【489】Inspect Daoshan Island
The explosion on the ground instantly wiped out the artillery emplacements of the Xudu army, and thirty of the fifty ghost cannons brought by King Taishan were placed in the west. But in the explosions and flames caused by the airdrop of the Flying Army, the tossed earth and rocks turned into a pile of broken copper and iron.
In the karmic fire bombs that exploded with the explosion, the karmic fire that shot out spread and sputtered with the wind, and the Xudu troops around the artillery array could not avoid it, and they reaped the consequences in an instant.
Before they could scream and scream, they were drowned out by karmic fires and explosive flames.
For a while, the formation of the Xudu army was in chaos, and the fear of the Jiuyou National Army was a little heavier. In a panic, they raised their crossbows and dragon spears in their hands and fired them into the air overhead.
But to no avail!
In view of the previous experience, the surviving Nine Shadow Kingdom Flying Heavenly Army had quickly flown to a height that their guns and arrows could not shoot, and they condescendingly dropped*, and in the midst of the roar, they wanted to fly away! What remained in the army of the Xudu Army was only a land full of scorched marks, rising smoke and raging flames, and a pile of stumps and flesh with fire from the Xudu Army.
It seems that the Nine Shadows Army has temporarily gained the upper hand, but it is not.
The attacks on the north and south sides of Langya Mountain are still continuing, and more than half of the forts in the west have already become a scorched and blackened ruins under the bombardment of the industrial fire bombs of the Xudu army.
As for the Nine Shadows National Army among them, they were naturally burned to death by the karmic fire of one of the ghost nemesis.
Moreover, the roof leak happened to rain overnight, but the infantry phalanx of the Xudu Army was killed at the foot of the western mountain at this time. Without hesitation, the soldiers set up a ladder and climbed up the hillside.
Seeing this, Zhu Hai, the guard of the Nine Hidden Kingdom in the west of the pass, hurriedly led two hundred ghost soldiers to kill him, but he was still one step too late, and more than a thousand ghost soldiers had already climbed the cliff near the foot of the mountain along the ladder and rushed towards the halfway point of the mountain.
The defenders on the cliffs near the foot of the mountain that Xuanshui had arranged before had already died under the fire dragon spears and ghost cannons of the Xudu army.
Zhu Hai rushed over, and the two copper hammers in his hands were wielded with a roar, beating the three enemy soldiers in front of him to the point of bleeding, and they were killed after bursting one after another.
He pushed the other two back half a foot and hit the steel knife in the hand of the ghost behind him.
In the splattering of ghost blood, Zhu Hai's double hammers picked up and struck, extremely brave, and the Xudu army, which was in full swing, wailed. The 209 Youguo Army that followed immediately killed Zhu Hai and fought the enemy with the stainless steel bayonets in front of the rainstorm.
Sometimes, when the enemy was unable to defeat the Xudu army, the Jiuyou National Army pulled the trigger regardless of it, and strafed all the enemy troops in front of him. When the Yudu army was in a panic, he couldn't help but complain secretly: "What about the knife and gun?"
There are also the Nine Shadows Army, which seems to have obtained the true inheritance of Xiao Shizhu in terms of shamelessness, and they will do everything to kill the enemy. They didn't show their faces, but the cat was in the dock fort behind the cliff that was bombarded into ruins by the Xudu army, and after pulling the pomegranate thunder they brought, they suddenly stood up and threw it down the cliff and crouched, and at the same time pulled the bolt of the rainstorm gun in their hands, and then got up from behind the broken wall and aimed at the eyebrows of the enemy not far in front of them.
For a while, the soldiers who were holding the ladder under the cliff, listening to the screams of their comrades on the cliff, were glad that they were saved from death because of the ladder, but they became a pile of stumps and broken arms in the ensuing explosion and flames.
And the ladder they had erected was blazing in the flames.
When the west side of the pass was in full swing, the north and south sides were not to be outdone. In the midst of the fierce trumpets, the war drums roared like thunder.
Placed in the army of Xudu on both sides of the north and south, the remaining twenty ghost cannons roared in unison, hitting one after another karmic fire bombs straight to the hillside. The Nine Shadows Army stationed between the cliffs and cliffs died in large numbers with the explosion.
The waves of air flew and set off a fire all over the mountain, and even the artillery of the Nine Shadows Kingdom on the turret in the forest was not spared. Under the violent explosion, the sawdust was thrown away, and the scorching smell overflowed with the smoke of gunpowder.
The thick smoke billowed straight into the sky, completely obscuring the sky above Langya Pass, and it could be seen from dozens of miles away.
Taking advantage of the heavy casualties of the Jiuyou National Army, the Xudu Army on the north and south sides was also like the Xudu Army in the west, and the infantry had already formed a phalanx, escorting a large number of cloud ladders towards this side.
At the same time, at the rear of the phalanx, all of them were crossbowmen armed with repeaters. As they marched, the crossbowmen raised their crossbows and fired their arrows at the hill.
A rain of arrows came down from the sky. Several of the Jiuyou National Army who survived the shelling were about to reload the artillery with shells, when they were sent out a sharp roar of crossbow arrows from the sky, instantly shooting the hedgehog.
The other Nine Shadows Army hurriedly lit the artillery and roared towards the bottom of the mountain. The firecrackers also reloaded the rainstorm guns, raised the rainstorm guns behind the wood and rocks on the mountain, and aimed at the Xudu army under the mountain.
The explosion and the thunderbolt followed, like a torrential rain and a violent wind, and the roar of death played in the Xudu army.
But the Xudu army did not flinch, they were afraid of the powerful firearms of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, but they were still using their actions to shuttle between the flames and the smoke, telling the Nine Shadows Army on the mountain that they were still so invincible in the underworld.
And the Nine Shadows Army on the mountain was also red-eyed, and they were also afraid of the fire dragon spears and karmic fire bullets of the Xudu Army under the mountain, but they still stood up and launched waves of fierce counterattacks between karmic fire and flames. With their flesh and blood, they roared at the Xudu army at the foot of the mountain: "You can only kill our body and soul, but you can't kill our courage!"
Only then did they fly back to the Nine Shadows Flying Army and the Air Cavalry in the mountains, and saw that there were still ghost cannons on the north and south sides, so they hurriedly replenished the firearms and took off again, and flew away in two groups towards the north and south.
Inspired by the strong wind, countless pomegranate thunders and incendiary canisters, as well as fire dragons, rushed into the artillery array of the Xudu army again. After taking the lives of tens of thousands of Nine Ghost Country troops, the fifty Nether Ghost Cannons brought by King Taishan were finally destroyed.
However, the offensive of the Xudu army was still unabated, and under the bombardment of guns, they used their crossbows and fire dragon guns in their hands to cover their infantry comrades, and killed like a tide at the foot of the mountain.
On the mountain filled with gunsmoke, the Nine Shadows Army also suffered heavy casualties. Most of the soldiers were covered in blood, but as long as they did not break their hands and feet, they just bandaged their wounds with strips of cloth and immediately went into battle.
The Xudu army, which had failed to attack it several times, began to be a little discouraged, and the number of the Nine Shadows Army was far inferior to theirs, but they held on to this hill without retreating, but became more and more courageous the more they fought.
The sound of killing shook the world and took people's hearts.
In the army of the Nine Shadows, many of them are still young people who are only seventeen or eighteen years old, and even some of the ghost soldiers are on the battlefield for the first time, but they are also in the cruel war, after their former friends fell in a pool of blood, they showed their hideous faces. Braving the fire bullets fired by the fire dragon spear, he drove the drunken capital who climbed up the mountain one after another, and took the trouble to drive it down the mountain again and again.
Their strong willpower and courage have exceeded the imagination of the Xudu Army, and they are also unknown to the Xudu Army, who have always been arrogant. It is this will and courage that supports them to fight bravely and move forward.
Even if the armor was stained with blood, even if it was full of holes, in order to no longer be enslaved, no longer without dignity, no longer without freedom and equality, and in order to protect all that they cherished, they roared and roared with firearms and swords, leaving deadly holes of blood in the bodies of the Xudu army!
At this time, the Xiazhou National Army, which was guarding the main roads on all sides of Langya Mountain on the periphery, saw that there was no Jiuyou Army to come to the rescue for a long time, and they also dispatched a lot of troops to rush over and join the battle.
The pressure on the Nine Shadows Army on the mountain is also increasing......
On the port south of Daoshan Island, on the beach behind the Nine Shadows Army's formation and the port, they quietly watched a huge naval division coming from the south.
After Lin Cong led his army to the east from this place, the management of Daoshan Island was handed over to a female ghost named Sparrowhawk, who was an apprentice who graduated from the Nine Shadows Academy at the same time as Thrush.
Unlike the thrush, this female ghost is a terrible ghost who died a tragic death. There was always a chill on her pale face, and there was always a bit of resentment and resentment in her two deep eye sockets. The other ghosts wept, and her eyes only bleed, and the sound from her mouth was always so terrible, so there was always a little terror.
This has also made her come to the underworld for hundreds of years, and it has been difficult for her to find employment, and she is often discriminated against by ghosts, and she is often hungry and full. If she hadn't starved to death on the side of the road and met Xiao Shizhu, who had entered the Communist Labor Country, she would not be where she is today.
But perhaps because of the ghosts, she is also resolute in her work, and she will not be soft in punishing the traitors of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Xiao Shizhu originally wanted her to stay in the court to be a cool official, so as to deter those ghosts who were against him.
However, the territory of the Nine Shadows Kingdom expanded rapidly, and the ghost talents were obviously insufficient, so this decision was also shelved, so she had to be transferred to manage Daoshan Island.
And he also put her in the right place, Daoshan Island is the border of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and it is also one of the pains of the Emperor Xudu. Since it was occupied by the Nine Shadows Kingdom, the Northern Yin Dynasty Water Master often came to harass and try to recapture this place.
And after Sparrowhawk took office, she immediately gave a military order to her sergeants: Anyone who invades will be killed!
Since then, the raiding warships of the Xudu Army have become meat buns for dogs, but whenever they get close to Daoshan Island, there is only one end.
At this time, she was also fully dressed, standing on the harbor and looking out at the huge fleet in the distance. She knew that the flagship was loaded with the ghost mother and Xiao Shizhu, who never discriminated against her and had the grace of knowing her.
Seeing the fleet getting closer and closer, the excitement in Sparrowhawk's heart became more and more intense.
The flagship was the first to enter the port, and after the ship stopped and lowered the wide sampan, Xiao Shizhu supported the ghost mother and carefully walked down from the ship.
The sergeant on the shore bowed his head to the two ghosts with the sparrowhawk, and shouted in unison: "Welcome to the King of the Nine Shadows and the Mother of the Country, and come to Daoshan Island to inspect." ”。
Standing on the shore, looking around at Xiao Shizhu, the first sentence that popped out of his mouth was: "The hills here are really all made of swords!"
When the ghost mother coughed hurriedly, she gently tugged at his sleeve and gave him a look, signaling that the local officials and soldiers had not yet straightened up.
Xiao Shizhu hurriedly put away his curiosity, and said aloud to the ghosts with a smile as always: "You don't have to be polite, I'm just here to take a look at the strangeness, and at the same time comfort you;
"Defend your homeland. After those Yin soldiers and ghost officials shouted in unison, they slowly straightened up.
"Sparrowhawk, you seem to have gained weight. Xiao Shizhu then swept his gaze over the waist of the sparrowhawk opposite, and said with a smile: "Is the local seafood for you to eat fat?"
He clearly remembered that this ghost used to have a Chu waist, why hadn't he seen it for more than a year, but this waist was a lot stronger?
As soon as these words came out, the sparrowhawk was nothing, except for a weird smile, and the two rows of sharp teeth in her mouth were also exposed.
