From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 154: Four Arrows Destroy the City, Intimidate All Directions (Please Subscribe~)

The young Hou Tu instantly took a breath of cold air, subconsciously touched her ears, and then looked back in horror.

I saw an arrow stuck in the stone wall next to me, with most of its body embedded in the wall and still shaking rapidly.

"This arrow is so sharp!"

She couldn't help but feel her hair stand on end, and then she looked towards the city gate.

You can clearly see that there is a thumb-sized hole in the ten-inch steel-plated city gate, and a ray of sunlight shines in.

The soldiers nearby were frightened by the sudden arrow and were in a panic. They no longer cared about moving the bodies. They pushed and shoved the bodies on the ground until they were bloody.

"Don't lose your composure! Hold on! Hold on!"

Zhao Jiren yelled loudly, with some lingering fear in his eyes.

This is a ten-inch city gate inlaid with steel plates inside and out. It is so strong that even a master of the Qi Containment Realm would not be able to break through it in one blow.

But this ordinary arrow could actually penetrate straight through and killed more than a dozen people on the way. He had never heard of or seen such a powerful arrow!

It wasn't just the two of them. Guo Huan, who was outside, also exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the thumb-thick cave from afar.

"It really went through! Brother Wu, your arrow is truly amazing!"

Wu Fengdeng narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that this city gate is not indestructible."

After saying that, he drew his bow and arrow again. Red blood lingered around it, and the silver-grey arrowhead became brighter and brighter.

call out!
The world around the arrow suddenly twisted, breaking through the steel plate and solid wood in an instant, and then spun all the way out, easily tearing apart more than a dozen flesh and blood bodies, and embedding them on the wall in blood.

"The Qin army's arrows can penetrate!"

"Oh my god, shield! Shield!"

"Don't f*cking push me!"

"Why are you hiding? Don't you see that one arrow can kill a bunch of people? Is it useful to hide behind?"

……

The Zhao soldiers were all shocked and in chaos. Under the threat of the two arrows, they unconsciously did not want to block the front and pushed each other in panic.

Originally relying on the heavy city gate, the many Zhao soldiers blocking here can be said to be the safest place for this battle. They only need to hold the city gate with force.

But no one expected that there would actually be arrows that could penetrate the city gate and kill anyone indiscriminately. This shocked them greatly.

Especially the Yin-Yang School's Hou Tu disciples, they are not soldiers, they go to war only to gain merit and exchange it for cultivation resources in the sect. No one is willing to die here in vain, and they don't even know who did it!
If I die in such an unclear way, wouldn't it be a huge loss? !
Seeing the soldiers panic, Zhao Jiren was so anxious that his face turned red: "Whoever dares to take a step back, I will chop him down immediately!"

"Hold on! Hold on!"

Whoosh!
He saw the arrow attacking again, killing several people and then rushing straight towards his forehead. The blood-stained enchanting arrowhead quickly enlarged in his eyes.

Clang!
Fortunately, there was a big sword in front of him, which narrowly blocked it.

Whoosh!

Zhao Jiren's breathing suddenly became rapid. He looked up and saw that the arrow had made a hole of moderate depth on the sword. If he had been hit by the arrow, his head would have exploded.

He was so frightened, let alone the soldiers. The continuous shooting made them so panicked that they couldn't even use their full strength to push against the gate, and the shaking of the city gate increased greatly.

When Liu Tianlai and others who were knocking on the door saw this, they all showed joy on their faces and shouted loudly: "Brothers, work harder! The Zhao army can't hold on any longer!"

Ah!
what!
The battering ram hit the city gate hard and soon created a crack in the center of the city gate.

As a result, Ximen's Fire Armor Army soldiers instantly became energized, rubbing their hands together and breathing rapidly.

"Another arrow."

Wu Fengdeng shot three arrows in succession, which consumed a lot of his energy and blood, but it was far from affecting his combat effectiveness. Seeing that he was about to break through the city gate, he shot another arrow without hesitation.

puff!
He saw with his own eyes that the Sunset Arrow, with the effect of a sure hit, accurately passed through the crack in the gate, and then the battering ram rammed it at the right time. In an instant, the city gate was knocked open, and the Zhao army was in chaos.

"kill!"

Following Wang Ben's excited order, the soldiers rushed out in full force, and the soldiers around Wu Fengdeng also rushed out at his wave of the hand.

All things are difficult at the beginning. Once the city gate was broken open, it could no longer withstand the attack. With another impact from the battering ram, it was completely broken open and the Qin army swarmed in!

For a moment, Wei Yu's three gates were strong, but only the west gate was engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Wu Fengdeng put down his longbow, slowly let out a long sigh, took out a few pieces of tonic and ate them slowly, looking indifferently at the torn city wall.

After sensing the presence of Tuodan realm aura, he rushed out on horseback with deputy generals including Guo Huan, and attacked the deputy general guarding the west gate.

"Wu Fengdeng!"

He had just summoned out the Sun Cover when he heard a female voice shouting. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly woman holding a great sword.

"This person is... a disciple of the Yin-Yang School!"

Wu Fengdeng instantly recognized her from the texture of her armor, and then he also noticed the burly young men around her.

"Look at this physique, I think it should be the Yin Yang School's most powerful disciple of Hou Tu. No wonder the city gate is so difficult to break down. It turns out that they are helping."

Just as he was thinking, he was hit hard in the face. The sword was wrapped in golden airflow and was as heavy as a mountain. Even Wu Fengdeng found it difficult to breathe.

state!
Yan Ri took over with a sharp and crisp sound. The recoil force caused ripples and the floor beneath his feet suddenly cracked.

The young Hou Tu in front of him clenched his teeth, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Give my brother back his life!"

The roar shook Wu Fengdeng's eardrums. He took two steps back and asked solemnly, "Who is your brother?"

He had no recollection of having killed any member of the Yin-Yang family who looked like the woman in front of him, so his anger and hatred towards her was inexplicable.

The young Hou Tu gritted his teeth and said, "If it weren't for you, how could Master Taiyi throw all the young gods into the furnace for refining! My brother clearly did nothing wrong, but he got into trouble because of you!"

After listening to this, Wu Fengdeng was slightly startled, and then he understood.

During his last trip to Baiyue, he learned that the Yin-Yang School had refined all the young gods and re-selected them, and that this woman’s brother was most likely the previous Young Hou Tu.

"I have been looking for you for a long time. Today you must pay back all the revenge for my brother's murder!"

Shao Houtu raised her sword and rushed forward again. The two clanging sword strikes demonstrated her incomparable heavy power. When Wu Fengdeng took the opportunity to counterattack, the sharp sword only left a shallow white mark on her body.

This divine weapon that is powerful enough to cut gold and jade cannot break her flesh at all. Her physical strength is not inferior to that of Wei Wuzu!

However, Wu Fengdeng quickly adjusted his tactics after figuring out her style, fighting with her with more agility, looking for her weaknesses. During this fierce battle, the Qin and Zhao armies in the tower were also killing each other, and every corner was filled with fighting.

The Qin army finally opened a gap in the city defense and of course they were not willing to be easily defeated. More and more Qin troops gathered at the west gate.

The Zhao army also knew the importance of guarding the west gate, which was related to the outcome of the battle, so they mobilized more soldiers to provide support. For a time, there were crowds of people inside and outside the wall.

【Thunderbolt Style】!
Wu Fengdeng sent Shao Houtu flying with a powerful earthquake. Just as he was about to rush up to fight again, he suddenly felt the air pressure here drop rapidly. The extremely strong pressure made his heart pound.

"kill!"

At the same time, countless Zhao troops poured into the streets of the city again, and their shouts shook the sky.

Boom boom boom!
Then, there was a rapid drumbeat outside, symbolizing the withdrawal of troops. Wu Fengdeng instantly realized that Li Mu was leading his troops here, and he immediately shouted, "Retreat!"

In this battle against Li Mu, Li Xin and Yang Duanhe joined forces. Logically speaking, when Li Mu arrived, these two would also come to fight.

However, Li Xin and the other two directly ordered a retreat, which shows that they might be helpless facing Li Mu, or there might be some unexpected situations. In short, retreat was inevitable.

The Qin army received the order and began to evacuate in an orderly manner. Wu Fengdeng and a group of deputy generals were the last to leave. As soon as they evacuated the city wall, they saw Shao Houtu rushing up with a ferocious face and roaring angrily.

"Wu Fengdeng, don't leave!"

"Stop right there, you coward!"

……

Faced with her provocation, Wu Fengdeng ignored it, returned to Qin camp and began to inspect the casualties of his subordinates.

The battle was very fierce, and nearly a hundred soldiers from his seven battalions were killed. Even greater losses were the 5,000 ordinary soldiers that Li Xin had allocated to him a few days ago.

However, despite the losses, the gains were greater. With the morale boosted by breaking through the city gate, Wu Fengdeng's subordinates alone killed nearly two thousand enemies.

The casualty ratio is secondary; what really matters is the boost in morale.

"It seems that the city gate is not indestructible!"

"That's right. They say Li Mu is so good at defending the city, but didn't we still break through the city gate today?!"

"Besides, they have the help of the Yin-Yang family. Looking at those big fools who are as strong as calves, they are afraid of death and dare not fight to the death!"

"I think we shouldn't retreat this time. It's entirely possible that we can win in one fell swoop!"

"We stole the show this time. Of the four city gates, only our West Gate was breached. With this achievement, who can compare with us?"

"General Wu is truly invincible. You didn't see those arrows he shot. The thick city gate was like paper. The Zhao soldiers inside couldn't hide. From the sound, we knew they were hiding by covering their buttocks. Hahaha!"

……

The soldiers in the camp were healing their wounds, drinking water, and shouting loudly. They were all more or less excited and passionate, and it was obvious that their blood was still hot.

Wu Fengdeng took a tour and was quite satisfied. After giving some instructions to Li Qun and other captains, he rode to Li Xin's central army camp.

By then, all the generals had arrived, and he came to stand behind Wang Ben, only to hear Li Xin on the main seat say in a deep voice: "Everyone, today's battle must have taught you how powerful Li Mu is. His city defense tactics are truly the best in Shenzhou. You have to admit it."

Many generals, except Wang Ben and others, sighed and nodded. Wu Fengdeng saw their solemn expressions and knew that their losses were probably very heavy.

"But nothing is absolute. General Ximen Wang Ben's men performed the best and breached the city gate in one fell swoop. If General Yang and I hadn't been busy receiving the news from Xianyang, and if Li Mu hadn't rushed there first with 8,000 followers, that place would have surely become the breakthrough point for our victory."

"I regret this, General Wang, General Wu, please forgive me."

After these words were spoken, the other three generals were all somewhat puzzled. As Wang Ben was the main general and the son of Wang Jian, it was understandable for Li Xin to say some polite words.

But why should Wu Fengdeng be brought along?
Even though he had made outstanding military achievements, he shouldn't have been treated with such courtesy by General Li Xin, right?

While the generals were confused, someone who knew the situation whispered something to them and they finally understood.

It turned out that it was Wu Fengdeng who assisted the battering ram in breaking through the city gate, and the four arrows were the key to breaking the city. In this case, it makes sense that Li Xin could take him along.

For a moment, all the generals looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they did not say anything, the surprised looks in their eyes were enough to explain everything.

At the same time, Wang Ben stood up, clasped his fists and replied, "You are too polite, General."

Wu Fengdeng was specifically named by him, and as the deputy general, he bowed and said, "Military orders are as heavy as a mountain, how dare I be dissatisfied? You must have a necessary reason to order a retreat."

Li Xin nodded his chin and said slowly, "I'm glad you understand. To be honest, everyone, we have been besieging the city for many days without success, and we have missed the opportunity to fight. In order to catch up with the pace of the northern route in time, the king has already found another city, Fak. We need to wait for the opportunity in the next few days and sharpen our swords to fight again."

"Look for another way?" The generals looked suspicious when they heard this.

After hearing this, Wu Fengdeng had some enlightenment. Combining it with the history of his previous life, this method was most likely related to Guo Kai?

Li Xin simply said calmly: "I don't know what it is at the moment, but since the king has personally ordered it, we just have to wait."

"We have plenty of food and fodder now, and we have nothing to worry about. We can definitely afford it. When you return to the camp later, remember to explain to your subordinates that the daily training will continue as usual."

The simple life was about to end. It was already evening. Wu Fengdeng rode his horse in the golden light, slowly returning to the camp, his thoughts gradually flying away.

"In the history of Blue Star, Li Mu was a loyal hero. The Qin army failed to conquer him after many years, so they used a strategy of alienation to drive him away."

"It's very similar to the current situation. If my guess is correct, Handan will probably send someone tonight."

He looked back at Wei Yucheng, who was trapped in the darkness like a wounded tiger, crawling on the ground and licking his wounds.

"Kill me! Kill me if you can!"

Li Xing's voice was heard again in the prisoner-of-war camp. The soldiers in charge were used to it. Wu Fengdeng sighed slightly and went back to the camp.

Since I have a few days of free time, I will devote myself to cultivation!
……

Wei Yucheng, General's Mansion.

All the generals also met after the war began. Veteran Li Mu sat in the upper seat and nodded silently.

Finally, he spoke up and looked at Zhao Jiren with a sharp gaze: "General Zhao, why was the west gate breached?"

In this battle, Wei Yu's three gates were fully guarded except the west gate which was breached. All the generals looked at him.

Zhao Jiren swallowed his saliva and said nervously: "General, everything was going well. The Qin army could not shake the west gate at all."

"But I don't know if there is a sharpshooter in the Qin army who can shoot four arrows through the city gate in a row, and kill more than a dozen people each time. This caused great chaos in the army, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of the situation."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.

"What? Through the city gate?"

"Old Zhao, you can't be kidding. What kind of arrow can penetrate Wei Yu's city gate? It's ten inches thick, and there are steel plates inside and outside!"
