Chapter 61: The Siege
Many of the fleeing civilians were tripped and trampled to death on the spot, leaving behind an unrecognizable corpse, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
Li Chunfeng was heartbroken when he saw this situation, and he really felt that his life was like a mustard under the war, but he could only stand at the head of the city and watch helplessly.
There are so many people, although Li Chunfeng is a little powerless, but he still wants to make a move, this situation can save one person is one person, but he was dragged by the master, Wen Zhong reminded: "Spring breeze can't mess around, don't you notice, these people are mixed with many people who practice martial arts with strong breaths, you just go down like this, not only can you not save people, but put your own life into it." ”
After such a reminder, Li Chunfeng really found that there were many sneaky people in the crowd, although they covered up their own breath, but if they looked closely, they could still find the difference with ordinary people, so many accidents just now were also made behind the scenes, the purpose was to make the people soft-hearted and open the city gate, or to disturb the morale of the army, but General Guo led the army strictly, and what happened just now did cause a commotion in the army, and it quickly calmed down.
At this moment, the dust suddenly rose outside the city wall, and a team of iron horsemen appeared in everyone's field of vision, numbering about tens of thousands, and behind the cavalry was a large number of infantry, numbering seventeen or eighty thousand, these soldiers were all made of animal skins, each holding a scimitar in his hand, and his mouth made strange sounds, like a shout, as if he was howling.
When the fleeing people saw Di Bu chasing after them, they were so frightened that they began to run back again, but when the legs ran over the horse's legs, they were caught up by Di Bu's cavalry, and many people were killed in front of them.
For these Di people, these original people of the Zhongzhou Empire are the cheap people slaughtered by them, in addition to being eaten or killed, they are not even as good as livestock, and killing them is equivalent to removing a scourge for God.
Seeing this situation, Wen Zhong immediately ordered the disciples to go down to save people, and instructed them to save a few if they could, but they must protect their own safety, and if they can't support it, they will come back, and they must not fall in love with the war.
For the disciples and those martial arts masters, they were already a little impatient, their eyes were blood-red, and they vowed to kill and save more people at the same time.
As for those Di masters who are mixed in, the martial arts masters are also very easy to distinguish, most of these people are strong, even if they hide their own breath, the murderous aura and movements cannot be hidden, and they can be recognized at a glance.
Many martial arts masters jumped off the city wall one after another, and when Li Chunfeng just wanted to act, he was pressed by his master on the shoulder and advised: "Chunfeng, you have to be careful." ”
Li Chunfeng nodded, and jumped down, while the rest of the senior brothers and sisters also followed, and when they reappeared, they had already come to the battle circle.
A Dibe soldier with a scimitar was just about to swing his knife to slash at an old man and a young man, and suddenly a young figure appeared next to the two, only to see that person suddenly waved the long sword in his hand, and the Dibe soldier was cut in two by the sword qi, and then he solved the two Dibe masters hidden among the people, and the internal force gathered on both hands, and flew under the city wall with them.
At this time, someone under the city wall was there to answer, and a hanging basket fell from the city wall, and the grandfather and grandson jumped into the basket and were pulled up.
Sitting on top of the basket, the child looked at the young man gratefully, and he suddenly opened his mouth and asked aloud, "What is your name, big brother?" ”
The young man turned his head and smiled softly, "Li Chunfeng." ”
Looking at Li Chunfeng's distant back, the child showed a look of fascination, and swore in his heart at this time that he would also practice martial arts in the future, like this big brother, and be the hero who saved the people.
Immediately Li Chunfeng rushed to the battlefield again, kept saving people and killing the enemy, and got covered with blood, this blood was not his own, but the enemy's, at this time he was like a devil crawling out of hell, and the soldiers of Dibu were terrified, and no one dared to step forward for a while.
On the battlefield, these hundreds of martial arts masters actually resisted more than 200,000 troops, they stabbed thousands of enemies, the soldiers in the distance saw this scene, and couldn't help but exclaim, especially the young man who was covered in blood, not only saved more than a hundred people, but also died in his hands The enemy is not a thousand but also eight hundred, it is really admirable, these soldiers are deeply inspired, these hundreds of people can kill Di Bu lost his armor, don't forget that there are more than 100,000 elite soldiers in the city, what are they afraid of.
Looking at the young man covered in blood in the distance, Guo Tianhua was also amazed, this kid was as frightening as a demon when facing the enemy, and he couldn't help but admire.
Wen Zhong was also very excited when he saw this scene, and came to Guo Tianhua's side in a hurry, and said in a show-off tone: "Old Guo, have you seen it, that's my newly accepted disciple, how about it." ”
Guo Tianhua couldn't stop nodding and said, "I said that you old boy, how can you be so blessed to accept such a disciple, it is really enviable." ”
Hearing Guo Tianhua's praise, Wen Zhong looked triumphant and said, "That's not it, you old boy finally said a human word." ”
Don't look at the ridicule that the two of them don't have a good word here, the more this is the case, the more it shows that the relationship between the two is not ordinary, they have known each other for twenty or thirty years, and have experienced life and death.
Guo Tianhua ignored this old and indecent family talk, and continued to stare at the situation on the battlefield.
At this moment, many black-robed people suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and judging by their appearance, they should be from the Bright Moon Sect.
Seeing that the people on the battlefield had been slaughtered, and now that there were so many Bright Moon Sect masters, those martial arts masters could no longer stay there, Wen Zhong immediately withdrew his troops.
When the martial arts masters heard the signal to withdraw their troops, they all prepared to evacuate, but those people from the Bright Moon Sect let them go so easily, and immediately blocked their way and fought with them.
The Di soldiers in the rear saw that many masters had been entangled, so they didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to advance, preparing to capture Beixiang City in one fell swoop.
The commander of Di Bu, who was standing on top of the chariot in the rear, also wanted to kill this group of martial arts masters, but they had been delayed here for too long, and they had already delayed the fighter plane, if this continues, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely be held accountable, these people can teach Mingyue to clean up, and they can rest assured that they can point to Beixiang City.
Hundreds of thousands of Dibu infantry came to Beixiang City, first set up a formation, the siege equipment has arrived, with the commander of Dibu under the order, dozens of catapults have been equipped with burning fire altars, slammed towards the city wall, nearly 10,000 archers fired thousands of arrows, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly suffered heavy losses, they could only use the shield in their hands to defend.
These shields were good for bows and arrows, but they couldn't protect against the boulders and fire altars thrown by catapults, and many soldiers were either burned or stoned to death.
The people of the city were no better, and where the boulders and the altars of fire passed, all the houses were destroyed and a great fire was alighted.
General Guo commanded the battle from the city walls, but he did not panic at all, it was just an appetizer, and then came the most intense moment.
In the distance, Li Chunfeng was blocked by a black-robed man, looking at the person's breath, martial arts should have just reached the upper three realms, he didn't dare to slack off, holding the long sword in his hand and watching the enemy's every move.
After such a long time of fighting, Li Chunfeng's internal strength has been lost a lot, presumably other masters are the same, this Mingyue is really timely, and he is not ready to start until now.
The black-robed man didn't do it directly, but talked to Li Chunfeng.
"Boy, I know your skills, you can kill a master like Hou Tianyang, you must not be an ordinary person, but after the battle just now, you should lose a lot of internal strength, if you know each other, you will obediently tie your hands and arrest, and save a lot of hardship."
Li Chunfeng didn't pay much attention to this black-robed man's, spit on the ground, and said, "Why do you Mingyue Sect people love to talk nonsense so much, master, am I the kind of person who is easy to deal with?" Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, I'll solve you in a while, I still have to go to the city to help. ”
Seeing that this kid was so oily and salty, the black-robed man didn't bother to talk nonsense, and stretched out two long iron chains from each sleeve, but there was no black mist wrapped around them, seeing this scene, Li Chunfeng immediately became alert, there must be something strange in it.
The two colleagues set off, rushing to each other at lightning speed, the speed is difficult to see with the naked eye, they fought from the ground to the sky, after dozens of rounds of fighting, there is still no winner or loser, it can be described as a chess opponent.
On the side of the city wall, after more than a dozen rounds of attacks, Di Bu began to formally attack the city, the infantry set up ladders and other siege equipment to the city wall quickly, and there were also Di Bu soldiers with battering rams to attack the city gate.
When Guo Tianhua saw the enemy attacking the city, he ordered the soldiers to put on bows and arrows, and when the enemy was about to reach the city wall, he listened to his order to shoot arrows immediately.
And inside the city gate, there are also soldiers who are ready, they have thousands of people erecting long logs against the city gate, to defend against the attack of the battering ram, and there is a general leading nearly 10,000 soldiers to wait anxiously, they don't want the city gate to be broken, in case the city gate is broken, they soldiers will block the city gate, do not let any enemy enter the city.
Seeing that the Di soldiers were getting closer and closer, Guo Tianhua immediately ordered the archers to shoot arrows, and thousands of arrows were fired on the city wall, and many enemies were killed on the spot, but this group of Di soldiers were shot to death, and their companions stepped on the corpses and continued to step forward, none of the soldiers took a step back, not that they were not afraid of death, but they could not retreat, and there were many battle teams waiting there in the rear, in case they found that someone dared to take a step back, what was waiting for them was the cold butcher's knife.
Under the fearless charge of the Dibe soldiers, they finally put the ladder and the siege equipment on the city wall.
