Chapter 50 Battle

The siege began suddenly, and 50,000 monks held Zen sticks, magic swords, shields and other weapons, and the waves of the rising tide swept towards the pass suddenly. The siege began naturally because they had gathered outside the pass for a long time, and the soldiers of the Guiyi army at the critical moment had already been prepared for the war.

The sun shines brightly in the sky, and the sun is bright in the fields. The rolling smoke and dust are tumbling at the feet of the monks who are out of sight. They are yellow mud, sand and sea waves, without any exaggeration.

The city gate was trembling, and fine dust spread half an inch on the rammed earth wall, and strands of fine sand fell down.

Not only Yangguan is trembling, but also the land outside the pass is the same. The neat footsteps overwhelmed the sound of war drums, like thunder, and as soon as they were faced, they drilled straight into their minds through their ears.

Six hundred steps are the coverage of the crossbow shooting. Without marking the location, the generals and officers in the middle section of Qi training on the city wall can accurately judge the position of this line based on their eyes alone. When the front queue of monk soldiers passed through this line, their expressions were as iron as iron and their eyes were like swords. Suddenly, Qiyun Dantian opened his mouth and shouted loudly.

"Bed crossbow, launch!"

At the majestic and wide front of Yangguan City, there were no less than fifty bed crossbows. As the loud shout came, the soldiers who controlled the bed crossbows smashed the hammers in their hands on the bed crossbow machine.

Buzz! The muffled sound of the crossbow string is fierce and heavy. After the huge crossbow arrow flew out from the arrow groove, the crossbow string still trembled violently in a small range. The low-frequency sound waves spread out, dispelling a lot of footsteps from outside the city. When it falls into the ears, it makes people's mind tremble.

Even in Li Ye's sight, the trajectory of the crossbow arrows seizing the sky flashed away. The monk soldiers rushing in front, even with the shield in their hands, their bodies still suddenly flew backwards! The crossbow arrows pierced through the shield in their hands, pierced through their chests, and the huge force led them to knock over their companions behind them.

Among them, there are ten crossbow arrows, which emit a dazzling light in the route, like a meteor falling from the sky. The light feather tail was dragged long, but it went away hundreds of steps in the blink of an eye. The monk soldiers blocked their route burst into pieces of blood mist and connected into strings, which was very beautiful.

Each blood mist was an explosion of a body, and the comet-like light feather broke into the formation for more than ten steps, then the light dissipated, revealing the original appearance of the crossbow arrow. The crossbow arrow had not yet ended, and when the chest was nailed to the chest of a monk soldier, it almost burst out from the back at the same time, and then strung the monk soldier behind it on the crossbow arrow.

A dazzling crossbow arrow killed nearly ten monk soldiers, and the monk soldiers who exploded from their bodies did not even have time to scream. The monk soldiers were strung together by the crossbow arrows inserted into the ground, and the faces were confused and terrified, as if they were carved, and they did not disappear until the end.

The originally neat queue revealed a jagged gap in an instant.

However, like waves in the sea, these small gaps were filled with surging sea water in a blink of an eye until the next wave of crossbow arrows arrived.

The generals and schoolmen roared again on the top of the city wall. This time, not only was the bed crossbow showing its power, but more than 200 Fuyuan crossbows with a range of 450 steps also joined the battle ranks with anger.

The monks who rushed to the front fell down in an instant, and their queues were very dense, which would have a great impact when they caught the city, but at this time it made the crossbow arrows almost completely fired. In the hands of monks, even heavy crossbows like Fuyuan Crossbow can exert their ability to shoot accurately.

The monks' corps were extremely fast, and the physical fitness of the monks was not comparable to that of ordinary troops. The bodies that fell from the front team were quickly submerged in the crowd and the yellow dust, and there was no trace of them anymore. Even if the teams all ran past, there was no corpse on the ground, only scarlet "flowers", which were still eye-catching on the loess.

When the endless bald head approaches more than a hundred steps in front of the city, the sound of the strings of the city passes like thunder, and arrows and crossbows are densely packed like locusts. The closer the distance, the greater the power of the crossbow. At this time, even if it is just a horned crossbow, it can easily tear the shield. The crossbow of Fuyuan Crossbow can directly tear the body of a low-level monk.

The crossbows of magic weapons truly revealed their hideous fangs at this moment. The green feathers of light flew past the low altitude, like dragons coming out of the sea. The monk soldiers blocking the range route were cleared out dozens of steps in a row. Blood filled this gap and left a straight red line on the ground.

At this time, there were no monk soldiers below the fourth level of Qi training. They dared to stand in front of the crossbow of crossbows. Under active or passive actions, ten gullies appeared in the crowd. The cultivators' movement power was not comparable to ordinary soldiers, and the ten lines were as straight as if they had been measured by a ruler.

However, among the large number of scarlet corpses, these ten gullies did not appear neat, but were filled with indescribable treacherous meanings, such as strange witchcraft performed by evil demons.

Even ordinary strong bows and crossbows are extremely lethal at this time because they are magic weapons themselves. In the white monks' corps under the heavy rain, the bodies that exploded or fell down appeared countless red flowers in the white ocean, adding a lot of charm to the picture.

Peng Zushan shouted with his red neck, allowing the monks to quickly move the crossbow to the position, and place it in a new position through simple fixtures, and continue to play the huge role of its mass destructive magic weapon.

Around each magic crossbow, there is a complete team of monks who assume the guard duty to ensure that in the subsequent battles, the magic crossbow will not be captured or destroyed. Therefore, as long as there are enemies in front of the pass, they will not stop roaring.

Li Ye pulled out Lu Jujian.

Although the rear team of the Monks' Corps was still hundreds of steps away, the front team had already reached the city. No matter how majestic and wide the city wall was, it was just a thin embankment in front of this surging white-clothed ocean, as if it would be swallowed by the spreading sea water in the next moment.

The first monk soldier who jumped to the top of the city and appeared in front of Li Ye, had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, was more than nine feet tall, with a dark face, as if he was walking an iron tower.

He saw Li Ye at first sight, and his eyes were suddenly full of fierceness. Relying on his middle-level cultivation level of Qi training, he roared, and the demon-subduing shovel in his hand smashed Li Ye's head with a cold light.

There is not only one such monk soldier, but a group of people.

In fact, this is the soldiers who are trapped in the monks' corps in front of them. They are responsible for the task of attacking first, and will jump to the city head after approaching the city wall, relying on their outstanding cultivation and fierce momentum to kill all directions, striving to gain a foothold at the city head and respond to more monks coming to the city behind.

It can be seen that even among the soldiers who are trapped in the formation, the monk soldier in front of Li Ye is a person like a small leader. If he meets an ordinary soldier or an ordinary general, he might gain the results he wants to win.

Unfortunately, he met Li Ye now.

When Lu Jujian swept out, the pattern on the sword body did not light up, which shows that Li Ye had no intention of using the dragon power of its superb magic weapon, but just treated it as a simple weapon. Even so, Lu Jujian still cut off the demon-subduing shovel in lightning, cut open the monk soldier's neck, and separated his body.

The fallen monk soldiers, whether they were the demon-slaughtering shovels or the blood-spraying neck, had a smooth incision like a mirror.

The monk soldiers rushed up to the battlefield. Li Ye held one hand behind him, holding the sword in one hand. Even though he did not deliberately use his powerful cultivation and did not use any sword style, each sword was swung out, and he was still so fast that he could not see any trace.

In front of his agile steps and body movements, whether it is the monk soldiers climbing the city or the soldiers who leaped up directly, they will fly across the head as soon as they emerge. Sometimes more than a dozen blood streams soar into the sky, forming a fountain-like scene in front of him.

There is only Li Ye in this section of the city.

Of course he didn't need help. Whether it was an ordinary soldier or an ordinary general, standing by his side, he could only get in the way. Li Xian and Chu Nanhuai, the master and apprentice of Master Li Xian. If the areas they were responsible for were added together, they would be nearly half of the length of the wall.

Here, there was no crossbow to help with the battle, and the killing of the enemy was only based on the sword in his hand.

In this way, Yangguan's limited garrison forces were effectively concentrated together, greatly stabilizing the situation of the battle.

Soon, Li Ye's body movements running around the top of the city were so fast that he could not even see the afterimage. Blood lights flew up behind him one after another, continuing. As for the screams, there was no such thing as the monks' soldiers. Under his sword, all their heads were cut off, and the screams were not too late.

However, although Li Ye’s subordinates did not have a single enemy, and taking the enemy’s head was as easy as cutting leeks, it could not withstand the speed of leeks sprouting too quickly. Even though Li Ye deliberately controlled the consumption of spiritual energy, because the area in charge was really not small, the spiritual energy was still passing through at a sensible speed.

"There is only one winning method for you and I to guard Yangguan, which is to exert the effect of every trace of spiritual energy to the extreme."

Before the war started, Li Xian once said to Li Ye like this, "Fifty thousand monks are all monks. It is impossible to stop them from taking over the city. It is not realistic to stop them from climbing to the city. It is destined to be unable to defend Yangguan by the soldiers of Guiyi Army in this battle. The battle between our father and son and the master and disciple of Bailu Cave is the only factor in determining the outcome, and whether the spiritual energy in our body can support the repelling of the monk soldiers is the only key to the victory or defeat of the war."

Li Ye agrees with every word that Li Xian said.

If this is an ordinary war, Li Ye only needs to break into the army with the cooperation of Nangong First and others and kill the enemy commander, and basically win the war. He has this ability, there is no doubt.

However, the current war is not an ordinary war.

The opponent is a monk from the Shimen, a white-clothed monks' corps, so this is of course a religious war. In the face of this form of war, it is meaningless to kill the opponent's commander. Not to mention that the opponent's commander has not been exposed now, it is even very likely that there is no such existence in the monk soldier in front of him.

Even if there is, if the commander is killed, there will be a deputy commander, a deputy commander, and a general, and a general, any Qi training cultivator with the highest cultivation level will become the commander of the army.

The fidelity of religious people and the fanaticism of religious wars will cause them to fight to the last soldier.

The statement of the last soldier is a bit exaggerated, but it is still somewhat different from reality, but the truth is definitely this.

From the beginning, this war was a war of attrition. Only those who could persevere until the end would be the winner.

......

Li Ye's massacre did not last long, and a group of Vajra Realm monks appeared in front of him.

He quickly glanced at the Vajra Realm cultivators in front of him were about thirty, from the beginning to the higher level. Of course, the main force was the beginning level, and there were also a large number of high-level levels, with as many as six.

Not only did Li Ye have Vajra Realm monks, Li Xian, Nangong No. 1, and Chu Nanhuai master and disciple, there were also a number of Vajra Realm monks in front of him. This is a battle that will inevitably occur. Vajra Realm always has to engage in battle. Targeted elimination of the strong guarding passes is the choice they should make.

Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang have already sacrificed the immortal mode. Fairy Guanghan is still so ethereal and sharp. Every sword will be filled with blood. The giant god is still so wild and wilderness. Every step will knock an enemy away.

If it is an ordinary war, the duel between monks with real human realm will be consciously carried out in mid-air, in order to avoid hurting innocent people - the so-called innocent people of course refer to one's own people.

But now, Li Xian, Su Emei and others must keep the juncture and prevent the tide of monks from pouring into the city, so they did not leave the city.

The result of this is that the city wall was destroyed beyond recognition in the fierce battle, and the rammed earth wall collapsed one after another in the blink of an eye. The rising loess smoke and dust could easily rise to a height of ten feet under the impact of the chaotic spiritual energy.

The monks who wanted to find a gap to enter the city quickly paid the price of their body and life.

Almost all the real-life monks present were Yangshen real people. Although Li Wenwen and Liu Xiaohei had a lower realm, they fought side by side and guarded a defense zone. Even when facing the overflowing spiritual tide, the monks of the Shu Sect would suffer severe damage in an instant or even die on the spot.

In the eyes of Laojun, all the saints are ants under the eyes. In the eyes of the Immortal Realm, all the ants are ants before entering the Immortal Realm. In front of the cultivators of the Realm and Vajra Realm, the qi-training cultivators are also ants. High-level cultivators will not care too much about the lives of low-level cultivators, and this will be the case at any time.

But low-level monks are not fools. Knowing that they cannot get close to the battlefield of the great monks, they turn to seek to break through the front line that they can try to break through.

As a result, the attacks suffered by the city wall defense line defended by the Guiyi army became more and more fierce. In addition to teams of high and powerful tyrants, who had good cultivation, continued to jump up to the top of the city, and the low-level monks were also climbing up to the wall one after another.

The main force of the Guiyi Army was ordinary soldiers, but they were not afraid of monk soldiers climbing the city. Under the leadership of their respective generals and schools, they launched a bloody and cruel hand-to-hand battle with monk soldiers.

For ordinary people, monks seem to be worthy of respect, and monks who have attained enlightenment—for example, at the high level of Qi training and at the Vajra Realm, they should be even more afraid.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the so-called eminent monks have all kinds of supernatural powers. They can easily make people lose their souls when they are alive. After they die, they will also turn into relics. If they annoy them, they will definitely die without a place to bury them.

But today is different.

Before the war began, when the monks' army appeared outside the pass, Li Xian said something to them: "Everyone in the world said that the Bodhisattvas, immortals, ghosts and gods can be disbelief, but they cannot be disrespectful. Many people regard this sentence as a guideline and think that it is indeed the case. But in my opinion, this is just a nonsense bastard!

"I don't believe in things, and I think that things that do not exist, why do you make me respect me? I respect heaven and earth and respect people's hearts because these things really exist and are worthy of awe. I have never seen or touched things, what do I respect and how can I respect them?

"All men of blood have knives in their hands and armor. When they are alive, they stand tall and have no shame in their hearts. When they are in a state of justice, our awe are so worthless. Only slaves will be respectful of everything, because everything is higher than their level! We are real men, we have gold under our knees, and our awe are of great value. We can give it to the emperor, the emperor, and Houtu, but there is no reason to give it to the enemy!

"The enemy appears in front of us, and we only need to do one thing, that is, to raise the horizontal sword in your hand and cut it with one sword! Those Taoist monks spread this sentence to deceive you and make you willingly bow to them! To the liar, any smart person should beat him up so that he can't even recognize his mother!

"Remember, you are the border army of the Tang Dynasty! The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are invincible in the world. God blocks the gods and Buddha blocks the Buddhas!"

The soldiers of Guiyi Army thought this sentence was very reasonable, not only because it was clear in cause and effect, but also because it was said from Li Xian.

Who is Li Xian? Of course, Guiyi Army didn’t know that he was King Lao An, but every Guiyi Army soldier knew that he was the great monk who had fought with them for many years in Yangguan, and was the great monk who truly lived and died with them!

Others may lie to them, such as Taoist monks, but Li Xian will never lie to them.

So at this moment, the soldiers of Guiyi Army who formed a formation and fought hard were all full of fighting spirit. They held the shield in their hands tightly, held the horizontal knife in their hands, pulled the strong bow in their hands, and stabbed the spear in their hands hard, which was to teach these bald donkeys who pretended to be a god!

Just now, their bed crossbows killed thousands of monks, and their powerful crossbows killed thousands of monks. Whether it is an ordinary bald donkey or a bald donkey, as long as the neck is cut off, they can only fall in a pool of blood without moving.

Once the soldiers of Guiyi Army were afraid of death, they would burst out with the powerful combat power they should have.

Their personal strength is indeed not as good as that of the monks of the Shimen, but the reason why the Tang army was invincible was never due to the combat power of fighting alone. If we wanted to fight this, the Tubo people who grew up in the bitter and cold land of the plateau were better at it. What they really were to exert was the comprehensive strength of armor, bows, crossbows, weapons, and battle formations.

They fought with monks on the horse road, fought with monks in the corridor without retreating, and fought with monks behind the city walls for an inch of land. Five people formed a formation, ten people depended on each other, and hundreds of people showed off their might. Every step forward for the monks in the Buddhist sect would cost a heavy price!

When Li Ye noticed that more than 30 Vajra Realm appeared in his sight, he keenly discovered that the other party was preparing to rely on the number of people to use the powerful formation of Shimen to compress his range of activities, trap his combat power, consume his spiritual energy, and finally let him only drink hatred on the spot.

Li Ye did not hesitate at all. The Emperor's sword stood in front of his eyebrows, and the sword body suddenly rose. In an instant, a dragon energy surged into the sky, "Lotus grow step by step!"
