The wooden bridge that spanned half of the lake, no more than three feet wide, was the only way in and out of the Ghost King's Palace. Although this bridge is two feet wide, it is a dangerous place that can effectively prevent the enemy from entering the palace, and now it is used by Xiao Shizhu to deal with the death squad sent by the Ghost King.

Constantly sending troops to rush out with the tactics of adding fuel to the army, it was not that the ghost king was reckless, nor was he stupid; of course, he knew that sending troops to rush to the bridge at this time was the next strategy, and Xiao Shizhu, who was waiting for work, was happy. also knew that Xiao Shizhu would definitely use his advantage to deal with the sergeants he sent in turn. But he had no choice, if the army could not rush out, he would not be able to break the impasse of the siege. Therefore, he can only pin his last hope on this go.

The first batch of ghost king troops rushed down the bridge, and they were surrounded around, and the Xiao family army, who had already lined up to form a mandarin duck formation, used the sharp blade at the front end of the wolf to assassinate them.

There is a wooden bridge made of sacred wood here, and the temperature around it is not high, and those Xiao family soldiers did not even wear wooden pith, nor were they affected by the high temperature. Let the enemy army rush one after another like waves of frenzy on the shore. And the Xiao family army was still fearless, and took turns to fight, one by one, stabbing the enemy soldiers who dared to go down the bridge to death by the bridge.

War is so cruel and merciless, the moment you come and go, screams, screams and roars continue to sound by the bridge, one after another, straight into the sky, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

Although he saw his companions falling and turning into dust, the Ghost King Army was still unafraid of life and death. Caught between a rock and a dilemma, they had no choice but to fight against the odds. Turn the anger or fear that rises in your chest into countless courage and madness, and make up your mind that even if you die, you will die on the way forward.

This courage rendered the surrounding air, and the incessant fighting between the two armies blended together, forming a tragic and tragic scene. Even Xiao Shizhu, who was an enemy, and his Xiao family army were also in awe.

Suddenly, there was a burst of non-stop rapid drumming from the side of the Ghost King's Palace, each one becoming more and more urgent, making the Ghost King's army attacking on the bridge more and more courageous.

Under the fierce impact of the enemy, the Xiao family troops who surrounded the bridgehead were also slowly exhausted and gradually tired. Seeing this, Xiao Shizhu strode to the bridgehead despite Yu Rong's objection, snatched the drumstick in the drummer's hand, gritted his teeth and beat the drum hard.

The sonorous and powerful drums came, and it was the main general who beat the drum for himself, which made the Xiao family's army suddenly boost their morale, hurriedly put away their fatigue, and once again showed their hideous faces to the enemy.

Although occasionally a few sturdy enemy soldiers dodged the attack of the wolf hand, but before they could get off the bridge, before they could make any moves, they saw two eager pikemen rushing out of the opposite mandarin duck array, and they stepped forward with the spears in their hands and surrounded them.

The next second later, the spear head in the spearman's hand was like a pear flower, cold stars, and silver light, and those few enemy soldiers were killed.

And the tactic of adding fuel that the Ghost King had to use as a last resort also completely failed after the twentieth wave of attacks. The artillerymen of the Xiao family's army, under the command of Qin Yuan, took turns replacing the cannons with shotguns, and carried out rounds of shelling at all corners of the south of the Ghost King Palace in the distance.

Especially at the other end of the arched bridge, in the open space in front of the palace, which was full of ruins, every few tens of seconds, two or three shotguns, with a sharp whistling sound of death, fell from the sky. When it exploded, flames erupted, and smoke rose from the charred earth.

Thick smoke billowed down, and there they had just lined up and stood up, waiting for the enemy troops pouring up the arch bridge, most of whom were blown open by the shells, and burst out of them, shooting at the lead and iron pellets that shot in all directions, and shot a bloody blur.

Just when the Ghost King Army was in great pain, Ying Zhao and Xuanshui just arrived. Xiao Shizhu immediately ordered, the artillery bombardment of the troops continued, and the infantry formed a mandarin duck formation, attacked the bridge, and went straight to the Ghost King's Palace.

Those ghost king troops trapped on the bridge suddenly felt desperate, and the Xiao family army approaching step by step in front of them, and the enemy artillery bombardment behind them, not only cut off their support, but also cut off their retreat.

When they retreated to the middle of the bridge, they all turned their heads in unison, with red eyes, and for the last time in their lives, they glanced deeply at the palace in the distance behind them, and smiled indifferently. Just by such a glance, there was no trace of despair and concern on their faces, and a determined look of fear appeared between their eyebrows.

Then, the Ghost King Army, who was still on the bridge, all turned back, and their eyes burst out with a cold gaze unique to beasts, containing a desire for bloodlust and killing. They let out an earth-shattering roar in unison, kept squeezing forward, and bumped head-on into the Xiao Jiajun on the opposite side. Even if you can't slash the enemy, you have to try to squeeze the Xiao family army who attacked the bridge down the bridge.

At first, the Ghost King Army went crazy, and the Xiao Family Army was indeed stunned. The first few sergeants were rushed by the enemy, and they were unsteady on their feet, and one of them stumbled and fell off the bridge screaming, and instantly became one with the magma under the bridge.

But the Xiao family army is the Xiao family army, and they reacted quickly, and immediately re-launched the mandarin duck formation on the bridge, and the shield players at the head of the formation withstood the fierce impact of the enemy. The soldiers behind them also rushed up one after another, supporting each of their partners who were crumbling after being violently impacted, and at the same time, using the method of the ghost king army, they kept squeezing forward, and also squeezed several ghost king troops who rushed in front of them off the bridge.

Fortunately, this arch bridge is not a tofu scum project, otherwise the two sides would have broken apart long ago after hundreds of pushes back and forth.

But even so, the more than 300 ghost king troops still held on to the bridge, blocking the Xiao family's army from advancing for half an hour. Until all of them were killed in battle, not a single soldier retreated out of fear, and none of them surrendered, all of them died on the way to the charge.

For this reason, the Xiao family army also paid the tragic price of nearly 100 soldiers to completely eliminate the ghost king army on the bridge. If it weren't for their proficiency in mastering the Mandarin Duck Formation, I'm afraid that the casualties would be much greater.

Xiao Shizhu, who was standing on the shore of the lake in the distance, saw the last ghost king army guarding the bridge in the telescope, and when he saw that he was the only one left, he did not retreat, nor did he hesitate, but did not hesitate to spread his arms and stop the Xiao family army that was walking towards him quickly;

In the end, after being assassinated to death by three wolf wrinkles at the same time, he did not show remorse.

His strength was small at this moment, but his figure seemed so tall in this cruel battle for the arch bridge. So much so that the Xiao family soldiers passed by the place where he fell, even if his body had turned into dust, the soldiers would subconsciously raise their feet to avoid the armor lying quietly on the bridge.

When the ghost king army fell, Xiao Shizhu also silently put away the binoculars, then slowly took off his helmet and put it in his hand, stood up and stared at the arch bridge in front of him, bowed his head slightly, bent down slowly, straightened up, and said to Yu Rong Suse beside him: "Pass my order, after the war, set up an ancestral hall for this army, and enshrine the tablets of all the enemy warriors who stick to the arch bridge for future generations to admire, and send people to clean and worship every day, don't be lazy." ”。

"General, they are certainly respectable. Yu Rong's eyes widened and his lips opened slightly, but he did not speak, but looked at him with a stunned gaze for a moment before he said slowly: "But they are enemies, and your actions will only make the obedient people who have already submitted to our country turn against each other again." ”。

"Of course, the situation you said will happen, but this move can win more people's hearts. Xiao Shizhu was still staring into the distance with a solemn face, looking at the Xiao family soldiers who were marching forward from the bridge with neat steps and mountain walls, and said slowly: "Moreover, although they are enemies, their courage is respectable. Knowing that it is death, but in order to protect the companions behind him, he fights to kill the enemy and never retreats, which is something we should learn from. Even if they are hated enemies to us, it does not prevent us from having respect and respect for them. Yu Rong, you remember, I brought you down from Yumin Village, not to let you be a narrow-minded demon soul for the rest of your life, you have to learn to respect every opponent who deserves your respect. ”。

The serious look on his face was diametrically opposed to his previous giggling behavior pattern, no one expected that Xiao Shizhu, who was not serious in the past, would be able to say such philosophical words, which made Yu Rong shocked again.

"No. Yu Rong was stunned for a moment again, and after silently remembering his words in his heart, he also stood upright with him, and said solemnly: "The general's teachings must be remembered by the general. ”。

Xiao Shizhu saw that Xiao Jiajun had rushed off the bridge, and after quickly occupying the south side of the Ghost King Palace, Xiao Shizhu turned to Xuanshui and said, "Xuanshui, I will give you a glorious task." ”。

"What do you command?" asked Xuan Shui.

"You and Qin Yuan Yurong, take 5,000 sergeants to guard this place and artillery. As he spoke, he took Wu Zhiqi and them, and followed the army to the bridge.

An hour later, the defenders entrenched in the Ghost King's palace were completely wiped out by the Xiao family's army. The only ones left were the ghost king's ministers and servants who did not die in battle. Even the ghost king himself was captured by the British recruits.

Xiao Shizhu, escorted by the guards, came to the palace. But I saw that this ghost palace was twenty-eight miles around, the main hall Tiansha Hall was fifty zhang east and west, there were forty-three halls around, and there were nine pools in the spring.

All the halls are made of fragrant wood as the rafters, with apricot wood as the beams and pillars, the doors have golden patterns, the doors are inlaid with jade ornaments, the rafters are decorated with walls, and the windows are blue. The steps of the hall are all red, the left in front of each hall is the slope, you can go up by car, the right is the steps, for people to pick up the steps. Each hall has a wall band made of gold, interspersed with rare jade, and the breeze blows and makes a delicate sound.

Xiao Shizhu looked at these magnificent things, and shouted happily: "Get rich, get rich." After a while, I will dismantle them all and transport them all back to Shuoyue Island. ”。

As he spoke, he came to the Tiansha Palace, and after seeing the jade throne where the ghost king used to sit, Xiao Shizhu swaggered over and sat on it; his eyes lit up, he looked left and right for a long time, touched the armrest of the chair with his hand, and said to himself: "If there is an auction, this thing should be auctioned for a sky-high price!"

After finishing speaking, he saw Ying Zhao leading the soldiers, escorting the grizzled ghost king and his courtiers to the main hall.

"Big brother, the ghost king and his wife and children have been brought. "Ying Zhao gave up his hand to Xiao Shizhu, to.

Xiao Shizhu carefully looked at the ghost king standing at the front, but seeing that the ghost king was tall, but his nostrils were flirtatious, and after his lips were tilted outward, he couldn't help shaking his head and complaining: "Could it be that hundreds of years ago, all the male ghosts in the underworld died? I really don't know how my wife fell in love with you back then?"

As he spoke, he walked over to the ghost king whose hands were tied and stood still, and saw two women behind him. One is a middle-aged woman, who looks unremarkable, but the other is a woman, no more than twenty-eight years old, with a round goose egg face with small and delicate facial features, and delicate eyes under slender eyebrows, revealing infinite purity;

Xiao Shizhu looked at the young woman a few more times, and then said with a smile to the ghost king: "Ghost king, you are very blessed." ”。

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman let out a "Phew!" sound, glared at him, and spat at him, then turned her head away. The saliva spit on Xiao Shizhu's face, but he was not in a hurry, he just slowly raised his hand and wiped it off indiscriminately.

"Big brother. Ying Zhao walked up to Xiao Shizhu and said, "This is the daughter of the Ghost King, the Linglong County Lord Ghost Qian'er." The woman was his princess, the birth mother of Ghost Qian'er. ”。

"Oh, that's me mistaken. Xiao Shizhu pretended to suddenly realize, looked at the extremely ugly ghost king, and then looked at the mediocre-looking ghost princess, before his eyes fell on the face of the ghost Qian'er, but no matter how he looked at it, after the ghost Qian'er's delicate appearance did not look like the ghost king's own child, he smiled and said to Ying: "The ghost king's head is green enough." ”。

Before he finished speaking, the ghost king glared at him angrily and said sharply: "Xiao Shizhu, this king has challenged you, do you dare to fight me one-on-one?"
