Chapter 271: Bloody Battle of Yingshui
Yueyang North, Yingshui.
The water is rolling and the waves are surging.
Dozens of miles of red blades and black blood, and more than ten miles of roaring.
The long river turns into red clothes and shoes, and life and death become yin and yang.
The king's order, do not obey, the lion crosses the river, and the fish and turtles are all in trouble.
The high platform standing in the middle of the river has long since collapsed, and the broken wooden planks are laid on the tumbling surface of the river, and it is difficult to find its magnificent traces as the surging water flows down the stairs. Moreover, the night banquet venue built by countless passenger boats has also been pierced through large and small holes, and most of the river water has been flooded from the bottom to the top. Countless Jianghu people, pure Yang Dao people, and government sergeants fought one after another, and it is estimated that it will not be long before these several miles of banquet will sink to the bottom of the river with the churning of the waves. A large part of the Jianghu people who did not participate in the war, so they quietly moved their positions to both sides of the big river, and the water level at both ends was not high, which was just enough for them to see clearly in the inter-field war. This can't be said to be their instigation, after all, tonight's battle has nothing to do with them, the fish and shrimp swimming underwater, and no one dares to make a mistake before the battle is unclear.
Southeast of the middle of the river...
The ornate purple and gold ship still undulated with the waves, barely moving. On the delicate Luanfeng willow wood bench, the dance banquet was still sitting lazily, and the tender jade fingers were idlely ruffling their long hair, as if they were looking at the center of the river casually. It's just that the two maids behind her who shook the fan changed the long fan in their hands into two fine purple and silver long swords, faintly filled with a dark purple aura, guarding both sides.
"Da-da..."
"The head of the family. ”
A middle-aged man in a purple and black cotton robe walked out of the cabin quickly. Like the woman who was repelled by the dance banquet before, he came to the position three steps behind the dance banquet, bowed respectfully, and then said softly: "After verification, in Yueyang City, the main force of the palace is the palace guards and Yueyang's pro-army, a total of more than 70,000 people, led by Wentong, Guan An, and Zhu Chengwu, most of whom are elite soldiers, guarding the north and west of Yingshui in the north of the city. In addition, 17 cities, including Xiangyang, Xianyang, and Yuyang, with a total of 430,000 garrison troops, have been sent to Yueyang a few days ago, and have not participated in the war for the time being.
And Xia Yuan is still strange. After repeated careful investigation by the spies, there were a total of 3,112 people who had gone to the banquet hidden in Yingshui before, all of whom were new stars in the past 20 years, and they had no ancestral hometowns. There are more than 220,000 people in the rivers and lakes who ambushed the north of the city this time, and most of them are unknown people or grass cowards, but they are all cultivated. According to incomplete statistics, there are nineteen King Realm powerhouses who have made a move, three hundred and seventy Heavenly Apocalypse Grandmasters, and the rest of them all have cultivation above the Imperial God Realm. According to the estimation of the strategists in the clan, Xia Yuan should still have reservations. At present, the two sides are fighting in the north of the city, and the number of casualties cannot be counted for the time being, but the situation is still within the control of the two sides and will not affect the area outside the north city. I believe that the Heavenly Sage will not come forward to mediate for the time being. ”
The comer quickly revealed the details of the battle in Yueyang City at this time.
After he finished speaking, Wu Yan lazily asked, "Where is the Bauhinia Army now?"
"Our army entered the city in three ways at the beginning of the hour, only because there was a royal order in the north city to seal the road, and we did not dare to trespass without the permission of the master of the house, and now we are stationed at the official road in the north of the city. As long as the master of the house gives an order, we can force our way into the city and drive Yingshui directly. The man shook his fists and replied in a sonorous voice.
"Break into the city and drive straight to Yingshui?"
She turned her face slightly, glanced at the respectful man behind her, and without warning, she raised a crescent-like sneer, and said, "What are you doing?"
"Uh..."
The man's voice was awkward for a moment, and he was speechless.
Yes, to do what?
For this question, the man really couldn't answer it, even the hundreds of thousands of "Bauhinia Army" stationed outside the northern boundary of the city, no one could answer it. Because this is a class issue, it only belongs to the thinking of the woman in front of her. The so-called soldiers hold swords, generals execute orders, and command thousands of armies, this is the truth. And now, as the commander of the army, the dance banquet coldly threw this problem on the head of his young general, which immediately made him break out in a cold sweat.
Now that the war is imminent, he is a general, not a staff member of the commander's tent, no matter whether his answer is right or wrong, as long as he speaks his words, it will be a capital crime of overstepping his authority and rebelling against the army!
He was stunned for a long moment, until the beads of sweat on his forehead slipped down the man's eyelids, and he replied jerkily: "Forgive, my subordinates are ignorant." ”
Wu Yan slowly put away the cold crescent on her lips, but the coldness in her eyes did not diminish much, and she said, "It's good to know..."
"If you don't say anything, even one more word, it's a capital offense. ”
"The subordinates understand. The man shook his fist and winced.
“......”
The dance banquet once again looked back at the heart of the Yingshui River.
The cold, scarlet early sun, facing her slightly powdered face, is like a bauhinia bud growing in ice water, beautiful and cold.
The heart of the river, the most exciting place tonight, is also the most apprehensive. At this time, there were not many corners still on the field, and the tens of thousands of banquet guests who had originally sat down had long since retreated, leaving only a small number of people to join the fierce fighting around them, while many more people stayed out of the matter and withdrew to both sides of the river.
"Nine turns into one!"
"Greedy wolf, Yaoguang, and Tiansha are arrayed in the north and south fourteen, Taiji and Liangyi!"
"Attack! Attack!"
"Boom!!Knock knock..."
“......”
The sword roared like a dragon, and the voice was hoarse.
Thousands of rays of light, breaking thousands of waves.
A little outside the center of the river, several white-haired old Taoists stepped on the broken wood floating on the surface of the river, shouting loudly. In front of them, there were thousands of Pure Yang Dao people in white clothes and silver swords, turning into thousands of thunder and light, leaping on the water waves, endlessly rushing towards the center of the river. In front of them, in the inner layer of the river, countless ironclad sergeants used dark and hard steel shields, layered on top of each other, and erected a circle of copper walls and iron walls.
This wall of copper is very hard, and it is surprisingly hard.
Pure Yang Palace is the originator of Taoist cultivation in the world, and there is no doubt about the strength of its cultivation techniques. And tonight, those who can be selected to attack Yueyang at night are all the best in the Pure Yang branch of the Southern Regions. Among them, the weakest ones at least have Heavenly Rush cultivation, and there are also many Heavenly Apocalypse Grandmaster-level figures. The combat power condensed by them can definitely be compared to any iron-blooded force in Datang that has been famous for many years. Otherwise, Zhou Yuanshan and the others would not have the courage to dare to break into the Longtan Tiger's Den. However, it was precisely such a group of powerful Pure Yang Dao people who had not broken through the iron wall in front of them for a long time...
"Boom!Knock!!"
"Beat me to death!"
“......”
The flying sword in the sky was like a torrential rain, and the sword qi exerted by the strong man of the Apocalypse was like a thunderbolt bombardment, the sky thunder rolled, and the tsunami waves.
This was so strong that even the power of the King Realm had to avoid its sharp attacks, bombarding the iron wall dozens of feet high in front of him again and again, blowing up lightning like falling thunder, like a thousand troops rushing to trample on it. Although this shield wall made up of countless sergeants is not immune to all attacks, it is like a turtle with its hands and feet shrunk, and it is really difficult to start.
Since there was no official confrontation, it is unknown what the strength of these sergeants who stood behind the shield wall was. But judging from the quality of this army and their assembly, this is definitely a rare elite in the Tang Dynasty.
The dark steel shield should be forged from some kind of rare steel, and when it withstands the attack of the Pure Yang Dao people who have cultivated below the Apocalypse Realm, the attack and defense will come into contact, and the extremely fierce Pure Yang Sword Qi will be unloaded five or six out of ten. The front force is exhausted, the back force is insufficient, and the remaining strength is simply not enough to destroy a corner of the overlapping shield wall. This is also the main reason why the people of the Pure Yang Dao have not been able to attack for a long time. Whenever a gap was created in a certain part of the shield wall by the combined efforts of several Pure Yang masters, the reserve sergeant who was behind the shield wall would quickly raise the shield to fill it up the next moment. Even if some Pure Yang Dao people with advanced cultivation grasped this momentary gap, and swept behind the wall with their swords, and were about to tear a gap for future generations, the countless spear warriors who were often waiting behind the shield wall would rush up and force people to withdraw. What's more, just after passing through the shield wall, before seeing the situation clearly, there were many people who were dismembered on the spot without paying attention.
Those who can lay out such an iron wall are indeed skilled in formation. Although it is difficult to kill, at least it is resistant to almost all enemy attacks. This made it impossible for the Pure Yang Dao people on the periphery to attack it in a short period of time. As long as they can't get in, that's enough.
Because, tonight their mission is only...
"Bao Shuai!"
