The action of the 6,000 Yulin Army was very powerful. When they approached the Zhengyang Palace, the guards of the third prince Zhou Jian had already received the news and were waiting in formation.
At this moment, the sky is getting light and the light of dawn appears in the sky!
The Royal Guards' shield and spear formation was in front, and the arrow formation was in the back, defending the front like a human wall.
Wang Xiaohai led the generals and 6,000 soldiers of the Yulin Army to stop outside the range of the enemy's bows and arrows. The enemy beat drums in protest, and the sound was deafening!
Guan Zeyuan also wanted to beat the drum, but Wang Xiaohai stopped him: "Wait until the enemy beats the drum for the third time, then we will beat the drum and charge in. Prepare some special oil bottles, they will be useful later."
Unexpectedly, the enemy's Imperial Guards commander, Jia Libo, the Third Prince's uncle, was also a clever man. After seeing that the Yulin Army in front of him hadn't beaten the drums, he reached out to stop the Imperial Guards' drummers from beating any more, and shouted to Wang Xiaohai, "The first drum beat is a powerful one; the second is weaker, and the third is exhaustion. I know this principle too. I originally wanted to trick you into beating the drums, but I didn't expect you to fall for it."
"We are not stupid! If you surrender now, we can still spare your life!" Guan Zeyuan signaled the messenger to pass the message on.
Then a few noisy messengers repeated General Guan Zeyuan's words, which made Commander Jia Libo very angry.
"Zhou Shuyi, I advise you to stop making trouble and go back home obediently. When the third prince ascends the throne, you can continue to be a princess. Otherwise, you will die without a complete body!" The messenger of the Imperial Guard conveyed the words of Commander Jia Libo.
"It seems that both sides are unwilling to surrender and want to fight." Wang Xiaohai sighed.
It was impossible for him to surrender, but he didn't expect that the other party was also tough - but this was normal. After all, the number of the Imperial Guards was more than twice that of the Yulin Army on Wang Xiaohai's side. If they attacked directly, the Yulin Army would probably not be able to stop them.
"Is there a magical bow?" Wang Xiaohai asked Guan Zeyuan and others behind him.
"I'll go look for it." General Guan Zeyuan did not ask Wang Xiaohai what he was doing with the bow, because it was obvious that he was going to shoot the enemy general. He did not dare to confirm whether there was a magical bow in his Yulin Army, so he could only go look for it.
"No need to look for it, we have it in the princess's mansion." said the two guards Heilin and Heisen.
"Should we send someone to get it now?" General Guan Zeyuan said, "Even if we go on horseback, it will take several hours to go back and forth. I'm afraid by the time we get it, the battle will be over."
"It's okay. I've been prepared for a long time." The two black-clad guards said, "When the Yulin soldiers notified us, we knew there would be a battle, and the divine bow has been carried by two palace soldiers." After he said that, he signaled the two palace soldiers carrying the divine bow in the back to come in.
"I remember!" Princess Shu said when she saw the two palace soldiers carrying bows. "This bow is a treasure of my mother's family. It's called the Star Chaser. The limbs are made of thousand-year-old wood, and the bowstring is made of the tendons of a rhinoceros dragon monster. No ordinary person can pull it."
"Rhino dragon monster?" It was the first time that Wang Xiaohai heard of such a monster, but this was the Xuanyuan Continent, which was different from his hometown, so it was not surprising to see new species.
"The Star-Chasing Bow does require a lot of strength." The two black-clad guards said, "We have to work together and try our best to pull it halfway." Although it is only halfway pulled, it can shoot a very long distance, worthy of being called a Star-Chasing Bow.
Wang Xiaohai and the two palace soldiers took the Star Chaser Bow from their backs. Suddenly, a huge force came over him, as if it would break his hand. It seemed that the bow was extremely heavy! He took a step forward, steadying himself to prevent himself from falling.
"Are there any arrows?" Wang Xiaohai continued to ask.
Soon, a soldier from the Yulin Army brought a tube of fine steel arrows, each arrow was about one meter long, and the soldier presented it with both hands.
Wang Xiaohai pulled out a fine steel arrow, put it on the string, grasped the bow arm with his left hand, and used the index finger and middle finger of his right hand to pull the bowstring at the same time, and the Star-Chasing Bow was quickly pulled to its full length.
Wang Xiaohai squinted one eye and aimed at Jia Libo, the commander of the imperial guards in the distance. He loosened his right fingers, and the arrow flew out with a "swoosh" sound, and the bowstring made a "dong" sound of tension.
Wang Xiaohai's arrow did not fly in a parabolic trajectory like ordinary arrows, but shot straight towards the commander of the imperial guards. It can be seen that the power of this arrow is extremely great!
"Commander, you are in danger!" A guard of the Imperial Guard standing next to the commander of the Imperial Guard held a small round shield in his hand in front of Jia Libo.
"Bang!" The small round shield shattered into pieces in an instant, and the fine steel arrow continued to fly towards Jia Libo's heart without slowing down.
A thin and narrow soft sword stabbed over and entangled the fine steel sword, causing countless sparks to burst out, and the sword and arrow broke at the same time.
It was Lan Ze who saved Jia Libo.
Lan Ze and Tang Ke arrived at the same time, and they arrived just in time. If they were half a second later, the commander of the Royal Guards would have been dead!
"Thank you Master Lan Ze for saving my life!" Jia Libo's face turned pale. He didn't expect that someone in the enemy army could shoot an arrow at such a long distance, and with such great power!
"Be careful, the guy shooting the arrows is stronger than both of us." Lan Ze reminded Commander Jia Libo, "Hide behind the shield and don't show your head!"
"Is this guy really so powerful?" Jia Libo squatted down hurriedly, his tone full of doubt, because he had seen Master Lan Ze's martial arts, and he knocked him down with just one move!
"It's more powerful than you think!" Tang Ke replied. He thought that if he had not been suppressed and became a mortal, the opponent could destroy the Zhou Kingdom with just a finger!
Wang Xiaohai nocked three more arrows and simultaneously drew his bow, shooting at the three deputy commanders of the Imperial Guards wearing golden helmets.
"Bang—"
The Star-Chasing Bow was extremely powerful. The heart guards of the three deputy commanders were shattered, and the arrows continued to pierce through their bodies, nailing them to the ground.
Several screams were heard from the guards, causing a small chaos.
Wang Xiaohai continued to draw his bow.
"Everyone charge, otherwise after he shoots all the generals, there will be no one to command!" Lan Ze shouted to the imperial guards.
