The sky is dim, and the evening clouds are drooping.

The army of the Tianshou King rushed forward like a tide, and in a blink of an eye, Nanping Junfu City was besieged into an isolated island.

The trees outside the city were cut down by the Jingzhou army, and the ground was also destroyed by thousands of gullies, like unsightly scars, and like reefs protruding from the sea, barely visible in the huge waves overwhelming the sky, in an instant Disappear without a trace.

The rebel army pushed the wheelbarrow full of sand into the trap trench and laid planks for people to pass through.

They brought these things from Huaxian County, which is only half a day away from Fucheng, so it’s easy to transport them all the way.

The defenders in the city saw that the first line of defense laid down so hard was gone, and they were all frightened and angry.

“Unreasonable!” General Ma, who was sitting at the top of the city, almost went to Jingzhou to settle accounts.

Before, it was said that the army of the Tianshou King was mud-legged, and it was a vagrant whose eyes were red from hunger. It looked unstoppable. In fact, as long as the first few waves of offensive were held, the vagrant panicked with no food in his stomach, and naturally went to other people. Place.

Here the city walls are high and the city is deep. There is no shortage of food and grass and troops in the city. It has the support of King Jing and many families. General Han’s brain is hot, thinking about wealth and danger, family revitalization is on his shoulders, so Took this errand.

As a result, there was no fight, only this one met, and General Han wanted to curse.

“The rabble crowds who live to hell, the obvious art of war governing the army, look at this queue, are you brought out by generals who don’t understand the art of war?”

Prepared to fill the trenches with sand and sand planks, without stepping on them, and able to maintain consistent cooperation. General Han felt that his Jingzhou army did not have such skills, and he immediately yelled.

The guards were already nervous, but when they heard the movement, they were suddenly panicked.

Several lieutenants reluctantly remedyed: “…it should be those evil and crooked banners that are playing tricks, fooling the people, just follow along, there is no way of war.”

“Yes, no matter how neatly you pave the bridge and the road, you can’t prove that you are a good soldier. The adversary is the mud leg from Yizhou. The mountain road over there is steep. You may have been used to this a long time ago.”

When it comes to this, they are about to convince themselves.

Yes, it must be the case, otherwise how to explain that a group of refugees who can’t eat enough to swept across Jingzhou.

It must have been the first to underestimate their combat power, and then see that the rebel lineup overestimated their abilities, scared to avoid the battle or even flee.

General Han spat fiercely, his face improved, and a series of orders were issued, and all the bows, arrows, and rocks were ready.

He thought that this was the evening, and the first wave of offensive against the army would certainly not last too long, so it would not be difficult to sustain it.

——The poor people have the last meal but not the next. As soon as the night comes, they can’t see clearly what they are going to fight.

Don’t talk about the refugees, except for some elite soldiers, most of the Jingzhou army also has night blindness, and night battles are impossible to fight. This has to be for the Qi army in the upper north. General Han may still be worried. I don’t know how the Qi sergeants are treated. The army’s meals are not severely deducted. What if people’s eyes are good at night! But here is a group of rebellious troops, what should I worry about?

General Han waved his hand and ordered an arrow to be released.

Seeing the rebels falling down like wheat in the city, I laughed suddenly.

“Keep on shooting these bastards.” General Han strode to the edge of the city wall and cursed happily.

The front line of the adversary began to chaos, but this chaos did not last long, because it was easier to charge forward than to turn back and run back. If you ran out of the range of the bow and arrow, you would naturally not be attacked by the cold arrow.

“Boom.”

As the first rebel soldier slashed heavily on the city gate with an ax in his hand, the frantic impact began.

Throwing rolling stones, logs, and even boiling water down the city.

Suddenly the flesh and blood became soil that could be trampled on. Most of the people who fell were not fatally injured, but could not stand up for a while, but soon they died. No one noticed how they died, the people behind kept rushing up, and the people on the wall kept throwing smashed stones.

Soon, the fallen stones and logs and even the accumulated corpses became protective barriers.

No matter what you throw, you can’t get out as far away as before, sweeping a large area at a time.

“Stop! Stop it!”

General Han was shocked and quickly ordered.

After Nanping County demolished the houses, there was no shortage of stones or wood. Seeing the look of the Tianshou King’s army like a mad tiger, the guards of the city were also panicked, and they smashed their bows and smashed the rocks desperately, wasting a lot of arrows. Said that the thrown stones and wood were also piled together.

This was supposed to be a predicament that only appeared after an hour of fierce battle, but the adversary rushed too violently, the defenders were too panic, and the city was too late to dispatch.

Although General Han wakes up in time, the first opportunity has been lost.

The gongs and drums are clamoring, and the horns blaring.

A group of soldiers wearing armor and holding shields suddenly appeared in the Heavenly Granted King’s Army.

They held their shields above their heads and moved forward slowly under the rain of arrows.

The guardian of the Holy Lotus Altar kept shouting fascinating words, and her ears were filled with instrumental music of various gongs, drums, and snails. In addition to the smoke and dust flying in front of the city wall, the logs and stones piled up in mountains, making it difficult for the soldiers behind. Know the casualties of the front line.

When I slowly got closer and saw corpses everywhere, the array suddenly appeared chaotic.

“The demon has been tracked down. If we can’t take down the city today and gain the power of the heavenly soldiers through the city’s gods and temples in the county, we will all die!”

The sharp voice of the saint echoed in the ears of the rebel soldiers. This time they did not wear a veil, and the number of congregants and guardians around them was particularly large.

Seeing that the saints who worshipped on weekdays were all rushing into the battle, the rebellious mood was barely stabilized.

Since the demon attacked Hua County the day before yesterday, causing many congregations and the rebel generals to be injured, they have heard the word demon like a bird of fright.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing and hearing is not. Master Luo blocked the blood shadow demon. He did not expect that there was another demon hiding in the dark. Suddenly, they didn’t even see the appearance of the demon. Some people felt that the things under the firelight were instantly distorted. Some people saw the flames being absorbed into a whirlpool by inexplicable power. Some felt that the demon wind was unsteady, and then there was a strong headache and dizziness. , Can’t distinguish the north, south, east, and west. When I recovered, I found myself lying on the ground with a bleeding in my nose and mouth.

This is not a monster. What is it?

I heard that King Tianshou was seriously injured.

I heard that Lord Luo had repelled the demons.

The sacrifice to the sky is unsuccessful, blood stains the universe, and there will be a catastrophe.

Some people are timid and want to escape. Anyway, they have reached the treasured land of Jiangnan, grab some things, and then find a village to farm and hunt. They should be able to survive. However, those who ran out at night were all hanged on the upper floors of Hua County the next day. , The corpse was covered with bloodstains, very strange.

There is a rumor in the army that the demon stayed not far away, without the protection of the saint, and was not ordered to go out at all.

The ceremony of sacrificing to heaven was held again. The burning spices made people dizzy, and the blessings of the scriptures that were used to listen to the blessings lingered in the ears, and the priests of the Holy Lotus Altar said that they had no food and food in the past and were struggling with hunger and cold. It rekindled the panic in the heart of the rebellious sergeant.

Yes, there is no land to cultivate. Once it doesn’t rain or there is a flood, Chengdu will be confiscated for the whole year.

Even if you can escape the evil spirits and run away in chaos, the tax collector’s office can kill the whole family. It’s better to fight hard and become a rich man who can collect rent without being an official.

——Having killed people and stained hands with blood, I feel that this matter is not difficult.

Everyone held their weapons tightly, their mouths screamed lowly, and there was another bewilderment in their ears, and they blessed.

“Kill!”

“Ziwei Hengzhao!”

Only by following the Tianshou King can they survive. They didn’t starve to death, and they went all the way to Jiangnan.

“Kill!”

“Destiny comes to the world!”

The shouts under the city gradually changed from clutter to order, and the gongs and drums suddenly stopped afterwards, and tens of thousands of people shouted a killing word at the same time.

The oncoming sound wave shook the spears and halberds resting on the wall, and the sand and dust rolled off.

The Jingzhou army stationed on the head of the city turned pale, and some had weakened feet.

The second shout that followed, as if thunder rolling across the horizon.

The sky will be exhausted, and the lonely city will be absolutely territorial.

From a distance, it looks like a reef in the desert that is about to be submerged by the black tide. The afterglow of the sunset cannot pass through the thick clouds, only looming in the cracks, and it is sinking gradually at the same time. The darkness is an invisible monster, and the shadow slowly climbs up the city wall, about to swallow everything.

***

“It’s awful.”

Meng Qi’s expression changed suddenly, and his breath was uneven.

Seeing that Huaxian County has become an empty city, he knows that he is not good, and grabs Moli and hurries forward.

In a moment, I ran into Fengxing Pavilion on the side of the road.

“Where is the Heavenly Grant King Army?”

“Two hours ago, I might have arrived at Nanping County’s Fucheng.”

It was Shao Shanhu who was talking. He gasped and said, “Fei Ge has gone to Jiang Xia. I am on the order of the pavilion lord, and I am looking for several seniors from the Hengshan Sect to control the sacred lotus altar. The longer the guardian of the Dharma and the Pilitang, the longer the Nanping prefecture is kept, the more advantageous it will be.”

“Pavilion Master Qiu is right, but the premise is… can be held.”

Meng Qi felt troubled after seeing the Tianshou King’s deployment and the location of the grain and grass in Huaxian’s garrison.

The rebellious army seems disorderly, but through the Holy Lotus Altar to restrain the foolish people, it can temporarily turn them into an orderly and prohibited army.

That’s all, many details show that there are a large number of soldiers in the Tianshou King Formation who are used to the army. Meng Qi looked at the camp with perfect accuracy. He must know that no matter how far-sighted the general is, it is no use for the generals. The soldiers under him are not up to the task, and a camp with fire and cooking can make mistakes and omissions everywhere.

Also occupies the residential houses of Huaxian County, and the rebel army is divided into two completely different branches. Some people just look for a big house and wish for a high bed warm pillow, and some people gather together to live in a scattered house surrounded in a circle, and they have gotten through. Part of the wall.

“It’s definitely not just the refugees and the people, but also the elite soldiers.” Meng Qi suddenly woke up, and slammed his sleeves. The sand was flying around his feet, and the stones were about to be stepped out of a pit by him. “Before Yizhou was Chu In the territory of the dynasty, the imperial court not only has garrisons in Xuanchuan Pass, where did the soldiers in the counties of Yizhou go?”

It is impossible to be all killed by the refugees, or all of them escaped and disappeared.

“Qi Chao did not control these troops at all, nor was he able to retrieve them.”

Meng Qi gritted his teeth and said word by word, “After the government is incompetent and defeated by the Holy Lotus Altar or the Heavenly Grant King, these soldiers may fall into the grass and become thieves, and then the Heavenly Grant King will gather them in.”

This time around, even though the number of soldiers has dropped sharply, they have escaped the eyes of outsiders, thinking that the adversaries are all refugees and bandits who can’t eat.

But a soldier who is used to the army, meets a general who understands the art of war, and uses the beauty of wealth to promote and make a fortune as a carrot hanging in front of him. Eliminating half of it can make a look.

“Lu Zhang, this waste!”

Meng Qi was very angry, reaching out to support his forehead.

In the past ten years of Chuli in the Qi Dynasty, until he met Moli, Meng Qi didn’t know much about what happened outside Shangyun Mountain, especially in remote places such as Yizhou, Pingzhou and Yanzhou.

“Where is King Jing, who is currently guarding the city in Nanping County?”

You must ask Fengxingge about these matters. Moli is still calm, because he feels that the Jingzhou army is incompetent. At this juncture, the people who are pushed by the bureaucrats of Jingzhou to assume the responsibility must be somewhat capable. After all, it is about the life of the family.

Meng Qi is not as optimistic as Moli, because he knows that there are many people who are still confused at a critical juncture.

The most troublesome thing is that he has a high self-esteem. Others believe that he has the ability. As a result, he can’t change his head with straw-filled generals. The line of defense collapses, and the gods can’t save the defeat.

“It is General Han Fu. The Han family is the commander of the Jingzhou military household. The family separated from the main sect once controlled all the horse transactions in Jingzhou, but it got into trouble that year. The Jingzhou Han family has now fallen.” Shaking Mountain Tiger deserves to be born in Fengxing Pavilion, and he pulled people out for several generations with one mouth. “…This is a bit strange, Fengxing Pavilion did not find out the reason.”

Meng Qi paused, his eyes a little strange.

Shaking Mountain Tiger quickly explained: “I have my surname Han in Xia. Although I can’t fight with them, the ups and downs of the Jingzhou clan are all recorded in Fengxing Pavilion. I just took a few more glances. Recently, it seems I heard that this incident has something to do with the people of Xiliang.”

No, in the Han family who had been selling horses in Jingzhou and disappeared inexplicably, wasn’t it just the unlucky one who bought a Su Li and whipped him all day, and was finally caught up in the horse business by Ayan Puka?

Moli also thought of this.

Shaking Shanhu didn’t know the inside story, and asked in shock: “Is there any remnants from Xiliang…”

“No.” Meng Qi waved his hand. “It’s useless to say more, we need to rush to Nanping County Fucheng as soon as possible.”

Everyone in Fengxing Pavilion looked at each other.

It won’t be, it’s only a few hours now, even if Han Fu is a straw bag, Fucheng won’t fall immediately.

Meng Qi is not in the mood to tell them more.

It is really unpredictable to defend the city. Some cities can be held for half a year, and some cities may not be able to hold them overnight.

It doesn’t even matter how many defenders there are, how many lines are on the wall, or whether it’s strong or not.

——Meng Qi caught up with the worst result.

Night shrouded the earth.

The fire blazed into the sky in the distance.

Mo Li regained his strength in amazement, stopped beside Meng Qi, and looked at the Nanping County Mansion City where the gates were open.

“What is going on?”

“…There are too many stones thrown down at the top of the city.”

Meng Qi murmured, with the eyesight of him and Moli, he could see the general situation without a telescope.

“The defenders were too flustered and confused. The Han Fu probably thought that the Heavenly Grant King Army would not continue to attack the city at night, and did not pay attention to this… The people of the rivers and lakes have no problem with not seeing things at night. They rely on rocks. Stepping on your feet and wearing a rope grappling hook will allow you to climb up the city wall.”

In order to defend the city, the Jingzhou Army must light a torch.

With the light, the rebellious army continued to attack unscrupulously, and such a long city wall, there must be shadows that are hard to find. Once the people of the Holy Lotus Altar jump on the city wall, the Jingzhou Army has no will to fight to the death, defense line It collapsed instantly.
