Chapter five hundred and twentieth IX Xiong Zhizhi
There was a sound of bowstrings, and arrows shot down from the city wall like raindrops!
With a deep pit at their feet and arrows on their heads, the navy soldiers couldn't help but burst into chaos. They screamed and wailed constantly, and twenty or thirty people were immediately killed. These imperial officers and soldiers looked very neat on the outside, but they usually shrank in the water.
In the division camp, the battle formations had been sparse for a long time, so when they were attacked by the enemy, their true colors were immediately revealed.
Cao Muyun, who was standing far away, frowned when he saw this scene.
Huo Jincheng, the governor, shouted loudly, pulled out his sword in his hand, and rushed forward with hissing. Anyone who dared to retreat was immediately killed, so the soldiers in front finally did not retreat.
In fact, the traps dug on the gravel ground are limited after all. As long as they are stepped on, the soldiers behind will know to avoid them. The arrows shot from the city wall are not too many. They only sparse after a while.
, probably because the number of pirates defending the city is limited.
After more than ten people were killed or injured, the officers and soldiers finally rushed to the city wall with their shields on their backs, mounted ladders and began to attack the city.
This siege battle was really futile. The navy soldiers were not good at sieges, and the improvised ladders were also very narrow. It was very difficult for the officers and soldiers to climb up, and they finally managed to climb to the crenellation.
, was also chopped down by the pirates on the city, making it difficult to climb the wall.
However, it seems that there are not many guards on the city wall. Apart from some bows and crossbows, there are no too powerful means to cause too much harm to the officers and soldiers attacking the city. The latest chapter of The Ring of Beast Taming.
The battle lasted for as long as a stick of incense. Cao Muyun's face became increasingly ugly. Finally, he slapped the hilt of his sword and ordered: "Ming Jin, withdraw the troops!"
Hearing the sound of the gong, a group of officers and soldiers attacking the city hurriedly turned around and ran away. A dozen more people were shot down from behind by pirates' arrows and crossbows, and then they finally retreated.
The five hundred officers and soldiers who rushed forward to attack the city fell into a trap, were shot by arrows, and hacked to death by pirates. In addition, those who were not afraid of falling when climbing ladders lost a total of ten soldiers.
, now there are only about 400 people who have retreated, but all of them are wearing crooked armor and are in a very embarrassed state.
Then Huo Jincheng knelt down in front of Cao Muyun, kowtowed and said: "The last general has failed in his attack on the city. His crime deserves death. Please punish Mr. Cao!"
Cao Muyun said with a gloomy face: "Huo Jincheng, as a sixth-grade general of Zhenfu, are these the elite soldiers under your command?"
The military system of the Ming Dynasty was poor, and the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers was low. It was similar in all states and prefectures. Cao Muyun was not unaware that this attack on the city was only for testing, and he would not let go after losing hundreds of soldiers.
In my heart, the only thing that made Cao Muyun angry was that the siege was in vain and did not achieve any probing effect at all. None of the five hundred elite soldiers attacked the city, even if the "Black Dragon Palace" was really ambushed in the city wall.
It is impossible to attract a large group of people.
Faced with Cao Muyun's rebuke, Huo Jincheng's face was filled with fear. He just knelt down and kowtowed, not even daring to answer a single sentence.
Xiong Bailing took a step forward and said: "Leave the matter of attacking the city to me and the Dazhen tribe! We will definitely attack the city within a cup of tea!"
Cao Muyun's face softened slightly and he said: "Then I have to thank Mr. Xiong! If we encounter an ambush when we attack the city, please Mr. Xiong not to fight and withdraw quickly, and we will make another plan."
Xiong Bailing said: "Don't worry, Mr. Cao, I have my own sense of proportion!" He then turned to Sima Rulan and said: "Niece Lan'er, wait a minute, Uncle Xiong will help you capture Black Dragon City right now!"
Previously, Xiong Bailing led his people to defect to the "Black Dragon Palace" and committed the crime of betraying the sect. Although Sima Rulan didn't care and wanted him to be reinstated as the deputy head of the "Wanjin Hall", Xiong Bailing felt extremely guilty in his heart.
He refused even to the point of death. This time during the attack on Black Dragon Island, Xiong Bailing had already made up his mind to fight the enemy bravely, in order to avenge his past shame and repay Sima Rulan's trust in him.
Sima Rulan took Xiong Bailing's hand and said, "Uncle Xiong, you should be more careful!"
Previously, the officers and soldiers attacked the city and made six useless ladders, but the Dazhen tribe had another idea. When Xiong Bailing shouted "cut down the trees!", these sturdy giants immediately pulled out the giant axes and machetes behind their backs.
, greeted the woods next to it, and in almost a moment, more than 30 large trees were cut down and cut into logs four to five feet long.
Then Xiong Bailing shouted: "Leave!"
The three hundred bear warriors immediately formed thirty columns and carried the logs on their shoulders. Xiong Bailing shouted again: "Charge!" The bear warriors roared and took long strides towards the city wall.
He rushed over. Xiong Bailing also stepped forward and followed the team.
Although these bear-bearded giants look rough and rough, and their clothes are very messy, they move in a uniform manner, obeying orders and prohibitions without any violation. They are obviously truly elites who have been trained for a long time. They look brighter than the armor, but they become chaotic when they charge.
The officers and soldiers are completely different from each other just from their momentum!
The trap that once made the navy soldiers cry for their fathers and mothers was completely invisible in front of the big warriors. Although these giant men have not practiced the real superior Qinggong, they are better because of their height and long legs, and they can take a long stride.
, they have already crossed the huge pit which is about ten feet wide.
Approaching within thirty feet of the city wall, the pirate crossbowmen on the wall began to fire arrows again, but it was also difficult to pose a threat to the big warriors. The logs they had cut down previously were carried on their shoulders. At this time, there was a roar,
They were all held up to the top of their heads with one hand. These logs were very thick, and when they were lifted above their heads, they immediately blocked most of the arrows.
In the other hand of the bears, they were holding machetes, giant axes and other weapons. These weapons were thick and big, not much smaller than ordinary shields. They could easily block the arrows that were shot at them.
The branches were all blocked, the latest chapter of Twin Gods Cultivators.
Whether it was traps or crossbows, not only could they not injure anyone in the Ozu tribe, they could not even slightly slow down their pace!
Xiong Bailing followed the team and stepped over the trap as if he were on level ground. The arrows fired at him were knocked down to the ground with a swipe of his giant palm.
The three hundred officers and soldiers rushed to the city wall much faster than the previous three hundred officers and soldiers. As soon as they arrived at the wall, they heard another loud roar from these giant men, and thirty logs stood upright.
It was placed on the stone wall, making a heavy banging sound! Then they climbed up to the top of the city wall by climbing on the logs one by one.
Bears can climb trees. The speed of these big-headed giants climbing logs is definitely no slower than that of black bears. Moreover, when they climb up, they only reach two feet and one arm, and the other hand holds a
Armed with weapons, he constantly blocked the flying arrows fired from the city wall.
In the blink of an eye, thirty logs were covered with people, and the giant man who climbed to the top was in close combat with the pirates on the city. Several screams could be heard amidst the clash of weapons,
But the pirates on the city were hacked to death, and the giant men had already reached the top of the wall!
From the time when the wood was cut down to the time when the city wall was stormed, it was indeed less than a cup of tea, and the three hundred Da Zong tribe had not injured a single person until now. Seeing this situation, Cao Muyun, who was standing in the distance, couldn't help but have a thought.
Feeling like this, I secretly thought that these are the real warriors of Xionghuhu. If only 30% of the army could have such skills, the Ming Dynasty would not be in such a dangerous situation, both internally and externally.
Hua Bushi stared at the Dazhu tribe that was about to attack the city wall, but he had another thought in his mind: It is rare for Xiong Bailing to train such an elite war corps, which can allow disciples who have not practiced superior martial arts to fight.
If your strength reaches this level, I'm afraid it has reached its limit.
However, this eldest young master is also looking forward to the ability of the two hundred tiger-thorn warriors behind him. You must know that a war department composed of hundreds of disciples practicing superior martial arts, not only will the "Wanjin Hall" not have it, but even the seven major powers in the Central Plains will not have it.
The sect must not be able to have such a big hand.
The Xiong Zhi were really brave. In a hand-to-hand encounter, even the ferocious "Black Dragon Palace" pirates were no match. Soon more than ten people climbed up the city wall. Seeing that the pirates could no longer resist, the city wall was destroyed.
Captured by the Ozu tribe.
But at this moment, only a sharp laughter was heard, a purple shadow appeared on the city wall, and three giant men from the Da Zun tribe fell straight from the top of the wall without even humming.
Come down.
Although they were far apart, Cao Muyun and Hua Bushi were both sharp-sighted people, and they immediately saw clearly that the purple shadow was a person. The person was tall and tall, about seven feet tall, and wore a bun on his head.
He was wearing a golden crown, a purple robe, a dragon pattern embroidered on the chest, a high collar and big sleeves, which seemed to be the style of the imperial robes worn by the emperor. On his face, he wore a black and shiny mask in the shape of a dragon's head, which made it difficult to see.
Clear the true face.
Wherever the purple shadow went, the giant men of the Big Bear tribe fell down one by one, like scarecrows without the power to resist. In the blink of an eye, more than ten bear bears that had climbed up the wall were already gone.
Every one of them was beaten and fell down. The pirates on the city were greatly boosted in morale, shouting loudly: "Dragon King! Dragon King!" They all waved their weapons and occupied the top of the wall again.
Previously, when they rushed to the city wall and attacked the top of the wall, the giant men of the Dazhen tribe did not injure anyone. Unexpectedly, as soon as this purple-robed man appeared, he injured more than ten people with just a raise of his hands!
Could it be that this person is the famous Black Dragon King? Cao Muyun and Hua Bushi looked at each other, and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes. However, since this is the home of the "Black Dragon Palace", the appearance of the Black Dragon King here does not matter.
Not surprising.
A loud roar came from under the city wall: "Dazhenbu, attack!"
This roar was made by Xiong Bailing. The old man with white beard and gray beard came to the base of the wall in one step. Then he jumped up more than ten feet and kicked on a log on the stone wall. The log
With a "cluck" sound, it was almost crushed by a foot, but Xiong Bailing used his strength to rise more than ten feet and landed on the top of the wall.
The giant men of the Dazhu tribe were all brave men. When they saw the head of the family climbing up the wall, they all roared violently and desperately climbed up the city, where they were killed together with the pirates.
Xiong Bailing came to the top of the city, but ignored the pirates next to him. He had already spotted the purple-robed man's location and strode over. Several pirates tried to stop them, but they were blocked by his giant palm.
If you swing it, the bones will be broken and the tendons will be broken.
