Witch Wind

Chapter 182: Joining forces to attack the city (Part )

Due north of China.

The majestic Qinling Mountains stretch for 100,000 miles from west to east.

Two great rivers, Mangcang and Fuchen, surged in from the extreme north, tearing apart the steep mountains of Qinling Mountains, like two white dragons raging and rolling for thousands of miles. At the southern foot of Qinling Mountains, they suddenly became gentle and quiet, just like a mad woman turning into a lady from a noble family, and very gently washed out a vast plain stretching for nearly ten thousand miles at the south of Qinling Mountains - the 'Liangjiang Plain'.

In the northern part of the plain, a majestic city stands tall, guarded by several Qinling mountain ranges that rise and fall like hidden dragons, and surrounded by more than a dozen tributaries of the Mangcang River and the Fuchen River.

This city, after thousands of years of baptism, was once called Liangzhu, once Anyi, once called Haojing, once called Xianyang... Later, some people changed its name to Chang'an, changed it to Bianjing, changed it to Yanjing...

Six hundred years ago, the Jade Clan's ancestor, Jade Lynx Longxing, led a mighty mixed army of humans and demons to sweep across the world, and incidentally, he tricked the Manchu high-ranking officials in the ancestral land into a mess. After that, this city became the capital of the newly established Great Jade Dynasty, and the name was naturally changed to 'Fentian'!
No matter how the people in other parts of Dayu Dynasty live.

The eastern concessions were full of feasting and revelry, the people in the south of the Yangtze River were addicted to "Elysium", the major provinces in the northwest had suffered from severe drought for several years in a row, the people had eaten up all the tree bark and grass roots, or even exchanged their own children for food, and even some vassal states in the southwest frequently invaded and looted men and women.

Fentian City always has good weather, peace and prosperity.

Early in the morning, the four city gates of Fentian City slowly opened with a low roar, and the gates weighing tens of thousands of pounds were lifted up little by little by the strong men amid the clanging sounds of iron chains.

So, in the "People's Gate", the common people, such as vegetable sellers, firewood sellers, and people doing all kinds of small business, came in a mighty procession. In the "Noble Gate", which was several times wider and taller than the "People's Gate", the rich and powerful, dressed in fine clothes and riding horses, accompanied by large groups of guards and servants, and pretty women, left the city in a flash, accompanied by billowing dust and strong fragrance.

Early in the morning, high platforms were set up inside and outside the "civil gates" everywhere. The priests of the Holy Father Church and the Holy Mother Church, wearing colorful robes, shook the law bells or rang the law bells, and shouted various prayers at the top of their lungs.

"Believe in the Most High Holy Father, and he will bless you. May your livestock prosper and your offspring be numerous!"

"Believe in the merciful Virgin Mary, and she will bless you. May your academic achievements be improved and your career be successful!"

"Don't believe the charlatans on the other side. They are deceiving you. The Virgin Mary never existed!"

"Don't believe the charlatans on the other side. They are definitely deceiving you. Holy Father, that is an evil god!"

With loud shouts, the Paladins of Judgment or the Knights of Judgement on both sides, relying on the alcohol they had drunk last night but had not yet completely digested, rolled up their sleeves and rushed towards the other side's podium.

After all, the territory of Fentian City had to give some respect to Dayu Dynasty, so dozens of strong and sturdy men with a height of six feet from both sides waved their big fists and smashed things around.

The kind-hearted people did not dare to join in the fun. When they saw these red-haired, green-eyed foreigners rebelling in their den, a large group of decent people hurriedly fled in all directions, as if they had encountered a group of mad dogs.

But in a place like Fentian City, there is no shortage of all kinds of city foxes and street heroes. When they saw the charlatans starting to fight, a large number of martial arts heroes gathered around them from nowhere, clapping, stomping their feet, and shouting to cheer them on.

"Hey, hyena's anus digging, this is a great trick!"

"Tsk tsk, monkeys picking peaches, this is not bad!"

"Oh my, this headbutt has 30% of the iron head skills of the master of Sihai Martial Arts School."

"This kick that can kill off all offspring is really well executed... Hey, why did this golden-haired girl start a fight? Tear off her clothes, brothers, tear off her robe quickly, brothers have never seen what a foreign woman looks like."

Then, all the heroes in the surrounding area burst into laughter, and even some country guys who ran far away joined in laughing.

Along with the sound of clothes and fabrics being torn, the gates of Fentian City were filled with an extremely joyful atmosphere early in the morning - even the gate officers who were usually ferocious to the people, brought a large group of soldiers, lay on the battlements of the city wall and looked down, grinning from ear to ear, and could be said to be having fun with the people.

In the distance, a very high and sharp cloud of dust rose up in the wind like a flag.

If there were veteran soldiers present, they would certainly shout - this is an elite cavalry galloping at high speed, approaching Fentian City at an incredible speed.

However, early in the morning, the officers and soldiers of the city defense army who had been on duty on the city wall all night were watching the lively fight between the foreign devils with laughter. Who would pay attention to what was happening outside the city?

The Dayu Dynasty enjoyed peace for many years.

Except for the new parties that clamored for new policies in the early years, which had caused turmoil in the Beijing camp several times, how many years had Fentian City not seen war? Not to mention that ten or eleven years ago, those restless new parties had long been caught by the wise and powerful Empress Dowager and all sent to Caishikou to be beheaded!
Gradually, the smoke and dust came closer and closer.

More than a thousand armored big-horned bulls, three meters long and about ten meters tall, with thick plate armor all over their bodies and a dark blue color, and a wild and ferocious aura, roared in a low voice and approached the west gate of Fentian City at a terrifying speed that was nearly ten times faster than ordinary war horses.

Outside the west gate, there are many markets on both sides of the spacious official road.

Early in the morning, all kinds of carriages, horses, donkeys and mules were led out by all kinds of people. The caravans entering the capital, the horse caravans leaving the capital, or people doing various odd jobs were all busy.

There were also various breakfast shops steaming with activity, various mobile breakfast stalls running all over the place, various vendors shouting their wares loudly, people coming and going, making the official road almost jam-packed.

The galloping cattle team quickly slowed down.

The leader, Xing Tian Ya Zi, held high the Xing Tian Wu Gan Qi flag, rode a big horned bull, and slowly drove into the crowded market. The bull panted heavily, and the hot air from its nostrils blew the clothes of pedestrians within a few feet.

Many young girls and wives had their lapels lifted by the big bull's breath, exposing their white flesh. They thought some playboy was teasing them, and raised their heads in haste to yell and curse.

Then, they all stood there in a daze.

On the back of a giant bull that was over ten feet tall, Xing Tian Ya Zi stood over eight feet tall. He was bare-chested and carrying a large axe. On one side of the saddle beside his thigh hung a heavy bronze shield with a square animal face pattern, which was almost the same size as an ordinary person's door panel.

Such a cow, such a man, would scare people into silence if they saw one of them.

Behind Xing Tian Ya Zi, there are as many as 1,500 such men, such big men.

They rode their cows silently, following the official road, and advanced towards the west gate of Fentian City little by little. As a result, pedestrians gave way wherever they passed, and everyone was silent, staring with wide eyes, looking at this terrifying existence with a strong breath that was suffocating, like a god or demon descending to the world.

It's not just because of the size and shape.

Be it these cows or these Xingtian clan strong men, their life levels completely crush the ordinary people in the market. It's like a tiger raging in the mountains suddenly crashing into a nest of rabbits. Who dares to make a sound? Who dares to make a noise?

In this way, a large group of Xingtian knights moved forward slowly, and the originally bustling market gradually became silent.

As they were about to reach the west gate of Fentian City, they heard the ear-piercing sound of whips. A dozen caravan men who were adjusting the saddles on the mules and horses were whipped and had bloody heads. They rolled on the ground crying.

A dozen young eunuchs wearing green robes and riding tall horses came laughing and galloping over: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! If you don't want to cause trouble, get out of the way! Get out of the way! If you get killed, don't blame us!"

The young eunuchs smiled brightly; they had long been accustomed to the feeling of superiority brought by galloping on horseback in the busy city.

They rode as hard as they could, galloping along the official road. They were quite skilled in martial arts, and they would whip anyone who blocked their way, regardless of whether they were men, women, or young. Especially the eunuch in his early twenties who was leading the way, with a whip made of small steel wire in his hand, even a big mule would fall to the ground with a scream, its fur torn, and blood splattered.

'Snapped'!
The horses were running wildly through the market, and a group of unscrupulous eunuchs suddenly noticed someone blocking their way. Without even seeing who was in front of them, they all swung their whips together. The two-foot-long steel whips made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and went straight to Xing Tian Ya Zi.

All around, countless silent pedestrians gasped in unison, and then started to shout in unison.

‘Bah bang bang’!
Xing Tian did not dodge or evade, and let the whips hit his head and face fiercely. Then he heard a sharp explosion sound, and more than a dozen steel whips were blown to pieces on his face. The terrible recoil force was transmitted back along the steel whips. The eunuchs only felt black in front of their eyes, and there was a "bang" sound, and their arms exploded. Blood mist splattered, and pieces of flesh flew everywhere.

The recoil force from Xing Tian's whip was so strong that the broken flesh from the eunuchs' arms flew in all directions with a whooshing sound, hitting the pedestrians who were unable to dodge and making them scream in pain. Many of them were beaten to pieces and fell to the ground crying and wailing.

Xing Tian frowned and shook his head vigorously: "It's not my fault, these guys asked for it. Hey, you bastards, there are only a dozen pretty boys doing whatever they want, there must be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people in your market, right? Why don't you get up and kill them?"

Xing Tian Ya Zi and a group of brothers shook their heads at the same time.

They couldn't understand why there were so many people in this market, especially those men who made a living and showed their faces in this market. Many of them were bodyguards of caravans and cargo teams. They were all dressed as warriors and carried all kinds of swords and guns. Why would they allow these dozen pretty boys to do whatever they wanted?
In the eyes of Xing Tian Ya Zi and his brothers, if anyone dares to be presumptuous in front of them, they will swing their axes and chop him to death!
This is the way the Xingtian clan of Great Xia acts, and this is the cognition of the elite descendants of the Xingtian clan of Great Xia!

More than a dozen young eunuchs cried and wailed, fell off their horses, rolled on the ground, and twitched, holding their wounds that were bleeding like geysers. Several of them could not bear the pain and fainted from it.

With the sound of horse hooves, a team of magnificent carriages and horses came quickly.

Dozens of guards wearing light leather armor, holding leopard tail spears with silver shafts and gold heads, walked at the front of the team. Suddenly seeing the young eunuchs wailing and crying on the ground, a middle-aged man suddenly shouted loudly, and everyone stopped their mounts and looked over with bloodshot eyes.

"Who are you, the bandit who dares to..."

The middle-aged man roared, and then the cursing stopped abruptly.

The eyes of him and his subordinates behind him almost popped out of their sockets - what kind of people were they? Such big cows, such big men, with wheel-shaped axes as big as their backs, and large bronze shields hanging by their legs that could be used as doors in ordinary people's homes.

These guys, relying on the wealth of their masters, are used to being arrogant in Fentian City.

Seeing those crying and seriously injured young eunuchs, and then seeing how burly Xing Tian, ​​Ya Zi and others were, as scary as gods and demons, several guards simultaneously dropped the leopard-tail guns in their hands that were used as ceremonial weapons, pulled out ten-shot short carbines imported from hundreds of countries in the far west from the gun bags beside the saddle, and pulled the triggers at Xing Tian and Ya Zi.

There were continuous "bang bang" sounds as dozens of bullets hit Xing Tian's Jiaozi, who was completely unprepared and too lazy to defend himself.

The specially made armor-piercing steel-core bullets hit Xing Tian's face and chest - how could he miss a man as big as this one, at a distance of only 25 feet?

Sparks flew, and dense bullets twisted, shattered, and exploded from Xing Tian's ugly face.

Xing Tian's eyes widened, and he nodded slowly: "Oh, that's interesting. Is this what the little county magistrates called the firearms from the barbarian slaves of the hundred countries in the far west? Tsk, if the children in the tribe are accidentally hit, they will really get hurt?"

Behind him, several brothers crowded up and waved excitedly at the stunned guards: "Hurry up and shoot at us. Hey, along the way, the county soldiers under the command of the county magistrates all have old-fashioned matchlocks and flintlocks in their hands. Let us see their so-called advanced weapons!"

The guards' minds went blank. They were stimulated by the aura of the Xingtian brothers. They subconsciously drew their carbines and started shooting at them.

Even the middle-aged man in the lead, not caring about the lives of the civilians in the market, took out two grenades, pulled the strings, and threw them at Xing Tian Ya Zi. God knows why, as guards, they have to carry grenades with them?
Dense bullets kept bouncing off the bodies of the Xingtian brothers.

Xing Tian Ya Zi waved his hand and stabbed the thick flagpole into the ground beside him. He stretched out his palm as big as a palm leaf fan and caught two grenades in each hand. He clenched his palm tightly, and with two muffled "bangs", the grenades exploded in his palms, and a large cloud of smoke fluttered, but it did not cause any damage to his palms.

"Hey, this is quite interesting." Xing Tian laughed wildly, "The Qi-refining bastard from Ying Qin next door, who just learned the Palm Thunder, is probably not as powerful as this thing!"

Xing Tian's eyes swirled around, and he suddenly jumped off the ox's back and rushed towards the guards: "Come on, keep bombing, it's okay, I can still bear it, hurry up and bomb, keep bombing, or I'll crush your heads!"

The guards' heads went blank. They screamed and fired at Xing Tian Ya Zi. They pulled out grenades and blew them up at him. In the market, countless people ran away. Many people stood far away and watched Xing Tian Ya Zi being beaten until sparks flashed all over his body, but not even a hair... He shaved his head. Where did his hair come from?
"Boy, you're done!" Xing Tian laughed wildly, "I'm here to collect the annual tribute for Jiazi. Ha, my original intention was to go directly to your current big boss, the old woman called Queen Mother, to collect the money... Hey, you are so bold that not only don't give me money, but also attack me violently!"

"Oh my, look, I'm seriously injured, seriously injured. Internal injuries, definitely internal injuries, I'm about to vomit blood. Pay more money, pay more money quickly, or I'll take that old lady back and make her wash our brothers' pants!"

Xing Tian Ya Zi and a group of brothers laughed wildly.

A group of guards finally came to their senses. They jumped off their mounts crying and rushed to the convoy behind them, opened the doors, pulled out a group of princes in gorgeous clothes, dragged them and ran away.

Xing Tian Ya Zi and a group of his brothers were not in a hurry. They continued to ride the big bull and slowly approached Fentian City.

When they were less than a mile away from the city gate, the fleeing playboys and guards had already rushed into the city gate. Dull alarm bells rang from several city gates on the west side of Fentian City, and the city gates that had just been opened slowly closed again.

On the city wall, cannons were pushed out by the flustered officers and soldiers of the city defense army. Large groups of ragged soldiers, holding various firearms, rushed out of the garrison forts in a panic and rushed up the city wall along a special military road.

Xing Tian Ya Zi whispered to his brothers behind him: "Okay, let's put the cows behind us later, don't let them get scared and run around everywhere, trampling on the people and causing trouble... I don't want to go back and be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall because I accidentally injured some people."

"Brothers, let's just pretend and attack the city. Let them bomb it for a while longer. Hey, we've suffered a loss, we've been shot at and bombed, we've suffered. Our annual tribute should be at least ten times that of the last round, right?"

A bunch of hot guys laughed together.

Several of the most burly men murmured in a coquettish voice: "Brother, remember to ask them to send more pretty young ladies. Ahem, there are too few women in the clan, and we brothers are still single."

Xing Tian waved his hand and laughed, "Don't worry, the elders said that we should bring back at least 100,000 young ladies. I'm in charge, let them increase it tenfold. Well, don't all the young ladies have dowries? Each young lady's dowry should be at least 100,000 catties of fine aged wine, right? Ten billion catties of aged wine, dear!"

A group of Xingtian brothers swallowed their saliva together, their eyes turned red.

The next moment, these guys jumped off the oxen, pulled out their big axes, carried their big shields, and howled slogans such as "rob money", "rob food", and "rob the girl". They rushed towards Fentian City in a disorderly manner, like a group of standard bandits, and rushed to the west gate of Fentian City.

A ray of golden light flashed in the low sky.

Xing Tianli arrived silently above Fentian City. The roars of Xing Tian Yazi and others were louder than thunder. He also felt several extremely strong pure witch blood auras rolling, which were already above those of earthly immortals.

He turned around abruptly and looked at the Xingtian Jiaozi who were pretending to swing axes and hacking at the west gate of Fentian City amid the heavy gunfire.

He also saw that about two hundred miles behind Xing Tian, ​​Ya Zi and the others, there was a black cloud in the sky that was almost solid. In the cloud, there were two old men who were over ten feet tall, bare-chested, and carrying big axes. They were drinking big gulps of wine with a roasted black tiger.

Xing Tianli looked up at the sky.

In broad daylight, in the clear sky, you two old guys have created such a dark cloud hanging high in the sky that looks like a ghost. Are you afraid that people don't know you are hiding in there?

His eyes swept over the two old men.

The two old men's bodies shuddered suddenly. They raised their heads at the same time. Four eyeballs, which were three times larger than cow's eyes, suddenly emitted a blazing bloody light. The terrible aura of slaughter on the battlefield rose into the sky. The invisible murderous intent tore through the white clouds along the way and rushed straight towards Xing Tianli with great arrogance.

A hint of murderous aura emanated from Xing Tianli's body.

The murderous auras of both sides suddenly intertwined, and with a 'hum' sound, deep in Xing Tianli's blood, at the most core source of his father's blood inheritance, a strange aura unique to the Xing Tian family was triggered, and the monstrous aura of blood and fierce battle seeped out from his five elements witch blood, intertwining with the two horrible murderous auras.

"Our own kid?" The two old guys who were holding big axes and were about to kill Xing Tianli stopped at the same time, grinned and nodded at Xing Tianli.

Xing Tianli also nodded at them, pointed with his right hand, and the acquired five elements' power collided with each other. With a loud 'swish', three thunder and fire as long as a hundred feet and as thick as water tanks fell from the sky and hit the three largest city gates in the west of Fentian City.

A mushroom cloud rose slowly into the sky, and the three city gates, large and small urn cities, as well as the city walls on both sides that were several miles long collapsed together.
