"Archers, marksn, get ready. Don't carry the kerosene barrels up first, carry the rolling wood first …"
Under his command, the defending Army launched a defensive counterattack in an orderly manner. The rumbling sounds of cannons firing and shells exploding could be heard everywhere.
The expanding flas exploded below the city and on the city walls.
The cannon gunner was killed, and the reserve team quickly filled in.
The mounted crossbow cannons were destroyed, and the militia imdiately pushed in new heavy firearms.
In addition, these conscripted militia were running back and forth on the horse track, rescuing the wounded.
The battle was extrely intense.
Zhuo Haoran held a standard military saber and agilely dodged the cannons, arrows, and the rolling wood that was thrown down from the top of the city wall.
They got close to the city gate.
The city gate had been destroyed by him three days ago, but the Yunzhou Army had not been able to pass through the city gate smoothly because the city guards had already carried over tons of stones to block the gate.
There was only a small door that could only allow one person and one horse to pass through.
When they were defending the city, the small gate was blocked by a huge rock.
When they left the city, dozens of militian used hemp ropes to pull apart the boulders.
This kind of tactic was common before the ergence of the Warlock system.
In ancient tis, there would be a separate stone storage warehouse built at the gate of each city wall to ensure that the defending Army could quickly seal the city gate during warti.
After the ergence of the Warlock system, the border towns and main cities were all protected by formations, and the "city-sealing tactic" was gradually abandoned.
In the past year, yang Gong had re-employed the tactic of sealing the city and ordered all counties to build warehouses to prepare stones.
The city-sealing tactic was mainly used to guard against rank-4 powerhouses. The city gates would not be able to stop martial artists of this realm, but the city-sealing technique could ensure that the enemy could still be stopped even after the city gates were destroyed.
After all, the Army was still mainly composed of ordinary soldiers and low-ranked martial artists.
Zhuo Haoran leaped up and took a few steps on the city wall, easily reaching the top of the city wall. With a sweep of his blade, he cut a cannon and two cannoneers into two.
Shua shua shua … Miao Youfang stepped on the horse track, creating deep pits one after another. Like a mad bull, he crashed into the fourth-grade Zhuo Haoran with his fifth-grade body.
Zhuo Haoran laughed sinisterly, and his saber intent burst forth. The standard military saber instantly turned as red as a soldering iron, and it was wrapped in the intent to destroy everything. It was as if he was going to cut down the rank-5 fellow.
Not far away, under the protection of two guards, Xu Erlang's whole body was surrounded by a faint clear Qi. With one hand behind his back and the other on his lower abdon, he said in a deep voice, "
"A man should die with no regrets.
"A man should be benevolent and righteous."
Yang Gong's jade pendant hanging on his waist lit up, adding a bit of power to the righteousness Qi.
At the sa ti, the guard on the left of Xu Erlang drew his bow and shot an arrow into the sky.
The arrow was bound to the fireworks and exploded in the sky.
As soon as he finished speaking, Miao Youfang's aura rose sharply, as if he had been injected with stimulants. Zhuo Haoran's eyes clearly showed that he was in a daze for a mont. The word 'benevolence' made him unable to swing the knife in his hand.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Miao Youfang closed in and slapped away the blade in Zhuo Haoran's hand. Then, he lunged to the side and knocked Zhuo Haoran's body uncontrollably into the air. After that, he used the ultimate technique of huajin martial artists-
I'll kill you with one set!
Xu Erlang was a seventh-level benevolent person, and the ability he had just used was an eighth-level cultivation state ability-literary courage.
The greatest use of the power of literary courage was to boost morale, increase the fighting power of one's own soldiers, and eliminate certain illnesses.
Secondly, it could affect the enemy's mind for a short ti. If used well, it could weaken the enemy.
The eighth level of the power of literary courage was an advanced version of the fifth level of virtue. As the na suggested, virtue was to regulate people's words and actions, and to demand others with the " six virtues of a gentleman ".
This was very similar to the Buddhist commandnt.
However, there was no room for discipline to advance, and virtue, if it went one step further, would be the law.
At that point, there would be no need for the six virtues of a gentleman to regulate people's words and actions, and they could do whatever they wanted and force it.
Bang! Bang!
Miao Youfang's combo was forcibly interrupted by Zhuo Haoran, who had co back to his senses. His lower abdon was imdiately kicked, and he was instantly sent flying, rolling on the horse track.
Zhuo Haoran didn't care about the pathetic-looking Miao Youfang. He stomped on the parapet and charged toward Xu Erlang with a clear target.
In the past few city sieges, this scholar from Yun Lu Academy had caused him to suffer greatly. He had relied on the Confucians 'spells to temporarily pin him down and a rank 5 martial artist to cause him to return in defeat ti after ti.
Miao Youfang's elbows and feet plowed deep marks on the ground, and he forcibly diverted the force. He opened his palm, took two cannonballs from the basket, and threw them at Zhuo Haoran.
Then, it was ignited by Qi.
"BOOM!"
The expanding flas enveloped Zhuo Haoran, and Xu Erlang took the opportunity to retreat under the protection of the guards.
He was unusually calm and did not seem to be afraid of being chased by a rank-four martial artist. After Zhuo Haoran rushed out of the ball of fire, he gathered his clear air again and said, "
"A gentleman should value peace.
"A gentleman should sacrifice his life for justice."
Miao Youfang pounced from the side with a ferocious expression and rolled down the city wall while entangled with Zhuo Haoran.
Clang clang clang … During the process, the two of them used both their arms and legs to fight fiercely. The enemy soldiers who were climbing up the ladder were affected and fell while screaming.
Miao Youfang was quickly defeated, and Zhuo Haoran opened up an opening with a punch. Imdiately after, butcher Zhuo's palms were like knives, and knife intent exploded in Miao Youfang's chest.
At that mont, a sharp spear radiance shot over like a cot, interrupting Zhuo Haoran's attack and forcing him to wave his palm blade to block.
Zhu Jun flew over the wall and rushed over at the critical mont.
With Xu Erlang and Miao Youfang's abilities, it was barely enough to deal with Zhuo Haoran. Whenever Zhuo Haoran attacked the city, Xu Erlang would send soone to use fireworks as a signal to inform the bamboo Jun at the north gate.
Zhu Jun knew that the enemy's rank-4 was here and would imdiately rush over.
"Bang!"
In the blast that was like the explosion of a cannon, Miao Youfang took the opportunity to break free. He stepped on the city wall and returned to the top of the city wall, guarding Xu Erlang.
After Zhuo Haoran slashed the spear away, he returned to the top of the city wall and stood on top of it.
Zhu Jun stood between the two parties and summoned its spear to confront Zhuo Haoran.
Zhuo Haoran's gaze swept past Zhu Jun and landed on Xu niannian, who was behind him. He sneered, "
"I once said in front of the general that I'll take down Songshan County in five days. Today was the eighth day. The city was not taken down, and more than half of the elites under his command were lost.
"I can't believe that my reputation is all thanks to you, little brat."
Xu Erlang replied calmly, "
"It's not an injustice for a son to fall into the hands of his father."
Anger flashed across Zhuo Haoran's face, but he suppressed his emotions and said slowly, "
"Do you know why I attacked the city tonight?"
This was exactly what Xu Erlang was puzzled about, but he only replied indifferently, "
"Because you're tired of living."
The veins on Zhuo Haoran's forehead throbbed. I don't have to be angry with soone who's about to die. The elites that the state preceptor has painstakingly trained are already here.
"Ruthless ~"
Suddenly, a high-pitched and sharp cry ca from the horizon.
At this mont, the sky was blue and the sun was rising from the east.
Under the dark blue sky, a group of huge creatures flapped their wings and headed towards Songshan County.
"Vermillion Bird Army!"
Zhuo Haoran glanced at the horizon and retracted his gaze. He grinned hideously.
"Today, I will destroy the city. I will slaughter for three days and three nights."
Flying beast Army … Xu Erlang's pupils contracted.
………..
The southern border.
Xu Qi 'an summoned the stupa Pagoda. The door of the pagoda opened and a beam of light shot down.
In the beam of light was mu nanzhi, who was holding Bai Ji.
"What's the matter?"
He kept the stupa Pagoda and looked at Bai Ji.
The little fox had sent him a ssage through the tower spirit, saying that she had sothing important to discuss with him.
Mu nanzhi's eyes imdiately turned to Luo Yuheng, who was standing beside Xu Qi 'an.
