Chapter 21 The Fall of Manchuan Pass

Wei Hongfang and the others drank happily at the city gate, eating meat and drinking a lot, so unhappy!

There was a circle of soldiers around, and from time to time an officer handed out a plate of meat or a jar of wine, and everyone shared it. The pro-soldiers who got the wine and food immediately praised one or two words of flattery, which made Wei Hongfang and the others even happier.

Where were the sergeants around the city gate still in the mood to monitor the situation outside the city, they all watched the bonfire feast near the city tower, and watched the soldiers quietly swallow their saliva.

His Royal Highness the King of Yue and Marshal Huangfu led a large army to attack, and there was no battle report yet, and it was safe for him and others to be stationed in Manchuan Pass in the rear for the time being. This was what the sergeants were thinking.

When Wei Hongfang and the others were playing wantonly, the heads were exposed in the large woods a mile outside the city gate, and they were the elves! Their sharp ears and cat-like pupils were very obvious, this was the elven clan division led by Isaia Darkleaf.

The elves are known as the race closest to nature, they are extremely good at hiding in the forest, if it weren't for the ten magic crystal cannons and a large number of magic crystals, they would have rushed to the city of Manchuan Pass long ago.

"Lord Duke, there is Manchuan Pass in front of you!Hey, what's going on in the city gatehouse, the flames are soaring to the sky!" Horace Xunjian whispered to Duke Isaia Darkleaf beside him, and at the same time, he was also surprised by the behavior of Wei Hongfang and the others at the head of Manchuan Pass.

Horace Swift was the Marquis of the Empire and the commander of the Fourth Army of the First Army of the Imperial Army.

"Well, Commander Horace, someone is lighting a bonfire at the head of the city and drinking!" said Isaiah Darkleaf, who was really blessed by the goddess of life!

With that, the heads that popped out of them retracted into the woods, and they were tired from the long journey, and they could have a good rest.

Time passed slowly, and the feast on the gate of Manchuan Pass was also coming to an end, and Wei Hongfang and other senior officers were drunk. The squadron of pro-soldiers was no better, staggering over the entire city gate.

After watching the banquet in the middle of the night, the rest of the soldiers on the city wall were affected by the feast of Wei Hongfang and others, and they couldn't help but feel relaxed in their hearts. Seeing Wei Hongfang so relaxed and entertaining, these soldiers also had a slack mentality towards the threat of the elven army. So, except for a few soldiers on duty who were left to nap by the wall, the rest of the soldiers fell asleep around the braziers.

Outside the dark city, a team of elves were tiptoeing towards the city wall with assembled ladders, so many elves didn't make the slightest sound, this kind of racial talent was really terrifying.

Isaia Darkleaf also came to the city with a group of great knights and high-ranking magicians, and glanced at several sections of the unguarded city wall. The elves slowly leaned the ladder against the city wall with light feet, and there was not a sound in the process.

After climbing the city wall, many masters took action, covering the mouths of the sleeping soldiers, and there was no sound with a slight twist.

After a while, the Qinling soldiers on several sections of the city wall were swept away, which made Isaia Dark Leaf feel incredible. He drew his sword and walked to the gatehouse, while the great knights behind him led the soldiers with bows and arrows down the steps of the city wall towards the gate hole.

On the ladder outside the city, a steady stream of elven soldiers was still climbing. Seeing that the city wall had been taken, Horace Xunjian excitedly led the main army to slowly advance towards the city gate.

"Enemy attack!ah......" A soldier just walked out of the hole in the city gate, and it was convenient to prepare, and he saw a group of thin soldiers wearing different armor pouring down from the city wall, and suddenly felt that something was wrong and shouted for warning.

"Hey!" An elven knight drew his bow with an arrow through the soldier's throat, choking out the remaining voices. It's a pity that the soldier's exclamation has already awakened the officer on duty in the city gate cave and the soldiers of Qinling.

"Elf?!" As soon as the officer on duty got up, he saw the soldier fall to the ground, and his eyes shrank as he looked at the enemy who rushed towards the city gate.

"Hold the shield, guard the city gate! It's the elves, watch out for the arrows!Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The officer on duty stepped back and ordered the soldiers to raise their shields against the arrows, and shouted loudly while the other soldiers were nervous!

The sound was finally heard, and there were many lights near the city gates. Seeing that the deeds were revealed, the big knight who led the team immediately raised his big sword without care, and a burst of cyan light flashed, rushing towards the city gate, and he must quickly destroy these defenders and open the city gate!

The other great knights also raised their big swords one after another, and a sea of cyan light suddenly lit up near the entire city gate cave, and they rushed towards the city gate defenders.

The gap in strength is too great, not only in terms of individual strength, but also in the overall strength of the army. The soldiers of the 92nd Division guarding the city gate fought desperately to block it, but it only lasted for a short time before they were slaughtered by these great knights.

"Squeak...... Ten great knights pushed the city gate in a group, and the two gates, which usually require a noose to open, slowly opened.

The officer on duty lay on the ground clutching his chest, blood gushing through his fingers. He looked at this qiē, his eyes showed a look of resentment and sorrow, he hated why he didn't inform General Hua Wei Hongfang and the others of their nonsense, and he also hated Wei Hongfang and others for causing trouble in the city defense and letting the elves take advantage of the situation! With unwillingness, he slowly closed his eyes.

"Kill, kill all the people of Qinling!" "Marquis Horace Swift Arrow drew his long sword, roared, and took the lead in rushing towards the city gate.

"Kill, kill, kill!" More than 30,000 elven soldiers behind him rushed to the city gate with their long swords held high.

At this time, on the city wall, hundreds of condescending high-level magicians no longer spared their magic power, and used their magic to sprinkle all over the town and barracks without money.

Isaia Dark Leaf walked to the inner wall of the city tower with a bloody sword in one hand and Wei Hongfang's head in the other. Throwing Wei Hongfang's head down, Zhenjian shouted loudly: "This is the division commander of the Qinling people, he has been killed! Elven warriors! Kill all the Qinling people! Occupy Manchuan Pass!"

It wasn't until the sound of magic bombardment from all over the city came that Hua Hui woke up from his slumber, and he hurriedly got up, but the armor on his body did not take off.

Then he heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing coming from the direction of the city gate. A cold sweat broke out on his back, and he picked up his sword and hurried out of the tent.

The moment in front of him made him feel dizzy for a while, a ball of magical light shot out on the city wall, and a burst of explosions and roars sounded in the city, and there was no shouting in the direction of the city gate, and the sound of arrows shooting, the noise of swords and the screams of soldiers were spreading towards the city.

The city gate has been lost! How could there be no alarm?! This was the conclusion that General Hua Hui had made in his heart, but he really couldn't understand why he had been raided so far after he had arranged it well.

"Division Commander! Division Commander! Hurry up! The city gate has been lost, and the soldiers of the 74th Division are running away when they open the north gate, and the brothers will almost be unable to resist it!" At this time, a man with disheveled hair, a bloody face, and a war knife broke in, Hua Hui took a closer look, it was his second flag commander!

"What's going on? Why didn't the city gate warn? What about Wei Hongfang? Even if he was drunk, he wouldn't have reacted to such a big movement, right?" Hua Hui asked calmly, for the general must not be alarmed, understand the situation and make a correct response.

"Last night, Wei Hongfang, this bastard, took several commanders of the 74th Division, went to the city tower to drink and have a good time, and drove away all the soldiers defending the city tower!

As a result, the elves came to attack, and now the southern city wall is all lost, the city gate has been opened, and the elf army is pouring in.

Wei Hongfang and the others have already been killed, we can't react yet, the barracks have been ended, and we finally gathered a group of soldiers to kill from the direction of the South Gate barracks!

As a result, I heard that the soldiers of the 74th Division were fleeing when they opened the north gate, and now they are resisting the brothers of our division in front!

Division commander, you should withdraw quickly!"

Hearing the words of the flag commander, Hua Hui smiled miserably, the barracks of the 92nd Division were in the direction of the South Gate, and the main force of the 74th Division was stationed in the North Gate Barracks. This Wei Hongfang wants to run to the south gate to make trouble, now he is dead, but his division has suffered heavy losses, how can he be worthy of the commander's entrustment!

"Gather the squadron of the personal guard and the squadrons directly under the division and regimental headquarters, it's time for us to be loyal to the empire!" Hua Hui slowly pulled out his sword and said in a deep voice, and then he walked towards the gate of the middle camp.

"Damn, it's a big deal to die, so I can still fight for my family!" scolded with hatred in his mouth, he tied his hair and followed Hua Hui's footsteps with a war knife.

Because of the suddenness of the incident, the entire 92nd Division was resting in the barracks at that time. Therefore, in the first few waves of magic attacks, more than half of the troops were lost, and then the remnants of the hastily assembled soldiers were led by the officers to resist the strong attack of the elven army, and under the overwhelming arrows and magic attacks, it can be said that there is no one in ten.

By the time Hua Hui led the Chinese army to encounter the elven army, the sound of resistance in various parts of the city gradually disappeared. A large group of elven soldiers surrounded the thousands of people led by Hua Hui, while the other soldiers rushed towards the north gate under the leadership of the officer.

"Kill!" Hua Hui raised his sword and killed the elven soldiers on the opposite side, and the soldiers behind him also fought desperately to protect him.

Hua Hui didn't know how many elves he had killed, the soldiers around him fell one by one, and those civilian personnel had all been killed, his knife had been rolled, and his strength had been exhausted!

"Heh, if Lao Tzu is in the prime of life, how can he be so bad!" Hua Hui stood there alone with his sword, he looked at the last sword blocked for himself, with the flag leader who was unwilling to fall down slowly, with a miserable smile on his face.

The surrounding elves looked at this high-ranking military attache with fierce eyes, and they all wanted to cut off the head of the person.

"Whew......" Hua Hui slashed himself with unwillingness and guilt towards Huangfu Lesheng, his eyes widened, and the tiger's body slowly fell backwards.

"Stop!" the elven soldiers were about to rush forward to snatch Hua Hui's head when Isaiah Darkleaf's voice rang out from behind the crowd.

The elves dodged away, and he walked slowly in with several large knights.

Looking at the corpse on the ground full of wounds and dead eyes, he slowly squatted down, gently closed his eyes for Hua Hui, and said: "The defeat of this battle is not the general's crime, although you and I are enemies and enemies, I admire the general's loyalty and bravery!"

Isaiah Dark Leaf personally cut off Wei Hongfang's head, that is because Wei Hongfang is just a scum, and Hua Hui is just an unfortunate pig-like teammate!

Then he stood up and ordered in a deep voice: "Loyal and brave men, be buried thickly!"

As the sky became brighter, all the Qinling soldiers in Manchuan Pass were killed and wounded, and only the remnants of the 74th Division broke and fled into Vientiane County.

Isaia Darkleaf ordered that no pursuit be pursued, and then ordered the army to strengthen the city's defenses, and at the same time burned the corpses, and sent a message to Prince Hicks.
