Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 1205 - 1202_1

The general guarding the city, observing that Shangguan Xuanyi and his two companions were about to reach the city wall, cried out in desperate exasperation, "Arrows! Release the arrows swiftly, and shoot these three dead!"

Seeing this, Di Shaowei shouted, "Protect General Shangguan and his companions!"

The archers began to release their arrows at the soldiers upon the city wall once more!

Di Shaowei stared tensely at the trio, on guard against any unforeseen incidents.

Another rain of arrows commenced!

Both of Shangguan Xuanyi’s hands were holding onto people, leaving no hand free for defense. Xiao’er and Shangguan Xuanjun drew their swords and frantically deflected incoming arrows.

In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Xuanyi led them in flight onto the city wall.

Upon landing, Shangguan Xuanyi quickly kicked away a soldier who had attempted to cut him down!

Xiao’er and Shangguan Xuanjun joined the fight before Shangguan Xuanyi’s feet even touched the ground.

Wielding her whip, Xiao’er infused it with all her inner strength. With a single crack of her whip, she knocked away ten soldiers who were gathered in an attempt to prevent their landing.

With a single swing of his sword, Shangguan Xuanjun likewise killed several soldiers.

The three successfully landed on the enemy’s city wall and quickly joined the battle.

"Kill them, everyone! Throw these three off the wall immediately!" The general defending the city charged towards Shangguan Xuanyi with his spear while issuing commands.

However, many soldiers were already on their way to attack the trio without needing his reminder!

Cheers erupted among the soldiers of Minze Country beneath the city wall!

Heavens!

Their general was formidable! A single man had ascended the hundred-feet-high city wall while carrying two others!

This was more remarkable than a flying bird!

A bird could fly, but it could not carry a person while flying! Let alone one person carrying two others!

This was simply unbelievable!

The soldiers and civilians within the city wall fell into despair upon seeing the enemy forces landing on the city wall in such a swift manner!

No one could have anticipated such a situation would occur!

"Heavens! How did the enemy general ascend the city wall so quickly? Can he fly?"

Indeed, he must be able to fly!

"Heavens! What shall we do? The enemy forces have broken through the city wall. Will they massacre everyone?"

"Quickly guard the city gate! We cannot let the enemy break through! We must wait for the reinforcement from the Imperial Court!"

...

Unblinking, the soldiers beneath the city wall on both sides observed the battle situation above. Some were joyful, while others were filled with sorrow!

They could only see Xiao’er wielding her whip to ensnare one or two soldiers before casting them off the city wall!

Shangguan Xuanyi was even more ruthless. Grasping a golden whip that seemed alive, it shone with dazzling golden light. With a single flick, he ensnared several soldiers and flung them screaming off the city wall.

Falling from the hundred-feet-high city wall, they would either die or shatter into pieces!

The martial arts skills of Shangguan Xuanjun were also formidable, his sword swiftly and decisively taking one life after another.

However, after witnessing Shangguan Xuanyi’s strategy, Shangguan Xuanjun decided that he must practice the whip after this battle. It seemed the whip was mightier than the sword, especially during a siege!

The three were simply fighting off tens of soldiers. They swiftly slaughtered half of the soldiers on the city wall.

The hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the city had turned cold.

The soldiers of Minze Country outside the city wall were however ecstatic! They were so excited that they wished the city gate would open immediately, allowing them to join the battle and quickly conquer this city!

"Open the city gates! Siege ladder bearers, onto the city!" Di Shaowei, who had been keeping a keen eye on the battle conditions in the city, exclaimed at this sight.

Now, Shangguan Xuanyi and their trio had essentially cleared a section of the city wall, enabling the soldiers to climb the city using siege ladders.

The long siege ladders, one after another, were propped against the city wall, as soldiers, lined up, climbed up at their fastest speed!

Everyone was extremely exhilarated at this moment! The morale was at an unprecedented high!

Their general could actually fly, how could they not be excited!

The fight started less than an hour ago, and they were already able to climb the city using the siege ladders, how could they not be excited!

They reckon this battle can become a legend!

In any battle, a general with great abilities would always boost the soldiers’ morale!

Shangguan Xuanyi and the other two were killing the enemies on the city walls, while at the same time preventing the enemies from throwing stones down.

Below, Minze Country’s soldiers were climbing up the siege ladders, and another group was attempting to ram open the city gates!

Each of the three men was in charge of a spot, like one-man passageways, unable to be approached by tens of thousands of men!

The soldiers on the siege ladders quickly climbed up and joined the fight!

The soldiers under the city were calling on the civilians to collectively resist the enemy’s attempt to ram open the city gates.

Some civilians were not willing to help, and if they were unwilling, the soldiers would hit them!

Some soldiers from Nangong Country quickly ran to the city wall, trying to knock down the enemies on the wall.

However, as more and more enemies climbed up, the pace of Nangong’s soldiers climbing the wall was even surpassed by those from Minze Country!

Just when the city gates were on the verge of being breached, the enemy’s reinforcements arrived, an army of a hundred thousand!

Shangguan Xuanyi, looking at the approaching yellow sand in the distance, and the soldiers rushing over in their droves, squinted his eyes slightly, "Quickly break the city gates!"

Di Shaowei also heard the sound of footsteps, he quickly gave an order, "Brothers, the enemy’s reinforcements are coming, hurry up and breach the city gates! Put in an extra log for the siege!"

The soldiers of Nangong Country on the city wall, seeing that the reinforcements had finally arrived, with so many people, cheered happily, "Reinforcements are here, everyone hold on! We must not let the enemy break through the city gates!"

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at the approaching army of a hundred thousand.

With a decisive mind, he jumped down the city wall and right before he hit the ground, he summoned all his strength to whip out a lash. The killing intent from the whip made a few people back off and he successfully landed.

As soon as he landed, soldiers turned around and thrust their spears at him.

Hundreds of spears formed a circle around him, thrusting towards Shangguan Xuanyi. It was a fierce 360° attack with no gaps.

The soldiers from Minze Country on the city wall gasped when they saw this sight!

"Be careful, General!" someone couldn’t help but shout.

Just as the spears were about to touch his robe, Shangguan Xuanyi quickly took off from the ground, his body soaring into the air.

At the same time, the city gate was breached. The two massive logs crashed through, knocking over many soldiers who couldn’t dodge in time!

Soldiers from Minze Country rushed into the city!

The armies of both sides quickly clashing into a brutal melee.

Meanwhile, the hundred thousand reinforcements of Nangong Country also arrived!

The general leading Nangong’s reinforcements roared, "Kill!"

"The city gates have been breached! Charge!" The soldiers of Minze Country also shouted loudly.

Shangguan Xuanyi quickly descended, stepping on the shoulder of a soldier from Nangong country, called to the soldiers still holding the logs, "Give me the hefty wood!"

Shangguan Xuanyi landed in a gap in Minze’s ranks, and grabbed the hefty log still in the soldiers’ hands.

Then, he quickly leaped into the air again, carrying the massive log of several hundred pounds. Using his light martial arts, he stepped on the soldiers’ shoulders, made his way to the front of Nangong’s hundred thousand army, held the hefty log horizontally with both hands, expended all of his strength on the hefty log, and threw it at the enemy’s army.
