A moment later, Qiu Yu and Xing Ling flew to the city tower, and dense arrows shot out like raindrops, but they were knocked away by the two men's wave of spiritual energy with ease.
Looking far away, I saw a large force of Feiyun Army rushing over from outside the city. They were about to arrive at the bottom of the city tower. The shouts of killing were loud, "Come on, let's attack the city in one go."
"Kill..."
The officers and soldiers on the city tower quickly fired arrows in an attempt to stop the thousands of Feiyun Army from coming over. The sound of piercing the air was heard endlessly, "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." The officers and soldiers of the Feiyun Army below were holding shields to resist. Even so,
Some people were hit by arrows and fell down.
Success or failure depended on this. Qiu Yu looked intently and saw many officers and soldiers gathered at the city gate. He roared angrily, "Get out of here..." The sword swung out, the golden edge surged, and transformed into a giant crocodile.
He pounced condescendingly, his body was several feet long, and his whole body was covered with scales. He pounced with his teeth and claws bared, so ferocious that the officers and soldiers were so frightened that they turned pale and hurriedly spread out to both sides, revealing the city gate behind them, and they didn't care about it anymore.
As the giant golden crocodile walked past, dozens of people were swept away until they screamed, and then there was a loud bang. The heavy city gate was violently knocked open, and the Feiyun Army cavalry outside happened to rush over.
, immediately swarmed in and slaughtered the officers and soldiers with swords and spears...
The result was obvious. In just over an hour, at dawn, the Feiyun Army completely broke through the city and captured tens of thousands of enemy officers and soldiers. Zhongzhou City fell, making Qiu Yu's sphere of influence expand again. His soldiers cheered excitedly.
, the flag of the Feiyun Army and the banner with the character "Autumn" were replaced on the tower.
At noon, Zhao's famous general Xiao Qianyou led an army of 100,000 to assist the officers and soldiers defending the city in Zhongzhou. However, when they arrived, they found that the Feiyun Army flag was hung on the city tower, and the city was actually captured. In other words, Lu Shixuan led the army.
The officers and soldiers did not persist even for a day, and now Zhongzhou has become Qiu Yu's territory.
A hundred thousand troops came to the city, with banners fluttering and armor bright. The giant rhinoceros in the army was particularly eye-catching. It was covered with green scales and had a three-foot-long sharp horn pointing into the air like a scimitar. Its two eyes were purple.
Red, flashing with fierce light.
This beast is called Qinglin Sky-horned Rhinoceros, a third-level top-notch magical beast, extremely ferocious. The person who can tame it into a mount is naturally not an ordinary person. It is the famous Xiao Qianyou of the Zhao State Military. The veteran general has fought countless battles in the north and south.
Victory, a figure of the God of War level, now became Zhao Hanting's life-saving straw, asking him to lead his elite troops to support Jinghou of Zhongzhou and defeat the rebels in order to reverse the situation.
The old man is over a hundred years old, wearing a green armor. He is very tall and majestic. His old face has a dark green color, and his eyes are gleaming. He looks at the people on the tower with sharp eyes. He can't help but frown. Since
Zhongzhou has been conquered, so the election of Jinghou Lu Shi is not in danger. This guy named Qiu is really powerful. The army he leads is overwhelming, and it is really amazing to break the city at such a speed.
His eyes passed over and examined the people on the tower, and finally stopped on the young man wearing gray robes under the banner of Shuai Zi. Although this man was not old and was not wearing armor, he stood there like stars over the moon, looking extraordinary.
, maybe he is the legendary King Ling.
Realizing that the old guy was looking over, Qiu Yu had already heard about Xiao Qianyou's reputation and figured out that the old man riding the Qinglin Cerebral Rhinoceros should be the other person, so he said loudly: "Is this Old General Xiao down there?
Sorry, you are late. Zhongzhou City is already my king’s territory. You have worked hard to come all the way, but there is nothing you can do to save it. After all, these defenders are too useless and could not wait for you to come."
As expected, this boy is Prince Ling, who has become famous recently. He is young and frivolous, but he has no restraint in provocation in front of him. It is simply unreasonable. Anger appeared on Xiao Qianyou's face and he said in a deep voice: "Qiu Yu, please don't be so arrogant.
I thought that if you occupied Zhongzhou, you would be able to cause trouble. I, the general, will definitely retake the city and live up to the trust of King Zhao..."
Well, Qiu Yu is completely modern in thinking and understands the vital role of intelligence in war. Therefore, there are many spies he arranged in the Zhao Kingdom, including in Kyoto. Naturally, he conveyed a lot of news back, including the fact that the third prince, Zhao Hanting, killed the king and seized the throne.
There was a major rumor. Now that he heard what the old general said, he sneered and said, "What the old general said is wrong. Who is the King of Zhao that you are loyal to now? He is just a beast who killed the king and then killed the prince. Thanks to you, he is still
One of the most valued generals of the late king, indiscriminately and without mentioning revenge for the late king, actually surrendered to the rebellious ministers and traitors, which is simply contemptible..."
Rumors about the regicide of the third prince Zhao Hanting have been spreading in the court and the army. After all, what ability and courage does a eunuch Sun have to dare to kill his master? Isn’t it a joke? He is clearly an unlucky scapegoat. Otherwise, the queen and the prince
How could he die an unexpected death? Anyone with eyesight would not know. This was all the fault of the Third Prince. In order to ascend to the throne, he did not hesitate to kill someone without caring about brotherhood.
Xiao Qianyou couldn't help but blush, and said sternly: "Don't talk nonsense, you kid is misleading the public, and you deserve to die..." However, there was obviously a lack of confidence in his words, and he was also well aware of the evil deeds of the third prince.
Ming, but all the civil and military officials in the imperial court chose to be loyal to the other side, so what can I do? I can only follow the crowd, and would rather be deceived by lies.
Qiu Yu sneered, "I'm afraid you are aware of the fact that King Zhao is now regicide and usurping the throne. As a senior figure, you turned a blind eye and instead worked for him. It's really sad... and the people under your command.
The soldiers are equally sad. It is not worth it to come and die for the murderer of the king..."
There is inevitably some restlessness among the 100,000-strong army. Everyone knows how powerful the Feiyun Army is. Almost all the officers and soldiers who fought with it did not win, and all suffered numerous casualties. Naturally, they are not willing to bite this hard nut. After all, no one wants to die.
!
So what the thief leader said was just the rumor they heard. If it was true, it would really be meaningless for them to lose their lives in Zhongzhou for such a person. What a loss!
Realizing that the morale of the army was shaken, Xiao Qianyou said in a deep voice: "Listen, all the soldiers, the other side is obviously talking nonsense. We can't take it seriously. For the time being, we retreat ten miles to camp and recover our strength. We will officially attack the city tomorrow. We must capture Zhongzhou at all costs."
"
Anyway, the city has been occupied, so the team has traveled a long distance. It is a rush march. The physical energy of the officers and soldiers is too much. The old general has the experience to choose to take a temporary rest, recharge his batteries, and prepare for long-term operations. After all, the city of Zhongzhou is extremely strong.
, easy to defend but difficult to attack, I am afraid it will take several days to capture it. As for how Jinghou Lu Shixuan lost the city so easily, it is simply puzzling and made the old general very puzzled.
There is another important figure in the team, that is, an old man riding a giant black leopard. He is not wearing armor, but is wearing a linen robe and holding a goose feather fan. He looks enigmatic. He is the supervisor He Long and also Zhao Hanting.
His confidant was sent to supervise Xiao Qianyou. After all, the old general and his team were not originally from Zhao Hanting's camp. It was only when the new king came to the throne that he had no choice but to swear allegiance. Zhao Hanting was naturally not at ease, so he sent him to appear on the battlefield as a warlord.
