Martial Arts Assassin Master

Chapter 222 Decisive battle between the two armies
The next day, early morning, outside Xuanwu City.

Xu Beifeng led the army in formation, with great momentum.

Zhao Fanxing hid in the dark, looking at the dense crowd, with a myriad of thoughts.

At the same time, on the top of Xuanwu City, a young man stood there, looking at Xu Beifeng.

He was wearing a dark green brocade robe, with slender arms and a very dull expression, looking like an idiot.

At this moment, Xu Beifeng shouted: "King Zhao, can you open the city and surrender?"

The young man shook his head: "Of course not."

Although his expression was dull, his voice was loud and full of energy.

Zhao Fanxing also confirmed the identity of this person, it was Zhao Wang Zhugexu.

Xu Beifeng began to laugh wildly: "King Zhao, those who know the current affairs are the best. You must have never heard of this sentence, right?"

Zhuge Xu nodded: "Of course I have."

Xu Beifeng added: "I have an army of 80. As long as I surround your city and cut off your supplies, within a month, you will be short of food and grass, and your morale will be low."

Speaking of this, Xu Beifeng revealed a look of complacency: "At that time, if I send troops to attack again, you will definitely be defeated!"

Zhuge Xu replied dully; "If you lose, just lose. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists."

Xu Beifeng opened his eyes wide: "What? You're not afraid of losing?"

Zhuge Xu said: "Of course this king is not afraid."

Negotiations between the two parties reached a deadlock.

Zhao Fanxing was also secretly happy.

He suddenly remembered a saying he had heard before, "There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people."

Xu Beifeng was also silent for a while, and then shouted: "Okay, King Zhao, you are so courageous, this general admires you, let the whole army attack!"

With that said, the 80-strong army formed a formation and rushed towards Xuanwu City.

At the front are infantrymen with a large square shield in their left hand and a long sword in their right.

They raised their big shields high and marched at every step.

Most of the sharp arrows shot by the archers on the city wall were blocked by the large shield and did not cause any damage.

However, Zhuge Xu had expected this.

He immediately asked the soldiers to take out the rolling logs and rocks that had been prepared a long time ago, and threw them down from the top of the city.

"Crash!" Many infantrymen had just set up the ladders and were about to climb, but they were smashed down by these things and seriously injured.

At the same time, tens of thousands of cannons at the top of the city also launched an attack.

The shells fell like a barrage, hitting the enemy's position and exploding one after another.

Many infantry soldiers were turned into "cannon fodder" and blown to pieces.

But Xu Beifeng had a large number of troops, so he didn't care about this loss.

His artillerymen also took out their shells and began to bombard the walls.

"Boom boom boom!" A large number of shells hit and exploded on the city wall.

And at the moment they exploded, a large amount of cold air was released, freezing the archers on the top of the city into ice cubes.

What?Ice cannonball?

Zhao Fanxing was a little surprised, he never expected that Xu Beifeng would use "ice stone" to forge such a weapon.

The shells kept coming, and soon gained the upper hand.

Archers continued to be frozen into ice cubes and lost their combat effectiveness.

Without the threat of sharp arrows, the infantry below the city climbed up the city wall one after another, and fought hand-to-hand with the soldiers in the city.

For a while, the shouts of killing continued, and the defenders of Xuanwu City became more and more passive.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Fanxing knew that he could no longer fish in troubled waters.

"Lingbo Weibu!" He used Qinggong, flew up, and moved quickly on the battlefield.

After Xu Beifeng's archers saw him, they bent their bows and arrows and shot at the target.

In an instant, thousands of ice arrows were shot.

"Broken Arrow Style!" Zhao Fanxing did not stop, but cast "Dugu Nine Swords", drew the sword out of its sheath, turned around, and swept the long sword along the way.

The sword light flickered, and these sharp arrows were all split in two and fell to the ground.

In this way, relying on powerful sword moves, Zhao Fanxing overcame obstacles all the way to the artilleryman.

The infantry guarding nearby immediately raised their large square shields and slammed into him.

"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!" Zhao Fanxing immediately put his sword back into its sheath, waved his palms, and attacked the enemy's large shield with the wind of his palms.

"Boom boom boom!" His palm wind was so powerful that it directly blew the enemy's large wooden shield into pieces.

The infantrymen lost their protection and were blown away and fell to the ground.

However, Zhao Fanxing's offensive remained unabated, he swung his palm quickly, and slapped the enemy's chest and vital points on the face.

"Crack!" His palm was so powerful that it quickly shattered the infantryman's skull and heart.

These enemies also died with screams.

Seeing this, the remaining infantry fighters were terrified and did not dare to attack. Instead, they stayed where they were, formed a defensive formation, and stood in front of the artillerymen.

The artillerymen also turned their guns, aimed at him, and fired a large number of ice shells.

"The big shift of the universe!" Zhao Fanxing was prepared, and quickly waved his hands, pulled and moved all the shells, changed direction, and sent them back intact.

"Boom boom boom!" For a moment, the ice shell exploded in the enemy's formation.

Many artillerymen were blown up by their own shells and turned into ice, unable to attack anymore.

All of a sudden, Zhao Fanxing rushed left and right in an army of tens of thousands of people by virtue of his peerless miraculous skills, as if entering a land without people.

He suddenly thought of "Zhao Zilong".

Is my current behavior stronger than this guy?

Zhao Fanxing was extremely excited and continued to attack.

The archers rushed over again, bowed their bows and set their arrows, and continued to shoot.

"Snow-melting saber technique!" Seeing the icy sharp arrows coming continuously, Zhao Fanxing drew his saber out of its sheath, slashing and rushing towards the enemy.

However, his sword skills were gentle and fast, and he quickly cut off the sharp arrows.

Zhao Fanxing also came to the enemy.

"Meteor Sword Rain!" He performed the "Seven Styles of Overlord Sword", jumped high, and slashed repeatedly with his sword.

The sword light fell from the sky like a meteor shower, attacking the enemy.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the archers hurriedly ran back.

But their movements were too slow, they couldn't dodge in time, they were hit continuously in the chest and lower abdomen, they were disemboweled one after another, and fell into a pool of blood.

"Ah!" There were screams one after another.

Some of the archers died due to excessive blood loss, and the rest were also seriously injured.

Zhao Fanxing immediately held the knife in both hands and continued to chop.

With the flash of the knife, these enemies had their throats cut off and died completely.

In this way, with the help of Zhao Fanxing, the ice shells fired by the artillerymen were effectively suppressed.

Xuanwu City also recovered from the precarious situation.

However, Xu Beifeng still had a huge advantage in numbers.

Coupled with the high morale of his troops, they continued to attack.

Although the defenders of Xuanwu City were united as one and resisted tenaciously, they were still unable to repel the powerful enemy because of their small numbers.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Fanxing decided to kill Xu Beifeng, regardless of whether this person was a stand-in or not.

After making up his mind, he performed lightness kung fu and flew up.

There are still archers shooting behind them.

But Zhao Fanxing used the "Marrow Cleansing Sutra" to release a wall of energy all over his body, blocking the enemy's sharp arrows.

He also flew towards Xu Beifeng.
