Chapter 2390 : My witch is back
Zhao Xu told Ji Hongshang, "Ah Chang, guard the palace. I'll go meet them!"
After saying that, without waiting for Ji Hongshang's reply, she had already left the hall.
Under the leadership of Zhao Xu, a group of guards followed Zhao Xu and walked out.
Throughout Echeng, every house has its doors closed.
Everyone knows that this is a disaster for "Echeng".
As the leader of "E City", Zhao Xu led the guards to the high point of the city wall.
Zheng Mingcheng said to Zhao Xu: "Chief, they have come in!"
Zhao Xu said "Yeah!" and ordered Zheng Mingcheng: "Let the archers prepare!"
Zheng Mingcheng waved his hand, and a row of archers behind him, each holding a strong bow and quiver, came to the battlements.
"Woo!..."
A low whistle sounded.
The faces of the people in Echeng changed drastically.
I saw dozens of people wearing "black and white" clothing appearing in the open area ahead.
The masks these people wear on their faces are also black and white, with only two eyes exposed.
In this night, it looked particularly scary.
"It's a ghost warrior!" Zheng Mingcheng said tremblingly.
"Ghost Warrior?"
Zhao Xu frowned when he heard this and asked Zheng Mingcheng beside him: "Are these people well-connected?"
Zheng Mingcheng said "Huh!" and explained to Zhao Xu: "Back then, the nine tribes in the southwestern tribe were unified because of the ghost warriors. That's why our tribe was called the Ghost Fang Barbarian Tribe."
"The nine tribes in the south and the tribe in the north finally returned to the Song capital. Since then, the ghost warriors of our Guifang barbarian tribe were wiped out, and the tribe collapsed, so we took refuge here."
"Songdu?"
"Yes! Song Dynasty/ancestor Zhao Kuangyin."
Zheng Mingcheng recalled: "It was an era when all the heroes came together to rule the roost! But the world will be united if it is divided for a long time, and it will be divided if it is united for a long time!"
"The Later Tang Dynasty first sent troops to destroy the former Shu!"
"Then, the Northern Song Dynasty sent troops to destroy Hou Shu!"
"Wu, Chu, and Min were destroyed by the Southern Tang Dynasty!"
"The Northern Song Dynasty destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty."
"The Northern Song Dynasty then destroyed the Northern Han, Nanping and Southern Han."
"Wu Yue finally accepted the surrender and donated money, and finally unified the Song Dynasty."
"We, the Guifang Barbarians, are just a branch of the clan in Houshu. But at that time, the name of the ghost warriors made the world tremble with fear!"
Zheng Mingcheng continued: "The most famous ones in our area are the ten witches of Lingshan. The earliest witch culture originated from Wu Xian, Wu Ji, Wu Chun, Wu Peng, Wu Gu, Wu Zhen, Wu Li, Wu Da and Wu Xie
,Wuluo.Among them,Wuxian
He is the master of witchcraft. In addition to divination, he is best at marching and fighting. The ancestor of Tianji Palace learned from Wu Xian. During the war, he can use witchcraft to baptize the soldiers, so that the soldiers become courageous.
Not afraid of life and death."
"These ghost warriors have been blessed by the baptism of wizards. Their combat effectiveness will be greatly improved until the last drop of blood is drained from their bodies."
After listening to Zheng Mingcheng's explanation, Zhao Xu frowned.
No wonder the "Ghost Barbarians" have repeatedly staged battles in which a small number defeated a large number. If a soldier is not afraid of life and death and marches forward bravely until the last drop of blood is shed from his body, it is really a terrible thing.
"Is there a way to crack it?" Zhao Xu asked Zheng Mingcheng.
Zheng Mingcheng shook his head and said: "Unless there are higher-level wizards in the opponent's camp, this kind of witchcraft cannot be broken. And in our Echeng city, the person with the highest witchcraft is Wizard Abo. But his
The level is obviously not as good as the other party."
Zhao Xu thought for a moment and asked, "Can Wizard Abo baptize and bless our soldiers?"
Zheng Mingcheng nodded and said: "That's okay! It's just that it can improve the momentum of some of our soldiers, but it can't make the soldiers shed the last drop of blood from their bodies."
Zhao Xu told Zheng Mingcheng: "General Zheng, quickly send someone to call the wizard Abo. Let him baptize and bless the soldiers."
"good!"
After Zheng Mingcheng responded, he immediately sent someone to ask for the wizard "Abo".
Not long after, Wizard Apu arrived. He bowed to Zhao Xu and greeted, "Chief!"
Zhao Xu said "Hmm!" and said to Apu: "Apu wizard, please baptize and bless our soldiers in Echeng!"
"Okay! However, my witchcraft is not that powerful. Baptism and blessing will not increase the warrior's combat effectiveness much."
"A few are better than nothing, just do as I say!"
Apu nodded and said to Zheng Mingcheng: "General Zheng, please call all the soldiers from Echeng over here!"
In addition to the archers on the battlements, all other guards in Echeng were present!
I saw Abo asking someone to bring a basin of water, and he was mumbling some Sanskrit mantras that he was unfamiliar with and incomprehensible to.
Afterwards, Apu used a branch to sprinkle some water on the soldiers in Echeng.
Row after row of soldiers, after being baptized and blessed.
Zhao Xu discovered that these soldiers who had been baptized by Wizard Abo became energetic.
I couldn’t help but be amazed!
In ancient times, there were no modern weapons.
War is made of flesh and blood.
The truest portrayal of a general's success being reduced to a skeleton.
Zhao Xu saw that the other party had been holding back, and the numbers of both sides were almost equal. If the people of "Echeng" were used, they would have an advantage in terms of numbers.
However, the people of "E City" are all unarmed. Letting them go to the battlefield is the same as sending them to death.
As soon as Zhao Xu arrived at "Echeng", he eradicated "General Si", "General Ming" and "General Gong", as well as the original leaders of Echeng.
Now, in the entire E City, he and Zheng Mingcheng are the only two who are considered masters.
The opponent has "Ghost Warrior", and its overall combat effectiveness is definitely better than "Echeng".
hiss!
A horse neighed.
Zhao Xu looked around and saw the crowd of ghost warriors separated, and a man wearing armor and holding a sword appeared on the scene.
This scene, which only appeared on TV, was actually reflected in front of Zhao Xu's eyes.
It seems that this man on horseback is the opponent's general!
The man shouted "Drive!" and lifted the horse, which slowly walked forward.
Behind him, the ghost warriors followed in uniform steps.
Although there were only a few dozen people, they showed the momentum of thousands of troops.
When we arrived about fifty meters away from the city wall, we were actually within the range of the archers.
In the ancient era of cold weapons, bows and arrows were powerful weapons with a maximum range of 150 to 200 meters.
The man riding the tall horse left the ghost warrior behind and rode the tall horse alone to a place only about thirty meters away from the city wall.
Chapter completed!
