Chapter 173: Bloody Battle

Liao Zhenghao couldn't sit still.

He had seen the blood sacrifice of the snake people, but it was never as moving as it is today.

The red clouds tumbled and undulated, enveloping the upper part of the altar, and then spreading out in all directions like a wave.

At the foot of the dirt slope, thousands of snake people lined up in a radial formation, prostrating to the center and bowing to the ground.

Three miles away, there was not a single sound.

But Liao Zhenghao could see that the morale of the snake people had been raised to the limit.

Soon, real changes swept over the side of Gimhae Castle.

The defenders lowered their eyes to see a thin red mist rising from the trench.

This is the remnant blood that has been extracted.

After a few breaths, the corpses of the snake people stacked in the city also reacted.

The already coagulated plasma dried up at an accelerated pace, smoking, and rising into the air like a wisp of silk at the opening of the wound.

The fishy smell spreads.

The red cloud crossed the city wall and headed north, arriving at the Serpent Altar.

The shrill whistling of red scales crashed against the walls.

The snake people began to reorganize their army.

At the same time, Hong Fan woke up from his inner vision.

The branches of the Dragon Soul Tree on the spiritual platform seemed to be pointing - its sense was similar to that of the Xiao brothers when he first saw it, but it was even more strange and colossal.

He walked out of the bungalow and walked dozens of steps out of the street, opposite the city wall.

There was a slightly rotting smell in the air, and red wisps floated above the city.

The shouts of the junior officers came and went.

The successive military tents were lifted, and the soldiers assembled in turn according to the army and team, and poured onto the city trail.

All this is in harmony with the sound of war drums from afar, like the pulse of Jinhai City that gradually grows stronger after waking up.

Hong Fan jumped up the city wall in a few steps.

Three miles away, he saw the snake people also adjusting their formation.

On both sides of the wall, braziers were lit.

Then more torches were brought up to the city by the soldiers, and they lit up as if it were daylight.

Dense flames can strengthen the courage of the night and confuse the thermal vision of the snake people.

A quarter of the hour passed (4:15).

At the darkest hour before dawn, the snake people launched an all-out attack.

The unfolded surface is nearly four miles wide, covering the entire northern wall of Gimhae City.

Hong Fu ran up the city along the trail.

When he came out of the camp, he was sleepy-eyed, and when he went to the city, he saw a lot of reflective eyes in the black light a hundred meters away, and suddenly woke up ten points.

The drums of war were beating non-stop, and the more they were beaten, the more urgent they became.

The battle flag shook from the tower in the light of the fire.

Hongfu heard a faint sound of a lute, which was the strings of the bed crossbow.

But the night was too dark, and his cultivation was not enough, and he couldn't see the trajectory and results of the crossbow arrows clearly.

The snake man walked a hundred paces away and began to change formation.

In the middle of each section of the wall, the wolf's tooth slap and the yaksha slap that had caused great damage were avoided.

Arrows rain down on the city, like a tide.

The underside of the city is like a retrograde reef.

The trenches were easily waded through.

There is no prelude to the fight, and the start is the climax.

Hong Fu held a file axe and cut off the claws that climbed the female wall.

The old pawn on the right did the same, but was bitten on the shoulder by the sudden burst of snake man over the wall and dragged down the wall.

Hong Ping's eyes turned red.

He speared his spear and plunged into the sternum of the other snake man.

The blade of the gun twisted, creaking against the bones.

The snake man was about to exhaust himself, but a palm-length poisonous snake popped out from his armpit and bit Hong Ping on the cheek.

The pain was as light as a mosquito bite and was not worth mentioning.

Hong Ping kicked down the corpse with one arm and pulled out a gun, tore off the little snake hanging on the skin and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it until his lips and teeth were bleeding in a few clicks......

More and more snakemen poured onto the walls.

Tea kung fu, the line of defense gradually uneven.

The red square flag was first raised on the main city tower, and soon spread throughout the city walls.

The means of Jinhai pressing the platform were used.

The hollow square cabinet, which is more than one meter high, is made of wrought copper, and is topped by a pump tube raised horizontally by four pipes.

The tip of the pump is cone-shaped and is placed above the brazier and roasted until it is red-hot.

Every time the fireman pulls the piston, several liters of black-brown viscous liquid fly six or seven feet away, spontaneously combusting in the air.

This thing Hong Fan recognized, it was called a fierce fire oil tank, and what was shot out was crude oil.

With the help of the fire dragons that protruded from each horse's face wall to the left and right, the situation was greatly eased.

The snake man responded quickly.

On the side of the broken tooth, the giant snake more than 20 meters long was ordered to press forward.

This is a large marsh beast domesticated by the snake people, whose strength far exceeds that of the warriors, and its role on the battlefield is several times greater.

The giant snake approached with a powerful crossbow and arrow, followed by dozens of second-sacrifice snake people.

Each of them has at least a high-level combat power.

Hongcheng is high in the city tower and looks at it coldly.

Engaging in a large area and then gathering elites to break through the surface is the usual tactic of the snake people.

"The first formation, let the Li family go."

He shouted.

As soon as the military order was issued, a herald flew down the city wall.

Soon, the only four remaining members of the Li family led three teams of Wudang to ride along the horse road to the city, all wearing double armor and holding heavy blunt weapons such as golden gourd hammers.

The thunder burst out, even duffling the shouts of killing.

The snake man's breakthrough is blocked.

In the rear formation, Broken Tooth lifted a one-man-tall odd-shaped sword and shield and joined the battlefield.

On the side of Jinhai, the sympathy of the heavens and men who had been waiting for a long time also moved accordingly.

Thirty meters away from the high wall, Broken Tooth jumped up, intending to go up to the city in one fell swoop.

In the midst of the flight, Hongwu's fire cloud palm arrived first in the air, consuming its momentum.

Shi Yuanwei urged the gods to fly, flying in the air at a speed that was better than that of the opponent, and stabbing the sword guerrilla.

The third one to arrive was Liao Zhenghao.

The power of the cliff's palm blasted out from afar, blasting the broken teeth back to the city in one fell swoop.

Affected by this delay, Gongsun Shi and Chi Chayuan, who came from the east and west, arrived one after another.

The five celestial beings are sympathetic to the wall, their eyes are piercing, and they are each poised for strength.

Broken Tooth looked up and suddenly felt tricky.

At this time, Red Scale sent a second elite.

It also uses the giant snake to lead the cover and attack the weak city section.

Hong Fan fought on the front line and immediately noticed the change.

The wind and sand gather, and the climbing exterior wall turns into sand.

He leaped out of the sea, and walked around the horse's wall, and was the first to reach the next part of the city.

The snake elite is just going to the city.

"Get out of the way of the front!"

Hong Fan shouted and accelerated.

Behind him, the sand stream rolled upside down in the air, turning into a large shield on his left arm.

With a backhand shield strike, the snake man in front was thrown out of the female wall.

The exploding sand shield turned into sand arrows and swept away, blowing away countless flesh scales.

The elite reserves on Gimhae's side have also arrived.

Dozens of heavily armored warriors pushed forward like a wall, taking advantage of the snake man's unstable foothold and greatly compressing his line.

The sound of the majestic wind suddenly sounded, blowing the fire and deflecting it.

Hong Fan followed the sound and saw a giant snake with a diameter of more than one meter and a width winding its body and easily going up to the city, crushing a large piece of stone bricks.

The snake's head fell, and a Chi family in the middle rode bravely.

Flesh and bone shards splashed.

The blood mist shook up, and the wind went north.

Then it was scattered by the sand flow that rose from the backlash of the city.

Hong Fan condensed the sand armor, and walked forward only a few steps, and his body was already two feet taller.

There was a roar, and the seven-hundred-pound giant hammer stirred the atmosphere and slammed into the side of the giant snake's skull.

Suddenly, everyone felt a shock under their feet.

The head of the snake suddenly deflected, and the blood rushed out from under the scales like a knife, splashing apart.

The fresh smell of blood hit the end of Hong Fan's nose, adding to the murderous intent.

He picked up his hammer and was about to pursue, but was hit in the back by a giant tail swept under the cover of the city walls.

The sand armor burst open, and the muffled sound pressed the ears.

Hong Fan smashed the wooden frame slapped by the wolf's teeth, flew more than ten meters away, and rolled down under the city tower.

He tried to get up, but was stuck in his chest by a mouthful of blood, and he couldn't muster his strength.
