Chapter 91: The Wall Falls
Liu Ping is still charging forward with all his might, but the speed is not as fast as before.
Countless Persian soldiers ran past Liu Ping howling, and a few would slash at Liu Ping when they passed him, while most of them did not care about him at all.
Looking at the third siege crossbow that was only twenty meters away from him, Liu Ping frowned and didn't know what to do, at this moment, he was like facing a herd of wild horses galloping with thousands of horses, every step forward was so difficult, countless Persians were frantically rushing against his shield, and countless javelins and long knives tried to leave a mark on his body.
Liu Ping was not worried about the safety behind him, these Persians' charge towards the middle gate would not be fruitful, there was not only a city wall, but also hundreds of Spartan warriors guarding it, in a short time, the Persians would definitely not be able to attack that wall, although it was only five meters high.
As for the wall on the east side of the middle gate, there is no need to worry, although the wall is not too thick, it is ten meters high, and the Persians cannot climb it without a siege ladder.
However, the reality is cruel, and Liu Ping's beautiful ideas are soon shattered.
The two Persian catapults that were like decorations before suddenly projected two stones at the wall, and the two stones flew over with a roar, flew over Liu Ping's head, and smashed heavily into his rear.
Seeing this scene, Liu Ping's face couldn't help but change, and he immediately turned around and went to the middle gate to kill.
The city wall at the Zhongmen Gorge, due to the angle problem, the catapults located outside the west gate of the hot spring pass could not attack it at all, but the wall on the east side of the middle gate is different, it just stands on the road of the hot spring pass, facing the two catapults, and it is very easy to destroy.
The catapult did not fire stones before, because the Persian army could not attack there at all, and the army was stopped by Liu Ping and Wang Dahai halfway, so no one thought of using it to smash the wall.
Now that Wang Dahai had retreated because of his injuries, Liu Ping tried to destroy the siege crossbow again, and had no time to stop the Persian army, resulting in a large number of Persian troops killing the wall, and after they found that the wall was too high for the soldiers to climb at all, they immediately ordered the catapult to fire stones in an attempt to destroy the wall blocking the way.
The city wall at the middle gate canyon is guarded, no one can think of it in a short period of time, it doesn't matter, since it can't be captured for the time being, then break the east gate first, so this is also a credit! For so many days, the war had not progressed, and His Majesty the Emperor of Persia had long been impatient.
Once Liu Ping runs, his speed is much faster than that of the Persian soldiers, and at this time, he is chasing their butts and slashing, and he is replaced by the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and killing the Persian soldiers at this moment is like killing a chicken, and everywhere he passes, there are all stumps and broken arms that are broken in two.
Two stone balls the size of a bull's head fell from the sky with a roar, one stone smashed into the cliff, smashed countless broken stones and then bounced into the sea, and the other fell into the crowd outside the Zhongmen Canyon, instantly smashing more than a dozen Persian soldiers into meat sauce, this stone fell to the ground and bounced a few times, and finally smashed a hole in the wall.
The nearby Persian soldiers cheered, and then they all tried to burrow into the hole.
Seeing this, Liu Ping couldn't help but be very anxious, and the speed under his feet immediately increased by three points, and he was even more anxious and couldn't care about slashing and killing the Persian soldiers on the road.
Since the wall was built, everyone thought that it was safe and that there was no need to waste manpower to defend it, so everyone withdrew from outside the east gate to the outside of the canyon at the middle gate, that is, there was no one to guard the wall now.
No one dares to guarantee that if the Persian soldiers are allowed to pass there, in the eyes of the main god, the hot spring pass will be breached, and if so, the reincarnation team will die a little too wrongly.
A sharp whistling sound flew through the sky, it was the sound of the giant crossbow of the siege crossbow piercing the air, Liu Ping raised his eyes strangely while running, I don't know where it is going to shoot, isn't the only target it can shoot is itself, if it doesn't shoot itself, is it going to hit birds?
Naturally, the battering crossbow can't shoot birds, and its target is the same as the trebuchet, which is the same wall!
A wall more than three meters wide and ten meters high must be unstable if it is made of only stones and mud, especially when it is only more than two feet thick, and it can be pushed down without being pushed down.
But now this wall was not only hit hard by a stone bullet, was shaken out of countless cracks, but also smashed a big hole at the foot of the wall, which was originally only more than three meters wide, and at the moment there were only about two meters left, and the whole wall couldn't help but crumble.
If it had not been for the action of external forces, it might have been able to hold out for a while, but the Persians did not intend to wait for it to disintegrate naturally, so the siege crossbow fired another bolt at it.
Although the giant crossbow is huge, if it is just a single crossbow arrow, it should not be able to do much damage to this wall, but this world is full of all kinds of coincidences, so the result is completely different.
Just as the giant crossbow was about to hit the wall, a shield smashed into the wall, right next to the hole where the bolt landed.
As a result, the one-meter-wide hole became two meters wide.
As a result, the wall is still ten meters high, but only a little more than one meter wide remains at the foot of the wall, and it can no longer stand on the hot spring gate.
As a result, the Persian soldiers standing densely under the wall fell into great bad luck, and were not only smashed half to death, but also buried alive by them.
The dust that rose to the sky instantly filled the surroundings, and he couldn't see his fingers.
In this case, the Persians naturally had to stop the charge, and could not see anything, but did not rush into the sea blindly. The soldiers who were still besieging the city before could only temporarily stop the siege, and at this moment they not only felt that it was difficult to breathe, but even their eyes could only be half-squinted, like a blind man, what to do if they cut their own people.
Liu Ping took advantage of this time to kill it, the Persians didn't dare to move, he didn't have any scruples, anyway, there was no one of his own around, he could kill him, and as long as he walked against the cliff, he would definitely not lose his footing and fall into the sea.
So, after the dust finally dissipated, all the Persian soldiers discovered a terrifying reality, almost half of the originally dense companions had died, and the terrifying killing god was actually by his side, and he was harvesting the lives of the rest at a terrifying speed.
Liu Ping has always wondered how these Persians could be so brave and fearless of death!
They are not brainless undead like zombies, nor are they iron lumps like robots that only obey orders, they are living people, living people with thoughts and feelings.
How could they not be afraid after being killed so many by themselves?
Liu Ping remembered very well that they had been killed by the Spartan warriors on the first day of the attack, and they had no fighting spirit, and even their commander could only withdraw his troops in the end, feeling that they could no longer continue to fight.
Since they will be afraid on the first day, why are they not afraid now, this makes no sense, he and Wang Dahai have killed more people in the past few days than all the Spartans combined, these soldiers are not afraid at all now, but they have been rushing up to death without stopping, and they have never seen a single person who retreated and escaped.
Although Liu Ping couldn't figure out how the Persian commander did this, he didn't intend to stop the killing.
Since killing 110,000 people will not make you afraid, then I will kill 100,000 or 200,000 people until you dare not charge again.
The catapult still threw one or two boulders from time to time, but the results were nothing, and many of their own people were stoned to death.
The last siege crossbow was still shooting, and every once in a while, it would shoot a giant crossbow coldly, but under Liu Ping's deliberate vigilance, no crossbow arrow could hurt a single of his Han hairs.
The Persians were still attacking frantically, and they began to mix some cavalry into the attacking troops, and these elite cavalry put great pressure on Liu Ping, and each time one rushed out of the countless crowds, Liu Ping had to deal with it with all his strength in order not to let him break through his own defense.
The stones thrown by catapults, the giant crossbows shot by siege crossbows, and the cavalry that jumped out from time to time all made Liu Ping very hard to deal with, not only the internal force was seriously consumed, but it was also a great burden on his spirit.
But at this time, he could only face it alone, and the Spartans could not help at all, and once they formed a formation and ran out of the middle gate wall to defend, they would immediately become live targets for catapults and siege crossbows.
Time passed minute by minute, Liu Ping didn't know how long he had killed, nor how many people he had killed today, he only knew that he had to persevere, until Wang Dahai recovered from his injuries and could replace him.
There are still two days left before the task issued by the main god, the minimum requirement of guarding the hot spring pass for at least seven days, and these two days must be persevered no matter what, otherwise it will be the fate of all being wiped out.
The sea of zombies, which is even more terrifying than these soldiers, has escaped alive by itself!
The army of robots, which are countless times more numerous than these soldiers, have been wiped out by themselves!
Liu Ping persisted hard, and when he killed one Persian soldier after another, he kept secretly cheering himself up in his heart.
The fiery red sun slowly streaked across the sky, unoblivious to the bloody carnage that had taken place on the land, and finally slowly fell into the mountains to the west.
As soon as the sun disappeared, the moon began to take over its work, shining a pale glow on the people of the world.
Compared to the day, Liu Ping at night is more like a demon.
At this time, he was already soaked, as if he had been washed by the rain of blood, except for his teeth, even his eyes were red.
The shield in the left hand has been changed three times, and the flat dragon knife in the right hand has finally made a gap, although these gaps are few and small.
has been able to persist until now, and even Liu Ping himself thinks it is a miracle.
The Persians were finally frightened and did not dare to rush up again.
This is normal!
Anyone should be scared when faced with a demon standing on a mountain of corpses piled up with corpses!
No one knows how many people died, but just look at this mountain, look at this mountain that is so high, so steep, and it is a little difficult to climb up, and think about it with your ass, you can know how many people have died in total!
So many people were actually killed by him alone!
Everyone knows what will happen when they go up, and no one will doubt this, so no one dares to rush up again!
No matter how good the merit is, no matter how much reward there is, then you have to have a life to get it.
No matter how harsh the military law is, no matter how harsh the commander is, it is useless at this moment, and no soldier dares to charge.
If there is hope, anyone dares to fight hard!
But once there is no hope, who wants to fight hard?!
