559: Chapter 559 Charge onto the City Wall!
At this moment, for Xiang Yu, the situation was becoming increasingly perilous.
As Xiang Yu continued to rise up the wall, the momentum of his upward charge had been exhausted, and it looked as though his body was about to plummet toward the ground.
And he was still five or six meters away from the top of the wall!
That was as high as two stories!
Xiang Yu gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with a look of unwillingness.
“Yuer!”
Watching this scene, Xiang Liang also felt a deep sense of unwillingness.
With Xiang Yu's extraordinary combat power, if he managed to charge onto the wall, wouldn't he be able to slay gods and buddhas alike!
As long as Xiang Yu could carve out a blood-soaked path and open the city gates from within.
Then Long Que, Yu Ziqi, Xiang Bo, and the others outside the wall could rush through the gates; with their martial prowess, they could definitely hold the wall firmly.
At that time, their main army could drive straight in, swarm into the city, and crush the defenders.
“That gave me a fright!”
The tense nerves of Rajesh Singh Delrosia and Shankara Sharma relaxed instantly, and they both exhaled a long sigh of relief in unison.
Their foreheads were covered in fine beads of sweat; just a moment ago, they were truly terrified that Xiang Yu might charge onto the wall in one breath.
If that had really happened, then in their eyes, Xiang Yu would no longer be a mortal, but a terrifying monster.
Fortunately, Xiang Yu's current performance seemed to still be within the realm of what they could accept.
Rajesh Singh Delrosia once again aimed his bow and arrow at Xiang Yu.
“Yuer!”
Through his binoculars, Xiang Liang's gaze was locked tightly onto Xiang Yu's figure.
He naturally saw Rajesh Singh Delrosia aiming his arrow at Xiang Yu again.
He broke into a cold sweat for Xiang Yu once more.
“Overlord!”
Long Que, Yu Ziqi, Xiang Bo, and the others were also facing a rain of arrows, and they had to hide behind cover while keeping an eye on Xiang Yu.
After they saw Xiang Yu being targeted by the bow, their eyes were fixed on him, their hands unconsciously clenched into fists, silently praying for him in their hearts.
“Ah!”
Xiang Yu let out a roar, his eyes sharpening as he suddenly gripped the domineering Overlord Spear in his hand and, using all his strength, thrust it violently into a crack between the stones of the wall.
The Overlord Spear was firmly embedded in the stone crevice.
Using the shaft of the Overlord Spear as a horizontal bar, Xiang Yu's body moved like a bolt of black lightning, instantly completing a 180-degree rotation and landing steadily on the shaft of the spear.
However, the shaft of the Overlord Spear could not withstand Xiang Yu's heavy frame and sank abruptly.
But this did not affect Xiang Yu's plan; he seized the moment and stepped hard on the shaft, using its elasticity to launch himself upward again like an arrow from a bow.
He kicked off the wall twice with his toes; each kick provided him with more upward force.
His gaze was as sharp as a hawk's, staring fixedly at an archery slit on the wall. Seizing the opportunity, his hands, like iron pincers, accurately gripped the opening.
Before the soldiers inside could react and frantically try to stab him with their weapons, Xiang Yu erupted with incredible power. He pushed off with his hands and kicked the wall again, his body soaring high like a Great Peng spreading its wings.
Then, with a loud 'boom', his heavy body landed hard on the city wall, kicking up a cloud of dust.
