddenly fell to the ground, and even some were dragged into the ground and disappeared. Xuan Lejun hurriedly said to Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng behind him: "I must go and check the situation, and I will leave it to you here!

"Obey!" Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng glanced at each other, they both felt the pressure on their shoulders, staring at Xuan Lejun as he quickly descended the city and disappeared from their sight under the protection of hundreds of Purple Gold Forbidden Army. Lu Deng couldn't help but say to Shi Lanbo beside him with some worry: "Extinguishing the fire is not a long-term solution, I think we have to dispose of these two fire dragons." ”

Shi Rambo also agreed with this idea, but he couldn't help but shake his head after staring at it carefully, "The location of these two fire dragons is outside the range of the bow and crossbow, and now the heavy bed crossbow has been destroyed, not to mention that ordinary bows and arrows can not be shot, even if they are shot, they may not have a good effect, they are dragons, and bows and arrows may not be able to hurt them..........."

Lu Deng stared at the other two black flame fireballs that were whistling in front of them and flew over their heads, pondering for a moment, Lu Deng said in a low voice, "I have an idea, maybe it can be done!"

Before Lu Deng's words fell, a soldier with red blood stumbled over, and he shouted loudly to Lu Deng and Shi Rambo: "Two generals, something is wrong....... Outside the city, look outside the city.........."
