There are many mountains on the east side. Long Chen used the mountain tops as his position. Fortresses were set up on every ridge and equipped with soldiers for defense.
At that time, it was felt that it was unlikely that Wu Sheng would attack from the east, so the number of fortresses and soldiers was not large.
As the soldiers on the first line of defense opened fire, the two sides officially fought.
The soldiers were condescending, firing crossbows and divine arm bows first, followed by artillery and muskets.
The two-meter-long crossbow arrow shot at the barbarian from a high position, with Merlege rushing at the front, holding a big iron rod in his hand.
The fat body moved as fast as a hill. When the crossbow arrow came, Merleg raised the iron rod to block it. The two-meter-long crossbow arrow hit, and the huge force shook the iron rod violently.
Merleg was so strong that the iron rod was not knocked away, but the crossbow arrow was blown away, changed its trajectory, and flew to the side.
The barbarian behind him watched the crossbow arrows flying from the mountain. He raised his shield and rushed forward. Suddenly, a two-meter-long crossbow arrow flew from the side and his body was instantly penetrated.
The severe burning sensation made the barbarian let out a shrill scream, and his body began to smoke and spontaneously combust.
The arrows shot by the Divine Arm Bow and the Crossbow were so powerful and penetrating that the barbarian's shield was penetrated and the crossbow arrows got stuck on the shield.
"What a powerful crossbow arrow. A shield can't stop it."
When they attacked Yuncheng, they had seen the power of the bed crossbow and the divine arm bow.
In order to deal with this kind of crossbow arrows, they specially thickened their shields, but they still couldn't block the crossbow arrows.
Screams could be heard from time to time, and barbarians were being shot constantly.
The crossbow arrows are made of sacred wood, and the arrowheads are carved from magic stones. Once they hit the target, they will immediately ignite.
"Hurry up!"
Merlege strode upwards. There was a slope in front of him, so the charging speed was slower. In addition, there was snow at the foot of the mountain, making the charging even more difficult.
After the distance was shortened, the musket began to fire.
Crossbow arrows can be found. The bullets are small and fast, making it impossible to guard against them. The barbarians fall to the ground in large numbers.
"Spread out, spread out!"
The Merlegs look naive and very flexible. When faced with long-range firepower, the best way is to disperse.
There are not many soldiers on the top of the mountain. As long as they disperse, they can't attack.
The barbarians immediately dispersed, the battle line was lengthened, and the bows, crossbows and guns were out of range. All they could do was watch the barbarians climb up.
"What should I do? It's too far away and can't be shot."
the soldier asked anxiously.
The young generals didn't know what to do. If they rushed forward to fight, they would give up their defensive advantage.
"Report to King Wu immediately and ask for reinforcements!"
This is all the young general can do, he can't stop him and needs more reinforcements.
"Take orders!"
The soldiers immediately released the letter eagle and waited for Long Chen's reinforcements.
"Damn it, there are thousands of people here, and they all f**ked away."
The young general looked at the fleeing Jianghu people and couldn't help but curse.
These people originally wanted them to help, but when they encountered ghost soldiers, they ran faster than rabbits, which was useless.
Meng Yidao climbed up the ridge, looked back at the scattered barbarians, and said: "No, I can't leave, I have to go back, there are no generals here, I have to stay."
Feng He stopped trying to persuade him and said, "King Wu should be arriving soon. The news has been sent."
The news of Wu Sheng's attack on the east side has been sent to Yanmen Pass, and Long Chen will definitely be back soon.
Therefore, there is no problem for Meng Yidao to stay here.
"Okay, you go."
Meng Yidao stood on the top of the mountain with a giant blade in hand, watching coldly as Merleg rushed up.
The Martial Saint and the ghost girl lead the ghost army forward from behind, with Merlege in the vanguard.
"Meng Yidao, what do you want to do?"
Scholar Li who was traveling with him also stopped, and Hong Xiao and He Qingsong were not left.
"I'm going to go down and kill this barbarian!"
After saying that, Meng Yidao jumped down and flew towards Merleg.
The barbarians are too arrogant. Killing Merleg can kill the spirit of the ghost clan.
"You're crazy!"
Before reinforcements arrived, Meng Yidao committed suicide alone and entered the enemy army. This was too reckless.
"I've been to Yanmen Pass for so long and I haven't officially killed a single person yet! I'll go too!"
Scholar Li held a wooden gun in his hand, a crossbow and a knife at his waist, and flew down after Meng Yidao.
Hong Xiao and He Qingsong were a little surprised. This scholar Li was very selfish and never rushed to the front. This time he actually followed Meng Yidao down.
"Are we going or not?"
Hong Xiao looked at He Qingsong, and He Qingsong said: "We are also famous figures in the world. If we don't kill anyone when we get here, we will really be sorry for our reputation!"
Pulling out his long sword, He Qingsong flew down after him.
Hong Xiao took a deep breath and laughed: "That's right. How can people in the world not do what is right?"
Hong Xiao picked up his weapon and flew down after him.
Merleg commanded the barbarians to spread out, climb up from both sides, and charge from the front. His target was a fortress on the ridge.
He planned to rush up and break the fortress, and the first ridge was captured.
"A bunch of cowards, I still want to surrender, but it seems I don't need to."
Wu Sheng asked Merleg to serve as cannon fodder in the vanguard. Merleg planned to surrender to Long Chen at that time, but now he found that the battle was going too smoothly and there was no need to surrender.
Once the fortress is conquered and the first achievement is achieved, you can receive the reward when you return.
Just when he was thinking about something good, Meng Yidao suddenly flew from the top of the mountain, and the giant blade struck Merleg.
"not good!"
Merleg was suddenly startled, his body stood up from the ground, and he ducked to the side.
Meng Yidao aimed at Merleg and was about to cut him in half with one strike. Merleg suddenly dodged and dodged. Meng Yida spread the giant blade horizontally, turned around with the help of the wind, and chased Merleg with a slash.
Merleg's cultivation level was only that of Emperor Wu. Meng Yidao followed Long Chen and his cultivation level increased greatly, reaching the true state.
The moment the giant blade was swung, the true energy turned into a sharp blade, breaking through the wind and snow, and slashed towards Merleg.
Merleg screamed in fright. He thought there were no generals here and they were just a mob. He didn't expect Meng Yidao to be so powerful.
"Don't kill me, I surrender!"
Merleg shouted, and hit the sword with the big iron rod in his hand.
The iron rod was knocked away by the sword energy. As soon as Merleg turned around, he was cut open by the sword energy. His body was separated, and his blood and internal organs exploded.
After killing Merleg with one blow, Meng Yida turned around and killed the other barbarians.
These barbarians with low cultivation were like cutting bean sprouts with a kitchen knife under the giant blade, cutting several in a row.
When scholar Li chased after him, Merleg was already dead, and the three of them immediately separated to chase Manzi.
The Martial Saint in the north watched Merleg rushing up the mountain and the barbarians spread out to climb up, feeling a little happy in his heart.
"This barbarian looks stupid, but he also has some tricks up his sleeve. He knows how to spread out to avoid crossbows and firearms."
The ghost girl said: "Their defense is on the ridge. The two of us destroyed the fortress on the ridge and let the elite troops pass quickly. They attacked the south side first, and then the army crossed over and entered behind the Yanmen Pass formation."
After seeing the defense on the ridge, the ghost girl immediately thought of a combat strategy.
"right!"
Wu Sheng thought so too.
"Yue Ling, I order you to lead 20,000 troops, follow me quickly across the ridge, and attack behind Yanmen Pass."
The ghost girl turned around and ordered the general. Yue Ling saw that the defenders were all cowards and their firepower was not strong, so she immediately said: "The last general takes orders!"
When General Yue Lingdian wanted to rush forward, Meng Yidao suddenly went down the mountain and killed Merleg. Scholar Li and the other two followed him into the barbarian army.
"How dare you come back?"
Wu Sheng felt a little unhappy as he watched Meng Yidao kill Merleg.
"This person's cultivation is in the true realm, but he is not strong."
The ghost girl saw through Meng Yidao's cultivation level at a glance.
"I'll kill him!"
Wu Sheng jumped up and flew towards Meng Yidao.
Seeing Wu Sheng take action himself, Yue Ling shouted: "Fight with me!"
Twenty thousand ghost soldiers followed Wu Sheng and charged forward.
