Chapter 278 Capturing the Thief and Capturing the King
Chapter 278 Capturing the Thief and Capturing the King
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" ~
The sharp arrows of the Black Dragon Guards smashed the battering rams, catapults, and the Northern Kingdom's shooting teams.
On the contrary, the Northern Kingdom's hurled stones and marbles did not hit the Black Dragon Guards, but were deflected by the Black Dragon Guards' invisible force. Those marbles and stones bounced back and hit the Northern Kingdom's army themselves.
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"
"Guard! Protect quickly!"
"Shoot! Kill the damn Black Dragon Guards!"
For a moment, the Northern Army, which had just been mocking the Black Dragon Guards, was thrown into chaos. They had no idea that the Black Dragon Guards could break and destroy their heavy weapons with just arrows.
It turns out that bows and arrows are not just able to pierce an object, they can also make it explode?
What kind of incredible and outrageous operation was this?! The Northern Army was panicked and anxious, but with a full 500,000 troops, they were definitely not willing to retreat.
Even if we use human wave tactics, we can only kill a mere one hundred Black Dragon Guards!
How could Xuan Qing not see the other party's intention? He curled his lips into a smile and took out the giant bow and arrow on his back. "To capture the thief, we must first capture the leader. Jin Xing will help me."
Jin Xing is the best and most skilled general in the Black Dragon Guard. Xuan Qing rushed to the front line, which was more dangerous than any other time or place.
So Jiang Changle sent Jin Xing to personally guard Xuan Qing. Jin Xing had no objection. He was a warmonger and especially liked to charge to the front of the battlefield.
At this time, Jin Xing also instantly understood Xuan Qing's intention. Their team had only a hundred people, and they were definitely no match for the 500,000-strong Northern Kingdom Army.
After all, the Northern Army was not like the Western Army, which was exhausted by the snowstorm and had no strength left. Moreover, the Western Army was also driven away by the Fourth Princess.
Jiang Changle is much stronger than these subordinates and beastly husbands, and there is no comparison at all.
So now they can only use their wits, which is still possible. Jin Xing also had an evil smile on his face.
"Come on, Xuan Langjun, see, the number nine tent in the middle is where the Northern Kingdom's commander is.
That old fellow has bullied the princess more than once or twice before, you must avenge our princess."
Jin Xing pushed Xuan Qing from behind and transferred his spiritual power to him. Seeing this, the other Black Dragon Guards spontaneously surrounded the two of them.
The formation quickly formed by the Black Dragon Guards soon attracted the attention of many parties.
"Oh my God! What do they want to do?" The East Country Army looked forward to it with great interest.
"Who is that guy holding the big bow?" He looks so brave!
"He wouldn't want to shoot the Northern Army's commander, would he?" This was a bit unrealistic. He wanted to shoot the other side's commander across 500,000 people. Was this guy not smart enough?
"You definitely won't hit it, the distance is so far." Isn't this just a waste of energy?
The East Kingdom soldiers hid behind the city walls, feeling anxious. They had originally thought that they would be saved once the Black Dragon Guards arrived, but who knew that the Black Dragon Guards only numbered a mere 100 men?!
This was not enough to fill the gap in the Northern Army's teeth, although these one hundred people were very brave. As soon as they arrived, they disrupted the Northern Army's siege formation and destroyed a lot of weapons.
However, the Northern Army had many catapults and siege pillars. As soon as the ones in the front were destroyed, the army behind immediately pushed up another batch of new heavy weapons.
The Northern Army seemed to be irritated. Not only did they not stop attacking the city, but they also sent more troops to deal with the Black Dragon Guards.
And the counterpart of the Black Dragon Guard is actually the coach of the Shooting North Kingdom?!
"Teacher, are the Black Dragon Guards stupid or just overconfident? No normal person could do this, right?"
County Lady Sanliu wanted to die at this moment. Oh no, actually she was hit by a marble in the shoulder and she would die in the end.
Could it be that Heaven was sending a hundred Black Dragon Guards to be buried with her? For a moment, the Sanliu County Lady didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The teacher had a different opinion. He looked at Xuan Qing's figure with an unusually fiery look, "The man with black clothes and black hair, that is the Xuanshoufu of the Jiang family.
Xuanqing is the most intelligent person in Xuanmen. It is rumored that he has obtained the "Complete Book" and possesses the strongest ability to govern the country.
Do you think a person like this can't estimate that distance?
In my opinion, he will definitely be able to hit the main tent.
Another thing is that most people think that the commander-in-chief must live in tent No. 1, but if you look at the direction of the dark green arrow, that is the location of tent No. 8 or No. 9.
This shows that nothing the enemy can hide from Xuanqing's eyes! Xiaoliu, prepare to welcome Xuanlangjun into the city."
Xuanqing can be said to be a colleague of the teacher, which makes him very excited.
Lady Sanliu stretched her head out and tried to look, but she could not see any sign that Xuanqing could win against this arrow.
However, the Northern Army was on full alert, with layers of soldiers guarding seven to a dozen military tents.
There were more troops in the front attacking the Black Dragon Guards, and a large number of troops continued to attack the city, intending to prevent the East Kingdom Army from leaving the city to rescue the Black Dragon Guards.
The Black Dragon Guards' methodical attacks and defenses did not weaken their destructive power, but instead increased it.
Xuan Qing had been accumulating power for this arrow for a long time, and after adding half of He Jinxing's power, he finally felt that it was enough.
"Go, kill!" The string and bow were pulled into a circle, and when the time was right, he let go.
The giant arrow flew high up and shot out as fast as a rocket. The Northern Army shot countless marbles but failed to hit the arrow at all.
Seeing that the sharp arrow was about to hit the No. 9 military tent, the flying orcs rushed out in a hurry. Even though they knew they would die, they rushed forward without hesitation and grabbed the sharp arrow.
But no one succeeded. All were shot through by sharp arrows or carried away.
Finally, the sharp arrow exploded in the sky above Tent No. 9, almost hitting the target.
"Wow! It was so close!"
The Eastern Army was filled with regret, but the Northern Army was relieved.
The commander of an army of 500,000 was almost injured. How could the Northern Army tolerate this?
Just when they were about to attack the Black Dragon Guards with all their might, Xuan Qing's second arrow had already left the string.
The Northern Army's eyes widened as they ran back in terror, shouting, "Protect the General!"
That man is so weird. Not only can he shoot a sharp arrow with a long range, he can also shoot a second one!
This time, more flying orcs went up to block the arrows, but in the end the second arrow still exploded in the No. 9 military tent.
No one knew whether the commander was dead or not, but the Northern Army panicked and quickly retreated ten miles.
"Oh! We win!"
"Ah! The Northern Army has finally retreated!"
Whether it was the Zhou family army or the city defense army, all the Eastern Kingdom soldiers cheered on the city wall.
This is the first time the Northern Army has withdrawn since its invasion!
It turned out to be the Black Dragon Guards. Only a hundred of them were able to force the 500,000-strong Northern Army to withdraw. How powerful!
"Quick! Quick! Open the city gates and welcome the Black Dragon Guards into the city."
The Lady of Sanliu County was so happy that she shouted excitedly, and finally she vomited blood, which showed that she was seriously injured.
"Sir!" the soldiers cried out in grief.
The Black Dragon Guards had clearly arrived, bringing hope, but who knew that the county lady would be shot.
