Long Live The Emperor! Chapter 18: Offense and defense

When Xia Ji arrived in front of the city gate, the morale of the surrounding area was already extremely low, and someone shouted "Seventh Highness is down", the crowd suddenly roared, and one by one stood up and squeezed over to watch.

I saw a mighty black armored prince walking towards him on the masonry road. Behind the prince was a well-dressed princess, followed by a thousand chilling guards.

The royal family came to the front line, which immediately injected a boost of heartbeat into the defending soldiers, so morale gradually increased.

Xia Ji walked along the twisting bluestone steps to the wall. Eunuch Mei and the chief executive were waiting for him. The chief executive in a wheelchair nodded at him with a sneer and said nothing. Today you and I will die together. What to say on Huangquan Road, and in any case, the emperor's plan is to be realized after all, but it is just taking more of his own life.

When Deng Jue saw the domineering armor and weapons of the seventh prince, he was stunned for a while, but then he came back to his senses, and personally led him and the princess into the only small building on the city wall. There were wines in the building, and then asked: "How about seeing this place, Your Highness?"

"Very good."

"Then His Highness is here... old man, go."

After Deng Jue left, Xia Ji stood in the city wall tower overlooking the battlefield.

The snow is covered with skeletons, and it looks like hell. Nearly one million refugees are still outside the city. They were captured by the ghost army. Every day, they kill some people to provoke them, and these people seem to be at least 1,000 people every time.

Xia Xiaosu was lying on the window of the tower, looking at it and crying, "Hey, hey, hey..."

The crying got louder and louder, and the rouge on his face melted.

Xia Ji said, "What are you talking about?"

Xia Xiaosu: "So many people died, it's so pitiful."

Xia Ji raised his hand and hugged the girl directly into his arms, rubbed her eyes, "Don't cry."

Xia Xiaosu calmed down obediently, but still looked at the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood beneath the city with a sullen face, and she burst into tears.

The ghost army in the distance seemed to have changed a bit. Dozens of giants about five or six meters tall walked out of the snow. These giants had slightly blue skin, and they were surrounded by heavy snow. It was a huge mace that was more than two feet tall, and there were some skeletons hanging around its neck, some of which were human and some of beasts.

"Is this the Frost Giant? They're actually decorated with skeletons?"

"The ancient books say that these are their proud trophies, decorated to show their prestige. Usually only the enemy who has put them in a hard battle, or the most powerful person in the conquered tribal city, is qualified to be them. skeleton accessories." Xia Ji looked at the pale girl and smiled, "For example... me and you."

Xia Xiaosu was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and her tears stopped flowing. She didn't want to die, but her head was cut off, her skin was removed, and she was air-dried to make jewelry.

The arrival of the Frost Giants caused a new round of fierce battles, and these Frost Giants really deserved to be the darlings of Feng Xue.

The voice of Deng Jue's roar suddenly sounded on the city wall: "Release the arrow!!"

Immediately, thousands of bowstrings sounded.

Those frost giants paused, and the arrows fell on the giants with the snow, making a crisp "ding ding ding" sound, but these many shots only stopped the giants.

As soon as the arrows stopped, they started walking again.

Hurt? If it doesn't exist, it can't even break the defense of the ice and snow armor, and it can't even reach the skin of a giant.

"Brother, what are they going to do?"

Xia Jidao: "Of course, directly use a stick to open the city gate. With that defense and brute force, what else do you need to do?"

Xia Xiaosu asked: "Why are there only dozens of giants? Didn't the frontline report say there were three thousand frost giants? Otherwise, the prince and the army of one hundred thousand would not have collapsed in a sneak attack in the middle of the night." /

Xia Ji pondered for a while, then said with his cheeks raised, "Ancient books say that these giants usually don't like to leave their station too far, so... it is possible that many giants have broken through the wolf seal and went back, and came to Here are some adventurous giants."

Xia Xiaosu couldn't help rolling his eyes and complained, "What is the adventurous spirit?"

Xia Ji said solemnly: "Self-breakthrough, pioneering and innovative."

Xia Xiaosu laughed with a puff.

Xia Ji could see through it, and Deng Jue could see through it naturally. The military shotguns immediately aimed at the giants under the city. shot at the giant.

Blizzard's armor shattered.

However, when the strong arrow doesn't wear Lu Zhe at the end, Jin Ya has no strength when it reaches the skin of the giant, so it is still useless.

Seeing the frost giant getting closer and closer, the eyes of the soldiers guarding the city were full of utter despair. They could only keep aiming at the giant and firing crossbow arrows.

And the young men in the city who supported the defense have long lost their original blood.

"How could this kind of monster win..."

"It's not human at all!"

"It's useless for anyone to come, this monster can't be killed at all."

As the Frost Giant approached, there were more and more such voices, and Deng Jue also tried his best. In addition, there are many martial arts people from aristocratic families and rivers and lakes who are assisting the defense of the city, but Looking at the posture of these giants, they also showed panic in their eyes.

Suddenly, a swordsman said: "The monk of Leiyin Temple has great magic power and holds magic tools. Who can invite him, and he will come here to conquer this giant?"

The chief steward in the wheelchair sneered in his heart. Leiyin Temple had already decided that this was the doomed catastrophe for the imperial city. During the catastrophe, the mountain gate had been closed, and many monks said that they wanted to spread the Dharma to the south and follow the emperor. Go, how could Sad Kong come out and get involved in this cause and effect?

Another middle-aged man from an aristocratic family holding an iron sword said: "I heard that Lu Qi, a great scholar in the imperial court~IndoMTL.com~ Xiu Haoran's purple qi, has to be given a magic weapon to slay the demon whip, if he is here , will be able to kill this giant..."

The chief executive listened to his ears and smiled disdainfully. Lu Qi would not "know that it cannot be done and do it". Wise and introspective."

Therefore, when he received the information that the aliens were rushing in, he proposed to the emperor overnight: "If you don't know what you can't do and do it, you are a fool; if you know it can't do it, but you don't do it, you are a wise man; the emperor stands under a dangerous wall. , why not go south to build a new capital, wait until the next year to reorganize the army, the time and place are favorable, and then take revenge." The emperor accepted it, and Lu Qi has now followed the emperor's side, surrounded by the center of the 50,000-strong army, thousands of miles away right?

If you don't run away, is it because the information is lagging behind, or the family has a big business and the city gate can't escape, so you want to fight?

The general manager was calm and sneered in his heart. The world is bustling for profit, and the world is for profit. He looked at the tower in the distance, and could vaguely see two figures in it.

Seventh Highness, our family will only wait for you to die. When you die, the emperor's mission will be completed, and our family's grievances will be dissipated. He turned his head to look at Eunuch Mei, and said : "Xiao Meizi, if His Highness Seventh Highness dies, you can slap our Tianling Gai with one palm and run for your life."

On the other side, Deng Jue had already sent the dead, holding a giant shield and a spear out of the city gate to resist. At the same time, the city head dispatched more war equipment, large crossbows, and flint throwing vehicles. ..

Ghost Fang watched the city gate open, so there were several pioneers, Qianlang Riding, driving the refugees and rushing over. The refugees had nowhere to run. Seeing the city gate opened, they could only run desperately towards the gate.

In the snowstorm, the **** battlefield like a meat grinder kicked off again.
