Dianxia Qingcheng - Chapter 209

The night wind suddenly picked up, and the robes on the city wall were blown by the wind.

“My lord _____! Commander _____!”

The cheers didn’t last long, and some soldiers rushed to the city wall to report.

Liu Yi grabbed the person and said loudly, “What are you panicking about! Stand firm and talk about it!”

The soldier finally calmed down, “Outside the city, a barbarian army was found outside the city, there are hundreds of thousands of people! There is only one stick of incense from the city gate!”

“what!”

Liu Yi quickly stood on the edge of the city wall, staring at the silent darkness with a grim expression.

The people beside him heard the news but didn’t react at all. Liu Yi turned his head and asked, “Sir! Are you really, do you want to stay here?”

Standing in the dark, Pei Zheng only lifted his eyelids and glanced at the two of them. His eyes were calm and indifferent, and he didn’t seem to be moved by such an urgent situation at all.

“Give me a bow.” Pei Zheng said.

Liu Yi handed it over and sent a specially made feather arrow, which could shoot 100 meters away and was full of lethality.

Pei Zheng held the bow in his left hand and the feather arrow in his right hand. He dipped some black oil in the oil tank next to him, and then the bowstring was full, like a crescent moon ready to go, ready to head towards the scorching sun at any time.

Seeing this, Liu Yi gave an order, and all the other archers also climbed the city wall, hiding behind the hole in the wall, revealing only sharp arrows.

It was quiet all around, and the sound of the wind could be heard from a distance.

Suddenly, the city wall began to tremble faintly, and a few soldiers who noticed it looked to both sides blankly, not knowing what happened.

Afterwards, the vibration became more and more intense, and I saw a black wave coming up not far away.

No, it’s not a wave, the black mist that moves fast and orderly connecting the horizon is an army.

The barbarian soldiers did not wear their national costumes, all of them were dressed in black, and their running movements were uniform, like the evil spirits from hell, rushing towards the imperial city.

A heavy and almost depressing atmosphere began to spread on the walls of the imperial capital. Everyone watched the black tide coming. The tiny imperial capital was like a small duckweed leaf on the sea. It was directly swallowed and submerged by the huge wave, without even leaving a trace.

The archers on the city wall were temporarily standing still, the distance was too far, and it was too dark, their vision was blurred, and there was no way to aim.

The barbarian army stopped not far from the Imperial City, but before the Imperial City had a chance to breathe, a group of soldiers attacked first. They pushed huge slings and wooden stakes used to break through the city gate. Go forward, and soon you will reach the gate of the city.

The soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty who had been ambushed outside the city earlier rushed out and caught the barbarian army by surprise. They quickly killed most of the small group of soldiers and lost only a small amount of troops.

But before all the soldiers in the squad were killed, another group of barbarian soldiers came up immediately.

In this way, there was a steady stream of new barbarian soldiers who were trying their best to fill their positions, and the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty outside the city were exhausted after a while.

But even if there was only one soldier left, he fought to the end.

The sound of fighting outside the city suddenly returned to calm as the last soldier fell.

It’s just a brief rest after death.

The barbarian soldiers continued pushing the catapults and stakes.

Pei Zhengshou’s arrow has been pointed firmly in the direction of the enemy, no matter what happened below, he didn’t take half of his eyes.

Suddenly, I only heard a sound of “咻”, and a long and thick feathered arrow flew out from the high city wall. The speed was so fast that I could not see the direction of the arrow body at all, but only saw the moonlight. He skipped a black shadow, like a bird with wings, and plunged straight into the black wave.

When the bird was in the air, it suddenly caught fire. The black oil dipped in it wiped the air and ignited, turning into a huge bright fireball. When it was directly above the barbarian army, it scattered again and divided into a pile of small fireballs. The fireball fell.

These fireballs fell directly on the bodies of many barbarian soldiers, and under the promotion of the black oil, they quickly ignited the black military uniforms.

Holding the bow, Pei Zheng stood on the city wall with cold eyes, looking at the small group of barbarian troops that were rioting on the opposite side.

cut off the feet!

He whispered.

Immediately, there was heat, and the feather arrow dipped in black oil was directly handed over. Pei Zheng fluently loaded the arrow and pulled the string. When the feather arrow flew out, it was shot along with countless small feather arrows.

A bright wall of fire flew over from the city wall of the Imperial City. The barbarian army was so dense that it was too late to retreat and dodge. Many soldiers were directly burned to death by the falling fireball.

The archers of the Celestial Dynasty shot one arrow after another, and each arrow was filled with flying stars.

The barbarian soldiers were also inspired to fight and activated their slings. Pieces of huge stones were thrown onto the city wall, killing many archers, and the city wall was breached one by one.

At the same time, more barbarian soldiers rushed up screaming, using ropes and bamboo ladders to climb the city wall, while hitting the city gate with wooden stakes.

The loud sound of “dong dong dong” was like a hammer hitting the hearts of every soldier of the Celestial Dynasty. Every time the hammer hit, their hearts would skip a beat.

The city walls were already full of blood and corpses, and there were even limbs and brains splashing around.

The sturdy imperial city gate was also knocked open, and a large number of barbarian soldiers swarmed in immediately to fight against the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty in the city.

Due to the large number of barbarian soldiers, the Celestial soldiers quickly became overwhelmed.

Some barbarian soldiers ran to the streets of the imperial capital and started to slaughter from house to house. When they were killing people, the expressions on their faces were very gruesome, and they seemed to have lost their minds. Burned by hand.

At the same time, some barbarian soldiers climbed the high city walls.

In an instant, the sound of fighting, the sound of swords, the sound of mourning, the sound of burning fire, and the sound of flesh and blood being cut by sharp weapons resounded over the entire imperial city.

This is no longer a capital city, but a purgatory on earth.

Several barbarian soldiers also rushed up beside Pei Zheng. Before they could raise their machetes, their throats were cut by the feather arrow in Pei Zheng’s hand. dropping.

Pei Zheng wiped it off with the back of his hand, looked up at the scarlet sticky blood on the back of his hand, and then jumped off the city wall, [entering the slaughtering crowd.

He used his sword quickly and fiercely, and soon there were mountains of corpses around him. The more people he killed, the more people rushed towards him.

Then, a small encirclement was formed directly around Pei Zheng, and layers of barbarian soldiers surrounded him.

Killed one layer, and another layer, as if endless.

Suddenly, the encirclement was torn open from the outside, Liu Yi broke in with a sword, and it took a lot of energy to kill Pei Zheng.

“Your Excellency” Liu Yi was already painted on his body, but his face seemed to be fine, he killed an enemy with one sword, “Other city gates were also lost, and

And there are already enemy troops rushing to the palace! What should we do now! “

Pei Zheng’s eyes narrowed, and a sword pierced a soldier’s throat.

There was a dark horse in the corner next to it, Pei Zheng moved slowly over, then got on the horse, passed the crowd, and hurried to the palace.

Along the way, you can see the corpses of the people piled up on both sides of the road. The bluestone path was dyed red by the blood that gathered, and the rabbit lotus lanterns that were originally hanging on the tree with white and bright red lights were all pulled by people. After getting down, after being soaked in blood, he casually threw it on the ground and trampled it.

Suddenly, Pei Zheng’s eyes narrowed, and an arrow suddenly flew out from the alley beside the road, almost shooting him.

Fortunately, an arrow also flew behind him, knocked the arrow into the air, and at the same time as the two arrows fell to the ground, Pei Zhengshou’s sword also flew towards the dark alley, and there was a muffled hum and a man. The sound of falling to the ground.

Pei Zheng looked back, it turned out to be the little archer who saved his life, and now he is smiling proudly at him.

Pei Zheng also smiled slightly with the corners of his lips raised.

Unexpectedly, another arrow shot straight from behind the little archer. Pei Zheng didn’t see the arrow until the little archer was shot to the ground and died.

At this time, thick black smoke ignited in the palace not far away, soaring into the sky.

Pei Zheng rode his horse and ran wild again.

He clenched the reins tightly with his fingers, his eyes full of bleak and fierce killing intent.

The Imperial Palace.

The tranquility was broken by a shrill scream, and then there were wailing and cries one after another from all the palaces.

There was a mess everywhere, some were looted by the barbarians, and some were stolen by the maids and eunuchs who escaped from the palace.

Wherever the barbarians went, they only left blood and corpses everywhere.

When the palace gate was breached, Qi Yirou stayed with Qi Bingzhi.

At this last moment, the two sisters who once hated each other were finally able to say a few words calmly.

The two agreed to kill themselves by taking the poison together. Before the poison could be swallowed, the voice of a barbarian soldier came from outside the temple gate.

Before they broke through the door, Qi Bingzhi blocked the door with her body, buying time for Qi Yirou to put the medicine down, but she didn’t have time to take the poison herself.

After those wild beast-like barbarians entered the door, they did not kill Qi Bingzhi directly, but dragged her to the inner hall with several people.

After a long time, the few barbarian soldiers laughed and walked away, not forgetting to make a knife on Qi Yirou, who was already dead.

Inside the inner hall, there was chaos.

Qi Bingzhi’s eyes were already dyed red with blood. Those people didn’t let her die. She struggled to climb out of the inner hall, and there was a blood trail.

She climbed to Qi Yirou’s side and closed her eyes for her.

Then, there was no sound.

This atrocity in the palace only lasted for a stick of incense, and everything has returned to calm.

A serenity built on ruin and death.
