The improved version of [Innate Spirit Refining Technique] made rapid progress in practice. It only took him almost a year to reach the peak of the second level. Now his soul has left the body and can reach thousands of miles away in an instant, and he has considerable abilities.
Attack and defense methods.
This year, Northern Qi and Southern Yan had several minor frictions on the border. However, the scale was not large and did not attract more attention.
But Bai Qi knew very well that this was a signal that the relative peace between Northern Qi and Southern Yan, Beiluo Mountain and Dajing Mountain was fading away, and the era of conflict between the two sides had come.
The Northern Qi Dynasty began to intensify its troops, and Bai Huanghu also sent Bai Huangying as a general to conduct the "Western Expedition" and the "Northern Expedition" successively, which relieved all worries.
Looking back, the Northern Qi cavalry appeared in the border town with Nanyan, and began a border confrontation that lasted for several years.
Tiemuguan.
Ma Rulong is now the guard of this small town.
He has left Chongyang City and arrived here near Nanyan Kingdom.
Now, Ma Rulong's realm has reached the middle of the fifth level of [Innate Breathing and Breathing Method], and his progress can be described as rapid.
The city guard of Tiemuguan, Bai Huangyang, was a distant relative of Bai Huanghu. He was good at using troops and brought back a lot of loot every time he attacked Nanyan. As a guard, Ma Rulong often accompanied the opponent deep into the enemy's territory to prevent this
The guy meets the extraordinary person from Nanyan.
"Lord Guard, Nan Yan's soldiers have come to fight against the autumn wind again."
Not only the Northern Qi cavalry would take the initiative to attack, but the Nanyan soldiers would also cross the border to harass from time to time.
Although the opponent's cavalry is not very good, the chariot battalion is still very effective and often causes considerable losses to the local area.
All these changes began after Heishuiying became king and Yuan Yang became Nanyan's national advisor. The two sides started to have friction when they competed for trade routes, and then the relationship between the two sides became worse and worse until it became
It has become a hostile state.
Due to Bai Qi's reputation, the opponent's extraordinary person did not make any more moves.
But Ma Rulong did not dare to be careless and said: "Bai Huangyang, how many people are coming from the other side? Are there any extraordinary people following?"
"The opponent has about three thousand people. With the thousand elite cavalry under my command, I will definitely be able to defeat them. As for whether the opponent has extraordinary people following them, I don't know. I also ask the guard to go out and investigate."
p>
Ma Rulong's status is much higher than that of Bai Huangyang, but they get along better, so they don't have so many polite words.
Bai Huangyang didn't think highly of Nan Yan's soldiers. He wanted to ask Ma Rulong to come forward to frighten the opponent's extraordinary beings, and then lead his troops to directly attack the three thousand troops.
In his eyes, Nan Yan's three thousand soldiers were simply vulnerable.
"Well, leave the matter of extraordinary beings to me. You should be careful and don't capsize in a small ditch."
Ma Rulong said casually and took a few little demons out of the city.
The enemy was still thirty miles away from Tiemuguan, and he quickly arrived near the enemy.
Looking up, Nan Yan's soldiers were driving chariots and approaching Teemuguan quickly. He sensed the aura of extraordinary beings in the opponent's team, and there were quite a few of them, at least a dozen.
Ma Rulong suddenly felt that something was not quite right.
"Let's go back first."
Although he doesn't know the strength of the enemy's extraordinary beings, Ma Rulong will not take risks.
He immediately rushed back with a few little demons, intending to rely on the city to fight against the opponent. After returning to Tiemuguan, he informed Bai Huangyang of the situation and sent a message for help to the guards of several nearby cities.
Message.
Almost at the same time.
Bai Qi sat in the main hall with a turtle shell in his hand and suddenly opened his eyes.
"Is the horse in trouble? But the result is confusing and there are too many variables."
He then made a divination, but the divination was very strange and seemed to indicate many possibilities.
To be honest, this was the first time Bai Qi had encountered such a situation, and he couldn't help but worry about Ma Rulong's safety.
At this moment, he noticed the vibration of the bronze mirror and offered the magic weapon. The image of the folded flower then appeared in the mirror and said: "King, Ma Rulong, the guard of Tiemuguan, has sent out a call for help. There are three thousand south
The Yan soldiers, together with a dozen extraordinary people, are preparing to knock on the gate."
"Oh? Is there anyone nearby who can help?"
Bai Qi frowned, wondering what Nan Yan wanted to do.
"There are two nearby city guards who can go to support, but their strength is not strong, and they are not as good as Ma Rulong. I plan to go there in person. On the one hand, I will support Tiemuguan, and on the other hand, I also want to know about Nan
Yan’s plan.”
Zhehua wanted to go to Tiemuguan to support Ma Rulong, so she came to ask Bai Qi for instructions. Bai Qi's majesty was growing, and she would not make him unhappy in such a serious matter.
Bai Qi thought for a while and agreed to the request to fold flowers.
Zhehua immediately ordered five hundred demon soldiers, transformed into a dragon, soared in the clouds and mist, and headed straight for Tiemuguan.
The battle formation [Jiaolong Chuhai] has been carried forward in Zhehua's hands. In terms of the degree of flexible use, she has even surpassed Youying. This guy's fighting talent is terrible. Bai Qi aside, she is Bei Qi.
Luoshan is the best.
Bai Qi still felt uneasy, so he simply stood up, took a step forward, and headed towards Tiemuguan.
He quickly arrived at his destination, but instead of entering the city, he found a nearby hilltop to hide himself.
Later.
Nan Yan's three thousand soldiers arrived outside the city of Tiemuguan.
The enemy's chariots came forward and formed a row. The gleaming bronze crossbows on the vehicles were ready to go, exuding an ominous aura.
"Huh?"
Bai Qi had already activated [Delirium], so when Nan Yan's chariot showed its fangs, he noticed something strange.
How should I put it? Chariots and bronze crossbows are definitely not magic weapons. There is no doubt about this.
But both of them have some characteristics of magical weapons. For example, the crossbow arrows have unique fluctuations of the magic, so the power after being shot must be many times more powerful than ordinary crossbow arrows.
"This should be an alternative application of runes. A transcendent person carved runes on the bronze crossbow, so it has some characteristics of a magical weapon. But the personnel who control the bronze crossbow are ordinary soldiers. How should we count this?
?"
Bai Qi understood immediately. It seemed that Yuan Yang was not a national master for nothing, and he actually thought of this method.
If the other party succeeds, it will change the way ordinary people fight, and even ordinary people will pose a certain degree of threat to extraordinary beings.
Yuan Yang is really a genius.
"Fire the arrow!"
Following the command from the leading general, the bronze crossbow on the chariot lit up with a dazzling light.
Immediately, the gleaming crossbow arrows whizzed out and headed straight for the city of Tiemuguan. The soldiers guarding the city raised their shields and tried their best to hide their bodies. After escaping this row of arrows, it was Beiqi's turn.
The soldiers fought back.
Then, the power of Nan Yan's crossbow greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
The crossbow arrows not only tore apart shields and obstacles with ease, but even hit the city wall. Stones flew randomly and gaps appeared in many places. If this continues, rounds of arrow rain will sooner or later destroy the city wall.
Defeated.
This is extraordinary power.
"Lord Guard, the enemy does not obey the rules and actually allows extraordinary people to cooperate in attacking the city."
Bai Huangyang was almost shot through by a crossbow arrow. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been dead like the soldiers around him.
He got up, hunched over and ran to Ma Rulong, and said angrily.
