Chapter 99: Furious

Late at night on June 29th, the sky was covered with clouds, the stars and moon were dim, and it was extremely hot and muggy. No matter whether it was the Jiange or the army camp not far ahead, there was no light at all. Even if ordinary people used their eyesight enough, they could not see the light.

I could only barely see the vague black shadow in the distance.

Under such conditions, groups of infantry carefully retreated from the foot of Guancheng to the mountain road behind. On the inside of the mountain road, there were already well-prepared Qiang cavalry with horses and armors lined up. Nine thousand cavalry almost covered the entire mountain road.

, this time, Yao Yisheng worked hard, and the result of the last time he fought against the Tengjia soldiers was undefeated, which still made him worried.

"Dong dong dong~!"

The big cowhide drum on the Jiangeguan City was beaten hard again, which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet and dark night. Suffering from the damp and stuffy weather, they were a little drowsy. The soldiers who were huddled behind the giant shield were all covered in ashes.

He immediately straightened his back and raised his giant shield and iron spear.

To be honest, they were almost numb to the Jin army's tricks. It was like this every day. The drums were beating loudly and the shouts were loud. But no attack came, which made them startled and complained endlessly.

Occasionally, the thought of throwing down their guns and shields and sneaking over to surrender in the dark would occur. However, the vigilance of the generals to guard against thieves and the personal supervision of the battle by His Majesty the Emperor made them only dare to think about it in their hearts.

Just a thought.

The drum beat continued, and mixed with the drum beat was the sound of wooden boards being put on the rack. The sergeants were already familiar with this fixed procedure. They were thinking that the dark figure would rush up and then retreat?

Just as I was looking forward to it, suddenly, the wall shield supported at the front made a deafening noise, and the thick shield covered with iron sheets suddenly exploded. Before I could make any response, I felt like

There was a sharp pain in the chest, and then the whole body was lifted into the air and hit hard against the wall shield in the back row!

Quan Quan used the last strength of his body to open his eyes and look down, only to find a huge spear as thick as an arm pierced through his chest!

'The Jin army still launched an attack...' This was the last thought of the sergeants who were hit by trampling arrows before their consciousness completely fell into darkness.

The angles of the crossbows on the four floors below Jiange City have been adjusted. Each floor takes turns firing, with six arrows fired each time. Although Yunfeng standing at the critical point cannot see the arrows fired, he can clearly see them.

A gap was quickly opened in the shield wall built by the army, and with the continuous bombardment of trampling arrows, the gap continued to extend to the rear.

"Light the fire!" Yunfeng ordered without looking back.

The guards quickly lit the bonfire set up on the city wall, and a moment later, the sky directly above their heads suddenly turned red!

Yunfeng couldn't help but look up, and saw flames nearly ten feet high bursting out from the cliff, swaying unsteadily in the dark night. Such a spectacular sight made him secretly wonder, these guys couldn't help but

Will all the kerosene bombs be ignited?

When the drums sounded, Li Xiong did not get up. The dozens of previous feints had gradually made him patient and used to it. Besides, as the Dacheng Emperor, how could he be decent without some self-cultivation?

"Yunfeng! I'm going to fuck your mother!" Li Xiong muttered bitterly, turned over, and closed his eyes again. He felt something was wrong again in a daze. There was even a hint of misery hidden in the drumbeat.

The screams and the pop of splintering wood made him suddenly startled, and he sat up straight on the couch.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened, the Jin army is coming!" Just as he sat up, the attendant shouted loudly from outside.

Li Xiong hurried to the outside of the tent and asked sternly: "How many troops are there in the Jin army?"

"This..." the attendant murmured but couldn't say anything. In fact, he didn't witness it with his own eyes. He just heard it mentioned by the generals who came to report.

"Trash!" Li Xiong was annoyed and was about to slap him, but the flashing red mass in the sky attracted his attention. When he looked up, he saw a huge fire burning on the top of the cliff, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.

, a bad premonition came to my mind.

"Armor!" Li Xiong turned around and shouted.

The attendants quickly fetched Li Xiong's special golden armor and hurriedly put it on him. At the same time, the generals who hurried over were also reporting on the situation in front of the stronghold.

After putting on the armor, Li Xiong led a group of people to the front of the stronghold quickly. At first glance, he saw that the wall shields of more than ten floors had been penetrated, and the giant arrows shot from the direction of the sword pavilion on the opposite side,

But they still roared through the passage in waves, and then were nailed to the wooden fence of the camp from a distance. As for the sergeants, they retreated on both sides in fear, and no one dared to step forward to re-establish a defensive position.

With a "clang" sound, Li Xiong pulled out his sword and said angrily: "Hurry up, go up and block the gap!"

Sergeants, you look at me and I look at you, hesitant. Just kidding, isn’t this an obvious act of seeking death?

"If you disobey orders, behead!" Li Xiong shouted again, and ordered his attendants to step forward and force the sergeants to rearrange the shield wall.

"Your Majesty, no!" Zhang Zhaocheng stopped him and said: "Your Majesty, the giant arrows were fired from in front of the pass. Although they could hit our army, they also prevented the Jin army from attacking our army. According to my humble opinion, the opponent stopped using the giant arrows.

Suppression is the time to formally attack. When the opponent stops, it is not too late for Your Majesty to order the sergeants to come forward."

Li Xiong muttered: "That's fine, just follow what the Imperial Master said."

The sergeants looked at Zhang Zhaocheng with a hint of gratitude as if they had been granted amnesty.

At this time, the attack in the direction of Jiange stopped.

After waiting for a few more breaths, Li Xiong couldn't wait to say: "Go! Hurry up and build the shield wall."

Although everyone was afraid, they had to step forward. Those who carried shields carried shields, those who buried iron spears buried iron spears, and those who placed them to resist horses. Soon, rows of shield walls were built at the gap.

.

Everyone's muscles were tense and they were staring nervously at the dark front, as if thousands of troops would rush out at any moment.

Suddenly, the front row of wall shields erupted with a loud bang, followed by sawdust flying, and several sergeants slammed into the rear row of shield walls with shrill screams.

It turned out that the cavalry they were expecting did not come, but instead they were attacked by trampling arrows.

With a "boom", a ball of anger rushed to the top of Li Xiong's head. He felt like crazy. He felt that he had been tricked. His face was extremely ferocious. The clay man also had a temperament, not to mention that he was the leader of a country.

His Majesty the Emperor suddenly said angrily: "Send the order, the entire army attacks the sword pavilion, and is not allowed to retreat even half a step!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down quickly and don't be impulsive!" Zhang Zhaocheng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Li Xiong. "Damn, this bastard is so fucking insulting!" Li Xiong ignored the dignity that a monarch should have.

I couldn't help but uttered a curse word, but this scolding made me feel a lot more comfortable.

Zhang Zhaocheng continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, the situation in the valley is unclear. Even if we send troops to attack, we have to wait until dawn. Your Majesty, please don't fall into the Jin army's trick!"

Li Xiong took a few deep breaths and shouted: "Remove the shield wall!"

The sergeants in the back row quickly threw away their iron guns, slipped out from under the shields and ran to both sides, while the shields in the front rows of walls continued to be blasted into a pile of rotten wood.

Not long after, the attack from Jiange stopped again. Li Xiong hesitated for a while and continued to order the sergeants to set up defense...
