Chapter 026
As soon as I clapped my hands, I heard the sound of the fire oil tank bursting, the sound of the fire oil exploding and burning, the screams of countless people, and the whirring of the wind.
The five thousand men outside collapsed once more, leaving behind a trail of flames.
Before I could cheer, there was a sudden panicked commotion from the eastern wall.
Bestur immediately jumped to his feet: "Oops, the sound is blowing west!" He immediately pointed to a few people in the square: "You, you, you, take your men and follow me to the east!"
When I reached the eastern wall, there were already more than a dozen ladders erected, and the iron hooks at one end were rigidly cleaved at the head of the city, and the Kujits were like ants clinging to them, holding their shields and rushing upward, and there was no way to push them down.
Like an orangutan, Bestur leaps and flakes from battlement, each probe firing an arrow that inevitably enters the body of the Kugit beneath the shield from an absolutely unexpected angle. At this time, Besture showed his superb skills.
When I arrived, a Kugit jumped from the ladder onto the wall, and with a swipe of his hand, a scimitar slashed a black-flagged Kugit warrior to the ground. As soon as I pulled out the long sword at my waist, I waved it casually, and there was a faint dragon groan, and a layer of dazzling golden light appeared from the sword, and at the same time, a strong force passed from the hilt of the sword into my body, which made me feel refreshed.
The Kujiit subconsciously raised his shield to his chest, but he was cut into two ends like tofu in the sword light. Blood splattered everywhere, and his body fell like a bundle of straw down the city.
I shuddered, just now it was the realm of qi attack, I haven't done it for twenty years of practice, but I achieved it in one stroke?
The old man who taught me to practice martial arts once explained to me the three realms of martial arts, one is to kill the enemy with the body, called the qi power realm, and people in this realm are constantly exercising their bodies to make them strong, and use their developed muscles to pinch the opponent to death when fighting against others.
But there is always a limit to the human body, it is impossible to lift thousands of kilograms of stones, it is impossible to hold your breath underwater for an hour.
Therefore, there is a qi attack realm, turning the strength of the whole body into a mysterious and mysterious qi, this kind of qi is intangible and substantial, but it can make a leap in people's strength, and those who cultivate qi can easily hit five hundred kilograms of strength, cut through the stubborn stone of watermelon with a sword, and even surpass the limit of the human body in various harsh environments. This kind of person will burst out with light when he is lucky, for example, when I saw Nabal throwing a giant axe before, a layer of golden light appeared all over his body.
Such a person, but in terms of strength, has surpassed most samurai.
However, the Qi Attack Realm is only a transition, and when the Qi in the body is cultivated enough to be purified and condensed, the Qi will change, from the formless and insubstantial Qi to the tangible and qualitative Gang. This is the Gang Qi Realm.
Gang can be seen, touched, and even launched to attack the enemy, unlike the effect that qi can only attach to the body to increase strength. People who have Gang, if they are skilled enough, can even form a terrifying method similar to magic, such as a martial art in the legendary mysterious East, they can use Gang to blow the enemy's head in the air, it is said that it is called the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending or the Palm of the Gods.
The Far East is a mysterious existence, it is said that people there can cultivate Gang, this method also has a strange name, called double cultivation ** or something.
Uh, I'm distracted...... In other words, I know my own strength, I'm afraid it's only the Qi Realm at most, a perverted existence like Nabal, maybe I can practice the Qi Strike Realm, this is a matter of chance, but after I get this sword, a sword in my hand is such a powerful Qi Strike Realm, this must be the credit of the sword.
I immediately made up my mind that I couldn't return the sword to Illya even if I was killed. Then I jumped on the battlements, and with two strokes, two ladders snapped.
Bestul shouted, "Good!" He then jumped up to the highest battlement, and in full view of the crowd, he bent his bow and arrow, and the arrow struck the trumpeter three hundred meters away, like a shooting star.
The sound of the horn stopped as soon as possible, and the Kugit on the ladder fell into confusion, taking advantage of this opportunity, the black flag Kugit warriors on the city wall attacked sharply, and drove the other party back with three strikes and two blows. The ladders that hung on the battlements were all burned to black char. As night fell, the Kugits had to stop their offensive after launching at least ten attacks throughout the afternoon, leaving behind nearly 10,000 corpses. And Fort Dista, which had been baptized by fire for a whole day, was already in danger at this time. Of the four thousand Black Flag Kugit warriors in the castle, less than a thousand can now stand up.
Blood, flowing down the walls, seeped into every crevice.
The entire castle was dyed red by the flesh and blood of both sides, and it seemed that grabbing a handful of dirt could catch blood.
Jamila gathered the Black Flag Kugit women in the castle and taught them simple first aid techniques to bandage the wounded soldiers who had been withdrawn from the city. The boys of the Black Flag Kugit hastily bandaged their wounds and went up to the city wall with their bows. Often, once they go, they never come back.
War is brutal.
Bestur had already believed in me completely, and he even demarcated the defensive line of the eastern front walls and gave me full responsibility.
But I have less than 300 wounded soldiers.
At night, the Kugit people in the city began to make fires for cooking, and the tents were connected to each other, and the lights stretched far into the night. Later in the evening, from outside the city came a distant and mournful singing:
The sun returns to the steppe at night
When the moon arrives, it will set back in the prairie during the day
When the snow in the snow-capped mountains melts, it falls back into the grassland
Eagles that fly away will also fall back into the grassland when they grow up
but the soul of a warrior will fly into the sky
Like tomorrow's sun flying into the sky
Like the moon flying into the sky tonight
Like an old eagle flying into the sky
This is a tune by the Kugit to summon the spirits of the dead warriors. Black Flag Kujit is also a member of Kujitt, and many people can't help but hum along when they hear this tune. The mournful song is like a melodious and fluttering soul.
Suddenly, a hurried trumpet came, tearing the mournful atmosphere apart, and then countless torches lit up outside the city, countless people shouted at the same time, and countless war drums beat at the same time.
When I saw the face of a Black Flag Kugit warrior, the face turned white in an instant. The Kujits, they actually interrupted the song of the conjuring spirits and started a night battle!
Interrupting the singing of the conjuring, not only the souls of the fallen warriors of the Black Flag Kugit could not ascend to heaven, but even the souls of the more than 10,000 soldiers they died could only wander in the world! This is a great taboo for the Kugit people, and even the enemies of Kugit will respect this when they fight with them, and if they do not interrupt their conjuring at night, they actually destroy it themselves!
Immediately, from the western wall, Bestur's furious roar was heard: "All attention, all of you, take your place, kill those Kugit brutes!"
The Black Flag Kugit warriors let out a howl like wounded beasts.
Outside the city wall, a series of boiling and burning fire lines suddenly rose, like crazy fire dragons, rushing towards the city wall steadily.
Catapults! They must have been supported, and even catapults appeared!
I yelled: "The other party has a catapult, pay attention to concealment!" But I knew in my heart that this Distal Fort might not be able to be saved.
It seems that this time, it was really a mistake.
That was my last thought, and the next moment, a fiery dragon slammed into the battlements, and the whole wall trembled as rubble and fireballs flew and the entire wall trembled.
Then came the crash, as if the end of the world, littered with rubble, fireballs, and severed limbs flying into the air.
In such a frenzied bombardment, the walls of Fort Dista collapsed with a thud, and smoke and dust rose for nine days.
The first Kugit soldier rushed in through the gap, the light of the sword reflecting the moonlight, incomparably brighter.
At this moment, all the people went crazy.
A scorching red whirlwind flew out from the gap, and the whirlwind passed, and the intruding Kugit soldiers seemed to have entered a meat grinder, and blood splattered all over the sky.
The dryer stood in the gap, and the night breeze on the prairie whipped his mantle and hunted.
The dryer laughed: "Happy, you can make a lot of money now!" Laughing, the iron spine point steel gun in his hand suddenly appeared a layer of light red light, like flames, and like blood water, his spear vibrate, and countless guns were lit in an instant, and a huge red whirlwind slowly formed at the tip of the gun.
"Scarlet Dragon Burning Sky Spear?
As soon as the whirlwind took shape, the dryer connected a few times in the core of the whirlwind, and the whirlwind immediately broke away from the tip of the gun, rolled forward, and spread. Anyone who came into contact with the whirlwind seemed to be crushed in an instant by countless blades, and then, the flesh and blood splattered in the air, and when it was smoked by the warm wind, all the water was immediately drained, and it condensed into a dry reddish-brown object.
My eyes widened in an instant, this move has been out of the Qi Attack Realm, and I have seen the first hint of the Gang Qi Realm, this dryer, I can't see it, it is so fierce!
In another gap, a moonlit silver light suddenly rose into the sky. The moonlight was mixed with some blood mist, which looked mysterious and hideous. I glanced from afar, and saw Illya, dressed in silver and white armor, holding the sword of war in both hands, wrapped in the milky white moonlight, which seemed to have a tangible substance, constantly rotating around her, and everyone who came into contact with it was twisted into a blood mist without exception.
The Kugit hesitated. Illya slowly raised the sword of war, all the moonlight condensed into the wide sword body in an instant, and with a wave of her hand, a slightly bloody moonlight greatsword flew directly from the blade, plowing a bloody gully in the crowd of Kugit that was surging like a tide.
I couldn't speak, this was a standard Gang Qi Realm attack! Thinking of the many slanders he had made to Illya before, he suddenly felt a cool breath rushing up from behind.
The dryer seemed to have been hit head-on, and the momentum was completely gone, and the body was about to fall down when it shook.
I said, "What's wrong, you're hurt?"
The dryer said: "It's too hi just now, just magnify it directly, and now it's no magic." ”
I said, "You deserve it." ”
The dryer said, "That Illya must be no better than me, and when she saw me magnifying, she followed her, and this time she must have lost her strength." ”
I said, "No, people are still alive and well." ”
The dryer immediately turned its head to take a look, and Illya was still in the gap, but the milky white moonlight on her body was a little lighter, but with a wave of her hand, the moonlight was still flying out.
The dryer said, "It's not scientific, did she buy some big blue?"
I said, "I don't know, but people are indeed much more powerful than you, you see how beautiful their posture is, look at you again, the name of Da Jue is so ugly, why don't you call it microwave drying?"
The dryer thought for a moment and said, "Your suggestion is very good, I will consider developing this trick." ”
At this time, another group of Kugit rushed up, and I dropped the dryer to meet them, and between the swords, the golden light shone, and the first few were split in half by my hand.
However, there are still too many people, and they have not practiced Gang Qi, even if they reach the Qi Attack Realm, they will be piled to death in such a sea of people.
I don't remember how many people I killed, or how many wounds I put on my body. There were fewer and fewer comrades, and in the end, only me, Dryer, Illya, Bestur, and some of the wounded Black Flag Kugit soldiers were left in the square. We blocked the gates of the lord's castle and formed the last line of defense.
Inside, there are all the women and children of Jamila and Black Flag Kujit.
There were no Black Flag Kugit warriors on the walls of Fort Dista, and in the strict sense of the word, Fort Distata had fallen, and the current street fighting was nothing more than a dying struggle.
I panted and split one of the javelins that flew at me, but one of the Black Flag soldiers next to me was shot in the head with another javelin, splattering my brain and blood. The two stab wounds on his back began to hurt violently again.
The dryer consumed most of the true qi in that move, and now it was impossible for him to use that move close to the Gang Qi realm, and he could only attach the pale red true qi to the iron spine point steel spear, but even so, his spear also had incredible power, and no shield, skin shield, wooden shield, knight's shield, or iron shield, could be the power of his shot.
Every time you see blood, you will never return empty!
And Illya, at this time, all the throwing guns in her skin had been shot, and I saw with my own eyes that those throwing guns with the true qi of the moonlight flew a full two hundred meters away, and shot flat into the chest of the opposing general.
What a horrible throw.
But this throw is trivial compared to her swordsmanship.
After lending me the sword, Illya swung the war sword on her back, but it was not a common two-handed sword on the market, it could be seen that it was also a superb sword, and the sword was engraved with many mysterious lines, and every time she swung it, these mysterious lines would echo with the silver true qi on Illya's body, emitting a flashing silver light. The blade of the sword was close to the gauntlet with hideous jagged teeth, and I saw her use this great sword to cut through the scale armor of a Khan Khan's guard as easily as cutting a cake.
King Graves' niece, the equipment is of course the best of the best.
Bestur's arrows were also gone, and at the moment he held in his hands two heavy scimitars that he had snatched from nowhere, the edges of which were curled, but they did not prevent him from smashing open the enemy's helmets with them.
But we are well aware that Fort Distata has been lost, and that perhaps tomorrow when the sun rises, we will all be reduced to a pile of flesh, and there will not even be a single person to collect the corpses.
Perhaps from tomorrow onwards, Black Flag Kugit will become a historical term.
A feeling called despair hangs over us.
At this time, Illya, who had always been calm and calm, suddenly roared, and the moonlight-like true qi was in full bloom for a while, and she actually managed to split out four sword gangs.
Is this a complete despair, a desperate effort?
I was stunned for a moment, and Illya suddenly shouted, "Yes, we are saved, we are saved!" and she pointed outside, and I seemed to hear the sound of rolling horses' hooves rushing here.
