Chapter 804: The Might of the Desert
The army of the Dragon Yuan Empire began to advance, and the black and crushing torrent of steel rushed forward, and the scorching sand creaked, as if a whole huge soldering iron was pressing towards the lonely, low city not far away.
Moreover, the moment the army advanced, the cavalry who had been riding on their horses for more than an hour without moving all jumped off their horses, and the heavy shield warriors who were hiding behind the cavalry team lifted the huge heavy shield hidden under the sand at night.
The giant shield is in front of the team, more than two meters high! It depends on two warriors to move forward slowly, and the previous war horse hits directly to the back of the team, and it is not needed!
Long Si saw it clearly on the city wall, and couldn't help frowning, the strong national strength of the Longyuan Empire naturally had the resources and methods to deal with the deadly attack of the elven archers, but this situation was unexpected.
"Give it a try!" Ryusi said to the elven warriors beside him.
The slender elf warrior stepped forward, squinted her eyes and carefully looked at the enemy army that was still thousands of meters away, and drew her bow to build, but she didn't see aiming, and a black arrow shot out like a black meteor.
"Boom!!"
An arrow hit the giant shield and stuck it in it.
The giant shield shuddered for a moment, then followed the other shields and continued to move slowly forward.
The elven warriors at the head of the city couldn't help but be very surprised, the opponent's shield actually blocked the attack of the ironwood arrow!
In the distance, many people were just as surprised as the elven warriors.
On the small hillside where the desert meets the sparse woods, there are more than a dozen groups of people standing distinctly.
These people were either in groups of three or two, or in groups of a dozen, leaning close to each other and keeping a considerable distance from the other groups.
These are all monitors sent by nearby countries.
The Longyuan Empire has been at war for many years, and what is the combat power now, this is something that every country wants to know.
And this time, against the Fire Leaf Country, which is famous for taking over the alien army, sensitive people smell in the air that the sky is about to change, no matter who wins this battle, the impact on the continent is not just a small-scale war that can be compared.
Seeing that the elves' arrows were blocked by the heavy shield, the watchers immediately had a judgment in their hearts: the Dragon Yuan Empire had won most of this war.
There is no suspense about the outcome of this war compared to the national strength, the Longyuan Empire completely crushed the Fire Leaf Country, but the power of the iron and wood arrows of the elven warriors is still in front of them, the bows and arrows of these elven warriors are accurate and ruthless, not to mention anything else on the battlefield, an elf squad will kill all the commanders of your army in the blink of an eye, and the rest of the soldiers will immediately become blind, how can there be any reason to be undefeated.
But now, as soon as the Longyuan Empire appeared, it solved the most difficult problem to solve......
Looking at the poor lonely city on the desert border, the watchers couldn't help but shake their heads, this was going to be a massacre!
The heavy shield soldiers continued to advance, and the soldiers behind them were the same, looking down from the head of Fire Leaf City, they only saw rows of heavy shields advancing towards this side, and they couldn't see anyone at all!
This heavy shield is four times as thick as an ordinary heavy shield! If it weren't too heavy, the height would have to be increased to three meters, and even now it would have to be carried by two soldiers together.
This is the shield specially created by the eldest prince for this battle, although it is extremely heavy and not conducive to action, but the enemy's city is close in front of him, and it can be rubbed in a few steps, and the city walls and gates have no defense ability for war at all, as long as the soldiers arrive, they can quickly break the city without even needing siege equipment!
That's what the eldest prince thought.
And that's exactly what is happening now.
As the heavy shield continued to advance, when it began to enter the one-kilometer radius of Fire Leaf City, the elves' arrows rained down.
"Bang Bang Bang!!"
The hard and heavy ironwood arrows shot at the special heavy shield with a loud sound of a war hammer hitting the ground, and all the arrows were nailed to the heavy shield, and occasionally arrows came out from behind, but basically could not penetrate the heavy shield, and the shield was shaky and still kept moving forward.
Ironwood arrows count!
Unlike ordinary arrows, the process of making orange arrows is very complicated, and the elves are usually reluctant to use it.
Ryusi raised his hand, "Stop shooting!"
The elves put down their bows and arrows, and they were all angry, and the ironwood arrows had never been so deflated.
Long Si looked at the shield array that was constantly advancing towards this side, and a faint sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "The Great Prince of the Great Prince...... You're still cultivating well in the palace. β
Luna stood aside, silent, frowning as she looked at the advancing shields.
This is the war of humanity!
Powerful weapons!Powerful commanding power!Unparalleled population advantage!The arrow that Leni shocked the envoys of various countries in the Dragon Abyss Empire seemed to be just yesterday, and now the human race has come up with a way to deal with the elves' archery.
If you want to survive in the human world, it is not as easy as you think.
"Bring the scarf and get ready!" said Luna in a deep voice.
The elves lowered their bows and arrows, pulled out a translucent scarf from their waists, and carefully wrapped their heads tightly.
A thousand elven warriors jumped off the city wall in unison.
This move not only stunned the eldest prince who was observing the enemy situation on the other side, but also stunned the watchers in the distance.
Why, do you want to fight in close combat?
Why did a thousand elves fight with an army of 100,000 in close combat?
Tianxian appeared at the gate of the city, and the great sword of desolate dust was inserted in the sand, burning with a quiet flame.
When the eldest prince saw Tianxian at a glance, he couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, wanting to fight with the power of his squinted eyes?
Although the human continent is as strong as a forest, none of them can confront the army head-on, and if one person can kill ten or hundreds of people, can he still kill thousands of people? Not to mention well-trained soldiers!
In front of an army of 100,000, any strong person must avoid it, otherwise he will only be consumed alive in the chaotic army and die.
Besides, don't I have a great character on my side?
Seeing that the sky was idle, a stone fell to the ground in the eldest prince's heart, and he thought that the other party would have some strange tricks, but in the end, he actually went directly into battle to kill!
"Speed up!" shouted the Grand Prince!
Looking at the heavy shield army that began to speed up, Tian Xian's face was as usual, and he shouted to the elven warriors around him: "This is your first battle, everyone in the human continent is watching you, so I ask you not to kill people on the premise of self-preservation! We just need to defeat the enemy neatly!"
"Yes, Emissary!" replied the elves neatly.
"Very well!" said Tian Xian, "but remember what I am saying now! If any of you do not protect yourself and die on the battlefield! Don't expect me to be sympathetic to your family and friends, I will let them wander in the desert for three months, dead or alive!"
"Understood!"
"Okay! Prepare to go with me!" Tian Xian pulled out the Desert Dust Sword, "One more thing to tell you, originally the Sand King would send desert warriors to help us, but I refused, this time it is our battle, and we can only rely on ourselves!"
The elves couldn't help but be stunned and looked at each other.
It's just us......
A thousand?
Although the elves are not proficient in mathematics, they are still very proficient in simple arithmetic in architecture, and the elves know how big the difference between one thousand and one hundred thousand is!
"Sir, that is, we can defeat a hundred human soldiers each?" asked an elven warrior as he dropped his scarf.
Tian Xian looked at her, this is a young elf girl, good arithmetic, and seems to be very curious.
Of course, the other elves are not so curious, why can you defeat a hundred of them at a time and not die?
Tianxian put the face towel on her, "Yes! But you have to bring a good face towel, and you must not take it off!"
Turning around, Tian Xian emphasized, "The face towel covers the mouth and nose, ears and eyes, you must keep it in mind!"
The elves looked at each other, "Yes!"
"Okay! let's go!" Tian Xian rushed out with a big sword.
The elves were still a little stunned - just rush up?
And the envoy, isn't your rush a little slow......
If you run 100 meters at this speed, it is estimated that you can run for 30 seconds, and the big sword is dragged on the sand, swaying slowly.
The elves wondered, but they didn't dare to ask, and rushed to ...... The small broken steps followed behind the day.
The eldest prince on the opposite side rushed out with someone when he saw Tianidle, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that this time I will see how I let you die!
"Boom!!!" The thought of the eldest prince was still wandering in his mind, and a loud noise was heard in the desert, and a huge black shadow was seen rushing out of the sand.
Shanu's terrifying body of more than 100 meters rushed out of the sand, stood in mid-air at a height of fifty or sixty meters, and then smashed heavily on the sand, like a bomb exploding the dust into the sky.
In the dust, Shanu revealed its head, and on its broad head, the Sand King sat in golden armor, surrounded by twelve close guards she had re-elected after the coup d'Γ©tat.
The twelve guards were already in their positions, their palms clasped together, as if they were still muttering, and a strange brilliance flowed back and forth on their bodies.
The incident happened suddenly, the eldest prince's heart trembled slightly, the attitude of the Sand King of the previous war book was to resolutely protect Fire Leaf City, but he has not seen the desert warrior appear until now, what did he come here to do by himself?
However, this march has already included the factor of the Sand King, even if the Shalit warriors of the desert appear, they will not be able to resist the 100,000 steel army on this flat land!
"March!!" roared the Prince!
"Your Majesty, you're ready!" whispered, a middle-aged man in his forties, the head of the twelve guards.
"Don't let the enemy underestimate our desert!" came the Sand King's low, hoarse voice from the armor.
Sand King is a little girl in her early tens, almost eleven years old, this matter will not be said by everyone, but in fact, it is no longer a secret, especially after the completion of Fire Leaf City, Sand King almost grew up here, and there is a little girl here who can't move every day when she sees a snack.
The fact that he has ruled the desert for three years without giving the little sand king unbelievable wisdom makes the desert people have to admit that the current sand king is enough to take on the big responsibility.
Regarding the identity of the Sand King, the people around the Sand King, such as the twelve attendants, have two attitudes, and when she puts on her armor and becomes the majestic Sand King, everyone will be respectful.
When she takes off her armor and appears in the form of a little girl, the twelve attendants will take on the task of taking her to find snacks to eat, to take her to play, to take her shopping, to watch her sleep, and so on.
So this time, six of the twelve attendants were women.
The little sand king also has two identities, one is the majestic sand king, when he appears in the image of golden battle armor, his voice will also become majestic and hoarse, and when it is a little girl, no one will think that she is the majestic sand king hidden in the armor and can't reach the helmet at all.
Nowadays, the only countries that do not know the change in the identity of the sand king are other countries that have no news with the desert.
"Yes!" The middle-aged man, the leader of the twelve, nodded and glanced at the others, "Begin!"
An invisible force quietly blew in all directions, and the unique words of the desert people echoed in the sand.
The eldest prince's heavy shield soldiers continued to advance, and Tian Xian also rushed forward with the elves, the speed of both sides was not fast, but the distance was not big, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was less than two hundred meters.
"Shoot the arrows!" the eldest prince ordered.
The archers hiding behind the shield did not hesitate to release arrows into the air, and suddenly a rain of arrows several times denser than the elves just now came to the sky.
Tian Xian was startled when he saw it, "Retreat!"
The elves were stunned, this ...... This is a retreat?
But Tianxian took the lead and ran, and the elves had to follow. The thousand people who had just rushed out rushed back several times faster than when they came.
Seeing this, the eldest prince was excited, "March! March! Speed up for me!!"
The shield array began to run!
In the blink of an eye, the 100,000-strong army had already reached a distance of 100 meters from the city wall, and Tian Xian had already led people to run to the city.
"Shoot your arrows! Prepare to attack!" the eldest prince shouted as he pushed his mask behind the shield array!
Before the shout fell, the eldest prince staggered, his armor was so heavy that he almost didn't fall.
Staggered to his feet, and the eldest prince was suddenly startled.
The reason why he stumbled was because the yellow sand under his feet buried his combat boots, and he didn't take a steady step!
It was clear from the previous investigation that there was only a thin layer of sand on the edge of the desert!
"Your Highness, look!" suddenly shouted one of the guards.
When the eldest prince heard the sound, he looked in the direction of the desert from the lookout hole of the shield array, and he couldn't help but be terrified at this glance!
In the desert, I don't know when a black sandstorm has formed, and it is rushing towards this side with its teeth and claws, and the eldest prince realizes that the wind has risen around him, and the yellow sand has been blown from the desert by the wind, and it is spread under the fire leaf city in front of him against the ground.
The word popped into the prince's head!
But the eldest prince immediately dispelled this idea, the sandstorm was coming......! But it's the same on the other side, no one is immune to this sandstorm.
Then, the prince clearly saw that Tian Xian under the city gate opposite took out a gauze scarf from his waist, and wrapped his head and face tightly......
Pitfall!!
The eldest prince is like falling into an ice cellar! Withdraw his troops! He has already killed the opponent's city gate, how can he withdraw his troops? If he doesn't drop his shield, he can't run away from the sandstorm, and if he drops his shield, he sells his back to the elves!
Thinking of this big prince's eyes are red!
Shameless boy!
"Advance for me!Flatten Fire Leaf City!!"
The soldiers are a little weak-hearted, the sandstorm in the desert has rushed to this side, the yellow sand on the ground is rapidly thickening, the heavy armor and shield have been difficult to move, although the enemy city is a hundred meters away, but the distance of a hundred meters is as insurmountable as a moat.
But the commander's order is a qiΔ!
100,000 soldiers shouted, struggling forward! The shouts rushed into the sky, mingling with the roar of the sandstorm.
"Remember what I said before!" Under the city gate, Tianxian wrapped his scarf tightly, "Rush with me!"
The elves seemed to understand, and they all rewrapped their scarves, and those who were still holding bows dropped their longbows and drew their short blades.
A thousand elves rushed towards the 100,000-strong army with a roaring sandstorm!
The black sandstorm simply had endless power, setting off thousands of tons of yellow sand and roaring and pounced, Fire Leaf City was engulfed in an instant, and the black sandstorm enveloped the human soldiers.
The army of 100,000 was swallowed up in the blink of an eye.
The sandstorm whirled, and the usually sunny desert border instantly turned into a hell of death.
The human soldiers in the sandstorm were suddenly unable to move forward, and the violent wind almost blew the shield backwards, let alone forward, it would take all the strength to keep the shield from falling.
The frantic sand "crackled" on the shields and armor, and through the mask it hit the face, and the knife cut hurt, which made it even more difficult for the human soldier to move.
And Tian Xian, with a thousand elves, rode this wind and almost flew into the enemy formation!
Kicking over a huge shield, Tian Xian almost flew above the crowd, now the human soldiers don't talk about resistance, it is difficult to move, Tian Xian kicked one by one, kicked these shields down, and the soldiers behind were firmly pressed and couldn't move.
The elves did the same, and with a light touch on their shields, the soldiers behind them were immediately killed.
"Shoot me!" the eldest prince roared madly when he saw that things were not good.
Countless arrows shot into the sky, and then all of them were blown to the rear by the wind, and many soldiers grinned at the arrows.
The black storm was full of exclamations and shouts of soldiers, and the enemy had obviously rushed in, but there was no trace of him!
"Abandon the shield!" shrink the formation !!"
The Great Prince shouted vigorously, and the order was desperately conveyed by the heralds, and the human soldiers threw down their heavy shields and quickly assembled.
Throwing away the shield, even in the silly treasure, the soldiers were still able to move, and after activating the stigmata protection, the situation suddenly improved a lot.
"Enemy!"
A soldier suddenly saw a rushing figure in the storm, and before he could raise his sword, the shadow had already flown in front of him in the wind, and it was directly impacted.
The force was so great that the soldier was knocked backwards, knocking down several soldiers in a row.
In the crazy sandstorm, the soldiers who were fully armored were unable to move, and it was difficult to get up if they fell, but those who still had the strength to get up were shocked to find that the yellow sand on the ground had been quickly poured into the armor, and the whole body was as heavy as lead, and they couldn't get up at all.
The wind and sand are flying, and the elves are charged in the storm, such as entering a no-man's land, and the soldiers they see are all knocked down with one blow, and they don't have to work hard at all, as long as they collide or push down, they will immediately make the other party incapacitated.
A thousand elves spread out a net, and the fish seemed to fly through the human battle array, and countless soldiers fell behind them.
And Tianxian is not just here to defeat these soldiers and win, no matter how many soldiers are killed, it will not help, the huge Longyuan Empire can have countless sources of troops, and Huoye City is just a place of projectiles.
Must be fatal with one blow!
The energy tentacles unfolded, and the qiΔ in this chaotic sandstorm instantly became clear, the roar of the wind, the heaviness of the sand, the terrified shouts of the human soldiers, and even the heavy breathing, all in control.
Grabbing the helmet of a soldier next to him and throwing it far away, he was smashing a soldier who was about to hurt the elves, Tian Xian turned around and changed his route and rushed to the left front.
Although the elves have a keen five senses, they are also greatly affected in this sandstorm, and their sight and hearing are less than two percent, but fortunately, as long as they rush forward, they will fight when they encounter those wearing armor, absolutely yes!
As for where the day is, no one knows!
patted the soldiers in front of him all the way, and soon stopped.
Just a dozen paces ahead, a hoarse voice was roaring frantically, "Gather the forces of the left flank! Gather the forces of the left flank immediately! The follow-up troops retreat! Let the follow-up troops retreat, and give me a bypass to attack the city! Messengers! Where are the heralds?"
Tian smiled and gently plunged the Great Sword of Desolate Dust into the ground.
The heaviest and heavier aura spread out from the great sword, and the yellow sand around it fell to the ground, and the sound of the wind dissipated...... With the Desert Dust Sword as the center, a calm area in the storm slowly expanded.
The eldest prince was annoyed that he couldn't find the herald, and suddenly he was stunned, and the wind stopped?
Dozens of steps away, the yellow sand was still flying, and the wind was faintly roaring, and the black curtain-like sandstorm was not far away, but the wind and waves around him suddenly calmed down.
The soldiers didn't know what was going on, but when they saw Tian Xian standing in front of them, they immediately shouted, and the guards who surrounded Tian Xian, and the big prince who guarded the eldest prince, instantly divided into two sides.
The eldest prince couldn't help but tremble at the corners of his eyes when he saw Tianxian appearing, this windless area was obviously also the ghost of the other party.
"You...... Are you here to die?" the eldest prince gritted his teeth.
Tian Xian smiled again, pulled out the large pieces of wasteland, and all the soldiers were suddenly blown to pieces by the sandstorm.
Reinserted the Great Sword of the Wasteland, the windless area expanded, and Tian Xian looked at the eldest prince who got up, hehe and smiled.
"You ......" the eldest prince trembled angrily, but he could also distinguish the shape, and changed his words, "What do you want?"
"I just want to live in peace, please withdraw your highness. Tian Xian said very sincerely.
"Withdraw!" the eldest prince's face twitched this time.
"Yes, now your 100,000 army can't take care of the safety of His Highness, and I can swear that the two so-called strong men behind His Highness can't protect His Highness's safety. β
As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at the two ordinary-dressed soldiers behind the eldest prince sarcastically, these two guys are quite powerful, but if you want to do it, hum......
When the eldest prince heard this, he knew that his hole cards had actually been seen through! The other party dared to appear in such a big way, I am afraid that he had already won the battle, and he didn't care about his two guards at all.
"Your Majesty, you don't have much time, every moment you think, your soldiers are being consumed by my warriors. β
"Of course, I know that it will be a shame for you to go back like this, but compared to this, it is much better than dying in a glorious battle, and if you go back after defeat, you will be treated as an outcast, and you will naturally be able to live your previous life. β
The eldest prince was stunned, "You...... You've already calculated?"
"This is also for your sake!" Tianxian said with sincerity on his face.
"If I don't withdraw my troops, do you really dare to kill me?" the eldest prince gripped his sword.
Tian Xian thought to himself, this is really a master who is not afraid of death, is this a play family? Who will you talk to on the battlefield? I will disguise you now and make you like to be killed by the betrayal of my subordinates......
"Your Highness......" Tian Xian thought for a moment, "you better withdraw your troops, if you don't agree...... I will no longer persuade you. β
Seeing that the sky was unmoved, the eldest prince's hand slowly left the hilt of the sword, "Okay...... What a powerful method, I can understand it today. β
Tian Xianyan smiled when he heard this, "Harmony is precious, and harmony is precious." β
The storm is raging on the desert border, and the sand king in the desert has been paying attention to the battlefield, just listening to the sound of the wind and sand, the sand king knows what is happening in the sandstorm.
"Alright, the elves have already passed through the enemy formation, let them come back!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the guard replied.
The wind immediately changed direction, and the sandstorm rolled back and crashed back into the desert.
The elves were not knowing what to do, and the wind was already dragging them away.
This made the elves overjoyed, and they rushed back immediately, killing all the human soldiers along the way, which was another big achievement.
The sandstorm came and went quickly, and the scene of only ten minutes before and after had been rolled back into the desert.
As soon as the storm returned to the desert, it suddenly lost its previous rage, the wind dissipated, the yellow sand scattered, and stopped in the blink of an eye.
After a while, the yellow sand fell, the sky was blue, and there was not a trace of storm.
An army of 100,000 has been buried in the yellow sand.
Although the sandstorm dispersed, the sand remained in place, the thick sand was full of fallen human soldiers, a thousand elves were simply harvested, each of them defeated at least dozens of human soldiers, and there were really not many of these 100,000 troops left standing......
At the time of drinking a cup of tea, the army of 100,000 was routed under Fire Leaf City.
When the lucky soldiers saw that the sandstorm had dispersed, they felt like they were the last to survive, and they quickly searched for their companions, and when they found that everyone was basically alive, they hurriedly dug their companions out of the sand.
"Your Highness! Your Highness is gone!!" I didn't know that such a miserable cry had ever been heard, and the news spread quickly, and the soldiers who were still active were dumbfounded.
At this time, the eldest prince, who was already holding his nose and swollen face, stood on the city tower.
"How did you bring him back. Long Si took off his face towel, shook off the sand and dirt on his body, and asked with a frown.
"This guy is duplicitous, and he wants to kill me, and I beat him up!" Tianxian threw the eldest prince aside, "Let him go back and cheapen him, stay as a hostage, and exchange some gold jewelry and other things." β
Long Si couldn't help but shake his head.
Luna looked at the panicked soldiers in the city, who didn't know whether to dig up their companions or find the eldest prince first, or run away immediately, and asked, "What about these people? β
"Ask someone to tie up, tie as much as you can, and change all the money when the time comes!" Tian Xian immediately made a decision, and then asked strangely, "What are you looking at me like this? I'm not a fan of money! We always take the gold of the little sand king, and this time it's not okay to pay back the family at all?"
Luna glanced at Tian Xian with disdain, "I'll take the elves to kidnap people." β
"I'll go too!" Tu Ge, who hated the wind and sand the most, finally showed his head from the side, "We can tie ten of us together." β
Luna and Tu Ge left one after another, and Tian Xian came to Long Si's side and asked with a smile, "This battle, you have really beautifully arranged." β
Long Si still frowned, and he didn't smile, "There is no arrangement, just relying on the power of the Sand King." β
"I didn't expect to rely on the power of the Sand King. β
"If you want to compliment me, just say it, or just give me some reward. β
Tian Xian smiled bitterly, "I'm just talking about things, but we kept the previous one this time." β
Long Si nodded, "But the more difficult thing is still to come, this time there is a lesson, the next time the emperor ** will not suffer this loss again, just like they immediately made a special heavy shield to deal with the elves, an army like the Longyuan Empire is indeed terrifying." β
"Will there be another attack?"
"Yes, and immediately!" The Longyuan Empire would not tolerate such a defeat, and presumably desperately sought a battlefield, they couldn't have liked this kind of situation any more.
"If we bring in an army of millions, we'll have to flee. β
Long Si smiled slightly, "It depends on the speed of our actions, if it is fast enough, then ...... It's okay to say!"
"Okay?" Tian Xian looked at Long Si strangely, "Do you have an idea again?"
Long Si pursed his lips and smiled, "Of course, otherwise wouldn't I, the Overseer, be useless?"
"Well, now you are Zhuge Liang, I listen to you. β
"Zhuge Liang?" Long Si bit the unfamiliar words with difficulty, and stared at Tianxian with suspicion, "What is Zhuge Liang?"
"It's not a thing!"
"You say I...... It's not something!"
Tianxian had no choice but to shut up.
The news that Fire Leaf City defeated the Empire's 100,000 troops and captured the Great Prince was dropped like a bomb in the pond of the Human Continent, which had been calm for many years.
In less than half a day, Gu Li and the fourth girl sent back a message at the same time, the Holy Spirit Temple and the Blood Alliance had invited them to today's dinner, and it was said that there was something important to discuss.
Ryusi looked at the message sent back, his face full of sly smiles, "Here we go...... A qiΔ is all expected. β
"What started. Tian Xian asked.
"I, Zhuge Liang, have started to implement the plan!" Long Si said angrily, "You...... Get out of here at once!"
"Huh?"
"Ahh
Updates in place will continue tomorrow (to be continued.) )
