Chapter 259

At night.

The walls of Guanyue City were still brightly lit.

There were two huge bronze mirrors on the corner towers in the city.

The bronze mirrors could emit dazzling light, like two huge searchlights, shuttling back and forth in the darkness outside the city wall.

Ding Yi looked at the two beams of light in front of him, and suddenly felt a strange sense of detachment, as if he had returned to modern society.

This world has the art of refining weapons, which can often produce many items beyond imagination, and this also makes this siege war more complicated.

However, the soldiers stationed on the city wall seemed to have long been accustomed to this environment. They stared at the night ahead, motionless like stone statues.

"Master, do you want to go down and rest?"

Liu Xun looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, and hurriedly sent a message to Ding Yi.

Ding Yi shook his head slightly. He always felt that Baiyun Temple must have a back-up plan for such a big fight.

Now that the mysterious skull-marked strongman is blocking the entrance of Wanxiang Gate, Ding Yi can only rely on this wave of wealth to find a chance to protect himself in the future.

Every time he thought of the unknown skull mark, Ding Yi always felt a sense of fear, which made him eager to improve his strength, and he even wanted to risk exposing himself and kill people in Guanyue City.

Fortunately, Baiyun Temple gave him the opportunity.

Just like that, half an hour later, the searchlight on the corner tower suddenly illuminated the rapidly moving figure in the dark.

"Something is happening! Everyone get ready!"

With a roar, the people on the city wall drew their weapons and raised their shields in front of them. At the same time, the archer began to stand behind and draw the bow and arrow, with the arrow pointing far ahead.

"Shoot!"

With a roar, the whole air was full of the sound of bowstrings vibrating, and then the arrows in the sky shot forward in unison, and the scene was spectacular.

Ding Yi and Liu Xun stood on one side of the city wall, looking at this scene, with a little doubt in their hearts.

Does the Baiyun Temple want to rely on a surprise attack at night? That's really too stupid.

At this moment, a red light suddenly appeared in the darkness, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

In a moment, the red light came closer, and it was discovered that it was a huge fireball burning with blazing flames!

"Defense!"

With the commander's roar, the archers on the city wall retreated instantly and hid behind the infantry holding armor, and the next moment, the fireball hit the tall city wall heavily.

There was a vibration on the wall of Guanyue City, but at the same time, a hidden light flashed on the gray wall, leaving the entire wall intact.

This is the effect of the formation carved on the wall of Guanyue City. This formation can weaken part of the impact force and play a role in strengthening the city wall, but the cost of arrangement is amazing, and not every city wall is qualified to arrange this formation.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck! Fight back!"

As the commander yelled, the archers who had been prepared for a long time fired another volley, but the effect did not seem obvious. Instead, more fireballs flew out in the night after a few breaths.

At this time, on the grass hundreds of meters away from the city wall, the soldiers of Baiyun Temple were pushing fake scarecrows on the ground.

These scarecrows were full of arrows. Although the archers of Guanyue City were holding strong bows, the distance was too far and the wooden flat plates were stuck behind these scarecrows, so they did not cause any harm to the soldiers here.

Only a few unlucky guys were hit by stray arrows in the gap between moving the scarecrows, but it was not a fatal blow.

In this way, Baiyun Temple kept attacking with fireballs and occasionally launched a round of arrow volleys, but Guanyue City was already tall, and the arrows were shot from bottom to top, so the effect was average.

Finally, after the two sides had been fighting for more than an hour, the figures of the Baiyun Temple quietly disappeared into the night, and the entire Guanyue City was silent again. Although such a tentative attack did not cause much casualties, it aroused the nerves of the defenders of the entire Guanyue City, and they felt tired after relaxing.

"Feint attack?"

Ding Yi stood behind Liu Xun and frowned when he saw this scene.

The Baiyun Temple feinted right away, which meant that the other party was not in a hurry at all, but wanted to make the defenders tired of defending, and then launch a fatal attack at a critical moment.

The Yinyang Palace also obviously discovered this. The commander on the city wall quickly ordered new soldiers to go up to the city wall to replace the wave of people who had just guarded the city wall mountain.

Take turns to defend the city and see who can outlast whom!

In this way, in the next few days, Baiyun Temple launched several more attacks, but they were all meaningless feints. The most brutal one was to send thousands of people to attack, but they retreated because of heavy losses before they even got a hundred meters close to Yinyang Palace in the rain of arrows.

During this period, Li Wanyun and others successfully left here. They also asked Ding Yi to join them, but Ding Yi directly refused under the pretext that Liu Xun was keeping a close eye on them.

On the fourth day, the frequency of Baiyun Temple's feints became more and more frequent, which made the atmosphere on the Yinyang Palace side extremely tense, and a murderous atmosphere gradually permeated the top of the city.

In Guanyue City.

Marshal Yuan Liangyu was sitting in the barracks, looking at the sand table in front of him in silence.

Generals such as Wu Yusong and Du Jiuzhao were on the left and right, constantly putting forward their opinions and ideas.

"Commander, I don't think this will work in the long run. Why don't we divide one battalion each and walk east and west, bypass the city wall and outflank the enemy?"

Wu Yusong said slowly.

"No, this method is too risky. If those old bald donkeys ambush on both sides, wouldn't they be falling into a trap?!"

Someone said quickly.

"Then what do you think we should do? Are we going to be led by the nose like this?!"

Wu Yusong snorted coldly and then asked.

"Use silence to stop, we are defending the city, why are you panicking?!"

The man sneered instead.

The venue suddenly became noisy and divided into two groups.

One faction, represented by Wu Yusong, wanted to conduct a surprise attack around the city to contain the opponent.

One faction, represented by Hong Huang, advocates waiting for work and just holding on to Guanyue City.

Both parties had their own reasons and couldn't argue for a while. At this moment, Yuan Liangyu suddenly said:

"Xiwen Wuhen is a man with extremely high talent in leading troops. He knows that it is difficult to attack and easy to defend, but he still acts like this. There must be a plan behind it."

"Yusong, you will lead two battalions and go out of the city a hundred miles from the right. That area is a jungle. You will ambush there and wait for the signal."

"Zhu Tao, you also lead two battalions and go out of the city a hundred miles from the left. There is also a jungle there."

"The rest of you just need to guard Guanyue City."

As soon as the commander spoke, everyone naturally had no objections. They clasped their fists and accepted the order, and then hurried out of the barracks.

At this time, Yuan Liangyu suddenly shouted to Du Jiuzhao:

"Jiuzhao, you stay."

After hearing this, Du Jiuzhao naturally stayed in the barracks and stood there quietly waiting for the other generals to leave.

When there were only Du Jiuzhao and Yuan Liangyu in the barracks, Yuan Liangyu suddenly asked:

"Do you know the origin of Liu Xun who brought Zhou Luan's head back?"

When Du Jiuzhao heard this, he immediately smiled and said:

"Commander, Director Liu is the direct disciple of Yangji Palace, and his life experience is very innocent."

Yuan Liangyu shook his head slightly and said:

"I'm not asking you this, I'm asking, how much do you know about his strength?"

Du Jiuzhao was stunned and immediately shook his head, expressing his ignorance.

Yuan Liangyu said leisurely:

"Zhou Luan is Xi Wen Wuhen's master. I'm afraid you don't know this."

"Tomorrow, you ask Liu Xun to stand on the top of the city and insult Zhou Luan. I don't believe it. Xi Wen Wuhen can still bear it."
