The military road leading to the royal castle is different from the ramps between terraces at each level. There are long stone steps and stone railings on both sides of the ramp, making the ramp feel much more spacious and impressive.
Long Ying and others were the last ones to return to the King's Castle. When they reached the top of the stairs, the attack range of the enemy's rockets had been extended to the warehouses on the fourth floor. More than ten warehouses close to the third floor platform were already on fire.
The war is approaching.
Long Ying said without looking back: "Did anyone hear the sound of the trebuchet?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Wan Renyu said: "It must be reserved for the purpose of attacking the fort. The roof of the royal fortress is made of iron tiles, and the walls are made of mud and stone. Rockets have no use for them. Only stone bullets can pose a threat."
Ye Qiye said: "I can promise not to fire ten bullets. The two trebuchets are about to be scrapped. Only the iron arrows shot by the crossbow machine are enough to destroy our fort gate."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but cast their eyes on the two doors, which were made of solid wood and covered with iron sheets.
The castle gate opened, and Dragon Eagle led the way to the square between the gate and the royal palace. Thunderous snoring came from the three-story royal palace, shaking the space in the square. He smiled and said, "I heard that the brothers were sleeping soundly.
I feel relieved."
Xiao Fuzi came up to him and said excitedly: "The battle is won! The battle is won!"
The gates were closed behind them and iron bars were added.
Wan Renyu laughed hoarsely and said: "Don't shout and disturb people's dreams. How can we win the battle before it is fought?"
Xiao Fuzi said: "Everyone said they would win this battle! Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. Let Xiao Fuzi lead you to take a good bath and have a good rest. No reward will be charged tonight."
Long Ying's heart moved and he said: "Xiao Fuzi, please ask me to see if any of your tribe members have returned from Dianchi Lake. Pay special attention to a beauty named Ji Qian. If there is any news, report it immediately."
Xiao Fuzi accepted the order and went happily.
Longying said to himself: "Can we really win the battle?"
Feng Guoting said: "If the current situation develops, it is impossible for us to lose."
Minan Tianan was surprised and asked, "Does Mr. Ying have an ominous premonition?"
Everyone walked across the square and followed the stone-paved road deep into the royal castle.
Long Ying said: "I don't know, but I feel a little uncomfortable. It seems I missed something."
Ye Qiye said: "This is called worrying about gains and losses. Everything will be clear tomorrow. When the soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when the water comes, the soil will cover them. When the time comes, we can adapt to changes."
Piroge and several of his men came up to him in high spirits. The former said happily: "The castle is really big and can accommodate twice as many people. Let us enjoy it tonight. Tomorrow will determine the future of Erdian District."
one day."
Long Ying soaked in the bathing pool, which was about ten feet square, and felt so comfortable that he forgot about the enemies outside the fort. This pool was originally a hot spring pool dedicated to King Erhai Tong Mubai. As the commander of the city's defenders, Long Ying lived in the most gorgeous palace of course.
Long Ying had no choice but to refuse, so he was disrespectful and had no choice but to accept the offer.
No matter whether they are outside the Great Wall or the tribes in the southern border, the customs are open. The four girls Ding Na belong to the Naked Tribe and originally lived in the mountains and forests. They only became tainted with the customs and education of the Dianbai Tribe because they lived in Fengcheng to avoid disasters in recent years, but their blood is flowing through them.
He is still the original wild nature of the naked tribe. When he meets the man he likes, he is so bold that even a man can't stand it. Now that he has a "relationship" with Long Ying, he becomes even more wild, making Long Ying enjoy all the happiness.
Under the careful care of the four women, Long Ying revisited his old dream of the distant god's capital, but the doubts in his heart still lingered.
Where exactly did the mistake go wrong?
Ding Na fell into his arms and said charmingly: "Why is Master Ying frowning?"
Long Ying reached out and stroked her elastic back, and said in surprise: "You live in the mountains, how come your skin can remain so tender and smooth?"
Ding Li held his arm and said: "We know how to extract liquids from different flowers, plants and fruits, mix them into juice, and apply it all over the body every morning and night. We are not afraid of mosquito bites, and can also keep the skin smooth."
Long Ying said: "If you can get this secret recipe, take back the Chinese soil and make it into a medicinal liquid and sell it, you can definitely make a lot of money. Ha!"
Ding Ling gathered around and said coquettishly: "Master Ying, why don't you go back to China? Here, we four sisters will serve you. As long as you are happy, we can bear children for you. Even if you accept other women, we will not
It’s our custom to be jealous!”
Long Ying said: "You should know that this is impossible. I belong to the Middle Earth, just like you belong to the Erhai Lake. I am just a passer-by here. When the journey is over, I will go home."
Ding Na said: "We women of the naked tribe are used to thinking about tomorrow's things. Ying Ye was so powerful last night. He seemed to have inexhaustible strength. He refused to let go even if he begged for mercy."
Ding Li whispered: "We still want it!"
Long Yingju said in shock: "I thought of it. Inexhaustible, ha! Inexhaustible. Although it is impossible to use inexhaustible poison cannons, there should be a few left, or there may be a lot of remaining materials.
Get a dozen of them out. That’s why Zong Mi Zhi cherishes the use of trebuchets so much. Haha!”
Ding Hui said: "What is Master Ying talking about?"
Long Ying became relaxed and said in a comfortable manner: "You guys go back to your room and wait for me. After I have arranged everything, I will come back to hang out with you and leave beautiful memories in your life."
King's castle. Back garden. Pavilion.
After listening to Bi Longying's analysis, everyone celebrated with their hands on their foreheads. Except for Ze Gang, everyone else had witnessed the power of the poison cannon. Especially in the semi-enclosed environment of the King's Castle, the power would increase exponentially.
Wan Renyu said: "We were dazzled by the victory and relied on brother Arisawa Tsuyoshi's extraordinary troops, so our thinking was not as thorough as before."
Ye Qiye Dao: "The enemy still has remaining poisonous artillery, and there are traces of it. The two trebuchets have long been dilapidated. They threw more than ten or twenty stone bombs, which did not pose a threat to us. But if they were thrown
It's a different matter if it's a poisonous artillery piece,"
With the explosion of the poisonous artillery, in addition to sending out a large amount of fire debris and smoke, it will also splash poisonous needles and poisonous caltrops, which will fall on the densely populated areas of our own troops, and the lethality is amazing.
Feng Guoting pondered: "When will the enemy launch an attack?"
Wan Renyu scolded: "Look at the Dragon God Witch, with his beaming face, you should know that everything is under his control."
Long Ying smiled and said: "Master Wan scolded the wrong person this time. I just want to listen to your opinions first, and after brainstorming, I will elaborate on my own ideas and then express them for your reference."
Minantian smiled and said: "The enemy will attack at a moment when we don't expect it. Ha! I learned this way of thinking from Lord Ying."
Everyone smiled.
Ze Gang nodded and said: "Although Brother Mi did not point out the moment of the enemy's attack, it is of great reference value. As long as we go to the wall now and see if the trebuchet has entered the attack position, we will know when the enemy will launch."
Long Ying Xiang Feng crossed the court and said, "Our brother Ting, what do you think?"
Ze Gang was surprised and said: "Why do you call Brother Feng to be Brother Ting?"
Piroge smiled and said: "It's indeed a long story. I'll tell you after I win the battle. Brother Ting, please!"
Feng Guoting said: "Master Ying indeed asked the right person. Just now when you were enjoying your time in the inner garden, I went to the tower to observe the enemy's situation. It was because you said that I felt a little uncomfortable, so I didn't dare to take it lightly. "
Everyone looked attentive, knowing that he was making an accurate assessment based on what he had observed.
Feng Guoting said: "A lot of what I saw at that time puzzled me. For example, they brought a lot of water up, but instead of using it to put out the fire, they let the warehouse burn to the top. Although the thick smoke spread upwards, The wind swept to the southeast, but it did not cause any inconvenience to their plan for tomorrow's attack. And although we have become a turtle in a urn, if we allow a large number of soldiers to stay here until the night, the cold wind will blow all night, and tomorrow there will be another It was very stupid to wait until the afternoon to launch the attack. But when Lord Ying guessed that they still had poisonous artillery, all the unexplainable things were solved. If I guessed correctly, they would launch at midnight, first Leading the attack with a six-bow crossbow machine, they shot the fort gate into pieces, and then attacked the gate with hammering wood. If we still thought that they would wait until dawn to attack the royal castle at the moment of their attack, what kind of dilemma would we be in? Woolen cloth?"
Ze Gang clapped his legs and said, "Zong Mi Zhi is indeed cunning. Fortunately, the Dragon God Witch is more cunning than him."
The two words he blurted out made Zhenting laugh.
Long Ying smiled bitterly and said: "Alas! I can't bear the word cunning. But attack the door first and then poison the artillery. It's really a shame that I can think of it."
Everyone was secretly sweating.
You can imagine the situation at that time.
Twelve heavy iron arrows from two crossbow machines were fired continuously, hitting the gate wall and making a terrible impact. The defenders were awakened from their sleep, and for a moment they were at a loss as to what had happened. They hurried to the city gate, and there they were. At this time, poisonous artillery fell from the sky and fell into the crowd.
Ze Gang said: "There is still half an hour before midnight. Time is urgent. Please ask the Dragon God Witch..."
Long Ying stood up, cut off his words with his movements, and said: "Sit here and talk on paper, stand on the wall and observe on the spot, and we'll talk about it when we get there."
Most of the warehouses on the lower floor were burned by the fire and collapsed and turned into charcoal, leaving only ruins and tiles, with occasional flames and smoke, blocking the view, making it difficult to see clearly, under the never-ending northwest wind. , the fire smoke spread forward, covering up the night sky, and the noise of moving troops and equipment came from the third floor platform.
If the opponent is not using poisonous artillery, under the current circumstances, launching an attack on the King's Castle will be a recipe for death.
Long Ying said: "This attack will be presided over by Zong Mizhi on the spot. He will also personally take action to boost morale."
Wan Renyu said: "The enemy must send trebuchets and crossbows to the lower platform before they can launch a night attack, so we still have time to prepare."
Long Ying said calmly: "The enemy has formed their formation on the third level of the platform. As long as the order is given, they can advance along the ramp. As long as they place the crossbows on both sides below and adjust the upward shooting angle, they can launch towards the city gate. It is simple and fast, catching us by surprise. The trebuchet has a longer range and can be launched at the edge of the stage outside the smoke, or it can be thrown in by hand as Zong Mi Zhi learned from me, so the landing point will be more precise."
Feng Guoting asked: "How many people are there on the other side?"
Long Ying said: "There are about 15,000 people. This group of people is all the strength that Zong Mizhi can throw into the attack on the city at the moment. The rest are wounded and tired soldiers. The enemy's strategy is to fight quickly and rely on conspiracy and deceit.
and superior troops, and captured the royal castle in one go. Therefore, as long as we can block the enemy's first attack after breaking through, not only will the enemy's vigor be greatly reduced, but they will also be seriously affected by the shadow of repeated setbacks in the past, giving rise to fear and loss.
Fighting spirit. At that time, as long as we deploy our troops and attack forcefully, the enemy will collapse without a fight."
Piroge nodded and said: "I originally thought that there were only a hundred people in the royal castle, but suddenly thousands of powerful troops came out. This alone was enough to scare the opponent and give rise to the fear of being defeated again.
."
"Brother Wang is wrong!"
Everyone looked away and saw Princess Yueling's graceful figure climbing up the castle wall. Since there were no lights inside or outside the royal castle, she looked like a strange spirit that had broken into the world from the dark night, as real as an illusion.
Especially Pi Luo Ge, Minan Tian and Ye Qi Ye, when they first found out that she was the reincarnation of the Great Ghost Lord Dan Ran, the feeling in their hearts was truly indescribable.
Yue Ling came to the middle of Long Ying and Feng Guoting, and cast her beautiful jewel-like eyes outside the castle wall.
Long Ying had a strange feeling that history was repeating itself. Before defeating the enemy with a flood, the two sides still had no chance to confront each other. She also suddenly appeared on the wall, bringing him important information about the enemy that was related to the future outcome as if he was still enlightened. From then on
From the moment to the present, it seems that no time has passed, and the war has never started. Of course, this is just an illusion caused by the moon spirit. In fact, the Wind City no longer exists, and only a corner of the King's Castle remains.
Yue Ling no longer looks like the princess of Meng Shezhao, but more like the beautiful ghost who returns to the human world with her crescent moon.
Yue Ling spat out her fragrant lips and said, "The moon is round again!"
Everyone raised their heads to look at the sky, where the bright moon appeared and disappeared outside the increasingly thinning smoke.
The wall was shrouded in an indescribable and strange atmosphere. No one spoke, and they listened quietly to the moon spirit's heavenly voice that seemed to come from a distant place.
Yue Ling's ethereal and wandering voice sounded in everyone's eardrums: "You have underestimated the sect's secret wisdom. The evil spirit in him had long sensed the arrival of reinforcements, so he had to take advantage of the situation before our position was stable.
On this occasion, he urged the army to attack forcefully, and he was taking the greatest risk and making a desperate move."
"For Zong Mizhi, the real battlefield for victory is outside the royal castle rather than inside the royal castle. He knows that your martial arts skills are superb. Even if you are affected by the poisonous artillery, you are still capable of breaking out of the siege and escaping from the royal castle. So.
The final battlefield is the third level platform, where Zong Mi Zhi has set up enough power to kill us all. And as long as he can behead the Dragon God Witch, then what he lost in this siege will be
Not only can you win back things in one go, but you will also become a world-famous figure."
Minantian was surprised and said: "How could the princess know about the poisonous cannon? We haven't had the chance to tell the princess yet."
Yue Ling said: "You were talking at the pavilion in the back garden earlier, and I was listening."
Turning to Long Ying, he said: "This is the ability of the Great Ghost Lord to unite with Wanhua Ming. Once Zong Mi Zhihua takes over the small gift given to him by the Commander-in-Chief, he will seem to have disappeared from the world."
After Long Ying explained a few words, he said: "As Princess Yueling reminded me, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. What we thought before is no longer feasible. Please ask Brother Ting to plan a strategy for us. Ha! This commander is really easy to be."
Yue Ling showed her daughter's coquettishness again, and said angrily: "Why don't you ask others, but why do you want to ask Brother Ting?"
At this moment, Yue Ling not only has no trace of her eyebrows, but also unlike her usual self, she just looks like a little girl who knows how to act coquettishly, very innocent and cute.
Her changes are endless, and they are different from the colorfulness of the little witch, but they are equally exciting and fascinating.
After giving Minantian a reminder, except for Ze Gang, they paid special attention to her calling "Brother Ting", and they really felt that she was filled with joy from deep in her heart.
Long Ying said casually: "Is there any difference?"
Wan Renyu and others smiled knowingly and had to admire Long Ying's calmness, chatting and laughing while using troops. But they were all extremely nervous, because the enemy could attack at any moment.
Feng Guoting said with a smile: "Let me tell you for the princess, as long as we can secure the castle, this battle will be ours. Our goal is not to defeat the enemy, but to create a miracle without losing a single soldier.
."
Piroge laughed and said: "As expected of Brother Ting, first there was a plan to defeat the enemy with a flood, and now there is a plan to become invincible. The entire battle plan is ready to be revealed, how about we put it into action immediately?"
Ze Gang said happily: "The prince is impatient, so I will also express my feelings. Alas! I am extremely nervous."
Long Ying took the lead and walked towards the stone steps of the lower wall, saying: "Young Master is a nameless but real coach. You don't have to be responsible for heavy work. You can stay here and talk to the princess!"
Feng Guoting responded: "This is an offer I can't refuse, remember! I don't ask for merit, but I ask for no faults."
Everyone agreed with a roar, and the atmosphere was warm.
Feng Guoting looked towards Yue Ling. She was still looking at the enemy formation outside the castle with her beautiful eyes, unmoved by Long Ying's teasing. Suddenly, he could no longer tell what the ghost-like mysterious beauty in front of him was.
Is it Princess Yueling or the Great Ghost Lord Danran.
