Chapter 558 The Power of Vines
Near the customs, Lao Dao has asked the prefect Fang Hu to mobilize all the strong men in the territory to defend the border. Daizhou is close to the Wu tribe. The folk customs here are strong and strong. Many young and middle-aged men are not weak in strength, and they are all brave enough to kill and do anything.
Especially in the past few years, after the Black Flag Army stationed in Daizhou, the Wu Clan army was repeatedly defeated here, which gradually made these big men more courageous, and they dared to kill the dead with their weapons.
Therefore, after receiving the mobilization order from Prefect Fang and General Dao, more than 100,000 young and strong men quickly gathered in Linhai City. Even Fang Hu, a timid guy, stood on the high platform and started doing it.
Mobilization efforts before the war.
Fang Hu's greasy face, filled with fat, kept trembling. He didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or excitement. He kept waving his hands, his voice was high and his words were so impassioned that he attracted a group of people below who were full of enthusiasm.
The young man with the military dream is in high spirits and gearing up, ready to go out and kill the enemy at any time.
On the other side, some army lieutenants were organizing these people into groups, and then specialized personnel gave them brief training. These temporarily mobilized militiamen were a reserve force. Once the casualties on the front line were too great, these people could at least withstand for a while.
Now Lao Dao can only hope that reinforcements from the East China Sea will arrive soon.
The Gu Eagle Knights outside the pass have almost gathered. Some generals are leading their teams in formation. The gray-brown land can be seen under their feet. The snow that is as deep as a person has been cleared away by these Gu Eagle Knights.
On both sides of the cavalry team were large piles of snow.
Without the obstruction of snow, the Gu carvings walked particularly vigorously on the muddy soil. Some of the Gu carving knights standing at the front seemed unable to suppress the restlessness in their hearts. They rode the Gu carvings back and forth along the city wall and jumped from time to time.
Lao Gao stretched his neck and looked behind the city wall, full of provocation.
A lot of arrangements have been made on the city wall and in the city. Lao Dao now has no hope of retreating from the enemy. Facing such a large number of powerful troops, it will be a matter of time before the city falls. He has only one purpose, and that is to try to delay as much time as possible.
The sun was rising, and after a night of preparations, both sides seemed to have made preparations for the war. Perhaps it was God's favor. The heavy snow stopped today and shed a ray of golden sunshine on the earth, so that the soldiers of both sides would not brave the wind and snow.
Fight.
Several dull but penetrating war drums sounded, and bursts of loud cries like babies' cries came from the army of Gu Eagles, which were loud but had a sense of eeriness.
A moment later, the second drum sounded, and the vanguard of the Gu Diao Cavalry began to advance slowly. The Gu Diao seemed to be particularly excited after hearing the sound of the drums, and its legs were eager to jump at any time, ready to jump up the city wall and start killing.
The old sword was as motionless as a mountain. The Black Flag Army on the city wall stared closely at the Gu Eagle Knight below. At this time, it seemed that everyone had entered a fighting state and had forgotten their fear. Their finger joints looked a little shaky due to too much exertion.
white.
The three drums sounded, and the vanguard army began to charge. The Gu Diao and the knights simultaneously let out a strange cry and charged towards Linhaiguan.
The ground was shaking, the city walls were shaking, and even the ice that had been poured with water began to crack. The violent roar almost deafened everyone's ears.
Lao Dao slowly drew out his broadsword and looked at the Gu Eagle Cavalry approaching quickly outside the city. He kept thinking in his mind. He was waiting for the right time to wait until these guys got close before making a decision.
A smelly smell mixed with snow foam rushed towards the city wall. Lao Dao had not yet ordered the attack. When he could clearly see the mask of the knight rushing at the front, Lao Dao swung the sword in his hand downwards!
Suddenly, countless tripping ropes appeared under the feet of these Gu Eagle Knights. These tripping ropes were not made of ropes, but were made of strong vines with poisonous stings on them. They not only tripped the Gu Eagles rushing in front to the ground, but also made them fall to the ground.
The sharp and venomous spikes quickly penetrated the knights' bodies.
These vines are the work of the special team in Lao Dao's hands. Long before the battle with Kongwen Cave, Lao Dao had formed a special army composed of personnel with the ability to tame animals. When he was in Minshan City,
The Black Widow team under his command made great achievements by trying their skills in the forest.
Lao Dao, who has tasted the benefits, has increased his investment in this area. These vines are the pet beasts of some of the soldiers in his hands. However, these pet beasts are a little special. They are all plant-based. Because they have beast cores, they can also be classified as savage beasts.
.
The enemy's three drums sounded, and the army had begun to charge. When they arrived in front of the city gate, the momentum of the charge could no longer be stopped. At this time, Lao Dao ordered the vine beasts that had been lurking outside the city to be dispatched at the same time and beat them.
The Gu carving army was caught off guard.
The fall of the army in front caused a chain reaction of the troops in the rear. Countless knights had no time to stop the momentum of the charge, and hit the brothers in front heavily. Before they could wake up from the trap, their assholes were covered again.
The people behind him exploded, and a series of collisions brought wails all over the sky.
After the Gu eagles tripped over these vines, their bodies were severely injured. Their necks were broken, their legs or wings were injured, and they lay on the ground wailing in pain. The knights on their backs had long since disappeared. They had been knocked down just now.
He was thrown far away and fell heavily.
Some of the fastest guys were thrown into the air and rolled a few times because they were too fast, and then hit the city wall heavily. The Black Flag Army officers above took a deep breath and stood up for the knight.
I feel pain.
It's just that those unlucky guys didn't even have time to scream, and their bodies were smashed into a pile of flesh that couldn't be seen. Naturally, they didn't feel any pain.
These guys who died on the spot were actually quite lucky. Some of the unlucky guys either had broken arms or broken legs, and their internal organs were definitely injured. In such a severe cold weather, the only way to survive such a serious injury is
I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult, and I'm afraid I will have to endure a lot of painful torture before dying slowly.
There seems to be hope for life, but in fact there is darkness ahead. This feeling can make people collapse!
These vines themselves are good at hiding. After taking root in the ground and hiding, how could those Gu Eagle Knights discover them? And just when the Gu Eagle Army was surrounded, these guys took advantage of the situation and used poisonous spikes to assassinate many Gu Eagle Knights.
After the former military commander reorganized his army, he took a little inventory and found that his face was as dark as pig liver. Just because of these vines, his army lost nearly a thousand people, which made him so angry that he almost vomited blood!
What's more, what makes his chest tight is that those damn vines disappeared underground after they did their bad deeds. If he wanted to take revenge, he couldn't find an opponent. He felt dissatisfied with his desires and felt very dissatisfied.
The war drums sounded again, and the former army commander gritted his teeth and cursed: "When I rush into the city, I must massacre the entire Linhai City!"
The Gu Eagle Knight charged again. The fallen companions in front had already been moved aside, and the injured Gu Eagles were also cleared away. The huge roar sounded again, and the Gu Eagles began to spread their wings, which was a sign that they began to glide.
Chapter completed!
