Chapter 2231 - The Formation Breaks! Reversal! (1/2)

“If that’s so, I don’t mind killing one or two gods, or rather, so-called gods, wiping them from this world. You like controlling things from behind the curtains, lurking in the shadows, so I’ll ensure that all of you return to the darkness.”

In this contest of words, Wang Chong refused to back down.

Buzz!

Genesis Supreme’s pupils constricted, and his face turned cold.

“Hmph, let this god see how capable you are!”

Bang! Genesis Supreme shot high into the sky, vanishing into the snowstorm.

On the other side, Wang Chong shot into the sky as well.

Soldier versus soldier and general versus general. Only Wang Chong could deal with Genesis Supreme, and vice versa.

This battle was important to both of them. Genesis Supreme wanted to complete Heaven’s Purification plan, so he needed to kill Wang Chong.

Boomboomboom!

Genesis Supreme and Wang Chong quickly disappeared into the clouds, and the heavens began to rumble and groan.

As the two battled in the skies, on the ground, more and more soldiers began to mount the walls.

The snowstorm hindered vision, making things much easier for the side attacking the city. Moreover, in the previous battle, the Great Tang had consumed much of its kerosene. Thus, this attack on the city was much smoother for the alliance.

“Axemen, get ready!” a Tang general called out, and a moment later, tens of thousands of axemen with giant axes marched onto the walls, their armor clattering.

Roooar!

The axemen roared and began to hack wildly at the alliance soldiers mounting the walls.

Their movements were extremely simple, swinging horizontally or vertically, their attacks sweeping and powerful.

Alliance soldiers miserably howled as they plunged from the walls. At this height, a fall meant either death or heavy injury.

Even so, the Great Tang could not stop the alliance assault.

“Kill!”

Suddenly, with an enraged bellow, a Divine Aegis soldier lunged out like a tiger, his arms imbued with so much strength that they were able to knock several axemen off the walls.

And more Divine Aegis soldiers swiftly followed.

Clangclangclang!

The Tang soldiers on the walls reacted swiftly, and various sabers and swords swung in from all sides. But amidst flashing sparks, all of the weapons bounced off.

All the Tang soldiers grimaced at this sight.

Suddenly, a voice as loud as a bell rang out. “Stand aside! Leave these people to us!”

Invincible Great General Li Siye!

In heavy armor and wielding his giant sword, he strode onto the wall.

Bang!

Li Siye’s expression was determined as he swung his Wootz Steel sword. With a scream, a Divine Aegis soldier was struck and sent flying out from the wall like a ragdoll.

Moreover, the sharp Wootz Steel edge had cut open the Divine Aegis armor and fractured it at the waist, causing blood and organs to spill out.

But though the Divine Aegis armor had been cut open, the Wootz Steel weapon did not completely cut through it like it did with normal armor.

“The Mo Saber is invincible!”

Right behind Li Siye, tens of thousands of Mo Saber soldiers appeared on the walls, and with a mountain-toppling momentum, they instantly suppressed the Divine Aegis soldiers that were scaling the walls.

The battle was much more gruesome than anyone could have imagined. Many alliance soldiers were able to reach the top of the walls via ropes, the metal plates attached to the walls through those unique arrow bolts, and the siege towers. Even though they suffered heavy losses, so did the Tang, and from time to time, Tang soldiers would plummet from the walls.

Seeing more and more Tang soldiers falling and the alliance soldiers pushing deeper and deeper into the walls, Xu Keyi coldly issued an order. “Tell the reserve divisions to reinforce the walls!”

The battle had not been going on for very long, but it was abnormally intense. With each passing moment, both sides lost a significant number of soldiers.

However, as An Lushan watched from the distance, he gave no indication that he would call for a retreat.

He was abnormally calm, apparently ready to fight this battle to the last man.

The hearts of those manning the walls were heavy.

Amongst the various kinds of battles, city defense battles were the most time-consuming. Excluding a small number of exceptions, they would normally go on for months, even years. It was basically impossible for the alliance to take this fortress manned by so many Tang elites.

Both sides were stubborn and persistent, without the slightest inclination to retreat.

Creee!
