Chapter 172 - Rewrest Tongguan s
Snow swirled in the air as the world was filled with pure white!
Even in the dark night, a faint white light could be seen!
But on this cold night, the fifty thousand over Imperial Guards attacked the Tongguan!
Countless cloud ladders were set up there, as the Expeditionary soldiers began to climb!
The elites of the women's army, even in the middle of the night, were discovered by the women's army who were guarding the as soon as the Imperial Guard appeared. Under the lead of a female True centurion, over five thousand female True Soldiers arrived on top of the city walls, blocking the attacks from below.
This female True centurion's name was Wan Yanfeng, he was already over forty years old, and was the first batch of Nvzhen to follow Wan Yanaguda in battle! He had never learned any martial arts, but in the course of his battles in the south and north, he had experienced countless battles and had already entered the Xiantian realm! In fact, his martial arts skills were not much worse than those female true warriors. The only regret was that his intelligence was inferior to those female true warriors!
Looking at the densely packed Expeditionary soldiers s crawling out below, Wan Yanfeng's face revealed a trace of disdain!
"A while ago, the Chang'an City sent an envoy. They said that the Han Chinese had defeated General Wan Yanhuonv, and I definitely won't believe that! Although General Wan Yanhuonv was only eighteen years old, he had been a martial arts expert since young, and was proficient in strategy. Even the Great Ancestor Emperor had praised him as a genius general of his generation! The Chinese are just a weak and incompetent race. How could they defeat General Wan Yanhuonv? " Wan Yanfeng thought.
The so called Great Ancestor Emperor was Wan Yanaguda! In the past, Wan Yanhuonv was once praised by Wan Yanaguda, which earned him a lot of fame! Although Wan Yanhuonv was not very old, she was already very famous in the Nvzhen! Just like the other Nvzhen s, Wan Yanfeng looked down on the Han Chinese and did not believe the news of Wan Yanhuonv's defeat at all!
Huge rocks fell down from the Tongguan's city walls. Countless soldiers were beaten till their heads bled from the impact! Countless soldiers fell down while screaming! Seeing this scene, Wan Yanfeng laughed out loud.
Finally, a Expeditionary soldiers crawled out, and right in front of Wan Yanfeng, Wan Yanfeng let out a cold laugh, and used the treasure sword in his hand, immediately chopping off that Expeditionary soldiers's head!
A few more Expeditionary soldiers also crawled out, but they were all easily killed by Wan Yanfeng!
"Chinese, incompetent people! Although I do not know how you arrived at the bottom of Tongguan, but wanting to take down Tongguan City was simply a dream! " Wan Yanfeng sneered.
However, at this moment, a ladder was set up once again! He saw a black shadow step on the cloud ladder, his body quickly moving upwards! In almost the time of a single breath, he had already arrived at half of the Tongguan's city walls!
The Tongguan was the most important checkpoint to the Central Plains and the walls were extremely high. The fact that he was able to reach half of the walls in such a short period of time showed how good his lightness skills were! He then moved her feet and got closer and closer to the top!
Wan Yanfeng was surprised, he immediately extended his hand to push the ladder, and immediately saw the ladder falling towards him!
"Haha, lowly Han, go to hell!" Wan Yanfeng laughed loudly.
A moment later, his smile suddenly froze! The escalator below had already fallen down, but the black shadow was still on the city wall!
The black figure held an iron spear in his hand. At this moment, the iron spear had already pierced into the city walls. It was this iron spear that was holding his body up!
The shadow suddenly pulled out the iron spear and flew up again. When he was still a quarter of a meter away from the top, the iron spear in his hand moved again and once again stabbed into the city wall!
Wan Yanfeng who was above revealed a shocked expression, this man relied on just an iron spear to climb up the Tongguan's wall, this was simply unbelievable! He had never seen or heard of this kind of martial arts!
"Damn it!" Wan Yanfeng snorted, he suddenly grabbed a huge boulder and threw it towards the black figure!
He was an Upper Sky warrior and had great strength!
Just as the boulder was about to hit the black shadow's body!
Suddenly, the shadow's palm struck towards the sky!
A massive palm imprint appeared in the sky. Then, with a loud 'boom', the boulder was shattered to pieces!
The black figure flew up again, and then a sharp spear Qi rushed towards Wan Yanfeng!
Wan Yanfeng suddenly reached out his hand to grab the spear, but the energy contained in the spear was too strong, Wan Yanfeng's body involuntarily took a step back!
The black figure lashed out again, and Wan Yanfeng took another step back!
When the black figure shot out the third time, Wan Yanfeng was suddenly standing there! There were no injuries on his body, but blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth. His face gradually paled, and both of his eyes lost their color! Originally, after the three shots, Wan Yanfeng's internal organs had all been shattered, although there were no injuries on the outside, he was completely dead!
The black shadow was Yue Fei!
Yue Fei came to the top of the city walls, not stopping at all, the iron spear in his hands continued to attack!
In a short moment, a large number of female soldiers had fallen on the city walls!
Expeditionary soldiers continued to climb up from below!
The number of Imperial Guards gradually increased, they had an overwhelming advantage over the Nvzhen!
The Nvzhen was known as the "one in a million cannot be defeated", however, this mainly referred to the power of the Female Genuine Cavalry! They got down from their horses and joined in the defense of the city. Although they were still very strong, but they were definitely not at the level of invincible!
At this moment, the Nvzhen was collapsing and miserable cries could be heard everywhere.
Two hours later, the city walls gradually quietened down! The Imperial Guards had finally taken over the Tongguan!
He still remembered the scene of Zhao Chen following him to this place two years ago. At that time, Zhao Chen was still a child and this place was still Zhe Keqiu's territory. At that time, no one knew what would happen in the future! In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. Zhe Keqiu had died, Zhao Chen truly grasped the authority of the nation, while he, Yue Fei, had become the ruler of the forbidden forces.
Once the Tongguan was recaptured, it would be extremely difficult for the Nvzhen to send more troops into the pass!
"Leave ten thousand people to guard Tongguan, the rest will follow me to Chang An, and capture Chang An in one go!" Yue Fei took a deep breath and shouted suddenly!
The reason why they attacked the Tongguan first, was mainly to cut off the connection between the Guan Shan and the Central Plains, so that the Central Plains Jin Army could not enter the Guan Shan through the Tongguan! Now that they had achieved their goal, the Chang'an City had become a lonely city, and they could slowly take care of it!
The sixteenth day of the first month had arrived. Just on this early morning, the rumbling of battle drums came from beneath the Chang'an City.
Hearing the sound of the drum of battle, the women of Chang'an City and the people of Chidan were shocked. They immediately moved their soldiers to the city wall to prevent the Song Army from attacking!
Only, after the drum had sounded for a long time, the Song Army still did not attack!
Wan Yanhaili, Ye Lvyudu is standing on top of the city wall!
Wan Yanhaili asked: What are the Chinese doing?
Ye Lvyudu sneered and said: "The Chinese are bluffing! "General, do not be afraid!"
Wan Yanhaili nodded and said sarcastically: "The Chinese are so useless! If it was our Nvzhen, we would have already attacked since the beginning with ten times the enemy's number of troops.
Ye Lvyudu's face revealed a flattering smile, and said: "The Nvzhen is unrivalled in the world, naturally, it's not something that the Chinese can compare to!"
Wan Yanhaili laughed out loud, and said: "General Yere's law, I shall leave this to you! I'm going to sleep again! "
Wan Yanhaili then said his goodbyes, there was no need to mention this!
Ye Lvyudu stood on the city wall for a while. Seeing that the Song Army had no intention to attack the city, he yawned, then left the city walls to rest, not to mention!
When it was noon, the drum once again rang! At this time, the Song Army had already prepared a ladder to the clouds. In addition, there were also countless stone throwing machines, siege carts and other weapons installed!
Wan Yanhaili and Ye Lvyudu were once again called over, and seeing the momentum of the Song Army, the two were shocked!
Seeing that the Song Army was getting closer and closer to the city wall, the two of them immediately ordered the female soldiers and the Chidan to get ready!
However, even after waiting for two hours, the Song Army still did not attack!
"What are the Chinese doing?" Wan Yanhaili said somewhat angrily.
"It must be the Emperor of the Han people who urged him on. The General of the Han people had no choice but to attack! However, the Chinese have always been timid as a mouse, so they only put on an act for their emperor to see! " Ye Lvyudu said.
"Damned Chinese!" Forget it, let's ignore them! " Wan Yanhaili said.
Just like that, an afternoon passed! Although the Song Army did not attack, when the Song Army gathered below in a large number of places, the women in the upper echelons did not dare to relax either!
The sky was already getting dark, and at this time, shouts and shouts came from the Song Army, who had finally launched an attack!
However, the scale of the attack this time was extremely limited, after leaving the several hundred corpses behind, Song Army retreated!
When Wan Yanhaili and Ye Lvyudu heard that the Song Army was attacking, they immediately rushed over! But by the time they arrived, the Song Army had already left!
"These Chinese people are really ridiculous!" Wan Yanhaili did not know whether to laugh or cry, and said.
"In the end, the Chinese were still trying to deceive their emperor! They are Chinese and are naturally weak, so there's no need for us to worry! " Ye Lvyudu said.
"That's true! General Yere's law, it's already late, let's go back and drink! " Wan Yanhaili said.
"Alright!" Ye Lvyudu was overjoyed!
The two soldiers on the wall had been harassed for a whole day, both disdainfully and tiredly! The weather was cold, and the number of women and soldiers on the city wall were decreasing. Most of them were hiding in their houses and sleeping!
Time slowly passed, and it was already midnight. Just then, an army appeared from the east side of Chang'an City. This army had infiltrated the Song Army! No one saw what was happening over there!
After another two hours, the Song Army began to move amidst the silence.
This time, a hundred thousand people lifted up their ladders and rushed towards the Chang'an City from all directions!
