Chapter 487: Battle
"Besides, do you think I look like a Semu person?" Yi Xifeng said with a smile.
"Then my lord, you are..."
"Zhenwu Dao Hall, here to support the Holy War Hall."
The guard captain suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, and he made a mistake for a long time. But then he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the adult in front of him was easy to talk to. If it had been someone with a bad temper, he might have died in the palace long ago.
"But when you get to the North Gate, don't say that I am from the Zhenwu Dao Palace. Just say that I am the 'Zhenbeitinghou' newly conferred by your king."
"But sir, we don't have a 'Zhenbei Tinghou' here?"
"Now there is."
…………
On the North Gate City, the six generals were quarreling fiercely. Some people advocate opening the city gate and directly fighting the endless barbaric army; others think that the city gate should be defended with a large formation and wait for His Majesty the King to come back before making a decision.
While the argument was getting heated, the door was suddenly kicked open. Everyone turned around and saw the person with a Chinese character face, and beside him was a fair young man wearing a general's robe.
"Captain Tian, why are you here?"
Guo Zi Lian snorted coldly and said: "The Endless Wilderness is attacking in a big way. You don't think about how to defeat the enemy, but you are hiding here and arguing. What's the use of you!"
The big man with leopard eyes was dissatisfied and said: "Humph, although Guard Chief Tian is highly skilled, you are only a palace guard after all and have no right to interfere in the affairs of our army."
Others immediately echoed: "Yes, that's right!"
"You are blatantly interfering in military affairs. Be careful, I will sue the king and convict you of disturbing the army!"
The man with the Chinese character suddenly became so angry that he was jealous and his neck was thick. He wanted to suppress it, but there were indeed regulations in the kingdom, and the palace guards were prohibited from getting involved in the military power.
At this time, Yi Xifeng patted him on the shoulder and said, "There is a saying that goes, political power comes from the barrel of a gun!"
After saying that, Yi Xifeng stepped forward, and a powerful coercion swept over him instantly. Before the six generals in front of him could react, they felt their heads sink, and they immediately half-knelt on the ground. The aura of the hero realm suppressed them. On them, it was difficult for them to even lift their heads.
"I am the newly appointed Marquis of Zhenbeiting by His Majesty the King. Now I will take over the military power of the North Gate! Do you have any objections?"
When the six generals saw that the visitor was in the realm of heroes, they did not dare to doubt him and nodded in agreement one after another.
Yi Xifeng pretended to snort coldly, and then removed the pressure, allowing the six generals to breathe.
The Chinese-character face was relieved when he saw this, and even felt a little secretly happy. However, when he recalled Yi Xifeng's words, he felt a little awkward.
"Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Why is it the barrel of a gun and not a sword?"
Guozi Lian didn't know that the "gun barrel" Yi Xifeng meant was a musket, not a cold weapon like a spear.
After arranging the army, Yi Xifeng stood at the top of the city and looked into the distance. The opponent was not too close to the north gate. They were just attacking from a distance with catapults. I have to say that the catapults on the opposite side were really huge, and the catapults were big enough. It is seven or eight stories high. It can be thrown hundreds of meters high and more than ten miles away. It can easily cross the city gate.
However, the other party did not bring many people, only about 50,000 to 60,000 people.
"Why are you hesitating when the other party only has so few people?"
"But the opponent's military strength is nearly twice ours." A general said with a worried look.
"This group of people only dare to hide in the distance and throw fireballs. They don't even dare to approach the city gate. Even if there are 50,000 to 60,000 people, they are just soldiers and generals, opening the city to meet the enemy!"
"yes."
Two generals were still reluctant, but they still obeyed the order.
Under the North City, the Black Iron Gate was slowly opened, and six generals led six armies on horseback to rush out one after another and lined up in front of the city gate.
Yi Xifeng was not proficient in military formations, but as the saying goes, "Capture the thief first, capture the king first." As long as the leader of the opponent is captured, the so-called army will naturally be defeated.
…………
In a tent...
"Uncle Lao is escorting you during this attack on the city. Let me propose a toast first."
After saying that, the richly dressed young man drank the wine from the copper cup in one gulp, but the middle-aged man in silver armor beside him still closed his eyes and paid no attention to him.
The man in silver armor had a pair of angry eyebrows and a cross sword hung at his waist. His appearance was calm and intimidating.
The gorgeous young man did not blame the other party. After all, in terms of seniority, this man was his own uncle. If he had not had a good father to support him, he might not be able to sit on the position of commander of this army.
At this time, a subordinate hurriedly walked into the tent.
"Lord Commander, the enemy has come out of the city."
Hearing this, the gorgeous young man just nodded, then turned to the man in silver armor sitting beside him and said:
"We should report from within the city. The king of Futa Kingdom is not in the royal city. Please help me take down this city so that my nephew can take credit and entertain my uncle."
The man in silver armor opened his eyes, glanced at the people in the tent, and walked out.
He looked at the lazy soldiers around him with a look of disgust on his face, then mounted his horse and led his personal guards straight to the front line.
As soon as the man in silver armor left, the atmosphere in the camp suddenly became lively.
"To be honest, Your Majesty, your uncle does not take you seriously. You toasted to him, but he dared to ignore you."
"Humph, if you ask me to see it, I'm afraid I'm jealous of His Majesty's leadership position."
"That's right."
…
The gorgeous young man shook his wine glass and said:
"Well, as long as we win this battle, the Lord God Envoy will definitely promote us to a higher title. My uncle can still be used at the moment. We should not conflict with him. We will suppress him after he is promoted to viscount. It’s not too late.”
"Let me tell you, even if we don't rely on His Majesty's uncle, we can win the Floating Tower Kingdom. Our 60,000 troops can't deal with their 30,000."
"I'm not afraid of how many soldiers there are on the other side, but just in case. After all, the king of the Floating Tower Kingdom is not low in cultivation."
"Your Majesty, you are right, don't discuss this anymore." Several drunkards echoed: "Come on, come on, keep drinking."
…………
The two armies soon started fighting. Although the Futa Kingdom only sent 30,000 people, they were all the elites that the Futa Kingdom had cultivated over the years. Whether they were fighting alone or facing the enemy in formation, they were inferior to this group of endless desolate soldiers. The barbarian soldiers are much stronger.
Yi Xifeng rushed to the front. His target was not the soldiers, but the catapults. The two dragons in his hands were constantly coiling. With a gentle push from his palms, the two dragons as thick as buckets crashed straight ahead. , directly overwhelming the opponent's military formation.
More than a thousand archers on the left and right wings bent their long bows and charged at Yi Xifeng.
"Fire the arrow!"
"咻咻咻~"
Countless bows and arrows came like a rainstorm, Yi Xifeng drew a circle with one palm, and two swimming dragons circled counterclockwise in front of him. The wind flow turned, and the center of the swimming dragon turned into a large whirlpool several feet wide.
