Chapter 129: Crisis in Fireworks City

Qin Feng, Lie Feng and Ming Yan hurried all the way and finally arrived at Fireworks City before the Dark Cult launched an attack. Fireworks City is a city built on the mountain. The buildings in the city are scattered and the city walls are tall and solid. It is an important military stronghold in the western part of the continent.

"The defenses here seem pretty solid." Liefeng stood on the city wall and looked around. "But if the Dark Cult really attacks with all their might, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold out for long."

"We have to deploy defensive measures as soon as possible." Qin Feng said. He knew that time was very tight.

The three of them quickly found the commander of Fireworks City, an old general named Xiao Lie. Xiao Lie was over sixty years old, but still energetic, with an unyielding fighting spirit in his eyes.

"Are you the elite team sent by the parliament?" Xiao Lie looked Qin Feng and the others up and down, then nodded, "You are young and promising. I hope you can help us defend Firework City."

"We will do our best." Qin Feng said solemnly, "Now please tell us about the current defense situation."

Xiao Lie led the three of them to inspect the defense deployment in the city. Although Firework City had tight defenses, the defenders in the city were not fully prepared due to the sudden actions of the Dark Cult.

"The attack from the Dark Cult may come at any time. We must hurry up and strengthen our defense." Xiao Lie said, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

"We can assist you in setting up your defense line," Liefeng said, "especially the defense of the city wall, which must be further strengthened."

Qin Feng also put forward his own suggestions: "We can also set up some traps and obstacles outside the city to slow down the enemy's attack speed and buy more time."

After listening to their suggestions, Xiao Lie nodded and said, "Your suggestions are very useful. I will arrange them immediately."

The three of them split up and began to assist the defenders of Yanhuo City to strengthen their defense. Liefeng was responsible for setting up tactical positions on the city wall, Mingyan led a team of soldiers to set traps outside the city, and Qin Feng was responsible for coordinating the entire defense plan and ensuring coordination between various links.

"We must race against time." Qin Feng said in the command center, his eyes fixed on the map, constantly deducing possible tactical plans in his mind.

"The traps outside the city have been set." Mingyan returned to the headquarters and reported, "I have also placed obstacles at several key locations, which can effectively slow down the enemy's attack speed."

"Well done." Qin Feng nodded, "How is Liefeng doing?"

"The defensive positions on the city wall have been arranged, and we have also increased the number of archers." Liefeng also came to report, his face full of fighting spirit, "Now we are just waiting for the enemy to come."

"Okay." Qin Feng said, "We must remain highly vigilant. The Dark Cult may launch an attack at any time."

Just as the three were discussing defense strategies, suddenly, a low roar came from outside the city, as if the earth was shaking.

"The enemy is coming!" General Xiao Lie shouted loudly, and he quickly led the defenders to the city wall.

Qin Feng and others also rushed to the city wall immediately. They saw a dark shadow emerging on the distant horizon. It was the army of the Dark Sect, and they were rushing towards the Firework City like a tide.

"It's coming faster than we expected." Liefeng said calmly, his battle axe making a low humming sound in his hand, as if foreshadowing that a fierce battle was about to begin.

"Prepare for battle!" General Xiao Lie ordered loudly. The defenders on the city wall quickly entered combat status. The archers pulled their bowstrings to their full potential, and the crossbows were aimed at the enemies outside the city.

Qin Feng's eyes were like torches. He knew that this battle would be the key to whether they could defend the Firework City. The army of the Dark Cult was gradually approaching. They were wearing black armor, holding evil weapons, and exuding a strong murderous aura.

"Shoot!" With the order from General Xiao Lie, the archers on the city wall fired in unison, and the rain of arrows shot towards the enemy like a storm.

However, the Dark Cult's army was clearly well prepared. They raised their heavy shields and successfully blocked the first wave of arrows. Then, the Dark Cult's wizards began to cast evil spells. Several black beams shot out from the enemy's formation and hit the walls of Firework City.

"Pay attention to defense!" Qin Feng shouted loudly, and he quickly drew out the Dragon Shadow Sword and blocked a beam of light that was shot at him. Liefeng and Mingyan also showed their powerful strength, and they joined forces to resolve the enemy's attack.

"The strength of these guys should not be underestimated." Liefeng frowned. He felt that the opponent's attack contained a powerful dark force.

"We can't let them get close to the city wall!" Qin Feng said calmly, "Prepare the crossbows, aim at the enemy mages!"

Following his order, the crossbows on the city wall quickly adjusted their angles and locked onto the enemy's mage position. After a few dull roars, the huge crossbow arrows shot towards the enemy's position.

"Well done!" Liefeng shouted excitedly. He saw several enemy mages being hit by crossbow arrows and their formation was instantly thrown into chaos.

However, the Dark Cult's army did not retreat, they quickly adjusted their formation and continued to attack Firework City. The enemy's infantry began to climb the city wall, trying to directly break through the defense line.

"Prepare for close combat!" General Xiao Lie gave the order, and the soldiers on the city wall drew their weapons and prepared to fight the enemy.

Qin Feng and others also joined the battle, and they fought fiercely with the enemy on the city wall. The Dragon Shadow Sword was wielded by Qin Feng, bringing with it sharp sword energy, and the fierce wind battle axe was like splitting mountains and rocks, dissolving the enemy's attacks one by one.

"These guys are really fighting hard!" Liefeng shouted loudly, and his battle axe repelled several enemies who tried to climb the city wall.

"We must defend the city wall!" Qin Feng said calmly. He knew that once the city wall was lost, the entire Fireworks City would be in crisis.

Just as the battle was getting intense, suddenly, a dazzling light appeared on the distant horizon. Qin Feng looked up and found that it was a team of cavalrymen wearing golden armor, rushing towards the battlefield at a very fast speed.

"Is that... reinforcements?" Liefeng asked in surprise.

"That's right, it's our reinforcements!" General Xiao Lie said excitedly. He saw that the cavalry team was holding the flag of the Continental Coalition Forces in their hands, and they were obviously coming to support us.

The arrival of reinforcements changed the situation on the battlefield. The Dark Cult's army obviously did not expect reinforcements to arrive, and their formation began to become chaotic. The coalition cavalry quickly rushed into the enemy's formation and launched a fierce attack.

"We can't miss this opportunity!" Qin Feng shouted loudly, "The whole army will attack and completely defeat the enemy!"

Following his orders, the defenders in Fireworks City rushed out of the city walls and launched a counterattack against the Dark Cult's army together with the coalition cavalry. Qin Feng, Lie Feng and Ming Yan also rushed into the enemy camp. Together, they defeated several enemy squads, and the situation on the battlefield quickly reversed.

"These guys can't hold on for much longer!" Liefeng said excitedly, swinging his battle axe continuously to force the enemies back.

Qin Feng also felt that the enemy's morale was declining, and he knew that victory was just around the corner.

After a fierce battle, the Dark Cult's army finally couldn't bear the pressure and began to retreat. The allied cavalry took advantage of the victory and pursued the enemy, completely defeating them.

"We won!" General Xiao Lie shouted excitedly. He looked at the coalition forces on the battlefield and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Qin Feng and Lie Feng also smiled at each other. They knew that this victory not only defended the Firework City, but also dealt a major blow to the Dark Sect.

After the battle, the commander of the coalition came to visit Qin Feng and others. The commander was a tall general, and he highly appreciated the performance of Qin Feng and others.

"You have performed very well and successfully defended Firework City." The commander said, "We will continue to eliminate the remaining forces of the Dark Cult. I hope you can continue to cooperate with our actions."

"We will do our best." Qin Feng said solemnly. He knew that although the mission was over, the battle was far from over.

With the arrival of the coalition forces, the situation in Firework City gradually stabilized. Although Qin Feng and others performed well in the battle, they also knew that the threat of the Dark Sect still existed and the challenges in the future would only be more arduous.

"We must always remain vigilant." Qin Feng said to Lie Feng and Ming Yan, "This battle is just the beginning. There will be more difficulties waiting for us in the future."

"I'm ready." Liefeng said, with determination in his eyes.

Ming Yan nodded. Although he was taciturn, one could see from his eyes that he had accepted this team and was ready to face the next challenge with everyone.
