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
"That guy Li Ye and I have a grudge. This time, he and I join forces to attack Tongguan. Will he cause me trouble because of the grudge?" Li Keyong asked Monk Huiming nearby. He was riding on the horse with hundreds of his trusted soldiers. Looking at the Pinglu Army's barracks far away, he looked worried. Monk Huiming said without expression, "Prince An has ever beaten you in Huangli County, so can you forget this grudge?" When he recalled the past, Li Keyong was angry. As Monk Huiming spoke out the matter directly, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could dig a hole and hide in it. However, this was what Huiming's character was, so it was impossible for him to beat around the bush. He described it euphemistically as a "monk should not lie". But, in Li Keyong's view, it had nothing to do with telling a truth or a lie. Obviously, it was because he had no scruples. However, Huiming had saved his life before, so Li Keyong was thankful to
