Chapter 267 Can't be prevented
Rows of ladders were erected high, and the Jin soldiers swarmed up, and the soldiers who had not had time to climb up stood under the city, firing arrows at the defenders on the city, suppressing the opponent's counterattack, and providing cover for their own brothers who climbed the ladders.
The Jin army under the city shot the wooden army on the city at the same time, the Jin army who climbed the ladder was also knocked down by the wooden army from time to time, at the critical moment, the city head was often thrown down with the oil pot with the fire oil, and the Jin soldiers who were affected were all skin and flesh, and their appearance was cruel to see.
Under the perfect city defense system and the stubborn resistance of the defenders, the Jin army launched two all-out fierce attacks, but both failed at the critical moment and were killed and retreated by the defenders.
The battle was not long, the corpses under the city walls had been piled up, the corpses on the city were everywhere, the casualties on both sides were not small, of course, the Jin army, as the main attacking side, suffered much greater losses than the defenders.
After being smashed down again, he found Jin Cheng from the crowd and yelled at him: "Regroup my forces and launch another attack!"
Since Jin Cheng joined the army, he has never experienced such a tense and tragic battle, his head is somewhat wooden, and he was completely sobered up by Zhang Bufan's roar, and responded urgently, commanding the whole army, and launching another all-army attack.
Up to now, the casualties of the Jin army have been very large, but the soldiers are becoming more and more courageous, as the companions around them fall one by one, people are completely red-eyed, completely abandon life and death, and charge desperately.
The third onslaught of the Jin army was even more ferocious and sharp than the previous two.
Zhang Bufan and Jin Cheng personally went into battle, attracting the main attention of the wooden army, and on the other side, Peng Cheng, the commander of the second corps in the army, led more than 1,000 elite soldiers under his command to attack from the weaker places of the wooden army, under the condition of raining arrows and rolling logs and stones. Rush up the ladder to the top of the city.
After ascending to the top of the city, Peng Cheng immediately drew his sword, slashed and stabbed, and killed and injured more than a dozen wooden soldiers in one go. Engage in hand-to-hand combat with the wooden army in the city.
Seeing that this side was broken through by the Jin army, three wooden generals immediately rushed over and fought with Peng Cheng.
Peng Cheng, as the commander of the army directly under him, is superb in martial arts, brave and good at fighting, and is also a famous general in the army. He withstood the three wooden generals alone, but instead of rushing, he rushed to attack again and again, taking several steps back.
Several of the generals seemed to be a formidable enemy. Coincidentally, the underworld martial arts skills were released, and the air currents in the sky all flew towards Peng Cheng alone.
The other party was menacing, but Peng Cheng was not afraid, gathered the dark qi in his body, and released a whirlwind of knives.
For a while, there seemed to be a tornado rolling up on the city, and the skills of the two sides collided together, and the energy flew everywhere. The force spread, and the soldiers of the two sides around were forced out of the city by the air pressure that exploded in an instant. They screamed and fell to the bottom of the city.
After a hard move, Peng Cheng had several more blood holes on his body that were injured by the air flow and blood wounds that were scratched by the air flow, and the three wooden generals on the opposite side were not much better, one of them had his throat cut open by the air flow and was killed on the spot, and the other two were also covered in blood. The openings vary in size, but they are extremely deep, reaching to the bone everywhere.
Both sides were hit hard, but Peng Cheng could still grit his teeth and persevere, standing up and not falling. But the remaining two generals had staggered back, leaning against the stacks of arrows, gasping for breath, and not even having the strength to lift their weapons.
Peng Cheng stared at his blood-red eyes, endured the pain of the wound on his body, and walked towards the two wooden generals step by step with his sword, ready to kill the two directly.
But at this moment, a cyan figure suddenly rushed over, and at the same time, a cold light pierced Peng Cheng's neck.
Peng Cheng's heart trembled, and he hurriedly pulled out to dodge, only to hear the sound of sand, and the bright long sword almost swept against his neck.
"What kind of ability is it to sneak attack in secret?!" Peng Cheng roared angrily, swung his sword and swept back, slashing at the enemy's waist.
The man retreated and jumped three meters away.
It was only at this time that Peng Cheng saw the other party's appearance clearly.
The person who came was dressed in green clothes, with cloth shoes under his feet, and he looked like he was in his early forties.
The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi slowly raised his long sword, and then an arrow stepped in front of Peng Cheng, raising his sword and stabbing it. The person who came was not good, Peng Cheng did not dare to be careless, and carefully fought with him.
It's true that the knight and the military general are both underworld warriors, but the spiritual martial arts skills that both sides are proficient in are completely different, the generals' skills are mostly based on killing opponents in a large area, while the skills of knights are mostly used to fight alone, if the two sides are one-on-one heads-up, the ranger has a certain advantage.
Peng Cheng was already injured first, and the person who came was an unusually powerful knight, the two sides fought together, on the field, Peng Cheng was very passive, defended more, attacked less, and was often rushed by the other party, but Peng Cheng's foundation was deep, and it was unlikely that the other party would defeat him in a short time.
The two fought fiercely together, a large number of wooden troops were blocked behind and could not rush through, and the Jin army under the city had taken the opportunity to rush to the head of the city with more than 100 people, and if this continued, the southern city would become precarious.
The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was anxious, but there was nothing he could do about Peng Cheng in front of him, and in the end he bit his teeth, so he could only use his trump card to fight quickly.
Suddenly, he took out several swords in a row, these swords, all of them were fast and ruthless, and Peng Cheng withdrew a few steps, but after a few swords, his strength was exhausted, Peng Cheng seized the opportunity and launched a counterattack, the long sword was deployed, flying up and down, and the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi took a few steps back.
But when he stepped back, he didn't pay attention to the corpse behind him, tripped over it, lost his balance, fell on his back, and sat on the ground.
Seeing this, Peng Cheng's heart was overjoyed, and he secretly shouted God help me! Taking advantage of the moment the other party fell to the ground, the sword in his hand also stabbed the other party's chest.
Just when people thought that the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was in danger, the latter's body deviated slightly, and the long sword rubbed a series of sparks on the armor on his side, and then stabbed the bricks on the ground hard.
The blow missed, Peng Cheng still wanted to put away the sword and stab again, the hand that the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi put on his waist suddenly stretched out, Peng Cheng didn't even see what he was holding in his hand clearly, and a lightning light had hit his forehead.
Peng Cheng only felt a heart-piercing pain in his head, and then couldn't help but howl.
At this time, looking at Peng Cheng again, his appearance was terrifying to the extreme, the fire snake was born from his forehead, and in the blink of an eye, it was all over his body, and the whole person became a fire man, and his whole body was full of raging fire, and the heart-rending scream made people feel creepy when they heard it.
In less than half a minute, Peng Cheng had already turned his clothes into ashes, leaving only the burned red steel armor scattered to the ground, and at the same time, a red feather fluttered in the air.
"Yes...... It's the Bloody Scales—"
I don't know who screamed, and then, there was a sound of inhalation around, it turned out that this was a famous sect among the knights, the unique secret weapon of the Holy Venerable Hall, the blood scales!
At this time, several more chivalrous people squeezed out of the crowd, rushed to the close of the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi, and arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be the predecessor of the Holy Zun Hall, disrespectful and disrespectful!"
Before he could finish speaking, he bounced up from the ground, walked quickly to the approach of the blood scales, glared at the knight who was about to pick up feathers, and said coldly: "If you don't want to be reduced to ashes like the gold thief, don't touch it." As he spoke, he stooped down to pick up the feather and carefully packed it into a strangely shaped copper box.
At this time, people saw clearly that he was wearing a white glove on his hand, and because the color was too close to the armor on his body, if he didn't distinguish it carefully, he really couldn't see it.
A single feather can have such great power, and the speed is so fast that it can break through the armor and make people unguardable.
Being frightened by him, the chivalrous man retreated again and again.
The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi snorted coldly, raised his eyes to look at the stunned Jin soldier not far away, pointed the sword in his hand forward, and said, "Friends, don't be stunned here, follow me to kill the enemy!"
"Kill—"
The people came back to their senses and followed the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi to kill the Jin army who had climbed to the top of the city. (To be continued......)
