Zhang Yan didn't know when he fell asleep. Anyway, he squinted while meditating. He even had a dream, dreaming that he would fly to the sky, catch stars and reach the moon...
But Zhang Yan knew how he woke up. He was dragged out of his dream by the dull and heart-wrenching horn sound. This sound was deeply engraved in his soul from the first time he heard it.
, even if you are in deep sleep, you will immediately turn over and sit up after hearing this sound and wake up quickly.
"Quick, quick, quick! Hurry up and gather! Hurry up! You're so special, put on your leather armor! Hurry up!"
When the trumpet sounds, the assembly must be completed within a hundred breaths, and the city wall must be climbed within three hundred breaths. This is an iron rule that frontline soldiers must abide by. If anyone misses the time, he will be killed even if he does not die in the battle formation.
The executioners who supervise the war team beheaded him.
In fact, it didn’t take a hundred breaths to get together. Everyone slept in their clothes and got up immediately when they heard the horn. The clothes and armor were pullover style and didn’t need to be tied up, so getting dressed was very fast, only fifty or sixty breaths.
By then, Zhang Yan's group had already finished gathering, and then followed the rest of the battalion's companions who also rushed out of the tent and quickly headed towards the city wall defense area not far away.
This was Zhang Yan's second time to experience a night battle. Compared to fighting during the day, the night battle made him a little more nervous.
Unlike the human race, the demon race will not be affected too much at night. They can use the weak moonlight to achieve vision similar to that of the day, but the human race needs to use firelight and cannot see things clearly at long distances.
Under the cover of night, the demon clan's offensive is more difficult to defend against, and will also cause greater casualties to the defenders on the city wall than during the day. Naturally, the situation is more dangerous.
The sound of rapid footsteps and the shouts of killing came one after another. When he rushed to the city wall, Zhang Yan saw at the first sight that the criminal soldier named "Little Monkey" who took his place during the day had been divided into two parts, most of them
The head fell to the ground, and the remaining parts and body were thrown at the stairs.
"Go up and kill him! Kill him quickly and take back your position! Quickly!"
The first task that Hua Gou, Zhang Yan and others received as soon as they climbed onto the city wall was to kill the three demon soldiers who had already jumped onto the city wall and regain the position that they and their group were supposed to be guarding.
Six people, against three monster soldiers. This is almost a life-threatening mission. But when the arrow is on the string, it can only be sent out without any possibility of stagnation. Even if the arrow is shot on a stone and breaks, it still has to be fired.
"Brothers! There is no retreat! If you take a step back, the war team will use your heads as a ball to kick. Your family will also be humiliated later. Instead, rush forward. Even if you die in the battle, you will be able to live a small life with a pension. Fight hard.
Bar!"
"kill!"
"Kill them!"
"Fight!"
Zhang Yan also had red eyes, like a wild beast ready to fight for his life.
Two against one, simple and crude. One person pounces on the enemy in close combat, while the other waits for an opportunity to stab. None of them are warriors, so they can only fight for their lives using this seemingly extremely hasty method.
The person who cooperated with Zhang Yan was Hua Gou. I don’t know if Hua Gou did it intentionally. He pulled Zhang Yan and pushed himself forward, and said, "Be more ruthless, don't let me die!"
Zhang Yan and Hua Gou had only known each other for a few days, but he swore that he really understood Hua Gou's last look, that he really put his life in his hands.
Suddenly, Zhang Yan felt as if his shoulders were much heavier, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the spear in his hand.
Huagou knows some punches and kicks, and he also has a lot of ferocity and strength, but he is still not good enough when facing the demon soldiers. It is not easy to hold him for a while. So he gives Zhang Yan very little time.
"... Ba Hai knows that the demon king has his head tied up and his bodyguard is my guard. The evil will dissipate and the energy of the Tao will remain forever!"
"The Divine Curse of Purifying Heaven and Earth" was chanted quickly in Zhang Yan's mouth over and over again. The continuous sound seemed to have an inexplicable shock. It was clearly like the slight sound of a fly's wings, but it was deafening.
?
One breath, two breaths... Time flies, and even with the help of the "God's Curse for Purifying Heaven and Earth", the flower dog is still about to die.
"quick!"
Zhang Yan turned a deaf ear. He could feel that the demon soldiers in his eyes seemed to be subconsciously avoiding him, and seemed very anxious even if they got close.
It's the apotropaic charm at work!
Coupled with the double weakening of "The Divine Curse of Pure Heaven and Earth", the demon soldier's movements also began to go out of shape. It was obvious that a straight slash could kill the flower dog, but in the end his hand visibly shook, and the trajectory of the slash changed.
The flower dog escaped. This situation is becoming more and more frequent.
After ten breaths, Zhang Yan finally moved. First, he feinted to the right, tricking the demon soldier into subconsciously avoiding the direction, and then thrust out his spear, stabbing at the position where Zhang Yan predicted that the opponent would have a fatal flaw after he avoided.
Phew!
The position where the spear appeared was exactly where the demon soldier's head appeared after subconsciously avoiding it, and then the eye sockets overlapped with the tip of the spear.
The familiar soft and waxy feel and the hardness after touching the skull made Zhang Yan know that he had succeeded. Then he quickly drew the gun and watched the demon soldier fall straight down.
Done!
But before Zhang Yan could jump for joy, the yellow dog was already calling him loudly to reinforce the companions behind him, while the flower dog took the first step to reach the section of the city wall previously occupied by the demon soldiers, holding a gun to deal with those who wanted to climb up.
The monster soldiers coming up.
After having a successful killing experience, Zhang Yan felt more confident. He used the effects of divine spells and exorcism talismans to predict the subconscious actions of the demon soldiers without even noticing them, and caught the demon soldiers' movements.
, coupled with the involvement of his companions, it is actually not too difficult to hit the vital point with one shot, at least for Zhang Yan today.
In less than forty breaths, only four of Zhang Yan's group were left. Two of them were hacked to death by demon soldiers during the previous fight for offensive and defensive positions. However, Zhang Yan relied on his incredible performance to shoot three times with three accurate shots.
With a sudden thrust, he stabbed out the demon soldier's eye socket to achieve an instant kill, reversed the disadvantage and took back the section of the city wall where they were stationed.
However, Zhang Yan and the others were able to stabilize this period, which does not mean that other defense areas could be stabilized as quickly. From time to time, monster soldiers would attack from the side, requiring Zhang Yan and the others to concentrate on cleaning up. Fortunately, reinforcements were coming one after another.
Quickly, as the warriors from the elite battalion rushed over, the battle situation was effectively controlled.
And the sky gradually brightened unconsciously.
"Okay, let's rest for a while. The general manager just said it, praising our side for being the fastest. And if our side is stable, it will interrupt the continuity of the demon clan's siege and cut off their strength on the city wall.
The combination of forces gave the brothers in the elite battalion behind them the opportunity to defeat them one by one. We should be able to remember a great achievement this time!"
Huagou limped back from behind. He had just been called to listen. But when he came back, he had a thick smile on his face. Although two people in his group died this time, they were the strongest in the camp.
An eye-catching defensive area, and it played a big role in stabilizing the defensive line in last night's offense and defense.
