Chapter Fifty-Six: The Fall of the Dao Palace City

The night was dark.

There is no moon in the sky, only a few scattered stars.

Xiangyang County is located at the junction of the north and south, and it is quite cold in this cold autumn, and the north wind is bleak, blowing yellow leaves.

The city was quiet, but the soldiers who kept vigil were still in good spirits. The watchtowers around the castle are lit up in the daylight.

City Lord Zhou Yi was already known for his rigorous actions, and he had just betrayed Sanhe, so he naturally did not dare to slack off.

"Enemy attack!" the long cry of Diao Dou pierced the silence of the night sky, and the herald shouted loudly, the sound echoing through the valley.

Zhou Yi Huo Ran got up in his clothes, or he didn't sleep at all.

"Who is the enemy?" Zhou Yi asked in a long voice.

"The enemy general is wearing a red demon mask, and his bravery is unmatched, and his soldiers are all wearing red armor, and the number is about 1,000 people, all of whom are soldiers...... The main entrance is under onslaught. The herald reported loudly.

"It seems to be the Jing Yi cavalry in the Shenxiao Army. The raid came in a hurry, but Zhou Yi did not seem flustered, and continued to ask, "How is the situation?"

"The offensive is fierce, but our soldiers have been engaged in battle in an orderly manner, and it is expected that the garrison will not be a problem. The herald continued.

"Really?" Zhou Yi groaned slightly, and then quickly swept towards the front door.

Soldiers in red armor were attacking the narrow main entrance.

The cavalry in the northern steppes and the western desert region were not good at foot combat, and specialized in horse fighting, and once dismounted, their combat effectiveness would drop sharply.

However, most of the cavalry in the Central Plains region were also engaged in foot combat, and the Red Ghost cavalry in the Iyi Valley was even more famous for being excellent at cavalry and foot combat.

The terrain of the Jiangling area is complex, and the water is vertical and horizontal, but it is also the hinterland of the vast Jianghan Plain. The Jing Yi cavalry was adept at charging in groups in open areas, and was also good at fighting on foot in rugged mountains or rivers, and even had the ability to siege cities.

Dressed in light armor, they are athletic and swift, but they are often able to avoid the blows of powerful arrows and falling rocks. The soldiers in the rear exchanged their weapons for bows and arrows and fired at the city soldiers to assist the soldiers in the siege.

One of the generals was extremely brave, wearing a blood-colored demon mask. The red flames in his palms erupted out, burning the crossbow arrows with the thickness of his arms to ashes, and all the guards of the palace city were provoked, either killed or wounded.

However, the formation of the city has also been activated in full force, and the spirit crystal is burning in the array, radiating energy. The gates of the city glowed brightly, resisting the onslaught of I's warriors.

The blood-colored tide lapped against the reef, but the reef remained motionless in the tide.

"The enemy did not do their best. Zhou Yi commented.

On the side, the deputy city lord was stunned and asked, "Didn't do your best?" But I heard that Jing Zhisheng is brave and unstrategic, and this attack can be regarded as rapid......

Zhou Yi nodded: "Jing Zhisheng is known for his martial spirits, and it is right to be brave and unscrupulous." But don't forget, the commander of the enemy army is Long Aotian, the lord of the sky. ”

"Jing Zhisheng can come to attack Dao Miyagi, he must have received orders from Long Aotian, and he will also resolutely implement the battle plan formulated by Long Aotian. ”

"Soldier Iiya is known for his bravery, and if he goes all out, he shouldn't do it. ”

He quickly made a judgment: "The city gate is just a feint, hurry up and let the master who can control the magic weapon fly into the air and observe the situation of the cliffs around the city......"

The deputy city lord said: "Does the city lord mean that the enemy is using the main attack as a cover and intends to descend from the cliff and carry out a night attack?"

Zhou Yi said: "Not bad. ”

The order was passed down quickly, and after a short time, someone reported: "There are traces of enemy troops behind the cliff." ”

"Sure enough!" Zhou Yi said immediately: "The reserve troops are quickly ambushed at the bottom of the cliff, on guard, to defend against the enemy's sneak attack, and there must be no slackness." ”

The trumpet blows vigorously, and its sound is loud. All the city's soldiers have been mobilized and ready to fight.

Zhou Yi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Long Aotian actually planned to attack Dao Miyagi at night.

But he was already good at garrisoning, once Long Aotian's night attack failed, the Shenxiao army would inevitably suffer heavy losses, and its morale would also be seriously damaged, and the victory against the Shentang army would be very small. When the Divine Hall is defeated, the county land given to him by Su Mengzhen will be able to be implemented.

Just as Zhou Yi's eyes flickered, looking forward to a bright future in the future, a sharp exclamation pierced the silence in the city.

Zhou Yi turned his head to look, only to see several fires rising into the sky in the courtyard of the house.

"How...... What's going on......" Zhou Yi said incredulously.

Amid the screams and screams of the women, a group of menacing soldiers swooped down in the direction of the city gate.

The leader was dressed in a butler's costume, with an angry face, a human head in his hand, and two hanging from his waist, and his clothes were stained with human blood, looking very hideous.

Zhou Yi could see clearly, one of them was his beloved concubine, and the other two were his daughter and son-in-law.

"Steward Chen...... You ......" Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and said: "You actually rebelled against ......"

Steward Chen laughed wildly: "Rebellion? You shameful traitor is embarrassed to say! Not everyone is willing to follow you to betray Sanhe! Traitor Zhou Yi, today is your death!"

Zhou Yi shouted angrily: "Damn...... Everyone, take down this rebel who has committed rebellion for me!"

He waved his hand suddenly, his eyes moved, and the deputy city lord led his soldiers to storm towards Steward Chen.

And at this moment, the direction of the main entrance.

Jing Zhisheng said coldly: "Everything is as the young master expected. ”

The young master in his mouth is, of course, not the young master of Sanhe, Li Xun, but the new master of Shenxiao, Long Zhanye. Jing Zhisheng, as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Shenxiao, still calls Long Aotian, who has just ascended the throne, as the young master, and has the element of relying on the old and selling the old, but it also shows his special status in the Shenxiao Dao.

On the side, Li Xun nodded and said, "We are absolutely sure." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Zongsheng on the side, and saw Zhao Zongsheng holding a dragonfly cutting spear, his eyes full of murderous energy.

Jing Zhisheng waved his hand resolutely: "Onslaught...... Start now!"

He took the lead and rushed to the head of the city, but just one person turned into a river of blood, and it was like a sea of fire!

Jing Zhisheng sealed the seal in his hand, and the flames exploded in all directions, and the angry flames tore a huge gap in the city wall directly.

"You...... I'll kill you!" a tall young man shouted, swinging out a wave of rolling thunder with one palm, but he pounced on Jing Zhisheng with ten sharp soldiers.

He is Zhou Yi's oldest son-in-law, known for his courage and decisiveness, and has the cultivation of the Nine Heavens of Zhenye.

Now he relies on the formation to counterattack Jing Zhisheng, and he is outnumbered by the crowd, thinking that he can fight no matter what.

Jing Zhisheng glanced at him coldly, and said lightly: "It's too weak." ”

Then the young man felt that he had fallen into the Hell of Senro, and his whole body was cold, and his movement was stagnant.

Jing Zhisheng ignored the ten sharp pawns, and a burst of flame burst out from his palm, striking the young man in the chest.

The young man screamed and was burned directly into a mass of charcoal, and then burned like a meteor, and exploded with a bang, and the flying fire burned the ten sharp soldiers to death or injury!

Li Xun's hand was agitated with the wind sword, and he killed it with Jing Zhisheng, slashing two people in a row, and praised it in his mouth: "I heard that Chigui Jing Yi has the courage of ghosts and gods, and when I see it today, it really lives up to its name." ”

Jing Zhisheng calmly accepted Li Xun's praise, and couldn't see what his expression was under the mask of the red ghost.

And Zhao Zongsheng also followed Li Xun and launched the Gundam Battle Armor with all his might, and the huge Battle Armor crashed into the light curtain of the city wall, tearing the power of the formation out of a huge gap.

The huge body of the Gundam armor crashed against the walls, and everywhere it passed, the flesh and blood splattered into blood and mud.

One by one, the soldiers jumped like monkey apes, jumped over the trench, and flew like lightning with their hooks, and entered over the wall.

The Dao Miyagi Castle guards at the head of the castle were harvested by long knives, and blood flowed all over the ground, like mowing grass.

Although there are many city soldiers, most of them are militiamen, and in the face of the attack of pure soldiers, once they lose the protection of the city walls and formations, they will be as fragile as paper.

Like a whirlwind of flames, Jing Naosheng led the Ii warriors into the city.

At this time, Steward Chen and others, who had set fire to the city and mutinied, were gradually difficult to resist under the siege.

But the exclamations that the city had been broken made Zhou Yi's expression change in an instant!

Zhou Yi's face was as white as paper, and he knew that he was dead.

Zhou Yi, who had just taken refuge in the Divine Hall, must be suspicious. Jing Zhisheng and others feinted to attack the front, but they did not do their best, which made him suspect that the opposite side was going to climb the cliff and attack, and then divided the troops to pretend to climb the cliff, inducing Zhou Yi to disperse his troops to guard, and in the night, it was really difficult to see how many people were in the team behind the cliff.

And the other party must have already made contact with Steward Chen, and Steward Chen launched at this time, which not only disturbed the hearts of the people in the city, but also restrained some of the city soldiers, making the main gate weakly defended. Then the Jingyi warriors relied on their excellent siege ability to directly break through the main gate!

This interlocking calculation, dripping and leaking, grasps the time, place and people's hearts to the fullest. In the face of such a wise man, Zhou Yi could only be crushed to death.

Zhou Yi knew that betraying Sanhe was the most wrong decision he had made in his life, and he had no chance to remedy it.

The deputy city lord rushed to Jing Zhisheng with a frightened face, and fell to his knees with a pop: "I...... I surrender ......"

The city was in chaos, losing the protection of the city walls and formations, and the guards of the city were terrified, and some people continued to defect and join Steward Chen's side.

"As far as I know, you are Zhou Yi's cousin. Jing Zhisheng's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.

"This ......" the deputy city lord's body trembled.

"Die. Jing Zhisheng swung out a palm, and the flames erupted, burning the deputy city lord to ashes.

Instead of making the city soldiers resist desperately, Jing Naosheng's killing caused them to completely collapse and rush into the air.

Li Xun harnessed the Huifeng Sword, swept into the air, and his voice was clear: "Those who surrender will not die!"

Gradually, the city soldiers gave up resistance completely, and one by one they threw down their weapons and walked into the formation of the Jingyi soldiers.

Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and fled quickly to the backyard.

There was a secret passage that led to the outside of the city.

But Zhao Zongsheng had already spotted him.

The Gundam battle armor flew like a fly, and the dragonfly cutting spear burst out with a dazzling electric light, which slammed into the back of Zhou Yi's heart.

Exposing his back in front of the enemy proved that Zhou Yi had completely lost his cool in a panic.

So he lost his last chance to live.

Before he could say his last words, Zhou Yi's body exploded in despair, blood gushed out, and his head rolled to the ground.
