The watchtower was higher than the city wall, so Li Ye could see the battle clearly and it was convenient for Li Ye to seize the opportunity to dispatch troops.
Camps were behind the watchtower and a hundred thousand troops were arrayed neatly in front of the watchtower. Of course, there were only about fifty thousand soldiers outside Li Ye's city wall, but they were spread out over a large area, covering the surrounding area of hundreds of meters. Looking over the city wall, Li Ye could also see the military formation at the other end.
Before the three-sided military formation, Dengzhou seemed very small, like an island in the sea.
The formation was arranged with careful consideration. The small formations of the infantry made up the big formation and the cavalry guards on both sides of the big formation interconnected with each other, eventually forming a sea of armor.
There were big passages in the big formation and small pa
These suicide soldiers could form a barrier with five people, even the Warrior Masters could do nothing about it. If there were a dozen or so soldiers and they formed three or four Military Barriers that could back each other up in the battle, even Level 1 Qi-refining practitioners dared not to take them head on. Because once they became entangled, death awaited them. Shangguan Qingcheng's eyes were cold, she knew that she couldn't let the Dengzhou Suicide Soldiers charge. Because if there were even a moment's delay, then many Deng Zhou elites would charge up from behind them. By then the city wall would be firmly controlled by the Dengzhou army. A number of imperial guards were being killed by the other side. Two of them were killed by the blade. Then Shangguan Qingcheng passed by the imperial guards, with her silver spear sharp like an arrow, she headed straight for the Northern Zhou Suicide Soldiers! "Defend!" Since the Dengzhou Suicide S
Within Dengzhou City, Zhu Wen sat in the room and silently buried himself. Moments later, a guard came in and reported, "General, all the general officers have arrived. They're all waiting for you to host the military meeting." Zhu Wen waved his hand and said, "Let them wait!" When the guard saw Zhu Wen's bitter expression, he dared not say anything and quickly clasped his fist in his hand and backed off. Zhu Wen's expression was not exactly bad, but it sure wasn't great. The battle to defend the city the past few days had, for a time, placed Dengzhou in crisis. They were almost breached by the imperial army. If it weren't for his strategic dispatchment of his troops, sending the Xiao Yong Sect to block the gap, and the cultivator group composed of the Zhongnan Mountain Taoists to put the fire out everywhere, Dengzhou City would've had been breached by the imperial army. And he would not by sitting here safely now.
"Shoot arrows!" "Shoot arrows!" The generals on top of the city wall shouted, shaking uncontrollably. Against waves of arrows, the tide of armor finally reached beneath the city wall. With ladders leaning against the city wall, the soldiers climbed up holding round shields while the generals shouted and conducted everywhere. "Go!" "Rush with me!" "Kill!" "Don't f*cking stand motionless. Hurry up!" "If you don't want to be shot to death beneath the city wall, then climb up!" "We can fight to the death, but we must die on top of the city wall!" After a few days' consumption, there were no rolling stones or wood and molten iron on top of the city wall. The iron nail planks were almost all damaged and even the arrows were almost running out. The threat to the official troops was no longer so severe that some soldiers soon climbed up to the top of th
Seeing Zhu Wen going far away, Li Ye frowned slightly. Immediately, he felt that a master in the Spiritual Master Realm appeared. He looked far away and didn't intend to go out to chase after him. He didn't know how many cultivators there were in the Spiritual Master Realm of Zhongnan Mountain. If the two people joined forces, he couldn't fight against them. But since he had occupied Dengzhou, Li Ye didn't feel like raising new issues. Zhu Wen had the great luck to become an emperor, so Li Ye couldn't easily kill him as he wanted. At present, he shouldn't only focus on Zhu Wen. In the afternoon that day, the battle was declared to be over. Before sunset, the city gradually became quiet and order was restored. Even though some of Zhu Wen's troops were still resisting desperately, they couldn't make any trouble facing the official troops. Zhu Wen had fifty thousand soldiers, but over ten thousand of them were dead.
Looking back, Zhu Wen saw Prime Minister Shang Rang, so he hurriedly saluted to him. After Huang Chao established the Qi Empire, he appointed four Prime Ministers. Shang Rang was undoubtedly the head of them and was deeply trusted by Huang Chao. Otherwise, it was impossible for Huang Chao to let him lead the troops to attack Zheng Tian in Fengxiang several times. That was because Shang Rang was Shang Junchang's junior brother. Shang Junchang was Wang Xianzhi's general. After Wang Xianzhi was persuaded to surrender by Yang Fuguang, he was dispatched by Wang Xianzhi to negotiate with the official troops. But in the end, he was killed. Shang Junchang died unjustly, so Shang Rang hated the Tang Empire very much. He was one of those who were the least likely to surrender to the Tang Empire and he was good at leading troops to fight on the battlefield, so Huang Chao valued him. Facing such a figure, Zhu Wen had no reason not to be respectful. It w
The messenger-guard obeyed the order. He then turned and flew off to immediately to convey the order quickly. Moments later, the attacking side suddenly sped up their pace. A bunch of high level-cultivation warriors headed the attack. The Xi Chuan Sect's military formation that was blocking them had quickly been broken. Seeing this scene, Tian Lingzi finally showed a smile and said, "Now that is what I'm talking about." Prime Minister Chen Jingxuan was standing beside Tian Lingzi. He silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he saw Tian Lingzi's eyes. He was full of fear. After Tian Lingzi's protected Li Yan to Chengdu, he had made quite a few thunderous maneuvers. He wanted to quickly gain control of Xi Chuan and cease both political and military power. With his first maneuver, Tian Lingzi got cozy with the head of the Xi Chuan civil officer, Chen Jingxuan. After gaining his trust, he petitioned for Li Y
It seemed that Huiming did not notice Li Keyong's agitation. He replied calmly, "Because Wang Duo has gained control of military power and has already left Sichuan." "Wang Duo?" Li Keyong was taken aback by his words, "He's just a civil officer, not indifferent to Zheng Tian. So even with military control, how could he make a difference in the situation?" "He certainly could," answered Huiming. His answer was unusually short. Li Keyong asked in a deep voice, "And how so?" Huiming replied, "Because Wang Duo is a loyal officer." Li Keyong continued to ask, "And loyal officers could win wars? How?" Huiming answered, "Loyal officers might not win wars per se, but they could give the talented patriotic men a chance to make a name for themselves on the battlefield." Li Keyong tightened his eyebrows for a second and soon realized what Huiming had meant. "So you're saying Wang Duo could give me
- Staring at the woman, Zhu Wen hurriedly asked, "Are you the daughter of the former Songzhou Inspector General?" Raising her head, the woman barely glanced at Zhu Wen and said yes to him. Zhu Wen was overjoyed. He quickly supported her to sit down and waved everyone off. The generals didn't figure it out, but they didn't ask anything as they saw Zhu Wen's expression, so they left with suspicion. They also took away the rest of the women as they left. The woman did not dare to sit down, trembling with fear like a frightened little elk. With her face full of tears, she looked at Zhu Wen in fear. Seeing the look on her face, Zhu Wen hurriedly explained, "Don't be afraid. You and I are the fellow-townsmen. The sudden disaster of the war must have frightened you a great deal, but you don't need to worry about it anymore, as you've come to my place. I'm here, so no one can hurt you!" While saying that, Zhu Wen immediat
Seeing the steep appearance of the black rhinoceros elite cavalry of the Returning Righteousness Army, Buddha Zi was already very shocked, and when he realized that a large swathe of cultivators were in black, stepping on the rolling yellow sands and rolling towards Yangguan, his eyes were about to stare out.He knew that Dunhuang's Returning Righteousness Army, could possibly support Yangguan, but those 5,000 light cavalry yesterday afternoon were already the limit of the troops he thought Zhang Huaishen could mobilize.The reason why he was so sure of this was because before initiating the Battle of Yangguan, the Sect of Release had already secretly contacted Sohun and said that they would work together inside and outside.Originally, this matter seemed redundant to Buddha Zi, who didn't think that the tiny Yang Guan, with a mere 10,000 generals, could hold back his army of 50,000 cultivators. In Buddha Zi's view, this is completely flat to give Suo Xun a rich an
The remaining sun was like blood, but it spread a layer of golden radiance to the inside and outside of the Yangguan.Off the wall below has been a bloody piece, almost can not see the rammed earth and yellow sand, not to mention the flow of blood in the body, only hanging in the female wall of broken limbs, broken everywhere in the bowels of the intestines, doubly so shocking. With this layer of gold rendering, even showed a few points of holy meaning.It was a pity that the sun set in the twinkling of an eye, and when countless fires appeared inside and outside of the Pass Wall, the bursting aura light clusters, flashing sword aura blade lights, overflowing colorful auras, and countless warriors running and fighting in either bright or dark light, with shadows and shapes like ghosts, set off the dilapidated and majestic Pass City as a ghost city.Li Ye knew the battle wouldn't last much longer.The monk regiment has been killed and wounded more than half, t
The reason why he told Suo Zhang's this, Suo Xun's purpose was clear to gain his wife's understanding and support. After all, Suo Zhang was Zhang Yichao's daughter, and her prestige among the Zhang family members was not low.This is something that Sohun has been doing all along and has basically been confirmed, if not, he wouldn't be telling his wife this right now, but would have imprisoned her instead. To emphasize it again right now as the big event is being unleashed will help to strengthen his wife's morale.Putting on his armor, Sohun came to the council chamber.The dignified subordinates and staff in the residence had already waited for many things, and his close generals in the army, including some of the Guazhou-based Returned Army Provisioners Great Cultivators of the Real Life Realm had also been notified to rush over.Launching a mutiny and mastering the Returning Righteous Army was a major event that Suo Xun had been planning and preparing for
Seeing that the Buddha son had gone berserk, the monks began to attack Yangguan regardless of the casualties, countless cultivators of the high qi practicing stage swooped down to the place where the turquoise blue star feathers were emanating from, and Zhang Huaishen went to work with arranging for the good fighters in the Returning Righteousness Army to start a battle-within-a-battle with the opposing side around the magic weapon bed and crossbow formations after he had reported a word to Li Ye."The magic weapon bed crossbow is indeed an unrivaled weapon in the sand, if the number can be doubled, the range will be able to cross-cover all the open space in front of the pass, and as far as defending the city is concerned, the Tang army can be invincible. This kind of artifact, is really unbelievable!" Chu Nanhuai was overwhelmed with emotion.This statement of his kept the crowd nodding.Li Ye, however, did not comment.No matter what kind of world, the impr
Seeing Zhang Huaishen and the great cultivators behind him, the Ming King immediately changed his face and screamed out in a dark voice, all of a sudden his fighting spirit was completely gone and he drew himself up and was about to fly away, while at the same time shouting sharply to the other Vajra Realm great cultivators, "Stop him!"Li Ye would not let him have his way, activating his Step by Step Sword Style to cut down the several Vajra Realm members in his way, and unfolding his stance to hurriedly chase after the Ming King.Some of the surrounding Vajra Realms were confronted head-on by Zhang Huai Shen and the others, and had no choice but to catch and fight with them, while the other part hurriedly chased after Li Ye from the two flanks in order to cope with the Ming King.Seeing that there were still two Vajra Realm high ranks in front of him blocking the way, and that the Ming King was fleeing so fast that he was about to arrive behind the Monk Corps For
Li Ye's aura had been consumed so much that he was left with 30% to 40% of it, and if the Sect of Release was ruthless, he would only have enough to sustain a battle.But the truth was, he couldn't spell out all of his aura, or else there wouldn't even be any room for him to get away.The situation was already very difficult at this point, and Li Ye was still about to face the situation of being at the end of his rope no matter how much he saved.Thinking about it, the next battle could only focus on relying on the power of the magic weapon bed crossbow.With this in mind, he called Peng Zushan over and asked him if he could further refine the use of the magic weapon bed crossbow to make it more useful.Peng Zushan said bitterly, "Your Highness, not to mention boosting the power of the magecraft bed crossbows, it's good that they can still be used in the next battle. In this battle just now, two of the ten mana bed crossbows broke, one was destroyed by
Quantitatively speaking, the deaths and injuries of thousands of monk soldiers did not have an essential impact on the monk corps, at least the white sea of them running towards the Yang Pass wall once again was still so turbulent and surging that they could not be seen at a glance.Between battles, Peng Zushan ran up to Li Ye, red-faced and stammering, and asked if King An could repel a few more attacks from the thief vultures if he had the chance, so that they could do a few more siege impacts, and the magical weapon bed crossbows on the barrier wall, and the various magical weapon bows that they had modified, would be able to play a greater role.Because the magic weapon bed crossbow had just been equipped, their previous estimation of the power and range of the bow was inadequate, the placement was flawed, and there were shortcomings in the crossbow's cross-coverage, leaving room for improvement in the lethality inflicted on large-scale siege armies.Now after
As soon as the sword style was activated, Li Ye's figure disappeared into thin air, and the thirty-odd Vajra Realm members simultaneously felt a chill go straight to their heads, as if they were falling into an abyss. That was the sign of extreme danger descending, and they couldn't help but all change their colors drastically.The leader of the monks just roared "disperse", just to see in front of the companions of several people neck blood spray, round head spinning flying into mid-air, no matter how hard the following words, can not say a word.Suddenly he found his vision spinning in the sky, as towering towers, crumbling walls, tidal waves of monks, blue skies, and even a white-gold sun slipped past his eyes one after another. Finally his sight returned to his companions, and he saw that they were looking at him in the same way that he had looked at the monks whose heads were suddenly flying across the room.Steeply, he noticed that a headless body that was be
The siege began suddenly, 50,000 monks and soldiers holding Zen staffs, dharma swords, shields and other blades and weapons, the rising tide of the sea like a violent sweep towards the pass; the siege began logically, because they had gathered outside the pass for a long enough time, and the generals and soldiers of the army of the Returning Righteousness at the head of the pass had long since finished preparing for the battle.Long days of winter sunshine, the four fields of sunshine, rolling smoke and dust at the feet of the monks and soldiers who could not see the edge of the sea, wave after wave tumbling up, this is the yellow sea of mud and sand, without half an exaggeration.The gateway trembled, a fine dust swirled up half an inch from the rammed earth walls, and a wisp of fine sand poured down.In the trembling is not only the Yangguan, the land outside the same, neat footsteps over the sound of war drums, as if a burst of thunder, Wood a face will be throu
