Born short-lived

The boulder that was burning all over rolled and whizzed down, and those spirit ghosts who couldn't dodge it were smashed down with crackles.Fire oil had been poured on the basement of the city wall long ago, and after dozens of flints rolled down, a raging fire was ignited again, and the whole city was filled with the strange smell of scorched spirits and ghosts.

But the ghost spirits seemed to be unable to see the fire, they still rushed upwards suddenly, and some crawled fast and rushed out of the sea of ​​flames just like that.

After the last boulder fell down, the first spirit ghost that broke through the defense line also rushed up the city wall.

The spirit ghost caused fire to burn half of its body, opened its bloody mouth like a dying struggle, and suddenly flew up, biting a soldier's neck tightly.

The person next to him was startled, and hurriedly drew his sword to chop.The spirit ghost was stabbed in the neck, split in two in an instant, and turned into a puddle of powder.

But the bitten soldier actually let the spirit ghost completely bite off his neck, lying on the ground with his head in a different place, his eyes were still wide open when he died, and the extreme fear at the moment before his death was condensed on him. There was a lot of blood in his eyes.

Immediately after the second, third, fourth...

The defenders on the city wall were almost unable to move their hands and feet because of the spirit ghost, and the black banner man under the city wall began to attack the city gate.

Dong Sheng activated the Sword Spirit of the Reborn, drew a fierce sword wind with his backhand, swept away wrapped in blue aura, and knocked off a group of spirit ghosts that had just rushed up with one sword.

"Clouds!"

Yun Xiao understood, borrowed the wind from the epee in his hand, and spun his backhand, the flash of spiritual light quickly merged into a powerful storm.

Ruoshui hurriedly took the opportunity to throw a whip into the iron barrel containing kerosene, and suddenly threw a stream of kerosene into the small storm that was about to come out.

Yun Xiao's sword wind, wrapped in oil droplets, charged towards the army of spirit ghosts, engulfing dozens of spirit ghosts and overturning the city wall together. The "kerosene wind" rolled to the ground, and the flames rose instantly, and the black bannermen who were about to break through the city were forced back a little.

After several fights, the army of tens of thousands of spirit ghosts was forced to stop on the city wall.After patrolling for a while, the Black Banner men and the southern Xinjiang rebels under the city wall actually began to retreat a little.

Dong Sheng felt that something was wrong, and looked into the distance, his heart sank suddenly, and he shouted decisively: "Withdraw!! Get down! Get down..."

Before he could finish shouting, a huge ball of blue light slammed heavily on the fragile city wall, and half of it collapsed in an instant. The soldiers stationed there just now were blasted to the bone.

There is no gunpowder smoke, but it is extremely powerful - this is Hua Xu's latest psionic cannon.

Dong Sheng still remembered that when this type of psychic cannon was first shipped to the East China Sea, the entire East China Sea defenders were going crazy with joy.But he never imagined that the first time he saw the power of this psychic cannon was to let someone hit him.

The defenders on the city wall were frightened and dumbfounded immediately, but in the blink of an eye, guns rained down like rain.

Zhou Zirong's boat stopped on the Nanfang Islands. The Nanfang Islands were originally a place of Taoyuan, but unfortunately, the supplies were too scarce. Several generations of people lived on the mountains, but now they had no choice but to go out to make a living again.

At first, a group of people from Huaxu traveled across the ocean to come here to take root. The location of the sea route here is superior, and it has gradually become a transit point for sea trade routes. With the support of this group of Huaxu people, they have gradually become rich.

The Nanfang Islands generally dock at their harbors by default, not only Huaxu's merchant ships, but also naval ships.

"What's the situation?" Zhou Zirong asked, looking at the scout who had just rushed in in a hurry.

"According to reports from spies, a large number of naval ships were found on the western ocean."

"What did you say?" Zhou Zirong's face suddenly changed, "Which country?"

Scout; "Yes...it belongs to Daling..."

I'm really afraid of what's coming.

"It's unreasonable!" Jiang Huai slapped the table with a slap, "These barbarians...what do they want?!"

The Heiqi people have been doing the same thing for decades, but this time they suddenly pushed Silan to this point, and even turned against the people from southern Xinjiang. If there is no one behind this, even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

Now if they rashly send troops to Sri Lanka to support them, the Daling navy patrolling behind them can immediately find a reason, and unite with the rebels on the land of Sri Lanka to encircle them by sea and land.

At that time, let alone the siege of Silan, I am afraid that even their [-] elites from the East China Sea will have to pay for it.

Seeing that the faces of the two adults were extremely dark, the scout added cautiously; "Also... Also, this is an urgent order sent by His Majesty's spirit bird."

Zhou Zirong's expression tightened, and he took the edict, which was sealed with wax, and it really had the seal of Xuantian Rising Sun on it.

Zhou Zirong raised his eyes and said, "Go down first."

Jiang Huaikong watched the scout exit the cabin, then squeezed impatiently to Zhou Zirong's side; "What did it say?"

Zhou Zirong tore off the sealing seal, and spread out the edict, only to see that there were only a few words on it - "Send troops quickly, without hesitation."

And at the bottom of this letter, there is actually a small black jade bead stuck with wax paint.

Zhou Zirong panicked, and suddenly fell into an ice cave.

Is it...

Seeing his expression of seeing a ghost, Jiang Huaikong pushed him: "What's wrong? Hurry up! You... are you choking?"

Zhou Zirong didn't raise his head, his eyes were bloodshot: "2 people stay, and the remaining [-] people pack up and set off immediately."

Jiang Huaikong didn't react for a while, but the man had already flung his sleeves and rushed out.

Luo Chi, who was standing at the door and didn't know what was going on, was taken aback by Zhou Zirong who rushed out suddenly. It was the first time he saw Zhou Zirong's face so scary, and he thought to himself, could it be that his wife ran away with someone?

Jiang Huaikong followed closely behind, and Luo Chi hurriedly stopped him; "Jiang...Master Jiang, what's wrong?"

Jiang Huaikong was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and impatiently said: "We are ready to fight." Then he hurriedly ran to the Lingwu cabin.

Originally, Dong Sheng had already prepared for the city to be destroyed the next day, but he never expected that he would survive for two days and two nights.

The city wall was riddled with psychic cannonballs, and there were piles of corpses beneath it. Three thousand dead men died and only a few dozen people remained, and half of the city gates were stained red with blood.

Just when everyone thought it was really going to be impossible to defend, there were shocking explosions in the distance, and the enemy's offensive suddenly stopped.

The Black Banner people and the Nanjiang people did not expect that those spiritual cannonballs that were several times more powerful than the latest spiritual cannons in their hands would inexplicably fall from the sky, blowing up their rear by surprise.

The coalition forces in front were either advancing or retreating, and lost tens of thousands of people in just a few hours, so they had to retreat southward in a hurry without knowing why.Unexpectedly, the [-] Huaxu army landed immediately after, driving the allied army back beyond the Lan River.

Before Zhou Zirong came to Nanyang, he asked Jiang Huaikong to equip his latest batch of long-range psionic cannons. Unexpectedly, they were actually used, and the power was much better than they expected.

The troops of the Black Banners and those from the southern border were in a state of confusion, and rumors spread everywhere in the army. Some people even thought that such a rebellious act was really punished by God.

Aka of the black flag was so angry that he hacked dozens of times before suppressing the gossip a little bit.

After the [-] troops forced the coalition forces to retreat, they did not continue to chase. Zhou Zirong impatiently took people to the capital city of Dima to rescue the scene. When he saw the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, his heart sank a lot.

After entering the city gate, I heard that an envoy of Hua Xu desperately helped Silan defend the capital. The man held a long bronze sword with amazing spiritual power, but he couldn't find it after the war.

Zhou Zirong's eyes were red with anxiety, and he led a team of people to search day and night, and finally dug Dong Sheng out from under the ruins after the city wall collapsed before he was suffocated to death.
