Chapter 240 The Old Man(1/2)

 The north wind is like a knife, blowing up thousands of piles of snow.

Due to the life-threatening impact of the war giant, cracks on the surface of the towering city wall spread quickly like spider webs, and the smoke and snow mist-filled city top screamed to the sky.

Under the control of the second prince, the city defense formation successfully killed a thick-headed ice beast colossus during the attack, but the impact of the last bear-shaped colossus directly shattered the overloaded Nancheng formation.

The tactical goal of the barbarian alien king at the expense of the three-headed ice giant has been achieved.

Although the mountain-like city wall has not been completely collapsed, the entire city defense formation in the south of the city has been completely paralyzed.

What's more important is that the corpse of the war colossus dumped on the city wall directly became a natural trestle leading to the city gate tower.

The barbarian vanguard troops divided into two groups and attacked the city and the bombed Arc de Triomphe like evil wolves.

The two armies came into contact in an instant.

The condensed totems of the barbarians and the condensed shadows of the halberds of the Great Yan army kept intertwining and colliding, causing a roar.

In a war of this scale, most high-level cultivators dare not show their faces.

But at this critical moment, there will still be high-level cultivators who risk their lives and take action, killing a large area of ​​enemy troops and then escaping in an instant.

Naturally, this included Zhou Chen, who was forcibly deployed to defend the city.

Zhou Chen pulled out the jade sword from his back, and just used his kung fu to kill a group of barbarian soldiers who had climbed onto the city wall to stand firm and wait for follow-up reinforcements. Just as he was about to run away, he felt that his aura was locked.

Later,

It was too late, but it was too soon, and a white tiger totem shot directly towards him from the snow smoke under the city!

The speed was so fast that even he had no time to dodge.

Zhou Chen's pupils shrank, and the black Daoyun sword that had been prepared flashed and he swung it towards the giant tiger's shadow.

"Boom!"

Two violent sources of energy collided with each other on the city tower, and a large crater appeared on the city wall.

And Zhou Chen couldn't bear the force. The moment the roar sounded, he turned into an afterimage and fell towards the city at a high speed, smashing through several buildings and sending up a cloud of smoke in the city. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

And this is just a corner of the entire war.

Every minute, no, every second, countless Yanren and barbarians died in this meat grinder. The bone spurs pierced the heart, the spiritual blade cut off the head, and the bright red and black blood flowed through Nancheng at an extremely fast speed.

Spread

Even if they shout to kill Zhentian, countless barbarians have already attached themselves to the city wall, and the city gate tower, as the largest stronghold in the southern city, is still as stable as Mount Tai.

Yuan Hao ignored the fighting below because he had no time to pay attention to it at the moment.

His eyes were fixed on the looming figure of the last war giant of the barbarians.

An excellent general can always quickly analyze the biggest threat on the battlefield.

Nowadays, the situation in Nancheng is indeed in danger, but the biggest threat is not the barbarians who attack the city, nor the barbarians who enter the city through the triumphal gate, but the last surviving war colossus.

Without the attack means of the city defense formation, the defensive equipment on the city wall would not be able to cause fatal damage to the war colossus, and once the war colossus arrived under the southern city

Most of the city wall might be smashed down by that beast.

Once the city wall is destroyed, the entire southern city will be undefendable.

Once the War Colossus enters the city, the chain reaction caused will directly lead to the complete loss of Beifeng City.

There is no need for street fighting.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and a trace of solemnity flashed across Yuan Hao's delicate face.

His Highness Wu Yuan gave him 30,000 sect border troops to command, so he did not use his own black scale army.

Nowadays, most of the defenders above the city are sect frontier troops, and he has only sent a small number of middle-level non-commissioned officers to enforce organizational discipline among them.

As for his Black Scale Army, they formed a military formation in the city and served as the supervising team.

Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!

Among them, there are considerations of preserving strength and considerations of the overall situation.

A very simple truth,

If the Black Scale Army and these frontier troops were to defend the city together on the city wall, regardless of the different martial arts and unable to form a joint military formation, the important thing is that the morale of the Black Scale Army could easily be defeated by this group of pigs.

Once defeated, the entire battle in Nancheng will be completely ruined.

And if the Black Scale Army is allowed to hold the front, once the Black Scale Army suffers too many casualties while defending the city and needs to retreat, it would be simply wishful thinking to rely on these second-line sect side troops to recapture the city gate.

However, after the war started, the development of the war situation was somewhat beyond Yuan Hao's expectations.

The exhaustive strategy only exists in picture books.

Although Yuan Hao had made a lot of preparations before the war, he never expected that the smoke and dust released by the "blocking the sun" and the snow mist rising from the snow would actually act as a "reassurance pill" for the sect's border troops defending the city.

In a haze with blocked vision,

People can only see the area in front of them. Even if someone is afraid of death and wants to escape, others who are fighting to the death cannot see it.

During the red-eye killing stage, we were actually in a stalemate with these menacing barbarians for a while.

It’s an unexpected surprise.

Thinking of this, Yuan Hao looked at the giant war statue running towards the city wall like a trembling mountain, and tightened his grip on the sword slightly.

A decision needs to be made.

He must lead the Black Scale Army out of the city to kill the remaining colossus.

Taking a deep breath, Yuan Hao glanced back at the black scale army preparing to go out under the city.

There is a high probability that this trip out of the city will lead to a narrow escape, and there is no guarantee of success, but he must do it, otherwise it will be a narrow escape.

With the decision made in his heart, Yuan Hao didn't pause at all. He immediately said solemnly to the newly appointed deputy general assigned to him by Li Qingyan, a middle-aged man with a beard who was also the commander-in-chief of the sect's 30,000 border troops:

"Vice General Qing, no matter what method you use, you must use your soldiers to defend the city wall."

Vice General Qing frowned slightly when he heard this.

He can see the overall situation clearly, so he is trying his best to control the military formation and maintain the defense line of the city wall.

But seeing the overall situation clearly did not affect his dislike of the Yuan Commander.

As the eye of the formation that maintains the frontier army formation, Qing Genglan can clearly sense that every moment now, countless brothers under him have disappeared forever.

Why?

Why is it that your Yuan Hao's Black Scale Army is supervising the battle from behind, while his brothers are fighting on the front line?

After a moment of silence, Vice General Qing still cupped his hands and gritted his teeth and said:

"This is natural. The Black Scale Guards led by Yuan are supervising the battle in the rear. Naturally, my soldiers dare not retreat."

Yuan Hao looked at Vice General Qing and said calmly:

"Don't feel unbalanced, I will personally take the Black Scale Guard out of the city immediately."

Vice General Qing was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He could naturally see the battle situation clearly and subconsciously glanced at the mountain-like shadow a few miles away:

"Leave the city? You want to go out of the city to kill the giant statue?"

Yuan Hao smiled, as if chatting:

"Vice General Qing, you should know very well that if we don't kill the giant statue, we will all die here."

The words fell,

The two generals on the city gate were silent for a moment.

The high-altitude biting hurricane roared past, but the shouts of death no longer had the chill in the sky.

After counting for a while, Yuan Hao didn't get a reply and turned around and left.

Fighters cannot be delayed.

And at this time,

Qing Genglan, with his eyes downcast, suddenly said loudly behind Yuan Hao:

"Now the reserve team of reinforcements in the city will arrive soon, and Qing will organize an army of soldiers to clear the way for Yuan to lead you."

Yuan Hao paused slightly and looked back in surprise.

Qing Genglan smiled with his unshaven mouth:

"Commander Yuan, if we have different paths, we will not work together. We were not on the same road before, and we may even fight against each other in the future.

"But at this moment,

"I think we should be considered colleagues."

A moment of silence,

Yuan Hao took a deep look at the unshaven middle-aged man, chuckled and shook his head:

"You're pretty good. I'll be gentler in the future."
