Words:1946Update:22/10/19 18:36:29
Two commander-level generals were killed, and the remaining soldiers were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered under the suppression of Bai Xiaowen's mental force field.
Bai Xiaowen used up all his mental power to maintain the existence of the mental force field.
It turned out that his caution was very necessary.
There were two elite soldiers near the beacon tower, ready to light the beacon at any time! However, they were stunned and controlled by the mental force field, so they didn't succeed.
It was precisely because of this that Deputy General Zhou Ding wanted to rush over to light up the fire personally.
After the battle, Bai Xiaowen's face was a little pale. His mental power was completely exhausted.
Fortunately, with the double recovery of the Purple Ribbon Cloud Brocade Robe, it wouldn't take long for him to recover.
Bai Xiaowen didn't stop and ordered the winged cavalry to pass through Yanling Pass and head toward Xudu.
… …
Xudu was less than a hundred miles away from Yanling Pass.
When the winged cavalry arrived at Xudu and reached the city, it was dawn.
The five members of the White Phoenix team gathered together to discuss tactics.
"Shu Yi, I will use a mental shield to help you hide your aura. You sneak in and kill the gate guards. I will immediately summon creatures to help you open the gate! As long as the winged cavalry successfully enters the city, the few thousand old, weak, sick, and disabled left in Xudu will definitely not be able to stop us. "
Bai Xiaowen had fully experienced the combat power of the winged cavalry. They were definitely elite soldiers who could fight against ten.
What's more, Xudu currently had no reliable generals to defend the city. How could they resist the White Phoenix team?
"What worries me is the Divine Court training camp. They haven't shown up yet. Why? "Qiao Rui said.
The awakened ones were good at sneaking in and destroying things.
And those who could deal with the awakened ones were naturally the awakened ones.
If the awakened ones of the Divine Court assisted the defenders of Xudu, it was indeed very likely to thwart Bai Xiaowen's plan to enter the city.
Bai Xiaowen instead revealed a smile: "The process of breaking through Yanling Pass has already confirmed my guess. In this battle, we don't have to worry about the Divine Court training camp's restrictions. We can just sneak into the city according to the original plan. "
Bai Xiaowen made a few more arrangements and then started the operation.
The trees around Xudu were all cut down. This was also the normal operation of the generals who were skilled in defending the city in ancient times.
Leaving the forest outside the city would only do more harm than good!
The forest could allow the enemy to hide their tracks and reduce the threat of arrows.
The forest could be cut down by the attacking side and used to build siege weapons on the spot. This would save them the effort of transporting the weapons.
That's why there's a phrase called 'scorched earth'.
However, there were many military camps and farmlands around Xudu that could allow the winged cavalry to hide.
Farming was one of Cao Cao's initiatives. The purpose was to solve the problem of food. Because of the years of war, Cao Cao would often run out of food. For this reason, he had specially set up an agricultural commandant to supervise the farming of the farmland.
Now, there were very few soldiers in the fields, and most of them were transferred to the Guandu front line. Otherwise, the garrisoned troops in the countryside alone would be a strong force.
It was precisely because Xu Du was empty that Bai Xiaowen had the opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
The winged cavalry was currently hiding in the shadows of a farmhouse. Pairs of eyes were staring at Xu Du's northern gate.
Li Shuyi drank a bottle of Secondary Invisibility Potion. With the help of Bai Xiaowen's mental shield, she quietly arrived at the foot of Xu Du's tall city wall.
A light flashed under her feet. The second skill of the Cloud Ascending Boots was activated!
For 30 seconds, she could run in the air.
Under the surprised and envious gazes of the four members of the White Phoenix Squad, Li Shuyi jumped into the air like a martial arts expert. She ran up the city wall and reached the battlements in an instant. With a twist of her slender body, she disappeared behind the battlements.
"Success." Cecilia held her bow tightly.
However, in the next moment, a cannon sounded. Torches were raised on the originally dark city wall of Xudu!
A middle-aged Confucian wearing a red robe and a headscarf appeared on the city wall. He said loudly, "I've seen through the thief's plan. Take down this thief for me! "
The clanking of weapons sounded. It was obvious that Li Shuyi was in a fierce battle.
"Attack!"
Bai Xiaowen shouted sternly. The 800 winged cavalry roared and charged. At the same time, Bai Xiaowen used [Insight] and threw it to the middle-aged Confucian.
[Xun (Lord Level 9)]
[Race: Humanoid/Human]
[Profession: Heavenly Strategist]
[Attributes: Strength 40, Agility 40, Constitution 50, Spirit 160]
[Lord Skill: Royal Strategist: Passive. Xun has the talent of a royal strategist. When assisting the monarch as a strategist, it can increase all the monarch's attributes by 10 points.
Base Priority + 1 (Priority bonus does not stack with other similar effects)]
[Special Skill: Literary Celebrity: Passive. Xun does not have any additional general skills. In combat, Strength, Agility, Constitution, and HP will be reduced to 1/5 of their initial value. The force that kills Xun will have their diplomatic status with all other neutral forces drop by one level. If an Awakened participates in the killing, Xun will not drop any loot or treasure chest. If an Awakened participates in the killing, their reputation level with all forces will drop by one level.]
[Skill 1: Internal Affairs: Passive. When Xun holds an official position above the rank of a military strategist in a faction, all provinces, counties, and cities of the faction will have their grain taxes increased by an additional 30% every quarter. The livability of the faction will not be reduced.]
[Skill 2: Live and Work in Peace: Passive. When Xun holds an official position above the rank of a governor in a province, the cultivation speed of the province's farmland will increase by 30%. The livability of the province will automatically increase by one level.]
[Skill 3: Discerning Eyes: Passive. Xun is good at identifying talents. When personally recruiting talents, the probability of the other party being willing to work is greatly increased (affected by the monarch's reputation and charm)]
[Skill 4:???]
[Skill 5:???]
"Hiss … It's actually like this?"
Bai Xiaowen sucked in a breath of cold air. He forcibly resisted the urge to throw a spell talisman at Xun and shared the information that Xun had already detected with the team.
His teammates cursed in unison.
It was the first time they had seen a Lord that did not drop a treasure chest after killing one!
It was the first time they had seen a Lord that did not increase their reputation but instead decreased it!
Fortunately, Xun did not know that he had such a special passive skill that Awakened were afraid of. He also did not know that the general attacking the city in front of him was an Awakened! When he saw the "bandits" attacking the city, he quickly hid behind the soldiers.
Bai Xiaowen was slightly relieved. If Xun Lingjun did not have eyes, he could just kill him. Bai Xiaowen could still hold on even if his reputation dropped by one level!
Cecilia pointed her longbow, and the winged cavalry immediately rained down arrows.
On the city wall, Li Shuyi hurriedly jumped down from the battlements after receiving a gap in support. Agility-type Awakened were most afraid of being surrounded by an army in a narrow open space. How could they dodge when seven or eight swords were slashing at them at the same time?
"I'll break the door!"
