Heaven-defying Skills

The accident in Lot City forced Ao Yunxing's troops to retreat and stationed themselves in a flat plain area more than ten miles outside the city.

Aoyang's army was besieged by four soldiers and horses in Jialan, and was completely cut off from the outside world. Gupa cursed in his heart, although King Xiaoyao was marching quickly, if Ao Yunxing had not delayed the military plane twice, it would not have been possible. If this happens, you will be outside and your life will be compromised. At this moment, Ao Yunxing is the biggest here, so what can you do if you are dissatisfied.

After testing a few more attacks, the rock solidity of Lot City could not be shaken at all. Of course, can such a small-scale attack be effective? Unless there is no one in the city, but in Ao Yunxing's words: "Now that the enemy has occupied the city, we can only wait for the army of the king of Houhou Town to arrive, break into the city, and fly to support Jialan."

In the imperial capital, the situation on the front line was constantly reported. First, His Royal Highness Prince Aoyang rushed to Jialan in an emergency, intercepted Cai Lun, the rebel's previous unit, and stationed in Jialan City. When the emperor heard about it, he applauded and felt sorry for Aoyang. Feel satisfied.

Then the loss of Hengsha Dulang was also reported to the imperial city, and hundreds of officials were summoned to decipher King Xiaoyao's conspiracy. Finally, they came to the conclusion that King Xiaoyao wanted to capture Lot, but could his army arrive before Ao Yunxing? , the results came out quickly, and another urgent report arrived. Lot had been occupied by the rebels, Prince Aoyang lost contact with the friendly forces, and the emperor's teacup, which was tasting tea at the time, fell to the ground and shattered.

There was another urgent report from the front. After running at full speed, the troops from Bingyuan Mountain finally arrived at Lot and launched the most violent attack on Lot. For a day in a row, the fields were littered with corpses. Lot was about to be captured. At this moment, The follow-up legions of the rebels also arrived. The exhausted counter-rebellion legions stopped their attacks after several fierce attacks to no avail, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.

The imperial capital was in a state of anxiety at this moment. Ao Yang went into battle lightly and did not bring much food and grass. With the consumption in the past few days, it is estimated that the inventory of Jialan City has also begun to be used. If Lot is not opened up, even Ao Yang's army will It was absolutely unimaginable to be able to hold on but still starve. At that time, it was absolutely unthinkable.

The entire imperial capital began to mobilize, and the military began to recruit volunteers from the four major colleges to go to the battlefield to assist in the attack on Lot. When Han Fengxue learned that Aoyang was in deep trouble, he summoned Xiaodiao and galloped away. The target was not Lot. But Gloria.

In Jialan City, there are mountains of corpses outside the city. The dead soldiers were piled into small hills. The west wind roared past, desolating the earth. The atmosphere was filled with chills. The soil on the ground was soft and soft, soaked in blood. The bright red water and the blood-like sunset symbiotically set off the sky and the earth.

On the top of the city, there were also piles of corpses. The pale faces of the exhausted and almost exhausted soldiers only had expressions of determination and bravery to die. Prince Ao Yang and the guard Shi Qian stood at the forefront of the city. The original color of the armor can no longer be seen clearly, it is all blood red at this time.

The two lonely figures seemed to be the only ones in the world. They were indescribably sad. They looked at the ruins of the broken wall and the bloody soldiers fell in front of them one by one. Their hearts were bleeding silently. Above them, something violent was also happening. The collision caused the two sides to become entangled.

Another row of soldiers at the top of the city collapsed helplessly. Occasionally, a few people climbed up the city tower. Ao Yang held the Weeping Blood Setting Sun Sword. The sword could kill people. Shi Qian was surrounded by strong fire elements and saw someone coming up. , then give him a mark.

Seeing that there were less than a thousand soldiers left at the top of the city, and some of them had broken arms or legs, and then looking at the countless crowds below who were rushing up wave after wave, Ao Yang and Shi Qian felt as if they were naked. Standing in the cold winter snowflakes, feeling cold and lonely, desperate and desolate.

"Kill" Shi Qian let out a pitiful roar, and a bright fire suddenly appeared, turning the enemy troops on the city wall into ashes. However, at this moment, the fire element around Shi Qian dimmed, and his breathing became somewhat rapid. He was already at the end of his crossbow. .

Ao Yang looked at Shi Qian and showed a smile of sincere admiration: "General Shi, if Ao Yang can make a friend like you before his death, he will die with no regrets."

Seeing that Ao Yang could still talk and laugh so freely at this moment, Shi Qian felt a sense of sympathy between heroes, his pride was released again, and he laughed heartily.

The two of them looked down at the city. After killing a few soldiers who came up again, they slowly raised their swords. The tip of the sword was pointed at their own chest. Shi Qian saw Ao Yang's movements here, and a drop of hero slowly Didi Luo, he did not persuade him. If Aoyang was captured alive, King Xiaoyao would definitely use him to threaten the empire. The situation would definitely be worse then, and the counter-rebellion army would also be on top of everything, both in terms of morale and strategy. will cause immeasurable consequences.

"Hey!" A huge eagle chirped, swirling around the battlefield. Ao Yang looked up and saw a large, colorful eagle swooping down towards the head of Jialan City.

"Brother Ao, no." A hurried cry rang out, and the colorful eagle arrived at the top of the city in a moment with a strong wind. Han Fengxue stepped off Xiaodiao's back and said to Ao Yang, "Brother, follow me."

Seeing Han Fengxue rushing to help from thousands of miles away, Ao Yang felt warm in his heart, but he shook his head: "Xue Feng, I came with a hundred thousand soldiers. They all defended Jialan to the death and sacrificed their lives. At this time, I am the only one left. If I abandon the city, how can I face my brothers who died in battle?"

Han Fengxue was anxious, but when she saw the calmness and determination on Ao Yang's face, she knew that it was impossible for him to change his mind. He confessed to Xiao Diao in his heart, and saw Xiao Diao rush into the air and face the rebels. The air force attacked.

"Since big brother won't leave, I can only accompany him." He took out the Jiuxiao Ring Pendant, stood on the top of the city, and slowly plucked the strings of the zither.

At this moment, Ao Yang was stunned, feeling touched but also worried. He knew Han Fengxue's temper and couldn't persuade him at all. He could only sigh helplessly and thought to himself: "If it really comes to a dangerous moment, even if I die, I have to take Han Fengxue away."

Shi Qian looked at the two people's actions, a little confused. Ao Yang smiled at him. At that time, there were also millions of people outside the imperial city of the imperial capital. Han Fengxue's song made them unable to extricate themselves. Although it was a real killing field at this moment, he believed that with Han Fengxue's strength, guarding the top of the city, it would be almost impossible for the enemy to come up easily.

"This is my brother!" Ao Yang said to the air in an elusive way. Shi Qian, who was standing by, saw the brotherhood of life and death in his clear eyes, which made him tremble slightly. The light words deeply shocked him. It was like the sound of nature from the soul. At this moment, there was no trace of impurities in Ao Yang's pure eyes. All the hustle and bustle, iron-blooded elegy were gone, and only the indescribable brotherhood remained.

The little eagle cried and returned to Han Fengxue. The rebel troops in the air had disappeared. The Bingpohu was also stationed on the top of the city. Its cold eyes swept over the soldiers who kept climbing up below, like the death god from hell. As long as someone came up, he would be destroyed.

The soldiers climbing up the city wall looked at the two powerful monsters in horror. Victory was in sight, but unexpectedly, two evil spirits suddenly came from the sky. The powerful monsters had already been killed. A young man with fluttering sleeves, whose elegant temperament seemed to be out of touch with the world, actually played music on the top of the city where the bloody battle was taking place.

The sound of the piano gradually became louder, suppressing the noisy shouts and killings, desolate and graceful, as if a loving mother in the distance was calling her wandering son away from home, or as if the wife and children at home were looking at their husbands and fathers who were going to the war. Sad and sentimental emotions gradually grew, the bloodthirsty red light in their eyes slowly faded, and the murderous intent in their hearts slowly subsided. In their minds, there were figures that were either old or young, wandering around. The smoke and clouds of the battlefield seemed to be far away from them. They didn't remember that they were still climbing the city wall at this moment, and they didn't remember that they could take down Jia Lan if they went forward.

The sound of the piano began to cry, and the relatives in the distance began to cry. The soldiers began to put down their swords and sat on the ground, with deep longing and slightly cool tears in their eyes.

The soldiers in the distance were preparing to welcome the victory and waiting for the city gate to open, but they saw the soldiers in front of them sitting there in despair, looking at each other in confusion. Another wave of tide surged, and the follow-up troops moved forward to develop, wanting to see the situation here, but before they had a way, the sound of the piano began to reach their ears, and slowly, slowly, they also calmed down and began to listen. Without exception, they also forgot about the battle like those people at the beginning.

There was a lot of noise. The large army in the rear knew what was happening. Some of them couldn't believe that the reason why their army laid down their weapons was just because the young man on the city wall was playing the piano. At this moment, the general of this army was still Cai Lun. Curious, he led nearly a thousand soldiers to explore forward. Then he realized that everything was so simple. While the soldiers were not completely invaded by the piano music, he opened his mouth and roared loudly. The sound waves rolled and pulled the distracted soldiers back, and then ordered a retreat.

Han Fengxue looked at the soldiers who retreated like locusts. There were only piles of corpses under the city wall. A sense of sadness surged in his heart. This was the battlefield. One general's success was achieved at the cost of thousands of lives. He stopped playing, and Shi Qian also woke up from the sadness. He was shocked to see the young boy in front of him. Although the boy's face was full of determination and his eyes were full of vicissitudes, it could still be seen from the outline that Han Fengxue would definitely not be more than 20 years old. Just such a young man, a single song, actually made hundreds of thousands of troops return empty-handed. In the past, he sneered at the zither player and the so-called zither art competition. He let others brag about it, but he always thought it was not doing his job properly. At this moment, he finally saw what a zither player was. Sometimes a zither player could defeat a country with thousands of horses and thousands of troops.

Ao Yang glanced at Shi Qian, and his eyes were proud, as if saying: "See, this is my brother!"
