Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Soldiers Are Coming to the City

At the border, there has already been a war. The commander of the Great Northern Army was a silver sword general named Guo Antai.

After Ren Zhan arrived, Guo Antai immediately reported that the general of the Heian Kingdom did not come to the appointment, saying that he was suddenly infected with the epidemic, bedridden, and could not come, and asked Tianchang to negotiate with the defenders of the Heian Kingdom to deal with it.

Ren Zhan asked, who is here among the defenders?

Guo Antai replied that there is no general rank. There are not even 10,000 commanders, only 1,000 commanders.

"There is only one thousand commanders, what about the country, how about the transfer of personnel?"

"I didn't find any transfers, but Excalibur City was closed, no entry and exit, and there was no way to know what was going on inside. ”

"Do they notice it, that's not right, if they do, all the troops should return to defense. What about their forces on the Dachang side?"

"Again, there was no movement. ”

"What about Dachangguo?"

"Stood still. ”

"That's fine, don't worry about why the city is closed. It's just that the water waves didn't come, and they couldn't take it directly, so it would be a little troublesome. If they had captured their Golden Knife General, it would have been much easier. Have you held the tunnel?"

"Hold on, Junzun personally led a hundred warriors to wait, and he couldn't run away. ”

"If you can't run away, it's fine, start a war immediately. There is only a team of 1,000 people, so don't waste your strength with them. ”

Hearing that the water waves did not come, Ren Zhan was not even interested in making a show, and gave the order to start the war.

After the personnel were assembled, they went straight to the Ping'an State Camp. The sound of an enemy attack sounded in the camp, and the commander rushed out and gave the order not to block the attack, but to retreat immediately.

In the face of tens of thousands of troops, a thousand of them hit stones with eggs, and the fight was in vain.

If you don't bring anything, the whole team of 1,000 people will run away. It's not that they're not brave, that's what the orders from above are given.

In the Excalibur King City, all the citizens of the city were preparing to retreat, and they were in the palace in the center of the city. On the square in front of the council hall, a stone sword as high as white rice stands. Under the stone sword, more than a dozen warriors struck their own Xuan Qi on the sword body. Purple lines lit up on the stone sword. As soon as these people got tired, a new warrior relay was carried out. It just goes on and on, and the lines that light up more and more.

The water waves, the king, and the valley of the leaves are watching, and they are always here. Ye Gu sighed: "I didn't expect that this stone sword could actually open a teleportation array. ”

The king said that this was the ancestor of the martial emperor, and personally invited the strongest thaumaturgists to arrange it together, and this Divine Sword King City was originally a secret construction. It seems that from that time, the ancestors knew that the Excalibur Dynasty would fall.

Shui Botao asked: "Where did the ancestor Martial Emperor suddenly step down from the throne and leave?"

The king said he did not know, and even generations of kings did not know about it. At that time, not only did the Ancestral Martial Emperor disappear, but the other Jinyang Martial Emperor, who was famous at that time, and the three strongest thaumaturgists, all disappeared at the same time, and they didn't know what happened.

Shui Wave asks when this divine sword teleportation will be opened?

The king said that if you push forward by 30 years, with the number of warriors in the Heian Palace at that time, maybe two days will be enough, and if you push forward by 60 years, it can even be started in an instant. But now the country of Heian is probably open completely, and the enemy army is already near, or even there. Excalibur City really can't defend it anymore, and in a few years, it won't even have the strength to retreat.

Shui Botao replied: "The soldiers defending the city have all gone to the city, if the enemy army arrives and has not yet opened, we can hold it for two hours by relying on the ten thousand arrows and crossbows left by our ancestors." If it's too late, it won't work, the enemy will definitely be able to break the city. ”

"Well, if you can make it, remember to destroy the crossbow with fire when you withdraw. When the time comes, the city wall will collapse, but the bottom of the 10,000-arrow crossbow will be supported by steel and go straight into the ground, so it will not collapse and break together, and it cannot be left to the enemy, not a single arrow. ”

"Yes. ”

The king told Hagu that the order would go down and all the people would gather around the five lakes in the city. Wait for the order to retreat at any time.

Ye Gu should be, retreat arrangement. The work of infusing the stone sword with Xuan Qi continued, and soon stones began to fall from the stone sword, and under the stone wrapping, there was a blue jade sword. The purple lines on the jade sword are more clear and complex, and a golden light flashes from time to time in the sword body, and every time it flashes, the sound of thunder will sound, and the stone shell wrapped outside will fall off in the thunder.

Ren Zhan led an army of 50,000 people, and there was no obstacle along the way, and he came straight to Excalibur City. And on the city, huge bows and crossbows stood on the edge of the city walls. Bundles of long bundles of bolts were lifted and snapped into the firing slots. The soldier cut the rope with a knife, and then pulled up a connecting rod in front of the crossbow, and the support rod was inserted into the hollow above the wall. A cone-shaped piece of iron is squeezed into bundles of arrows, so that the bolts will be scattered when fired. The upper cover is pressed down to hold the bolts in place.

The soldier's hand is grasped on the handle of the arrow, the crossbow of ten thousand arrows has long been opened, as long as the hand is pressed down, the wooden pole that supports the shooting power is released, the arrow will be shot, and the arrow can be operated by one person. However, in the early stage, it was necessary to use the winch of two people to rotate the crossbow bow. The crossbow is too big. However, although it is called a crossbow with ten thousand arrows, in fact, there are only a thousand arrows.

The army of Ren Zhan came to the city and asked why there was thunder in the city.

Guo Antai said that he didn't know, there were many mysteries in Shenjian City, and he still had to be careful when he entered the city later.

Ren Zhan told him to step forward and shout.

Guo Antai hit his horse and went up, and at this time, the water waves also appeared in front of the city tower.

"General Shui's participation in the war with illness is really hard. Guo Antai reached the moat, and when he stopped, he was ridiculed.

Shui Botao replied: "General Lao Guo is worried, his illness has been cured, I don't know why General Guo attacked Ping'an on a large scale?"

"Please General Shui discuss how to solve the border discussion, General Shui is sick, I and General Tianchang came to visit, General Shui opened the city gate. ”

"The gates of the city have been sealed with bricks and stones, and they cannot be opened, so if you want to come in, go over the walls. ”

Guo Antai shook his head: "I don't know what General Shui thinks, the city gate is closed, the moat rope bridge is completely destroyed, do you want to starve to death inside?"

"There will not be a famine in my royal city. ”

"I think General Shui should go down to the city and surrender, how long can you hold on to the impact of my 50,000 army?"

"Keeping for a while is a moment, and the Heian sergeant doesn't know what it means to surrender. ”

After Shui Botao finished speaking, he ordered loudly: "Ten thousand arrows and crossbows are ready, enter the range and attack immediately, let them see how far our crossbow arrows can go." ”

When Shui Waves issued the battle order, it was an expression of the attitude of never surrendering. Guo Antai snorted coldly, hit his horse back, and told Ren Zhan: "General Chief, the enemy has no intention of surrendering, attack." ”

Ren Zhan raised the golden broadsword in his hand: "The whole army listens to the order and takes the Divine Sword City." ”

The roaring shouts of killing sounded, the shield hand was in front, and the soldiers carrying a ladder of more than ten meters were behind, rushing towards Excalibur City.

The waves of water calculated the distance of the enemy, and when the enemy rushed close to the moat, he ordered the tricolor crossbow to fire in turn.

The so-called three-color crossbow does not mean that the crossbow is different, but the three-color markings are drawn, so that it is convenient for the conductor to shoot separately. Shoot it all at once, not to mention the waste, and it can't form a sustained blow.
