The siege started very suddenly, with 50,000 monks and soldiers armed with Zen sticks, magic knives, shields and other weapons, they swept towards the pass like a rising tide; the siege started naturally, because they had gathered outside the pass for long At that time, the critical Guiyi Army soldiers had already finished preparing for the battle.
The winter sun is shining all day long, and the surrounding fields are bright and sunny. Billows of smoke and dust are billowing at the feet of the monks and soldiers who can't see the edge. They are waves of yellow sand and sand, and there is no exaggeration.
The city gate was trembling, the rammed-earth walls had a half-inch of fine dust, and wisps of fine sand rustled down.
It is not only Yangguan that is trembling, but the land outside the pass is also the same. The sound of neat footsteps overwhelms the sound of war drums, like thunder, and it penetrates into the brain through the ears as soon as Wu meets the face.
Six hundred steps is the coverage of the bed crossbow. There is no need to mark the position with arrows, and the generals in the middle of Qi training on the city wall can accurately judge the position of this line only with their eyes. When the front line of the monk soldiers crossed the line, they opened the school gate with a look of iron and eyes like a knife, and suddenly they opened their mouths and shouted.
"Bed crossbow, launch!"
At the head of the majestic and broad Yangguan city, there were no less than fifty bed crossbows lined up. With the loud shouts, the soldiers operating the bed crossbows smashed the hammers on the bed crossbows.
hum! The muffled sound of the crossbow string was violent and heavy. After the huge crossbow bolt flew straight out of the arrow slot, the crossbow string was still trembling violently in a small area. The sound of rumbling footsteps dissipated quite a bit, and when it fell in the ears, it had the power to make people's mind tremble.
Even in Li Ye's line of sight, the trajectory of the crossbow's arrow disappeared in a flash. Even though the monks rushing to the front were holding shields in their hands, their bodies still flew backwards suddenly! The crossbow pierced the shields in their hands, pierced their chests, and the huge force led them to overturn their companions behind them.
Among them were ten crossbow arrows, emitting a dazzling glare in the course of the route, like meteors falling into the sky, the tails of the light feathers dragged for a long time, but they went hundreds of steps away in the blink of an eye. The monks and soldiers blocking their advance route exploded into clusters of blood mist, connecting them in clusters, which is really beautiful.
Each cloud of blood mist is the explosion of a body, and the comet-like light feather, after more than ten steps into the formation, the light dissipates, revealing the true colors of the crossbow arrow. The crossbow hadn't finished its castration, when the chest was pinned to a monk soldier's chest, it came out from the back almost at the same time, and the monk behind was strung on the crossbow bolt.
A dazzling crossbow killed nearly ten monks, and the monk whose body exploded didn't even have time to scream; the monks were strung together by the crossbows inserted into the ground, and the expression of bewilderment and horror on the faces of the monks was so clear , as if engraved on it, it did not disappear in the end.
The originally neat queue revealed jagged gaps in an instant.
However, like the waves in the sea, these small gaps were filled by the turbulent sea in an instant, until the next wave of crossbow arrows came.
The violent roars of the generals and school rang out again from the top of the city. This time, not only the bed crossbow was showing its power, but more than two hundred Fuyuan crossbows with a range of 450 steps also joined the battle ranks angrily.
Hundreds of monks rushed to the front fell down in an instant, and their formation was very dense, which would have a great impact when they met the city, but at this time, almost all the crossbow arrows were shot in vain. In the hands of the monks, even a heavy crossbow like the Fuyuan Crossbow can display the ability of precise shooting.
The monk regiment was extremely fast, and the physical fitness of the monks was not comparable to that of ordinary troops. The fallen corpses of the front team were quickly submerged in the crowd and yellow dust, and there was no trace of them anymore. Even if all the teams ran past, there wasn't a single corpse to be seen on the ground, only scarlet "flowers", still eye-catching on the loess.
When the endless bald head approached the front of the city for more than a hundred steps, the sound of the city gate was like thunder, and the arrows and crossbows were as dense as locusts passing through. 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 ten bed crossbows, the magic weapon, really showed their ferocious fangs at this moment, and the bright feathers of Bi You flitted from the low sky, like a dragon sailing out of the sea, and the monks and soldiers blocking the range of the route were cleared out of the gap of dozens of steps. Blood filled the gap, leaving a straight red line on the ground.
By this time, there were no monks and soldiers below the fourth level of Qi training who dared to stand in front of the ten magical instruments, bed crossbows, and under active or passive actions, ten gullies appeared in the crowd. The monk's mobility is not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers, and the ten lines are as straight as if they were measured with a ruler.
However, among the large number of scarlet corpses, these ten gullies don't look very neat, but are full of indescribable treachery, like weird witchcraft cast by evil demons.
Even ordinary strong bows and crossbows are surprisingly lethal at this time, because they themselves are magical weapons. Among the white-clothed monks under the heavy rain, the bodies exploded or fell down, rendering countless red flowers in the white ocean, adding a lot of coquettishness to the picture.
Peng Zushan roared with a red neck, and asked the monks to quickly move the bed crossbow to a new position through a simple fixing device, so as to continue to exert its great function as a magic weapon of mass destruction.
Around each magic weapon bed crossbow, there is a complete team of monks to undertake guarding duties to ensure that the magic weapon bed crossbow will not be seized or destroyed in the next battle. So as long as there are enemies before the level, they will not stop roaring.
Li Ye drew out Lu Gujian.
Although the rear team of the monks was still hundreds of paces away, the front team had already reached the city. No matter how majestic and broad the city wall is, it is just a thin embankment in front of this turbulent white-clothed ocean, as if it will be swallowed by the rolling sea water in the next moment.
The first monk and soldier who jumped up to the top of the wall and appeared in front of Li Ye had a hulking back, a body height of more than nine feet, and a dark complexion, like a walking iron tower.
When he saw Li Ye, his eyes suddenly glowed fiercely. Relying on his mid-level Qi training, he let out a loud roar, and smashed down Li Ye's head with the gleaming magic shovel in his hand.
There is not just one such monk and soldier, but a group of monks.
In fact, this is the fighter in front of the monk regiment. They take on the task of attacking first, and they will be the first to jump up to the top of the city after approaching the city wall, relying on their good cultivation and fierce aura to kill all directions, and strive to gain a firm foothold on the top of the city, and meet more monks and soldiers behind. city.
It can be seen that even among the soldiers in the battle, the monk soldier in front of Li Ye is also a small boss. If he meets ordinary soldiers, or ordinary generals, maybe he will reap what he wants to win. results.
It's a pity that what he met now was Li Ye.
When Lu Jujian swept out, the pattern on the sword body did not light up, which showed that Li Ye had no intention of displaying the dragon power of its superb magic weapon, but just regarded it as a simple weapon. Even so, Lu Gujian still cut off the demon shovel in a flash, cut the neck of the monk soldier, and separated his body.
Whether it was the demon-subduing shovel or the blood-spitting neck of the fallen monk, the incisions were as smooth as a mirror.
The follow-up monks and soldiers kept rushing up. Li Ye held one hand behind his back and only held the sword with one hand. Even if he didn't deliberately use his powerful cultivation and didn't use any sword style, every time he swung the sword, he was still fast. You can't see the slightest trace.
In front of his nimble steps and agility, whether it is a monk climbing up the city or a soldier who leaps up directly, his head will fly horizontally at the first moment. Sometimes more than a dozen blood injections shoot up into the sky in succession, forming a fountain-like scene in front of him.
In this section of the city, there is only Li Ye alone.
Naturally, he didn't need helpers, whether it was an ordinary soldier or an ordinary general, standing by his side would only be in the way. With the same posture as him, there are Li Xian and Chu Nanhuai's master and apprentice. If the areas they are in charge of, these big monks, add up, they are already nearly half the length of the closed wall.
Here, they don't have any bows and crossbows to assist in the battle, and they only rely on the sword in their hands to kill the enemy and defend the city.
In this way, the limited defensive forces of Yangguan were effectively concentrated together, greatly stabilizing the battle situation.
Soon, Li Ye's movement around the top of the city was so fast that even afterimages could not be seen, and streaks of blood flew up behind him one after another, continuously. As for the screams, there was naturally no screams. Under his sword, the heads of monks and soldiers were all chopped off, and there was no time for screams.
However, although Li Ye's subordinates did not have a single enemy, taking the enemy's head was as easy as cutting leeks, but this couldn't bear the fact that the leeks germinated too fast. Even though Li Ye intentionally controlled the consumption of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy was still passing away at an appreciable speed because the area he was in charge of was quite large.
"You and I guard Yangguan, there is only one way to win, and that is to maximize the effect of every trace of spiritual energy."
Before the start of the battle, Li Xian once said to Li Ye, "Fifty thousand monks and soldiers are all monks. It is impossible to prevent them from taking over the city, and it is not realistic to prevent them from climbing to the top of the city. The soldiers of the Guiyi Army are doomed to defend Yangguan in this battle. I can't help it. The battle situation between our father and son and the master and disciple of Bailudong is the only factor that determines the outcome, and whether the aura in our body can support to repel the monk soldiers is the only key to the victory or defeat of the war."
What Li Xian said, Li Ye agrees with every word.
If this was an ordinary war, with the cooperation of Nangong No. 1 and the others, Li Ye would basically be able to win the war by rushing into the thousands of troops and beheading the enemy's commander. He has this ability, there is no doubt about it.
However, the current war is not an ordinary war.
The opponent is monk Shimen and the white-clothed monk corps, so of course this is a religious war. In the face of this form of war, beheading the opponent's coach is meaningless. Don't say that the opponent's coach has not shown his figure now, and it is even very possible that there is no such existence among the monk soldiers in front of him.
Even if there is, if the commander-in-chief is killed, there will be a deputy commander, and if the deputy commander is killed, there will be a general. If the general is killed, any diamond-level monk or even the highest-level qi-training monk will become the commander of the army.
The loyalty of religious believers and the fanaticism of religious wars will allow them to fight to the last.
The statement of one soldier at the end is a bit exaggerated, and there is still some discrepancy with reality, but the truth is definitely the same.
From the very beginning, this war has been a war of attrition, and the one who can persist until the end will be the winner.
...
Li Ye's massacre didn't last long, and a group of diamond-level monks appeared in front of him.
He glanced quickly, and saw that there were about 30 diamond-level monks in front of him, ranging from beginners to advanced ones.
Not only Li Ye had diamond-level monks in front of him, but Li Xian, Nangong No. 1, and Chu Nanhuai also had diamond-level monks in varying numbers. This is a battle that will inevitably happen. The King Kong Realm will always go into battle, and it is the choice they should make to eliminate the strong guards in a targeted manner.
Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang have already sacrificed the immortal mode, Fairy Guanghan is still so ethereal and sharp, blood will fly with every sword strike, and the giant spirit god is still so wild and wild, knocking an enemy into the air with every step.
If it is an ordinary war, monks with real strength will consciously fight in mid-air, in order to avoid hurting the innocent—the so-called innocent, of course, refers to their own people.
But now, Li Xian, Su Emei and others had to guard the critical moment to prevent the flood of monks from flooding into the city, so they did not leave the city.
The result of doing this is that the city wall was destroyed beyond recognition during the fierce battle, and the rammed earth city wall collapsed section by section in the blink of an eye. .
The low-level monks who wanted to find a gap to break into the city quickly paid the price with their bodies and lives.
All the monks in the Realm Realm present are almost all Yangshen Realmists. Although Li Wenwen and Liu Xiaohei's realm is lower, they are fighting side by side and guarding a defense zone together. , will suffer severe injuries in an instant, or even die on the spot.
In the eyes of Laojun's beings, saints are all ants. From the perspective of the fairyland, those who have not entered the fairy gate are all ants. In front of the monks of the real world and diamond realm, Qi training monks are also ants. High-level monks don't care too much about the lives of low-level monks, and this is the case at any time.
But the low-level monks are not fools. Knowing that they cannot get close to the battlefield of the big monks, they turn to seek to break through the front where they can try to break through.
As a result, the defense line of the city wall defended by the Guiyi army became more and more violent. In addition to the teams of burly and well-cultivated fighters constantly jumping up to the top of the city, low-level monks also climbed up the city wall one after another. .
The main force of the Guiyi Army was ordinary soldiers, but they were not afraid of the monks climbing the city. Under the leadership of their respective generals, they fought bloody and cruel hand-to-hand combat with the monks.
For ordinary people, monks seem to be worthy of respect, and eminent monks who have attained the Tao—for example, the level of high-level Qi training and the level of Vajra Realm, should be feared even more.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the so-called eminent monks have all kinds of supernatural powers. When they are alive, they can easily make people lose their minds. After death, they will transform themselves into relics.
But today is different.
Before the start of the war, when the monk corps just appeared outside the pass, Li Xian said something to them: "Everyone in the world says that you can disbelieve things about bodhisattvas, immortals, ghosts and gods, but you can't disrespect them. Many people regard this sentence as Gui Bian, I think this is indeed the case. But in my opinion, this is a nonsense bastard!
"Things that I don't believe in, things that I don't think exist, why do you make me respect? I respect the heavens, the ground, and people's hearts because these things really exist and are worthy of awe. Those things that don't exist, I have never seen or seen. What do I respect when I touch something, and where do I respect it
"They are all bloody men, with knives in their hands and armor on their bodies. They stand upright when they are born, and they have no shame in their hearts when they die. They are upright everywhere. Our awe is so worthless? Only slaves will be in awe of everything, because everything is more important than others. They are high-level! We are big men, we have gold under our knees, and our awe is of great value. It can be given to the emperor, the emperor, and the land, but there is no reason to give it to the enemy!
"The enemy appeared in front of us, we only need to do one thing, and that is to pick up the horizontal knife in your hand and cut him off! Those Taoists and monks spread this saying to deceive your awe and make you willingly Bow down to them! To liars, anyone with a brain should beat him so that his mother can't even recognize him!
"Remember, you are the frontier army of the Tang Dynasty! The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are invincible in the world. Gods block and kill gods, and Buddhas block and kill Buddhas!"
The generals of the Guiyi Army felt that this sentence was very reasonable, not only because it had a clear cause and effect, but also because it came from Li Xian.
Who is Li Xian? Of course, the Guiyi Army didn't know that he was Old An Wang, but every soldier of the Guiyi Army knew that he was the great monk who had fought bloody battles with them in Yangguan for many years, and he was a great righteous man who sincerely 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 the Guiyi Army who are fighting in formation, everyone is full of fighting spirit, holding their shields tightly in their hands, holding their horizontal knives high in their hands, drawing their strong bows to the full, and stabbing their spears fiercely in their hands. Liar bald ass!
Just now, their bed crossbows have killed thousands of monks, and their strong bows have killed thousands of monks. Whether it is an ordinary bald donkey or a Taoist bald donkey, as long as their necks are cut off, they can only fall in a pool of blood Zhong remained motionless.
Once the soldiers of the Guiyi Army are brave enough to die, they will burst out with the powerful combat power they should have.
Their personal strength is indeed not as good as that of the Shimen monks, but the reason why the Tang army is invincible has never relied on the combat power of fighting alone. If you want to fight this, the Tibetans who grew up in the bitter cold of the plateau are better at it. What they are really powerful is the comprehensive strength of armor, bows, weapons, and battle formations.
They fought endlessly with the monks on the horse path, fought bloody battles with the monks on the corridor, and fought for every inch of ground with the monks behind the city wall. Five people formed an array, ten people depended on each other, and a hundred people played a role. Pay a heavy price!
From the moment Li Ye noticed that there were more than 30 Vajra Realms in his line of sight, he keenly discovered that the opponent was going to take advantage of the number of people and use the powerful formation of Shimen to compress his range of activities and trap his combat power. Exercising, consuming his aura, so that he can only drink his hatred on the spot in the end.
Without any hesitation, Li Ye raised the Son of Heaven sword in front of his eyebrows, and a raging blue flame suddenly rose from the blade, and a burst of dragon energy shot up into the sky in an instant, "Lotus grows every step of the way!"
As an existence at the peak of the Yangshen Daoist Realm, Li Ye was not comparable to ordinary Diamond Realm monks in terms of strength or speed, not even a high-level Diamond Realm monk.
