Chapter Seventy-Three: The Battle for the Defending of the City Begins
"Of course, there are still various possibilities before the order is issued, and we must be prepared accordingly. Chen Ze continued.
Therefore, the three of them discussed and prepared according to various possibilities, and then adopted corresponding plans according to various possibilities, in short, there was only one purpose, that is, to save their lives in this cruel battle of the sect!
In less than two days, Usumu City began to send tasks, Chen Ze and Chen Zijing and their party were arranged to a small city called Wanfeng City in the northeast, this city is actually infinitely close to a medium-sized city, but the location of the ground is not too important, a few people are still quite satisfied with going here, it seems that the pill and Yuan Jing still play a certain role.
These teams that went to Wanfeng City gathered together, Chen Ze, a martial artist with a ninth-level martial apprentice cultivation, was selected as the captain, of course, the captain was mainly responsible for the personnel of his own team, and the captain also had the protector and the chief captain, who were responsible for commanding the entire team until they arrived in Wanfeng City, and then accepted the unified management of Wanfeng City, and everyone rushed to the destination without stopping.
As we gradually approach the border of the Blood Demon Sect's forces, we can occasionally encounter enemy spies or small groups of sabotage troops, and of course, they will be eliminated by reinforcements one by one as long as they encounter.
Until it approached Wanfeng City, the team began to engage with the enemy's organized troops, but fortunately, the current large army of the Blood Ghost Sect surrounding Wanfeng City has not yet arrived, and all the troops encountered so far are the vanguard troops, because there are still some small cities north of Wanfeng City, which have just been conquered by the enemy.
In the end, the team entered Wanfeng City and successfully joined the garrison under the support of the defending troops.
Wanfeng City is a small city, but the scale is not inferior to the medium-sized city, but the geographical location is more partial, so it is characterized as a small city, the city lord is surnamed Hu Mingfeng, there is a peak of the middle stage of the martial arts.
The city of Wanfeng City is famous for producing golden silk, this silk is extremely tough, it is an important material for making zuò clothing and ritual weapons, the people here are simple and simple in the city mortals and warriors live together, Wanfeng is taken from the meaning of prosperity, abundant grains, but at this moment this Wanfeng City is facing a huge crisis, a big killing is likely to be waiting for them.
The walls of Wanfeng City are being strengthened one by one, and the formation mages are testing the operation of various formations, sometimes calling for workers, sometimes beckoning to point, and some people frowning and checking the drawings, trying to find possible weaknesses.
Some of the city walls that need to be strengthened are strengthened by the reinforcement array talisman one by one at this time, and I saw that the entire city wall is full of figures who are depicting the formation pattern, and all kinds of runes are constantly flickering, and at the same time, various traps are also buried on the ground outside the city, and the atmosphere before the war is very strong.
"Brother Chen Ze, when we come back and encounter a large number of enemy troops, we will resist according to the offensive and defensive formations that have been rehearsed in advance!" Chen Zijing looked at the busy formation mages and coolies on the city wall and whispered to Chen Ze.
"Well, everyone should be careful for a while, don't be stingy with all kinds of pills and magic weapons!" Chen Ze nodded, and at the same time solemnly reminded a few people behind him.
Chen Zijing and Chen Ze's team was assigned to the east of the city for defense, in addition to the warriors, even the young and middle-aged among the mortals were also transferred to assist in the defense, helping to transport various materials and support work, each team of fifty people, Chen Zijing's team was led by Chen Ze, and each team was arranged in groups of five to ten people.
Before the battle began, what surprised Chen Zijing was that he found two acquaintances in the team next to him, one was Li Xin'er, an elite disciple who was knocked down by himself, and the other was Wang Hufei of Lian Ti Peak!
At this time, Li Xin'er had reached the peak cultivation of the ninth layer of martial apprentices, and Wang Hufei had also reached the ninth layer of martial apprentices, although Chen Zijing and him had no dealings, they had seen each other.
Being able to see these two people in such a big battle is indeed a lot of fate, and it can be seen that Li Xin'er is a little embarrassed, Tong Guò was Chen Zijing's competition with Broadsword Peak in the ring, Li Xin'er has already understood that Chen Zijing's competition with herself and Xu Hongbo at the beginning is probably just deliberate, and the two of them are not Chen Zijing's opponents.
Chen Zijing took the initiative to say hello and said, "Senior Sister Li, Senior Brother Wang, you are also here! ”
His greeting really broke the embarrassment, Wang Hufei first returned the salute and said hello, and Li Xin'er also replied with a smile: "I'm afraid it's true that Senior Brother Chen takes care of me a lot......! You've actually reached the ninth level of martial apprentices in such a short period of time......!"
Li Xin'er immediately discovered Chen Zijing's cultivation, and looked at him in surprise, his eyes glared at the boss! Wang Hufei also stared.
Seeing this, Chen Zijing smiled modestly and said, "It's just a fluke...... By the way, how is Senior Brother Xu Hongbo and Xu?"
Li Xin'er's expression was a little gloomy after hearing this, and he said softly: "He, he has fallen in this battle......"
Chen Zijing's face also darkened after hearing this, he did not have any grudge against Xu Hongbo, Chen Zijing was still very emotional about his death, after all, he was a martial artist of a sect, and it was indeed a pity that he fell on the battlefield at such a young age......
And Wang Hufei next to him at this time, although he somewhat retained the pride of the first person of some rookie disciples, and his cultivation reached the ninth level of martial disciples like Chen Zijing, he was not too arrogant, and he was quite polite to Chen Zijing in his words.
The three of them exchanged a little, and then they each returned to the team, after all, they still have some tasks, this time is the time to hurry up and run in with the members of their own team, the war has no eyes, but they will not leave a little affection for you because they are elite disciples or personal disciples.
On the walls of Wanfeng City, the clouds of war made everyone's hearts like a stone, and they didn't know who would die after this battle, and who would have a chance to survive......
In order to speed up the arrangement of the formation in the city, many warriors also joined the camp of hard labor, this is not the time to put on the score, in order to survive, most of the warriors have put down their identities and shelves, and threw up their arms to do the work.
The next day, it seemed that even the heavens had become nervous because of this large-scale war, the air was filled with a smell of gunpowder smoke in advance, even the sky was gloomy and abnormal, the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe, and the dense warriors on the city wall were all frowning and looking into the distance with strict expressions.
I saw that in the distance outside the city, a large black shadow that could not be seen gradually appeared in the black pressure, and the rumbling sound had been heard for a long time, including the earth-shattering footsteps of the marching beasts! The rolling sound of various huge vehicles! The beating of a large number of war drums! and the marching sound of countless men and horses were mixed together!
At this time, in the north of Wanfeng City, a thin and tall man with a yin and yang face in the big tent of the Blood Ghost Sect in the wild was sitting in the middle of the middle of the military tent, this person had the strength of the peak of the middle stage of the martial artist, and next to him sat a more burly black-faced giant man, who was also a cultivator of the middle stage of the martial artist.
If in the mortal world, just looking at the appearance of a black-faced man, no one would dare to provoke him, and he was like a humanoid beast!
The black-faced man stared at the yin-yang-faced strong man with blood-red eyes, and said in a loud voice: "Lao Zhao, how many days are you going to take Wanfeng City this time? Look at the posture on the other side, it is very well prepared, don't let me wait too much, fresh human blood is my favorite!"
"Zhang Jianjun, you don't know my personality yet, this time I will definitely take Wanfeng City down within three days!" The strong man with a yin and yang face replied calmly, this person was Zhang Ba, the commander-in-chief of the Blood Ghost Sect's attack on Wanfeng City.
The black-faced man nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and the pair of iron claws on his gloves scratched each other, making a sound of tooth aching, and bursts of sparks accompanied by his cruel smiling face looked in the direction of Wanfeng City......
"Captain Chen, the enemy army has begun to attack!" Chen Zijing shouted softly at Chen Ze, only to see Chen Ze wave with one hand, all the members of his team lined up in formation, and the overall number of light warriors in the defenders in the east of the city was also thousands, not counting the civilian warriors and miscellaneous strong men who were recruited, these people could also play a lethal role in operating some weapons and thunder stones on the city wall.
"Kill !!"
As the banner of the Eastern Commander-in-Chief waved, everyone let out a heaven-shattering shout! A sky-high killing intent rolled out from this shout, and the momentum of the warrior was like a monstrous wave, pressing towards the enemy with a terrifying domineering aura, and the marching beasts in the distance were also affected and let out a panicked howl.
At this time, the enemy army also beat round after round of war drums! After hearing the sound of drums, the black-pressed figures in the distance under the city wall began to frantically attack the city wall of Wanfeng City! The sound of footsteps and drums alone made an earth-shattering rumbling sound!
The first camp at the head of the line is countless huge marching beasts! The marching beast is a kind of low-level demon beast, the huge body shape is similar to a rhinoceros, but it is countless times larger, it is a demon beast often used by marching to carry heavy objects, etc., and it is also an important weapon to impact the enemy, this kind of beast has rough skin and thick flesh, and its defense is extremely strong!
"Knock! knock!"
The earth also trembled in the approach of this giant beast, and the entire Wanfeng City seemed to tremble in this majesty, and the surrounding wind whimpered and blew the battle flag, and a strong aura of slaughter was permeated everywhere.
"Don't attack those marching beasts for a while! It's a pure waste of vitality, we want to focus on killing those enemy warriors!" Chen Zijing stood next to Chen Ze and whispered, he had gone through countless life-and-death battles, and he would not be affected much by this formation, and he could still analyze it calmly.
Chen Ze nodded after hearing this, and at the same time immediately ordered the heralds below to spread what Chen Zijing said to him around, he still trusted this little brother.
