Chapter 198: War
Chapter 198: War
When Fate fell into the trap, Shui Ling had already assembled his men. The archers were ready on the city wall, and the soldiers were waiting at the city gate with weapons in hand.
As soon as Fate fell into the second trap, they would open the city gate and rush out to attack the Fate soldiers.
On Fate's side, since falling into the trap, everyone has been much more careful on the rest of the journey.
To be on the safe side, Qiao Lingqi even sent soldiers to investigate to see if there were any traps ahead.
Xuanyuan Xingyao had anticipated this long ago, so he set up the second trap about one or two hundred meters away from the city gate, which was very close.
No second trap was found along the way, and the soldiers who were investigating thought there were no more traps, so they gradually relaxed their vigilance when they were about to reach Yangcheng.
"Marshal, everything is normal up front."
After the soldier investigated, he ran back and reported to Qiao Lingqi.
Because they had basically not encountered any traps along the way, Qiao Lingqi did not doubt the soldier's words.
Seeing that they were almost reaching Yangcheng, Qiao Linqi waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to start attacking the city.
“Charge!!!”
Following the captains' loud shouts, all the soldiers began to rush forward with their weapons raised, preparing to break down the door.
But just as they were about to reach the city gate, the familiar sound of the ground collapsing was heard again.
Some of the faster soldiers simply fell to the ground and rolled away to avoid the attack.
But some were slow or were already in the center of the trap and couldn't escape, so they fell directly into the trap.
The trap was still filled with earth spikes, but there were not as many earth spikes as in the previous trap, so at least most people were not injured.
Although they didn't know why the number of earth spikes in the trap had decreased, the soldiers were so surprised that they didn't think about it at all.
They climbed up hard, trying to escape the trap as soon as possible.
But before they could climb out of the trap, several arrows with fireballs fell from the sky. The arrows fell into the trap and instantly ignited the soldiers' clothes.
This fireball seemed to be soaked in kerosene, and the fire spread very quickly.
In addition, the soldiers were in panic, shouting wildly in the trap and even running around.
The fire spread directly to the other soldiers who were not hit by the arrows.
Some soldiers even climbed up because of the severe pain and began to run frantically into the pile of soldiers, causing the surrounding soldiers to scatter quickly, fearing that they would also be contaminated by the raging flames.
"Keep shooting."
The general on the city wall saw that Fit's army was completely in disarray, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he signaled the archers to continue shooting.
The azure sky turned fiery red again, and then the fiery red color fell vertically and landed among the army.
"Everyone, calm down. Don't run around. Stay in formation. Stay in formation."
The general on Fate's side, seeing that the team was in complete chaos, shouted loudly, trying to calm the soldiers down.
But the soldiers, who were burned by the flames and in unbearable pain, could not hear the general's words. They rolled back and forth on the ground frantically, hoping to put out the fire on their bodies.
The army in the city had been waiting for this moment. After receiving the signal from the city wall, the tightly closed city gate was finally opened. General Mao and Xuanyuan Xingyao were the first to rush out on horseback.
They rushed straight into the enemy army and started fighting.
When Qiao Linqi saw the actions of Xuanyuan Xingyao, General Mao and others, he knew that they had fallen into a trap again.
Qiao Lingqi, who had no time to get angry, quickly made adjustments, asking the soldiers to find a way to isolate the soldiers who were on fire, and then asked the remaining soldiers to quickly gather and regain their formation.
From the moment the soldiers fell into the trap, to the fireballs falling from the sky, to the soldiers wailing with fire, to General Mao and Xuanyuan Xingyao leading the team out of the city, it seemed like a long time had passed, but in fact it only took a few minutes.
Therefore, when Qiao Lingqi reacted and wanted to re-form the soldiers, General Mao and Xuanyuan Xingyao had already led a part of their troops and charged into the Fate army.
The already scattered team became even more disorganized, even though the captains kept calling out to their soldiers.
Even though Qiao Lingqi and several deputy generals tried to regroup the soldiers, they were helpless.
Qiao Linqi looked at the completely chaotic army, and then at Xuanyuan Xingyao and General Mao who were constantly reaping the lives of the soldiers. His faces were so gloomy that ink could almost drip out of them.
At this time, Qiao Linqi no longer cared about whether he would accidentally hurt his own people. He directly ordered the magicians to release their ultimate skills collectively, and then led the warriors to fight back.
When the magicians began to chant, Xuanyuan Xingyao and General Mao's expressions also changed.
The reason why they kept fighting for the initiative was not because of the unique tacit understanding on Fate's side.
The magicians collectively released the might of their ultimate moves. Xuanyuan Xingyao had never experienced it, but General Mao had.
Recalling the time when he almost died, General Mao shouted loudly to Xuanyuan Xingyao.
"We must find a way to interrupt their chanting and absolutely not let them successfully cast their magic."
"Let our gold magicians release their radiant light to form a shield to protect the ordinary soldiers. Then have Xiao Jing release the Snow Dragon Ape. I'll leave this to you. I'll see if I can disrupt their chanting."
Xuanyuan Xingyao thought quickly in his mind, and then said to General Mao.
"Okay, leave this to me."
General Mao agreed without hesitation.
Xuanyuan Xingyao jumped up from the horse's back and flew into the air towards the magicians at the back.
"Go and protect the magicians quickly and stop Xuanyuan Xingyao for me."
As soon as Qiao Linqi saw the direction of Xuanyuan Xingyao, he guessed that he was going to disrupt the magicians' chanting, and hurriedly called the soldiers in the team to protect the magicians.
The reason why magicians are fragile is because their bodies are not strong enough. Small magic is fine and can be cast instantly as long as they are well trained, but large magic must be chanted and cannot be interrupted.
If the chanting is interrupted, you have to start over again, and you may even suffer backlash and vomit blood.
This is also the reason why there were few magicians on the battlefield in the past. The magicians' large-scale magic was invincible on the battlefield. Didn't anyone know that?
But every time a magician goes to the battlefield, he will be targeted by the enemy. It can be said that as long as the war breaks out, the magician will be the first to die.
Therefore, after setting off, Qiao Linqi protected all the magicians at the back of the team. If the enemy wanted to kill them, they had to cross the entire line of defense of the troops.
However, Qiao Linqi did not expect that he would meet Xuanyuan Xingyao, who did not play by the rules and attacked him directly from mid-air.
Fortunately, Qiao Linqi reacted quickly and immediately asked the warriors to protect the magicians.
Before Xuanyuan Xingyao arrived, he was stopped by several men in tight-fitting clothes.
The men's realms were lower than Xuanyuan Xingyao's, but they were more numerous. Although they could not defeat Xuanyuan Xingyao, they still entangled him.
Xuanyuan Xingyao saw that the magicians' chanting was coming to an end, and it would be too late if he didn't stop them.
So he used the method of injuring himself to break through the warriors' defense line and came to the front of the magicians.
The magicians looked at Xuanyuan Xingyao who raised the Star Sword and was ready to attack them. Cold sweat involuntarily flowed from their foreheads. The speed at which they chanted the spell became faster and they soon finished the last few words.
Xuanyuan Xingyao saw the magic wands in the magicians' hands burst out with amazing light, and then golden light fell from the sky to the ground like lightning.
Xuanyuan Xingyao and General Mao had the gold magicians on their side prepared and set up a protective wall with magic.
Nangong Jing also summoned the Snow Dragon Ape and asked it to exert its maximum defense to protect the soldiers behind it.
But the Silver-Copper Arrow Rain is a large-scale magic, and only a high-level magician can use it.
A high-level magician can kill hundreds of people with a rain of silver and copper arrows, not to mention a dozen high-level magicians working together. One can imagine the power of this.
Therefore, even though the gold magician on Shui Ling's side cast the Radiant Light to protect many soldiers, the rain of silver and bronze arrows still seriously injured or even killed many soldiers.
Of course, it wasn't just their side. Many soldiers on Fate's side were also accidentally injured.
There was no way. As soon as Xuanyuan Xingyao and his men left the city, they directly broke up Fate's soldier formation, and the two sides were completely mixed together.
If you want to use large-scale magic to deal with Shui Ling and Long Ying, it will be impossible to avoid casualties on Fate's side.
After casting the rain of silver and bronze arrows, the magicians wanted to cast other large-scale magic.
But this time, Xuanyuan Xingyao did not give them the chance to start chanting.
His right hand flew, and a sword light burst out from the sword and fell on the magicians.
Protected by magic robes, the magicians were not seriously injured, but they would not be able to cast large-scale magic again in a short period of time.
The warriors who had just gone to intercept Xuanyuan Xingyao saw that Xuanyuan Xingyao had injured the magicians, and they all ran over and surrounded and intercepted Xuanyuan Xingyao.
Xuanyuan Xingyao also knew that it was almost impossible for him to kill all the magicians.
So after injuring someone, he flew back directly into the air without getting entangled with those soldiers at all.
After the rain of silver and bronze arrows, both sides suffered heavy casualties, but no one stopped fighting. Instead, they became even more ferocious.
Nangong Jing summoned all the monsters to join the battle and began to entangle the officers on Fate's side, preventing them from having the chance to kill the soldiers.
Qiao Linqi saw that Nangong Jing had killed many monsters and injured many soldiers.
"Find a way to tie up Nangong Jing and don't give him the chance to join the battlefield."
Qiao Lynch gave orders to the magicians.
Although the magicians were injured by Xuanyuan Xingyao and could not cast large-scale magic, they had no problem entangling Nangong Jing.
Just when Nangong Jing was about to ask Yan to get rid of a general, he saw several magicians escorted by several soldiers appear around him, obviously coming for him.
Nangong Jing looked around warily, then used his mental power to summon his monsters.
Yan was the first to appear. It abandoned the general that was about to be bitten to death by it and appeared in front of Nangong Jing after a few jumps.
He protected Nangong Jing firmly behind him and roared at the magicians fiercely. Author's words: Thank you Bole 9492239 (9492239) for your support. If you want to know more exciting content, please leave me a message on Liancheng Reading.
