Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Night falls in Songzhou City.

The Tibetan army has completely surrounded the city. They are arrayed neatly and densely. Their armor reflects the moonlight and is full of murderous intent.

They all shouted that Xue Rengui was dead and asked the Tang people to quickly open the city and surrender.

The soldiers on the city wall were so nervous that they could only swallow their saliva, their eyes full of anxiety.

There are only [-] defenders in the city, but the Tibetan army outside the city is no less than [-], ten times their own strength. Can they really hold on?
It will be the courage of all the armies.

If Xue Rengui can appear to lead them, then even if they are short of troops, they will dare to fight to the death, because as long as Xue Rengui is there, they can see the hope of victory.

but now……

Thinking of the figure falling from the city wall, Tang Bing felt uneasy.

"kill!!!"

The Tubo army attacked, as mighty as a tidal wave.

The sound of arrows piercing the air suddenly sounded on the battlefield, and they were densely packed, like locusts passing through.

There were endless sounds of killings and screams, and the originally peaceful Songzhou City instantly turned into a hell on earth, filled with blood and corpses.

Under the command of Qin Ling, the Tibetan soldiers were well-organized and advanced slowly, like a mountain falling, and it was unstoppable.

The city wall was already covered with ladders, and in less than an hour, Tibetan soldiers climbed up the city wall.

The city gate was even distorted and crumbling by the giant wood.

It was only then that Qin Ling was finally sure that Xue Rengui was really dead.

He breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved, but at the same time, he was not happy at all, and even felt a deep sense of frustration.

It is actually a huge regret not being able to compete with this world-famous general.

There are too few outstanding opponents like Xue Rengui.

boom!
With the continuous collision of giant trees, the Songzhou City Gate finally collapsed, and the Tang troops behind the gate were also knocked away. Turkic soldiers filed in and killed the Tang troops.

Songzhou City was about to be lost.

But at this moment, a sound broke through the air, roaring like thunder, sending hundreds of feet of cloud smoke up, and rolling up all the fallen leaves on the ground. It was unparalleled in power.

It was an arrow, a divine arrow shot from the Sky-shaking Bow.

Whoosh!
The arrows went straight forward, piercing through more than a dozen soldiers and creating a vacuum.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The arrows kept coming, each arrow was like wind and clouds, with the power to swallow thousands of miles, piercing the bodies of countless Tubo soldiers, and even nailing people to the city wall!
In a few breaths, the Tubo soldiers who entered Songzhou City were wiped out.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a man and a horse stepped over the piles of corpses and walked to the city gate.

He was wearing a white robe with silver armor, and under his crotch was an extremely powerful white jade horse. He was holding a sky-shaking bow and carrying a Fangtian painted halberd on his back. He was a brave warrior and majestic.

"Xue Rengui is here!"

He roared angrily, his voice shaking the sky. Although he sounded old, he was filled with great pride and looked down upon all the heroes in the world.

As soon as these words came out, the Tubo soldiers were all shocked.

Didn’t the general say that Xue Rengui was dead?

Xue Rengui's reputation is like thunder, especially his archery skills, which are unparalleled in the world. The legends of the general's three arrows reaching the Tianshan Mountains and the strong man's long song at Han Pass have been adapted into dramas and widely circulated.

The Pioneer General of Tubo loudly said: "Don't be deceived by this old man. Xue Rengui is dead. He is definitely a fake!"

Xue Rengui said nothing, just sneered, bent his bow and shot an arrow.

Whoosh!
The arrows are like shooting stars. The Sky-shattering Bow is a magic weapon sent to him by the Imperial Master. The arrows are also forged with black iron. Coupled with his natural divine power, the power of an arrow is really like a comet hitting the sun, indestructible!

The Tubo vanguard general was extremely careful. When Xue Rengui was bending his bow, he hid behind other soldiers. However, he didn't want the arrow to break through the air, and directly penetrated several soldiers, and then an arrow penetrated him. 's head.

The cold arrows were stained with white brains.

The Tubo soldiers were all terrified.

At this time, a loud laugh rang out, so heroic that it filled my heart.

I saw Xue Rengui taking off his general's helmet, his white hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes seemed to be burning with blazing flames, and he had an intimidating power. As he looked around, he was filled with the spirit of a warrior and an iron horse.

"I'm Xue Rengui, how are you? Have you seen it clearly?"

As he spoke, he bent his bow and nocked an arrow again.

"Xue Rengui, it's really Xue Rengui!"

"Xue Rengui is not dead!"

There was a commotion among the Tibetan soldiers, their morale was shattered, and their fighting spirit plummeted.

The Tang army cheered loudly. Looking at the white-haired veteran, infinite power seemed to burst out of their bodies, and they drove back the enemy troops who had climbed onto the city wall.

Seeing that the formation of the Tibetan army became chaotic, how could Xue Rengui, who had been fighting for a lifetime, let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

He put away his bow and arrows, held a 78-pound Fangtian painted halberd, tightened the reins, and charged directly towards the Tubo army formation.

"Young Master of the Tang Dynasty, follow me and charge to kill the enemy!"

"We, the soldiers, are the Great Wall of the Tang Dynasty!"

"kill!!!"

Bai Yuju neighed, and the iron hoofs stirred up dust and smoke.

Tang Jun looked at the immortal veteran with white hair, his cape fluttering like a handsome flag, and his unspeakable heroic spirit.

An indescribable feeling reverberated in their hearts, and the man's blood spurted out like a volcano.

At this moment, they had long forgotten the disparity in strength between the enemy and ours, the longing for their families, and the fear of death.

The sound of iron hooves moved, and the mountains and rivers trembled.

Countless cavalrymen fought out of the city, risking their lives, leaping on their horses and crossing their swords. The moonlight illuminated a pair of faces that were either young or old, but their eyes were equally bright and fearless.

At this moment, they once again became the invincible black armored cavalry who had conquered the world with Taizong.

Six thousand men went to die together, reaching the enemy camp without asking for anything in return.

At this moment, the morale of the Tang army rose to the extreme. There was a commotion among the Tubo frontline troops. Many people retreated and the battle formation tended to collapse.

In an instant, Xue Rengui was already approaching with his halberd. He was not only a marksman with perfect shots, but also a peerless general who could take the head of an admiral from thousands of troops. His martial arts skills were at their peak. Even though his physical fitness declined with age, he still Still unstoppable.

The halberd danced like a strong wind roaring against a jade tree, and every blow was like thunder. In just a few breaths, countless Tibetan soldiers died under his halberd.

And as the Tang army's cavalry charged in, it was like a sharp blade that pierced the Tubo army formation, and there were corpses of enemy soldiers under their iron hooves.

Seeing that the Tibetan army was about to be defeated, Qinling made a decisive decision and passed the news to the central army. Those who retreated were killed, and then he barely stabilized the army.

He looked at Xue Rengui, who was killing him, with a hint of brilliance in his eyes, and the blood in his body was boiling.

At this moment, the eyes of the two world-famous generals collided, and they clashed like halberds and broadswords, engaging in an invisible confrontation.

Qin Ling picked up his long sword and mounted his war horse. His heroic eyes were full of fighting spirit and he laughed loudly, showing great courage.

"Xue Rengui, the head of Qinling is here, waiting for you to pick it up!"

Want to take the head of a general among thousands of armies?

Okay, then I will grant it to you, but I also want to see if you have the life to take it.

Ordinary generals would have been frightened and fled at this moment, but Qin Ling, as a famous general, not only did not escape, but instead stood up and waited for work.

He didn't believe that the 78-year-old Xue Rengui still had the strength to chop off his head after passing through many military formations?
He is in his prime, has good martial arts skills, and is brave enough to charge into battle. How can he be afraid of a gray-haired veteran?When Xue Rengui saw that he was not escaping, he even looked up to the sky and smiled. He raised his halberd and came to kill him without hesitation. He stared at Qin Ling and vowed to kill the Tubo military god who threatened the Tang Dynasty!

But at this moment, thunder and thunder struck, and meteorites and fire fell from the sky, accurately falling towards the Tang army.

The python swallows the dragon!
With the emergence of Xue Rengui, the importance of this battle in Songzhou has soared, and it will even determine the general situation of the two countries. Tubo has a sense of destiny and arouses the help of celestial phenomena.

The morale of the Tang army, which had just climbed to its peak, suddenly suffered a huge blow.

Is it true that heaven helps Tibet but not Tang?
Has Datang... been abandoned by God?
Some people closed their eyes in despair. After a few breaths, they found that there was no natural disaster around them. They opened their eyes and saw a scene they would never forget.

One hand, a big hand that covers the sky, is as long as jade, has clear texture, and seems to be thousands of miles huge, helping them block countless catastrophes.

Meteors fell, sky fire burned, and thunder struck, but the giant hand still shone with golden light and remained unscathed.

Xue Rengui laughed loudly with great joy.

"My sons, the National Preceptor is watching us from the top of the clouds. What a bullshit natural disaster. With the Imperial Preceptor here, we can just kill the enemy without any worries!"

The soldiers looked around and saw a figure in white standing faintly above the clouds, like an immortal king coming to earth, holding the sky with one hand.

God didn't help Tang, so he covered that day!

In an instant, a huge sense of glory went straight to Tianling.

As a Tang Dynasty person, who has never heard of the legend of the Imperial Master?
Who hasn’t fantasized about being born decades too early, following the national master like General Xue to conquer the world and create a prosperous and prosperous age?
Now this fantasy has actually come true.

This battle is destined to go down in history and be praised throughout the ages!

In an instant, the already strong morale surged again, like a raging fire cooking oil. Everyone seemed to have endless power in their bodies, and their fighting potential was even greater than before.

I don't know how long it took, but there were fewer and fewer Tang troops behind Xue Rengui, and more and more injuries on his body. Even Bai Yuju had several scars, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

But his eyes grew brighter.

Because he finally reached Qin Ling.

"What a mighty teacher, what a Xue Rengui!"

At this moment, even though he was an enemy, Qin Ling felt a sense of admiration in his heart. He was so brave at the age of 78. He was worthy of Xue Rengui.

He knew that the greatest respect for the enemy at this moment was to fight head-on without forcing him to retreat.

Qin Ling also led his troops to kill Xue Rengui.

Behind him are the Dragon Fish Guards that he carefully trained. Tubo regards Namtso Lake as a holy lake and the Dragon Fish in the lake as the lake god. It can be seen that he named this cavalry the Dragon Fish Guards and placed his trust in them. What a hope.

These people are all elite soldiers, and together they are an indestructible sword.

Now this Dragon Fish Guard ran into the Tang Dynasty's Black Armor Soldiers.

The two armies faced each other and charged, and their swords and swords were bloody. It was like a huge wave colliding with a torrent, causing a huge wave.

As the horses criss-crossed each other, Xue Rengui and Qin Ling had already exchanged blows with each other. Sparks were flying and every move was deadly, extremely ruthless.

They admire each other, but they also want to kill each other.

Xue Rengui rushed to kill, leaving only less than a hundred riders of the Tang army behind him, and everyone was injured. Even he himself was stained with blood on his shirt.

Qinling's Dragon Fish Guards still have hundreds of riders.

But Xue Rengui was not afraid. He pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and charged towards Qinling again. He was still leading the way, with his white hair dancing wildly.

The Tang army was like a silent torrent of steel, following their generals who continued to charge like the wings of an arrow.

Qin Ling didn't say anything. He had to fight, he had to fight!
The narrow road meets the brave to win!

After the second charge, the Tang army only had a few dozen cavalry left, while the Longyu Guards had only a hundred cavalry left. Even Qin Ling himself was injured, with a scar on his armor caused by Xue Rengui's Fang Tian Hua Ji.

Qin Ling's expression became more solemn.

Xue Rengui pulled the reins again, without any words, charging, continuing to charge!
But if there is still a breath left, the charge will not stop!
After the third charge, the Tang army only had ten cavalry left, while Qinling's Longyu Guards still had sixteen cavalry. They looked at the Tang army with fear in their eyes, and their determination for victory began to waver.

Can he really defeat such a terrifying army?
Xue Rengui did not hesitate and continued to charge!

He was already very tired. Every time he waved Fang Tian's painted halberd, he had to gasp for air. Even Bai Yuju, who could travel thousands of miles in a day, had reached his limit.

But he knew he couldn't stop.

A general should die in a hundred battles, how could he live on his death bed?
In the fourth charge, the Tang army had three cavalry left, but the Dragon Fish Guard had been completely wiped out.

Xue Rengui gasped for breath, Fang Tian's painted halberd trembled in his hand. He stared at Qin Ling and launched the last charge.

Qin Ling finally showed fear. He took out his bow and arrow and aimed at Xue Rengui.

Whoosh!
The long arrow shot through the air, penetrated Xue Rengui's armor, and pierced his abdomen, causing blood to splash.

However, Xue Rengui turned a deaf ear and rode his horse to a few feet in front of Qin Ling. He gathered his last strength and threw the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand at him.

At this time, Qin Ling's second arrow also arrived, shooting into his exhausted heart. Although protected by the heart mirror, the arrow still missed three inches.

Xue Rengui fell off his horse.

As for Qin Ling, Fang Tian's painted halberd pierced his right chest and was nailed to the ground.

The two famous generals in the world seemed to have died together in the end.

However, Xue Rengui quickly stood up. He walked to Qin Ling step by step, looking at his tenacious eyes with a look of respect.

This is an admirable enemy.

Qin Ling suddenly calmed down.

"I lost...it was worth dying in your hands..."

"Send me...the last journey..."

He didn't want to die in pain and struggle.

"it is good."

Xue Rengui's voice was low. He took off the Sky-shattering Bow from his back, but the arrows were already empty, so he directly pulled out the arrow that had been shot into his heart, bent the bow and nocked the arrow, and aimed at Qin Ling's eyebrows.

He was no longer able to fully draw the bow, and all his strength was spent just half-opening it.

As the arrow was shot, the famous Tubo general who had not appeared for a century died on the battlefield.

Xue Rengui raised the sky-shattering bow in his hand, looked up to the sky and roared, his white hair fluttering, like the White Tiger Star Lord descending to earth, shaking the world.

After three breaths, the white hair gradually fell.

He took one last look at the white clothes in the sky and smiled.

Before I die, I have no regrets about being able to fight side by side with the Imperial Master again!
His consciousness gradually blurred, and in a trance, he seemed to have returned to 42 years ago, the second day after the wedding of the national master.

Before he said goodbye to Longhu Mountain, the Imperial Master gave him a poem, a poem that he couldn't put down and recited all the year round.

"I heard that a long siege of tens of thousands was built, and the general and his horse marched alone.

The snow-clearing soldiers in Tianshan are still fighting, and the crow tent in Qinghai is empty.

Tears of worship flow on the autumn grass, bow strings are bent and broken in the sunset. "

What he liked the most was the last sentence, which was so well written.

"For a man who wants to repay his country's kindness, it is a good death to die on the battlefield."
