One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 143
The soldiers of Guo Xin's infantry battalion either held heavy swords in both hands, or had swords in the right and shields in the left.

Such a troop being pulled to the top of the city means that the battle is tight, and the attacking party may ascend the city at any time.

Song Yun followed Guo Xin to the top of the city, and he could immediately see the tension of the battle.

A rain of arrows kept rising in the sky, some shot down, and some shot towards the top of the city, like black clouds interlacing back and forth.

"Take the arrow, draw the bow, set it, let it go!"

In the sound of the call signs, the archers in the North Court stood in an array and launched a volley in a uniform manner, with a coherent rhythm and an orderly manner.

However, they fell into a disadvantage in the confrontation. Even though there were various bunkers, people were still injured by arrows shot from outside the city from time to time.

Song Yun walked a few steps towards the female wall, poked his head out and looked outside, and then understood the reason for the unfavorable situation of the battle——

There are too many enemies, densely packed, surrounding the city like a colony of ants, it is estimated that there are at least [-] people!
Generally, ten times the amount of siege is more than enough. Now there are less than [-] Beiting troops in the city, and the attacking party has a numerical advantage of more than [-] times.

Moreover, the opponent's siege equipment is very complete, there are already temporary archery towers set up, there are also a lot of high-throwing ballistas, and one after another can even be seen being assembled.

Song Yun swung his knife aside an arrow that was shot in front of him, retreated, and said to Guo Xin, "Where did your main force go? Is there still time to come back?"

Guo Xin shook his head helplessly: "They dispatched secretly in several ways to attack the people of the Northern Plains. I didn't expect that the news got out."

"I read the battle report just now, and it turns out that the coalition forces of Yue, Sheng and Jing are attacking Anxi!"

"The three countries in the Northwest have always been at odds with each other. I didn't expect that this time they would abandon their previous suspicions and choose to join forces. This is also something we did not expect."

"They have a large number of people, many masters have come, they have surrounded Anxi tightly, and not a single letter for help has been sent out."

"Now we can only wait for other troops to discover the anomaly and come to support."

Guo Xin looked dignified, this will be an extremely difficult battle to defend the city!
The soldiers of the infantry battalion under his command also became nervous.

Song Yun said in relief: "The smoke of the wolf has already risen. If you stick to it for a few days, you will naturally come to help. I will help during this time, so don't worry."

After hearing this, Guo Xin hurriedly thanked him: "Then I will leave it to Deputy Captain Song."

With a peak innate master to help out, the pressure on the rifle battalion can be much less.

Now that the battle is fierce, Guo Xin doesn't care about Song Yun's "secret mission" in order to protect his subordinates.

Song Yun glanced at Li Mu who was sweating profusely again, and said with a smile, "Don't panic, you won't die with me here."

Li Mu hurriedly said: "I'm not afraid! I'm waiting for the battle!"

Song Yun was noncommittal, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the arrow that fell from the sky.

The arrow almost hit Li Mu's face, and the young pawn almost jumped up in shock.

When he came back to his senses, he looked at Song Yun with some embarrassment, "Thank you, Lieutenant."

"Be careful."

Song Yun walked to the outside of the city wall, looked around, and observed the progress of the battle.

At this time, the archers at the top of the city were shot and retreated steadily.

The crossbowmen who are in charge of manipulating the large bed crossbow are also under great pressure.

It turned out that there was an innate master of javelins at the foot of the city, who rode a fast horse, rushed to the front from time to time, and slammed a javelin at him.

This kind of javelin is hard and sharp, and it is so powerful that it can't even block the shield, and directly pierces the bed crossbow.

Every time he succeeds, the innate master laughs triumphantly and gallops back to the team, while the nearby enemy troops also let out arrogant cries.

This kind of behavior had a great impact on the morale of the Beiting army, and it was difficult for the crossbowmen who manipulated the bed crossbow to concentrate.

Seeing this, Song Yun was furious, and said directly: "I'll kill this guy!"

An officer next to him shook his head and said, "It's too difficult to kill. This guy is wearing heavy armor and his horse runs fast. He is not afraid of arrows."

"I don't need arrows." Song Yun lowered his head and glanced around, and quickly found the weapon he needed——

A row of stones placed in the corner.

This kind of stone is like a large watermelon, it is very heavy, and usually two soldiers join hands to hold it up and throw it towards the bottom of the city wall to hit the enemies who are climbing the city.

Song Yun walked over and lifted a stone with one hand.

Seeing the surprised eyes of the soldiers around him, he also felt that throwing stones with one hand was too exaggerated, so he switched to two hands.

Pretending to be blushing, he shouted, "doing his best" and threw the stone out.

The heavy stone soared into the sky like a meteor, crossed an arc, and then fell down precisely.

Under the city, the master who was good at wielding javelins had just destroyed a bed crossbow, and immediately turned his horse's head and rushed back to the formation, very vigilant.

Soon they were away from the city wall of Anxi.

I thought it was safe, but I heard the soldiers in front exclaiming in surprise, and the howling of strong wind rang in my ears.

The master suddenly felt something was wrong, and looked back, his eyes went dark, and a huge boulder fell on his head.

His head was the first to bear the brunt, and was directly smashed into the chest cavity, and blood spurted wildly from the gap in the armor.

The sharp stone continued to fall, smashing the master and his horse into a pulp.

Wearing heavy armor is useless, the heavy stones and the terrifying power falling from the sky, even the iron man will be smashed to pieces!

thump.

The stone fell into the pile of meat and made a muffled sound, like a heavy drum, hitting the hearts of all the enemy soldiers.

The enemy army under the city was still shouting loudly and insulting the Beiting army just now, but when they saw this scene, everyone fell silent instantly.

A general rushed to the front of the formation and was shocked and angry when he saw this mass of flesh and blood, "What's going on? Why are there still catapults in Anxi City?"

A sharp-eyed officer stretched out his trembling right hand, pointed at the top of the wall and said, "No, it's not a catapult, someone threw it down!"

"Throwing stones with your hands?" The general was also dumbfounded.

There was a commotion in the army formation, and soon a grandmaster general was found.

Knowing this situation, the grand master warrior couldn't help but stare: "With my arm strength, it's not difficult to do it, but it's too exhausting! And it can't guarantee a hit."

"However, the real contact battle has not yet begun. No matter who makes the shot, if you exhaust your physical strength first, you will be courting death!"

"You don't have to worry too much, that guy can't throw a few times."

All the officers nodded, which was also in line with their perception.

Although a master is strong, he must cherish his physical strength and use his strength in battles at the same level.

The officers quickly dispersed and continued to direct the battle.

Although he wasn't too panicked, his morale dropped a lot after being teased like this, and no martial arts master dared to show off his skills anymore.

At the top of the city, Song Yun noticed the shocking gazes of the people around him, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It's nothing unusual to be born with supernatural power."

"Innate divine power is not so exaggerated, is it? A stone weighing two hundred catties can be thrown five or six hundred feet away, and it can still hit the target accurately. What kind of strength does this have? What kind of control?"

Anyone who has practiced martial arts knows the difficulty of this move, and the look of horror can hardly be concealed on his face.
