Immortal and Demon Cultivation

Human war horses can’t outrun the six-legged beasts of heaven after all.

The main reason is that there are too few war horses. At this moment, the war horses retreating to Yumen Pass are almost all ridden by two human warriors.

If they were two Red Feather Army soldiers, they would run fast because they were both women and lighter.

If they were two sturdy men from the Zhenxi Army, who weighed at least 300 kilograms in total, the war horses would naturally slow down after running for dozens of miles.

The dust that covered the sky and the sun finally filled Yumen Pass.

The sound of horse hooves whistled past, and countless war horses carrying human soldiers galloped into the main gate of Yumen Pass.

At the same time, the roars and shouts of wild beasts came from the dust behind.

Obviously, the Storm Legion has caught up with the retreat of the human cavalry.

Qu Jiuyuan heard the shouts behind him and picked up the sound transmission stone.

He shouted loudly: "Brothers of the Zhenxi Army, I'm the one who beat the commander Qu Jiuyuan! The time to sacrifice for the country has come! Turn your horses around! Buy time for the soldiers of the Red Feather Army to enter the pass!"

When Qu Jiuyuan's voice was heard, a tragic scene happened in the dust.

Countless soldiers of the Zhenxi Army turned their horses around and began to charge back.

And the soldiers of the Zhenxi Army who were riding on the same horse with the Red Feather Army also immediately turned over and dismounted.

In order to run faster, these people had thrown away their armor and helmets. At least more than 30% of the soldiers did not have any weapons in their hands.

However, they still rushed in the direction they came from without hesitation.

Many female soldiers of the Red Feather Army also turned their horses around to stop the enemy.

The dust was too heavy, and the human defenders at Yumen Pass could not see what was happening in the dust at all.

All they could hear were the roars of wild beasts, the collision of weapons, the roars and laughter of soldiers before their death, and the shouts of the Red Feather Army soldiers.

The sound was getting closer and closer. In less than an incense stick of time, the shouting and killing were less than 300 steps away from Yumen Pass.

Zhao Zian said hoarsely: "How many have entered the city?"

A deputy general immediately replied: "More than 40,000 cavalry! Less than 80,000 people."

Zhao Zian closed his eyes in pain.

Less than 80,000 people... There were hundreds of thousands of human defenders withdrawn from Longbei Mountain and Longmen.

Now, only less than 80,000 people have safely entered Yumen Pass.

A general said: "General Zhao, we can't wait! Tens of thousands of infantry from the heavenly army are coming, and they are less than 20 miles away from Yumen Pass! The Storm Legion is less than 300 steps under the city gate! Now we must close the city gate immediately! To avoid being rushed into Yumen Pass by the Storm Legion!"

Zhao Zian's eyes were red, and he said hoarsely: "Wait a little longer! Wait a little longer!"

At this moment, countless war horses galloped into Yumen Pass. Waiting a little longer could save more soldiers.

When the shouting and killing was less than 100 feet away, the drums suddenly stopped, and the huge Yumen Pass hanging gate began to be slowly pulled up.

There are more than 30 million soldiers on the entire Yumen Pass defense line, so Zhao Zian is naturally not afraid of the thousands of storm cavalry from the heavens.

However, if these 3,000 storm cavalry rush in and defend the city gate, the tens of thousands of troops from the heavens who will arrive soon may follow up.

And the millions of main forces of the heavens heading south have already arrived from the north.

If these heavenly soldiers cannot be eliminated in a short period of time, Yumen Pass will be in danger.

Zhao Zian cannot gamble with the safety of the Yumen Pass defense line, and must close the city gate before the storm cavalry rushes to the city gate.

Nothing can be seen in the dust.

All you can hear are many people shouting: "The city gate is closed! We can't go back! Brothers, kill one to get it back, kill it for me!"

"Brothers at Yumen Pass, shoot! The enemy is under the city! Shoot!"

Beside each eight-ox crossbow, there is a soldier holding a wooden hammer, which is used to smash the mechanism of the eight-ox crossbow.

At this moment, many soldiers holding wooden hammers have their arms trembling slightly.

At least 300,000 archers were drawing their bows and putting arrows on their bows, their arms were shaking.

They couldn't shoot this arrow.

Because there were more than 100,000 friendly troops below.

Zhao Zian was still unwilling to shoot his friendly troops, his eyes fixed, and he said sternly: "Lower the rope!"

Soon, hundreds of ropes were immediately lowered from the high city wall.

Zhao Zian covered the sound transmission stone and said: "Brothers and sisters under the city, try to get close to the city wall and grab the rope!"

Many people heard the sound, turned over and dismounted, and tried to grope in the direction they thought was the city wall.

Some people found the rope, but many people were lost in the sand and dust.

About half a cup of tea later, the shouting and killing had gathered below.

After a short silence, countless screams and screams were heard.

The rope was constantly pulled up, and dozens of people were hung on a rope.

Fortunately, a winch was used, otherwise it would really not be pulled up.

After the first wave of people were pulled up, the rope was quickly thrown down again.

Zhao Zian said: "Immediately check if General Mi and General Qu have been rescued!"

"Is it General Qu?"

"Have you seen General Mi of the Red Feather Army!"

...Qu Jiuyuan did not come up.

The Red Feather Army's chief general Mi Tusu was rescued.

Zhao Zian learned that Qu Jiuyuan had not yet gone up to the city, and the rescue was still going on.

Soldiers were constantly being pulled up from below.

Since the war horses and beast riders stopped running, the rolling dust gradually dissipated.

The battle situation under the city wall could be roughly seen.

At least 50,000 to 60,000 Zhenxi troops and 10,000 to 20,000 Red Feather troops were resisting under the city.

Qu Jiuyuan was very important. Zhao Zian heard that Qu Jiuyuan was still down there and ordered that no one was allowed to shoot arrows.

However, he did not use the sound transmission stone and asked Qu Jiuyuan to immediately grab the rope and go up to the city.

Qu Jiuyuan was the commander of the Western Army. If he ordered him to come up at this time, he would never go to the city.

The dust and smoke gradually dissipated, and dust and smoke rose again to the west.

It was the infantry of heaven pressing in.

The phantom is riding a golden six-legged beast. Is there a bloody battle going on outside the Jade Gate? There are still people grabbing ropes and climbing up to the high Jade Gate.

She immediately ordered the entire army to speed up the attack.

Tens of thousands of celestial infantry roared in and arrived at the battlefield in the blink of an eye.

Qu Jiuyuan refused to leave and wanted to live or die with his brothers. As a result, he was tied up by his soldiers and had to be pulled up by ropes.

The Celestial infantry quickly cut into the battlefield, and it was already difficult to rescue them through ropes.

Zhao Zian received the news that Qu Jiuyuan had been dragged up. He gritted his teeth and said sternly: "Eight Ox Crossbow! Crossbowman! Shoot from above! Release!"

After ten years of preparation, Yumen Pass finally revealed its terrifying side.

A rain of arrows filled the sky, and countless spears from the Eight Bull Crossbows roared down.

Hundreds of thousands of crossbow arrows and tens of thousands of crossbow guns, if fired at this density, even just one wave would be enough to be unforgettable for a lifetime.

Arrows have no eyes, and this kind of volley does not distinguish between friend and foe.

The ground was full of corpses pierced by arrows and crossbows. There were the Zhenxi Army, the Red Feather Army, the Storm Knights, the Six-legged Beast Riders, and the giant warriors, madman warriors, and skeleton warriors who had just charged over. …
