On Qinghuai City, Wu Gen grabbed a chicken leg and stuck his butt out to watch Meng Shun's army busy.
After a night of preparation, there were many more ladders in the opponent's camp, and these formation-breaking soldiers were doing the final reinforcement of these ladders.
Wu Gen couldn't figure out whether they could use such crude tools to attack the city. But then I thought about it, with more than 2,000 people, could it be possible that they would need some artillery carts and attacking rams? It seems that the formation-breaking soldiers are really not good at attacking cities.
Baoxiang grabbed a big cake and came over, "They are taking off their armor. It seems they are really preparing to attack the city."
These formation-breaking soldiers, who were armed to the teeth, were taking off their heavy armor, leaving only their inner armor. They also put down their long swords and replaced them with light short blades.
Meng Shun also took off his armor and silently looked at the location of the east city gate.
"Eight hundred people attacking the city, I always think it's a bit of a joke." Tudan also walked over and looked at the formation-breakers in the distance with some confusion. As for the wolf soldiers, they were lying on the ground one by one, resting and eating the mutton in front of them.
"No matter what." Wu Gen threw away the chicken bones in his hand and stood up straight, "No matter how playful they are, they will still come and fight. Tell the brothers to prepare. If you can shoot from a long distance, shoot from a long distance. If the opponent comes up on the ladder, pour water on him." Burn it with tung oil. If the opponent has few people and it is impossible to divide the troops to attack the city, then allocate some more people near the east city gate."
In the distance, the sound of drums was heard. With the sound of the drums, the hundreds of green wolves raised their heads and howled. The harsh sound filled the city, making people feel a little restless.
Soon, eight hundred formation-breaking soldiers and some wolf soldiers rushed towards the east city gate. Someone in the middle was carrying a long ladder, and Meng Shun was the first one holding a big sword.
Wu Gen took a look and saw that Meng Shun had dispatched nearly 1,200 men and horses at once. In addition to the formation-breaking soldiers who were the main attackers, the bow-wielding soldiers of the wolf soldiers were also closely following.
"Beat the drum." Wu Gen ordered. On the city wall, the fearless soldiers unstrung their crossbows and placed the rolling logs under the female wall.
Soon, Meng Shun's men were only two hundred steps away from the city wall, and the entire team was like a broad arrow, piercing straight towards Qinghuai City. But what's strange is that each of these front-row formation-breaking soldiers is carrying a box, and they don't know what weird things are hidden inside.
"Let go." Following Zhang Wuyang's order, dense arrows flew out from the top of the city, covering the opponent's head like rain.
From time to time, someone fell on the charging road, but the others didn't even look at them. They didn't slow down their speed at all, and rushed towards the city wall with all their strength.
"No, it seems difficult for arrows to hit these formation-breaking soldiers." Lexi suddenly shouted, with a surprised look on her face. He was good at archery, and he had already noticed something was wrong just now. After he shot an arrow with his own hands, his discovery was indeed confirmed.
After hearing this, everyone quickly looked at the formation breaker soldiers under the wall. Sure enough, some arrows fell on the sides of the formation breaker soldiers, as if they had an invisible layer of armor on their bodies. The arrows slid sideways, but the formation breaker soldiers themselves did not. There is no damage.
Of course, not all arrows are like this. Those that are powerful and hit the front of the body can also hit these formation-breaking soldiers, but the damage is much smaller.
Those who really fell were mostly the wolf soldiers who shot arrows at the wall to fight back. It seems that these formation-breaking soldiers must have secret techniques to resist the opponent's attacks and reduce physical damage. No wonder Meng Shun dared to attack the city with 800 men.
"Use a powerful crossbow and throw a log. I don't believe you can't kill them." Wu Gen gritted his teeth.
Soon, rows of crossbows fired out long arrows, whizzing towards the enemy soldiers who were approaching quickly below the city. No matter how powerful the secret technique is, there is a limit. This time, even the formation-breaking soldiers were unable to withstand such an attack, and many people were nailed to the ground on the spot.
The spiked rolling wood fell from the towering wall and rolled towards the formation-breaking soldiers. Wherever it passed, a passage paved with flesh and blood was formed.
Despite suffering such heavy casualties, these formation-breaking soldiers did not even blink an eyelid. They were as calm as stones, stepping on the flesh and blood of their own robes and quickly approaching the city wall.
Wu Gen lowered his head to avoid the arrows flying over his head. The wolf soldiers' arrows had already been thrown to the top of the city, and he was struggling to cover his men as they approached the city wall.
In the blink of an eye, Meng Shun had led the formation-breakers to a place less than thirty steps away from the city wall. The ladder had been erected and was stretching towards the top of the wall.
"Set rockets." Lexi yelled, directing his men to shoot rockets at the ladders. As long as these ladders were burned down, it would be impossible for more than a thousand people to jump up except for some high-level practitioners.
Some ladders caught fire due to arrows in them. Such improvised ladders had not been soaked in cloudy water, so naturally they were not fireproof.
Wu Gen breathed a sigh of relief and saw how these people climbed the city without the ladder.
Suddenly, Wu Gen's eyes widened and he stared at the city with a look of disbelief. The formation-breaking soldiers in the front row suddenly leaned forward, and long ropes with flying claws shot out from the boxes on their backs.
The skin of these ropes is dark, obviously made of some kind of fine iron, and they are not afraid of fire.
The flying claws firmly grasped the top of the wall. These formation-breaking soldiers placed the boxes on their backs on the ground, took out the steel drill and inserted it into the box, and then smashed the steel drill deeply into the soil with a sledgehammer. In this way, the remaining ladders were put on these ropes to form a row of cable bridges.
This can be done, Wu Gen lamented in his heart. He originally thought that the other party came from afar and lacked the means to attack the city, but he did not expect that he had hidden such a method.
For this expedition, Wu Gen's preparation focused on how to deal with the wolf soldiers. He never expected that the Meng family would have such a powerful force.
"Come on." Meng Shun shouted violently. The formation-breaking soldiers behind them held steel knives in their mouths, held shields in their hands, and grabbed the ropes to climb up quickly.
Seeing the formation-breaking soldiers rising as fast as apes, the fearless soldiers on the wall took a breath of air. No wonder the formation-breaking soldiers could occupy a place in Kuntian Continent. Such brave men would not even dare to encounter them even if they were heavily ridden. Words can win.
"Throw the rolling wood on the rope, don't stop the arrows, drive them down." Zhang Wuyang shouted loudly, waking up the shocked Fearless Army.
The rolling logs were thrown towards the iron rope one after another, and the bows and arrows shot like crazy towards the soldiers who broke the formation. The sound of the arrows breaking through the air was so dense that it was like a new wind blowing through the canyon.
There were also some fearless soldiers who braved the constant arrows from the city and tried their best to chop at the ropes with their swords and axes, and soon cut off seven or eight of them.
From time to time, people fell from the iron rope and were smashed into pieces by rolling logs. On the city walls, on the iron ropes, and on the ground, human flesh, blood and internal organs were everywhere.
In front of Qinghuai City, it turned into a Shura field in the blink of an eye. Young lives quickly withered under the fortified city and turned into a pool of flesh and blood, providing nutrients for the withered yellow weeds that stubbornly grew at the base of the wall.
At this moment, Wu Gen saw a row of formation-breaking soldiers leaping high, reaching half the height of the city wall. These should be those with higher cultivation among the formation-breaking soldiers. Although they cannot jump to the top of the wall, they can still jump half as high as the wall.
While they were puzzled, another row of formation-breaking soldiers jumped up, just onto the shoulders of Pao Ze in the air. Using this fulcrum, these people finally jumped onto the wall.
The two work in perfect harmony, and the timing, direction, and strength of the jump are all just right. It was this sudden change that changed the situation where the formation-breaking soldiers were passively beaten.
These formation-breaking soldiers who climbed onto the wall immediately rushed towards the iron cable bridge in small groups, and fiercely attacked the fearless troops on the wall.
As soon as they met, the gap between the Fearless Army and their opponents was immediately apparent. These formation-breaking soldiers were tall and powerful, and their attacks were fierce. In addition, these people had secret body protection, so the fearless army in front of them quickly suffered a big loss. In one encounter, dozens of people died at the hands of these formation-breaking soldiers. It takes almost five lives to exchange for one life of the other party.
Chaos arose on the top of the wall. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the formation-breaking soldiers under the city wall climbed up on the chain bridge one after another.
"Don't mess around, push past, there are few of them." Baoxiang shouted at the top of his lungs, grabbed a shield, and took the lead in rushing towards the formation-breaking soldiers on the wall.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Baoxiang roared loudly, holding his two hands firmly against the shield, pushing the three formation-breaking soldiers in front of him to retreat step by step, and waving axes and hammers with his other two hands to resist the opponent's attack.
"Go down." With a loud roar, Baoxiang used his own strength to push the three formation-breaking soldiers out of the wall and fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing that this method was effective, the eyes of the other fearless soldiers also lit up. Yes, although your troops are overwhelming when you break the formation, you can't hold up the wall because you have so many people.
Everyone raised their shields one after another, formed a shield wall, and crowded towards the formation-breaking soldiers who kept climbing up the wall. Even though these people tried their best to fight back, facing this airtight shield wall, there were still fewer people in Biyi. They were pushed back step by step to the base of the wall, and squeezed with those Pao Ze who had just climbed to the top of the city along the chain bridge. together.
"Haha." Baoxiang laughed wildly and strode forward with his shield on his head, "Throw these dogs to death."
But something strange happened again under the city. The wolf soldiers who were raising their heads and shooting arrows each took out a white wolf-head-shaped horn from their bodies and blew it with all their strength.
The low and penetrating wolf howl sounded, quickly spreading across the city and reaching the ears of every fearless soldier. For a moment, everyone was stunned, as if they saw countless wolves as big as giant elephants appearing in the sky, roaring and rushing towards them.
The ferocious face, the bared fangs, and the tongue dripping with blood, everything is so lifelike and lifelike that it makes people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts, and they cannot resist at all.
The sound of the horn rushed through people's minds. Many people looked pale, and some of them were weak-willed. They even threw their weapons on the spot and fell to the ground unconscious.
No, it's soul magic. Wu Gen is not afraid of the invasion of these evil wolves. Although he has not practiced the Duan Jue for a long time, his soul power is so rich that ordinary people cannot compare.
"Broken." Wu Gen roared at the city, with a hint of soul power in his voice, which actually sounded like a wake-up call.
The roar suppressed the howling of the wolf, and finally the fearless army came to their senses and hurriedly reorganized their defense.
But it was this short period of distraction that allowed the formation-breakers to regain the upper hand and follow the gaps in the shield wall to fight back towards the Fearless Army. On the city wall, the fearless army retreated step by step, gradually giving way to the iron cable bridge. 33
Faced with the decline of his men, Wu Gen did not take action because at this time, there was a person under the city who had firmly locked onto him.
Meng Shun's expressionless face now showed a hint of a sinister smile, and he made a throat-cutting gesture towards Wu Gen.
"Take your life." He stepped hard with his feet, and his body rose from the ground, like a rock, hitting Wu Gen at the top of the city.
Some people died, but not completely...
