Chapter 302 Bloody Battle At The City Head
Dozens of teams and tens of thousands of monks lined up on the ten-mile-long city wall.
Standing at the top of the city and looking out, I saw a huge city built in the distance outside the pass. The city was crowded with people and the evil spirit was soaring to the sky.
As for the Xuantian League, the city is now full of people, and there are many high-level monks standing in the sky. There are huge spiritual giants placed inside and outside the level and on the nearby hills. Crossbow and Five Elements Spirit Cannon.
It is conceivable that as long as an enemy monk dares to cross the warning area, hundreds of five-element spiritual cannons and thousands of spiritual crossbows will be fired at once, clearing the surrounding sky and earth.
"Look! What is that?" Suddenly a monk exclaimed.
Everyone looked for their voice and saw outside the enemy city in front of them. At this time, there was a large group of haggard-looking young female cultivators being escorted by hundreds of enemy cultivators. They were driven continuously into the enemy city. At a glance, there were at least thousands of them. Every appearance is good.
"What are they doing?" All the monks looked confused.
"These are the Xuantian female cultivators captured by the Qianlong thieves from the Northern Three Continents and used as military prostitutes. There have been several batches during this period." An old Taoist sighed silently.
"What? Are they all female cultivators from Xuantian Continent?" Everyone's expressions suddenly changed when they heard this.
"Yes, they were all captured during this period. These days, after the Qianlong thieves knew that Beisanzhou could not be conquered, they showed their cruel nature. They searched everywhere and demoted all the men they caught into mining slaves. They killed women at will. Then they will all be dragged to the military camp and become military prostitutes. They will be ravaged by at least hundreds of people a day, and they will not be able to die even if they want to!" said the old Taoist with a sad look on his face.
"These beasts! I'm going out to fight them!!!"
At this time, every new monk from each sect on the city wall showed an expression of indignation.
Although they had long known that the Qianlong thieves were cruel and ruthless, they realized after arriving at the scene that they were so inhumane! ! !
"Don't! The other side is deliberately trying to provoke us out. This is their tactic! Once you fall into the trap, we won't be able to hold the Eagle Head Pass!" the old Taoist sighed.
At the beginning, they also organized large armies to go out for rescue, but without exception, they all lost miserably.
"This... this is so frustrating!" Upon hearing this, the monks were filled with resentment but could not vent their anger. They could only punch the stone wall with hatred.
The female cultivators on the opposite side couldn't help but feel extremely desperate in their hearts when they saw that Xuantian's army was not far away, but no one dared to save them.
When they thought about what they would face if they entered the enemy's city, their faces turned pale and there was no trace of blood left.
"Is war so unscrupulous?"
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu silently clenched his fists tightly.
The sword guards behind them gritted their teeth and remained silent!
Not long after, the Qianlong army finally gathered, and the day's siege was about to begin.
As the war drums sounded intensively, hundreds of enemy monks were seen outside the pass and suddenly escorted prisoners of war who were covered with wounds to the front of the battle formation. Then they made the prisoners kneel in rows, and then lifted them up one by one. The butcher's knife chopped off the prisoners' heads, piled them together, and threw them to several ugly monsters to devour.
Some prisoners were unwilling to be killed and struggled desperately to resist. However, their cultivation had already been imprisoned, and they were still split into two pieces with a knife.
"What are they doing?" When the Xuantian monks saw this scene, their veins were immediately exposed.
"This is to kill prisoners and sacrifice to heaven. This is what happens before every battle!"
"Beast! Where is our god-level spiritual cannon?"
"It has been destroyed..." After finishing speaking, Lao Dao felt sad.
That god-level spiritual cannon was extremely easy to use, but it was a pity that it was too threatening and was destroyed by Qianlong Continent at all costs.
"However, they also paid a high price for this!"
"..."
At this time, everyone felt suffocated and extremely depressed.
As the attack horn sounded, the Hidden Dragon Army finally moved. Groups of enemy cultivators were either flying at low altitude with swords or running wildly on the ground with beasts. Some of the beast-blood warriors even directly transformed into madness, as fast as cheetahs, and the blackness was overwhelming. One piece, densely packed like steel monsters, rushed toward Yingshou Pass.
"Why are there so many people?"
"I'm afraid it's more than a hundred thousand, right?"
The monks on the checkpoint all took a deep breath at this time.
This was just a day's siege. There were black spots everywhere, and they were all armed to the teeth.
"Most of the people here are Xuantian monks from the three northern continents. Their people were controlled and many of them were forced to surrender." An old Taoist explained.
"What should we do? Fight or not?" When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.
"We must fight! There can be no mercy at this time!" the old Taoist said firmly.
Sure enough, the next moment, the Xuantian Alliance's God Transformation Commander issued an order to prepare for war.
"Spirit cannon ready!"
"Prepare the giant crossbow!"
All of a sudden, rows of continuous spiritual crossbows and spiritual cannons all adjusted their angles and were ready to attack at any time.
"kill!"
Seeing the enemy troops crossing the cordon, everyone held their breath and roared.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
A series of black iron giant arrows and spiritual bullets of various colors, with unparalleled power, seemed to tear apart the space, and shot forward overwhelmingly.
"Snake move!" General Qianlong shouted upon seeing this. .
However.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
There were still some enemy monks who were unable to dodge and were hit by the huge arrows that came instantly. They were nailed to the ground with their armor on, and the ends of the arrows were still trembling.
The enemy cultivator who was accidentally hit by the high-level spiritual cannon was directly transformed into a cloud of blood mist, with no bones left.
However, the Qianlong monks did not dare to retreat at all. After all, the Qianlong military treated deserters extremely cruelly. As long as they dared to retreat, their lives would definitely be worse than death after they returned.
"Ballista Battalion, counterattack!" Seeing that the team was blocked, General Qianlong shouted quickly.
At this time, the artillery and crossbow troops from Qianlong Continent finally reached the firing range, and they set up their forts and launched the attack.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A huge arm-thick crossbow arrow shot straight towards the city wall like thunder, directly sending sparks flying across the city wall.
When Xuantian's people were flying arrows from the sky, they immediately ducked behind the protective wall to avoid it. However, although the protective wall was protected by formations, they were still blasted with big holes by a powerful giant crossbow. .
There were even many particularly powerful arrows that passed directly through the wall, piercing the body of the monk hiding behind the protective wall, and screams could not be heard for a while.
Fortunately, most of the super-destructive attacks were blocked by the Xuantian Alliance's generals.
With the arrival of this round of counterattack, everyone immediately realized that today's defense of the city might be extremely difficult.
After all, in this siege, the enemy's firepower was extremely powerful and overwhelming. For a time, everyone in Xuantian did not dare to take the lead, and the firing speed of arrows and spiritual cannons was greatly reduced.
But the other party's speed accelerated as a result.
"Free fire!" the general of the Xuantian Alliance roared and commanded while knocking away all kinds of attacks around him.
However, many monks had just stepped forward to fight back, but they were hit by giant arrows or spiritual cannons that came out of nowhere. With a "bang", some were blown to bits of flesh and blood, and the unlucky ones were even smashed into a puddle of flesh. mud.
"help me……"
A monk whose body was half shattered by a giant arrow let out a weak cry.
However, before the people next to him could rescue him, they saw him twitch and then became silent again.
Such things are happening in every section of the city.
Such a tragic scene caused everyone's momentum to stagnate, and fewer and fewer people dared to take the lead.
Seeing the enemy troops getting closer and closer, the generals of the Xuantian Alliance couldn't help but show a hint of anxiety.
If this section fails to suppress the enemy's momentum, then the next close-quarters bloody battle will not be optimistic.
Just when the situation was getting worse, a figure in silver armor suddenly jumped out, braving the sky full of artillery fire, like a human-shaped fort, using a silver moon bow to shoot at the enemy's crossbow position in the distance. .
That person was Lu Yu. At this time, his armor's buffs were fully activated, his blood had already been aroused, and the power of the Silver Moon Bow and arrows was no less powerful than a continuous heavy crossbow.
For a time, many crossbow gunners in the enemy's crossbow position were caught off guard and were pierced by arrows one after another.
"Is that the master of the Xianyuan Pavilion? Is he stupid?"
The monks from various nearby sects were shocked when they saw this scene.
At this time, only the Soul Transformation monk dared to be exposed, the rest of the monks were hiding in bunkers, and he, a Nascent Soul monk, dared to jump out of the protective wall. It was like seeking death!
Many people showed a touch of pity for the silver-armored figure.
They felt that the other party would be killed only in the next moment.
Although they were hiding in the protective wall, they were not afraid of fighting, they just didn't want to make unnecessary sacrifices. After all, the opponent's artillery fire was obviously much stronger this time, and they planned to wait for the formal engagement before leaping out to kill the enemy.
Even Lin Qingxue frowned secretly when she looked at this scene.
The master of the Xianyuan Pavilion is actually a brave and foolhardy person who relies on his will to act?
However, what surprised them was that the silver-armored figure shuttled nimbly between the gunfire, changing places every time it fired an arrow, and was never hit by the arrow.
As more and more Qianlong crossbow gunners were killed, many people in the Qianlong army finally noticed the movement here. For a time, countless arrows rushed towards the silver-armored figure, and the arrows shot by the silver-armored figure The arrows were also blocked and knocked away by high-level Qianlong monks one after another.
However, Lu Yu had already expected this. While he was moving in a flash, he began to simulate at high speed, frequently firing two lightning strikes.
Often, as soon as an arrow was knocked away by a high-level monk, the next arrow followed immediately. Before the high-level monk had time to defend himself, the crossbowman who was being protected behind him would be pierced through again.
As for the elite crossbow gunners who were protected by full-scale battle armor, they were first blown out of the way by one arrow, and then the second arrow took advantage of the gap to directly hit their heads.
For a moment, the enemy's ballista camp screamed again and again, and the firepower of the arrow and spirit cannon suddenly stalled.
"Is this person really a weapon refiner?"
"Isn't it too fierce?"
The nearby monks couldn't help but secretly gasp.
Lin Qingxue was even more stunned.
Stimulated by this scene, more and more hot-blooded monks finally no longer feared, and they once again risked their lives, setting up their giant crossbows, and fighting back crazily.
Under the ebb and flow of one another, Xuantian's firepower once again regained the advantage.
Then the enemy camp screamed again and again, and the forward momentum was greatly reduced.
"Elite troops! Attack!" Seeing this, General Qianlong gritted his teeth and roared again.
The next moment, there was a commotion in the enemy camp. Figures riding flying monsters rose into the air, turning and flying in the air with unusual dexterity, avoiding giant crossbows, and quickly flew towards the city.
And on the ground, a large number of giant ferocious beasts wearing heavy armor and iron chains suddenly appeared, carrying elite monks one after another and striding towards the pass.
Ordinary giant crossbow arrows hit these steel-like beasts, just like scratching an itch, unable to cause much damage at all.
What's even more exaggerated is that several huge black iron ships with extremely strong defense suddenly appeared in the sky, carrying a large number of elites. They ignored the arrows in the sky and pressed straight towards the city wall.
The runes on these giant black iron ships were flashing, and rows of giant crossbows and spiritual cannons flashed with cold light, firing in the direction of the city wall, like moving fortress-shaped forts.
As soon as this group of elites appeared, Xuantian monks immediately panicked and felt powerless.
Even if the arrows hit the opponent, these elites are as defensive as iron barrels and cannot be hurt at all.
Attracted by the firepower of Qianlong's elite, the resistance of the remaining monks was greatly reduced. Before long, they had rushed to less than a mile away from the city wall.
"Explosive bombs! Shoot!" General Xuantian suddenly shouted.
I saw huge missiles covered with spikes, suddenly shot out from behind the city wall, and smashed straight towards the front of the city wall not far away.
boom! boom! boom!
As soon as these giant missiles touched the ground, they released a series of shocking explosions. For a moment, the giant missiles turned into countless indestructible spikes and shot out in all directions.
puff! puff! puff!
Although the Hidden Dragon cultivators surrounding the missile tried their best to dodge and resist, they were still hit by flying spikes from everywhere, piercing through their armor and causing either death or injury.
This is clearly the weapon of mass destruction recently developed by Xuantian Continent.
Unfortunately, the missile was huge and had a short range. It only had time to fire one round before the enemy troops swarmed onto the city.
At this time, the two armies finally began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
In order to prevent accidental damage, both sides' long-range ballistae attacks invariably stopped bombing near the city wall and replaced them with archers shooting spiritual arrows at close range.
So a monk named Xuantian jumped out from behind the protective wall and fought hard with the Qianlong enemy.
As for the difficult enemy generals, they were all blocked by the commander of the transformed gods flying forward one by one.
At this time, Leng Feng and others also jumped out from the protective wall, formed a battle formation, and fought hard while dodging arrows.
It wasn't that they didn't want to show off before, but they were sternly ordered to stop by the young master.
So they all held their breath in their hearts, slashed out with their swords, and killed without mercy.
After the Hidden Dragon Blood Warriors swarmed to the top of the city, they transformed one by one, as fast as the wind, holding large shields, and rushed towards everyone without fear of death.
Their whole bodies were blocked behind shields, and they had multiple armor defenses on their bodies. They were like small mobile steel fortresses, running rampant.
Moreover, they were extremely powerful. As soon as the Xuantian cultivator approached, they hit him with a stick and his armor was dented, and his whole body flew backwards in an instant.
