The snowflakes seemed to light up suddenly from the pressure of the battlefield, and fell from the thick lead clouds, like white paper money thrown at a funeral.

Dong Kaitai walked through the battlefield at the head of the city with a heavy face, his thick-soled felt boots stepped on the ground, and the soles of his feet were almost stuck to the soles of his feet with blood and water every step he took, and he saw that the mutilated corpses were mixed together in different postures, and they were soon covered by a thick layer of snow, and he couldn't tell whether they were people or beasts wearing armor, and he didn't know whether those scattered things were broken hands and feet or torn intestines. Occasionally, there was a dying golden-eyed beast curled up on the ground, roaring in a deep voice in the wind and snow, Dong Kaitai raised his knife and fell, mercifully ending its pain, so that the black and red blood spurting from the neck of the golden-eyed beast melted the snow around it, but it was immediately coagulated.

The casualties of the Jin soldiers were extremely heavy, and in less than two hours of short contact with the demon army, five hundred defenders plus the number of sentry guards of about ten people, now there are only one hundred and seven people left, of which fifteen people have suffered heavy losses, basically lost their ability to move, and the others have also suffered minor injuries ranging from Cheng dù, five Du Bo Chang died two in battle, and Shen Jin also lost his right-hand man Fan Mi, this is still the result of Shen Jin letting the remnants of the cart lead the remnants to withdraw in time, otherwise I am afraid that less than half of them will survive.

Even if those demons did not fully release their demonic power for various reasons, and only relied on their own strong physique and huge strength to attack, but the human soldiers still looked so weak in front of them, not to mention that there was a huge disparity in numbers, it was clearly a miracle to be able to repel this attack of the demons, and the greatest contributors to this miracle belonged to those disciples of the Qianjia family.

Of course, the warriors of Luoyang City should be proud, most of them were temporarily recruited before the war, many of them did not even participate in fights before joining the army, even if they were not a rabble but they were far from being elite divisions, under the crazy attack of the demons, none of them fled, they were terrified but bravely fought, they showed the demons the courage and tenacity of human beings.

But after all, they were crippled in this battle, and this respite that they finally won still made Shen Jin's face sink like water, according to the experience of these two battles, he estimated in his heart that at least no less than 10,000 Dajin Red Armor warriors were needed, or they could be worthy of thousands of demon soldiers, and this was still under the premise that the other party did not use demon magic. Now he only had more than 100 tired wounded soldiers, how could he resist when the demon's next attack came? But he still expressed his gratitude to the White Ink Swordsmen who had come to the scene.

"I didn't expect you to come. Of course Shen Jin knew these White Ink Swordsmen, they had almost become the new favorite celebrities under the Great Sima Curtain, just like himself, if it weren't for the doubts about the identity of their eldest brother.

"We didn't leave, we stayed in the city, although we were very disappointed in the court, but we couldn't bear to see the people in this city suffer from swords, your people are too few, and the enemy can't protect the people. Yan Yu said lightly, he didn't feel good either, but as soon as he fought with the demon soldiers at the head of the city, he sacrificed his two junior brothers, which made his heart heavy.

Shen Jin looked around at the devastated city after the bloody battle, and sighed into a white mist on the side of his mouth: "The result is these things, Luoyang is generally lost, with our current strength, we can't stop the next attack of this kind of thing." ”

Yan Yu turned his head to look at Qian Chong: "Mr. Qian, what do you think?"

The physical consumption of the disciples of the Qianjia family is also very strict, Qianchong always can't stop panting, the iron armor wound under his waist is stained with blood, he is feeling the breath of the spirit getting farther and farther away, that is in the pursuit of the demon soldiers, before the spirit is destroyed, they are still safe for the time being.

The light of another Beidou letter lamp has been hovering over the south of the city, and the images of the four Big Dipper stars are reflected in all directions of Luoyang.

"Reinforcements will come, as long as we hold on. Qianchong is not only to encourage them, but also to cheer himself up, "This is not a killing campaign in the world, now it has evolved into a battle between humans and demons, the comrades-in-arms of the Seven Star Alliance's Demon Dao will never sit idly by, the longer we drag the demon army, the greater the certainty that the Seven Star Alliance will annihilate them all." ”

Shen Jin wanted to ask, with the current situation, how did they drag down the demon army, but the words came to their lips and swallowed it raw, they were all gods who subdued demons and subdued demons, just like the means to repel the demon army just now, they must still have a way.

"That ghostly spirit is very powerful, only unless a master like Zhenshanjun releases his demonic power, he can win, and it should be able to keep them busy for a while. Luan Qingtian smeared the wound on his arm with snow water, grinning in pain as he spoke.

Guo Qihuai held his arms with his blades and his expression was cold: "But once the spirit is destroyed, it means that the demon soldiers have released their mana, so if they attack again, it will not be as easy to resist as the first time, in fact, we can barely support it the first time." ”

"Is there a response?" Qianchong looked into the distance, but could only see the dim sky covered with haze.

"As Jiazun saw, it has been almost two hours since the first Dao of the Beidou Letter Lantern was issued, and there has been no response from any fellow Daoists. Guo Qihuai's voice was very small, he didn't want those human sergeants to hear this bad news.

Qianchong's tone was very firm: "Although there are not many demon sects in the Central Plains of Guanzhong, after all, this place is not far from Buxiu Mountain, and the Beidou Xin lights are shining for hundreds of miles, I don't believe that Mr. Xu Da of Buxiu Mountain didn't see it." ”

"And then wait for their divine soldiers to descend from the sky?" Guo Qihuai said with a sneer, "He has always looked down on us as a power sect, or does he not care about our life or death at all?"

"He will understand our call for help, I heard that in Guangliang Town, he arrived with all the disciples of the Crane Feather Sect without hesitation, and this time will not be an exception. Mr. Xu Da may be withdrawn, but he is by no means a ruthless person, and you should not say that about our alliance leader. But before the help comes, we have to help ourselves first, how are you doing?"

"The body is easy to do, take a break and eat a full meal or it can be a lot better, but the problem now is that our spiritual power is lost too much, and in a short period of time, it is difficult for us to cast spells that amplify the effect, even if the demon rampages with the flesh, we are afraid that it will not last long. ”

Qian Chong knew that what Guo Qihuai said was not wrong, he himself could feel the disordered and weakened Xuanxi aura in his body, in the current situation, an ordinary second-class demon spirit would normally use his demon power, and he might not be an opponent, let alone the army of second-class demon spirits that he was about to face.

Yan Hao seemed to see the embarrassment of the disciples of the Qianjia family, and after thinking for a moment, he mentioned yì to Shen Jin, and the words were said to Shen Jin, but the tone was also asking for Qianchong's opinion.

"Since I want to hold off these demons and buy enough time, I will withdraw from the city. ”

"Lord Yan Yi wants us to give up the city defense, and give up Luoyang City, so why do we have to fight this hard battle?" Shen Jin looked dissatisfied, and his tone was also a little excited.

"Listen to me......" Yan Hao signaled Shen Jin to calm down, "We retreated to the city, relying on the fortifications built by the general earlier to resist and delay one by one. ”

"The deep ditch and high walls are useless, what can those low earth walls do? They are demons, not human military horses, the original method will not work!"

"General Shen may not know, although my Mo family disciples have not been in the general's army in the past few months, but they have also served as a fortified people, these fortifications and barriers, my Mo family disciples have secretly added some machinery and equipment, Shicai City has been proven, it is still effective against those demons, I think, with these institutions, and the skills of the cadres, it is always possible to drag the backup to come." ”

The city head was silent for a while, and after a while, Shen Jin smiled bitterly: "It turns out that all the righteous people have already secretly helped each other, but it's ridiculous that Shen doesn't know at all, if you report me early, maybe the city's defense will not be so vulnerable." Seeing that Yan Oyster was about to explain, Shen Jin waved his hand, "It's not to blame the righteous people, Shen sighed to himself." Who doesn't know the name of the Mo family's good guard? Fang Jin's plan, I'm afraid that this is the only way to fight with the demon in the alley. At the end, he said to Qianchong: "What does Mr. Qian think?"

"With the Mo family's mechanism and our secret method of subduing demons, there is no need to fight like this, and there is room for maneuver......" Qianchong looked at the few strong men in the world who were standing at the head of the city, "There are also these warriors who break the body to help, this is the only way now." ”

The plan has been decided, Shen Jin will not delay any longer, and he will not have time to clean up the corpses at the head of the city, so he can only leave them to be buried in the wind and snow. Yan Oyster led in front of each other, the whole army hurried to the nearest fortification, just arrived at the second gate of the city to meet the remnants of the cart, Shen Jin was suddenly stunned, he saw that the three galloping horses were about to rush here, the head was Xue Yang, no food in front of his saddle to the wind and stick out his tongue, and his left and right two horses were a man and a woman, and when he looked at it, it was not the Xianbei prisoner who was imprisoned in the barracks prison?

※※※

Even if the people were loud and noisy, Zhang Xiu seemed to hear the rumbling war drums and the sound of Huo Huo's killing, and couldn't help but feel anxious, how could he let his comrades fight to the death with demons in the city, but he followed this imprisoned Luoyang order to make a living to evacuate the people?

Zhang Xiu remembered that not long after following Cheng Yifan down the city, he bumped into a group of people with pale faces and frightened behaviors, and without waiting for those people to speak, Cheng Yifan announced loudly:

The defenders are fighting bloodily, and the fathers and elders of the city cannot stay for a long time, so they will escape from Luoyang City immediately, and my Dajin soldiers will buy you time to escape!"

Cheng Yifan's words had an immediate effect, and the people rushed to tell each other, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and the entire Luoyang City quickly became chaotic. Fortunately, in order to prepare for the defense of the city, most of the residents were resettled to live in the original downtown area within a radius of ten miles in the middle of the city, which was also convenient for management, but now it also provides convenience for the relocation of the city. The people dragged their children and daughters, and the women and young children rushed to the direction of Dongcheng in panic and fear.

This is also what Cheng Yifan meant, since the demon appeared at the west gate, then the escape in the opposite direction should be the fastest and most reasonable, he ordered the north and south gates to be closed, only the east gate was opened, so that the people could escape from the east gate, and evacuate along the first line of the tiger prison pass to the boundary of Zhongzhou. That's right, when they leave Luoyang City, they will be displaced, and even fall into the hands of the Hu people, but it is better than becoming food in the mouths of demons.

"The furniture is soft and only necessary, but the big things are a drag, the demons have no interest in your property, they only want your flesh and blood!" Cheng Yifan shouted, causing more cries and exclamations, while the speed of the crowd increased significantly.

Fuck, isn't this creating panic!" Zhang Xiu thought angrily, but had to admit that this method was very effective. It took only a little more than an hour for the 350,000 men to approach the east gate, which saved a lot of trouble for the 20 soldiers who maintained order.

"Master Cheng didn't hide anything, look at the people in a hurry. Zhang Xiu rode his horse and stopped beside the Dongyang Gate, watching the dense flow of people pouring out of the East Gate like a tide.

Cheng Yifan also rode a horse, wearing a cage and crown meticulously, and his expression was straight and majestic, but Zhang Xiu had always scoffed at his tone.

"At least let them tell the world what we are fighting against...... After we die. ”

Zhang Xiu was a little stunned, and for the first time, he paid close attention to Cheng Yifan's expression very seriously, so as to make sure that what he said just now was indeed said by this young man who was full of official style.

"It's up to you to say it, General Shen asked you to go with the people, anyway, Luoyang City is almost empty......"

"I'm an official of the imperial court, and I'm a Luoyang order!" Cheng Yifan said in an undeniable tone, and then didn't look at Zhang Xiu, and drove his horse towards the city.

A sesame mung bean petty official who is not in the stream at all, he still takes it seriously. Zhang Xiu really wanted to speculate with this kind of irony, but he knew very well that this kind of irony was a bit far-fetched, and even a bit of a villain...... When did I become a villain, and what kind of gentleman is he?

There was no way, the order he received was to follow the Luoyang order, so he could only follow closely, but just as he was about to fight his horse, he saw an ironclad warrior coming along the street, from the north of the city.

It was Mr. Ji of the Qianjia family, Zhang Xiu decided to take a few steps forward.

"Ji Zhuangshi, why did you get here?

"It's already a war, I can feel it, but I don't have time to be a clone for the time being, I'm casting a signal to inform my fellow believers, hoping that they will arrive in time. Ji Rui nodded at Zhang Xiu, the mount did not slow down, and the crowd in front of the city gate avoided one after another, got out of the way, and watched Ji Rui ride his horse and gallop sideways.

Ha, fellow Dao, I don't know who they are, Zhang Xiu thought in his heart, he only knew these people from the Qianjia, and there was also the fat Gan Zhuangshi who didn't show up.

The sergeants at the head of the city suddenly became noisy, and there seemed to be a commotion of fleeing crowds outside the city.

"Captain, captain!" an old man shouted to Zhang Xiu from the city, looking nervous.

It was the cell leader, Zhang Xiu recognized it, but at this time, the appearance of wearing a military uniform looked a little strange, but the muddy voice like phlegm did not change, it seems that he finally became a sentry guard.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiufei dismounted, stepped on the ice and snow of the stairs and ran quickly towards the city, his heart tightened, could it be that there were demons in this direction?

The old cell leader pointed outside the city: "There are Hu people's cavalry there, Hu people's cavalry!"
