Chapter 525: Unstoppable
One after another, there were muffled sounds, mixed with piercing screams that broke through the air, and the whole earth seemed to be shaking!
The scorching flames were running everywhere, a strange pungent smell was smelling, and thick smoke was billowing.
Debris and fragments flew out in all directions like sharp swords.
The originally solid city wall collapsed instantly with a gap in the explosion!
"What is this? Is it an earth dragon turning over?" Ma Nantian opened his swollen eyes. His ears were temporarily deafened due to the explosion just now.
He could hear nothing but saw dust and fire rising from the city gate!
Just at this moment, a thick dark cloud blocked the moonlight, and the entire world returned to the frightening darkness.
Both the Tartars and the Han people in the city were terrified by this doomsday-like scene.
They knelt on the ground with their foreheads and upper bodies pressed against the ground, their attitude humble and pious.
"Please calm the anger of the gods."
"Please calm down, God!"
The Lord of Wuzhou City didn't even bother to put on his clothes. He rushed to the door with his body exposed, trembling all over, and unable to utter a word.
The entire Wuzhou City seemed to have been paused. The huge panic made everyone forget to escape. They could only pray for God's mercy like humble ants with the most pious attitude.
At this moment, their minds were blank.
They didn't understand what Wuzhou City had done to anger the gods and cause them to bring down such divine punishment.
They didn't know what they should do to calm the angry gods.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of drums suddenly rose, as loud as thunder, resounding through heaven and earth!
The people crawling on the ground could clearly feel that the earth was shaking rhythmically, as if thousands of troops were galloping together!
Ma Nantian, who was hanging on the altar, stared at the direction of the city gate without blinking.
Even the Ma family ancestor, who was about to faint, was awakened by the sudden explosion: "Nantian, is it the earth dragon turning over, or is it attacking the city?"
Ever since Wuzhou City fell into the hands of the Tartars, the ancestor of the Ma family no longer believed in gods.
If there is a spirit in heaven, why doesn't it look at the Han people in Wuzhou City who are in dire straits? !
The ancestor of the Ma family shook his head, and there was a roar in his ears, and he could not hear any sound from the outside world at all.
The ancestor of the Ma family followed Ma Nantian's gaze and looked towards the city gate.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the cold moonlight once again sprinkled on the world.
At the city gate, countless figures appeared in the smoke and flames.
They are like heavenly soldiers and generals, and also like an army of revenge crawling out of hell.
As they got closer, the sound of horses' hooves became clearer.
The brave ones raised their heads slightly, trying to see who it was.
"Hey!"
With a roar, the army finally rushed out of the smoke and dust!
The horse steps on the cold moonlight, as if flying above the clouds.
The leading general was wearing a silver willow-leaf armor covered in red blood. His pleasing face looked like the King of Hell, so cold that it made people tremble in their hearts.
Behind her were white horses in iron armor, with strong bows on their backs and long spears in their hands, the tips of which reflected red light as if carrying flames.
Each of them followed the general like a killing god.
Wherever the flag points, the army will be invincible!
"kill!"
Tens of thousands of elite and brave men burst into earth-shaking slogans, like a tsunami and thunder out of the blue.
The red flags were like thunder and fire from the sky, and wherever they passed, rivers of blood flowed!
Before the Tartars could react and were crawling on the ground, their heads separated from their bodies and flew into the air with a flash of light.
The Han people looked up stupidly and blinked their eyes. Their brains seemed to be rusty and they could not believe what they were seeing.
The mighty warriors passed by them like a gust of wind.
When they encountered someone blocking the way, the soldiers would lightly kick the horses' bellies, and the horses would leap high over them and closely follow the general's flag!
The Han people touched their necks, then looked down and saw the dead Tartar's head rolling in the mud with his eyes open.
The head is still on my neck.
But why is it still there?
All the living people fixed their eyes on the leading general.
The Tartars who stood in front of the general were either beheaded by a knife or stabbed to death by a sword. Some rolled to the ground, and those who managed to escape would have their internal organs trampled by the white horse!
They rushed all the way from the city gate to the altar with unstoppable force.
The general pulled the reins, and the white horse under her raised its front hooves high, then dropped them heavily.
Meeting the general's gaze, the muscles on Ma Nantian's face trembled uncontrollably and tears of excitement welled up in his eyes.
Ma Nantian opened his mouth, and his throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton.
He stared blankly at the familiar face, and looked around, seeing bright red sun and star flags everywhere.
The emotions that had been suppressed for so long burst out like a flood.
Ma Nantian used up all his strength and roared, "Welcome to the general, welcome to Duke Yun!"
"Welcome to the great general! Welcome to Duke Yun!"
Buzz!
Ma Nantian's heart-wrenching roar was like a flash of lightning, which made everyone shudder.
The people, who were originally confused and worried, finally started to think.
Why didn’t I die?
Because this is the general!
The general attacked the city.
The general successfully attacked!
Wuzhou is going home!
After a full minute, the Han people rushed out of the low houses and kowtowed to the figure in front of the altar.
Their faces were filled with tears, and their surging joy was mixed with the grievance of finally seeing their loved ones.
"Welcome to the general, welcome to Duke Yun!"
The congratulations that came one after another gradually became unified after being shouted several times.
The strong emotions in it made many Tatars who were hiding shudder.
Gu Nanxi sent people to untie the ropes that bound the Ma family.
Because the war was still going on, Gu Nanxi did not dismount, but saluted to the Ma family while on the horse.
Ma Nantian only felt that his whole body was full of energy, his hands were no longer numb, his ears were no longer deaf, his stomach was no longer hungry, and the pain in his body disappeared!
"General, I am familiar with Wuzhou City and can lead the way for you!"
Gu Nanxi nodded: "Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion!"
Old man Geng grabbed Ma Nantian and threw him onto his horse, and the two of them rode on the same horse.
Ma Nantian pointed Gu Nanxi to the shortest way.
When they arrived at the city lord's mansion, the city lord had just put on his clothes and was ready to escape on horseback.
But the horse had never heard such an explosion, so no matter how the city lord whipped it, it refused to move.
The city lord looked at the Yunzhou cavalry surrounding the city lord's mansion in despair, his face as pale as snow. How could the Jade-faced King of Hell break into the city so quickly?
Speed is of the essence in war, Gu Nanxi didn't want to waste time here: "Where is the Khan?! Tell me the truth, and I'll give you a quick death."
The city lord swallowed his saliva, knowing that he was powerless to save the situation, and completely lost his fighting spirit: "Go north thirty miles."
