Chapter Fifty: The World-Renowned Poetry Shows Its Initial Power
At this moment, the demons have already besieged the city. Their vast and powerful army exudes an overwhelming demonic aura, making people tremble with fear.
"kill!"
General Chen Yuanxue, the commander of the garrison, suddenly waved his hand and wrote "A Gentleman on Duty," which boosted the morale of the entire army by 20%.
With the morale boost, countless arrows rained down on the army like a torrential downpour.
"Conquer this city! The nineteen prefectures of Yanbei will then become the twenty prefectures of Yanbei!"
Countless demons laughed loudly, exhaling streams of demonic mist that formed armor, blocking all the arrows.
His smile was full of arrogance.
"What should we do? Normal attacks are completely useless against them."
"Report! The First Army has fallen, and the city gates are about to be breached!"
A lieutenant said urgently, and before he could finish speaking, another voice came.
boom!
At this moment, the demons had already besieged the city, constantly ramming the city gates, causing the city walls to shake.
"General, please give me twenty breaths. I have a way to break it."
As the general grew anxious, Ye Ru stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.
"You? You're a student who has only completed the preliminary examinations? What skills do you possess?"
The general didn't seem to care at all and said...
The people around him looked down on him, but what he said next surprised them all.
“I once wrote a poem that was widely circulated in the world, but because I did not reach the required literary rank, it was handed over to the Temple of Literature and kept in seclusion.”
Ye Rudao.
"Alright, the city gate's defenses should only last for about twenty seconds. Rather than waiting to be defeated, we should fight with our backs to the wall!"
Shocked, Chen Yuanxue pondered for a moment before issuing the order.
"it is good!"
"The ancient rivers and mountains remain, but where can one find the hero Sun Quan? The pavilions and stages for dancing and singing, all the splendor has been swept away by wind and rain. The setting sun shines on the grass and trees, the ordinary alleys and lanes, people say that Liu Yu once lived here. Thinking back to those years, with golden spears and iron horses, his spirit was as fierce as a tiger swallowing up ten thousand miles!"
It took a full twenty seconds to finish writing the first stanza. At the same time, the city gate was breached, which made everyone's hearts sink and a sense of despair appeared in their hearts.
"It's over."
Countless people murmured in their hearts.
"The city gates have been breached; we have no choice but to fight to the death!"
"Hahaha, the city gates have been breached, and you will be slaves of us demons!"
Hearing the demon's arrogant words, Chen Yuanxue clenched his fists and a ferocious look appeared on his face. However, just as he was about to turn around and fight back against the enemy, the murderous aura here began to materialize. Countless soldiers descended as if from the sky, carrying the momentum of golden spears and iron horses, and struck the demon head-on!
Boom boom boom!
These heavenly soldiers, transformed from talents, charged at the demons with unparalleled bravery. In an instant, shrill screams echoed one after another.
This actually withstood the power of the demons this time.
The guards at Yunguan City were horrified at the sight, but then overjoyed.
"The Yuanjia era was hasty, the sealing of the wolf's lair was achieved, but only a hasty retreat northward was gained. Forty-three years have passed, and I still remember the beacon fires along the Yangzhou road. How can I bear to look back, at the shrine of Emperor Wen of Song, where only crows and drums remain? Who will ask, 'Is Lian Po old and still able to eat?'"
After the second stanza was written, his eight-foot-long talent leaped from the paper, transforming into countless streams of light that shone upon the soldiers.
The power of calligraphy increases by one level.
The power of the battle poem increases by 10%.
The power of global war rhetoric increases by 40%.
Original poems are 30% more powerful.
The power of a student who has passed the preliminary examination is increased by one-tenth.
This directly doubled the power of Ye Ru's world-renowned war poem!
Countless people felt as if they were bathed in a spring breeze, and all their negative emotions, such as injuries and fatigue, were swept away.
This scene made Chen Yuanxue burst into laughter, and he said to Ye Ru with great joy:
"If we can hold out until the Half-Saint arrives, you, Ye Ru, will be credited with the greatest merit!"
"Cough cough."
When Ye Ru wrote this poem, his talent was almost completely exhausted. He never expected that using this poem to attack would be such a waste of his talent.
However, he had a feeling that he was about to reach the second realm of war poetry, the realm of beacon fires and smoke.
Those soldiers, formed from talent, left a trail of agonizing screams wherever their weapons struck.
Because they knew no fear, they only followed Ye Ru's orders to attack.
This shocked and enraged the demons, causing a gust of demonic wind to rise, and four little devils appeared on each demon's body.
This directly quadrupled their army!
As soon as these little devils appeared, they leaped toward the city wall.
"These are demons and monsters!" Chen Yuanxue shouted sharply, then pointed at the city gate:
"The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits!"
Chen Yuanxue used the inner strength of the book to directly utter the famous sayings of Confucius. Immediately afterwards, those words of the sage appeared, and finally, like the sun, they shone with myriad rays of light.
When these rays of light touched the demons and monsters, they were as if struck a severe blow, instantly turning into several wisps of green smoke.
"No, there are too many enemy troops. I can't do it alone."
Chen Yuanxue's expression changed drastically as he watched the demons sweeping towards the city gate like a tidal wave.
At the same time, many students who passed the preliminary examinations and those who passed the county-level examinations lacked talent.
Without talent, they are nothing more than weak and powerless scholars.
"boom!"
"The city gates have been breached!"
The lieutenant's eyes were bloodshot, and his body was covered in demonic blood.
"Come with me out of the city and fight the demons to the death!"
Chen Yuanxue took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, picked up his weapon, and turned to run wildly toward the city gate.
Ye Ru, with a resolute expression, received a bronze sword and immediately joined the battle.
The human soldiers opened the city gates and surged forward like bees, directly engaging the demons in battle.
The two battlefields were like a meat grinder, with the blood of humans and demons swirling around, quickly staining the land red with blood and filling the air with a stench that stretched for miles.
"Killing one is enough, killing two is a bonus. In any case, as long as we hold out until the Great Confucian Scholar or the Half-Saint arrives, we will win!"
The human soldiers shouted loudly.
"Yes! All soldiers, follow me and fight! With hearts of unwavering loyalty and blood!"
With a wave of his hand and a bite of his tongue, the lieutenant spat out a mouthful of blood, which automatically transformed into the most powerful and righteous poem, crashing into the demons.
boom!
Instantly, a massive number of demons and monsters were killed or wounded!
The lieutenant's body shrank at a visible speed, and in the end, the demon tore off his arm and then began to bite it.
Ye Ru's eyes were bloodshot, and he severed the demon's head with a single sword stroke.
"careful!"
At that moment, a fierce demonic wind rushed towards Ye Ru, but as Ye Ru's pupils dilated rapidly, the deputy general directly blocked Ye Ru's path.
boom!
The lieutenant's body was pierced through, and blood was flowing freely.
"Young Master Tongsheng, if you manage to return alive, please remember to give my regards to my parents."
Looking at the unyielding deputy general who stood like a mountain, Ye Ru clenched his fists tightly, tears streaming down his face.
He knew why the human race was able to stand firm despite being attacked from both sides.
The reason is that everyone possesses a strong sense of righteousness and a determination to sacrifice their lives for the human race at any time.
"Young brother...please...for the sake of humanity...may humanity be at peace..."
The lieutenant was smiling, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and he did not fall, but in the blink of an eye he was torn to pieces by the demon.
