Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Xue Yi was wearing armor with a solemn face. He stood on the city wall, the cloak behind him flapping in the howling wind.

Tiny snowflakes floated in the sky, and it was unknown whether they were blown down from the snow-capped mountains by the wind, or fell from the dark clouds in the sky.

The wind howled, and the tiny snowflakes slapped on the armor, and on the skin, it actually brought a faint tingling pain.

However, at this time, the soldiers all over the city had no time to pay attention to these things, they all looked down at the city with heavy faces.

Below the city, on a relatively gentle hillside, the black army array could not be seen to the end at a glance, as if it was connected with the phantom of the lofty mountains at the end of the sky.

The drums are beating and the flags are flying.

The dull sound of the horn blew, shattering the flying frost all over the sky.

The 30 troops of the Fire Worship Royal Court slowly advanced with the sound of war drums.

A moment later, tens of thousands of vanguard troops launched an attack on Lingwei Pass.

The course of the battle was extremely tragic.

Lingweiguan City stands on the mountainside, condescending, and the city is seven feet tall, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

However, the Fire Worship Royal Court seemed to fail to see this, and still dispatched tens of thousands of troops to attack the city. Even if they built ladders on the city wall, they still could not reach the city wall. Gold juice and so on smashed to death.

at the foot of the mountain.

Lloyd looked like a dying soldier, with no emotion on his face.

Beside him, Mu Yanxin frowned.

"General, isn't such a siege too much of a waste of troops!

Even he, a warrior who is not good at military, can see that such a siege will definitely not win Lingwei Pass, but Lloyd has no intention of stopping.

Lloyd shook his head slightly, "If you want to break through Lingwei Pass, you can only attack the city like this!"

"Why?" Mu Yanxin was puzzled.

Lloyd didn't explain, just said: "Just wait and see!"

On the opposite wall, Xue Yi also frowned.

Zhao Gao asked him to guard Lingwei Pass for ten days. To be honest, he was not too worried.

With Lingweiguan's construction of the city, let alone ten days, even thirty days, he is also confident.

However, Xue Yi suddenly felt a little uneasy in the face of the attack method of the Fire Worship Royal Court.

As a general, you must not look at the enemy too stupidly.

If the enemy does something that looks stupid, it must have an ulterior motive.

He was sure that the great general of the Fire Worship Court, Lloyd, was definitely not a fool.Then why did he do such a stupid thing?

"More than 30 years ago, the Lingwei Pass was broken because of internal problems. This time, I have already understood the internal hidden dangers. It is absolutely impossible for them to break through the Lingwei Pass from the inside."

"So how do they plan to break through Lingwei Pass this time? Could it be that they really filled Lingwei Pass with corpses?"

"Corpse!"

Xue Yi frowned as he looked at the layers of corpses below.

Dangdang Dangdang!

At this moment, Ming Jin, the enemy army on the opposite side, retreated, leaving only corpses all over the ground.

And Xue Yi looked at it for a long time, but didn't find anything abnormal.

This was Fire Worship Royal Court's first attack, and it was a tentative attack, but they still left tens of thousands of corpses.

In the next few days, the Fire Worship Royal Court launched an attack every day, three times a day, morning, noon and evening, at a fixed time without any change.

Such a siege made Xue Yi feel even more weird.

It's just that he couldn't figure out what Lloyd was doing.

Lingwei Pass is not an ordinary pass, but a real military fortress.

Compared with Yunyan City, Xiangshan City, and Nanyang City, it is a stronger side fortress, and its difficulty is comparable to Jianmen Pass in Shuzhou.

Jianmen Pass in Shuzhou is called the first pass of Dali, and Lingwei Pass can be called the second pass of Dali.

Not only is the terrain dangerous, but all defensive equipment in the pass city is complete.

There is no shortage of rolling stones, wood, cauldrons, golden juice, crossbows, etc.

One can imagine the difficulty of capturing such a pass city.

However, for several days in a row, Lloyd used an extremely clumsy method to attack the city, which simply made the soldiers of the Fire Worship Royal Court come to die.

Such an unreasonable move made Xue Yi feel restless.

He always felt that he had overlooked something, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

Not only could he not figure it out, but even the generals under his command were completely confused.

In a blink of an eye.

The time has come to the ninth day agreed between Xue Yi and Zhao Gao.

As long as he sticks to it for another day, the agreement between him and Zhao Gao will be considered complete.

At this time, the corpses under the Lingwei Pass had reached [-], and the mountain of corpses had already buried half of the city wall. Standing on the city wall and looking down, the densely packed corpses were as terrifying as hell.

In the cold weather, the corpse did not rot, and even had a tendency to freeze, making it look even more terrifying.

In the past two days, the Fire Worship Royal Court attacked the city by stepping on these corpses.

You must know that the Fire Worship Royal Court only has a total of 30 troops, but it has filled [-] soldiers under Lingwei Pass.

In the dark night, it seemed that boundless thick ink was smeared heavily on the sky, not even a single gleam of stars.

The howling cold wind seems to be pushing the dark night to swallow everything.

city ​​wall.

The soldiers who were keeping watch at night stomped their feet exhaustedly.

They were tired and drowsy, but the cold wind made them dare not fall asleep.

Once they fall asleep, what awaits them is likely to be frozen to death.

Except for the howling of the cold wind in the silent night, the silence was a little scary.

Sudden.

A slight noise sounded, but under the howling of the cold wind, it did not attract the attention of the night watchmen.

But then the noise got louder and louder.

Click, click sound as if something broke.

There are more and more voices like this.

Finally, the night watchman heard it.

"what sound!"

The night guard soldiers looked down the city, but it was a pity that it was so gray that they could hardly see anything.

Click, click~~

The sound is getting louder.

The soldiers heard it all.

When they met each other, they all showed panic expressions.

"Quick, quick, there is an abnormality, alert!" Someone shouted.

woohoo~~

The dull sound of the horn suddenly resounded through the night.

The silent Lingwei Pass immediately became noisy.

Xue Yi, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound of the horn, and suddenly jumped up from the bed.

He was still wearing iron armor, and with a long sword in his hand, he rushed towards the city wall.

"what happened?"

However, when he came to the city wall, there were only a large number of soldiers gathered on the city wall, and there was no battle.

"General, there are some strange voices!"

It was reported.

It's just that more and more soldiers climbed onto the city wall, and the noisy voice covered up other abnormalities.

"Silence!"

Xue Yi gave a cold snort.

All of a sudden, the city wall fell silent.

Click, click~~

Strange sounds became apparent.

Xue Yi's expression changed.

He suddenly picked up a torch and threw it down the city.

Under the dim light of the fire, one after another of strange figures trembled slightly, their stiff hands and feet swayed and swayed.

The pupils in Xue Yi's eyes suddenly shrank.

All the soldiers on the city wall looked pale.

It was as if an icy chill froze them.

"He, he, him, why are they alive again?"

Someone asked tremblingly.

Xue Yi's face was also pale, and his heart was also trembling.

But he still has a sliver of reason lingering in his heart.

Ghoul art!

He suddenly remembered an evil spell.

It is a legend from the countries of the Western Regions.

According to legend, thousands of years ago in the Western Regions, someone used the technique of ghouls to control thousands of corpses. This person was called the God of Death by the people of the Western Regions, which meant the existence of being able to control death.

But this is just a legend, no one knows whether it is true or not, and there is no record in any book.

Everyone thinks it's a lie, but everything now proves that the legend is true.

One hundred thousand ghouls!

Xue Yi suddenly shivered.

"Quick, set fire!"

He growled loudly.

The next moment, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly woke up, and they all got busy.

On this bare mountain, it is not easy to set fire, but fortunately, the reserves in Lingwei Pass City are quite rich.

Cans of lamp oil and bundles of firewood were carried onto the city wall.

There were not many lumber in the city, and those lumber were all under the city. Many alert generals led their soldiers to dismantle door panels, desks, and even beds.

At this moment, they can't care about anything else.

Although they didn't know if the flames could stop those ghouls, they put all their expectations on the flames.

Under extreme fear, they just want to ignite the flame, the bigger the better.

It is the flame of hope, the flame that dispels fear.

As bundles of firewood were lit and jars of lamp oil were sprinkled, flames rose up and down the city walls.

The billowing smoke almost touched the ground under the howling cold wind.
