C623 The Song of Troubled Times

With a low horn sound, The entire Luoan City was filled with smoke and smoke in an instant. The 500 thousand cavalry of Barbarian Army and the 100 thousand sieging legion charged towards the south gate!

At this moment, Yeh Jianhan was already standing on top of the city wall. He looked down at the densely packed army of the Barbarian Tribe, which looked like ants. He shouted, "Fire!" Immediately, countless arrows mixed with the arena and boiling oil fell from the sky, causing the Barbarian Army, who had no time to dodge, to fall to the ground while wailing in pain. However, the remaining Barbarian Army continued to climb up the ladder one after another, ignoring the sacrifices of their comrades.

The fearlessness that the Barbarian Army showed at this moment made Yeh Jianhan, the patriarch of the Ye Family, who was used to seeing life and death situations, slightly moved. However, this did not mean that he would recognize these invaders. His eyes coldly swept across these ferocious soldiers of the Barbarian Tribe. Yeh Jianhan roared angrily. The nameless sword on his waist was unsheathed in an instant. Immediately, a sharp sword Qi slashed downwards diagonally.

In just a single exchange, dozens of Barbarian Tribe soldiers were cut in half. The broken ladder fell to the ground along with it. This overbearing sword had greatly boosted the morale of the defending troops of Luoan. Under such circumstances, the arrogance of Barbarian Army was finally restrained. At this moment, the army of five hundred thousand cavalry, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly launched an attack at the city gate!

"Archers, get ready. Once the enemy enters range. . . Fire!" Yeh Jianhan ordered the thousand master archers on the city wall, then turned his gaze to the thirty thousand experts in the city. He said in a deep voice, "The city guards have thousands of swords. Once the Barbarian Army breaks through the city gate, I will take care of them. Block the gap immediately, even if you have to use your bodies and your lives to block it. I will not allow any enemy to attack the city! "

Before he finished speaking, the 500 thousand cavalry of Barbarian Tribe were less than 300 meters away from the city gate. Without the hindrance of the traps, the speed of the cavalry could only be described as terrifying. In the blink of an eye, the 500 thousand cavalry of Barbarian Tribe had arrived at the bottom of the lake. Looking around, it was a black mass. The long spear in its hand was shining under the cold moon. Obviously, it was extremely sharp!

Under the cover of the five hundred thousand Barbarian Tribe cavalry, dozens of light armored infantry shouted as they pushed the chariots toward the city gate. Seeing this scene, Yeh Jianhan's eyes narrowed to an extremely dangerous degree. He knew that if the Barbarian Army broke through the city gate so easily. . . The consequences would be unimaginable. After all, the five hundred thousand cavalry of the Barbarian Tribe were not something that could be resisted with just their cultivation base. Once they successfully launched their attack, the Luoan would really fall before the reinforcements arrived.

When he thought of this, Yeh Jianhan immediately tightened his grip on the longsword in his hand and raised it high into the sky. He said furiously, "Soldiers, listen up. Even if we have to be crushed to pieces today, we must protect the city gate with our lives!"

"Bang! Bang!"

This was the huge sound produced by the Barbarian Army charging vehicle crashing into the city gates. Every collision caused the entire city wall to shake. At this moment, Yeh Jianhan had already received a longbow from his subordinate. He immediately took out three arrows and placed them on the longbow side by side. The bowstring was pulled like a full moon. With a furious roar, the arrows shot out at high speed. In an instant, the three arrows carried the same deathly aura and ran in three different directions. The three Barbarian Tribe soldiers who were pushing the chariot to attack did not even have the time to wail before they fell to the ground.

Before anyone could react, Yeh Jianhan had already pulled out three more arrows and held them between his fingers. The longbow was pulled to a shocking angle once again. Yeh Jianhan aimed the arrows at the city gate. With a light sound of "Sou," three arrows shot out. Immediately, another three Barbarian Tribe soldiers fell to the ground.

Just like that, Yeh Jianhan shot out 21 arrows in one breath. He also successfully killed 21 Barbarian Tribe soldiers. Taking advantage of the time when the carriage crashed into the city gate, the Barbarian Army soldiers suffered heavy losses. Yeh Jianhan immediately stopped what he was doing and ordered the master archers on the city wall, "From now on. . . Your mission is to guard the city gate. Once the Barbarian Army tries to get close to the city. . . Kill them all!"

The archers who were stunned by the master's archery skills nodded their heads in a hurry. Yeh Jianhan shot out three deadly arrows. Thousands of flashing cold arrows pierced through the night sky, turning the hundreds of Barbarian Tribe soldiers at the city gate into hedgehogs. However, at this moment, a new round of Barbarian Army will come to fill the gap. The battle was still as fierce as before. Cries of grief, the sound of falling, and the sound of breaking through the air were all heard. It formed a soul-stirring sad song of chaos!

At the north gate, Bao Hong stood proudly on the city wall. A pair of hawk-like sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. Nearly fifty thousand of the two hundred thousand soldiers of Barbarian Tribe had been left on this battlefield forever. Bao Hong had also lost over ten thousand lives because of this. This loss was still within his expectation. Moreover, he believed that with these ten giant city-guarding crossbows, it would be enough to suppress the Barbarian Army's archers for a short period of time. As for those heavy armored shield-bearers that were useless to him, Bao Hong did not think that they could pose much of a threat to his side.

Just as he was planning to finish off the Barbarian Army's siege force in one go, he finally received some news that made him very excited.

"Report to Emperor, the soldiers in charge of monitoring all heard the sound of digging underground. May I ask how our army should act?"

The soldier in charge of sending the orders returned and bowed to Bao Hong, asking for instructions.

"Ah, finally here?" Bao Hong sneered and said sternly, "Pass on my order. Immediately send five thousand soldiers to dig a long ditch in the direction of the Barbarian Army's soil excavation. We must cut off the tunnel of the Barbarian Army as soon as possible. At the same time, pile up firewood and prepare the fire spark. Send fifty thousand soldiers to guard the ditch. Once the Barbarian Army appears, we will kill them without mercy!"

After the order was given, After all of this, Bao Hong turned around and said to Yu Shikun and Yu Shikun, "Patriarchs, I will leave this place to you two to command. Just do as you say. I need to go into the city to command the military situation. "

Yu Shikun and Xi Wuyi immediately cupped their hands and said. "Don't worry, Emperor. We won't disappoint everyone. We will make sure that these thieves from the Barbarian Tribe don't come back alive!"

Bao Hong immediately laughed out loud and hurried down the tower. The more than one hundred thousand men from the Barbarian Army had run out of energy. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated. Therefore, he wasn't worried that the two of them, who were lacking in military talents, would cause trouble. The most important thing right now was how to deal with the hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the Barbarian Army who were hiding in the underground tunnels. Therefore, he had to personally take charge of the situation. If not. . . He was afraid that he would fall into the trap of Prince Qing Hen, who was full of tricks.

When Bao Hong arrived in the city, the five thousand people of the pugilistic world had followed his instructions and started digging horizontally. These people all had cultivation bases, and their efficiency was far greater than ordinary soldiers. In less than an hour, a forty zhang long, thirty zhang wide, and more than ten zhang deep trench appeared in front of everyone.
