Volume 10 Chapter 404
Chapter 404
The sword disappeared, and the blood appeared. Read the full text. The two halves of the body exploded into a crimson blood mist in the air.
Without even looking at the two halves of the body, the spiritual cultivator continued to charge forward with the knife in hand, and at the same time shouted: "I am Hou Yuan, the general of the Pingyuan Army. If you don't want to die, put down your weapons quickly!"
His voice, coupled with the fact that he had killed the Mo army general with a knife, frightened the Mo soldiers in front so much that their expressions changed and their souls flew out of their minds. People screamed and fled in all directions, in a hurry like a bereaved dog.
Hou Yuan, who was not running as fast as they were, rushed out with a few vigorous steps and chased the two Mo soldiers. He waved the spiritual sword in his hand horizontally, and only heard two sounds of "pounce" and "pounce". The two Mo soldiers were cut off at the waist at the same time. Half of his body fell to the ground, and his lower body ran forward a few steps before falling. Blood and white intestines were flowing all over the ground.
Hou Yuan did not kill him alone. Behind him, there were Xu Bai, one of the generals of the Pingyuan Army, and thousands and thousands of soldiers of the Feng Army.
Just when the Mo army was going all out to resist the Fengyu coalition forces outside the city, the main force of the Feng army suddenly came from behind and killed them. The blow to the morale of the Mo army was conceivable.
Not to mention that the soldiers of the Mo army were stunned by the sudden attack of the Feng army. Even Wei Bo was a monk of two feet and was confused.
He couldn't figure out how so many Fengjun entered the city and when they came in. Could it be that they fell from the sky?
But it was useless to pursue these matters now. Wei Bo could only bite the bullet and command his own soldiers who were resting under the city wall to quickly form formations to resist the wind army rushing from behind.
When the Mo army had a city wall to rely on and took advantage of the geographical advantage, they were able to resist the Feng army that was several times their own. However, at this time, they had nothing to rely on and could only engage in face-to-face close combat with the Feng army. In this way, It seems dwarfed by comparison.
The chaos in the Red Dragon Mandala quickly attracted the attention of the Jade Army attacking the city outside the city. Soon, the Jade Army spies brought the news back to Baili Tu, saying that fierce fighting sounds suddenly came from the Red Dragon Mandala. , it seems that something has changed in the city, but the specific situation is not yet clear.
Upon hearing the spy's report, Baili Tu trembled and was dumbfounded on the spot.
It was not that he was shocked by the good news, but he remembered Xiao Muqing's promise to him. When the time comes, the heavenly soldiers and generals will come to help. Could it be that Xiao Muqing is not talking nonsense, but that he really has magic, really Invited heavenly soldiers and generals?
He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. He glanced timidly at Xiao Muqing beside him, then suddenly turned back and asked the attendant behind him: "Now... what time is it now?"
"Reporting to the general, it's midnight now!"
"Ah!" Bailitu felt like his head was banging, and he couldn't utter another word.
In the past, he had never believed that there were such things as witchcraft and magic in the world, but now that the facts were in front of him, he couldn't help but not believe it. He swallowed hard, raised his hands to Xiao Muqing and said, "Xiao...General Xiao, this...this..."
Xiao Muqing grinned at him and said with a relaxed face: "Brother Baili, didn't I tell you that when the time comes, the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals will come down to earth to help our army break the city. Now the overall situation has been decided, and there is no need to wait for a while. At this moment, the enemy forces in the city will fall apart and be annihilated!"
"Oh, General Xiao is really a god!" Baili Tu turned over and dismounted, raised his hands in an affectionate and solemn manner, and gave Xiao Muqing a respectful and deep salute.
Xiao Muqing has the ability to summon heavenly soldiers and generals. No wonder Feng Kingdom's Pingyuan Army is so powerful that no matter who has such ability, he can command the army to be invincible and conquer all attacks!
At this time, the spies of the Jade Army were running towards Baili Tu one after another like a revolving lantern, reporting the battle reports ahead one by one. "Report—report to the general! A fierce battle broke out in the Red Dragon Mandala. The defenders of Mo Kingdom are having trouble keeping track of their head and tail. The morale of the army is now in chaos!"
"Report - report to the general, more than half of the Mo army defending the city has retreated from the city wall. Now the defenders have little resistance. Our soldiers may break through the city defense at any time!"
"Report - report to the general, our soldiers and the Feng Army have broken through the defense on the left side of the city gate, attacked the city wall, and are chasing the Mo Army!"
"Report——"
The following battle reports were all about the Fengyu Allied Forces' continuous breakthroughs in the Mo army's city defenses. While listening to this, Bailitu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He sat upright on his horse and danced with excitement. As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain falling. Such a solid Red Dragon Altar and such a tenacious defender of the Mo Kingdom. We have been fighting hard for more than two months and have not been able to set foot on the city wall. What happens now? We have been successfully broken through by our side one after another, occupying the Red Dragon Altar, and completely annihilating the defenders in the city. , already in sight.
He loudly said to the messengers around him: "We have heavenly soldiers and generals to help us. Now the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals have descended from the sky and killed the enemy troops in the city. They threw away their helmets and armor. Send my order to all our soldiers to break the city quickly. This is We must work hard to take down the Red Dragon Altar!" "Yes!"
Wow - all the messengers were energetic at this time, shouting in unison, and then urged their horses to rush towards the battlefield ahead.
The war had reached this level, and victory was already certain. Bailitu's awe for Xiao Muqing was palpable. He smiled sheepishly and said: "I have offended Brother Xiao a lot just now. I hope Brother Xiao will be considerate. Don’t be offended!”
Seeing his look like he almost didn't want to pay homage to him, Xiao Muqing secretly smiled in her heart. This Baili Tu was really easy to deceive. He really believed that he could summon heavenly soldiers and generals.
He shook his head secretly, but said with a serious face: "Brother Baili, what are you talking about? You and I are an alliance of brothers, and our two armies are our own brothers. Such politeness is really too foreign."
"Brother Xiao is so broad-minded, I'm really ashamed of him." Baili Tu said with a red face.
Let's talk about the Red Dragon Mandala. Under the attack from inside and outside Fengyu's two armies, the Mo army, which numbered one hundred thousand, collapsed completely. People didn't even have anywhere to escape. Tens of thousands of Mo army were crushed under the city wall. I couldn't walk away, I couldn't retreat even if I wanted to. Looking around, I could see the Fengyu Alliance Army all around the city walls and inside the city. Arrows flew from all directions and kept falling into the Mo army camp, and screams came one after another. The Feng Army directly in front of them was even more aggressive. Sergeant Feng held a steel knife and slashed at the enemies in front of him with red eyes. Sergeant Mo fell down row after row.
The generals of the Mo army who were on the top of the city gate were dumbfounded at this time, including Wei Bo. Looking at the densely packed enemy troops inside and outside the city, people's faces were as gray as dirt, and their clothes had already been soaked with cold sweat.
In the huge city gate tower, among the dozens of generals and civil servants, no one spoke. Now that things have happened, people don’t know what else to say. Everyone has a sense of impending disaster.
This lifeless and almost crazy atmosphere was finally broken by a Mo Bing soldier who came in a panic to report the news.
The soldier rolled over and crawled on the ground. When he got close to Wei Bo, he knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, Feng Yu's two armies have begun to attack the city gate tower together. The enemy troops are so large that the brothers below can no longer resist. Come on, my lord, make a decision quickly!”
Wei Bo was stunned at first, and then he threw his head back and burst out laughing. While he was laughing, tears fell down, and he said in a trembling voice: "It's me who is destined to be defeated! I am Uncle Wei who is destined to be defeated!"
"Sir! Let's fight the enemy!" The surrounding Mo generals drew their swords one after another, saluted Wei Bo, and then turned around and rushed towards the bottom of the city gate tower.
In fact, the participation of these Mo generals could not change the overall situation. At best, it could temporarily block the Fengyu coalition forces, preventing them from entering the city gate tower immediately.
Wei Bo naturally understood the reason. At this point in the war, there was no chance to reverse it.
He walked heavily to the arrow stack, pressed his hands on the wall of the stack, lowered his head and looked out. Looking at the high mountains inside and outside the Red Dragon Altar, he murmured in a trembling voice: "The country is so picturesque, I can only sigh. , I am incompetent!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to pull down a torch stuck in the wall, turned around, and said to the remaining civil servants: "I would rather die than suffer the humiliation of Feng Yu's two armies. Sir, if you want to live, , surrender to the enemy now!”
When everyone present heard this, they all knelt on the ground and said with tears in their eyes: "We are willing to live and die with you, and live and die together!"
"Haha..." Wei Bo laughed again, shook his head and said, "If no one else could be as reckless as you are, how could we be here today?" As he spoke, he held the torch in his hand. He threw it to the ground, and then threw the oil lamp next to the torch.
The kerosene in the oil lamp flowed out and stuck to the fire. There was a whirring sound, and a large piece of wood on the ground burned. Wei Bo was like crazy. He kept throwing the oil lamps around him to the ground, laughing wildly as he threw them: "No one is afraid of death, no one is incompetent, haha..."
"Haha... God is unfair. He gave me the heart to serve the country, but he didn't give me the strength to serve the country. God is unfair... Haha..."
In just the blink of an eye, the city gate tower turned into a sea of fire. In the end, more than 20 officials from the Mo Kingdom, including Wei Bo, were not spared, and they were all buried in the sea of fire.
Wei Bo was born as a disciple of Shaofang. He entered the court of Mo State only after Shaofang succeeded to the throne. He was regarded as one of the "chickens and dogs" in "one man can achieve enlightenment and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven".
A minister like him who came from a grassroots background and rose to prominence only because he chose the right master was looked down upon by the traditional powerful men. But Wei Bo's ability, conduct, and loyalty were far superior to those of the Mo nobles. It is a pity that a towering tree that is rotten to the root will quickly wither and wither even if it accidentally grows new branches and leaves.
The country of Mo has always had many talents, such as the fierce general Qi Heng, the commander-in-chief Qing Yu, and the civil servant Wei Bo. They are all outstanding heroes among men. However, these heroes died or fled, and stayed in Mo country to hold the power of the court. Yes, it is those traditional nobles who are like tumors. The disadvantages of hereditary monarchy and hereditary power are vividly reflected in the current Mo country.
