Chapter 863 Encouraged by the thunderstorm, the soldiers of the Feng army returned to the city and engaged in a fierce confrontation with the Zhen army.
As the saying goes, one person is desperate, ten people are invincible, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the wind army are desperate, and their momentum is also terrifying.
On the contrary, the Zhen army began to be uncomfortable, they have captured the city wall of Wancheng, which is equivalent to destroying the city defense of the wind army, victory is in sight, people's hearts are complacent, and at this time the wind army suddenly launched a fierce counterattack, which caught the Zhen army off guard.
Especially Lei Zhen, who took the lead, the whirring wind of the Kaitian War Halberd, and the Zhen soldiers in front of him fell one after another in a pool of blood.
The wind army led by Lei Zhen followed the steps of the city wall, forced a bloody road, returned to the city wall, and started hand-to-hand combat with the Zhen army.
The Feng army, which was defeated by one blow just now, turned into a tiger-like warrior in the blink of an eye, and the soldiers of the Zhen army couldn't understand what was going on, as the wind army became more and more courageous, the Zhen army that climbed to the head of the city gradually became difficult to parry, and was forced to retreat again and again.
The Zhen army only retreated slightly, but this was equivalent to a shot in the arm for the wind army, it turned out that the Zhen army was not invincible, and it could be defeated.
The fighting spirit of the Wind Army was completely aroused, and the people roared and roared and rushed forward to kill, and a large number of Zhen soldiers fell under the swords of the Wind Army, and some people were forced to squeeze off the city wall, screaming and falling to the city.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Xun Xiao hurriedly separated his own crowd and pushed to the front.
As soon as he showed his head, Lei Zhen touched him.
Xun Xiao was stunned for a moment, then grinned, and said: "I didn't drop you to death just now, I see where you are fleeing this time" As he spoke, the Open Heaven Axe in his hand was raised high, making a gesture to chop down.
Before he could make a move, Lei Zhen took the lead, and as soon as he came up, he used a trick to press the bottom of the box, and the ten thousand blades meteor slashed the extreme.
Since the opponents were all enemy troops, Lei Zhen had no worries when he released his skills, and used all his strength.
I saw that the light above the city was shining, and then a huge spiritual blade seven or eight feet high was born, and when the stone bricks on the ground were cut, the stone bricks cracked one by one, and the stone chips flew sideways, accompanied by a terrifying whistling sound.
Xun Xiao was taken aback by the oncoming Ten Thousand Blades Meteor Slash, and in a hurry, he didn't have time to think about it, he subconsciously used his spirit to deal with it.
The two top-level spiritual martial arts skills collided on the city wall, and with a muffled bang, the huge spirit blades released by Lei Zhen shattered, turning into countless small spirit blades flying in the sky, and the spirit blades born from the spirit chaos pole were staggered and collided in the air, some canceled each other out and scattered invisible, but there were still some spirit blades that passed through the spirit chaos pole and flew straight towards Xun Xiao.
Oh, Xun Xiao screamed in his heart, it was not good, his own spirit chaos was extremely unexpectedly not blocking the opponent's skills, seeing that one after another spirit blades flew closer, and then wanted to block, it was already too late, Xun Xiao had no choice but to go out horizontally.
He dodged the blade, but he himself fell off the wall and out of the city. thump Xun Xiao's huge body fell to the ground, making a heavy muffled sound, the force of this fall, almost made his bones scatter, he gasped twice, and then struggled to stand up, raised his eyes to look at the thunder on the head of the city, roared angrily, and looked around for the ladder, to go up and fight with the other party again.
However, as Xun Xiao fell off the city wall, the soldiers and generals behind could no longer resist Lei Zhen and others, people were shocked in their hearts, and they were defeated and retreated, at the same time, Wu Mei on the city gate tower also saw the wind army counterattack back to the city, her spirit was shocked, covered with spiritual armor, holding a sword, went down to the city gate, and led the guards at the bottom to rush out together.
There is a wind army in front, and there is a wind army in the back, and the Zhen army on this section of the city wall is completely chaotic, people push each other, and countless people fall into the city.
Xun Xiao under the city just found a ladder, and only halfway up to climb, he was smashed down by the wind army that reoccupied the city.
He roared in anger and screamed again and again, and before he could continue to climb, arrows rained down on the city, clanging on his spiritual armor.
Xun Xiao, who had cultivated so deeply, couldn't resist the condescending shot, and the arrows hit his spirit armor, causing him to retreat step by step.
Under the sharp counterattack of the wind army, the Zhen army on this wall was completely unable to parry, and a large number of soldiers were either killed in battle or were taken off the city wall.
The wind army led by Lei Zhen rushed to the front of the city gate tower and joined Wu Mei and others.
Lei Zhen hadn't seen Wu Mei cover the spirit armor, and he didn't recognize her, until Wu Mei opened her mouth to speak, Lei Zhen knew that the general in front of him with the red spirit armor was Mrs.
He hurriedly intervened to give a salute, and said breathlessly: "The last general is too late to save the car, so that the lady is frightened" Seeing the current thunder shock, Wu Mei's eyes turned red, and tears almost fell.
Lei Zhen was covered in blood all over his body, the original color of the spirit armor was completely covered by blood, and his body was also scarred, and the spirit armor in many places had been broken and fallen off, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
"General Lei, don't say that, if you don't lead the army back in time, I'm afraid the palace will have to decide itself in the city gate tower."
Lei Zhen sighed secretly in his heart, if this is the case, he will not be able to see the king again He breathed for a while, raised his eyes to look at the city wall on the other side of the city gate tower, grabbed the halberd of the open sky, and said: "Madam, there are still enemy troops remaining in the city, and the last general will go to retreat from the enemy" After speaking, he looked back at the soldiers behind him, and shouted: "Brothers, kill the enemy with me" "Kill" At this time, the confidence of the wind army was getting stronger and stronger, and the morale was getting higher and higher, and the people shouted in unison, followed the thunder shock, and then killed the city wall on the other side.
This battle, from the morning to the evening, during the period, the Zhen army has attacked the city several times, but was successfully counterattacked by the wind army several times, the two sides of the city wall has been fierce to the extreme, to the end, the casualties of the two armies have been too many to count, inside the city, outside the city and on the city wall, the corpses are stacked, piled up.
So far, both the Feng army and the Zhen army have suffered heavy casualties, and the soldiers are exhausted.
Even Li Cheng, who was so fierce and tough, couldn't fight anymore, and it was getting dark, so he reluctantly ordered the whole army to suspend the attack and retreat back to the camp.
The Zhen army did not camp outside Wancheng at all, because people firmly believed that the capture of Wancheng was enough time for one day, and it was a waste of strength to set up camp, but they did not expect that the defenders of Wancheng would resist so stubbornly that they did not let themselves enter the city.
The retreating Zhen army was so tired that they could not walk, but even so, people had to finish camping before they could rest.
As the battle came to an end, both sides were seizing time to recuperate and count their casualties.
The first battle, not lightly wounded, only seriously wounded and killed soldiers, the wind army has more than 23,000 people, the Zhen army is also above 20,000, after a battle, the wind army's combatable personnel have been reduced by half, and the loss of the Zhen army is close to one-third, so it is not difficult to see the intensity of this battle.
The ratio of casualties between the two sides was close to 1 to 1, which was completely acceptable as the attacking side, but this was the first time that the Zhen army had suffered a setback since the battle entered the wind, and it was invincible.
On the first day, they barely blocked the attack of the Zhen army, but Wu Mei, Zong Yuan, and Lei Zhen were not happy, they knew in their hearts that in tomorrow's battle, with their current remaining troops, it would be difficult to resist the attack of the Zhen army.
After the Zhen army retreated, the Feng army began to clean up the battlefield, leaving the corpses of the Zhen soldiers on the city wall directly outside the city, and the corpses of their own soldiers gathered inside the city.
By this time, the stone bricks on the walls were no longer gray, but had turned black-brown, the color of blood congealing.
Wu Mei inspected the city wall, her brows tightened, whether this battle should be fought in the end, whether Wancheng should stick to it, her heart was also shaking.
Whenever there is a way out, Wumei will definitely choose to give up without hesitation, but the problem is that there is no way to retreat now, withdraw from Wancheng, and then Yancheng, Yancheng is much larger than Wancheng, and it is easier for the enemy to attack, which is by no means something that can be defended by 20,000 or 30,000 people.
Seeing Wu Mei's preoccupied appearance, Lei Zhen had an indescribable feeling in his heart, both admiring and feeling distressed, he admired Wu Mei's firmness and instability on the battlefield, but the burden of guarding the capital and resisting strong enemies fell on her as a woman, which made people sigh.
Lei Zhen untied the outer curtain behind his back, handed it to Wu Mei, and said in a low voice: "Madam, the weather is too cold at night, be careful of catching a cold." ” Wu Mei didn't answer, the weather was very cold, but her heart was as anxious as fire.

She said faintly: "I just got the news that the Tongmen army divided 100,000 troops and returned to the capital to rescue. ” Lei Zhen's eyes lit up, this is a great thing Seeing his thoughts, Wu Mei smiled wryly and continued, "However, it will take ten days for the army to reach the capital. ” Lei Zhen's original excited mood instantly fell back to the bottom, ten days with his current strength and combat strength, how could he resist the enemy for ten days Ten days later, Wancheng is gone, maybe even the capital is gone, what is the use of the Tongmen army coming back He hung his head and was silent.
Wu Mei sighed softly and said, "General Lei, you have been fighting hard for a day, go and rest early."
Lei Zhen hurriedly shook his head and said, "Madam, the last general will not be tired" After a pause, he took two steps forward, approached Wumei, lowered his voice, and asked, "Madam, do we still want to stick to Wancheng?"
If you don't stick to it, what can you do Wu Mei looked outside the city and muttered: "When I left the capital, I already said that I would swear to live and die with Wancheng" Lei Zhen was stunned for a moment, understood the meaning of the dance, his face was straight, he cheered up, and intervened in Shi Li: "The last general swears to follow his wife and resist the strong enemy together."
Dancing and happy, being able to find Lei Zhen, a general, can be said to be her biggest gain from Wancheng, but I don't know if they can leave Wancheng alive.
Inadvertently found that Zong Yuan was silent beside him, Wu Mei turned her head to look at him, only to see Zong Yuan looking at the sky, not knowing what he was looking at.
Wu Mei also raised her head and looked at the sky, the night sky was dark, and she couldn't even see a star, she asked, "Master Zong, what are you thinking":
