Chapter 393 Siege

"They just calculated that you will definitely redeem people. Second brother, what are you going to do?"

It was inconvenient to speak in the hall, and the two walked out of the hall. The night was vast, the stars were shining, and the mountain breeze stroked the hair. Xiao Ranyun forced the alcohol out, stood in the wind, and tried to make himself awake. Don't panic now, it's really over.

"To tell you the truth, the three strange stone, gluttonous stone and blue dragon stone are in my hands, and it is not enough to take them all out. The other few can only try to find a way. Very stupid, isn't it? Even if you know it's a trap set by Qianyu Building, you have to drill into it.

Yang Fan shook his head slightly and said, "Do you know why I worshipped you at the beginning? Even if so many things have happened, I have never thought of giving up. Because you value righteousness and are not hypocritical. I would rather let others fail you than let others down first. Although he is good at calculating, he never has to do it on his friends. The longer I spend with you, the more I can feel this. It's very simple. There are few people in the world who can do it. I am very grateful and cherish this emotion. So no matter what you decide, the eldest brother will accompany you to go crazy to the end.

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Big brother praised me so much. I also want to live a simpler life. The situation in the world is doomed to be impossible. If you really need a villain to change the current situation, let me do it."

Yang Fan said, "When you were framed by Qian Yulou, the three major factions of Wulin League and Magic Road chased you and almost died several times. In the Junshan War, it was already benevolent and righteous to help regardless of the past. No matter how much they did, they may not appreciate it. Why bother to be this injustice now?

Xiao Ran said, "Who can explain these grievances clearly? They are just chess pieces used by Qian Yulou to play games. There is always a need for a few fools in the world to stand up and save the world. Although the current situation is not directly caused by me, I'm afraid it is not related. I'm an orphan and have lived a difficult and humiliated life. I don't want more people to be like me.

Yang Fan calculated: "The white tiger stone is in the hands of the third brother-in-law, so it should not be difficult to borrow it. Chaos Stone is in the hands of Ren Xiaoyao. You can try it. The rosefinch stone in Xia Shuangtian's hand must be hopeless. Anyway, there is still one missing. Their purpose is the seven-star stone. Ye Ningxue and Xia Ruoyeng will not be in danger of their lives for the time being.

"Now we can only take one step at a time. We can't let the other party lead our nose all the time. Maybe it's time to fight back..."

Since ancient imperial states, Chang'an has been favored by successive emperors since ancient times due to various strategic and economic conveniences. Chang'an City is located in the Weihe Plain, with Hangu Pass in the east, Dasan Pass in the west, Wu Pass in the south, and Xiao Pass in the north. It is within the four gates, so it is called "Guanzhong".

The four pass is led by the Hangu Pass. It was built by the Qin people during the Warring States Period. It is bordered by the Yellow River in the north, the mountains in the south, and more than 100 miles from east to west. The road is opened in the cracks of the fractured mountains and stones. "Cars are not allowed to be square tracks, and horses are not allowed to ride together". There is the danger of "one man is the gate, and ten thousand people can't open it". His real name is Hangu Pass. Later, it was later renamed Tongguan. It is this dangerous place where soldiers must compete, making Chang'an City as stable as Mount Tai and repeatedly avoiding the war outside the customs.

Outside the Hangu Pass, 100,000 troops of the Xia family are ready to go. Xia Shuangtian, dressed in armor, stood on the slope, looking at the tide-like army of the Xia family.

"The faint king is in power, and the treacherous ministers of the imperial court are in power. Our Xia family has been loyal for generations, and now they have been repeatedly framed and almost destroyed. The rear of the vassal kings of all walks of life are besieged, and now there is no way out, only a fight. Would you like to go on an expedition with this general to kill the treacherous minister and kill the king!"

"Vow allegiance to the general!" The soldiers said in unison, and their voices were deaf and loud.

Xia Shuangtian pulled out his sword and pointed to the direction of Hangu Pass and said, "Let's go!"

"Dong Dong..."

The drums sounded, and the wind roared, raising the dust all over the sky. In the sound of the army shouting and killing, they attacked the Hangu Pass. At the end of the Hangu Pass, Wu Yuxi looked at the enemy outside the customs with a sneer and said, "Have you been forced by the army of various vassal kings? Now it's too late to do it. If there is still a chance half a month ago, Xia Shuangtian, you are really old."

"General, the Xia family's dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the Black Armor Army took the lead. This wave of offensive is very severe." An adjutant said.

Wu Yuxi commanded: "General Zheng and General Yan, you go to the command on both sides. Guo Yang will move out all the prepared sharp weapons. The rest of the people perform their respective duties and give them a head-on blow!"

"Pray!" The archer bends his bow and builds an arrow, and there is no need to aim at all. As long as this dense army shoots, it will be hit. The shield soldiers in the first few rows of the Xia family raised their shields and continued to move forward, with slight damage.

"Sprinkle oil and launch rockets!" Arrow feathers are flying all over the sky. There was an immediate sea of fire under the city.

"General Wu, things have been shipped." Deputy General Guo Yangdao. Frames covered with coarse cloth were pushed out.

"Good!"

Wu Yuxi's eyes flashed with excitement, pulling off the coarse cloth, revealing huge crossbows and catapults. This huge crossbow uses a special arrow pole, which can pierce even horses, let alone ordinary soldiers. The stone throwing machine is extremely lethal. Several boulders are tied together. After being thrown out, the rope automatically disperses under the action of inertia. It is not only lethal, but also covers a wide range. It is the latest weapon developed by the imperial court. Both siege and defense are very useful. Because Hangu Pass is very important, the second son of the Wu family also supervised the array in person.

"launched" Wu Yuxi sneered, as if he had seen the scene of the Xia family's defeat.

"Wo! Oh! "..." A series of empty-breaking sounds sounded, and as the mechanism rose and fell, countless crossbows and boulders were launched. Even if the Xia soldiers raised the shield in their hands, it was still useless and could only slow down the speed of the crossbow. Like a skewer of meat, it penetrated five or six times in a row to stop. The boulder is even more horrible, and if you want to hit it again, it will be a meat pie. And I don't know when it will fall. At the same time, I have to rush forward and guard against these sharp weapons. The trend of forward attack immediately slowed down.

The swaying firelight, the sharp arrows like falling rain, the roar of the boulder landing, the sound of shouting pain... everywhere is full of chaos. Hangu Pass is so small that it can't accommodate too many people to pass at the same time. Some people keep falling down, and some people make up for their positions. Even under such a dense offensive, the Xia family's army is still advancing slowly.

"General, the soldiers were killed and injured badly." A battalion commander covered with blood said.

"There is no way out now. These sharp weapons are all long-range things. As long as they can rush under the wall, these things will not be useful. Attack!" Xia Shuangtian looked at the scorching sun in the sky, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. It was time.

Wu Yuxi looked at the enemy troops in the city and sneered, "It's really stubborn. I'll see if your bodies can build a ladder."
