The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly.
From conquering Weicheng to being besieged in Weicheng.
It only took one day.
Bai Ze didn't find Yu Youwei.
By the time he returned to the main square in the inner city, Zhao Dun's pre-battle speech was coming to an end.
In a short period of time, the officers and soldiers of the three armies were inspired by Cheng Guogong to regain their morale. They looked excited and shouted loudly.
"Seventy years ago, the 60,000 Jin army was wiped out in Dushan. The first general in the national war was nothing more than that!" Zhao Dun's true energy transmitted the message, and all the soldiers of the three armies heard his voice, "Now seventy years have passed, those How ridiculous it is for the dead defeated army and their defeated generals to want to come back!"
"Seventy years ago, before Xian Zhen came to our country of Dayan, he buried the three armies with his own hands and died once. Seventy years later, when he stepped into our country of Dayan, we will tell him that he will never come back. He will be under Wei City. Die again!" Zhao Dun raised his arms and shouted, "God bless Dayan, he will win!!"
"God bless Dayan, he will win!!"
"God bless Dayan, he will win!!"
"God bless Dayan, he will win!!"
All the soldiers of the three armies raised their arms and shouted loudly, and the sound was like a wave, rolling incessantly.
When Mu Chen heard the news, he immediately went to find Bai Ze and asked him what was going on.
Yesterday, the assassin's poisonous blade made the formerly charming Prince Heyang look pale. Obviously, the situation was not as easy as he said last night.
"Are the 100,000 troops outside the city really the Jin army that was destroyed in Dushan seventy years ago?" Mu Chen asked him, "I heard that Taoist magic is unpredictable, could it be a deception?"
Bai Ze shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I have been with my master since I was a child. When it comes to Taoism, my master cannot be called the best, but he is still a first-class Taoist master. Although my eyes are not as good as those of his master. The eyes of heaven are not blind either.”
Mu Chen looked ugly, "The army that has been dead for seventy years has left Dushan. Damn it, is there such a weird thing in the world?"
The prince was completely confused.
He, Mu Chen, had never believed in ghosts and gods in his life, but now he had to believe in them.
"What does Xian Zhen, who is known as the number one general in the national war, look like?" Mu Chen asked.
"I have been dead for seventy years, what else can I do?" Bai Ze said, "I have no human appearance. If I have to say it, I can only describe it as a zombie."
"This is too shabby." Mu Chen curled his lips.
"I hope his strength is as shabby as his appearance." Bai Ze didn't believe what he said, "otherwise we will all have to play it out."
"By the way, where is Miss Yu? Are you still in Weicheng?" Mu Chen suddenly asked.
Bai Ze was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Last night she said that she would leave the city and return to Heyang early this morning, and would set off back to Song Kingdom soon. I hope she didn't have time to leave the city, otherwise..."
Bai Ze didn't finish his words.
Mu Chen frowned, looking quite worried, and said absently: "I hope so."
Early the next morning, Bai Ze witnessed the strength of the unimpressive number one general in the national war.
The 50,000 sergeants in Weicheng faced a hundred thousand ghost soldiers. Few of them were big enough to sleep peacefully, and almost all of them were waiting for danger.
When the brightness of the morning star in the night was at its weakest, Xian Zhen's 100,000-strong army and buglers blew the rallying horn for the siege.
"Woo!——"
The powerful and desolate horns pierced the dawn. Under the orders of the three armies, the horns came and went one after another, forming a ghostly sea of sound.
The whole city of Weicheng heard the horn of a hundred thousand ghost soldiers attacking.
"Finally here." Zhao Dun pressed his sword, took a deep breath, and ordered: "Send the order to the three armies to defend Weicheng!"
"The three armies obey the order and stick to Weicheng!" He ordered the troops to march and mount their horses to deliver the order.
"Boom, boom, boom!——"
War drums thundered, and shouts of death rose into the sky. The fifty thousand defenders of Weicheng roared loudly, as if this could dispel the fear deep in their hearts.
Outer city.
The tide-like army was in darkness, silently pushing towards the city wall. There was no shouting, only the horns of attack kept blowing.
This is a silent army.
But it brings a kind of pressure to all living people that is more terrifying than the scream.
Because they are not afraid of death, they are already dead.
On top of the city tower, Zhao Dun personally supervised the battle. Chen Deng, Bai Ze, and Lu Zheng were all at the top of the city and witnessed the army of the dead rushing towards Weicheng.
The number one general in the national war, the man who was called the leader of the four war gods by King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, sat arrogantly on the skeleton war horse, holding the sword with one hand, and his scarlet eyes stared quietly at the top of the city of Weicheng lined with armored warriors.
"The three armies obey the order, and the bows are full!" Chen Deng roared an order from a hundred feet away.
At the top of Weicheng City, three thousand crossbowmen filled their bows with flaming arrows tilting upward, pointing towards the iron cloud-covered northern sky.
"Fire the arrow!" Chen Deng ordered.
"Shua!!——"
The uniform sound was like a huge long knife sweeping over everyone's heads.
Three thousand flaming feather arrows were thrown out, like a phoenix resurrected in ancient times, fluttering its wings and swooping into the dark craze!
No screams.
There were only rows and rows of ghost soldiers nailed to the cold ground by burning arrows. Some broke free and continued to move forward, some were directly scattered by the huge force, and some burned while running, bringing the flames to more people. The master of silence.
"Drum!" Zhao Dun ordered.
"Dong, dong, dong, dong dong!——"
This was the signal for the second round of attack. Zhu Shiwu, the rear army general, heard the sound of drums. Under the inner city, a huge catapult was ready, and the huge catapult was filled with stones weighing thousands of kilograms.
Those were all the great achievements of the Heyang Army in the previous siege of the city. Now it is used to fight back Xian Zhen's 100,000 ghost soldiers.
"Get ready, let go!" Zhu Shiwu drew his sword and ordered. Hearing thunderous thunder, meteorites rose into the sky above Weicheng, swooped down with the strong wind, and smashed into the dark frenzy.
"boom!!--"
The boulders rolled and overturned countless ghost soldiers.
But this is still a drop in the bucket.
The black army was approaching the city wall.
"Crossbowmen, release!" Chen Deng ordered.
A second volley of arrows was fired.
Thousands of troops fell again.
Round three.
Round 4.
Round five.
After five rounds of arrow rain, the three thousand crossbowmen at the top of the city were approaching their limit. Zhao Dun waved his hand and could no longer fire arrows, because the feathered arrows could not stop Xian Zhen's army from attacking the city, and hand-to-hand combat had become inevitable.
They need to conserve their strength to fight for their lives.
"boom!!--"
The second round of catapults flew over the heads of the 5,000 men and horses defending the city, and rushed into the enemy's position.
In the center of the black craze, the world-famous general from seventy years ago watched as a huge section of the city wall was thrown over, heading straight in front of him.
He didn't move.
Bai Ze stared at him intently.
Ten feet.
He still didn't move.
Three feet!
He still didn't move.
But that section of the city wall moved, and suddenly fell apart, exploded, and rushed in all directions.
Sword energy crisscrossed the area, but the general was not seen drawing his sword immediately.
The general who should have been thrown off his horse was completely innocent.
The ghost soldiers began to climb towards the Weicheng tower.
The defenders at the top of the city smashed down everything they could, and then the whole army fell silent, only the sound of silent swords being drawn could be heard.
"Thousands of miles of smoke and smoke chaos the world,
Who fights in life?
Three thousand silver armors facing the sun and moon,
Don’t ask about merit, ask about ghosts! "
On top of the city tower, Chen Deng, the leader of the Silver Armor Army, read a poem.
When the officers and soldiers of the three armies heard this, their blood boiled with passion, their pride and ambition surged into the sky with anger.
Without giving an order, the soldiers of the three armies spontaneously recited the poem. For a moment, the sound at the top of Weicheng City was astonishing, covering the blood-curdling sound of a hundred thousand ghost soldiers climbing the wall.
Thousands of miles of smoke and smoke turmoil the world, who is fighting in this lifetime? Three thousand silver armors are facing the sun and the moon, not asking about merits and deeds, but about ghosts and gods!
The world is in chaos, and as a general, you can act as a warrior and an iron horse, and you can swallow thousands of miles like a tiger! Let’s not ask about meritorious deeds after traveling three thousand miles on horseback. Let’s look at the number of soldiers who are wrapped in horse leather behind you and me. They will stay on the blood-stained battlefield forever and never go home again.
"Fight to the death." Zhao Dun said.
"Fight to the death!" Chen Deng said.
"Fight to the death!!" the soldiers of the three armies shouted hoarsely.
The dense army of the dead, piled one on top of another, piled on top of each other, piled up like a hill on the outside of the Weicheng city wall, stepping on each other to climb up.
Finally, the first ghost soldier climbed up the tower.
It was a skeleton with dried flesh and blood, covered in tattered iron armor, and the sword in his hand was black with rust.
"Since the ancient sage Yu Emperor Jiuding established the Jiuzhou, yin and yang have been fixed, and the law of heaven and earth has been established." Zhao Dun said, "The anode above is the sky, and the cathode below is the earth. Jiuzhou has a history of tens of millions of years, and cholera has been endless, but there has never been an inversion of yin and yang. , the principle of heaven and earth going against the law!"
"The way of heaven is clear, how can the living be afraid of the dead?!" When Chen Deng heard this, he glared angrily, swept the black-gold halberd, and immediately knocked the ghost soldier to pieces.
"General Chen's words make sense." Bai Ze drew his sword and looked at the army of the dead that kept climbing up the city. "Since ancient times, people follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature! How can the dead ride on the living On the head?!”
"Yes, kill!" The three armies were furious. "Drive these guys who should be buried in the ground back to their hometowns! Are you afraid of birds?"
Close combat.
…
Meanwhile, the inner city.
The defense formation of Weicheng was carved by Prince Dan of Yan himself three hundred years ago.
Prince Dan is a legendary figure.
At that time, the cavalry of the Great Zhou Dynasty traveled south to the Yin Mountains, crossed the Northern Great Wall, and drove straight into the northern territory of the Yan Kingdom. The Great Zhou cavalry charge in the plains is known as being invincible in the north. No country could keep its military formation from collapsing under the triple charge of the Great Zhou cavalry.
At that time, the commander of the Great Zhou Cavalry was a world-famous general, Ding Zichun.
The Great Zhou cavalry defeated the main force of King Yan in the Beimang Plain, and King Yan was trampled to death by the Great Zhou cavalry. Prince Dan was ordered to lead the remaining troops southward to Hulao Pass to prevent the Great Zhou cavalry from continuing southward.
Ding Zichun was blocked by Prince Dan outside Hulao Pass for a whole year. The armies of both sides began a protracted tug-of-war. At this time, the civil servants and generals who went south petitioned Prince Dan to succeed to the throne.
Prince Dan said: "If the Northern invaders are not destroyed, Dan will not dare to claim the throne."
It took Prince Dan five years to defeat Ding Zichun's army. In the sixth year, Ding Zichun withdrew his troops. In the same year, Prince Dan ascended the throne in Weicheng and carved a protective formation in Weicheng with his own hands.
The formation lasted for three hundred years.
When Prince Dan ascended the throne, his cultivation had reached the realm of extraordinary sages, and Weicheng was also known as Dan City and City of Sages.
At this moment, the inner city's underground city protection hall.
A black shadow pushed open the palace door.
