In the Huanhua Wetland, the six people of Dongfang Longfeng looked at the Shadow Guards who were beaten and embarrassed and joked: "Ladies and gentlemen, Lord Shadow Guard, why are you so miserable by a willow tree, isn't it a cultivation method of yours, I heard that there is a method of refining the body, which is to use the human body as an artifact to temper it thousands of times, haha." ”
The other five also laughed, listening to the other party's mocking words, the captain of the Shadow Guard only felt that an incomparable evil fire burned his reason in an instant, pointed at the other party's six people, and roared, "Kill them!" ”
The remaining shadow guards were already holding back a fire, and when they heard this, they didn't think much about it at all, and rushed towards the other party with red eyes, and the captain directly slashed towards Dongfang Longfeng's waist, and the knife body was covered with a thick layer of blazing white halo.
The corners of Dongfang Longfeng's mouth curled up with a touch of cold arc, a sword stabbed forward, and he met it suddenly, when there was a crisp sound, the swords collided, and neither of them took any advantage, and then, as if they had made an appointment, the left hand slapped out with a palm, hitting each other's chest, with a muffled sound, the palms collided in the air, a circle of invisible air waves were discharged, and the bodies of the two fell backwards at the same time.
The two shadow guards found a woman in a green dress who looked sixteen or seventeen years old, and the two of them were extremely ruthless, and the cooperation between attack and defense was also quite skillful, the purpose was obvious, that is, to take down this woman as quickly as possible.
In the face of the attack of the two, the woman did not panic at all, and when the two came to the front of her, she reached out with her left hand and grabbed the wrist of one of them, and a small round shield in her right hand just blocked the knife from the other.
The man on the left saw the woman's hand buckle towards his wrist, and suddenly twisted his wrist, his arm sank slightly, turned his fist into a claw, and grabbed the woman's wrist from the bottom to the top.
Shadow Guard was startled when he saw this, judging from the true yuan power released by the other party, it was obvious that he was at least two small levels higher than himself, if he fought hard, he would definitely suffer a big loss, and his arm sank at the moment, and he quickly withdrew his move, and at the same time, his other hand turned into a palm knife and cut towards the woman's elbow.
The shadow guard on the right also exerted his force at the same time, and the broadsword violently pushed the shield inward, he knew that the woman must definitely resist his broadsword, otherwise, once the shield was pressed close to him, then his broadsword could be slashed horizontally, so that the woman would be extremely uncomfortable even if she was not seriously injured; And if she goes hard with herself, then the defense on the other side will inevitably be weakened, so that her teammates can find better opportunities.
His idea was indeed good, however, the next moment, the woman did something he never imagined, the shield did not harden with him, but retreated with his strength, only a moment to stick to his body, at the same time, a diameter of about two feet suddenly appeared in his left hand eight-edged plum blossom bright silver hammer, for the left shadow guard attack did not dodge, the body slightly right, a hammer up, smashed into his face.
Bang, poof, two muffled sounds sounded at the same time, the first was the sound of the palm knife cutting into the woman's elbow, however, the shadow guard on the right was surprised that the woman's arm that was supposed to be cut off was as good as it was, as if the previous palm knife was not cut on her arm, and the back sound was the sound of the eight-edged plum blossom bright silver hammer smashing into the man's jaw, and suddenly the great head turned into a blooming blood-red flower!
The Shadow Guard on the right couldn't figure out why, but the movement of his hand didn't stop, and the moment the woman's shield was close to him, his broadsword slashed violently to the right, and the blade brought a series of sparks on the shield, and slashed at her right arm before the woman could react.
However, at this moment, the Shadow Guard was stunned, he did not have the feeling of the blade cutting through the flesh, but it seemed to be scratched on some kind of metal or leather, some soft, but extremely tough, not only did his blade fail to cut it, but also was unloaded by it Most of the power, the remaining power is probably not enough to tickle others, no wonder the previous palm knife did no harm to others at all.
Shadow Guard's stay brought him big trouble, but the woman in the green dress seized this opportunity, twisted her waist, and smashed the hammer with her left hand horizontally, the target was his head, the speed was so fast, it was impossible for Shadow Guard to move his body to dodge, but as a battle-hardened warrior, he immediately responded, his body fell backwards, and made a posture of an iron bridge, narrowly avoiding the bombardment of the eight-sided plum blossom bright silver hammer, and then, his feet kicked on the ground, In the posture of the iron bridge, he withdrew from the distance of five or six feet, out of the woman's attack range.
How could the woman let go of such an opportunity, she followed with a stride, and smashed down with a hammer in her left hand, Shadow Guard was startled, and lay down on the ground with a drop of strength, followed by a roll on the spot, and once again avoided the blow, while the woman's hammer slammed into the ground, stirring up dust and fallen leaves.
At this moment, a scream came from another place, and a shadow guard was slapped in the chest, and his body suddenly flew upside down, breaking the three willow trees behind him, and the person fell to the ground, I am afraid that he will not survive; In another battlefield, two shadow guards were besieging a young man, and the three of them were fighting very fiercely, however, suddenly a figure flashed behind a weaker shadow guard, and the dagger stabbed directly into the back of his neck, and as soon as he flipped over the area, a head flew up, and at the same time, losing the containment of one person, the stronger shadow guard was also seized by the young man and killed on the spot.
The battle between the captain and Dongfang Longfeng is also at an all-round disadvantage, originally the cultivation of the two is about the same, but the talent and experience of the Shadow Guard Captain in combat are obviously weaker than Dongfang Longfeng, and he has been in distress several times, all of which have survived at the cost of injury, however, he is becoming more and more difficult, not to mention attacking, and now even the defense is a little difficult, I am afraid that he will be slashed by the sword in the last three or five rounds.
The captain was in a hurry, seeing that his people had been almost killed, and it was impossible to protect them, so he roared violently, and burst out with all his strength to block the sword stabbed by the other party, however, he was also slapped by a palm that followed, but the captain flew out upside down with the help of this force, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out in the air, and a sleeve arrow was thrown out, blocking the pace of Dongfang Longfeng's pursuit, and then he turned around and ran away regardless of his injuries, He turned a deaf ear to the cries for help from his own teammates behind, and disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.
"Hehe, Shadow Guard's ability to escape is really extraordinary, but there seems to be something wrong in the direction of escape." Dongfang Longfeng said with a playful smile.
••••••
Under Dingfeng City, the sixty-four hanging immortal arrays were running, and the sixty-four people instantly seemed to be a whole, blocking this small piece of space, Long Tianyue rushed towards his previous opponent again, the spear pointed forward, and the strong golden mangs were swallowed on the tip of the spear, and the whole person had an indomitable momentum.
Seeing this, the old man snorted coldly, and the big knife in his hand was also covered with a layer of sea blue light, just when the spear was about to reach his body, he suddenly deflected, dodging a stab of the spear, and then the back of the knife went out, blocking the opponent's next volley, and with a stroke of the wrist, the blade was facing the direction of Long Tianyue, and as soon as his body moved, the big knife slashed towards Long Tianyue's hands with the body of the gun.
Long Tianyue snorted coldly, let go of the spear with both hands, and slapped the spear with his left hand on the barrel of the gun, and the spear rotated with the opponent's broadsword as the axis, and struck at the old man, and Long Tianyue also followed the spear at the same time, and forced the old man towards the old man along the rotation of the spear.
The castration of the old man's big knife sliding forward remained unchanged, and his body also rushed forward at the same speed in the direction of the rotation of the gun, staggering with Long Tianyue in the middle of the way, and the two of them were staggered in the moment, but the free hand was also staggered with each other for dozens of moves, but no one could help anyone, and in the end, Long Tianyue took back his spear, but he exchanged a position with the old man.
There was a muffled sound not far away, followed by the sound of a mouthful of blood, Long Tianyue turned his head to look, his eyes were suddenly full of anger, and he shouted: "General Gao!" ”
A tall and thin man wearing the general's armor was smashed in the chest by a gray-haired old man with a hammer, a large blurred piece of flesh and blood had appeared on his chest, his eyes were even more rapidly scattered, and his body was also falling, it seemed that he couldn't survive, Long Tianyue was so angry that he was trembling all over, this was already the fifth strong man in the Nai He Realm who they had died in battle, and the others were also being comprehensively suppressed, not only did the other party not lose a single casualty, but also fought more and more fiercely, and the more spirited he became, at this moment, a loud shout came from the opposite side:" Mind your own business! ”
The old man's big knife shone with a strong light, pulled up an afterimage and slashed towards Long Tianyue, Long Tianyue was startled, secretly blamed himself for being distracted, he didn't dare to slack off, and the spear also shone with a strong golden light, and he met it blatantly, and the two fell into a bitter battle again.
The battlefield on the east wall of Dingfeng City is not so fierce, the army responsible for the attack here is only 200,000, although the pace of the siege is not too fast, but after such a long time, there are 50,000 or 60,000 casualties, at this moment, a merchant soldier shouted: "It's not good, the reinforcements of the Linghua army are coming, everyone be careful!" ”
The merchant commander looked in the direction the soldier was pointing, and saw a large army rushing towards him like a flood of black pressure, and it only took two or three breaths to clearly see that the other side was all cavalry, and it was still in a charging formation.
The commander immediately ordered the war drums to stop, followed by the sound of several long horns, and the soldiers who were besieging the city instantly gave up their attack on the city walls, quickly retreated, and quickly retreated to a safe distance, where at least they would not suffer in vain from the blows from the walls.
Looking at the cavalry that charged, suddenly the commander played a series of flags, the sound of booming footsteps sounded, more than 100,000 troops quickly adjusted, 10,000 hoplites who had not moved before stepped forward, and laid down a phalanx, and then, the tower shields were lined up, forming a shield wall, and the pikemen were mixed in, and the spears pierced out and turned the shield wall into a nail board, just before the Linghua army arrived, the preliminary defensive formation had been formed!
Seeing this, the commander of the Ling Hua army smiled coldly, and when he was still three miles away from the enemy's formation, he suddenly took the reins, and the war horse instantly turned and galloped towards the direction of the south city wall, as if he didn't even care about the merchant army on the east city wall.
Seeing this scene, the commander of the merchant army was also a little dazed, and he didn't figure out what the situation was for a while, but after all, he could be regarded as a battlefield general, and he quickly reacted and roared: "Bastard, we were fooled, they were going to raid General Meng on the southern city wall at this time, damn, if we let them pass like this, all of us will have to be subjected to military law, hurry, chase me!" ”
In an instant, the merchant army chased after the Linghua army that was gradually moving away in a hurry, this run, the entire merchant army's military formation was chaotic, first of all, their 10,000 light cavalry, quickly separated from the brigade, farther and farther away, in second place was 10,000 heavy cavalry, followed by about 100,000 light infantry, followed by 10,000 archers, and finally 10,000 heavy infantry, under the urging of the commander, they didn't care about the formation of each other, just chased forward vigorously, but it was a short period of effort, The entire merchant army was in chaos.
The corners of the Linghua Army's mouth flashed with a smile of conspiracy, deliberately slowing down the speed of the march of the team by a few points, and soon, the local light cavalry caught up, and the hysterical shouts of the merchant army commander were heard from behind: "Entangle them, entangle them at all costs!" ”
10,000 light cavalry suddenly agreed, lined up in a sharp array and stabbed at the tail of the Linghua army, just when the high-speed charge of those light cavalry was about to approach, the tail of the Linghua army suddenly separated from the middle to the two sides, as if it was a crack, and then, the merchant army who had no time to think rushed in, and then, the separated Linghua army quickly closed back and wrapped the 10,000 light cavalry dumplings.
"Resist, the brothers in front of you resist, reinforcements will arrive soon!" The commander of the merchant army shouted frantically at Zhenyuan in the back, cheering up the cavalry who had been surrounded.
The formation of the Linghua army was constantly wriggling like a big worm, and the light cavalry of the merchant army was wrapped in the center of the enemy army in this wriggling, but they were not in a hurry to completely eliminate them, but continued to increase the pressure on them.
It didn't take long for the heavy cavalry of the merchant army to arrive, and at this time, the heavy cavalry had already formed a cluster charge, and in the case of little difference in cultivation, ordinary cavalry would definitely not be able to block the cluster charge of the heavy cavalry, but Ling Huajun didn't think about blocking hard.
10,000 heavy cavalry approached, the previous scene was staged again, the Linghua army formation split from it, and the heavy cavalry who had no time to slow down rushed directly in, at this time, the heavy cavalry also felt that something was wrong, because they soon saw thousands of surrounded troops in front of them, if they rushed down at such a speed, they would first kill their own people.
Under the mouse-throwing weapon, the heavy cavalry had to slowly slow down until they converged with their light cavalry, however, at this time, they were surprised to find that they had no room to show, the heavy cavalry charge was indeed powerful, but they were not good at this kind of hand-to-hand combat, and it could even be said that it was a sandbag for people to practice boxing.
With 50,000 men besieging the opponent's 20,000 cavalry, the commander of the Linghua Army immediately commanded the remaining 150,000 cavalry to turn their horses and charge towards the 100,000 chaotic merchant light infantry that were rushing towards him a mile away, and at the same time, 10,000 archers also launched the first round of attacks.
"Oh no, we've been fooled, quick, heavy infantry array!" The commander of the merchant army reacted at once, and subconsciously shouted out, however, the next moment he was stunned, it should be that the heavy infantry had been thrown out of a distance of two or three miles by them, and now there were still heavy infantry still lined up to defend, to add insult to injury, now his own formation was in chaos under his previous busy command, and it became a luxury to prevent a decent point of trapping soldiers, and the commander could only let out an unwilling curse and roar, and there was nothing he could do to watch his troops being slaughtered by the other party!
The battle only lasted for a quarter of an hour, most of the more than 100,000 merchant troops were killed, a few fled, and the other part were captured, the commander of the cavalry made a string of flags towards the head of the east city wall and led the army to gallop towards the south city wall, the commander of the city head understood, and immediately ordered: "The first brigade and the second brigade stay to be responsible for cleaning the battlefield, and the rest of the people follow me to support the southern city wall!" ”
The battle of the southern city wall has completely entered the stage of white-knuckle warfare, under the command of Meng Sheng, the merchant army only paid the price of more than 100,000 cannon fodder to attack the city, and now, the entire city wall has been covered with dense corpses, and the soldiers have been unable to fight normally on it, so there was a strange scene on the city wall, the soldiers on both sides did not fight with each other anymore, but were throwing corpses under the city quickly, as if they were throwing sandbags in the competition.
Under the city wall, the "moat" that was not formed in the first place has now become a burial ditch, the earth has turned dark red, the corpses that are horizontal and vertical, the messy rolling wood and thunder stones, the dense arrows, the broken flags, armor and other miscellaneous objects can not be seen at a glance, along the way, there are still soldiers rushing to the city wall, burning most of the city but still burning the crash car is still tenaciously carrying out its mission, and the original solid and heavy city gate is already in tatters, a crumbling look, It is very suspicious that if it weren't for the countless soldiers behind it who were desperately resisting it with their bodies, I am afraid that it would collapse on its own without hitting the city car at all.
General Mi, whose face was covered with dust, slashed down a merchant soldier who had just wanted to jump into the city, turned back to the adjutant general beside him and asked loudly, "How many more people do we have?" ”
"General, there are not many of us left, the defenders at the head of the city are estimated to be less than 30,000, and the city gate below is probably going to be broken soon, general, when will the general's reinforcements arrive, we really can't stand it!" The adjutant said with a crying voice.
"Damn, if you can't stand it, you have to top it, the order given by the general is an hour, how long has it been now!" General Rice asked.
"It's been more than half an hour, but next, the other party's offensive is afraid that it will be more fierce, and it will be difficult for us to withstand the rest of the time, general, how could we have been so difficult when we fought with the sect master before, even in the face of the time when the Heavenly Desolate Sect and the He family joined forces, we didn't lose so much, isn't this general ••••••" The deputy general said resentfully.
"Shut up, when the sect master commanded in the past, have we ever encountered this kind of scene of battle, not to mention that we are in the case of such a big gap in military strength, not to mention, can the army of those sects be compared with the regular imperial court army, we can fight like this, it is already quite good, don't complain, dying on the battlefield is the fate of our soldiers, as long as our Linghua Sect can survive this time, the sect master will definitely use the entire Shang country to bury us!" General Mi shouted.
The adjutant general's eyes suddenly lit up with a blazing light, and he muttered: "Yes, the sect master will definitely use the entire Shang Kingdom to bury us, what is not satisfied, haha." ”
Meng Sheng also seemed to see the situation of the Ling Hua army, the attacks of the archers who rushed into the chariot ruins became more intensive, the sound of war drums became more urgent, and those soldiers who were still a little cowering suddenly suddenly launched an attack as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
The defensive circle of the Linghua army was compressed repeatedly, and many soldiers would die every second, and after only a small half of the incense burnt time, the Linghua army was compressed to a range of 100 zhang near the city gate tower, and the remaining troops also dropped sharply.
Seeing that the few remaining troops of the Linghua army were about to be annihilated by the merchant army, at this critical moment, the sound of rushing and killing came from the east city wall, and then, a large number of Linghua troops launched a fierce attack on the merchant army.
When Meng Sheng saw this scene, his pupils shrank, and a large number of reinforcements came from the city wall, which meant that the battle on the east city wall had ended, and his own side had lost, which would be quite unfavorable to himself.
However, he can be regarded as a fairly good general, and after a short period of sluggishness, he immediately ordered long-range suppression, and in the case that the long-range mismatch at the head of the city has failed, the long-range troops of the capital can be fully exerted.
The sound of the bowstring sounded, and Da Peng's arrows poured towards the Linghua army that came to reinforce them, suppressing the momentum of the reinforcements at once, however, just as the merchant army was preparing for the second salvo, Meng Sheng's eyes instantly dilated, because he saw a large number of cavalry rushing towards his main position.
In order to maintain the intensity of the siege, Meng Sheng sent most of the army out, in addition to 30,000 archers, there were only 10,000 heavy infantry, 10,000 heavy cavalry and 10,000 light cavalry around him, and the opponent's troops should be about 200,000.
Meng Sheng immediately made a decision and ordered: "Mingjin collects the troops, slowly retreats in formation, the heavy infantry steps forward, and the archers prepare!" ”
The barracks is at a distance of five hundred zhang from the rear, and if you fight and retreat, as long as you can return to the barracks, you will not be afraid of the local cavalry coming to charge the battle, however, what makes Meng Sheng feel strange is that the opposing cavalry does not seem to have the intention of rushing to attack, but only maintains the pressure on their own side.
Hearing Mingjin's voice, the besieging merchant army dropped the siege equipment and quickly retreated, and the people who had climbed the city wall were tragic, they were quickly killed by the defenders after becoming a source of water, Meng Sheng observed the situation on the battlefield, and suddenly shouted: "It's not good, we are fooled, go at full speed, go to meet our retreating troops!" ”
At the same moment when he had just given the order, the commander of the Linghua cavalry had a flash in his eyes, turned his horse's head, and shouted at the retreating siege army with his spear: "Attack!" ”
Roar~~~ The shout of killing sounded, and the 200,000 cavalry instantly turned into predatory cheetahs, charging towards those siege troops, and the retreat was not right, and the cavalry was like a nightmare for them.
"Don't panic, form a formation to resist, we'll be there soon!" Meng Sheng shouted loudly when he saw this, at this time all he had to do was to let every soldier hear his voice and ignite their hope for life, otherwise, these soldiers would all be slaughtered.
Listening to his words, many centurions and thousand-commanders had already reacted and wanted to organize their troops, however, at this time, the entire military formation was completely chaotic, and the soldiers had lost the spirit of war, no matter how they shouted, it was impossible to organize the formation in a short time.
"Ah, ah, ah~~~" A scream sounded, the cavalry had rushed into the chaotic formation, just a charge to chisel through the chaotic formation, the retreating merchant army into two sections, and then, the cavalry in the middle was like a nail firmly nailed to the place, and the cavalry on both sides was quickly outflanked, forming a semi-encircled posture for the merchant army behind, and a small part of the merchant army that was cut off in front of it was running towards their own army. How can you still have the heart to care about the enemy and friendly forces behind you?
Seeing this, Meng Sheng closed his eyes in pain, took a deep breath, and quickly received the troops who ran back before ordering him to return to the camp, he knew that those besieged troops would never come back.
"Surrender and don't kill, surrender and don't kill, surrender and don't kill!" Three shouts suddenly sounded, and the momentum gave people the illusion of swallowing mountains and rivers, which startled Meng Shengdu who was retreating quickly, and those merchant soldiers who were besieged and had completely lost their fighting spirit were instantly overwhelmed by this momentum, and they all dropped their weapons one after another, and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.
For the retreating Meng Sheng and the others, Ling Huajun did not pursue, but only escorted the surrendered troops back to the city, and there was jubilation on the city wall.
On the frontal battlefield, Long Tianyue has gradually shown defeat, what makes him frightened is that he doesn't know why, the other party is getting stronger and stronger, from the beginning of the fight to the current being completely suppressed, there is no way to fight back, but the other party is still getting stronger, what makes him feel even more helpless is that this space seems to be blocked, and he tried to escape a few times, but he couldn't do it at all.
Not far away, another scream came, Long Tianyue glanced at it, and saw that a strong man in the quasi-life and death realm on his side was killed by Gu Li's punch, although Gu Li's naked upper body showed a large bruise, and there were several obvious fist marks, but he was laughing, as if he was enjoying it very much, and the other old man of the same level who was fighting against him was suppressed to death, and he was in danger of being killed at any time.
Several other battlefields have ended the fighting, but those people of the Linghua Army have no intention of helping at all, as if they are spectators, farther away, there are constantly corpses falling, and there are few people left on their side, as for the thousands of troops on the ground, they are still surrounded by 20,000 troops, and they can't move if they want to.
"Worship your lordship, please make a move, if you don't make a move, we will all die, worship your lordship!!" Long Tianyue let out a desperate roar.
