The city was breached! The city was breached!
Looking at the soldiers whose morale was greatly boosted, Li Yuan shook his head helplessly. Without thinking, he mounted the horse, pulled out his sword, raised it high, and shouted with his Internal Strength, "The city gate has been breached.
"The city gate is broken. My sons, follow me to kill the enemy!"
After shouting, he squeezed his legs and urged the white horse to rush forward. His personal guards didn't dare to be negligent and also rushed forward.
As for Wang She, he was still leaning on a tree, looking at Junior Leopard who was waving his twin hammers under the city gate. The smile on his face became wider. "Good boy, you have some ability. You actually broke the city gate open. Hehe!"
In fact, Li Yuan had originally given up the hope of breaking the city today because the followers of the Sect of Flame in the city were too tenacious. Moreover, it was obvious that they had made meticulous preparations in order to defend the city. Unexpectedly, when he was about to order the troops to retreat, the city gate of Zhonghe City was smashed open inexplicably.
This had a great impact on the morale of the soldiers.
The city gate was breached. Even though there were numerous obstacles in the city gate and the Sect of Flame followers who were fighting on the top of the city wall had the upper hand, the situation had changed.
It should be known that the Jin army had the absolute advantage in number. Previously, they had been struggling to break through the city gate. Now, a huge gap had been opened. The Jin army rushed to the city gate like tidewater. There were obstacles in the city gate, but they couldn't stop the Jin army who had a huge advantage in number. Suddenly, the situation became chaotic. When all the obstacles in the city gate were cleared, the outcome of the battle was decided.
"Good boy, you did a good job!" Junior Leopard raised his twin hammers and looked at the tidewater soldiers rushing past him. He was suddenly relieved. Suddenly, a green shadow flashed beside him, bringing a light breeze. He heard a sound of appreciation like a mosquito buzzing.
"Wang She?" Junior Leopard looked up and saw a green shadow flashing in front of the city wall. He had jumped directly into the city from the city wall.
"It was really good this time. I didn't expect that I could hit 17 Critical Hits under such circumstances. Although it was a little tiring, it was worth it!"
Junior Leopard didn't care about Wang She's disappearance. He was thinking about the process of breaching the city.
Critical Hit was the name he gave to the last few hammers. Because in the last dozen hammers, he used the Extraordinary Strength Fist.
The Extraordinary Strength Fist was marvelous. It could multiply one's attack power, but it was limited to one's fist and body. Just like the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, it could only be used in one's own body.
When he used the punching skill, he could apply his Extraordinary Strength Fist mental cultivation method to it. The destructive power of the fist could multiply, and it wouldn't consume too much Internal Qi. It wouldn't even cause too much burden to his own body.
Because of this benefit, Junior Leopard had always wanted to integrate this method into his hammering skill to multiply the power of his hammering skill. However, although the hammers were his handy weapons, they weren't part of his body. It was very difficult to apply the method of Extraordinary Strength Fist. Most of the time, the power could only be transmitted to his hand holding the hammers, but couldn't be transmitted to the hammers. There were even a few times when he was almost attacked by the power. However, he wasn't a person who gave up easily, and the benefits of doing this were too great. Therefore, after a long period of careful research, he finally found some tricks to apply the method of Extraordinary Strength Fist to his hammers. However, he couldn't use them as freely as he could with his fists. Not only was there a limit to the number of times of hammering, but also the size and weight of the hammers. The heavier the hammers were, the fewer times they could be used. Take Junior Leopard's hammers as an example. When his cultivation was at Level Two, he could increase the power of the hammers by nine times by using the Extraordinary Strength Fist. He would be exhausted after hammering 15 times at most. He called this hammering skill Critical Strike.
After his cultivation reached Level Three, he didn't try Critical Strike. He didn't expect that he would hit 19 times in a row when he used it for the first time today. The power of each hammer was at least 12 or 13 times stronger than when he didn't use Critical Strike. That was why he could smash open the iron gate that weighed more than 5,000 kilograms with 17 hammers.
"Actually, this was just an accident. I've never thought of opening the city gate by myself!" Junior Leopard stood there and panted for a while. Looking at the scene of the Jin army pouring into the city, he sighed in his heart.
"Junior Brother, you've made a fortune!" An excited and surprised voice rang in his ears. He turned around and saw Jin Nanqing and a few junior brothers looking at him with surprise. What made Junior Leopard uncomfortable was that the way they looked at him was different from before, especially Zhou Zhengming. In his eyes, there was not only surprise and jealousy, but also some flattery and uneasiness.
"Senior Brother, what's wrong?" Although Junior Leopard knew what Jin Nanqing was talking about, he still put on a puzzled look on his face!
"What else? Junior Leopard, you've made a fortune. It's you who broke into Zhonghe City. This time, you've made a great contribution!" Jin Nanqing patted Junior Leopard's shoulder fiercely. Looking at Junior Leopard's tongue-tied appearance, and then looking at the two silver hammers in his hands, he thought to himself, "Why was I so stupid that I didn't choose the iron hammers as my weapon? If I had made that choice, I might be the one who made a great contribution now."
His smile became more and more brilliant. As he spoke, he patted Junior Leopard's shoulder, and his voice was not very nimble. "Wrong, wrong. It's not a great merit, it's the chief merit, the chief merit, the chief merit, hehe, hehe …!"
Junior Leopard just smiled, looking like he didn't know what was going on.
"Senior Brother Jin, are we going to enter the city too?"
"Of course, we're going to enter!" Jin Nanqing waved his hand. "There must be some remnants of the Sect of Flame in the city. Junior Leopard has taken the first credit. What's the matter? We have to get some leftovers to drink. Junior Leopard, you won't fight with us, will you?"
Junior Leopard just giggled and nodded, "Senior Brother, I'll listen to you!"
The words "Senior Brother, I'll listen to you" had touched Jin Nanqing's heart. With a wave of his hand, he led the group of Wu's disciples into Zhonghe City with the crowd in high spirits.
Compared to the beginning, Zhonghe City was much more dilapidated.
It was no longer prosperous. Except for a few big mansions, the bigger mansions were all burned down. There were corpses on the roadside, some of which had been there for many days. The smell of rotting corpses, dirty blood, burning, and all kinds of strange smells permeated the city. When Junior Leopard, Jin Nanqing and the others entered the city, they couldn't help but cover their noses.
"Damn, this smell is really f * cking bad. I don't know how many people have died!"
"The Sect of Flame is cruel and bloodthirsty. If they attack the city, will there be any good consequences?" A Wu's disciple standing beside Jin Nanqing said. This person was called Wang Shouyi, an Inner Core disciple of the Wu's. His cultivation had just passed Level Two, and he was a companion who came with Junior Leopard to investigate the stolen goods. However, he was usually low-key and did not reveal himself. He always followed Jin Nanqing's lead, so he did not attract much attention.
But this time, when the Sect of Flame suddenly attacked, he was the one who was filled with righteous indignation. His attack was also the most ruthless. Facing the Sect of Flame, he showed no mercy. It was obvious that he had a deep relationship with the Sect of Flame.
"Yes, the Sect of Flame really went too far this time. They unexpectedly attacked Zhonghe City. This is the hinterland of the Great Jin. I don't know what they are thinking!" Zhou Zhengming said with deep feelings.
"What are they thinking? I think we will know very soon!" Jin Nanqing said. At this time, under the extremely superior military strength, the Sect of Flame in the city had been completely wiped out. Although there were a few experts of the Sect of Flame in the city, the strange thing was that these experts had disappeared. The highest cultivation was only around Level Three. Not to mention the army, even if they were surrounded by the people of the Military Camp, it would be difficult for them to rush out. All of them were captured without any room for resistance.
Although Jin Nanqing and the others wanted to make a contribution, seeing that the surrounding area was full of the Jin army, they had no chance to make a contribution. They had no choice but to give up.
Li Yuan led his personal guard army and entered the original Satrap Mansion of Zhonghe City.
The Satrap of Zhonghe City had been killed by the Sect of Flame when the city was attacked. Now that the city was recaptured, the Satrap Mansion was empty. Naturally, it became Li Yuan's commander's tent.
They won the battle and recaptured the city, but Li Yuan was not happy at all. Because Prince Xiaoming of the Sect of Flame and the experts who were supposed to be in the city had disappeared. What did this mean?
This meant that their purpose of attacking Zhonghe City had been achieved. Since their purpose had been achieved, they would naturally evacuate. There was no need to occupy such a city that had no strategic significance. If that was the case, even if he had recaptured Zhonghe City, it would be a waste of effort. An army of 100,000 had besieged the city for nearly 20 days, yet they had only taken down a city with less than 10% of the defenders. Moreover, they had let all the people in charge escape. This was unjustifiable no matter what.
However, this kind of thing naturally couldn't be said out loud. No matter what, after several bloody battles, this city had been seized back, and he had to give his brothers an explanation. Therefore, those who should be rewarded should be rewarded, and those who should be punished should be punished. However, General Li was in a bad mood now, and those who should be punished would really be out of luck.
"You are Junior Leopard?!"
At this moment, someone had already led Junior Leopard, Jin Nanqing and the others into the Guard County Mansion. Today, Junior Leopard bravely climbed the city gate and smashed it open. Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers had seen it with their own eyes. He could not run away. Now, if they were to be rewarded according to their merits, naturally, he would be the first to be rewarded. As for Jin Nanqing and the others, although they did not have such outstanding merits as Junior Leopard, today's bloody battle at the top of the city gate and bravely killing the enemy was something that everyone could see. In addition, they were Junior Leopard's senior and junior brothers. Naturally, they would not be left out of the benefits.
"You are Junior Leopard, a disciple of the Wu Family?!"
Sitting on the big chair of the Guard County Mansion, Li Yuan asked in a low voice.
"Yes!" On such an occasion, Junior Leopard did not dare to say more.
"Good, good, good!" Li Yuan said "good" three times in a row. His eyes were full of splendor. "You are indeed a young hero. You have made a great contribution today. Tell me, what kind of reward do you want?!"
This question made Junior Leopard puzzled. He scolded in his heart, "If you want to give me benefits, just give them directly. Why are you asking? How would I know what kind of benefits I want?!"
