Peerless Sword God

Fifty miles south of the capital, Chi Changqing and five generals were sitting on horseback, with 80,000 troops behind them. They had been stationed for another day, waiting for Li You to enter the city before taking action.

But he never expected that the situation would change, and the Wolf Riders would suddenly appear. Chi Changqing remembered what Wu Shudao said to him on the day he left the capital. He thought that the Wolf Riders would at most take advantage of the empty manpower at Longquan Pass to pass through the mountain pass and plunder southward, so he sent intelligence to Xingcheng using the route of the inner guard. But no matter how much he calculated, he did not expect that the Wolf Riders would actually cross the thousand-mile barrier directly and appear in the new city accurately, and the timing was just right.

This was undoubtedly the handiwork of that opponent. Chi Changqing could imagine that after this battle, the capital of Dasheng might no longer exist.

Chi Changqing distributed the information to no one and said, "This is the situation now. The news I received was from several hours ago. At least 100,000 wolf riders appeared in the new city. Moreover, at least 5,000 imperial guards and the main force of the orcs have come."

Qi Lu frowned: "How did they get here? Secret passage? Wang Yun, you are the only one who has seen the secret passage. What do you think?"

Wang Yun waved his hand: "I have seen it, but the secret passage is often bidirectional. Their situation is a bit special. Moreover, crossing thousands of miles is too costly and requires a lot of spirit stones. Really I don't understand. "

Chi Changqing looked at the five people and said in a serious tone: "This can be done. The Spiritual Media Mountain is a natural spirit gathering array, which can condense and liquefy the spirit energy and finally crystallize it. There are too many things involved, and I can't explain it in detail again, but there is one thing I hope everyone understands, the mode of war and the opponent have changed fundamentally. In the future, we will not only encounter orcs, but also sea elves, and even dragons. "

Li Bing's eyes were bright. He has been studying war all his life. Changes are often the touchstone for testing a general's true ability. Facing the challenge, he was eager to try.

"I suggest that we move forward now. I don't know what changes will happen in the capital, but one thing we need to consider is the safety of hundreds of thousands of people in the city. Moreover, if we march forward in formation, even if we encounter wolf riders, they can only fight us head-on. If we fight street battles in the city, we will have an advantage, because the terrain barrier will prevent their wolf riders from exerting their full combat power."

Li Hao added: "Brother is right. When the time comes, you, Lao Guan, will set up a shield formation, and I will command the archers to push all the way and squeeze them to death."

Guan Xihai shook his head: "It would be great if it were that easy! Take it one step at a time. What? Wang Rui? March?"

"March into the capital."

It was already afternoon when Chi Changqing's troops set out from the capital, and the capital was already weak. The orcs who entered the city did not start the massacre first, but directly looked for the main resistance force in the city. This was not because Mengge had a change of heart or was kind-hearted, but because the orcs had been fighting against the harsh natural environment for a long time, and they had to solve all dangers first, and then enjoy the food.

First, the wolf riders broke through the city wall, and then they cleaned up the city wall and the city wall in the north city, and another team of imperial guards went straight to the main road.

Although the imperial city in the old city is not big, it is still an extremely eye-catching target. The imperial guards entered the imperial city with almost no effort. As a result, they found that there were no decent guards in the old imperial city except for the palace maids and eunuchs for daily maintenance. This obviously could not be reassuring. Then they moved forward.

The infiltration of a small group of elite wolf riders was very effective. Even if they were not directly attacked, ordinary people were already panicked. Many people fled directly to the east and south of the city without even taking their belongings. Everyone knows that the fight broke out in the new city in the morning, so naturally they could not go to the west of the city.

The orcs followed the crowd and chased and drove them all the way. As a result, they found that the crowd was crowded together and there were very few defenders when they arrived at the south and east of the city.

The intelligence was gathered on the Mengge singer at the gate of the imperial city. Everything was clear. The main force was still in the west of the city.

Mengge made two attacks. One was to attack the city wall from the old city, and the other was to fight for the tower in the northwest corner from the city wall in the north of the city.

The battle was extremely fierce. The tower in the northwest corner changed hands several times. The walls were filled with corpses. In the end, they had to push and step on the corpses to fight. Compared with Qu Hui's side, Mengge got a big advantage in such a battle, because no matter whether it was climbing the city from the inside or fighting for the arrow tower in the northwest corner, it was impossible to use the city defense equipment.

Faced with such a situation, Qu Hui finally had to spend thousands of people to recapture the city gate tower in the northwest corner, and then pour kerosene on it to block the enemy's attack. Then he withdrew the main force to the city wall. Use the inner and outer walls of the city wall to defend.

Mengge was very troubled when facing Qu Hui. Looking at the familiar flag, he also understood that the old opponent in front of him was not as strong as the wall of Longquan Pass, but they could not easily deal with it without preparing siege equipment. Although the heavy arrows were strong, it was difficult to hit the wretched soldiers behind the battlements. Meng Ge could only leave a part of the main force to guard the city wall, and the rest of the people occupied the southeastern walls, preparing to completely block the escape route of the capital, and then besiege and kill the 20,000 defeated soldiers in the city wall.

For the orcs, the people of the capital and the corpses on the ground were inexhaustible supplies. The gate tower was taken down quickly, and then all the armored people in the city were cleared out, leaving only the unarmed people. Some casual cultivators were also mixed in. It’s not that they didn’t resist, but the orcs with the advantage of numbers and the proper coordination of the battle formation were much stronger than the mob.

The clearance of the city began, and the orcs soon found the real center of the old city, the Heavenly Book Gate.

At first, the wolf riders were very cautious when entering. They always felt a creepy feeling, but after searching the Heavenly Book, they found that there was no one, until a leader of the orcs felt the terrifying spiritual fluctuations in the hall.

The name of the Heavenly Book was not unfamiliar. They vaguely heard that it seemed to be a powerful sect. Outside the hall, several wolf riders were holding huge swords or bows and arrows pointing at the door of the hall.

"Bang!" Before the door was opened, a spiritual whirlwind formed from the inside, tearing the surrounding doors and walls into pieces.

And those who approached cautiously were immediately torn by the whirlwind and flew around, or hit the wall, or flew out directly.

An orc staggered and stood up from the wall, holding his bleeding head. However, under the pressure of the spiritual energy vortex, his face was somewhat deformed and he could only cling to the wall. Then, his pupils widened and he looked at the increasingly violent spiritual energy fluctuations in front of him in horror.

Not far away, a team of wolf riders also saw the whirlwind rising from the ground in the center of the city, carrying a terrifying pressure.

"What is that?"

"It seems to be caused by the direction of the heavenly book. Such a strong spiritual energy fluctuation."

Countless people saw the whirlwind that was dozens of feet above the ground. Even Qu Hui, who was guarding the city in the west of the city, saw this scene. Li Jiuyang closed his eyes silently.

"Buzz!"

People at close range only felt a heart-pounding spiritual energy fluctuation, followed by a burst of explosions from the tornado.

"Pop!"

Then, there was another explosion. Then, they saw two runes pushed together by the explosion. Then, there was a dazzling white light.

The whole capital saw the dazzling white light. Those who had experienced the battle in the small county town of Henan Road were either not here or had died. This was the same thing as what Zhou Zhe had originally created, a disordered amplification array. It was the work of the Yuan Fang brothers, replacing the original defensive formation of the Heavenly Book.

"What is that?"

Meng Ge was a little terrified. This unexpected thing would make him feel that the situation was out of control.

After the shining white light, it was accompanied by a huge sound, enough to pierce the eardrums. The giant wolves whimpered and crawled on the ground like dogs whose tails were stepped on.

"Boom!" With a few explosions, the earth shattered, and the four main roads of the old city split from it, and countless houses on both sides collapsed. The explosion did not spread outward, but from top to bottom, pressing the Heavenly Book into the ground.

Before, the Yuan Fang brothers learned this move from Zhou Zhe's battle with the Eight-clawed Shura in the Nine Palaces Formation of Xuankong Mountain. The remains of the Tower of Babel, condensed from gold and water, were extremely solid and would not be shattered by such an explosion. They would only be pressed underground as a whole. This was the effect of the Heavenly Book Formation.

A huge library suddenly appeared underground, and it was forcibly pressed down. The result was predictable. The ground of the entire capital was shaking.

On the wall of the city wall, Qu Hui felt the violent shaking and lowered his body. Then, everyone heard a click. A crack appeared in the wall, and a corner of the city wall even tilted because of it. Several soldiers who were standing unsteadily fell directly down.

The other gates and walls were not easy either, especially the lonely walls that were relatively solid compared to the soil. Under this impact, they were even directly broken from the middle.

The shock wave of the explosion immediately brought up dust and rushed into the sky, mixed with the black smoke from the burning of the new and old cities, and brought up a heat wave.

"Master, let's go." Qu Hui looked at the tornado that disappeared in the distance and the mess in the city, and wiped his face.

"Pah! Pah!" Rain began to fall from the sky. There was too much dust in the air, turning the spring rain into muddy rain. Wherever it hit, there was dirt wrapped in black dust.

Countless soldiers stood in the rain, waiting for the next round of attack.

Meng Ge recovered from his panic and then sent people to explore the city center. The place where the Heavenly Book was originally located had become a complete ruin. The previous buildings seemed to have disappeared and were directly blasted into the ground. Then the surrounding ruins and mud buried everything in the Heavenly Book under the ground.

As for casualties, except for the orcs who were directly evaporated within a hundred meters of the Heavenly Book, there was not much damage, but the buildings in the entire capital were severely damaged, and many of the old imperial city collapsed under this blow. Meng Ge, who was close to the imperial city, was scared away by the sound of collapse. He had no choice but to wait until the message of safety came back before he felt relieved.

Meng Ge, who had just felt relieved, turned his target to the army on the city wall in the west of the city again, so he personally went to the front of the battle and commanded the siege to remove the last nail.
