On this day of fierce fighting, the two Chang'an ships floating in front of Mulu City were full of firepower, and the soldiers of the Great Food Guards in the city were pressed with French cannons and bed crossbows.

The magic cannon was developed by the Tang Dynasty craftsman, and it was more powerful than the bed crossbow, so it consumed more resources. It was only equipped in the army of pure qi cultivators, and the Wolf Tooth Army, the Tiger Guard Army, and the Yulin Army each had more than a hundred. And the number of cannons carried by a Chang'an ship is equal to the number of equipment of a military army, which is huge in terms of destructive power.

The original strong city defense of Mulu City, under the continuous blows of the Tiger Guards and the Yulin Army, was already seriously damaged, and now it was bombarded from the air by two Chang'an ships, which was naturally difficult to support, and when the sun set, the fortifications were completely destroyed.

"If this continues, it is unknown whether Mulu City can hold it tomorrow, and if Mulu City is broken early, it will be difficult for the entire defense line to hold on to the month and a half expected before. When inspecting the city defense, Xi Luchi looked worried, and Ma Lun, who was walking in front, also had a gloomy face.

"Don't worry too much, I will continue to fight tomorrow to contain the Tang Army's Chang'an ship, no matter what, Mulu City can't be breached so early!" He was injured today and should not have been able to continue playing, but the situation is such that he must also take a big risk with the injury.

Xi Luchi's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "The Tang Army's Chang'an ship is extremely powerful, if the caliph fights again, what ...... in case?"

Ma Lun waved his hand to interrupt the other party's words, "Although the Chang'an ship is huge, I have observed it for a day today, and it is not without experience. Tomorrow I will take the shamans to battle, as long as the tactics are appropriate, it will not be a problem to drag a Chang'an ship.

"Today, the army has reached the edge of the cliff, and the defense line of Mulu City must hold on for a month and a half!"

Xi Luchi saw that Ma Lun had made up his mind, and knew that it was useless to say more, so he could only bow to the leader. At the same time, he also made up his mind that he must protect Malen in the battle tomorrow, even if he dies in battle, he can't let the other party be in danger.

"Today, I received news from Nissa City that Garrigi successfully ambushed nearly 300 Tang Dynasty monks through the plan of 'luring the snake out of the hole'. A small number of people on the other side have fled, and the Supervision Yuan is pursuing them. After discussing the current war situation, Xi Luchi reported on the implementation of the conscription order as usual.

Ma Lun bowed slightly, "The Great Temple's strategy is good, and the implementation is also very good, so it is not surprising to be able to achieve this result."

"The Tang Dynasty's meticulous power in our country is indeed terrifying. Just one city of Nissa City can gather nearly three hundred elite monks who can fight, and if they are not targeted this time, I am afraid that it will greatly disrupt the conscription order and affect the entire battle situation. ”

Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment and asked Xi Luchi, "What is the situation in other places?" Of the plan to 'lure the snake out of the hole', only Nissa City succeeded?"

"Nissa City is close to each other, there must be movement first, and it is inevitable that the news will come at the earliest, and the situation in other places will come one after another. Xi Luchi explained.

Ma Lun nodded, looking at the brightly lit Tang army camp not far outside the city, his eyes flashed, and his tone was complicated: "Since the beginning of this battle, all kinds of fresh magic weapons in the Tang army have been appearing, if there are no these things, how can the war be like this? Li Ye, this guy, where did he get so many wonderful ideas?"

Xi Luchi couldn't answer this question, and Ma Lun didn't want it

I hope he will answer.

Sighing, Maren said slowly: "In any case, as long as the follow-up monks and supplies are in place on time, this war will be a big loss for us, and the victory will still belong to us." Although the Tang army is strong, it is still too arrogant to go on an expedition and seek profits for thousands of miles. ”

Xi Luchi hurriedly answered: "The recruited monks and supplies will definitely arrive smoothly!"

The next day, the war went on as usual. The difference is that because of the addition of the Chang'an ship, the Great Food Guards of Mulu City are even more disadvantaged.

Ma Lun led a large group of elite monks, took advantage of the speed advantage, surrounded on several sides, and paid a lot of price, but after all, he entangled a Chang'an ship. His cultivation strength is still unstoppable, and with the cooperation of masters, he is naturally like a fish in water.

However, he can only entangle a Chang'an ship, and he can't board the ship to seize it, and ordinary Great Food Cultivators can't break through the Tang True Realm that guards the Chang'an ship, and they can't cooperate with him.

Although King Qi and Da Shao Si Ming were not lightly injured yesterday, they have recovered a lot today after all, and they have not lost their combat strength, and now they are all sitting on the Chang'an ship. If Malen broke through alone, he would not be able to bargain at all in front of them and the magic cannons of the Chang'an ship.

The other Chang'an ship, although it was also taken care of by the Great Food Monk, was basically not affected, and under the salvo of magic cannons and bed crossbows, the other party did not dare to approach at all. Eventually, it hovered outside Mulu City, bombarding the fortifications and the monks of the Guards in the city.

With the cooperation of the Chang'an ship, the Tiger Guards and the Yulin Army attacked Mulu City for the first time and launched a brutal street battle with the guards in the city. The monks of the front team of the two sides were mixed together, and it was difficult to distinguish between them, while the soldiers in the rear of the Guards, who had no opponent in front of them, were bombed by the Chang'an ship in the air, and suffered heavy losses, which can be described as miserable.

In such an extremely unfavorable situation, the Guards can still insist on fighting, and it can be regarded as a military morale.

In the next two days, the Guards lost more than half of their soldiers, Mulu City was defended more difficult, and Mullen himself was injured in the battle against the Chang'an ship. What is slightly exciting is that news came from several cities one after another, and they all thwarted the actions of the Tang Dynasty through the plan of "luring the snake out of the hole".

A steady stream of monks and supplies is approaching the second line of defense, and the soldiers of the Great Food are finally a little hopeful, hoping to retreat to the back as soon as possible.

Because of the tremendous pressure that Mulu City was under, Maren constantly ordered the monks who were rushing to speed up, asking them to march day and night. The Tang Dynasty has been hit hard and has lost its threat, and the safety of the recruited monks and materials has been greatly improved.

If the defense line of Mulu City was breached, the second line of defense was not established, and the strategic depth was not formed, causing the Tang army to drive straight in, it would be a real disaster.

......

It was day and night, heavy rain, and the four fields were as dark as ink, and after a long march, the party from Nissa City stopped in a valley to rest for a while.

Although the military order was to march day and night, the monks always needed to eat and drink, and it was impossible not to take a breath. The livestock in the baggage camp, carrying a huge amount of supplies, are also very tired and need to rest from time to time.

The presiding high priest, Garrigi, was in a good mood.

In the past few days, he has been in a hurry, and he has cultivated like this

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Existentially, it's nothing at all. Seeing that he was about to enter the Eastern War Zone, Garrigi's mind also became urgent, planning to show his face in front of Maren this time.

In less than half an hour, Garrigi ordered the team to continue on their way, and the procession, which had been quiet, immediately became noisy again. All kinds of shouts, voices, complaints, and the cries of livestock all came together to make this rainy night particularly impatient.

Soon, Garrigi noticed that in front of a forest, dozens of monks were making loud noises, as if arguing with each other about something, and the noise was very loud. In the blink of an eye, there was a flash of inspiration, the sound of gas explosion came out, followed by yelling, screaming, and the sound of drawing the knife out of the sheath was clear and piercing, and dozens of people were instantly scuffled.

The scope of influence of the monk's magic was not small, and the riot expanded in a few moments, hundreds of people were swept in, and the scene showed signs of getting out of control for a while. The people around hurriedly dodged, and the monks of the Great Temple, who maintained order, quickly stepped forward, so that the melee did not spread to more people.

"What's going on?" said Garrigi, his face black, and he flew towards the place of the incident.

The scene was extremely chaotic, with a group of Nissa City monks battling another group of monks, and some people clapping with the team's leader, the Grand Temple monks. Each other was not small in anger, and the shots were all killing moves, and twenty or thirty people had already fallen on the ground, and blood stains spread in the muddy water, winding like snakes under the reflection of torches.

"Back to the high priest, the specific situation is not clear, but it seems that it is a group of people who are too tired to hate the work of pulling carts.......," a monk hurriedly replied. There were also several monks lying on the ground with whips in their hands and dressed in the costumes of the Grand Temple, which is not difficult to speculate.

Garrigi's face sank.

The caravan carried a lot of supplies, there was simply not enough livestock, and many monks were sent to pull the carts, and in order to speed up the journey, it was inevitable that they would not be well rested, and it was not surprising that there were complaints. But to the extent of killing people, this is a violation of military discipline and should not be done.

Before Garrigi could give his order, many monks from the Great Temple came to isolate the conflicting crowd and prepare to kill and suppress the troublemakers.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion from elsewhere, and the exclamations, screams, and curses of the crowd were so loud that when Garrigi turned his head, he saw a large mass of fire rising into the sky, as if something was burning.

"High priest, several carts pulling fire oil also caught fire for some reason, there was an explosion, and the oil burned a lot of people, we are dealing with it!"

Garrigi's heart was furious, fire oil is a very tightly controlled material, it cannot be extinguished when it is exposed to water, and it is extremely effective in defending the city, how can it suddenly explode and be set on fire?

"Who's in charge of the oil?" Bring it here!" said Garrigi, exasperated. Although it may be a little troublesome to hurry up, the monk kills people at every turn, and the sudden explosion of fire oil is still too abnormal, and the impact will not be small. If it is not controlled quickly, it will cause even greater chaos and delay the speed of the team.

"Yes, my subordinates will ......," the great monk who had come to report leaned over and said this, and suddenly pulled out a short blade from his sleeve, and stabbed it into Gariji's chest like lightning when he couldn't make a move!

This kind of mutation Garrigi didn't expect it, he was annoyed, and he was paying attention to the chaotic place, and he didn't expect that the great monk who came to pay tribute to him, his subordinates, would suddenly attack him!
