Chapter 97: Air Support
War, bloody and brutal.
Either you die or I die.
The defenders of Qingshi Pass can also be called elite, and they are driven to death by the generals, and they can also desperately move forward.
This is also a helpless move, being pushed hard by the people behind me, pushing up...
The Xichang sergeants who attacked the city wall were restrained and couldn't move, and the outermost people kept falling, and the area occupied was shrinking little by little.
Air Force support is urgently needed.
However, the air force was expensive, and the degree of courage was far inferior to that of the mustard infantry, and they did not dare to charge into the range of the rain of arrows, but only rushed to the land of arrows with a bluff, and then rose up again, flying around in a noisy manner.
It seems to be very busy and lively, and it doesn't play much role in the battle situation at all.
Air support is not strong.
Xichang Yuanying was dissatisfied, and a group of Jin Dan behind him also hurriedly came on the field in person, condensed various spells in hand, and rushed down with the sword and smashed into the city.
In particular, the arrow tower was hit by the fireball technique one after another, and it burned, and the sergeant who was hit by the fireball jumped from the air with fire all over his body, and jumped into the enemy army quite bravely, igniting it in the crowd of the Xichang army, making the crowd of people riot.
Another fireball smashed into the defenders' pile, setting a large crowd on fire.
"Get out of the way and rush into the enemy..."
The sergeants who were ignited by the fire, whether they wanted to or not, could only rush into the pile of enemy soldiers and die with the enemy in their arms.
In this way, these soldiers of the Xichang army on the city wall were squeezed and fell off the city wall, and the defenders rushed forward violently, squeezing everyone off the city wall.
The Xichang Jindan who used the fireball technique was a little annoyed, as if he had helped the enemy army, and condensed a scorching sun-like fireball technique in his hand, and the sword rushed down, about to smash it into the pile of people on the city wall again.
But at this time, a figure stepped over, and a punch hit him, hitting him on a cloud ladder, and the fireball technique ignited the cloud ladder, causing the Xichang sergeants on the cloud ladder to jump down one after another...
This person who came out of thin air is the bluestone guard.
This person turned out to be a heavenly step, which surprised Zhou Xiaozhou.
I thought he was just an ordinary general, and he was humiliated by a group of minions during the foundation building period and didn't make a move, so he didn't hide it.
It can also be said that people are angry and disdain to fire ants so as not to dirty their hands.
Or they use the other party as the object of military training, and they are not in charge of the troops.
Anyway, he was too lazy to do anything to the people in the foundation building period, and the Jindan period could barely get into the eyes.
Sitting at an important level, you can't do it without some ability.
"It's finally out."
The two Yuan Babies in Xichang were waiting for him, and they immediately shot together, two against one.
After killing the guard, he naturally took the Qingshi Pass.
The guards were reluctant to fight in the pass, so as not to affect their own people, and lure these two Yuanying-level immortal cultivators away in a flash.
The Celestial Steps walked away, and the battle continued.
With the support of the air force, the Xichang army once again rushed up from the ladder, jumped into the city wall, and re-attacked the city.
There were originally four ladders, but this time only three were available.
This time, the defenders of the city were more prepared, and it was more difficult to stand on their feet again, and they were often stabbed to death by indiscriminate guns and slashed to death by jumping down.
It is difficult for the monks in the foundation building period to play much role in such a big war, at most they can harass and contain them.
The Jindan period is different, and the threat is still very great.
Monk Jindan is very fast, his bow and crossbow are difficult to hit, and the spell is quite powerful, and he will die if he is next to it.
More than a dozen Jindan monks of Xichang Protector Sect came and went, quite like a tiger entering a flock, and they could kill many people when they rushed down.
But it was not without casualties, and there were also many powerful warriors in the army, once the flight altitude was too low, they became the target of attack, and they were torn off from the flying swords, and they were killed in hand-to-hand combat and group beatings.
Although the immortal cultivator is an air force and occupies a clear advantage, it does not have a crushing advantage, and in the face of the elite army, there will be a lot of casualties.
The defenders threw a lot of oil on the ladders and ignited them with rockets, burning the three ladders again, and the siege slowly stopped.
Without the infantry attacking the city, the air force of Xichang State was angry and refused to give up.
The Protector Sect almost tried his best to attack a city, not only did he not defeat it, but there were also a lot of casualties, and he couldn't afford to lose this face!
Although their casualties were less than a fraction of the casualties of the defenders, they were an air force supplied by the whole country, and it would be a huge failure to produce such results.
Brother Jindan suffered several casualties, and he couldn't explain it.
The swordsmen still flew around and refused to retreat.
Or that no one dared to give the order to retreat, and the two Yuan Babies had not yet returned.
Some of the disciples in the foundation building period were forced to be hard, they were very tired when they came from afar, and they tried to queue up for a long time, and they kept flying around, the mana consumption was serious, and the physical consumption was even more serious, and the tossing did not stop for most of the day.
Tired!
When the body is tired, the ability to dodge the bow and crossbow is reduced, and even a more difficult aerial movement can be used to fall off the flying sword.
Casualties will only increase.
Even if the whole country is strong, it will cost a lot of resources to train a foundation building monk, and the money is expensive.
Especially if you lose a flying sword, it's not worth it than if you die.
When the flying sword is gone, there is one less air force, like a lot of pilots, but there are no fighter jets to fly.
If you want to get a flying sword, it is not easy to get the power of the whole country, it is not easy to buy, and the speed of building is slow.
Zhou Xiaozhou can't shoot arrows, so he can only play water archery, and use some water to turn the arrows into ice tricks, which are used to sneak attack the enemy.
But this kind of spell is difficult and far, at most it can shoot dozens of meters, and it is not as far as an ordinary bow and arrow.
He didn't dare to fly with his sword, so he could only mingle among the sergeants, waiting for a better opportunity.
Chance, as long as you wait patiently, you will always wait, there is a Xichang Jindan Imperial Sword flying over, smashing his bunch of people with fireball techniques, and everyone scatters in a hurry.
Zhou Xiaozhou was also busy dodging, the distance between the two sides was close, he threw a water arrow with his hand, Xichang Jindan waved his sleeves to block, and seemed to recognize the enemy immortal cultivator he was looking for, with a fierce light in his eyes, not only did he not pull up the height in time, but chased him to kill him.
"Junior, you must die."
A sergeant jerked up, trying to tear him off his flying sword.
The Jindan monk lit up a flame in his hand and slapped his palm on the sergeant, turning the sergeant into a burning man.
But the sergeant still grabbed him by the arm, and clung to him, dragging him down and dying with him.
Brother Jin Dan shook it several times, but he couldn't shake it off, and his angry other hand slapped it again, and Zhou Xiaozhou seized this opportunity, taking advantage of his entanglement with the sergeant, the three-inch flying sword shot him in the back of the heart.
Killed Brother Jindan again.
It wasn't until the Qingshi Pass guard flew back that the two Xichang Yuanying did not follow, and the people who protected the country were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated.
Is this a one-on-two still won?
At least I didn't lose, otherwise the other party would definitely chase after me.
Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't imagine that this guard was so fierce, he really couldn't underestimate anyone.
It is no wonder that the imperial court did not send reinforcements to Qingshi Pass, thinking that with this person, Qingshi Pass was not so easy to lose.
