Chapter 741: Murderous Soldiers

Without a word, we immediately hid and arrived at the market.

After careful reconnaissance, it turned out that the Yin soldiers and the onicha had indeed closed the team, but there was a faint sound of fighting outside the city, and the characteristic hum of the taut bowstring fire.

Although there are occasional patrolling Yin soldiers, they are already wandering around aimlessly, patrolling for security.

"The south gate is facing the enemy, and the fight has started, and the road is no longer passable, so we will make a detour from the west gate." Ghost Ding said immediately.

Lu Ningxiang and I nodded, and then followed the ghost Ding to the west gate. Although there are some doubts, there is no sun, moon and stars here, how to divide the east and west, north and south?

After a short time, we came to the west gate, and at this time the gate was closed, and the guards of the Yin soldiers and ghosts were defending in circles and circles, and the city wall was even more flag-waving, and the swords were rattling.

The atmosphere was much more tense than in the city.

As soon as we got closer, we were pointed at hundreds of spears and arrows.

The ghost Ding immediately showed the token of white impermanence, and the Yin soldier keeper immediately walked over, glanced at the token, and his pupils shrank, and hurriedly raised his hand to signal that the danger was removed.

"Go out of the city on the orders of Bai Jun and open the door!" Ghost Ding said with great momentum.

"Okay!"

The goalkeeper nodded respectfully, then waved his hand and said loudly: "Open the city gates!" ”

"Open the gates!"

Someone should drink, at this time I heard the sound of whipping from the ground, and the four thick iron chains that went deep into the ground were tensed violently, and it should be that there were brute beasts pulling the chains underground.

The four chains are as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the other end is connected to the city wall, and the city wall is opened, and the mechanism inside is driven, and suddenly the sound of chirping and turning, and the city gate slowly opens.

My heart was pounding, good guy, this machine is really no one.

Take a closer look, in fact, this hanging is not the city gate, but the huge door stone, which occupies almost the entire city gate hole, and the door stone is hung up to reveal the city gate.

With such a mechanism design, if you reinforce the magic circle, you really can't think of any way to force it in from the outside.

The city gate is already thick and fatal, and it is not easy to break through the city gate, and the blocking stone falls, which is equivalent to a thicker gate, and the difficulty of breaking through it is no different from directly breaking through the city wall.

What's more, in the event of an emergency, the gatestone is a key insurance policy.

Cut off the iron chain, or destroy a key mechanism, and the blocking stone will fall with a bang, completely blocking the city gate hole, and even if the intruder occupies the city gate hole, it will be crushed and cut into two parts.

And this is only the west gate, the south gate facing the enemy, and the defense of the city gate will only be more perverted.

After the blocking stone was hoisted, the Yin soldiers immediately ran into the city gate hole, turned the mechanism, and slowly opened the thick city gate.

We passed quickly and headed out of town.

To be honest, this changed my impression of the Netherworld Underworld, which I had always thought was chaotic because of the mixed forces of all parties.

But now that I look at it, I don't see the mixture of forces, but I am deeply impressed by the orderly order and the high degree of unified organization.

These Yin soldiers are very rare elites, although the individual strength is not high, but the overall combat effectiveness is definitely very strong.

And this is not a small-scale organization, it is the entire underworld.

I underestimated the strength of the underworld, they have a large army, and the orders are prohibited, orderly, and well-trained.

Not to mention anything else, just the gate guard team of hundreds just now, I have only seen that kind of purging military appearance on the palace guards of the Demon Emperor Palace, and the murderous aura is awe-inspiring.

This makes me feel more urgent, the gap between the human race and the underworld is still very obvious.

Especially in terms of organization, the current human race is still scattered, and the Lingchu Forum has only united people's hearts, but has not yet organized people.

It seems that the intention is to initially establish an organization to win the championship, and it will be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

After leaving the West Side, we found that the road around the city was very narrow, and there was also an acropolis.

That is, the satellite city, there are at least more than 2,000 Yin troops stationed in the city, and with the condescending support of the head of the main city, the passage can be completely blocked.

With the token we were easily let go, and we requisitioned three Yin horses and rode all the way to the south.

When I arrived at the south, I realized that the Yin army of the second hall was attacking the main city at all, but the acropolis in the south.

The Acropolis was not bad, it was bigger and higher than the one on the west.

The Yin army besieging the city and the Yin army defending the city are dressed differently, the defenders are in black clothes and black armor, neatly uniform, while the besieging ones are more mixed, but the momentum is extraordinarily brave, and the number of people is about three thousand.

I made a general observation, and I was a little puzzled, although the Yin army in the second hall was very brave, one was the second, but the number of people was there, not to mention breaking through the main city, it was very difficult to break through the acropolis.

Although the Yin army of the first temple is not so brave, it is better equipped and occupies the advantage of the city's defense, and can also get the condescending support of the main city.

The advantages are very clear.

Why should it continue to be carried out in such a cheap siege war?

I then asked the ghost Ding, and the situation in the underworld, Night Shadow only said part of it, and didn't go into details.

Ghost Ding said: "My lord doesn't know, in fact, this kind of siege battle, almost every other month and half a month, this is King Li's strategy, siege is secondary, training is the top." ”

I was speechless for a while, and then I understood the reason after the ghost Ding explained.

It turned out that the problem was Li Qing, after Li Qing split the earth and sealed the marquis, he changed the taboo of the underworld, and actually recruited the evil ghosts and fierce spirits imprisoned in the depths of hell as soldiers, called fierce soldiers.

The fierce soldiers are particularly strong in combat, but the ferocity is also very great, such siege warfare, on the one hand, can release the ferocity of the fierce soldiers, on the other hand, it can train the soldiers.

And this has the advantage of creating an offensive, and over time, you will be good at attacking the city, and the enemy will only be good at defending the city.

The facts also confirmed Li Qing's strategy, as time went by, Li Qing's command became more and more adept at siege and field warfare, while although the Ghost Emperor's command was well-equipped, they could only retreat into the city to defend.

The Ghost Emperor also tried to reverse this situation, but after losing to Li Qing in several field battles of varying sizes and scales, he gave up.

In the final analysis, there is a bottom line, but there is no bottom line.

As the orthodox underworld, the Ghost Emperor naturally will not touch the taboo of the underworld, and Li Qing, a subversive, is not so particular.

In fact, the reason why Li Qing was able to go all the way to the four cities and directly hit the fifth hall was because of the power of the hellish demons and fierce spirits who hated the orthodoxy of the underworld.

Although such a siege cannot take the main city, at most the acropolis will be taken, and even if it is taken, it will not be able to defend it.

But this kind of training is not false at all, they are really attacking the city.

Because the progress of the siege is on Li Qing's side, it is counted as combat merits, and if you want to be promoted, you must achieve combat merits.

Compared to the hierarchical system on the Ghost Emperor's side, that side is obviously more energetic and has more desire for military exploits.

At this moment, the fierce soldiers who attacked the city were the leader, leading the Yin army behind to launch an offensive wave by wave, very brave, and some of the fierce soldiers had already stood on the city wall, expanding the occupation area, and moving towards the city gate.

Looking at this appearance, it is really necessary to open the city gate and occupy the acropolis.

The Yin soldiers defending the city resisted hard, but they were defeated and retreated, and ghosts, bows and arrows, and spears flew and were in chaos.

"This Li Qing is a traitor." Lu Ningxiang commented.

I nodded, the characteristic of a traitorous male is that he acts without scruples and does not compromise his means.

By recruiting evil spirits serving sentences in the depths of hell as soldiers, it is destroying the order of yin and yang reincarnation.

"Can you take it down?" I asked.

"This kind of siege intensity, it's not a big deal, and the support of the main city hasn't been launched yet." Ghost Ding shook his head and said, "But it's not bad to occupy the city, there will be rewards when you go back, and if you perform well, you will be added to the ranks." ”

"But only if it ...... They can go back alive. Lu Ningxiang looked at the head of the main city, her eyes flashing.

"Uh...... Right. Ghost Ding nodded hurriedly.

The voice just fell.

"Buzz!"

Hear only the sound of a uniform bowstring trembling.

Suddenly, hundreds of heavy arrows flashed with cold light, shooting fiercely towards the place occupied by the fierce soldiers at the head of the city, and the speed was as fast as rainbow light.

Seeing this, some of the fierce soldiers rushed to the city gate like crazy to dodge, and some jumped directly from the city.

The rest is directly pierced.

The side of the Acropolis is designed to be unobstructed and covered with heavy arrows, so there is no place to hide.

In one wave, the murderous soldiers were emptied.

The Yin soldiers defending the city immediately launched a counterattack, compressing the murderous soldiers and resuming the occupation.

"They should not be gathered together, but should rush into the city and mingle with the Yin soldiers defending the city, so as to avoid being covered by heavy crossbows."

Lu Ningxiang commented, and said: "Looking at their situation, they are no longer able to attack, and it will be dangerous if they don't retreat." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the rear gate of the acropolis opened, and thousands of cavalry turned into a torrent and poured out of the city gate, about to outflank the charge and counterattack.

I raised my eyebrows, so I could judge the situation accurately.

But after thinking about it for a while, I understood that Lu Ningxiang was once a high-level general of the Ember Army, and it was normal for him to be proficient in military affairs.

The fierce soldiers detected the movement of the defenders, understood that the momentum had gone, and immediately sounded the gong to withdraw their troops, and at the same time sent hundreds of cavalry to cover it.

And the morale of the fierce soldiers on the city suddenly collapsed, and they jumped off the city head to retreat, and they withdrew after more than a dozen breaths.

Seeing this, Lu Ningxiang said, "Let's go, intercept and kill the three murderers, and take advantage of the chaos to get in." ”

I nodded, good timing.

……

Wonderful!
