Vol 2 Chapter 141: Siege

　Chuzhou City.
　　 On the tall and towering city wall, there is a huge three-storey tower with raised cornices. Standing on the highest floor, you can directly see dozens of miles away.
　　 In the lobby on the top floor, a middle-aged man with a knife is sitting on a big chair in tiger skin.
　　He wears heavy armor forged with 100-smelting steel, wears a scarlet cloak, and has a pair of narrow and sharp Danfeng eyes. His facial features are quite handsome, five points similar to Emperor Yuanjing.
　　 This person has the vigor of a military commander on the battlefield, and the awe-inspiring arrogance of Tianhuang nobleman. He is the kind of authority who is born to be in a high position.
　　 North King of Dafeng Town.
　　 The prince’s life experience is legendary. He has been inexhaustible since he was a child, and he has been able to tear apart tigers and leopards, but he is by no means reckless. On the contrary, King Huai was talented and intelligent, far better than his brothers and sisters.
　　 King Huai is good at killing and obsessed with martial arts. The first emperor once said that the Seventh Prince is a god-given guardian. Therefore, the throne was not passed to him.
　　Duke Huai doesn't care about it himself. For him, as long as he can reach the peak of martial arts, power will naturally come. The identity of the prince is nothing but an aid to his martial arts journey to the top.
　　 Some people in this world are addicted to beauty, some are addicted to money, some are addicted to power, and some are addicted to practice.
　　 King Huai was in charge of the army at the age of fifteen, fought all over the capital invincible at the age of twenty, and sat in the north at the age of twenty-five. Now it is sixteen years.
　　The most beautiful time for him was twenty years ago, when he set off with Wei Yuan and served as a deputy, he held the Zhen Guojian to kill countless masters of the northern and southern barbarians.
　　 was evaluated as the second hero in the Shanhaiguan Campaign by historical records.
　　 "Report!"
　　 A black robe spy lowered his head, walked quickly into the lobby, kneeled in the hall, holding a stack of secret letters in his hands.
　　 Zhenbei Wang reached out and the secret letter flew into his palm automatically. He unfolded the secret letter and read them one by one.
　　 The first secret letter was a confession letter. The agents tried their best to search the border, but still did not find the princess and the four barbarian leaders who took her away.
The second secret letter is about the political envoy Zheng who escaped from the massacre. The letter stated that the Feiyan heroine Li Miaozhen successfully got on the line with the administrative envoy Zheng. During the interception by the Tianzi secret agent, he was blocked by a Buddhist master, unfortunately let Li Miaozhen escape. .
　　 The third and fourth confidential letters are military sentiments. The Qingyan tribe's 20,000 cavalrymen were dispatched without any luggage, marching hurriedly, and they are heading towards the city of Chuzhou.
　　 Zhu Jiu, the leader of the northern monster clan, led the monster clan to the south and pointed directly at Chuzhou City.
　　 They did not rob the people on the way, did not try to attack other cities, and pounced on the city of Chuzhou with extremely strong purpose. The Chuzhou city was already very close to the border. Before dusk, the cavalry of the Qingyan tribe and the demon clan under the command of Zhulong would approach the city.
　　 The secret letter in the hands of the northern king of town turned into powder, and he waved back the spy. He got up from the big chair, looked at the empty lobby, and said in a deep voice:
　　 "Let them find out."
"This is expected. There are many people who know about Mu Nanzhi's miraculously. Countless pairs of eyes are staring at you, just waiting for you to improve your cultivation and seize her spiritual accumulation. Even if you hide your power and bide your time, you can estimate it. There are many people who have come out of your cultivation base. We slaughtered Chuzhou City and concealed it for more than a month, and it is already a very successful plan."
　　 A voice rang in the hall, responding to the king of Zhenbei.
　　 "How long is it going to be done?" Wang Huai looked forward, his face calm.
　　 "Three hours."
The voice chuckled: "Don't worry, you should know that the essence of mortal life is useless to you. They must be refined into blood pills, heh, 380,000 people, naturally, it takes time and effort. Of course, if not, To refine the soul pill, as early as ten years ago, the blood pill could be refined."
　　 paused, the voice said again: "Lost Mu Nanzhi, even if you take blood pills, you can't be promoted to the second rank."
　　 Zhenbei Wang said lightly: "We have already figured out the measures to make up for it, haven't we? Don't worry, I will not break my promise if I promise you."
　　 The voice made a hoarse laughter: "Together, it benefits both...someone is coming."
　　 At the gate, the figure swayed, and the one-eyed guardian Que Yongxiu, with a long sword on his waist and hips, strode with one hand on the handle of the knife.
　　 "Duke Huai, there is still no whereabouts of Zheng Xinghuai." Que Yongxiu said in a deep voice.
　　 "After this battle, if I get promoted to the second rank, I don't need to care about him. If I lose, I have a way to protect you, don't worry." Zhenbei Wang said lightly.
　　Guardian Que Yongxiu, he was relieved, and said, "Is this fight safe?"
　　 Zhenbei Wang nodded slowly.
　　Que Yongxiu suddenly smiled, and Da Ma Jindao sat on the chair and smiled:
"It's time for me to produce a second-grade Dafeng. These years, the northern barbarians and monsters are arrogant and do not put us in the eyes. After this battle, we stepped down on the Tianshan Mountain, and then skinned the candle nine. Stew soup for the soldiers."
　　 Zhenbei Wang's serious face showed a smile.
　　Que Yongxiu was his companion when he was young, and then led the soldiers together from the Shanhaiguan battle to the northern border. They have been in love with each other for nearly 20 years, and their relationship is deeper than their brothers.
　　 Otherwise, the matter of slaughtering the city would not be left to him.
　　...........
　　 The sun gradually moved westward, and the soldiers standing on the wall overlooking the city narrowed their eyes and saw a cloud of dust rising from the horizon, and countless cavalrymen galloped in. And behind the cavalry, there is a blue giant two feet high.
　　 They are here.
　　 "咚咚咚!"
　　 The sound of the drum shook the fields, and the soldiers on the wall immediately moved, and they prepared for the defense equipment such as rolling stones, kerosene, and wood.
　　 The news that the barbarian army is about to attack the city has long been passed back to Chuzhou. Regarding this, no matter it is an officer or a low-level soldier, there is no panic.
　　 In the clang of armor, the king of Zhenbei took a knife and stepped out, standing on the observation deck of the tower, looking at the leader of the Qingyan Tribe.
　　 The two third-ranking powerhouses looked at each other across the wide plain, clearly seeing each other's expressions and eyes. Auspicious knows the ancients and smiles slyly, while the king of Zhenbei picks the corner of his mouth, with a sneer and disdain.
　　 After looking at each other for a short time, Geely Zhigu suddenly lowered his head, shook his arms, and began to run wildly.
　　 Boom boom boom...
　　 The big earthquake trembled, like a cannonball exploding, and the cyan giant turned into an afterimage, seeming to want to crash the city wall.
　　 "Fire!"
　　Gu Yongxiu roared.
　　 The large crossbows and artillery on the city wall were aimed at the blue giant.
The bowstrings of the bed crossbow were pulled apart by the forces of the four soldiers. As the bowstrings were slowly pulled apart, the spells imprinted on the bed crossbow's skeleton lit up one by one, and the shimmer of the spells flowed like water, converging to a two-meter-long one. Heavy arrow up.
　　 As the bowstring is full, the shimmering light condenses on the heavy arrow. The two-meter-long heavy arrow bursts out with dazzling light, as if it is composed of pure light.
　　 "Beng! Beng! Beng!"
　　 Two-meter-long heavy arrows roared out, like streams of light, shooting towards the cyan giant.
　　 "Boom! Boom! Boom!"
　　 At the same time, the artillery, also blessed by the formation, shot out burning fireballs, like dazzling meteorites.
　　The army of Dafeng is not as powerful as the barbarians; the number is not as good as the witch gods who can manipulate the corpses; the flexibility is not as good as the treacherous and difficult Gu clan army; the mid-to-high-level combat power is even worse than the Buddha.
　　Ran, Dafeng can occupy the Central Plains and dominate the Kyushu region. It used to rely on Confucianism. When Confucianism led the court, the positions of commander of the three armies and general army were usually held by scholars of Confucianism.
　　 The famous Confucian generals in history are basically from Yunlu Academy.
　　 Confucian generals are both proficient in the art of war, using their soldiers like gods, but they can also fight off the battle by themselves.
　　 Confucianism has not fallen behind, Sitianjian’s magical weapons have taken on the heavy responsibility. Heavy killing magical weapons and firearms are the foundation of Dafeng’s survival. Especially when defending the city, it can be called a meat grinder.
　　 The heavy arrows exuding dazzling light and the fireballs like meteorites kept bombing on the blue giant.
　　 Ji Li Zhigu hardly carried heavy arrows and artillery that could easily kill the sixth-rank martial artist. With every rumbling, his body would tremble.
　　 But he did not evade, and even took the initiative to welcome the baptism of heavy arrows and artillery, and wielded a huge sword to disperse the terrible arrows and meteors. These attacks are not a problem for him, but they will bring disaster to the cavalry behind him.
　　 Even so, after one round of bombardment, there were still more than a hundred elite cavalry sacrifices.
　　 Approaching Chuzhou City less than two hundred meters away, Geely Zhigu’s knees sank sharply, and when the ground collapsed, his body leaned and crashed into the city wall.
　　 The strong wind screamed, and the two-foot-high cyan figure was wrapped in the energy of Peimo, as if it could crash a mountain.
　　 No, it can indeed crash a mountain.
　　 At this time, the Zhenbei King on the tower moved, and bang, he rose into the sky among the shattering stone bricks. The scarlet cloak was strongly encouraged. When he jumped to the highest point, he drew his long knife.
　　 held up high.
　　 Immediately afterwards, Zhenbei Wang swooped down and cut out with a long knife.
　　 Although he is alone, he gives everyone a sense of oppression.
　　 The cyan giant had to stop the collision posture, stabilize his figure, and the giant sword fiercely fought back, slashing the King of the North in the sky.
　　 Boom!
　　 Between heaven and earth, loud noises are like Hong Zhong Da Lu.
　　 The tide-like air machine is circular rippling, like dozens of cannons detonated, and the shock wave spreads in mid-air.
The cavalry of the Qingyan Tribe below 　　 escaped by chance, and curses were lit up on the walls of the city wall, forming an invisible barrier to block the aftermath of the air.
　　 Zhenbei Wang flew up again, fell back to the tower, holding a long knife, Yuan Zhao Yuezhi.
　　 "Zhenbei King, God of War!"
　　Guo Yongxiu raised his weapon and shouted.
　　 "Zhenbei King, God of War."
　　 "Zhenbei King, God of War..."
　　 On the wall, the soldiers shouted, united as one, full of confidence in the king of Zhenbei, and respected as gods.
　　...........
　　 At the gate of the north city, in the boundless wilderness outside the city, a behemoth appeared at the end of the horizon. Its body was red, without scales, and its one-eyed forehead was like a golden sun.
　　 The scarlet giant snake wandered close to the ground, rolling up the dust slowly.
　　 Behind it is a dense army of monsters. There are floods, black scale tigers, unicorn lizards, and apes...
　　 On top of its head, the black and heavy poultry army swept across the sky and the ground quickly.
　　 The soldiers on the city wall were expressionless, their faces were not afraid, nor nervous, they fired crossbows, artillery, or bent hard bows to attack the birds that hovered in the air.
　　 The bird whose arrow fell was originally dead, but in the process of falling, suddenly opened its scarlet eyes, flapped its wings again, and culled its companions.
　　The monster army who died of artillery fire and crossbow arrows also got up again, biting their companions, even the scarlet python.
　　 Before the monster army rushed to the city, there was a small-scale chaos in itself.
　　 "Beng Beng Beng Beng..."
　　 Heavy arrows shot out, automatically ignoring the monster army, and the target was the red giant python. They did not walk in a straight line, but a curve, and attacked the same target.
　　 Seven inches from the giant python.
　　 is like an invisible hand, flicking heavy arrows and artillery fire to make them aim at weak points.
　　 The giant python is large in size and brings overwhelming power. At the same time, it also shows the disadvantage of not being flexible enough to avoid heavy arrows and artillery.
　　 Although he won't suffer severe damage, the seven inches of steel nails seem to be embedded in flesh and blood, and the pain is unbearable.
　　 "Oh..."
　　 It raised its head, cracked its blood basin, and opened its mouth like a dark red black hole. The one eye on its forehead trembled again and again, violently ejecting a golden light, and hitting the wall.
　　 The wall pattern lights up, and the invisible barrier stress emerges.
　　The golden light hit the barrier, arousing fine light chips, and the wall "clicked" continuously, cracking into numerous small cracks.
　　Since the battle of Shanhaiguan, the Northern Territory ushered in the first large-scale battle. There were three Level 3 masters who participated in the battle, and there was an unknown master hidden in the dark.
　　...........
　　 In the city of Chuzhou, a well-known person from the rivers and lakes rushed out of the inn and the house and looked in the direction of the city gate in shock.
　　 The booming artillery sound, the clear chord of the bed crossbow, the sound of horse hooves, the roar of the guards of the city wall... and the terrible fluctuations of energy from the high-ranking power.
　　 These are clearly heard and felt by the people in the city, making them inevitably fearful, and they just want to hide under the bed and shiver.
　　 "What's the matter, the barbarians came to Chuzhou City?"
　　 "Damn, these barbarians dare to hit Chuzhou City, do they want to go to a full-scale war with Dafeng?"
　　 "Go, let's go to the wall and defend the city together."
　　 At the entrance of the largest restaurant in Chuzhou City, several people from the rivers and lakes jumped and scolded. At this time, they saw the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper, and walked out of the inn with a dull expression.
　　 Seeing the houses on the street, the local residents came out stupidly. Their faces were pale, their eyes were hollow, and they lacked aura, like walking corpses.
　　 More and more people walked out of the house and came to the street, looking at the sky with a dull expression.
　　 Above their heads, a stream of fine blood spilled out, floated to the sky, and then gathered in one place, condensing into a huge ball of blood.
　　 And in their bodies, black shadows were pulled out and sank to the ground. In the process, the black shadows kept struggling and wailed:
　　 "So I'm already dead..."
　　 "I'm dead? I'm dead!!"
　　 "Unwilling, unwilling..."
　　 Everywhere in the city, the civilians and people from the rivers and lakes who entered Chuzhou City after the massacre witnessed such a terrible scene, and their hearts were cold.
　　 The people in Chuzhou City are dead?
　　 Then who did they talk to, who talked to, and whom did they spend day and night with for more than a month?
　　 It turns out that we have lived in a ghost town for more than a month...
　　 Great fear exploded in the hearts of the few living people left.
　　 in the post.
　　 All the members of the mission came to the street with trepidation and looked at the pale human figures, standing silently, looking up at the sky.
　　 A wave of blood drew away from their heads and poured into the air; black shadows peeled from their bodies and were drawn into the ground.
　　 Yang Yan murmured, "It turns out that the place where the blood slaughtered three thousand miles was Chuzhou City."
　　 "Beast!"
　　 With a sudden roar, Dali Temple Cheng fell to his knees, tears bursting out.
"Chuzhou has a population of 380,000, and 380,000 resentful souls...Throughout the 600 years of Dafeng, no one has committed such atrocities. This official, this official wants to return to Beijing to impeach Huai. Wang, you will die till you die."
　　 He clenched his fists and beat the ground hard, "Ah", and started crying.
Liu Yushi's lips trembled, "How dare he, how dare he... As the Prince of Dafeng, he is loved by the people of the North, and he is respected by the people of the North. How can he act on these innocent people? King Huai's death is not enough to cherish, and his death is not enough to cherish..."
　　 Chen catches his head with red eyes, and his hand holding the knife trembles constantly.
　　 Yang Yan looked at them, slightly moved.
　　 These civil servants are sneaky and sneaky, and love to intrigue, but they are not completely morally degraded, and they still have a complex nurtured by sages.
　　 is both bad and good.
　　 Chen Catcher gritted his teeth and said, "What on earth does Duke Huai want to do?"
　　 Yang Yan pondered and said, "Maybe I will be promoted to the second rank, this is my guess."
　　 was promoted to the second grade...Dali Temple Cheng, two yushi, and Chen Datou were taken aback.
　　 If, if Duke Huai really used this to promote the second rank, then, even if they expose the matter, will the emperor condemn him for impeachment?
　　 Can the princes deal with Duke Huai?
　　 What is the concept of a second-rank martial artist? Dafeng hasn't had a second-rank martial artist for 300 years.
　　 Looking at Kyushu, the second-rank martial arts have disappeared, at least what the northern barbarians and monsters are.
　　 If Duke Huai can be promoted to the second rank, is it still a crime to kill the city? Even if it is a sin, who has the power to punish him?
　　 I am afraid that your majesty and the princes can only pinch their noses to recognize them. And once your Majesty compromises with the princes, even if it is to supervise, he can only focus on the overall situation.
　　 Is it worth using the lives of 380,000 people to exchange for a second-grade?
　　 is very worthwhile.
　　 Liu Yushi took a deep breath, "If Duke Huai is promoted to the second rank, I will splash the Jinluan Temple with blood to die."
　　 Chen caught his head and said solemnly: "No one can stop him? Who can stop the Zhenbei King in the north..."
　　 Yang Yan shook his head: "In the North, who can be stronger than Zhenbei King?"
　　 is gone.
　　 No one can stop the Zhenbei King, no one in Chuzhou can be a stumbling block to the Zhenbei King's promotion.
　　 Nobody can do it, the mission can’t~EbookFREE.me~ Jianghu Wufu can’t do it, they can only watch Zhenbei Wang get promoted.
　　 Chen Cattle suddenly said: "I suddenly regret that Xu Qi'an is not strong enough..."
　　 From the eyes of everyone else, he laughed at himself: "I used to be jealous of him in the Buddhism fighting method. I was jealous of him overpowering outstanding disciples in the battle between heaven and man, so he was out in the limelight. But now, I only hate him for his lack of cultivation.
　　 "Because if it were him, he would never sit idly by. Even now, he has drawn his sword against King Huai. Right, Yang Jinluo."
　　 Everyone looked at Yang Yan.
　　 Yang Yan was in a daze. He didn't know what he was thinking of. He sighed and said, "Weigong said that his biggest shortcoming is his courage. No matter if he killed his superiors with a sword, or he was alone in Yunzhou against the rebels."
　　 Yes, that man is a hob meat, a stone in a pit, smelly and hard.
　　 Civil officials who hated him often said: Sooner or later this person will pay for his temper.
　　 But, sometimes, it is just such a person who becomes the "savior" in their hearts, the person they hope to scream at some time.
　　 Liu Yushi murmured: "The first emperor was wrong. If Dafeng really has a guardian general, I think it is Xu Qi'an, not Duke Huai."
　　 Unfortunately, he is still immature and has not grown up yet.
　　 Dali Temple Cheng gave a vicious expression: "The official now only hopes that the barbarians will break the city and behead the king of Zhenbei. If no one can stop Dafeng, let the barbarians come."
