What happened
"Earth, earth dragon, the earth dragon is turning over!"
This happened too suddenly. At this time, except for the patrol soldiers, almost no one was awake. When the earth dragon turned over, some light sleepers were awakened. Their minds were still confused. The ground beneath them cracked and collapsed, and fireworks shot straight into the sky.
The fire was also powerful.
Basically, wherever it touches, it will burn.
The Ten Wu Kings all followed the example of the other countries within the Great Wall. The core buildings were mostly made of luxurious and precious wood. Families with slightly more ordinary financial conditions still used processed cowhide and sheepskin to carefully sew several layers inside and outside, and then covered them with thick cloth curtains.
Families with slightly better financial conditions would use air-dried and hardened coarse cloth, and would apply several layers of oil on it to protect it from wind and rain.
In a nutshell, everything is flammable.
The earth dragon turned over, the fire dragon was born, and even more terrible was that countless fist-sized sparks fell from the sky, covering almost the entire inner city. This fire was not just "one flower blooming alone", but "blooming everywhere". It was too late to put out the fire. What was even worse was that the tremors became stronger and stronger. Many people were crushed by collapsed tents and beams in their sleep. The raging fire pounced on them like a ferocious beast smelling blood.
"Wake up! The earth dragon is turning over!"
“Ahh—”
“Help—”
"Fire, fire, fire—"
Those who managed to climb out were also forced to flee in panic because of the fire. Because the earth dragons kept tossing and turning, they could not maintain their bodies at all and could fall down if they were not careful. For a time, terror spread and the city was filled with screams of fear and pain.
When the Shiwu King City was first built, it was also considered that it was easy to leak water, so relatively complete countermeasures were set up. However, all these measures had little effect in the face of this emergency. The earth dragon turned over and the divine fire from the sky lasted for a full thirty breaths.
The inner city of Shiwu was in chaos and a sea of fire.
The soldiers guarding the capital of the Ten Crows were naturally also affected, but most of them were well-trained young and strong men with much faster reaction speeds than ordinary people. After experiencing the initial bewilderment and the sacrifice of a small number of unlucky guys, they quickly stabilized.
However, stability does not mean that we can successfully gather manpower.
Most of the soldiers were ordinary people who were used to following orders. In this chaotic situation, they were all burned so badly that they couldn't even recognize their own mothers, let alone recognize their superiors in a chaotic and noisy environment. Should they put out the fire first, or figure out the hidden enemy first? Or should they do both at the same time? If they had to do both, who would put out the fire and save people, and who would go to meet the enemy and kill people
This all happened so fast.
While most of them were still confused and busy putting out the fires around them, the ground that had finally calmed down began to shake again. The shaking became stronger and stronger, and they could faintly hear the roars of strange cows one after another.
"What is that thing!"
"Ghost, will-o'-the-wisp!"
"The will-o'-the-wisp is coming—"
As the responses increased, more and more people saw flames suspended in the air, rising and falling rapidly towards them.
At first there was just one, then two, three, four... the sparks gathered into a brilliant sea of fire.
Looking closely again, what kind of will-o'-the-wisp is this
They are clearly cows with fire coming out of their tails!
The cows howled miserably, their eyes were mad, and at a glance, there were probably more than a thousand of them! The soldier closest to them only had time to let out a scream as he was trampled to death by the hooves of the mad cows one after another.
Even those who were not dead had half of their bodies chopped off by a single blow from the enemies who followed the Fire Bull Formation and died completely.
By the time someone hurriedly tried to intercept them, the group of mad bulls with burning tails had already rushed nearly a hundred feet into the camp.
"Who dares to stop me!"
"Kill them all!"
Behind the Fire Bull Formation, a warrior jumped high, and with his weapon in his hand, he rushed towards the defensive wall set up by the enemy, slashing it down with one blow. His martial energy was pouring out, and the 40-meter-long giant blade broke through the hastily set up defense with one blow. With this man clearing the way, the Fire Bull continued to charge forward.
Wherever they passed, corpses were strewn and fireworks were reignited.
The brave warrior in armor was Xian Yujian, who led the army, while the scholar who commanded the fire bull formation was unexpected—neither Gu Chi nor Jiang Sheng, but Shen Tang, who had been holding a sword. Jiang Sheng and Gu Chi were responsible for triggering the earth dragon to turn over, and they seized the opportunity, created chaos, and coordinated with various places, and then there was a very embarrassing situation.
Lin Feng followed Xu Quan and Bai Su's group.
Gu Chi and Jiang Sheng have to maintain the earth dragon.
The main force is missing a scholar who can lead the team.
Shen Tang was just thinking about squeezing Jiang Sheng as much as possible - after all, this fellow had a great talent for literature and had a lot of literary reserves. He believed that he could do the work of two people if he gritted his teeth and kept an eye on all directions. Unexpectedly, Jiang Sheng and Gu Chi looked at Shen Tang at the same time.
Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face
Gu Chi lowered his eyes and glanced at the Wen Xin seal on Shen Tang's waist, smiled with some ill intentions, and spoke slowly.
The scholar of literature you are looking for is not here
Shen Tang scratched his head: Who
Gu Chi uttered ruthlessly: Isn’t it my lord
Shen Tang was stunned by the question.
Ah, this—
It took me a while to realize that I am also a scholar of literature, but—real women never play supporting roles!
Gu Chi teased: My lord, at best you can only be considered a girl who has not yet reached marriageable age, not a 'real woman'.
Shen Tang: ... But isn't our plan to attack both the sky and the ground? Who is responsible for the attack in the sky
Jiang Sheng, who had been silent all this time, said lightly: Sheng!
Except for not being able to use the Word Spirit that Shen Tang loved to use to transform food, it was not difficult to crack and learn other Word Spirits. In addition, Shen Tang never meant to hide her skills, so Jiang Sheng would naturally be able to do it. Relying on the advantage of Wen Palace, the power he exerted was even stronger than hers!
Shen Tang: ... You are forcing a warrior to become a writer!
No matter how Shen Tang struggled, the plan was set, but before the battle, Gu Chi and Jiang Sheng privately told Xian Yujian to "be self-reliant" as much as possible. His master was not a serious scholar, and he seemed a little unreliable.
The boy who was reminded nodded seriously.
His master was only a half-baked scholar, so he was mentally prepared. Perhaps because he had no expectations, he was pleasantly surprised. Shen Tang said, "Real women never play supporting roles," but she was also very skilled in using the most basic words of a scholar, and even the Fire Bull Formation, which was crucial in the sneak attack, was a natural move. Moreover, she used it more insidiously than other scholars!
She stepped on the back of a cow at the end of the team.
He raised his hand and waved: "Girls, charge!"
Charge and kill without stopping in the enemy camp!
They would charge wherever there were more people, and they would fight for an opportunity to "stand firm", not giving the enemy any chance to gather their forces. As long as the troops could not gather, they could not form an effective fighting force, and the harvest would be smoother.
The soldiers who were possessed by Xian Yujian's armor followed closely on both sides of the rear wing of the Fire Bull Formation, while the other soldiers held long spears, raised shields for protection, or shot arrows with bows. Each of them was like chicken blood, and a few thousand of them dared to directly attack tens of thousands of people!
