Chapter 12: The First Battle of Xijon

At this moment, outside the sunset pass, the Xirong pioneers who had been hidden for many days finally moved. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe mountain is full of strong men dressed in animal skins and armed with various primitive weapons, and they are as fast as galloping horses, and the muddy water is trampled and splashed everywhere by their bare feet. The witch doctors in the vanguard stood in the distance, dancing in the distance. Holding bone sticks and skulls, he shouts loudly from time to time during his stamping.

Hearing that Xirong was attacking the city, he abandoned Xu Ao, who was faintly confronting the two, and was running wildly on the central street connecting the east and west at the moment. From time to time, a pair of neat line-ups of armor soldiers on both sides, either armed with spears and broadswords, or carrying crossbows and longbows, trotted briskly towards the west gate. From time to time, a few armorers who have seen this little ghost will smile and say hello to him, but it is very relaxed.

In the past, I heard the most from the old widower's mouth is the story of his battle with Beidi and Xirong after joining the army, the Xirong in the story is a primitive person dressed in animal skins, holding stone tools, and only a nest of Ulala, every time I talk about the war between Daqin and Xirong, it is a one-sided massacre, the old widower in the story is so brave and invincible, it is said that he also personally cut down a few Xijon wizards who can spit poison.

It's just these, after seeing the sunset pass, Xu Ao didn't believe it. Although the body of this life is a six- or seven-year-old dog baby, his experience is that of the shopping mall elite of the previous life. If Xirong is really as unbearable as the old widower said, why would Great Qin spend manpower and material resources to build this sunset Xiongguan between these two mountains? Moreover, if Xirong is really so unbearable that he dares to argue with the son of the king of Qin, why should he be stationed here? Those black-armored soldiers stationed in the courtyard are full of spirit and skillful in arching and horse, and they do not look like ordinary soldiers at all. Now tell Xu Ao that Xirong is just a group of primitive people who wear animal skins and eat human flesh, but he doesn't believe it no matter what.

By the time Xu Ao ran to the west city wall, the two teams of men and horses on duty today and tomorrow had already assembled and boarded the city. The final pre-war checks are being done at the moment. Bundles of arrows were carried up the walls and distributed. In addition to the commonly used cow tendon bows and cowhide bows, the Qin army also had a small number of silk bows. The bowstring is made after soaking silk in medicine, and is divided into 18 bows and 36 bows according to the number of strands. An eighteen-strand bow is about one stone, and a thirty-six-strand bow requires more than two stones. At this moment, the defenders of the castle tower are holding eighteen silk bows. Since it had been raining for more than half a month, the bow and arrows made of cowhide and cowhide tendon in Xijon had long been soft. The defenders of the castle tower do not have to worry about the poisoned arrows of Xirong, which were the most lethal in the past. They all leaned out to mock this group of unclothed primitive people.

Since the defeat of this Liang Duwei to this sunset pass, it cannot be said that the armament is lax, but it is a fact that military discipline is becoming more and more lax. Although there were two guards of the Black Armor Army to guard together, it was to no avail. The Sunset Pass garrison is under the jurisdiction of Taiwei, and although the Black Armor Army is also under the jurisdiction of Taiwei, the Black Armor Army secret guard is directly under the King of Qin, in other words, this Black Armor Army is more like the Praetorian Guard, and the Black Armor Army Secret Guard is similar to the Jinyi Guard. Therefore, the three guards are not easy to interfere with. The situation of the three giants in this city, not to mention the Qin State, is the only one in the world. Fortunately, Sijon has not waged a large-scale war for decades. Only occasionally harassment is the appearance of some pioneer spies. Today's "siege warfare" of this scale is also a huge scale in this decade. I just don't know where these primitive people, who don't even know how to build ladders, have the courage to attack the Xiongguan that can be counted in the world.

By the time Xu Ao ran up to the city, the chaotic Xirong team was less than a kilometer away from the city wall. Qin Jun, who has good eyes, can even see the tattoos on those guys. The war drums on the tower of the "Dong" city shook the sky and roared, and all the archers of the Qin army standing at the forefront drew their arrows in unison. "Knock knock" all the flying arrows are wound. When the three drums sounded, it was a long roar of arrows in the sky.

I saw dozens of strong men with extraordinarily many tattoos suddenly jumping up in the Xirong team. The huge bronze chain hammer in his hand danced like a wheel. No matter how dense the rain of arrows is, it can't fall within three feet. Under the cover of dozens of strong men at the snap of their fingers, Xirong's team approached the city wall less than 800 paces. The second road in the city was bulging, and there was another round of arrow rain. At this moment, it is the time when those strong men in Xirong have landed, and the new power has not been born and the old power has been exhausted. Just when Xu Ao felt that this round of arrow rain could make meritorious contributions. The sorcerer mixed with Sijon's ranks crushed the baby's skull hidden in his arms. Suddenly, billowing green smoke exploded from all over the battlefield. The sorcerer with the skeleton in hand was blown into a pulp and sprinkled on the bodies of those around him.

I'm grass, suicide bombing doesn't have such a way to play. Isn't this not to the city wall yet! Xu Ao was dumbfounded, no wonder the Middle East loves to play this, feelings are genetic!

The flesh and blood spilled on the body were like a layer of armor, and the arrows that could easily pierce through the three layers of raw cowhide were almost useless when the castle tower was thrown down. Except for a few unlucky ones who had been shot in the eye or in the mouth, the rest of the men were less than five hundred steps away from the wall.

At this moment, Liang Duwei and other generals had already rushed to the city wall.

Liang Duwei frowned and glanced at the little ghost on the city tower full of grass. A pariah is a pariah and what such a fuss is. However, this is not the time to teach this little ghost a lesson, after all, it is not the face of his Liang family that is lost.

"Crossbow, armor-piercing arrows!" Liang Duwei, who had just seen the situation outside the city, shouted! All the second-row Qin troops immediately replaced the strong crossbows in their hands with armor-piercing arrows.

When Xirong was less than 200 steps away from the city wall, Liang Duwei gave an order. The second platoon of Qin Jun immediately bullied forward. Bang Bang Bang Occasionally, a strong man who tried to jump in vain was also knocked back to the ground by the impact of the crossbow. As soon as the wave stopped, the ground was full of wailing and scolding. Less than ten uninjured men were left close to the walls. I saw that they suddenly chopped their feet, leaving deep footprints on the tamped dirt outside the city, and the whole person jumped high with this force and jumped directly onto the city. The chain hammer in his hand flew up, and it was a piece of flesh and blood. The Qin army, whose tendons were broken and fractured, was smashed aside. The entire city wall cleared several open spaces in an instant. The Xirong man, who was especially majestic and had a lot of tattoos on his body, smiled and crossed the height of the city wall directly, just waiting to smash Xu Ao, who was stupidly watching on the city tower, into pulp.

Xu Ao said that I didn't say anything, but a hand was stretched out behind him, and I saw a little jade finger, and I didn't see any contact with the strong man, and the strong man who was still smiling a moment ago exploded his skull and died. Xu Ao sat down on the ground at this moment. I can't stop with my mouth.

Xi didn't look at the remnants of the fallen city, but just reached out to pull up the little ghost who was sitting on the ground.

Xu Ao didn't dare to take it, so he quickly patted his ass and stood up. Fortunately, Jiren has his own nature. I almost answered that old crow's mouth just now.

Seeing this, Xi smiled slightly, withdrew his hand, and stood facing the outside of the city.

I saw the black-armored swordsman standing last on the city wall cross the crowd and fight with the strong men of Xirong. The black-clad warlock behind him chanted spells from time to time, swinging spells one after another to bless the swordsman.

It can be seen that the eve who had just confronted the Seventh Prince was in a very good mood, so he explained it to Xu Ao. In most cases, the swordsman is responsible for hand-to-hand combat, and the warlock is responsible for distant support, or blessing the magic spell or weakening the opponent. Generally speaking, all swordsmen have the strength of the three grades of the human realm. If they encounter such a strong person who ordinary soldiers can't deal with at this moment, it is when they come into play. Of course, there are also a very small number of groups, where the warlock is the main attacker, and the swordsman is only responsible for entanglement of the opponent. Those warlocks are either good at puppets, or good at using poison. It's just that there are very few such combinations. After all, not everyone has the talent to practice offensive spells. These are just regular battles.

If they encounter a second-grade or even first-grade master who they can't match, it's time for the Black Armor Army's secret guards to make a move. The Great Qin Black Armor Army's Secret Guards are not a combat combination like ordinary Black Armor Army, and they are scarce in number, either good at swordsmanship, or good at spells, or good at beasts. Everyone's strength is the second grade of the human realm, and some of the best can even reach the first grade of the human realm. It is the real mainstay of the Qin army. The dark guards of the Great Qin Black Armor Army set up a total of one capital guard, twelve deputy guards, and thirty-six assistant guards.

When Xu Ao heard this, he couldn't help but think of Xi's heroic posture of breaking the enemy with one finger just now, and interjected to ask if Xi was the legendary master of the human realm. After thinking about it for a while, Xi shook his head slightly, and Xu Ao was immediately a little disappointed. Xi continued: "My swordsmanship should be regarded as a half-step peak, and my technique should be firmly at the peak of the human realm. Xu Ao looked confused, and said in his heart that he had met a freak.

Lao Dao, who hadn't appeared for more than ten days, snorted coldly in Xu Ao's heart: "There is a fart at the peak of the human realm, and Lao Dao didn't know how many he killed back then." If you practice the exercises given to you by the old way, you will be able to surpass this son in ten years. ”

Xu Ao glanced at Xi, who was still explaining, and saw that he was not aware of his abnormality. He whispered in his heart that he scolded this lofty old way, and when the old man heard that he didn't even know the most basic magic foundation, he rolled his eyes, and dropped a piece of "Building the Foundation" and disappeared.

Xi was still taking care of himself and explaining the battle downstairs to Xu Ao.

That Wang Wu was not strictly speaking an orthodox warlock, but a unique alchemist of Great Qin. Fangshi is good at poisoning and making puppets. The wooden dog at his feet is his puppet. Once an enemy is bitten, it will turn into thick water in less than a moment. In addition to the warlocks who are good at spells, the alchemists who are good at poison and puppets, and there are several special talents, but they are all secrets that cannot be passed on, so it is inconvenient to continue. When you enter the Yanwu Hall one day, those scholars will explain it to you in detail.

Xi glanced at Xu Ao, who was full of disappointment. I just feel that it looks like my own when I first entered the martial arts hall when I was a child. He reached out and touched his head, which was only up to his waist, and continued.

In addition to the Zhou Dynasty, which insists on cultivating orthodox warlocks, each country has different branches of warlocks. For example, in the Song Kingdom, there were alchemists who took Danmercury in order to live forever, in the Chu Kingdom, there were sorcerers who majored in the physical body to pull out mountains, and in the easternmost Qi Kingdom, there were Taoist priests who had babies in their wombs. There are no less than dozens of zeros. It's just that among all these warlock branches, there is only one Taoist priest, who is basically not affected by his own bloodline, but takes a fancy to the so-called Daoji. Most of the rest are because the purer the bloodline, the easier it is to practice. Therefore, the Qi State was also the most severely suppressed by the rest of the countries. It is said that when a Taoist priest cultivates to the highest depths, the infant in his body and his own body become one, and he can ascend to immortal in the daytime. Although the practice is difficult, it is much more promising than the rest of the branches. However, since the King of You, I haven't heard of anyone becoming an immortal for hundreds of years, let alone a god of magic who uses magic to seal the gods with magic, no matter how difficult the road is.

Xi laughed at herself and muttered quietly in her heart. The human environment is not too strong.
