Chapter Ninety-One: The Fire
The light of the burning torch was scattered, and a ghost flag of the other party was waved in the wind.
Looking at the uniforms on those siege soldiers, it is true that they are not owned by Nanzhao today, but they seem to have come from the Dian Kingdom one or two hundred years ago.
At the beginning of the previous dynasty, the boundary of Yaozhou was not owned by the Central Plains Dynasty, but was ruled by the tribes of the land of Yunnan and Er.
In order to fight for this place, the previous dynasty ordered an army of 100,000 to capture Yaozhou.
The soldiers and people who stuck to this place swore not to retreat, so the generals of the previous dynasty ordered the slaughter of the whole city, and the wails were all over the sky for a while, and the people were miserable.
After that, the Dian Kingdom took the initiative to retreat for hundreds of miles, and tacitly returned to the Central Plains Dynasty by default.
However, at some point, rumors of ghost soldiers began to exist in Yaozhou.
It is said that when night falls, you can hear the deafening sound of soldiers and horses in the distance.
If you look closely, you can only see a cluster of black clouds stretching forward, as if embracing thousands of troops, swords and swords and shadows, gradually disappearing into the distance.
Every night, the sound of soldiers and horses passing by can be heard outside the city.
These ancient rumors have been heard by many soldiers stationed in Yaozhou.
It's just that this was a hundred or two hundred years ago, and the royal power of the previous dynasty that slaughtered the city has also been destroyed.
Now it's just a few ghost jokes.
However, the current situation is not as rumored to be!
The soldiers at the head of Yaozhou City couldn't help but be stunned.
The so-called Yin Soldiers are an army composed of ghosts.
These ghosts are all soldiers who died tragically on the battlefield. Because the resentment does not dissipate, the soul is still trapped in the battlefield after death, maintaining the posture of fighting before death, and the killing intent does not change.
At certain moments, these Yin soldiers will appear on the battlefield before their deaths and continue to fight, just as they did when they were alive.
Looking at the figures who were shot by arrows but were still unconscious, as well as the gray and white ghosts that were rolling around the city wall, the soldiers on the city tower couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and the hands holding the weapons also trembled.
The torches on the city tower were extinguished by the gray shadow, and the originally bright city tower gradually dimmed.
The enemy army under the city wall was about to climb up the ladder, and the sound of ghosts crying and howling was overwhelming.
He Ling Jiang was lucky and shouted: "What kind of ghost soldiers!" It's just that some lonely souls and wild ghosts have been summoned, with some tricks to shake people's hearts! ”
"Don't be fooled by what you see!"
With that, as soon as she moved her hand, she threw out a few talismans and shot them towards the gray shadow on the city tower.
With a "zi" sound, several gray shadows that were about to roll towards the soldier's neck suddenly dissipated.
"Look, even these lonely ghosts have nothing to fear! Everyone, you are determined to fight, and I will deal with this! ”
Then she turned her head and shouted, "Aman, protect the torch!" ”
"Yes!" Aman immediately responded.
She followed He Lingjiang's teaching, took out the talisman from her sleeve, recited a spell in her mouth, and threw it around the torch.
With her movements, the torches that were about to be extinguished under the ghostly scroll jumped up again, looking a little brighter than before.
The city that had dimmed suddenly became bright again, reflecting the dark shadows below that wanted to take the opportunity to attack the city.
He Lingjiang threw out a talisman and went down, and the talisman lightly stuck to the forehead of the besieging soldier.
The soldier was pressed to the front of him by a talisman, and he was stunned for a moment, then he ripped it off as if nothing had happened, and continued to climb up the ladder.
He Lingjiang's eyes narrowed: "He Zheng, throw stones!" ”
When He Zheng heard this, he immediately had the internal strength of luck, picked up a huge rolling stone, and threw it towards the black shadow under the city wall.
The boulder fell from the top with a thousand powers, and the sound of the broken neck was immediately drowned out in the ghost howls that filled the surroundings with only a "click".
The enemy soldier in front of him was smashed to the ground, his head tilted, and blood suddenly burst out of his neck, and the boulder continued to press down with his body.
The soldiers behind him suddenly fell to the ground, crushed under the boulder, unable to move.
Looking down at the lights of the city tower, you can vaguely see the soldiers who fell to the ground, and they have lost their breath.
He Lingjiang lowered his head and looked at the city, and said coldly: "It's just a mortal fetus in the flesh, and there is no reason why you can't die." ”
Ding Feng's eyes on the side suddenly lit up, these people were not Yin soldiers, they were really pretending to be gods.
He immediately raised his arms and shouted: "Everyone has seen it, this so-called Yin soldier is just an ordinary soldier pretending to be an ordinary soldier!" A rolling stone can be stoned to death! ”
"Soldiers listen to the order, kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
An overwhelming shout rang out from the top of the city, sweeping away the low morale.
Seeing that He Zheng's stone smashed several enemy soldiers into silence, the soldiers defending the city were relieved and their spirits suddenly rose.
Rolling stones, sasswood, gold juice......
Countless killing weapons were all beckoned to the besieging enemy.
The other party fell down one by one, and there was no longer the terrifying aura that could not be killed before.
However, after killing one and another, and killing one group after another, the dense enemy soldiers came from the rear, stepping on the corpses of their companions and continuing to attack the city walls.
I don't know what kind of protection they have put on them, and the bow and arrow can't kill them, and if they continue like this, this wall will surely be breached by them.
Han Zheng swung his broadsword and slashed at a soldier who had climbed the city wall.
"Poof!"
The big knife slashed at him, but it left only a muffled sound, causing the man to crook himself and almost fall off the ladder.
He Lingjiang's eyes on the side condensed slightly, and he drew his sword and slashed at the man's neck.
The thin blade of the sword passed right against his neck, and the head was cut off in unison.
The round head flew out suddenly, and the man was stunned for a moment, and then his headless body fell backwards.
He Lingjiang stretched out his hand at this time and grabbed the man's body.
"He Qi Niangzi......" Han Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted, stretched out his hand and threw the body of the person to the city tower together with He Lingjiang.
Then he slashed his backhand and cut off the head of the enemy who climbed up again: "Cut the neck directly!" ”
Seeing this, the soldiers defending the city on the side also immediately aimed at the enemy's neck.
However, in this situation, the speed is much slower, and sometimes, before your sword hits the opponent's neck, you are killed by the other person's sword.
Looking at the soldiers who had spoken to her before, who lost their lives in an instant, He Lingjiang's eyes were slightly cold, and she shouted: "Stand back!" ”
Then, a few thunder talismans were thrown out of his sleeves, and the talismans exploded against the enemy troops who climbed to the city wall, lifting everyone down, and only then did he temporarily alleviate this wave of danger.
She immediately turned around, crouched down, and ripped off the clothes of the corpse that she had just dragged to the city wall.
In the black military uniform, there is armor woven of dark gray rattan, which is light but invulnerable, and the axe is difficult to hurt.
He Ling Jiang leaned close to the armor and sniffed lightly, and a strong smell of oil rushed into his nose.
Really! It is an armor woven by oil bubbles of rattan in the mountains.
Han Zheng also obviously discovered the mystery, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and ordered loudly: "All the generals listen to the order and burn the enemy army!" ”
