"Instruct all camps, regardless of life or death, whoever can kill and capture the traitor Liu Yufei alive will be rewarded with thousands of gold and be granted the title of Marquis of ten thousand households!"
Emperor Guangde pointed to the sky. The giant python came from the sky, and Liu Yufei was like a small black dot, crawling behind the basalt giant python.
Strips of orange-red flames burned raging on the north bank of the Han River. The vanguard troops that had crossed the river to attack the city were instantly swallowed up by the fire. The carriage ladders pushed to the front and the pontoon bridge built across the river were ignited by the fire.
The continuous wooden siege equipment soon caused a bigger fire. At this time, the northwest wind started, and the fire took advantage of the wind to roast the Qi army for several miles. Only a few huge rocks were left on the bare river beach. The infantrymen gathered around the boulder, aimed their guns at the giant python whizzing overhead, and pulled the trigger angrily.
Thousands of lead bullets were fired into the sky, like a brilliant aurora or a swarm of flying bees, tearing apart all living things in the sky. Several reconnaissance hot air balloons sent by the defenders were instantly torn into pieces.
The eldest princess was riding on the neck of the basalt python, with one hand holding a piece of spitted out snake scales, and with one hand pointing at the earth dotted with stars, she suddenly lifted up, and the snake's body rose into the air and disappeared among the clouds.
"boom!"
The ships sailing into the Han River also joined in the bombardment of the giant python, and the wide river surface was instantly shrouded in white smoke.
The undead knights divided their eight horses and rode around the emperor's banner, protecting Emperor Guangde in the center.
When Liu Kan saw this, he disapproved and said: "I am the emperor, and I inherit the destiny of heaven. I have the protection of heaven. I don't need any guards. You can just cross the river and kill the enemy!"
Yeheala Sebori said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is the emperor, but you are also made of flesh and blood. Wherever the dragon's breath comes, not a blade of grass will grow. We can protect your Majesty with armor."
The blue flame flashed in the undead knight's helmet, like a will-o'-the-wisp, and flickered on and off as his emotions rose and fell as he spoke.
"Didn't you see that the carriages and armors displayed on the other side were all burned by the fire? How could you be spared?"
Yeheala Sebori said calmly: "Holy Lord, we are immortal."
Liu Kan then remembered that the group of undead knights in front of him were all dead people, and dead people were not afraid of death.
He nodded silently and said nothing more.
~~~~~
"Burn!"
Liu Yufei looked down at the battlefield. The giant python passed by the north bank of the Han River, which was full of flames. Dots of dancing fire appeared in the corners of the eldest princess's eyes. They were the soldiers of the Qi army who had not been burned to death, struggling to escape.
The giant python rushed out of the clouds, roared down with the eldest princess on its back, and hit the ground with thunderous force. There were dense jingling sounds all around, and the lead bullets hit the snake's scales, sending out a burst of fireworks.
Liu Yufei subconsciously waved her hand in front of her, as if her slender hands could block lead bullets.
The giant python turned over in the air, leaving its hard back to the enemy.
"Burn!"
Before the eldest princess could finish her words, the Black Tortoise Snake's body began to fall sharply, almost flying at high speed against the surface of the Han River.
A large number of towering ships soon appeared in front of them. The giant python quickly approached the target using the blind spot of the naval gun fire.
As a huge tongue of flame fell from the sky, the warships moored on the river surface were set ablaze one after another. The gunners on the deck worked hard to adjust the firing angle of the ship's guns and bombarded the rapidly approaching cyan python. Dozens of warships fired their artillery, and a dense black barrage bloomed in mid-air. Unfortunately, the python flew too fast and was just a black shadow. flashed before people's eyes. On the contrary, because the firing range was too low, some of the shells directly hit other ships. ….
An angry roar of Xuanwu resounded in the air, and the giant python once again crossed the river and appeared between the two warships. It suddenly turned over, blocked the cannon bombardment with its back scales, raised its thick snake tail, and violently swept away the other ship's gun. mast.
The mast as thick as a bowl was instantly swept down by the python, and the battleship began to disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye. The planks of the hull made an unsettling creaking sound, and the panicked sailors screamed and jumped into the Han River.
By the time other ships reacted and fired in this direction, the giant python had already soared up and disappeared into the thick clouds again.
[In view of the general environment, wait until the smoke clears
Go, everything is silent, only the crackling of the burning deck and the wails of the wounded soldiers.
Everyone looked around and found that the giant python had disappeared without a trace.
"Stop shooting! Stop shooting!"
The captains of each ship gave the order to suspend the attack. The soldiers on the shore also fired all their bullets and looked to the sky in despair.
"Save some bullets! It escaped!" the officers shouted, ordering the soldiers to clean the battlefield, collect ammunition, and transport the wounded soldiers back to the south bank.
On the south bank of the Han River, the guards of the Chinese Army felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. After witnessing the tragic situation of the siege troops, everyone looked ashen. In just one encounter, more than 500 soldiers were burned to death by the giant python, and the injured There are countless more.
Now these people have lost their initial vigor and just want to protect Emperor Guangde from the battlefield safely.
Jiang Liu'er said cautiously: "Your Majesty, this giant python is invulnerable and ferocious. We cannot stay here for a long time. It is better to go back to Nanzhang first and then make further calculations."
Emperor Guangde said angrily: "Where is Deng Changxiong! Bring him to see me! The battle is like this. We only saw casualties among our people. How many rebels died?"
Jiang Liuer raised his telescope and looked at the tragic battlefield on the north bank. He said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the fire on the north bank is not going away. Duke Cheng Guo is probably in danger..."
Liu Kan said angrily: "Let Deng Changxiong come to see me! Before the war started, he said that Xiangyang could be pacified in just ten days without any effort! How many days has the war been going on now! All my people have died!"
"Tell Duke Cheng that if he is not dead, I will attack Xiangyang City immediately! Soldiers, equipment, and I have all been prepared for him, what else does he want!"
"But, Your Majesty, you..."
Emperor Guangde said angrily: "I have the protection of these undead knights, you don't have to worry!"
Jiang Liuer winked at the guard next to him, and the guard immediately took the order and left.
The guard held the imperial order, got on his horse, and the horses' hooves stepped on them. The burnt corpses on the ground instantly turned into dust and scattered in the wind.
The guard stepped onto a newly built pontoon bridge and saw countless black corpses floating on both sides of the bridge. He was shocked by the tragic scene in front of him. He galloped and ran a hundred paces away. Suddenly, he heard the whistling wind in his ears.
The pontoon bridge under the guard's feet suddenly shook violently. Before he could react, there was a roar and the pontoon bridge was cut in half. The giant green python jumped out from the Han River. The small mountain-like snake head was facing the break of the bridge deck. In the next second, the pontoon bridge was cut in half. The man took the place of the horse and swallowed the guard into the belly of the snake. ….
"Fire! Stop the snake! Stop him!"
The soldiers of the Qi army stationed at the front of the south bank shouted in fear. The artillerymen hurriedly loaded the few remaining shells into the barrels. Without waiting for the superior's order, they bombarded the surging python.
"Your Majesty! Let's go!" Jiang Liu'er couldn't help but move forward to pull Liu Kan and retreat.
The eight undead knights stood on their horses, as motionless as withered stones.
The eldest princess on the back of the giant python looked at Liu Kan under the banner a mile away and said word by word: "Burn."
The dragon's breath flame poured down like the Milky Way from the Nine Heavens, pouring on the Qi army camp on the bank of the river. Wherever the flames went, soldiers and horses were either dead or injured. Countless fireballs ran around in the camp, and the screams of men and horses could be heard endlessly, filling the surrounding area. With a strong fishy odor.
"Your Majesty, leave quickly!"
Jiang Liuer knelt down and begged.
Emperor Guangde glared ahead, looking at the giant python and his sister who were gradually approaching, until the dragon's breath flame came around the big banner.
The Chinese guardsmen fled in all directions, with only Jiang Liuer and eight undead knights still standing around the emperor.
"Since it is God's will, I will die without regrets!"
The silk tassels on the large scroll were burning brightly. Liu Kan opened his arms, and his hands could already feel the burning heat of the dragon's breath.
At this moment, a complete chill suddenly filled the surrounding area.
When he opened his eyes, the dragon's breath flame flowing to his feet stopped unexpectedly.
Yeheala Sebori slowly walked towards the flames. Wherever his steps went, the flames under his feet were extinguished instantly.
He raised a sharp green spear and aimed it at the fire-breathing basalt python.
Throw it out with force. .
