Chapter 653 Cloud Ring Lake
First, a loud noise came, as if countless thunders exploded at the same time, which made everyone's ears buzz. Even those who were weak were vomiting blood on the spot because of the tumultuous blood. Then layers of ripples rippled on the light shield of the city protection array, and they became higher and higher, just like the layers of water waves that were stirred up by a huge rock into the calm lake. Not only did they gradually weaken and calm down, but they gradually became huge waves.!
As a result, the light shield began to twist, as if it was rubbed hard by an invisible big hand. Although it became wrinkled, it did not break until it broke.
However, under such a strong and powerful shock of the city-protecting array, the impact of the city-protecting array can be imagined. The light shield can withstand it, but the earth connected to it will suffer.
"Boom..."
Just as the light waves were surging on the light mask, the land in the fifty-mile radius centered on Baishi City suddenly rose and fell violently, as if it had suffered a severe earthquake. The mud and sand on the arid ground around Baishi City began to surge, like countless layers of yellow waves surging.
At this moment, standing at the highest point of Qingfeng Ridge and looking down from above, Baishi City was like a white box floating in the rolling yellow waves, shaking up and down with the ups and downs of the earth waves.
"Wow! That's amazing!"
"I really didn't expect that the magic weapon that the little prince gave us was so sharp."
"Nonsense, who is the little prince? What I gave us is bad. It's a pity that I can only use it once, and the magic weapon has been broken."
"It's a pity, but it doesn't matter. As long as we follow the little prince, we will definitely get better and more powerful magic weapons in the future."
...
The soldiers and generals on the Qingfeng Path couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this scene.
They just obeyed the orders and then stimulated the scorpion eyes with all their strength, but no one expected that the thousands of stalking lights would gather so powerfully. It was like destroying the entire Baishi City with one blow.
This made their instant admiration for Xia Fan reach its peak. Even the soldiers and generals who had just been recruited returned to their hearts in an instant.
In fact, although these fixed glares are powerful, they are not enough to destroy Baishi City. After all, fixed glares themselves are not used for attack. If it were not for the guidance and condensation of the three talent formations formed by Xia Fan with his own three fixed scorpion eyes, the fixed glares are far from as powerful as they are now.
"Bang, boom."
Under the violent impact of the shining light, the city-sharing array that had no power at all finally reached its limit. A crack appeared in the already wrinkled light shield, and then it shattered in a loud bang.
"Ah! No good..." The next moment, the shining light fell into Baishi City and flew around. Although it looked extremely scattered, it looked quite beautiful from a distance. Then Baishi City, which was already shouting loudly, suddenly became silent.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Roar into the city and kill the enemy."
...
There was no movement in Baishi City, but the soldiers who had already accumulated enough strength to attack would not hesitate. As Bu Fenghou rushed towards the city with his troops, the 30,000 carefully selected elite soldiers and generals rushed towards Baishi City.
As long as there is no blockade of the city protection formation and no counterattack in the city, the city is more than a hundred feet high is not a problem at all. Therefore, these 30,000 people almost fought to the city, and then they saw a strange scene that was hard to see.
I saw that above the city, there were the defenders of Baishi City standing at this time. Everyone was holding weapons in their hands. It seemed that they had already been ready to defend the city, but now they were all motionless like clay sculptures and wood sculptures. If they hadn't been breathing and their eyes could turn occasionally, it would really make people feel that they were dead.
The reason why these people became like this was naturally because they were immersed in a desolate and shining light. Xia Fan had spent so much effort before, refining magic weapons and using the three-talent formation to guide the desolate and shining light, in order to achieve such a winning or losing game. Now it seems that all his efforts have not been in vain.
The effect of fixed glare does not last long. After all, most fixed glares are emitted by fixed scorpion eyes that are only third-grade spiritual weapons, so they can only hold the defenders for four or five breaths.
This time is not long, but it is enough for Bu Fenghou to lead his troops to the top of the city. Then even if these defenders resume their operations, facing 30,000 elite soldiers, most of them would obediently choose to surrender.
Of course, there are also those soldiers who are loyal to Lan Haolin. However, in front of the 30,000 troops, there is no big wave at all.
"Awesome! So awesome!" Al Zhanhu stood beside Xia Fan and witnessed all this, and couldn't help but exclaim at him repeatedly.
Although the barbarians advocate personal force very much, they will never deny their power in the face of such powerful magic weapons. Especially when looking at the spectacular but powerful attack just now, every barbarian will inevitably think, what would happen if I were facing such an attack, and then I felt powerless to resist.
They had fought with the poisonous scorpion warriors and suffered the loss of being immobile, so they felt more and more that Xia Fan's move was quite powerful.
"Thank you for your compliment." Xia Fan said with a smile. Of course he would not tell Al Zhanhu that he had refined before had destroyed more than 9,000 scorpion eyes, so it would be impossible to do this next time. Of course, Xia Fan would not say such stupid words that reveal his shortcomings.
Although the barbarians have already come over, they can only be considered allies, not family members, so they still need to be prepared for them. What's more, even if they face allies, maintaining a certain deterrence will make their relationship closer.
Although it became quite easy to capture Baishi City due to the large-scale use of the fixed scorpion eyes during the siege, there were still many things to do in the future. For example, how to deal with the defenders in the city, clear up various hidden passages that may be hidden in various parts of the city, and completely take down the city moat formation, so as to completely control the entire Baishi City in your own hands. These are all very troublesome but need to be done.
The only thing that makes people worry is that due to the special terrain of Baishi City, most of the city are defenders, and there are not many civilians living here, so it also saves a lot of investigations to clear out the troubles of spies hidden in it.
Although there were many trivial matters after occupying Baishi City, most of them did not need Xia Fan to worry about. Basically, he handed it over to Yu Kongyue and Bu Fenghou to do it because he had more important things to do, that is, to prepare to deal with the 300,000 army that Lan Haolin sent to Chu Jiangpo.
Once Chu Jiangpo died, no one would accept the 300,000 troops, but they were not as leaderless as the defenders of Baishi City, because these 300,000 troops were drawn from the various troops under his command under Lan Haolin. Therefore, before the 300,000 troops gathered together, they must have been led by the original generals.
Now Chujiangpo is gone, and under the leadership of the original generals, the morale of the army is still stable. Although the morale has been slightly reduced, the impact is not great. After all, most of them have never seen Chujiangpo, so even if they hear that he is dead, no one will be affected. There are even many people secretly glad that these people have heard of some of the bad reputations of Chujiangpo.
According to Xia Fan's initial idea, of course, he wanted to mobilize the 80,000 troops in his hand, the 100,000 soul soldiers in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and the six or seven thousand barbarians headed by Al Zhanhu, to defeat the 300,000 Lan Yu Kingdom army in one fell swoop.
In this way, Lan Haolin's army has been reduced by a large part again, which not only can relieve the pressure on Lu Chuan, but also can make the battle situation of the entire Lan Yu Kingdom more beneficial to him. At the same time, Xia Fan also wanted to carefully select some elite soldiers and generals from the 300,000 army to join him. While strengthening his own strength, he also accumulates strength for the subsequent plans.
However, although Xia Fan's plan was good, he found that he still underestimated the intelligence system of Lan Yuguo and Lan Haolin's reaction speed.
Just after Chujiangpo was killed and Baishi City was captured, the 300,000 troops who were rushing to Baishi City at full speed suddenly stopped the march. After moving seven or eight hundred miles westward, they stationed in a place called Yunhuanhu.
The scenery of Yunhuan Lake is very beautiful. The vast lake with a radius of more than a thousand miles is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, so it is named Yunhuan. It is definitely a well-known tourist destination in Lanyu Kingdom.
In addition to the pleasant scenery, due to the dense water network and fertile land, Yunhuanhu Lake is also one of the most important grain production areas in the Lanyu Kingdom. Basically, the rice produced in the Yunhuanhu Lake basin was enough to supply 30 to 40% of the entire Lanyu Kingdom's grain. Because of this, for Lanyu Kingdom, this place is really important.
Because it is important, even during the Taiping New Year, there will be many soldiers stationed in Yunhuanhu. Now Lan Haolin and Lu Chuan are fighting back and forth, so Lan Haolin, who occupied Yunhuanhu, will certainly have more strict protection for this place. After all, in addition to people, there are money and food in the war itself.
If there is no food, not to mention the soldiers in the army, the people in the territory alone will not be able to stand it.
In order to ensure the stability of his own food supply, Lan Haolin increased the number of defenders in Yunhuanhu to 100,000 as soon as he took power. At the same time, he also reserved a lot of various materials.
