Chapter 162: Fear
The defenders of Barth Khan City thought they were facing a rain of arrows, but they didn't expect it to be a meteor shower.
If it was the former, they only needed to hide behind the women's wall and rely on their armor to defend, and most of the soldiers would not suffer much damage, but now, ......
When the meteor shower hit, they felt the majestic power, and many of them were already terrified, knowing that the blow they would face next might not be easy. But they never imagined that these crossbow arrows would be so strong.
The rammed earth female wall could not provide them with any protection at all, and they were directly pierced by crossbow arrows, and the armor on their bodies was the same as paper paste, and there was no protection at all. And when the crossbow bolt hits them, the rune circle engraved on it will explode suddenly!
The aura burst out, and ordinary soldiers became sideways minced meat on the spot, even if they were qi cultivators, they were seriously injured on the spot if they didn't reach the high level. After the monk who practiced the low level of qi was pierced through his body by a crossbow arrow, he died tragically on the spot!
A volley, 30,000 crossbow arrows, all fell on the city.
This is the shot of the qi cultivator, the accuracy is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers, the aura has not yet dissipated, and the second round of crossbow arrows came one after another, so the aura brilliance of the city head is obvious again, the blood mist and smoke and dust are more intense, and the screams are even more unbearable.
After three volleys, the head of this wall was already unrecognizable, not to mention the broken female wall, just the soldiers who fell in a pool of blood could not be counted. The whole city looked like a scratched face.
At this time, the soldiers defending the city who were exposed to the range of crossbow arrows, unless they had cultivated to a high level of qi training, the rest were either seriously injured or died. Of course, the people who became corpses would not react again, but the living people, including the great monks such as Luggins, were stunned when they looked at the tragic scene in front of them.
They never thought that the 30,000 Tang Army cavalry outside the city were all Qi cultivators, and the general realm was not low.
What they couldn't have expected was that the opponent's crossbows were all magic weapons, and the power of the crossbow arrows shot was so powerful!
Each crossbow arrow is also engraved with a rune array, not to mention the terrifying penetration, making the female wall a sieve, and the lethality of the explosion is comparable to that of a monk in the middle of Qi training.
Almost all of the 90,000 crossbow arrows were at the head of the city, that is, 90,000 times the mid-stage cultivator of Qi cultivation struck hard and burst out in an instant, how could they resist such power?
"Is this still an army? This is clearly a group of terrible demons!" someone clutched his head and wailed in pain.
"This is the army of the Tang Dynasty? Are they all the masters of Qi training from all over the country gathered together? Otherwise, how can they be powerful?!"
"A few more times when these ten thousand arrows come at once, our warriors will have to die! In the face of such a terrible rain of arrows, how can people stand at the head of the city?"
"Is the city of Barth Khan going to hell today?
Seeing that the high-level Qi cultivators all looked panicked, the corners of Lu Jinsi's mouth twitched. He wanted to reprimand them and cheer them up, but in the face of the ruined city and the flesh and blood all over the ground, he himself was horrified, and he had no confidence to say anything.
Turning his head to look at Tang Jun outside the city, his heart jumped, and the opponent's array began to accumulate aura light again, this is about to do it again!
The Tang Army didn't plan to stop!
Lukins sank his face, he knew very well that if he didn't deal with it, the morale of Barth Khan City would completely collapse.
"The other party only has 30,000 people, but there are 200,000 soldiers in our city, and there are more than 20 masters of the priest realm!"
Thinking of this, Lu Jinsi gritted his teeth, turned around and issued a military order, "Heavy cavalry attack, light cavalry attack and disturb the flanks, the great monk will contain them! I don't believe it, even if it is a demon, only 30,000, can still swallow Ba'er Si Khan City!"
At this time, he actually knew that if the defenders could not retreat, with only 30,000 cavalry, the Tang army would have no choice but to take the city, at most it would just release arrows.
Although the opponent's crossbow bolts are hugely powerful, they can destroy the female wall and the city tower, but they can't collapse the city wall.
But just looking at the reactions of the soldiers and monks in the city now, Lu Jinsi knew that if he didn't do anything, when the Tang army continued to shoot arrows into the city for a few days, the city of Barsi Khan would kill and injure countless Tang army's magic weapons and crossbows, and the range was not comparable to ordinary bows and arrows, and he, the city lord, would definitely be punished by the Khan at that time.
"We must curb the arrogance of the Tang Army and give them a little color, so that I can ask for help from Barasagon again, and I will have some confidence!" Lu Jinsi gritted his teeth.
Chu Zheng watched the city gate open, and the heavy cavalry galloped out, and there was a smile in his eyes, and then looked at the direction of the two city walls on the left and right, there were also heavy cavalry rumbling out, and there were also great monks flying out of the city, and when the air attacked, there was more smile in his eyes.
The defenders were finally beaten out.
That's exactly what he wants.
If the defenders can't retreat, it will not be easy for his 30,000 men to conquer the city of Barsihan.
"I heard that some time ago, Zhang Changan arrived here. Soon after, there was a great commotion here, with more than a dozen Crescent Moon Sect Grand Monks killed and hundreds of Qi cultivators killed and wounded. ”
Chu Zheng glanced at the towering city tower, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Since Zhang Chang'an's kid has already been majestic here, then I, as an elder brother, came to fight with 30,000 soldiers, if I can't capture the city, wouldn't it be very shameless?"
When I thought of this, the three groups of men and horses were all wrapped in iron armor heavy horses, each with about 10,000 people, and they had already rushed from the front, left and right, with a fierce momentum, like a mountain torrent.
"Just such a small person, with this kind of armament, dare to fight head-on with the Wolf Tooth Army?" Chu Zheng sneered, he originally thought that if the other party's strength was strong enough, he would be able to kill more fun.
Soon, however, behind these heavy horsemen, there were countless light horsemen, each of which was three times the number of heavy horses, and instead of rushing head-on, they began to surround in a roundabout way. It seems that they want to surround the Wolf Tooth Army and then slowly shoot and kill Ju Annihilation.
The great monk took the first step to reach the top of his head, his body was like a wild goose, and the magic weapon in his hand was as bright as the moon.
"Shoot down those big birds above your head first!" Chu Zheng gave an order to the military formation.
In the Wolf Tooth Army, there is no shortage of masters of the real human realm, for example, Chu Zheng himself is, but until the last resort, the real human realm will not leave the battle formation. To deal with the enemy's attacking Great Monks, the Wolf Tooth Army has its own way.
Some of the Wolf Tooth Army soldiers in the formation quickly took out many parts from their storage bags, and when they were combined, they became a huge crossbow-shaped magic weapon.
Its size is much larger than the bed crossbow, only smaller than the trebuchet, and the shape is not exactly the shape of the bed crossbow, there are many differences, especially the protruding long pipe in the middle, which is really too eye-catching.
This kind of thing was named a magic cannon by Li Ye.
When Lu Jinsi flew into the Wolf Tooth Army's military formation, he saw that there were more than a dozen large open spaces in the array, and there were strange magic weapons erected on the open space, which he had never seen, but it looked very majestic, and there were as many as a dozen monks operating it.
Instinctively, he felt that it was not good, Tang Jun's single strong crossbow could shoot the middle section of Qi training, and these things were not simple at first glance.
Without waiting for him to think too much, he saw that as the power of more than a dozen Tang Jun cultivators exploded, a circle of magic circle patterns appeared under each of them, and surging aura poured into the strange magic weapon, and the runes around the magic weapon lit up one after another, especially the long tube that stood out, which was as bright as the sun.
At the same time, the entire magic weapon paused backwards, the amplitude was not small, the ground was full of mud and dust, and a pillar of light flew out from the long tube, the speed was so fast, it was in front of you in an instant!
Suddenly, Lu Jinsi felt unspeakable extreme danger, his hair was about to stand on end, he had already taken precautions, but he only had time to cross his arms in front of his chest, and use his strength to form a defensive shield.
When the pillar of light smashed into his arm, Lu Jinsi only felt as if he had been hit head-on by an avalanche, and the severe pain made him snort, and there was a momentary blank in his mind, and the aura in his body seemed to be knocked away in an instant, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and his body flew out directly.
Fortunately, his cultivation is good in the end, and when he flew out, he barely stabilized the aura in his body, although he couldn't stop flying upside down, he could also control his body so that he wouldn't fall to the ground.
It was at this time that he saw the great monks in mid-air, one by one, who were pierced through their bodies by pillars of light, and turned into clouds of blood mist in the air!
At this moment, Luggins was terrified to the extreme.
"What is this?!How can there be such a powerful magic weapon in the world?!" Lu Jinsi was horrified, it was not without a magic weapon that could kill a great monk with one blow, but it was definitely not something that a qi cultivator could control!
And at this moment, Lu Jinsi saw that his heavy horse, nearly a thousand steps away, was hit by the meteor shower flying out of the wolf's tooth army array, and a group of people turned on their backs, and they didn't know how many dead and wounded. And those light horsemen with roundabout flanks were shot into frightened birds, running around.
Originally, the Great Monk should have made a strong attack and caused great damage and chaos to the Tang Army, so that he could contain the Tang Army's military formation and create opportunities for heavy cavalry to charge the formation and light cavalry to attack and disturb. But now that the Great Monk has died before he can attack, where is the ordinary army still the opponent of the Wolf Tooth Army?
What's even more terrifying for Lukins is still to come.
In the city of Barth Khan, there was a sudden loud noise and the sound of fighting, boiling the sky!
As soon as he turned around, he saw his deputy hurriedly flying over and reported to him: "Yeluo has united a few powerful people, with his own tribal army, and is attacking the defenders of the city!
Hearing this, Luggins spurted out a mouthful of blood.
There is a strong enemy outside that cannot be defeated, and he can still retreat to the city and defend it, as a shrunken turtle waiting for Satuk to come to help, but now that the city is in chaos, he no longer even has a way to retreat.
"You dog thief in the night!" Luggins pointed to the city and just yelled, he was so angry that his eyes turned black, and his body staggered and fell from mid-air.
In the face of the attack of 30,000 Tang troops, the city of Barsi Khan, which had 200,000 defenders, had only fought for less than half an hour, and the city was about to fall! The saddest thing was that his soldiers had not been able to break through the Tang army's strong crossbows and shoot them, and they had not even touched the corners of the Tang army's clothes!
The city of Barth Khan is finished, and so is he himself.
On this day, the people of this land remembered the fear that they had once been dominated by the Tang army.
