"Bang!"
The huge Torch Rock landed on the city wall, crushing the corpses of the soldiers and leaving behind a trail of blood. Screams of agony could be heard as more than ten soldiers were buried in the sea of fire.
Below Ling Han City, the sound of springs could be heard. The Blackmarket Empire's siege weapons were brutal and effective. The entire Ling Han City's city wall was almost turned into a sea of fire.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
The mushroom cloud from the Magic Crystal Cannons bloomed on the ground, but it was getting smaller and smaller. A giant dragon flew above the city, and a Dragon Knight's sharp sword disintegrated a heavy cannon.
"Protect the Magic Crystal Cannons! Protect the Magic Crystal Cannons! "
A Captaincy with a face full of scars shouted. He pulled his bow and sent an arrow into the chest of an enemy below the city wall. He took a few quick steps and shouted to the people in the city, "Quick, there are too many wounded soldiers on the city wall. We need people to bring them to receive treatment. Also, we need a lot of Nightmare Rocks and rolling logs! Elders of Ling Han City, as long as we are united, we will definitely be able to protect our home! "
The people in the city were furious. Many young people were already shouting, "We want to join the army!" But a dragon's roar swept across the sky, and a long dragon flame attack engulfed the streets of the city. In an instant, the densely packed people were turned into ashes. Their limbs were twisted from the heat, and their bodies emitted a burnt smell.
"Ah …"
Captaincy was slightly stunned. He looked up at the Dragon Knight in the sky and roared, "B * stard! B * stard! "
"Pfft!"
A spear pierced through his chest from behind. The Dragon Knight circling the edge of the city wall revealed a sinister smile. "You dare to be distracted in such an intense battle? You're asking for death!"
…
Just like this, the Magic Crystal Cannons on the city that they relied on to go against their enemies were destroyed one by one, and it was equivalent to losing their final resistance. It was utterly impossible to resist the Darkstone Empire's Dragon Knights by relying on ordinary swords and sabers. Not to mention the Dragon Knights of the Tianji Empire were flying in the sky as well.
"Roar!"
The giant dragon's head slowly twisted and spewed flames into the city's Sacred Palace. A group of cultivators who were moving weapons and Magic Crystal Cannons were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.
"Hmph …" The Dragon Rider on the dragon's back grunted coldly and said, "Lord Gong Yangjin, as members of the Heavenly Dawn Dragonriders, why should we help this group of barbarians from the Darkstone Empire to attack the city? Our army is fighting in the northern Heavenspan Province, and here we are, helping our enemies? Humph, what a joke. "
Ram Jin raised his spear and stood on the dragon's back. "Don't complain. This is Battle Angel Dora's order. Don't forget what His Majesty told us. We have to listen to Lady Dora, and we have to follow her orders until the war ends. At that time, we can return to the Tianji Dragon Riders and serve His Majesty and the Marshal."
"Yes!"
"How many Shattered Cauldron Realm soldiers are left in Ling Han City?"
"Less than ten thousand, I think? The southern barbarians of the Blackstone Empire are really powerful. They used close to two hundred thousand people to besiege Ling Han City. That Yao Yuan should have surrendered long ago, but he led a few tens of thousands of people to fight like a cornered beast. It's a pity that these tens of thousands of lives have been wasted. "
"Is that so?"
Ram Jin's eyes were cold. "If Yao Yuan really surrendered like the soldiers of the other cities, then I'm starting to look down on the Shattered Cauldron Realm army. From the looks of it, they're not bad. Although they're weak, their fighting spirit is still there."
"Yes …"
…
Below the city, a black flag fluttered in the wind amidst the lingering smoke. The Blackstone Empire army's main tent was set up three miles away from the city, just out of the range of the enemy's Magic Crystal Cannons.
In front of the tent, there was a spectator stand about three meters tall, and on it stood a few people dressed in general's armor. One of them was Fu Yu, the commander of the Ashen Flame Army, and also the commander of this attack on Ling Han City.
However, at this moment, the arrogant Fu Yu actually had a respectful expression as he stood with his hands by his side behind a middle-aged expert. The middle-aged expert wore a golden cloak. He was the Darkstone Empire's Marshal, one of the Saint Martial Gods that was renowned for being bloodthirsty and cruel, Baili Qin!
"Commander Fu Yu, you've already lost close to thirty thousand people to attack a mere Ling Han City. I heard that there are only forty to fifty thousand soldiers in this city." Baili Qin's voice was very calm, but it was filled with killing intent.
Fu Yu hurriedly knelt on one knee and said, "Marshal is right. I'm useless. However, the Qin Empire's Magic Crystal Cannons are really powerful. Most of our soldiers died to the power of the Magic Crystal Cannons."
"Hmph!" Baili Qin laughed coldly. "If it wasn't for the help of the Black Rock Dragon Cavalry, I really doubt that you could take down Ling Han City."
Fu Yu's face was covered in beads of sweat. He said, "Marshal, I know I was wrong."
"Is that so?"
Baili Qin lazily looked at the blazing sun in the sky and said, "By noon, I want to see the east gate fall. I want to see the head of General Yao Yuan. Otherwise, you can give your position to the Vice General!"
"Yes, I will definitely do it! Men, prepare a horse! "
Fu Yu raised his long blade and leaped onto the back of a horse, personally supervising the battle.
Just as Fu Yu was nearing the city gate, a flurry of arrows rained down from the top of the city walls. "Pi Pi Pa Pa" sounds rang out as they collided with his God Power Astral Shield, causing Fu Yu to feel a dull pain. Looking up, he saw a group of elite archers. They were the elite archers under Yao Yuan's command, the elite archers of the elite archers. They could draw their bows and use white diamond arrows. Their killing power was astonishing. It was also the elite archers that prevented the Blue Flame Army and even the Dragon Knights from approaching the east gate tower.
"Bastard!"
Fu Yu roared angrily. He raised his long blade and slashed out a blazing aura!
However, a general on the city wall raised his longsword. With a "weng" sound, the power of Heaven and Earth surged, and an extremely strong frost wall appeared above the city wall. With a "peng" sound, Fu Yu's all-out attack was actually ineffective!
"Heavenly Book!?"
Fu Yu sneered, "The people from the Shattered Cauldron Realm are indeed related to the Thunder Blaze Sect and the Heavenly Book Sect. They are actually good at inscribing Heavenly Books. How hateful!"
The Vice General behind him said, "Commander, that old fellow Yao Yuan is on the east gate tower."
"Cover me. I will go and chop off his head."
"Yes!"
Fu Yu raised his battle blade and flew up. His God Power pulsed, and flames engulfed his body. He roared and rushed to the top of the city gate tower. However, the city gate tower was filled with the archers of the elite archers. White diamond arrows flew out and hit Fu Yu's God Power Astral Shield. At the same time, the surroundings were filled with Zhong Yan energy. Fu Yu knew that it was disrupting his God Power. Naturally, he did not want to shatter the void.
"Peng!"
Just as Fu Yu's head appeared, a Magic Crystal Crossbow exploded.
"Ah …"
Amidst the miserable howl, this commander who had underestimated his enemy was blown to the ground. A group of soldiers holding spears rushed forward, afraid that he would be blown to death.
"He is still not dead?!"
On the city gate tower, Yao Yuan was wearing a white Imperial Forest Armor. His face was ashen as he said, "Continue like this. Elite Bow Camp and Iron Shield Camp, hold on. As long as we defend the city gate tower, we will be able to wait for reinforcements. Marquis Cangnan, Xu Jiantao, is already on the way with fifty thousand elites. As long as Xu Jiantao, one of the Three Tiger Generals of the Valiant Dragon Army, arrives, the Blackstone Empire's army will be unstoppable!"
Everyone said in unison, "Yes, Marquis!"
Xu Jiantao and Yao Yuan were both part of the Five Marquises of the Empire. At this time, for Yao Yuan, Xu Jiantao was the only savior. The Three Tiger Generals of the Longdan Army Camp were Wei Chou, Situ Sen, and Xu Jiantao. In the past few years, Wei Chou and Situ Sen had joined hands to exterminate the Demon Race, proving their military talent. Now, only Xu Jiantao had the title of Tiger General but had not made any achievements. However, no one would doubt Xu Jiantao's commanding ability. After all, none of the generals brought up by Lin Muyu, one of the Four Heroes of Lanyan, were easy to deal with!
Lin Muyu dared to let Xu Jiantao guard the entire Cangnan Province, which was enough to prove that Xu Jiantao could take charge of an area on his own.
The sound of arrows being released could be heard incessantly. Although the roars of the dragons on the city wall did not stop, the city gate was still very strong. On the contrary, the guards began to use the dexterous magic crystal crossbows to fight at close range. The army of the Qin Empire actually gained the upper hand. They repelled the attacks of the strong enemies again and again, giving everyone a glimmer of hope to defend the city.
In the air, the ballistae exploded. Thick and long white arrows shot into the abdomen of the dragons, injuring many dragon knights.
Yao Yuan stood at the edge of the small window and looked at the decreasing number of dragon knights on the city wall. A trace of relief appeared on his face. It seemed that hope had come. The Cangyan Army had suffered serious losses. After a while, they should retreat. After all, in a siege, once more than a quarter of the army was lost, the commanding general should consider giving up. This was common sense, unless the commanding general was crazy and wanted to exchange the whole army for a city.
"Marquis, we're going to win!" an adviser of the Inner Mansion said excitedly.
"Yes, they will not be able to hold on for much longer."
Yao Yuan also smiled.
But at this moment, there was a sudden violent explosion in the air. The entire east tower was shaking. Wood chips, bricks, and tiles fell from the sky. A monstrous divine power came from the sky with the pressure of Mount Tai.
"Guards, protect the Marquis!"
A group of guards with swords in their hands stepped forward. But the one who came was a god with a golden shield — Luo Fei!
"Boom!"
The powerful shield strike shattered the group of guards into powder. Luo Fei had a cruel smile on his face. Suddenly, he turned around and a woman with a long spear stabbed at him.
Dora!
"It's you?!" Yao Yuan growled.
"Yes, it's me. I'm here to take your life. It's Xiyin's order!"
Dora giggled. It was such a beautiful smile, but it looked like the fangs of the devil.
Dugus stabbed forward with his spear. A dense divine power surrounded the surroundings, immobilizing Yao Yuan. When the spear pierced through Yao Yuan's heart, Dora rushed over before Yao Yuan died. An exquisite dagger appeared in her hand.
The Dagger of Time.
Once the Dagger of Time appeared, time seemed to stop. Yao Yuan could even clearly hear the sound of the dagger cutting his throat.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurted out. A pair of black light wings opened behind Dora. She raised Yao Yuan's head high and shouted, "Yao Yuan is dead. Do you still want to resist?"
…
Yao Yuan had died in battle!
Now, there was one less white-robed imperial forest in Ze Tian Palace!
