In Deng Yu's eyes, Liu Xiu's clouds became thinner, and the auspicious golden clouds that originally shot straight into the sky were mostly weakened, leaving only a small amount of energy that could barely pull the clouds that were constantly coming from the southwest.
Just as Liu Xiu said before using his magical power, no matter what the outcome was after the last fight, he paid a heavy price and could no longer stabilize his position as emperor.
"His Majesty!"
Deng Yu felt a little sad at this time. The generation of wise kings who created the Eastern Han Dynasty for two hundred years will soon be gone.
I'm afraid that Liu Xiu will never be seen again in the world of China.
His longevity and vitality were greatly reduced, and he had to give up the throne... Liu Xiu's lifelong achievements were almost in vain. Fortunately, the Eastern Han Dynasty can be integrated with the Western Han Dynasty. Apart from Liu Xiu's losses, others still have the opportunity to continue to make contributions and compete on the battlefield.
Liu Xiu slowed down, pushed Wang Ba's arm away, took two steps forward to the battlements, and looked towards the battlefield in the distance.
At this moment, the meteorite he summoned has fallen.
The earth-shattering shock caused Hulao Pass to sway a little, but the direct damage caused by such a huge momentum was not as much as expected.
The fire splashed by the falling meteorite continued to extinguish, and the space gap torn in the sky was quickly healed by the power of heaven and earth.
Liu Xiu's eyes showed obvious disappointment when he saw that the Xia army was still holding on to maintain its formation without collapse despite being attacked by the Sanhe cavalry.
"Unfortunately, the result of the last attempt was somewhat unsatisfactory!"
Liu Xiu's voice became hoarse and he shook his head. Failure to achieve the expected result meant that his last ditch effort had failed.
"Get ready to withdraw!"
"Send an order to Wu Han and Geng Yan and ask them to lead the Sanhe cavalry to break out..."
Liu Xiu's life source was greatly consumed, and his longevity was also greatly affected. However, he could still remain calm, and his ability to govern and lead troops was not weakened or weakened.
After looking at the battlefield ahead, he noticed the backlash that his side would suffer if he missed a hit, and immediately issued a military order.
General Wang Ba immediately took the order.
Just after the Han army changed their flags and conveyed Liu Xiu's order, many Han soldiers on the wall showed surprise, and some pointed at the battlefield in the distance and shouted.
Liu Xiu, Wang Ba, Deng Yu and others looked at it and their expressions also changed.
I saw tens of thousands of elites suddenly dispatched from Daxia's central army, bypassing the frontal battlefield where the fighting was the fiercest, circled the battlefield half a circle, and then rushed towards Hulao Pass.
What shocked Liu Xiu and the others the most was that the dragon flag representing the emperor among the troops was fluttering high and making a sound in the strong wind.
"Wang Jing! He actually went into battle himself!"
Deng Yu couldn't help but screamed.
In the shadow of the famous tree, Wang Jing established the Great Xia Dynasty from scratch and defeated powerful enemies one after another to dominate China. Such great achievements made him comparable to Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han in the minds of many famous historical ministers.
It can be said that he is a hero of his generation!
In addition, Wang Jing led troops on many expeditions, and was regarded by many famous generals as an invincible god of war like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.
The Eastern Han Dynasty regarded Daxia as an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. As the prime minister, Deng Yu, after collecting various information about Wang Jing, took the initiative to increase the threat level to Wang Jing.
So when he saw Wang Jing personally taking part in the battle, he unconsciously felt nervous and a little afraid.
But this is normal. The Han army and the Xia army have been fighting against each other for such a long time, and they have been defeated repeatedly, and many generals have been killed. Naturally, there will be some shadows in Deng Yu's heart.
"No, he is taking the opportunity to seize the city!"
Soon, Deng Yu reacted.
Now Wu Han Geng Yan is suppressed and beaten by Han Xin, Yao Qi, Xu Chu, Dian Wei and others are fighting with Fu Youde and Han Qinhu. The strongest general in Guancheng is Wang Ba.
Facing the Emperor of Daxia, it was difficult for them to resist.
"I will cut off the queen myself!"
After Liu Xiu saw the dragon flag leading Daxia, he seemed to have made up his mind and suddenly grabbed Deng Yu's arm.
, said in a deep voice: "Zhonghua, you lead your troops to evacuate immediately, and after returning to Luoyang, immediately send an envoy to Chang'an..."
"My funeral affairs will be entrusted to you!"
"this……"
Deng Yu was shocked by the opponent's almost Tuogu words. At the moment, they only saw Wang Jing coming out of the battle, and the opponent had not yet attacked the wall. Isn't it a little early to say this?
"Why did your majesty say this? If the wall of the pass is broken, we will retreat. Aren't your majesty and us already prepared before? If nothing can be done, we will resist layer by layer and retreat...all the soldiers and horses in the pass have been transferred More than 100,000, Your Majesty suddenly said this, please forgive me for having difficulty accepting the order!"
Deng Yu said in a deep voice.
Liu Xiu smiled and patted Deng Yu's arm, not getting angry because of his words.
"General Fubo once said that a real man should die in the wilderness, his body should be wrapped in horse leather and his ears buried. How can he lie in bed and do evil in the hands of his children?"
"Now that my life span has been severely damaged, even if I retreat to the rear and go to Chang'an, I will just linger on. I don't want to do that."
"If I can die in battle, my visit to China will be in vain...Wang Jing personally goes into battle. As an emperor, how can I just wait for the wind and flee?"
Liu Xiu originally had a plan to withdraw his troops immediately if the attack failed.
However, when he saw Daxia Longqi, he felt some stimulation in his heart and immediately changed his original idea.
Historically, the customs during the Han Dynasty placed emphasis on filial piety and fame, but not on life and death.
Liu Xiu was a rare scholar emperor in history, but he was a scholar who could ride a horse, draw a sword, and fight life and death during the Han Dynasty. When he mounted, he was a general, and when he dismounted, he was a scholar.
The great scholar Lu Zhi who was in Luoyang at that time was a typical example.
Liu Xiu was influenced by the current situation and obviously had a mentality similar to Ma Yuan's.
Once aroused, no one can dissuade him.
Deng Yu and Liu Xiu were fellow townsmen and classmates, and they knew him very well. After seeing the firm look on Liu Xiu's face, they knew that the other party had made up his mind and could not be persuaded.
He hesitated to speak, and finally let out a long sigh.
"I accept your order!"
Deng Yu bowed respectfully.
"Uncle Yuan, let's go too!"
Liu Xiu noticed Wang Ba not far away and said.
Wang Ba shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is visiting the enemy's formation in person. How can you not be protected by a general? I am willing to face the enemy together with Your Majesty... I will die without regrets!"
When Liu Xiu saw this, he laughed, understood what the other party was thinking, and said no more.
At this time, he did not have any fear or sadness, but instead cheered up. The remaining source of his life was burning like a raging fire, and his whole body suddenly regained his energy.
He pulled out the long sword, and his aura merged with the long sword. The remaining aura merged with his own soul, laws, and body... all the power was integrated into one, like an unparalleled emperor's sword.
Deng Yu looked at him deeply, as if he wanted to remember Liu Xiu's figure in his soul.
He suddenly turned around and ran towards the pass.
Since Liu Xiu entrusted him with his funeral affairs, he would never let Liu Xiu down.
boom!
The army passed through the battlefield and passed the place where the sound of fighting filled the sky. Wherever it went, the soldiers of the Xia army were all separated, just like the sea separated by gods and men, revealing a passage leading directly to the city.
Wang Jing led his personal guards and quickly arrived under the wall.
The Xia army was still attacking the city just now, and a large number of siege equipment was left outside the city wall. After Wu Han Geng Yan led the Sanhe cavalry out of the city, their first goal was to break through the Xia army's main formation, but they did not destroy these things.
Just in time these siege engines came into play again.
"Yangkan, you come to command the siege!"
Wang Jing's eyes have been locked on Liu Xiu on the wall, and at the same time, the other party's eyes are also firmly locked on him.
When their eyes settled on each other, a special feeling arose in their hearts.
"Kill him, and I will be able to take another step towards gaining my karma status..."
A thought flashed in Wang Jing's mind
And passed away.
Liu Xiu also had the idea that as long as he could kill Wang Jing in formation, the Eastern Han Dynasty would be able to change his destiny...
Wang Jing directly handed over the command of the army to Yang Kan.
He drew out his long sword and rose into the air.
Uh-huh!
The same rainbow light roared out from the top of the city. Wang Jing's body and sword were almost integrated into one. The divine weapon made from the dragon's crest bone fit perfectly with the body of a real dragon. It once again condensed into a golden sword light that looked like a zigzag of a real dragon.
What Liu Xiu is holding is the Chixiao Sword, one of the three treasures of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
It is said that this sword was used by Liu Bang when he killed the White Snake... In the world of China, the owner of the Red Sky Sword was changed from Liu Bang to Liu Xiu.
Two rainbow lights came into the air and immediately collided violently.
The sword lights intersect, and countless sword shadows change, each one containing the edge that can cut through all things.
Wang Jing received the inheritance from the divine generals, turned the inherited swordsmanship and spear skills into his own, and also developed his own killer moves through innovation. Even if he fights against the top generals, he still won't fall behind.
As for Liu Xiu's strength... Although he also has good strength, he is still a scholar at heart and is not proficient in swordsmanship.
When he gave up the army and chose to confront Wang Jing, it was obvious that he wanted to fight with his life.
"I have long wanted to meet you, to catch a glimpse of Emperor Guangwu, but I didn't expect that when I met you, you would be in this situation..."
Wang Jing's strength was top-notch, and he could firmly suppress the opponent with less than a dozen moves with a long sword.
His strikes were like lightning, and the sword light enveloped Liu Xiu, threatening the opponent's vital points at all times. While taking action, Wang Jing still had the energy to speak.
The sound was caught in the sword light and passed into Liu Xiu's ears.
Liu Xiu did not speak, but once again activated the remaining life source, struggling to push his state to the peak... The price of this was to continuously burn and consume the remaining life source.
Before long, Liu Xiu will be exhausted.
Although there was some emotion in Wang Jing's tone, he would never show mercy. On the battlefield, showing mercy means being irresponsible for one's own life.
puff!
The sword pierced through the layers of void. After the two sides stood in a stalemate for a moment, one of them pierced Liu Xiu's arm and brought out a stream of blood.
On top of the city.
Yang Kan and Zhang Hao respectively led people to rush to the wall and fight with the Han generals on the wall.
Yang Kan and Wang Ba faced off, while Zhang Hao held a long spear and ran rampant. Blood rained everywhere he went, and a large number of Han army generals screamed and fell to the top of the city.
Zhang Hao was like an arrow. After piercing the strong fortress, it opened a huge gap on the city head.
The guards who followed them surged up like a tide.
kill!
After Zhang Hao cleared a clearing, he turned around and killed Wang Ba, joining forces with Yang Kan to lay siege to him.
Wang Ba is very powerful. He is one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai together with Wu Han and Geng Yan, and he is deeply trusted by Liu Xiu. But his strength and potential are slightly lacking, and he is only a land general.
Yang Kan and Zhang Hao have also reached this level after participating in all the great wars in Da Xia. In addition, the Xia army's momentum is rising rapidly, so they suppress Wang Ba.
Boom boom!
The Gang Qi collided violently, and each collision was like the roar and explosion of a huge amount of explosives. The city defense formation at Hulao Pass was somewhat unable to suppress the aftermath of the explosion of Gang Qi and vitality.
[In view of the general environment,
This is also a manifestation of the weakening of the power of the city defense formation.
kill!
Zhang Hao was as powerful as a ferocious tiger. When Wang Ba blocked Yang Kan's attack, he suddenly stabbed three times with his long spear in his hand. The first two were superimposed, smashing through Wang Ba's body-protecting divine weapon.
Then the third blow roared out, piercing Wang Ba's chest.
ah!
Wang Ba roared wildly and grabbed the long spear that pierced his chest. His eyes suddenly turned blood red, and his whole body
With his blood boiling like fire, he ignored Yang Kan's bombardment and backhanded Zhang Hao with a spear.
His counterattack was extremely fast, as if he had been prepared for it.
puff!
The spear was like lightning, and it also pierced Zhang Hao's chest.
The next moment, before Wang Ba could detonate the divine power in the spear, his head was suddenly hit by a long spear and exploded.
It was Yang Kan who took action to kill Wang Ba.
In a flash, he came to Zhang Hao and held his arm.
"General Zhang, how are you?"
Yang Kan glanced around to check Zhang Hao's injuries. Fortunately, when Wang Ba fought back hard, Zhang Hao released his weapon and managed to dodge, avoiding his heart.
"It's okay, I'm not dead yet!"
Zhang Hao coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked at Wang Ba, who had lost his head and was still standing upright. There was no anger in his eyes, but a look of respect.
Uh-huh!
Meteors fall from the sky.
Such a movement alarmed the Heaven Realm experts from both sides who were fighting together in mid-air in the distance. They were fighting so fiercely that it was difficult to separate their thoughts.
In addition, Wang Jing sent troops extremely quickly.
When Wang Ba fell and most of Hulao Pass was occupied by Xia's army, Yao Qi, Xu Chu, Dian Wei and other talents paid some attention.
After they saw the situation at Hulao Pass, their expressions suddenly changed.
Before this attack, like Deng Yu and Wu Han, they all knew the plan after the attack. If the meteorite could break the enemy's morale, they would be able to defeat their opponent in one go.
If nothing can be done, they will have to shoulder the important task of holding back Xia Jun's powerful men in the heavenly realm and create opportunities for the Han army to withdraw.
However, the speed of the fall of Hulao Pass seems to be somewhat beyond plan.
too fast.
Even the general Wang Ba was besieged and fell.
boom!
After Wang Ba fell, Yang Kan and Zhang Hao, who went into battle injured, took action again and wiped out all the Han generals who dared to resist on the city wall. Xia soldiers occupied all the east wall of Hulao Pass.
With a huge roar, the gate of the pass was opened.
