Chapter 230

C230 – The Black Armor Appeared

“Close the gate! Prepare for battle!” A horse galloped to the city gate. The man on the horse shouted and jumped off the horse. He ran to the top of the city wall and lit the fire on the tower.

This fire tower had been abandoned for many years. It had not been lit in the previous battle because everyone knew that it would be useless even if it was lit.

Looking at the rising black smoke, the young man holding the torch looked at the rising smoke and then looked into the distance.

At the boundary of the world, there seemed to be a cloud of black smoke moving towards them. He threw down the torch and shouted, “The enemy is approaching, speed up!”

In broad daylight, the civilians of Qinyang City suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the city had changed. The soldiers who should have won the battle gathered together again and rushed towards the city gate in military uniform. For a moment, everyone was in a panic, and the streets were filled with civilians.

“Didn’t they say that they won? Why did they fight again?” An old man sighed.

Who knows? Maybe the enemy has reinforcements, but there’s no need to be afraid. I heard that there’s someone important in our city, and that person brought a rare fireball, which is enough to intimidate the enemy. Last time, we relied on that person to win. “

“Sigh, I hope so. Otherwise, people like us… don’t panic. Take people to Yu Rong Street to help. It’s good that we can help. “

“Here.”

Two hours passed. Very quickly, a tremor came from the calm ground. Even if they didn’t see it, they could still imagine the scene of thousands of horses galloping.

“Report… the enemy has a hundred thousand troops and thirty thousand vanguard troops have arrived at the city walls. Do you wish to attack?”

“Report… the left wing of the enemy has ten thousand men digging two hundred meters away. It seems like they are going to pass through the city gates from underground. City Lord, please give the order!”

“Reporting… The right wing of the enemy has ten thousand men surrounding the Qinyang City’s back. They are trying to attack. City Lord, please send troops to defend!”

Yang Feng frowned and looked at the young man standing next to him, “Your Highness, how should we fight this battle?”

Obviously, City Lord Yang knew that without special means, it was impossible to win this battle. Unless Crown Princess had used a lot of fireballs last time, it would not be able to stop the army of one hundred thousand.

“Wait!” Crown Prince Zhao only said one word.

“Wait?” Yang Feng felt like he was going to go crazy. When was he going to wait? Did His Highness think there would be more reinforcements?

However, the total number of guards within a radius of a thousand miles was not enough to defend against the enemy’s one hundred thousand strong army!

“Your Highness, this time the enemy’s combat strength has clearly increased. At least fifty thousand of them are elite soldiers of North Yue, and the person leading the troops is also a good general of North Yue. Relying on us alone…”

Crown Prince Zhao cast his gaze towards the city below. In front of the rows of vigorous armies, there was a man looking at him with an unruly gaze.

“Haha… South Jin’s turtles and grandsons, surrender now! As long as you open the city gates, I guarantee that the civilians in the city will not die! Otherwise… when I break open the city gate, I will massacre Qinyang City!”

“Open the city gate! Open the city gate… surrender! ” Surrender! ” The orderly slogan reverberated in the sky above Qinyang City. When the civilians in the city heard the enemy’s imposing manner, even their legs went soft.

“Only by surrendering can we survive…” The hearts of the civilians in the city began to waver. No one was not afraid of death. Who would not want to live when they knew that there was a way out?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Shut up! The soldiers in front of us will defend this city with their lives. It’s fine if we don’t contribute, but how can we give up so easily?”

Tang Yue saw that the people were rousing him. He got some people to catch a few weak shrimps and throw them into the prison. He also sent people to spread rumors that the reinforcements from South Jin were coming, and that their forces were enough to wipe out the enemy. Hence, City Lord Yang and the others were still defending the city with their lives on the line.

“That person is still here.” Someone spread the news. A short sentence instantly calmed the hearts of most of the people.

In their opinion, the fact that even the important person had not escaped meant that Qinyang City would not lose. Otherwise, which important person would be willing to die with them?

The atmosphere in the city gradually calmed down. The first miserable cry from the city gate was heard. The enemy had started to attack the city.

Unlike the previous two times, the siege weapons brought by the enemy this time were even better. The city gate was on the verge of collapse, and the soldiers climbing up the city wall were a hundred times harder to deal with than before.

They were agile and had great arm strength. They could climb up the city walls with just a rope, but what welcomed them were boulders, rolling wood, and boiling hot oil.

Screams rose and fell. After an hour of failure, the first enemy finally climbed up the city wall. He pulled out the long knife from his waist and cut down a South Jin soldier.

In a melee, these elite soldiers of the North Yue clearly had the upper hand. Normal soldiers were no match for them.

“Your Highness…” City Lord Yang was anxious. “Hurry up and leave, let the officials hold them back…”

Crown Prince Zhao shook his head and pointed into the distance. “Yang Qing, did you see that?”

“What did you see?” City Lord Yang wanted to say that he did not see anything. He wanted to continue persuading Crown Prince Zhao to retreat, but he heard the deputy beside him scream, “Which side is that reinforcements?”

City Lord Yang looked up and saw the rolling dust and dust at the border of the horizon. It was as if an unusual sandstorm was coming.

He was dumbstruck, “How many cavalry were able to achieve such an effect?”

The speed of the army’s movement was not considered fast, but it still gradually revealed its true appearance.

“Heavens… what is that?”

A cloud that was like a black fog floated over. Its aura was like a red pillar that swept through everything. As the other party approached, the speed at which the earth moved was no less than the one hundred thousand troops from before.

When it got closer, Some people with sharp eyes saw this army that was armed from head to toe, but this understanding made them feel even more despair.

They had never heard of such an army in South Jin. This must be the enemy’s reinforcements, my life is over!

“Your Highness… This… This is…” Yang Feng was so shocked that he could not speak. Could this be their reinforcements? But since when did South Jin have such a mysterious and well-equipped cavalry?

The pitch black armor was suffused with a metallic sheen, and the horses that were bound within the armor were so valiant as they galloped over. Their imposing aura was capable of killing gods and buddhas when they encountered gods, and it actually caused one’s heart to palpitate for no reason.

“Next, let’s see exactly how great the lethality of this cavalry troop is.”

Yang Feng’s gaze descended onto the masks of the ghost faces and fangs, and he was deeply shocked. This… this is a warrior trained by South Jin? How did he do it?

The first to arrive at the battlefield were the five thousand light cavalry. They charged into the enemy’s army and quickly disrupted the enemy’s formation with their agility, taking the lives of the enemy with their long blades.

Yang Feng was surprised to find that the long blades were different from normal military weapons. They were thinner and sharper, and when the blades met, the enemy’s weapons would be easily cut off. It was as if they were cutting through iron like mud.

“Your Highness, how did you make this weapon?” Yang Feng asked. If the soldiers of South Jin could be equipped with such a divine weapon, why would we need to worry about peace in the world?”

Crown Prince Zhao shook his head, “This weapon consumes too much iron, it is not enough for the entire army. Moreover, the forging process is too complicated and complicated. Without ten years and eight years, we would not be able to forge that many weapons.”

“What a pity… But, Your Highness, why did they put armor on their horses? From a distance, this official thought that it was armor, but from a closer look, it doesn’t seem like it.”

“That is rattan armor made from rattan, it is even lighter than armor.”

Yang Feng nodded. He had thought it was impossible to wear armor on horses from the start. Otherwise, it would be good if the weight didn’t crush the horses. How could they be so agile?

“Your Highness, does the king of this army know?” Yang Feng asked in fear. He thought that he seemed to have found some secret.

Crown Prince Zhao shook his head and did not explain much. He believed that if the news spread to Ye City, it would definitely make King of South Jin furious. There were also many officials who would put shit on his head, but he did not need to care about this anymore.

With the addition of five thousand heavy cavalry, the war had gradually turned from a disadvantageous position to an advantageous position. Even if the two armies had a huge disparity in strength, they still wouldn’t be able to stop the Black Armored Guard’s attack.

Many of the soldiers were so scared that their legs went weak when they saw the ferocious mask. Their resistance had dropped drastically. Moreover, they had discovered that these black-clad fellows were impervious to weapons and weapons. It was as if they were possessed by a divine technique, which naturally made them lose their will to fight.

Let me ask you, they knew that the other party was impervious to weapons and couldn’t be killed, so where did their fighting spirit come from?

When the enemy general saw that their morale had plummeted, he hatefully chopped off a fleeing soldier and roared, “Don’t mess up your formation. Surround them and attack them. This general doesn’t believe that this is evil. They are just a bunch of cowards who are playing tricks on us. Kill them all!”

He slashed at a fully-armed Black Armored Guard. The ear-piercing sound of friction was accompanied by a spark, as if he was laughing at the general’s self-deception.

He was about to swing his blade again, but the other party didn’t give him the chance. The Black Armored Guard pulled the reins with one hand, and the mount turned around. The man fell backwards, and with a stretch of his arm, the long spear pierced into the other party’s head. It was half an inch high, and only a handful of black hair and the other party’s hat were cut off.

“Hur hur… mistake, continue!” A clear male voice came from under the mask. Under the man’s surprised gaze, the man continued to attack.

“Fight with all your strength, or else you will undoubtedly die today!”

“Hmph, arrogant and conceited! Today, the Japanese general will let you see what true strength is!”

The two quickly exchanged weapons. One won in agility, while the other won in defense. The outcome was not decided very quickly.
