The moonlight fell like frost on the ground inside and outside Mosong Pass.
In the south of the city fortress, war drums roared and torches shone in the sky.
Hundreds of thousands of Yihe troops were deployed in battle.
After their strategies failed one after another, Ding Xi and Long Qianlin, urged by Qin Yi, the commander-in-chief of the Yihe Kingdom, had to go to war head-on with Feng Jixing, who was guarding the three passes.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak" The axle rotation of the siege catapult makes an extremely unpleasant sound.
This is an improved catapult.
It is made entirely of steel and has a very sophisticated torsion system.
It can project a range of nearly 500 meters.
It is considered a piece of art from the Yihe Kingdom.
Secret weapon.
Ding Xi's eyes were cold, and he looked at the towering Mo Song Pass in the distance.
He raised his hand and said: "As soon as you enter the shooting range, launch the torch stone and burn down the Mo Song Pass.
I think Feng Jixing can withstand it." how long" "yes" A group of generals clasped their fists together, and the next moment, pieces of ignited stones were put into the trough of the catapult.
Torch stones, a kind of stone with a flammable surface, were wrapped in cotton and other materials.
After being poured with ebony oil, they burned fiercely. , with the loud noise of the catapult, torch stones soared into the sky, heading straight for Mo Song Pass “Bang bang bang” Most of the torches hit the city wall, but many also rolled into the city fortress, burning the soldiers inside the city and screaming.
"Extinguish fire" Feng Jixing walked on the corridor with his hand on the handle of the knife, and said with a livid face: "Everyone has been hidden for me, don't be easily hit by the torch stone.
The soldiers in the city brought water to put out the fire, and ordered people outside the city to quickly draw water from the nearest water source.
Water enters the city.”
"Yes, Commander" When he came to the edge of the city fortress, Feng Jixing stretched out his hand and pressed it on the battlement.
Looking at the rumbling fire in the distance, he couldn't help but feel worried.
The Yihe Kingdom had really begun to attack the city fortress.
Although the three passes were strong, they might not be able to hold on for too long.
Especially after the Yihe Kingdom used this new type of catapult, there were originally few water sources in the Qinling Mountains, making it difficult to extinguish fires.
Moreover, the interior of the fortress was made of wooden structures.
Once it was ignited, it would be difficult to save itself.
At this time, Tang Lan walked up the stone steps to the observation deck of the fortress with a cane and a violent cough.
"His Royal Highness the King of the Seven Seas."
Feng Jixing hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You are not in good health.
Why did you come up to the city in person?
Come down and rest quickly.
Leave the affairs here to me."
Tang Xi also said: "Yes, Your Highness, just leave the matters here to us."
"Do you all think I'm going to die from old age?"
Tang Lan smiled slightly, squinting at the hundreds of thousands of Lingnan soldiers, and couldn't help but sigh: "If the Bailing cavalry guarding the sword pavilion were the strongest in the Yihe Kingdom, In terms of soldiers, then the army of Ding Xi and Long Qianlin in front of you should be the second strongest army of Yihe Kingdom.
Commander Feng, are you confident in guarding the three passes?"
"No."
Feng Jixing said: "For more than three thousand years, the north and south of the Qinling Mountains have always been loyal to the imperial capital.
There have never been any wars in the Qinling Mountains.
Although Mo Songguan is a majestic horse, the war preparation materials are very scarce.
The walls are peeling off and have been in disrepair for a long time. , coupled with the newly developed catapults of the Yihe Kingdom, I am afraid that if they continue to attack like this, Mo Song Pass will collapse into ruins in less than ten days. " Tang Lan frowned: "So staying here for a long time is not an option.
Does Commander Feng have any ideas?"
"Yes, but I need help from the King of the Seven Seas."
"Oh what's the deal" Feng Jixing said seriously: "Your grandson Tang Lu is not dead.
He led an army of 300,000 to guard the Seven Passes.
He stopped moving forward and threatened that they would not obey the order unless there was a personal letter from you, the King of the Seven Seas.

It is said that Princess Xi has already gone to mobilize the demon army , just in case something unexpected happens.
So, please write a letter to me from the King of the Seven Seas.
I will immediately send people to summon Tang Lu to lead 300,000 elite soldiers.
As long as we have these 300,000 elite soldiers, we can turn our backs on guests and open the three levels.
Let’s go out of the city to fight Long Qianlin and Ding Xi’s army.”
"There are other things like this" Tang Lan smiled and said: "Perhaps the soldiers from Qihai City have been living in Qihai Province for a long time and can't stand the life in the south.
I heard that many soldiers are already sick and need to recuperate, so let's wait a little longer. , when they regain their fighting strength, veteran general I will naturally order them to go to the front line to fight against the demons and the Yihe Kingdom
.
"
Feng Jixing naturally knew what this old fox was thinking.
He was waiting, waiting for the empire to lose, or for both the Yihe Kingdom and the Demon Clan to suffer defeat.
In this way, Qihai City's 300,000 elite soldiers could attack Lanyan City with certainty. , became the new master of the empire.
Unfortunately, Tang Xiaoxi had already led the demon army to defend Lanyan City.
Tang Lan's wishful thinking would eventually come to nothing.
"In that case, let's wait."
A chill flashed through Feng Jixing's eyes, and he said: "Not long ago, we received military information from Canglin Valley.
The imperial army was defeated.
Su Long, the deputy governor of Yunzhong Province, was defeated and committed suicide.
The Shenwei Camp and the Iron Blade Army were also defeated.
Defeated and suffered heavy losses, I’m afraid the imperial army in Canglin Valley won’t be able to hold on for much longer.”
Tang Lan's face was full of sternness: "Don't worry, Commander Feng, Qihai City will send troops in two days."
"Well, when the empire is surviving or dying, I hope that Duke Lan will put the common people of the world first."
Feng Jixing looked at him deeply and said: "Once the imperial army is destroyed, the demons and the Yihe Kingdom will take advantage of the opportunity to invade.
I'm afraid The 300,000 elite soldiers in Qihai City will not help.
Your Highness is a businessman and you should not do any loss-making business."
Tang Lan remained silent, coughed twice violently, and said, "Here, help me down."
Looking at Tang Lan's retreating figure, Feng Jixing clenched his iron fist tightly and gritted his teeth with hatred.
Su Yu's voice was very cold, and she did not shy away from Tang Xi beside her, saying: "The empire's survival is at stake, but he is still hiding his power and biding his time.
I don't know if he had not been so pushy and perfunctory at the beginning.
I am afraid that the Yihe Kingdom would not have captured Lanyan City. " Feng Jixing didn't say anything, but Tang Xi smiled faintly: "When Duke Lan passed the buck, it seemed that Duke Yun in Muyu City also stood still.
Commander Su Yu should have been by Duke Yun's side at that time.
Don't you know what Duke Yun was thinking?"
"you" Su Yu turned pale with anger and bit her red lips, but did not argue with Tang Xi.
Feng Jixing took a deep breath and said: "No matter, wait two more days and see if Ayu and Longdan Camp can stop the demons.
If news of Ayu's defeat comes from the direction of Canglin Valley, Then I will leave my commanding flag at Mo Song Pass, and I will lead 30,000 imperial cavalry to reinforce Canglin Valley at full speed.
No matter what happens, nothing will happen to His Highness Yin."
Su Yu nodded: "Yeah" Tang Xi cupped his fists: "Don't worry, Commander Feng.
Even if I, Tang Xi, take my life, I will definitely not let Long Qianlin and Ding Xi break through the three levels."
Thousands of miles away, the sound of war drums rumbled on the road.
The eight-formation battle method composed of 45,000 men of the Gendan Battalion was like a tough wedge, nailing the nearly 200,000 Lei Chong Legion troops to the independent battlefield.
Dongfang of the Horned Beast Forest cannot make any progress.
The sky is white in the east, and the rising sun is about to burst out.
The soldiers of the Gentian Battalion have persisted all night, and almost everyone is exhausted.
"Tiger Wing Formation to Meet the Enemy" Wei Qiu raised his arms, his face covered with soot marks, and said solemnly: "Go to the Flame Black Turtle."
Immediately, more than a hundred employees of the Beast Taming Department of the Lanyan City Temple came out of the battle formation one after another, their palms filled with psychic power.

There were roars behind them, and the huge bodies of more than a hundred flame black turtles came out of the formation one after another.
These flame turtles curled up their bodies and protected themselves with flame armor.
Their bodies were filled with flames and they rushed towards the armored demon.
"Boom boom boom" Balls of flames shot up into the sky, and the demons screamed one after another.
The armored demon is originally afraid of fire, and its wings are flammable.
Even the body of the armored demon is flammable.
What's more, the flames spouted by the flame black turtle are not ordinary wildfires, but a kind of mysterious fire transformed by spiritual power.
Once the mysterious fire burns like this, there is no way for the armored demon to survive.
But the number of flame black turtles is limited after all, and the armored demon is very ferocious.
It rushes forward without fear of death, and blasts the battle ax and spear at the black turtle.
The sound of "bang bang bang" comes, and the black turtle shell Although it is hard, it is not invincible, and soon some black turtles were injured.
"Shout and break it" Among the crowd of armored demons, Lei Chong, wearing golden armor, appeared again.
The blood-red master's magic power lingered around the war hammer.
When the hammer fell, the body of a flame black turtle burst and died.
"Little Red"
In the eight formations, a temple employee howled miserably.
After channeling the beast, he could feel the pain and fear of the flame turtle's death.
This feeling was no different from his own death.
"The Gentian camp is going to be defeated" Zeng Yifan's eyes shot out a ray of light and said: "What should we do now?"
Lin Muyu said: "Retreat, all of them, the Gentian camp will stay in the rear."
"But" Qin Yin gritted her silver teeth, and golden ice crystals swirled around her palms, saying: "I'll stay.
With my strength, I can also help the Gendan camp.
Luo Xin, you protect grandpa and Shenhou as they retreat with the army."
"Yes" Luo Xin said, cupping her fists.
Lin Muyu didn't say much.
If Qin Yin wanted to stay, she would stay.
Anyway, she might not be able to fight in person in the next battle.
At this time, the eight formations formed by the soldiers of the Gentian Battalion were already crumbling.
Throughout the night, the soldiers in the eight formations suffered heavy casualties.
At least half of the 45,000 people were lost.
If they continue to fight, the entire army will inevitably be destroyed.
Fortunately, the damage to the demon clan was also very serious.
At least 30,000 armored demons were killed by the Eight Formation Diagrams that night, plus another 20,000 to 30,000 winged men, the damage to the Gentian Camp was already worth it.
Wei Qiu stood on the general platform and looked at Lin Muyu on the hillside in the distance.
Lin Muyu was also looking at him.
He raised his arm slightly and pointed in the north direction.
Wei Qiu suddenly became excited and said: "Beat the drum.
Withdraw your troops, mount your horses, and enter the valley to the north."
Lin Muyu also got on his horse with a long sword in hand and said: "Qin Yan, protect His Highness and just watch the battle here.
I'll go down and add fuel to the fire."
"Yes, big brother":
