Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 118 You come and go, the battle of summoning

There is a saying in the annals of the Three Kingdoms that attacking the heart is the top and attacking the city is the bottom.

Siege is a war of last resort, because for the attacker, it takes a lot of money to capture a city with strong defenses.

The price may be time, it may be life, or both.

If possible, Su Yuan didn't want to attack the city, but it was obvious that everything in this world couldn't be in line with his wishes.

The big stone hit the city wall, immediately kicking up a cloud of mud and dust, accompanied by the screams of several soldiers defending the city.

Even if this kind of big rock didn't directly hit the person, but the broken rocks splashed on the person, the damage caused was considerable.

But it is definitely impossible to destroy the city with dozens of catapults.

Su Yuan also just wanted to strike first, to dampen the morale of the soldiers defending the city.

"Quick, let go of the arrows!"

The general on the city wall commanded.

Bai Shiquan stood aside. Although he led the disciples of the Beggar Clan, he did not have command authority.This point has been written in the imperial decree, and he still needs to listen to the command of General Chuancheng.

rustle!rustle!
A large number of feathered arrows fell from the city wall. Because of the throwing, the distance was longer, and they could slightly cover Su Yuan's army.

But because Su Yuan's soldiers were fully armored and raised their shields, they basically didn't suffer any damage.Occasionally, it will be healed immediately by the holy priest.

Soon, the stones of the catapult were almost used up. Although the defenders of Chuancheng were killed by many people, they did not give up their defense at all.

Su Yuan thought to himself, is it necessary to forcibly attack the city?

In order to pursue speed in this march, he did not carry siege equipment.

In other words, there are no such things as siege engines, wooden mantles, and ladders.

In this case, forcibly attacking the city, you can only use human power to lift the log to hit the city gate, trying to break the gate open.

With this stupid method, I don't know how long it will take to break through. Besides, during this process, the defenders on the city wall can easily cause mass destruction to the Bei'an army below.

It is impossible for Su Yuan to adopt this kind of offensive method of giving away heads for nothing.

"My lord." Zhao Yun also said at this moment, "The enemy is determined to defend the city. I am afraid that they will suffer heavy losses if they attack the city by force."

Su Yuan knew this in his heart, if it was a small city, then Zhao Yun could solve the battle by rushing up the city wall.

But above this city, there are master level masters, besides that master, there are not many masters around... In this situation, it is too dangerous for Zhao Yun to climb the city wall alone.

Just retreat?Go back and bring the siege equipment again...

Su Yuan was not very reconciled.

Or wait for the Qingzhou soldiers from behind to come and let them be cannon fodder in front, consuming a wave of enemy's bows, arrows, stones, kerosene and other defensive weapons?
This is a bit too inhuman...

Su Yuan didn't want to use people as cannon fodder, but otherwise, how could he break the situation now?
"We still have to start by summoning soldiers..."

He looked at the soldiers in the soldier talisman. Some of the soldiers who have not been summoned yet, as well as those Xiliang iron cavalry who were poisoned by Jia San, are still in the soldier talisman.

Su Yuan has no solution to their poison at present, and can only wait to see if he can find a pharmacist who is good at detoxification.

In addition to these, there are a hundred undead wizards who can be summoned.

Undead wizard?
When Su Yuan saw them, his eyes lit up.

If relying on them to create chaos and make the enemy panic, can the siege go smoothly?
Su Yuan himself had teased himself before, saying that the last two summons made him go from being crushed by explosive soldiers to being a trickster.

Then why not make use of pretending to be a ghost now.

As soon as Su Yuan thought of this, he immediately planned to try it.

He summoned the undead wizards, gave them orders through soldier charms, cast spells on the corpses of enemy soldiers who were killed by catapults on the city wall, and created skeleton soldiers.

However, he got a "casting distance too far" feedback.

"It turns out that it is too far away, it must be within 50 meters..."

At present, in order to maintain a safe distance, the Bei'an army is about 200 meters away from the city wall. If they advance further, they will completely enter the bow and arrow coverage of the city wall guards.

But if you don't advance, the casting distance is not enough.

"Raise your shield!"

He still decided to move forward, time was running out, and he didn't want to waste any chance.

The soldiers raised their shields and pushed forward.

Several generals on the city wall, including Baishiquan, were overjoyed when they saw it.

"Haha, you don't even have a ladder, and you still want to attack the city? How stupid! Courting death!"

"Quick! The archers shoot their arrows!"

For a while, arrows rained down, and soldiers of the Bei'an Army also shot back through the gaps in the shields.

Under the dense rain of arrows, it is inevitable that some soldiers will be injured, but the advantage of having a nurse on Su Yuan's side is reflected.

"Cheer up, my boy!"

"Keep fighting, I will help you!"

"Don't be afraid to bleed, the light will heal you!"

Holy priests cast healing rays to heal soldiers wounded by arrows.

This burst of milky white light erupted in the army, and it was naturally seen by the soldiers and generals on the city wall.

"what is that?!"

"Look...the one who was hit by the arrow, why did he get up again?!"

"This... I heard that Su Yuan knows sorcery, could it be..."

The effect of the Healing Light was astonishing, shaking many defenders in an instant.

Not only the soldiers, but even the generals were surprised and even scared.

"Hmph, it's just a mere strange art, what's so scary!" Bai Shiquan shouted loudly at this time.

His voice was full of spirit, which slightly soothed the flustered hearts of the soldiers.

But the other masters of the Beggar Gang on the city wall had different expressions.

Mere strange art?

Their martial arts realm may not be as good as Bai Shiquan's, but they can also see that it is by no means a mere strange art.

As for what it is, they don't know.

Could it be a strange martial art that has never been seen before?But the problem is... no matter how low the threshold is for martial arts, not so many people will learn it.

And the martial arts that can create "color" are by no means low-threshold martial arts, more like advanced martial arts that can only be mastered in the innate realm.

Could it be that Su Yuan has so many innate masters under his command?

how is this possible……

If you really want to do that, what kind of army is needed, and you can push these masters together.

Everyone can't figure it out, can't figure it out.

In fact, Bai Shiquan himself didn't have a clue, but at this moment, something happened that made him even more incomprehensible.

I saw streaks of yellow light erupting from the crowd again, visible to the naked eye. After the yellow light appeared, the soldiers of the Beian Army moved much faster!
They were already running forward, but after being amplified by the yellow light, it was as if they were flying!
"This?!"

Even Bai Shiquan was a little confused now.

Su Yuan asked the holy priests to use the swift light, and the soldiers who doubled their speed naturally ran fast.

Originally, he wanted to rush under the city wall, but at least he would have to suffer seven or eight rounds of arrow rain.But after speeding up, the Bei'an Army narrowed the distance to the city wall to 50 meters in less than four rounds of arrow rain.

At this distance, the undead wizard can already cast spells.

"Summon!"

Su Yuan gave an order, and a hundred undead wizards raised their sheep-head staffs together, and uttered incomprehensible incantations.

Immediately afterwards, a horrifying and terrifying scene appeared from the city wall.

The corpses of the guards who had been shot to death on the wall by the Bei'an army's bows and arrows before they could be carried away suddenly trembled.

Under the fearful gaze of the surrounding people, skeletons climbed up from the corpse one by one.

"what!!!!"

"Ghost!!!!"

"Ugh! There are ghosts!!!"

The soldiers defending the city wall were all terrified. Some people rolled their eyes and fainted because of excessive fear and the psychological pressure of war.

Some people's expressions became distorted in fright, and more people threw down their weapons and turned around to run, for fear of falling behind and being dragged into some eighteenth floor of hell by the skeleton ghost.

Not to mention the soldiers and generals, even the masters of the Beggar Gang such as Bai Shiquan were frightened.

But they were martial arts masters, so they calmed down quickly. Bai Shiquan looked at the skeleton soldiers, roared angrily, and swung out his palm.

The maroon true essence was like a long rainbow, bombarding several skeleton soldiers.

With a sound of "click", more than a dozen skeleton soldiers were directly blasted away, shattered into a pile of bones and slag on the ground.

"Look carefully! This is not a ghost!"

Bai Shiquan roared.

How can a ghost be smashed by a palm?This is just a magic trick!
But the soldiers didn't listen to it. They saw the skeleton crawling out of the corpses of their comrades.

Seeing that no one listened to what he said, Bai Shiquan was also anxious, and hurriedly greeted the elders of the beggar gang: "Hurry up and destroy these bones!"

"Yes, helper!"

The elders have already discovered at this moment that this little skeleton soldier is scary, but he has no fighting power. With their martial arts, they smashed all the skeletons into pieces with three punches and two kicks.

Bai Shiquan turned his head to look, and saw that the general in charge of commanding the defensive operations was paralyzed on the ground at the moment, muttering about "the soul is back", "black and white are impermanent", obviously petrified.

He turned his head to look down the city wall again, and the Bei'an Army soldiers were building a ladder to climb up the city wall.

This made him extremely anxious.

If tens of thousands of elite soldiers are allowed to go up the city wall, even if he is a master master, he will be powerless!
The situation was urgent, Bai Shiquan didn't care about offending, he slapped the general on the face, and shouted: "Be sober! The bones that got up are all broken, the enemy is about to attack!"

The general shuddered after being hit by this blow, and finally regained his senses.

He quickly got up and found that the skeleton soldiers were all scattered, he was relieved, and began to call the soldiers to continue to defend the city.

The soldiers who had fled could not be called back, so he could only immediately transfer the soldiers who were originally under the city wall.

These rotating soldiers didn't see the skeleton soldiers with their own eyes, and they weren't so scared. After they were transferred, they started to shoot arrows and throw logs at the Bei'an soldiers who were climbing up the ladders under the city wall.

Seeing this, Su Yuan below frowned.

He didn't expect the opponent to regain his composure so quickly, which undoubtedly has something to do with those martial arts masters.

"Damn beggars..."

If they hadn't destroyed all the skeleton soldiers quickly, the morale of the defenders would have collapsed by now, and the Bei'an soldiers would have been able to climb up the city wall smoothly.

But the attack has already started now, and it cannot be easily given up halfway.

After Su Yuan waited for the skills of the undead wizards to cool down, he let them release them again.

Then another group of skeleton soldiers emerged from the city wall. Like last time, the guards who came up in rotation collapsed again and fled.

But this time, Baishiquan and others had experience. As soon as they saw the skeleton soldiers appear, they immediately shot to destroy them.The general in charge of commanding the battle immediately transferred a new round of soldiers from under the city wall to come up.

The two sides came and went, and in just seven or eight minutes, the guards on the city wall rotated four or five times.

"It can't go on like this!" the general guarding the city said to Bai Shiquan, "The soldiers who ran away shouted and screamed, and many soldiers who didn't see the bone magic were frightened, and they didn't dare to come up again!"

"The bone magic was performed by those red-robed people!" Bai Shiquan stared at the undead wizards in the Bei'an army below the city with burning eyes.

He was thoughtful and kept staring at the army under the city.

He mainly wanted to find Su Yuan, but Su Yuan's disguise was very good, and he gave orders through military talismans, so he couldn't reveal the slightest clue, so Bai Shiquan couldn't find any suspicious objects after looking for a long time.

However, after several waves of skeleton soldiers came down, he could already see clearly that the group of guys holding strange sheep-headed staffs were casting magic to create skeleton soldiers.

If they are not eliminated, skeleton soldiers will appear continuously. Even if the masters of the beggar gang can destroy them quickly, the guarding soldiers will inevitably be frightened and lose their combat effectiveness.

These hateful people in red robes must be killed!
Bai Shiquan made up his mind, he pointed out a few elders of the Beggar Clan, and said to them: "Follow me down, kill those red-robed men!"

"Yes!"

Now that the matter has come to this point, the elders dare not refuse, because the next second they refuse, they are likely to be beaten to death by Bai Shiquan.

"go!"

Baishiquan took the lead and jumped down the city wall. He clapped his palms together in the air, and two long waves erupted from his palms, like two fire dragons, devouring hundreds of Bei'an soldiers in an instant!
The master is gone!
Su Yuan in the rear saw Bai Shiquan and others jumping off the city wall, and he was unambiguous, and immediately gave the order through the soldier talisman.

"Undead wizards, stop summoning skeletons! Collectively use 'cripple' skills on those who jumped off the wall!"

The undead wizard has a total of three skills, which are "resurrection of the dead", "fanaticism" and "crippled".

Among them, the "disabled" ability is to reduce the target's movement speed.

It doesn't matter whether you use this skill or not against minions, but against these martial arts masters, this skill will undoubtedly come in handy!
After receiving the order, the undead wizards collectively switched targets and used disabled skills.

I saw streams of black resentment emanating from the staff, flying towards the masters headed by Bai Shiquan.

A few people were shocked, and immediately used real energy or inner energy to protect the body, but it was useless.The black resentment directly entangled them, and for a moment they felt their body movements sluggish, and their feet felt uncomfortable as if they were stepping into a ball of mud.

This is not over yet, Su Yuan commanded the holy priests to use the swift light on the summoned soldiers around them, and let them surround them.

General Zhao Yun was naturally blessed with the Light of Swiftness.

With the blessing of double speed, he rushed towards him like a flash of white light, piercing the chest of an elder of the beggar gang who had no time to react!
"die!"
