Chapter 217 Scene 28: The Red Armor Starts a Prairie Fire Eleven
"You think you can just walk away like this?"
Kun Jie was wearing a dark purple coat, and his face looked thinner than ever. He blocked the path of Feng Weishu and Ning Yue, looking at the two of them up and down with sharp eyes like knives:
"Sure enough, he is the one who watched you grow up. Even though he is not your biological father, you still choose to side with him now!"
Hearing what the other party said, Ning Yue shook her head vigorously, her eyes firm:
"You are wrong! I chose to help him, not because of the kindness of raising him for more than ten years, but because you are wrong! Now I know what kind of impact it will bring to this world if you successfully find the Holy City. Suffering. And I have the same goal as him right now, which is to use all means to stop you!"
"Use all means? Then it is better to let me see what means you can use today, here and now!"
The girl's words provoked Kun Jie to scold him on the spot, "Do you think I don't know about the fact that you were secretly imprisoned by Gao Li in the Sinian Palace? You were escorted to Yujing by the guard Zhu Rong from Suoyang Pass. Since the first day, I have been observing in secret and keeping track of all the trends. Every word you two have spoken and everything you have done in this palace cannot escape my eyes!"
"Don't scare me! Gao Li has set up a powerful barrier in Yongyang Palace. If you don't try to break it, it will be difficult for anyone to cast a spell!"
The red-haired girl couldn't help but be surprised.
"Others can't do it, but it doesn't mean that I can't. You two, like Gao Li, think that the barrier is enough to prevent me from controlling the trends in the palace, but you don't know that in fact, as early as when Feng Feng Wei Shu entered the palace On that day, I destroyed all the formations set up by Gao Li, and then replaced them with my own formations!"
Kun Jie suddenly raised his hand and touched Feng Weishu's face with his fingertips, "Didn't the chief priest always refuse to let me know where the entrance to the Holy City is? Do you really think that, Since Cangliu City has been destroyed, other than asking you for this unique secret, do I have no other way?"
"This is absolutely impossible! As for the location of the Holy City, apart from the records in the books in the Dharma Hall, only the chief priests of the past are qualified to know! So what do you think -"
"You and Suiya have been at the bottom of Chanying for too long. You have no idea what kind of great changes have happened in this world! You also have no idea that before the people on land established this dynasty that lasted for thousands of years, there were already records of the Holy City. Ancient maps of directions are spread throughout the world!"
As the tall and thin man spoke, he actually took out a wrinkled ancient sheepskin picture from his arms. As soon as Ning Yuefu saw it, he couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Isn't this the little stuttering picture? How did it fall into your hands?!"
Kun Jie chuckled, the expression on his face seemed to be mocking, but also seemed to be showing off:
"Why can't it fall into my hands? From whom do you think Ye Fufeng learned the exact location of this picture in Yongyang Palace and sent someone to steal it? Why do you think Qi and Yin of Ye State easily believed what he told a mere general in Baili and spent countless manpower and financial resources for more than 20 years, vowing to find this map? And why did Qi Shouyu rack his brains so much? The land usurped the throne and seized power, so why was it attacked by the whole country before it was firmly established?"
"You are behind all of this?!"
Ning Yue finally realized that Qi Shouyu's picture had been manipulated by the other party. Thousands of questions she had kept in her heart for many years were finally solved at this moment, but the truth behind it made her even more angry. "So many people died, all just to give you a chance to get this picture?!"
"Could it be that you hate me because of this? If your grandfather Shou Ya finally chose me to be the high priest, or if the high priest next to you did not label me as a traitor and tried his best to design and kill me. , I may have already found the location of the Holy City today, so how could so many things happen?"
But Kun Jie spoke plausibly, as if he was the most aggrieved and innocent person in the world. "After I left Cangliu City and fled to the mainland, I have been plotting in secret in order to one day no longer be controlled by anyone." Man, if you want to be held accountable, it should be Feng Weishu and Suiya who killed those people. If you want to hate them, you should hate them!"
Listening to the other party's seemingly righteous sophistry, Ning Yue snorted heavily: "Killing is killing. No matter what you say, you can't get rid of the smell of blood on your hands and body!"
Kun Jie stared at the girl in front of him, as if he was looking at a strange person. After a moment, he suddenly seemed to have heard something extremely funny, and laughed loudly:
"Could it be that you still think that those people don't deserve to die? In this world, no one can escape the four words of fame, fortune, power, and power. All I have to do is tell them that such a picture exists, and follow it If I find clues, I will be able to gain the power to command the world, and countless ambitious people will be like crucian carp crossing the river, diving into the trap I set without even thinking, and they will never be able to get out again!"
"Do you think that everyone else is just like you, and can only see all the ugliness in the world, but not the more goodness and beauty? As everyone knows, there are many people in the world who are different from you! Even with all your conspiracies now You have succeeded. Even if you can indeed find the Holy City, there is fairness and justice in the world! There will always be people who will step forward to stop your evil deeds!"
Ning Yue spoke with indignation, and her blue eyes seemed to stir up a storm. However, Kun Jie, who also raised his voice, suddenly regained his composure, and just narrowed his eyes slightly to look at the two people in front of him:
"Even if what you say is right, so what? Anyone who stops me will not survive! Now, I will use you, little girl, as my first sacrifice before I leave for the Holy City!"
After the tall and thin man finished speaking, he started to mutter something. As the spell was cast, the red-haired girl felt as if her limbs were tightly bound by countless invisible ropes, and her body was also filled with strength. Under the tug, it slowly rose into the air.
"Don't touch my daughter. If you have anything, come at me!"
Feng Weishu, who had never spoken, suddenly shouted, held his breath and concentrated, and cast a spell to break it. However, he had been imprisoned in the dungeon for too long, and his body was already extremely weak. Even though he had broken the barrier set in the palace, he was still Unable to fight with it.
The tall and thin man just raised his wrist slightly and pushed his chest from the air. The high priest, who was once admired by thousands of people in the clan and was regarded as the head of the Dharma Hall, was knocked out on the spot, hit hard and overturned. on the carriage.
The smashed carriage was scattered in all directions, raising dust. Ning Yue screamed in the air, and for a while it was difficult to find her father.
Kun Jie's scalp-numbing laughter echoed again on Panlongyuan. However, the laughter stopped abruptly along with a roar from an unknown object, followed closely by a sound from the sky. Several bright purple thunderbolts fell simultaneously!
Lightning struck the green brick ground where Ning Yue and Feng Weishu had just stood. However, something seemed to suck up all the powerful thunderbolts. After the loud noise, a mass of something as white as snow was seen. In a dazzling golden light, it expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a cloud rising from the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the cloud suddenly moved, opened its huge mouth, and bit Kun Jie straight away! This bite was so sudden that even the wily man seemed not to have expected it, and he was in panic. But he didn't have time to cast a spell to save himself, so he had to duck and avoid it in a hurry.
Just hearing a "chi-la" sound, the clothes on his body were torn into two pieces. Ning Yue, who was trapped in the air with a spell, also felt that the power that restrained her body suddenly disappeared, and immediately she felt heavy fell back to the ground.
"Didn't you just say that anyone who blocks you will not survive? Now, this girl insists on blocking you! Xue Ling, bite me!"
The girl's red hair once again stood up on her head like rising flames, spreading out and flying in the wind. The white spirit fox next to her that was once only the size of a palm was now as strong as a fierce beast. The lion, "Hehe" roared low and stood in front of its master, spreading its claws and pounced towards Kunjie again!
Just as thunder and lightning bursts and loud noises were heard in the city, and the joyful Zen ceremony gradually turned into a purgatory-like massacre, outside the two city gates of Chiwu and Baiyin, one in the south and the other in the west, the Wei and Liang army had also formed their formations and prepared. Launch the final attack.
Looking from a distance in the early morning, the firebolts and blunderbuss sticking out from the parapet on the top of the city, as well as the braziers used to light the fire every five steps, seemed to be provoking Lu Qiu Bo Rong in front of the formation - Yujing City The defense was strong, and the female kingdom leader had previously experienced the tremendous power of the firebolt gun at Suoyang Pass. But even so, she and Fu Zaiyin still came up with a countermeasure overnight.
At present, the two men have already ordered the soldiers to put the giant shields in their hands into groups of five and tie them together with rattan and hemp rope to increase the thickness. They also tied the giant shields in rows to the rams and wells used in the siege. and on the flying bridge. In this way, the sergeants in Queyue Formation no longer have to fear the flying rocks and iron bullets fired from the city. They only need to move step by step and advance steadily.
Coupled with the chaos in the city, God actually gave Lu Qiu Bo Rong a rare opportunity. After the ceremony began, visions and rumors were frequent in the city. The siege had just started for an hour, and the people who originally fought hard were Among the defenders, nearly half lost the courage to continue resisting in the blink of an eye.
The war drums were thundering, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. The military guards who were still gritting their teeth and defending at the top of Yujing City exhausted all their tricks, but they could only slightly delay the speed of the Wei Liang army's attack on the city. In a short period of time, they could no longer kill anyone hiding behind the giant shield. The soldiers below.
Although the soldiers who were holding on to the city had burned nearly half of the siege equipment with kerosene, the oil reserves at the top of the city would eventually be exhausted. However, the tall equipment that was still standing under the city wall after being burned was swarmed by the crowd. The arriving Wei Liang army provided more cover.
"Report! Good news from the front, Baiyin Gate has been breached!"
A soldier carrying the order rushed into the tent, but he could not hide the excitement and joy on his face. He knelt down in front of Lu Qiu Bo Rong and reported.
However, before the female leader could ask more questions, she saw another soldier running towards him. It turned out that the news of success came from the Chiwu Sect:
"Report! The Chiwu Gate suddenly opened, and the people in the city swarmed out, including many armed guards who abandoned the battle and threw their weapons. They were probably frightened by the thunderous vision before, and they couldn't stop them!"
"How many troops are still in the city now?"
"Less than thirty thousand!"
"Okay! Immediately mobilize the remaining troops to support, and order the commander-in-chief of the west and south armies to attack with all their strength. Before sunset today, I will personally board the Yongyang Palace and enter the Wannian Palace!"
Luqiu Borong finally breathed a sigh of relief - because she knew that once the first city wall was breached, the subsequent ones would become easier and easier. The goal that generations of Luqiu family leaders had longed for was to take over Yujing.
In the blink of an eye, it seems to be close at hand and within easy reach.
However, the good times did not last long. Before the order was sent out of the tent, the third soldier was heard shouting and rushing in. What he brought was the bad news of encountering an enemy behind the formation.
"Which prince is this coming from? This time our army is rushing out for an expedition. No matter how fast the news spreads, who can rush to help so quickly? Which king in the world is left with such courage?!"
The brows that the female monarch had just relaxed knitted together again.
"No, I don't know. There seem to be a few black armor soldiers from the Ye Kingdom in the enemy formation, but most of them are heavy armored cavalry wearing red armor and riding Shuobei horses!"
"Whose flag is the opponent raising?" Luqiu Borong asked again.
"I don't know. There is only one side of the enemy formation. There is no writing on it, but a ball of red flames is painted on it..." Pu Bing replied hesitantly, unable to hide the panic on his face.
"How many people are there in the enemy army?"
"About, about ten thousand."
"There are only over 10,000 people, how can you be so scared?" The expression on the female monarch's face relaxed again, and she ordered, "Order the remaining sergeants not to reinforce the city gate, but to divert their efforts to eliminate future troubles.
——”
However, before she could finish speaking, Fu Zaiyin walked up to her and whispered in her ear:
"My lord, what we should do now is not to eliminate future troubles, but to order the withdrawal of troops."
"Withdraw troops? Why!" Luqiu Borong was a little confused and turned to glare at the other party and asked.
However, the general with a short beard walked to the front of the tent and reached out to lift a corner of the curtain:
"Although the opponent has only ten thousand people now, we don't know if reinforcements will arrive. In addition, the tens of thousands of defenders in Yujing City can still fight. If there is an internal and external attack and all our army's supplies are cut off, our army will definitely be defeated!"
"Then we'll take down Yujing in one go—"
"Even if Yujing is captured, the city gate has been broken, and it is impossible to hold on with only tens of thousands of troops. Our army has lost the first move, and we still don't know whether the thousands of soldiers who stayed at Suoyang Pass have also encountered the enemy. The enemy is coming from the south.
The ferry attack is coming, and if the entire territory of Weiliang has been attacked now, if the battle continues, I am afraid that the Luqiu family will never set foot in Changzhou again!"
Fu Zaiyin immediately interrupted the female leader before she could tell. Hearing what the general said was quite reasonable, Lu Qiu Borong was extremely unwilling, but also a little scared. He had no choice but to nod in agreement and then retreated to Fangsuoyang Pass.
Another picture will make a comeback someday.
