Chapter Seventy-One: The Price of Failure

Gusu, Murong Mansion.

"I don't agree." Murong Yan frowned and looked at Murong Fu and said: "I, the prince of the Murong clan, even if I want to descend now, I will bring the land of two states, but Lu Xuan is only willing to give a second-grade position, as for the fifth-grade master, no matter where he goes, at least he is also a fourth-grade official position, which is equivalent to not giving it, what else is there to talk about?" ”

Murong Fu and Murong Yun looked at him silently, Murong Yan had automatically substituted himself into the second-rank official position? But judging from Lu Xuan's meaning, these two products are clearly prepared for Murong Fu.

However, there is one thing that Murong Yan said is right, the conditions given by Lu Xuan are very different from the expectations of the Murong family.

Not to mention that Murong Yan couldn't accept it, Murong Yun and Murong Fu were equally unacceptable.

"Fu'er, I think this matter will be delayed for the time being, didn't Lu Xuan say three days, after three days, we will go to defend the city in person, even if it is a four-rank Zen master, gather more Confucian students to unite with you, you can also block his Sanskrit sound, let that Lu Xuan know that it is not easy to take Wuzhou, and it will be much easier to talk about it when the time comes." Murong Yun persuaded.

In this world, in the end, it is the strength that speaks, Lu Xuan is so contemptuous of them now, I think it is because he has an absolute advantage, but the luck of the Murong family is still there, Lu Xuan's master advantage is enough to offset the luck on the territory of the Murong family, Murong Fu is a Confucian cultivator in the realm of virtue, and he still has a great advantage in defending the city, and Sanskrit is not incomprehensible to the Murong family.

"Well, that's what I mean." Murong Fu nodded.

"But now that Lu Xuan can subdue a four-rank Zen master, it is really powerful, I agree to belong to the Unified Sect, but the Murong family must at least have a piece of their own autonomous land." Murong Yun pondered.

Lu Xuan not only keeps the seal of mountains and rivers, but the most important thing is to make a Buddhist four-grade Zen master bow down and obey orders, with Lu Xuan's current number of masters, he already has the qualifications to argue with the Dao Alliance, which is also a reason why everyone in the Murong family accepts Murong Fu's words.

Three days passed quickly, in order to fight this battle, Murong Fu personally came to a big city on the front line closest to the Guiyi Sect, and transferred all the elites that could be mobilized, and at the same time, a large number of Confucian students entered this city, condensing the green energy of the city and preparing to resist Lu Xuan.

Returning to the Unified Sect camp, listening to the report of his subordinates, Yan Danfeng frowned and said, "Is this Murong family going to threaten each other with this battle?" ”

"Normally, negotiations need bargaining chips, and we have to show that the price paid for swallowing them is too great, so that we can strive for more benefits." Lu Xuan said: "And we have to let them accept the conditions obediently, and we also have to use this battle to let them know that the conditions I gave are already very good, this war is sometimes just to let everyone have a number in their hearts, so that it is convenient to sit down and talk." ”

"Subordinates go down to sweep the battle for General Yang Chong!" Yan Danfeng got up and said.

This battle is the key to whether the Unified Sect can take Wuzhou and Liuzhou, and it must not be lost.

"Well, then there is Second Senior Brother Lao." Lu Xuan nodded, the other party wants to show force, most of the five products will not make a move, and there is no way to make a move, but it is good to have a deterrent.

Yan Danfeng clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and left, and went to the front line to sweep the formation.

Outside the big city, flying boats swept by at low altitude, looking down on the city shrouded in green air, and at the same time, the Guiyi Sect army also arranged all kinds of siege equipment, and boxes of broken arrows were carried up.

Above the city, Murong Yun looked at this scene and frowned, "The Guiyi Sect is not ready to let that Yuanzhen Zen Master make a move?" ”

"Since you want me to be convinced, naturally you can't just rely on high-grade strength, and with the number of Confucian students in the city today, even if you are a fourth-grade Zen master, it is not easy to break my green qi with Sanskrit sound alone." Murong Fu carefully looked at the other party's siege equipment and said, "Moreover, many of the siege equipment of the Guiyi Sect are magic weapons, and my aunt should not be taken lightly. ”

Murong Yun nodded, and at this moment, a Unified Sect general rushed out of the battle, came to the city, and said loudly: "Listen to the defenders in the city, my Unified Sect does not want to kill more, surrender at this time, you can avoid military disasters and kill less." ”

Now is the time for both sides to show their muscles to each other, and to do things quite well.

Murong Fu said with a smile: "Even if I come to attack, I also want to see the martial arts of the Guiyi Sect!" ”

The general didn't say much, he turned around and left, this politeness was over, and then it was time to move seriously.

Yang Chong stood on the flying boat, suspended above the army, his eyes looked at the layout of the other party through the green qi of the moat, and when he saw the return of the shouting general, he didn't say more: "Break the city crossbow, test fire a round indiscriminately!" ”

The self-owned flag officer stood on the flying boat and waved the command flag to the army below.

Under the command of generals at all levels, one after another city-breaking crossbows roared at the same time, and thick and long arrows swept the ground, and the cold arrows tore through the air and let out bursts of piercing screams.

"Bang Bang Bang~"

The city-breaking crossbow bombarded the green qi of the city guard, and the green qi of the entire city fluctuated violently in an instant, and after a round of test firing, the green qi of the city was not broken, but it churned violently.

Murong Fu looked at this scene with some amazement: "This is the siege weapon of the Guiyi Sect?" The power is really good, if you hadn't prepared it today, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to stop it. ”

"Kunxia, ten rapid fires."

"Boom Boom~" With Yang Chong's command, the city-breaking crossbow adjusted its direction and launched continuously from the west to the southwest, and in an instant, the entire city's moat and green qi were violently consumed, and there were constantly crossbow arrows breaking through the defense of the moat and bombarding the city wall.

Murong Fu looked at the broken crossbow that directly penetrated the female wall, and his complexion changed slightly, is there a continuous fire on this bed crossbow?

However, without waiting for Murong Fu to react, the opponent's city-breaking crossbow turned around again and attacked continuously in the other direction, but this city-moat Qingqi also has weaknesses, especially when it was broken just now, the surrounding Confucian students subconsciously mobilized Qingqi to defend there, but if this side increases, it will inevitably make the other side weak, and the total amount of Qingqi in the moat is limited in a certain period of time, even if you want to increase it again, you have to re-condense the new moat-green qi.

And Yang Chong has long had experience in the method of breaking the Gang Arrow to crack the green qi of the city guard, and constantly asked the other party to mobilize the green qi of the city to fill the loopholes, but it also made more flaws, but three rounds of shots came down, and the green qi of the city guard was already full of holes.

Immediately after, Murong Fu saw the opponent's siege vehicle slowly coming out of the battle, the strange thing is that the siege vehicle can move forward on its own without being pushed, there should be people inside, but it is protected by the baffle of the siege vehicle, and ordinary bows and arrows are difficult to hurt.

Seeing this, a Confucian scholar took off his brush from his waist, lifted the pen to the air, and a wisp of green qi melted into the pen.

"Boom~" The mountain character fell, and a big mountain phantom faintly appeared, smashing towards the siege vehicle, but above the siege vehicle, a formation pattern was lit up, forming a turtleshell-like array to block the mountain character, and continued to move towards the city gate.

At the same time, more siege vehicles slowly drove out of the enemy's formation, heading towards the city gate, and the city-breaking crossbow continued to fire arrows without stopping, and the effect of the city-protecting green qi on the broken arrows became smaller and smaller.

Murong Fu frowned, stretched out his hand, took out a jade pen, and a little bit into the air, a large amount of green qi was integrated into the jade pen, but he saw Murong Fu writing in the air: the pen fell into a storm, and the poem became a crying ghost.

Between heaven and earth, it was instantly dark, and the wind rose on the flat ground, rolling up the sand and falling towards the siege vehicle, and the flickering array on the front siege vehicle gradually faded in this wind and sand, and then it was instantly blown away by the wind and sand.

At the same time, between heaven and earth, there seemed to be thousands of ghosts howling, and countless people in the army of the Guiyi Sect were terrified, and it seemed that it was not a battlefield in front of them, but a netherworld.

More than a dozen flying boats lost control and staggered to the ground.

"Yang Chong, wake up!" Yan Danfeng, who was sweeping the formation, was the least affected, seeing that Yang Chong was also affected, his brows furrowed, his anger sank, and he drank softly, but it instantly resounded on the battlefield, and the endless ghost cry disappeared in an instant under Yan Danfeng's scolding.

Yang Chong perked up and came to his senses, but he saw that the green aura of the city protector in the opposite city had faded a lot at this moment, and he shouted with palpitations: "Quick, Tiangang Arrow Array!" Indiscriminate shooting! ”

When the flag waved, the city-breaking crossbows roared, and countless sharp arrows converged in the air into a huge arrow net and fell towards the city.

"Solid!" Murong Fu picked up the pen and wrote again, and the green qi in the sky gradually gathered, turning into an illusory city wall to block the rain of arrows from the sky, but the siege vehicles under the city suddenly accelerated and quickly rushed to the front of the moat.

But seeing the formation flickering under the siege vehicle, extending a pontoon bridge built by the formation, so that the siege vehicle quickly crossed the moat and rushed to the city gate, the wooden plank in front of the siege vehicle suddenly opened, and a thick piece of wood poked out from the inside, and at the same time bombarded the city gate, just a tea time, it bombarded more than 30 times, for a while, the city gate trembled, the earth and stones fell, and the position of the collision wood was innumerable.

In the sky, the cyan illusory city wall collapsed when it blocked the third round of arrow rain, and at the same time, the green aura of the city was dissipated.

At the same time, the exclamations of the soldiers were also heard under the city gate, and the city gate was smashed by the strange siege engine.

One by one, the flying boats began to move forward to the top of the city and fired arrows downward, and at the same time, the army of the Unified Sect also began to attack the city at the moment when the city gate was broken.

Murong Fu closed his eyes a little helplessly, thinking that he would not be able to hold it, but he didn't expect that he would be defeated so completely, and even the other party did not use the four products, he successfully broke through this city where he had gathered a large number of elite forces, and the military ability of the Guiyi Sect far exceeded Murong Fu's estimate.

This city was easily breached, so before the other party attacked Gusu, I am afraid it would be difficult to organize such a defense.

In this battle, he lost himself, and he lost the bargaining power with the Unification Church.

"Auntie, let's go." After a long time, Murong Fu sighed, and now there is no other choice......
