Episode 28 The Battle of Xuancheng (1)

Xuancheng, the strategic town of Liang County, the three counties in the south of Guiguo. As a strategic place where the three counties meet with the central and western regions of Guiguo, since the invasion of the Vietnamese army, it has become a necessary place for people from the west to flee to the southern region, and tens of thousands www.biquge.info of people come to this city almost every day, and flee to the southern region that has not yet been touched by the demons of the Vietnamese army.

Many of the lucky ones quickly left the city by various means, but many more unfortunate people, for various reasons, did not have time to move, and had to stay in the city for a while, waiting for the opportunity to relocate, and for several months, the total population of the city reached nearly two million people, because of the continuous gathering of refugees.

The gathering of a large number of mortals was unintentionally an extremely tempting target for the Vietnamese army and the mysterious forces behind it. Now, a terrible catastrophe is preparing to befall the city, and death has not yet come, but the shadow has long since fallen over the city.

Outside the city, 4,000 Xiuzhen soldiers of the Vietnamese army lined up in a neat formation and were preparing to launch an attack on Xuancheng. The Vietnamese soldiers were all gearing up, their faces full of greed, lewdness, and a desire to kill. Thinking of the commander's order to allow them to plunder the city for three days after breaking the city, the Vietnamese soldiers were all excited and eager to enter the city immediately.

On the city wall, Zhang Tiande, the commander of the army of the Family Alliance, looked worriedly at the Vietnamese army formation waiting outside the city, anxious and uneasy. Three months earlier, it was he who had led the coalition army to repel the attack of 2,000 Vietnamese troops at a terrible cost, barely holding the city. But they also paid the heavy price of hundreds of casualties among Xiuzhen soldiers and hundreds of thousands of mortal soldiers, while the Vietnamese army was only repulsed and did not receive a real blow.

Unexpectedly, just three months later, the Vietnamese army made a comeback again, and the number was as much as double that of the last time. The number of the alliance's Xiuzhen army was originally small, and its combat effectiveness was even worse than that of the Vietnamese army, and this time, with the hundreds of scattered cultivators who defected from the west during this time, plus the remnants of the defeated generals, there were only more than 1,500 people when they were fully counted. Most of these people are ordinary monks underground, and many of them don't even know how to fight, but only master some superficial fighting skills, although they are still very strong compared to ordinary soldiers, they are definitely not as strong as the Yue soldiers with strong combat effectiveness. Moreover, the weapons used by the army of the World Alliance are extremely rudimentary, and a few people are not even equipped with the most basic weapons, and can only use a few simple attack skills to fight.

In addition to these more than 1,500 Xiuzhen soldiers, there was also an ordinary army composed of 500,000 mortals in Xuancheng. Although there were a large number of people, Zhang Tiande knew that these mortal armies were just lambs to be slaughtered in front of the Xiuzhen army. It is impossible for mortals to rely on ordinary weapons to deal with cultivators, and there is little threat to the Vietnamese army.

Heavy sorrow pressed on Zhang Tiande, this was a battle without any chance of winning, a battle to the death, and a battle that he could not avoid. Once the city is captured, not only will the gates of the three counties be opened, but the people of the entire three counties will fall into the hands of the brutal Vietnamese army. The terrifying rumors of the Vietnamese army's frenzied massacre of mortals in the western region have long spread throughout the entire Gui country, and the tragic scenes of countless massacres have long imprinted the horror of the Vietnamese army in the hearts of ordinary Gui mortals, making all the soldiers of the World Alliance have a trace of fear of the Vietnamese army.

But Zhang Tiande also understands that he must not back down. In order to protect the safety of his clan and the people of the three counties, he had already made up his mind to fight to the death, even if he was killed to the last person, he would not surrender to the Vietnamese army.

However, he was not without hope at all, a few days ago, the high-level of the World Clan Alliance secretly sent an envoy to Xiaoyu County in the east of Guiguo, who was his nephew Zhang Ying. Zhang Ying's task is to send a rescue letter to Xiaoyu County on behalf of the World Clan Alliance. If everything goes well, Xiaoyu County rescuers will soon arrive in the city.

Although the victory of the Fan army over the Vietnamese army has long been spread throughout the Gui country, Zhang Tiande still has some doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Fan army, after all, the fierceness of the Vietnamese army has brought him too deep an impression. He couldn't understand that the mortal army had only been rising for half a year, and it was shocking that he could have such a reputation, which really made his heart full of doubts.

When he was anxious, suddenly there were strange horn sounds from the Vietnamese army positions outside the city. The buzzing sound came into Zhang Tiande's ears, and he suddenly felt an inexplicable fear and irritability. Zhang Tiande was taken aback, and hurriedly used his mana to desperately force out the foreign mana that came into his ears along with the sound.

"The Voice of the Succubus!"

The name of a spell flashed through Zhang Tiande's mind. In fact, the sound of the horn issued by the Vietnamese army is a strange sonic spell, which is specially used to attack low-level cultivators and mortals on a large scale on the battlefield, which can make people feel inexplicable fear, unease, and even hallucinations, and is a large-scale tactic that undermines morale.
