Chapter 442: A life-and-death feud, the rolling stone shows off its evil
On the narrow mountain road, Fang Fengjin gave a "kill" order, and countless soldiers moved upon hearing the order, with murderous intent, pointing directly at the powerful enemy at the top of the city.
On the city wall, Li Xuan did not back down in the face of the situation, and stepped forward boldly, pressing his hand on the eight-sided Han sword, and the long sword was instantly unsheathed.
The cold long sword, illuminated by the morning light, carried an endless chill and hit the hearts of all the Tianyin soldiers, causing them to stop in their tracks.
Dressed in black fish scale armor, from a distance, he looks like a black god.
On the narrow mountain road in the distance, Fang Fengjin looked at Li Xuan with eyes that were like spitting fire, wanting to pounce on him and devour him.
But the anger did not completely burn his reason. Under his command, the Tianyin soldiers began to press forward steadily from hundreds of meters away.
Fang Fengjin's hand tightly grasped the handle of the knife and never let go.
Faced with the endless ridicule of killing his brother and killing his relatives and enemies, although he remained calm, the murderous intention in his heart was already overwhelming.
Li Xuan took a deep look at Fang Fengjin, then looked sideways at Qiu Zhenmu and Zhou Shen, and said lightly: "You two, be prepared. Today, once, they will use all their forces.
Push it up."
"Are they crazy? They want to defeat Meiling Pass in one go?" Qiu Zhenmu and Zhou Shen were shocked at the same time. They had made plans to fight fiercely with the Tianyin Sect for several days. Are they going to decide it in one go now?
Is it a matter of life or death?
"Fang Fengjin has the heavy responsibility of Tianyin Sect's departure from Wuzhou on his shoulders, and he cannot think about it carefully. What's more, he is facing this king, his life-and-death enemy." A slight sneer appeared at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth,
Although Fang Fengjin's behavior surprised him a little, it was just an accident.
He has long been prepared to deal with any changes.
…
On the narrow mountain road, four well rails were pushed hard by dozens of strong soldiers. They were nailed with thick wooden boards, and the wooden boards were covered with three layers of cowhide.
Four well towers with a height of twelve meters are running side by side. From a distance, they seem almost parallel to the city head.
At the top of the well, behind the wooden planks and skins, Xu Shan led several elite archers, staring at the city gate with bows and arrows in their hands.
Behind the well, dozens of archers followed closely, and behind them were two catapults.
There were many people nearby carrying stones in their hands, but the stones seemed to be very light and not that heavy.
Li Xuan could see clearly at a glance that those stones were the piece-leaf stones he had used before. After smashing them, the pieces of stone were spinning like the same pieces.
This kind of stone is very light and can hit farther with the same force.
Especially in this kind of siege battle, once the stone on the city wall explodes, the archers on the city will be immediately affected.
And if this thing hits someone, even though it won't kill them, it will really hurt.
Behind these people, there were more soldiers holding swords and shields, and some soldiers later were holding ladders in their hands.
As long as they can reach the bottom of the city wall and hang up the ladder, they can immediately start a close combat with the soldiers on the wall.
The Tianyin Sect's previous attacks on the city were because their numbers were not large enough, and they did not even reach the city wall a few times, but it was different now, they had enough cannon fodder to sacrifice.
Five hundred people, eight hundred people, one thousand people, as long as enough people die, the soldiers on the wall will soon feel tired.
In the battlefield, fatigue is equivalent to death.
In this way, step by step, all the soldiers in the city were killed on the city wall.
Therefore, in Li Xuan's eyes, the threat of these ladders is greater than those of catapults and well railings.
However, in this way, Li Xuan's soldiers in the city may lose all their soldiers, but those of the Tianyin Sect may suffer more casualties than them.
At least not less than three times.
Now it depends on which aspect cannot be sustained first.
Fang Fengjin had made full preparations long ago, so what could Li Xuan do wrong? Everyone would be fighting to the death.
…
"Trebuchet ready."
As soon as the well on the mountain road came into attack range, Li Xuan immediately raised his sword, followed closely, and slashed downwards.
The next moment, four rounded rolling stones were spinning rapidly in mid-air.
In the blink of an eye, there was a "boom" sound, and four rolling stones hit the top of each well rail almost at the same time.
Suddenly wood chips flew everywhere.
Fang Fengjin's expression suddenly froze.
Although the catapult on the city wall was launched a little late, it hit the top of the well with great accuracy.
Compared with the lower base layer, the uppermost layer has to carry archers, and there are not as many wooden frames on the upper layer as there are on the lower layer.
The rolling stones fell and several wooden sticks were immediately broken.
If the cowhide hadn't been there, an archer might have died under the rolling stones.
The King of Nanchang saw through their weaknesses.
Fang Fengjin frowned, waved his hand, and shouted loudly, "Accelerate."
The catapult placed on the city wall has a much higher range than the Tianyin Sect.
In this distance, even someone as experienced as Fang Fengjin could only watch himself being beaten without fighting back.
Zhang Wanyu stood behind Fang Fengjin, looking at the scene in front of her, her face had already darkened.
She knew that all this must have been done by Li Xuan.
Only he can calculate all these accurately.
"Go on, crush the top archer to death first." Li Xuan coldly ordered again.
"Boom!" Another four rolling stones kept rolling in the air, but each time, they hit the top of the well with the same precision.
It's like everything has been carefully calculated.
Although the soldiers of the Tianyin Sect were advancing steadily, they were still frightened by the constant bombardment of rolling stones.
"Boom, boom, boom", rolling stones kept hitting the top layer of the well.
Finally, there was a click, the wooden pillar on the well railing broke directly, and the rolling stone and the cowhide hit an archer hard.
Without saying a word, the archer fell directly from the well railing, and his blood flowed all over the ground.
The rolling stone fell from the top of the well, directly grazing the top of the catapult and hitting the ground hard.
The surrounding Tianyin soldiers immediately and subconsciously moved out of the way, and the rolling stone quickly rolled backwards along the path they got out of the way.
Seeing this scene, Li Xuan sneered slightly at the corner of her mouth.
The next moment, the top of another well was smashed to pieces, and the falling stone hit a head directly: "Bang!"
More rolling stones fell from the air, causing large areas of bloody killing.
Li Xuan's eyes fell on Fang Fengjin again.
"Speed up!" Although Li Xuan couldn't hear Fang Fengjin's voice, Li Xuan could recognize his mouth shape at a glance.
In an instant, the people below who were pushing the remaining well railing pushed harder, pushing the well railing harder and faster.
"Brother Qiu!" Li Xuan suddenly called Qiu Zhenmu, and Qiu Zhenmu immediately stepped forward. The Qianniu Guard behind him had already put a long bow into Qiu Zhenmu's hands. In the blink of an eye, he had already opened the bow and nocked an arrow.
.
However, the arrow was not shot immediately. Qiu Zhenmu was still staring at the well in the distance.
At the sound of the catapult coming two hundred and fifty steps from Jinglan, Li Xuan and Qiu Zhenmu's faces lit up at the same time.
Jing Lan had just pushed forward, and the next moment, he heard a "boom".
A two-meter-wide ravine suddenly opened in the center of the mountain road, and the well fell down.
The ravine is not deep. This is a mountain road after all, and the deepest is only half a meter.
As long as there are enough people grabbing the well rail at the same time and pulling upwards with force, the well rail will be pulled up immediately.
That's what Fang Fengjin did. Not only did he greet his men, he even rushed forward himself.
Just when Fang Fengjin and his men rushed forward with rolling rocks above their heads that could hit them, a rocket suddenly shot from the front.
Immediately afterwards, billowing flames immediately broke out from below the well, and the flames rose rapidly.
"Tung oil!" Fang Fengjin suddenly lost his cool and stared at the city head with gritted teeth.
Not only were dead grass placed under the well, but tung oil was also hidden under the dead grass.
In an instant, the four wells were engulfed in rolling flames.
With a "bang" sound, Fang Fengjin stepped hard on a well railing. With one kick, he directly smashed the flaming layer in the lower half of the well railing. At the same time, he kicked the rest of the well railing.
The part, flat, was kicked to the front.
