The king behind the empress

Chapter 383 Battle at the Head of the City
Yang Yanzhang Su Ri'an was in charge of the feint attack, so the soldiers under his command not only carried the siege ladder, but also had a pair of wooden shields in their hands when they attacked the city. The wooden shield was as tall as a person. Although it looked a little clumsy, But he was able to completely cover up his body, protecting himself to the extreme.

And because the Red Flame Dragonriders all have the strength of bone forging level, even though they resisted the ladder with one hand and held the clumsy wooden shield with the other, they still moved nimbly like monkeys, and quickly approached the city wall.

The Red Flame Dragon knight soldiers holding the siege ladder put the siege ladder on the city wall, and then a dozen soldiers holding large shields jumped straight up, jumping seven or eight meters high on the spot, and landed unevenly and orderly. on the ladder.

The weight of these soldiers, coupled with the weight of the heavy armor, directly pressed the siege ladder firmly on the city wall, and the soldiers defending Zhaoyuan City on the top of the city could not overturn the ladder at all.

After the ladder was stabilized, the Knights of the Red Flame Dragon, who had landed on the ladder, climbed up with a large shield in their hands, as if they were on flat ground, and they almost climbed to the top of the ladder in just a short while.

"Falling rocks!"

Xing Jun saw that these red flame dragonriders were attacking the city so fast, and he didn't care about anything else at the moment. After ordering the soldiers on the top of the city to throw down rolling stones, he himself took the lead and rushed to the edge of the city wall, After picking up a huge boulder, he threw it directly towards the ladder closest to him.

As the guard of Zhaoyuan City, Xing Jun is an out-and-out body cultivator in the marrow washing state. Others would throw stones down, but he used all his strength to smash them down.

"Boom~"

With a loud noise, the wooden shields of the soldiers on the siege ladder were smashed to pieces by him, and several soldiers under the wooden shields were also smashed down by him in a series, among which the soldiers at the top suffered the most impact. Qiang, was smashed first, and then fell to the ground from a distance of more than ten meters.

This level of attack was unbearable even with the heavy armor on their bodies. They fell directly on the ground and vomited blood, unable to move for a long time.

As for these wounded, the Scarlet Flame Dragonriders didn't let them go, but directly separated several people, carried one of them, and quickly took them away from the battlefield.

Xing Jun on the top of the city looked at the Red Flame Dragon Knights who were severely injured by him, and he didn't feel a little bit of joy in his heart.

He was condescending, and even with all his strength, he didn't cause casualties to these red flame dragonriders, how could he fight this battle.

Xing Jun, with a gloomy face, raised his eyes to look elsewhere. The soldiers on the top of the city were constantly throwing stones down. Although the soldiers on the siege ladder could be smashed down by the weight of the stones, but Those soldiers who threw stones did not have their own strength at all.

Although the soldiers of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry were smashed off the ladder with stones, after they fell from a height of more than ten meters, the soldiers below acted as buffers for them, and the soldiers of the Red Flame Dragon Knights who fell were not affected at all. Multiple injuries.

Standing on the top of the city, Xing Jun watched the two fallen soldiers with his own eyes. He just lay down on the ground for a while, and then he stood up without waiting for others to help him, and then went to the siege ladder. Climb up and start the next round of impact again.

"These soldiers are too difficult!"

After observing the battle situation, Xing Jun looked at the red flame dragonriders under the city, and felt extremely tired in his heart. Originally, the strength of these red flame dragonriders far surpassed the soldiers on his side, and now they armed themselves to the teeth. It's just an iron turtle.

With giant shields in their hands, it would be difficult for the rain of arrows and golden juice to achieve good results. If they are allowed to fight like this, they will probably be able to attack the city wall in a short time. If that happens, the people on the top of the city will The soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses.

"We can't go on like this anymore, we have to suppress their arrogance first!"

Thinking of this, Xing Jun no longer hesitated, turned his head and ordered to the soldiers under his command: "Go to bed and shoot the soldiers who charge the fastest."

After finishing speaking, Xing Jun looked at the soldiers who were attacking the city, was silent for a moment, and then continued in a somewhat cold tone: "Pour fuel oil, cooperate with the bed crossbow, and repel this wave of offensive first."

"Here!"

The herald at the top of the city passed on the order, and then on the arrow fort at the top of the city, several soldiers stepped on the bow arm of the bed crossbow, pulled the bed crossbow with some difficulty, and aimed at the The knights of the Red Flame Dragon attacking the city.

"Whoo~ whoo~ whoo~"

A few black shadows passed across the top of the city first, and then there were a few sharp cracks of the air. Following the sound, several Chi Yanlong knights who were about to climb to the top of the city wall directly It flew out from the top of the city.

The arrows from Huya pierced through all these soldiers including their heavy armor.

"Bed Crossbow!"

Looking at the soldiers who were shot and killed on the top of the city, Yang Yanzhang's expression changed slightly. With the protective ability of the Red Flame Dragonrider, besides the arc arrow, the bed crossbow could cause damage to them. It's just that these two major killers The power of the arrow is still somewhat different, if it is an arrow, it will not only kill one person with one arrow.

Standing at the bottom of the city, Yang Yanzhang raised his head and carefully stared at the position of the bed crossbow at the top of the city, and made a note of it carefully. The reason why he didn't rush to the top of the city at the first time just now was because the big killers such as the bed crossbow and the arc arrow might would be a threat to him.

However, these siege equipment are very inflexible, and there are dead ends when they are placed on the city wall for defense. Now that they know their positions, it is time to take action.

After Yang Yanzhang calculated the weakness of the bed crossbow defense in his mind, he drew his inch-long spear and quietly approached the city wall.

It's just that when others approached the ladder, the city wall changed immediately. The black liquid fell down the siege ladder and poured directly on the ladder and the giant shield in the hands of the Red Flame Dragon Knight soldiers.

Smelling the pungent smell in the air, Yang Yanzhang's complexion immediately changed, "No, it's fierce fire oil!"

The temperature of this thing is extremely high, and its adhesion is very strong. If it is poured all over the body by this thing, then all of these people in heavy armor will become teppanyaki.

Thinking of this, Yang Yanzhang didn't have time to think, he stepped on the ground heavily with both feet, and then jumped up, just borrowing his strength from the ladder once, he jumped directly onto the city wall.

The soldiers on the top of the city held torches in their hands and were about to throw them down when they suddenly saw Yang Yanzhang appearing on the city wall and couldn't help being shocked.

"Crack~"

The soldier holding the torch didn't react at all, Yang Yanzhang blasted his head with a single shot, and red and white things splashed all over the sky immediately.

After killing the soldiers who wanted to light the fire with one shot, Yang Yanzhang snatched the burning torch from the dead body with his free left hand, while the inch-long gun in his right hand swept out, directly killing all the surrounding defenders. for two.

After cleaning up the soldiers around him, Yang Yanzhang turned his eyes sharply, and soon noticed the wooden barrels hoarding the fierce oil inside the city wall, and then he rushed to the front of the fierce oil without the slightest hesitation.

Although there are soldiers on the top of the city guarding the fierce oil, but he is at the golden body level, and these soldiers don't even have the refinement level, and they are even weaker than paper dolls in front of him. The soldiers guarding the fierce fire oil all fell down in an instant.

Yang Yanzhang, who had killed these soldiers, without any hesitation, flew up and kicked a wooden barrel towards the place where most soldiers gathered on the top of the city.

"Bang~"

The wooden barrel flew up and hit a soldier's body, directly smashing the soldier's flesh and blood, and the fragile wooden barrel shattered, and black flames and oil splashed all over the place.

Just when the flaming oil had just splashed out, Yang Yanzhang threw out the torch in his left hand, and the burning torch fell directly on the flaming oil on the ground.

"Boom~"

The fierce fire oil ignites when it encounters a fire, and the red flame instantly fills the top of the city.

Seeing that the flame had been lit, Yang Yanzhang did not stop at all, and kept kicking the burning oil barrel beside him towards the flame, so fast that his right foot had an afterimage.

"Bang~bang~bang~"

As the wooden barrels smashed there one by one, the flames there suddenly burned bigger and bigger, and soon filled the city wall.

And the soldiers on that section of the city wall were covered in flames and had nowhere to escape. Some soldiers jumped off the city wall in a panic and fell to their deaths under the city wall, while those who waited were empty. Ku's were rolling all over the ground, but at such a high temperature, they couldn't struggle for long, and soon lost their vitality in the flames.

Xing Jun naturally noticed the turmoil on the city wall. Seeing that the soldiers of the Red Flame Dragonriders below were about to climb up the city wall because of the turmoil on the city wall, he didn't care about saving his strength, so he directly ordered: "Guards, follow me to guard that section of the city wall."

"Turn the direction of the crossbow over there, and make sure that the soldiers under the city cannot rush up."

After giving the order, Xing Jun looked hesitantly at the several Arrows behind him, but in the end he still didn't let them take action.

Huya is his strongest hole card, if he makes a move now, if there is any accident in the interval between the arrow filling, it will be troublesome.

So he was silent for a moment, and then said to his confidant: "You stay here and take charge of the overall situation. If there is any accident, take action as soon as possible."

"Here!"

The leader of Xingjun's personal guards responded, and then stood on the top, observing the movements on the city wall.

After explaining, Xing Jun led people directly to the section of the city wall where Yang Yanzhang was. Looking at Yang Yanzhang on the city wall, and then at the fire behind him, Xing Jun immediately understood how the fire started.

Although he didn't know how Yang Yanzhang rushed up, he didn't have time to ask so many questions at this time. He looked at Yang Yanzhang who was alone, and said coldly: "You are looking for death!"

"Oh, here comes the big fish?"

Yang Yanzhang, who was setting the fire, saw Xing Jun in the group, and couldn't help feeling a little excited. Although he didn't know that Xing Jun was the general of Zhaoyuan City, he could tell from his armor that this person must be the general of Zhaoyuan City , if he can be killed, this section of the city wall will definitely be more chaotic.

Therefore, he didn't have the slightest intention of talking loudly, and directly killed Xing Jun.

Yang Yanzhang, who was in the golden body, was extremely fast, and he rushed to Xing Jun in an instant, and then the inch-long spear in his hand was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and went straight to Xing Jun's throat.

"Ok?"

Xing Jun just felt a blur in front of his eyes, and there was a gleaming spear point in front of him, piercing his vitals at an extremely fast speed. In the crisis of life and death, he had no time to think about it, but relying on this experience, using his strength cut the knife out.

"Qiang~"

With the sound of metal clashing, when the Cunyan gun was almost on the point of Xing Jun's throat, he was almost deflected with a knife, and the tip of the gun rubbed against his throat, scratching Armor to his shoulders.

The armor made of black iron, under the sharp inch-long gun, was poked out like a white paper, and a hole was directly poked out, and a deep wound was left on Xing Jun's shoulder.

"Ok?"

Yang Yanzhang thought that this shot would kill the guard, but he didn't expect to be blocked by him.

But Yang Yanzhang didn't care too much, if you can block the first shot, can you also block the second shot?

Yang Yanzhang, who drew his gun, quickly fired a second shot. Seeing that Xing Jun, whose shoulder was injured, was unable to resist Yang Yanzhang's second shot, he was about to be killed by this shot. The guards who followed Xing Jun She pulled Xing Jun violently and pulled him behind her.

In this way, Xing Jun was out of Yang Yanzhang's attack range, but this soldier was exposed to Yang Yanzhang's gun.

"Pfft~"

Yang Yanzhang didn't show mercy at all, and pierced the soldier's chest with his inch-long spear.

"Take the general away!!!"

The soldier who was pierced through the chest let out a mournful roar. Knowing that he would die, he retreated instead of advancing. The body pierced by the inch-long spear did not retreat but advanced. He rushed forward two steps, trying to hug the man holding the inch-long spear. Yang Yanzhang.

"Old Seven!"

Seeing his bodyguard being pierced by Yang Yanzhang, Xing Jun's eyes were red, but he did not rush forward blindly, but fled backwards without hesitation under the protection of the bodyguard.

He is not Yang Yanzhang's opponent at all, even if he goes up now, he will just die. As a qualified general, he can't waste the opportunity created by Lao Qi, let alone lead his brothers to die in vain.

Therefore, Xing Jun's teeth were about to be gnawed into pieces, but he didn't look back, but ran towards Huya with the fastest speed.

"Ugh……"

Looking at this loyal soldier, Yang Yanzhang sighed with emotion, but he did not hesitate in his actions. He took a step forward, and then slapped the soldier's chest with a skillful palm, causing his body to be shot from the inch-long gun. out.

After such a delay, Xing Jun had already run a certain distance, but this distance was nothing to Yang Yanzhang, he stepped hard, and caught up with Xing Jun and his group in just a moment.

"go!"

The two guards under Xing Jun looked at Yang Yanzhang approaching, and stayed behind without any hesitation, trying to stop Yang Yanzhang's footsteps.

"It is impossible for the same move to take effect on me twice."

Looking at the two soldiers who took the initiative to stay, although Yang Yanzhang had some respect in his heart, he did not hesitate to strike. Having absorbed the experience from last time, he swept across with the point of his spear, without giving the two of them a chance to pounce on the spear. took the lives of two people.

There are more than 20 guards left around Xing Jun. Following Yang Yanzhang's pursuit, these guards stood up one by one. Although they knew their lives, they could only stop Yang Yanzhang for a moment at most. But they didn't hesitate.

"Why bother..."

Yang Yanzhang couldn't bear to kill until the end, but the status of Xingjun who was protected by so many people must be extraordinary, so in order to capture Zhaoyuan City as soon as possible, Yang Yanzhang was ruthless and killed all the way.

After killing Xing Jun's last guard, Yang Yanzhang looked at Xing Jun and said calmly, "This time, it's your turn..."
