Chapter 184: A Fierce Battle in the Night

Ricky may not have imagined that this secret is inextricably linked to him, and he is both the heir of the Book of Heaven and the opponent who will defeat Gartnu. However, now he is still in the dark, just burying his head in dealing with Gartnu, and he does not know when the final mission will be completed.

Just as the Hujia army was celebrating its victory, the Capricorn army, under the command of General Gartnu, was preparing to launch a new round of counterattacks. This time, he planned to take revenge on the past and vowed to completely defeat the Hujia army.

General Gartnu planned to launch an attack in the middle of the night, taking advantage of the darkness to sneak near the main city and summon Canon to help him destroy the Hujia army in the city.

As all the arrangements were nearing completion, Gartnu swore an oath to encourage his subordinates to complete the night's raid, but there must be a leak, and Gartnu, in the flames of hatred, ignored the fact that a day later there would be a full moon night, when he would be cursed by his family, and how he would deal with it.

However, Gartnu planned to launch an attack the night before and destroy the main city in one fell swoop.

When it was close to midnight, the sky was unusually dark, and the moon unexpectedly did not appear, and Gatnu ordered the Capricorn army to advance in darkness and quietly approach the main city.

A large number of men and horses marched in the darkness of the night, and the camp of Gatnu was only ten miles from the main city, and soon after midnight they approached the main city.

These Capricorn soldiers walked in armor on the dark wilderness, like some creeping beast, silent, only the metal weapons made a crisp sound in the collision, but everything was secret, only the night air could feel their exhalation.

General Gartnu's team was only a few hundred meters away from the main city, and it was possible to see through the night that the gates were closed, and there was no light at the head of the city, as if even the soldiers who were usually stationed there had disappeared out of thin air.

General Gartnu showed a contemptuous smile on his face: "These Central Plains people are so happy, they are so careless when they just won a battle, they even forgot the regular garrison, it seems that God helps me, wait for me to capture the city, and I will cut you with a thousand knives and hang the beam to show the public!"

Then General Gartnu looked solemn, waved his hand and ordered in a low voice: "Attack!"

The generals standing beside his horses hurriedly commanded the besieging soldiers who had been prepared for a long time to carry the ladder straight to the city wall.

A moment later, the besieging Capricorn soldiers climbed up the city wall like ants.

At this critical moment, with the command of the city: "Fight!"

Torches were immediately lit up all around the city, and in the light of the fire, rows of neatly armored Hujia troops immediately lit up their weapons at the head of the city, and suddenly the drums on the city tower sounded in unison, and the horn of the attack whined.

I saw the Hujia army at the head of the city waving machetes, setting up bows and arrows to shoot at the Capricorn soldiers who had not had time to climb the battlements.

In an instant, the Capricorn soldiers who were about to climb the city wall stared at each other, and with a surprised expression, they were shot down the ladder by the defenders of the city.

Immediately afterwards, rows of trebuchets and crossbows mounted on the city walls, and the soldiers shot large stones and crossbow arrows at the Capricorn army lined up below the city in a shout of killing.

Needless to say, at this time, the Capricorn army had been dizzy by the sudden attack, and even General Gartnu did not expect that the Hujia army had already prepared, but just ambushed the troops and waited for them to start attacking.

Annoyed and angry, Gartnu categorically ordered to continue to increase the number of troops to attack the city.

The Capricorn soldiers attacked with great difficulty, and the soldiers who had just climbed the top of the city were cut to the ground by the defenders, and they fell to pieces in the high walls.

The rows of stones shot by trebuchets mercilessly smashed on the heads of the soldiers under the city, and many Capricorn soldiers seemed to have endured a catastrophe and were smashed to pieces.

As for the crossbow arrows that were fired, it was like a torrential rain that pierced the soldiers who had no time to dodge in the darkness.

The positions of the Capricorn soldiers were in disarray, and the soldiers raised their shields in an attempt to escape the sudden catastrophe.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the two sides were in a tug-of-war, but General Gartnu had already lost his head, and he kept ordering to attack the main city, but by this time the soldiers of the Capricorn country were already frightened, and kept retreating to the rear, wanting to leave this disaster place as soon as possible.

General Gartnu cursed on his horse, hating these soldiers, who were usually arrogant and indulgent, only knew how to rob money, but were so greedy for life and fear death when they approached battle.

But how can they not be afraid of a strong enemy who has been prepared for a long time?

At this time, the wizard leaned into General Gartnu's ear and reminded in a whisper: "General, it's better to summon Canon, it's too difficult to fight this time, and the Hujia army looks prepared!"

Gartnu glanced at the wizard, helpless, he sighed: "Why, these soldiers can't fight a good battle with their own strength, a group of incompetent people!"

When the wizard heard Gartnu's curse, he just smiled helplessly and stepped aside silently.

General Gartnu immediately ordered the besieging soldiers to retreat, and the army immediately retreated.

He then ran to a hidden hill in the company of several personal guards and wizards.

General Gartnu climbed up a high slope, holding a spear and looking at the city in the distance with resentment, he didn't expect such a well-planned surprise attack to be recognized by the Hujia army, and laid an ambush in advance to wait for him to raid late at night.

It is not a problem that the Capricorn army was caught off guard, and General Gartnu's arrogant heart was of course unbearable, he had always been accustomed to the honor of invincibility, and this time he was beaten by the Hujia army and lost his armor was a rare defeat in his military career.

General Gartnu intends to summon Canon to descend from the sky to save him from defeat.

He looked up at the sky, the sky was dark and full of dark clouds, General Gartnu sighed, raised the spear in his hand vigorously, raised his arms and shouted: "I summon Canon to appear with supreme power!"

In an instant, a dark cloud rolled up in mid-air, a dark red light appeared in the night, and a huge and terrifying figure of Canon appeared in the wilderness, only to see it hang its terrifying head and let out a thunderous voice: "Master, what do you have to call me?"

Gartnut was furious and immediately ordered Canon with all his might: "Almighty Canon, I command you to immediately destroy the enemies in the main city ahead, and the soul and flesh you have received are the highest reward!"

Canon laughed wildly, "Yes, the enemy in front, well, it's as simple as that!

Then Canon stomped his foot, and let out a loud, dull sound that echoed across the wilderness. Canon chanted a spell and waved his hand, and then groups of skeleton soldiers came out of the ground like weeds, and one by one straightened up their skeletons and rushed towards the main city.

The Capricorn soldiers who watched from a distance were terrified, and although they were used to the fact that Kanon summoned skeleton soldiers, it was still terrifying to see these terrifying scenes with their own eyes.

One by one, the skeletons rushed to the main city, and some of those who rushed ahead had already climbed the walls.

Huyan Ruiqi, who commanded the battle at the head of the city, immediately ordered a new round of attacks, and the trebuchets and crossbow arrows that had been on standby next to him rained down on the swarming skeletons.

Suddenly, the senseless skeletons were shattered by the boulders and crossbow arrows, and one by one they fell to the ground and turned into a pile of dust.

The skeletal soldiers who climbed to the top of the city wielded rusty scimitars and engaged in a fierce struggle with the defenders.

As far as the eye could see, the head of the city was full of flesh and blood, and broken bones were splashed everywhere. Every brick was stained with dark red blood, slippery and slippery when stepped on, filled with a pungent smell of blood.

The battle was fierce, the minutes were ticking, and the soldiers were extremely brave, and they knew that if they took a step back, then these skeletons would climb all over the city, and if they failed, the people of the city would suffer.

The skeletal soldiers that came in like a tidal wave still didn't make it to the top, and Canon just snorted and sneered, and then he began to summon Charizard to attack.

Canon recited the incantation, and in an instant, a shrill roar came from the sky, and groups of black-pressed winged wyverns pounced towards the main city.

Those terrible monsters flew into the city and spewed out clouds of flames, illuminating the dark night sky red.

Ruiqi, General Huyan, and General Murong immediately ordered ten thousand crossbows to be fired, and in an instant, thick crossbow arrows were fired at the low-flying Charizard.

Just as these terrible monsters flew close to the castle tower, they were shot through their bodies by the sharp crossbow arrows that had been supporting them and fell on the city walls.

When the monsters were on the verge of death, the corners of their mouths that could not open were still sporadic with fireworks.

Some fire-breathing dragons luckily flew over the city and flew towards the city, and in an instant the houses in the city were on fire, and the city was in chaos, General Murong hurriedly ran down the city wall and went straight to the city to organize rescue and extinguish the fire.

Huyan Ruiqi was extremely anxious, he was very worried that Yuxi would be in danger, but at this moment he could not leave the battlefield, and could only command the soldiers to put up stubborn resistance.

The two sides were constantly tugging and seesawing, time passed quickly, and the sky began to show a glimmer of light.

Suddenly, the number of Charizards flying towards the top of the city began to decrease, and the skeletons that kept climbing the top of the city began to retreat.

Riich quickly observed this anomaly, and he was very surprised, what was going on, could it be that Gartnu was planning to retreat?

Huyan Ruiqi looked into the distance, and the sky began to show a touch of brilliance, and the dark night began to fade away.

He realized immediately that the time Kanon had summoned the monsters was almost over, and it turned out that they had been fighting almost all night.

Riich felt that the time had come to completely defeat Gartnu, and at this time he should organize a large army to attack Gartnu and annihilate him in one fell swoop.

He hurriedly reported this extraordinary phenomenon to General Huyan, who immediately went out of the city to attack the army of the Capricorn State, and took advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
