Coincidentally, just south of the ancient market, in a dense forest less than three miles away from this bustling town, the same iron arrows were flying through, as dense as rain.
It was a rain of arrows splashed from the river surface by two ten thousand stone iron and wood warships.
Hundreds of military crossbows continued to diffuse, causing a wailing sound inside the dense forest.
Rockets were shot out one after another, igniting the dry trees in the forest.
At first, the people in the forest could not bear it. But when the fire was ignited and the forest was filled with smoke, a group of figures wearing helmets and carrying armor swarmed out of the dense forest.
But what greeted them was a denser barrage of heavy arrows. A large number of soldiers wearing Daning standard armor fell to the ground, blood flowing everywhere.
At this time, there was also an angry curse in the forest: "Iron Madman! You are so brave, you dare to use the warships and crossbows to shoot my soldiers of the Tianping Army. I think you want to rebel!"
The Iron Maniac was standing on the bow of an ironwood warship with his hands clasped behind his back, and a red iron gun about two feet long was stuck to his side.
He burst out laughing when he heard this: "General Wei is joking, where did the Tianping Army come from here? Shouldn't your officers and men of the Tianping Army stay in Hansha Town, which is seventy miles away? Or is it that General Wei sent his troops away without orders?
Camp? You ignored the military orders of the imperial court, what exactly do you want to do——"
At this moment, a black armored figure suddenly rushed out of the forest.
The wave of his power swept away all the arrows around him, and in just a moment, he rushed to the front of Iron Madman. As this man waved his mace, countless waves surged around the battleship, and the surrounding river was suppressed.
Drop one foot.
Behind this person, a huge illusory stone mountain appeared.
"What a Cangshan weapon!"
The Iron Maniac stood motionless on the bow of the ship. He reached out and held the red iron gun at his side, then tilted the iron gun.
With the sound of "clang", the guns and maces clashed, and the big iron gun was bent downwards.
The arc of the iron gun became more and more curved, and just when everyone thought that the gun was about to bend. The iron madman shook his hand casually, and the gun body rebounded instantly, bypassing the iron mace like a poisonous dragon, and hit the opponent.
Aspect door.
The armored general had a cold look on his face. He waved his iron mace and sealed the iron spear. However, he was also blasted to the shore and slid back dozens of feet on the ground.
But the iron madman's majestic spear power was not exhausted. Not only did it split the river surface into two, but it also blasted a ravine more than twenty feet long on the embankment.
The Iron Armored General did not take action after he came ashore. He looked at the Iron Maniac with cold eyes: "Let your people stop! I will admit defeat today. You let my soldiers return to camp. I will guarantee that after today, the Tianping Army will not interfere again."
The disputes in your Xiushui County. Iron Madman, you cannot bear the crime of massacring the imperial soldiers and horses!"
"There are only a bunch of thieves here, where are the soldiers and horses from the imperial court?"
Tie Kuangren spoke in a narrow voice, but he still flicked his robe sleeves and signaled his subordinates to stop the rain of arrows: "But you Wei Lai is a trustworthy person, so Tie can trust you once."
When the armored general saw that the arrow rain had stopped, he looked slightly relieved.
"I will keep my word and do what I say."
He looked at Iron Maniac with deep meaning in his eyes: "But I would also like to advise you, Lord Iron Banner, your ambition is too great! A powerful man in the world dares to monopolize the water transportation of Shenxiu River. He is so bold and ambitious.
.
Nowadays, there are countless people in Xiushui County who want to get rid of your brothers. If the leader of the Iron Banner still doesn't know how to stop, Wei will be in Hansha Town, waiting for your two brothers to be defeated."
After saying this, the armored general had no intention of staying any longer. He turned around and strode towards the dense forest behind him. Wherever he passed, the blazing flames around him were all extinguished.
Previously, he was afraid of the sudden attack by Iron Maniac's 'Pagoda Spear' and did not dare to disperse his true energy, but now he no longer has such worries.
The Iron Maniac turned a deaf ear to the Iron Armored General's words. He turned around and looked at the bustling market opposite.
"Go to the ancient market! I'll go first, and you guys will follow. By the way, has the deputy flag master rescued anyone?"
He was asking about a seventh-level magician wearing a green robe beside him.
This person has been using magic to observe the scene inside the ancient market.
"The young man named Chu is safe and sound." A strange color appeared in the eyes of the seventh-level magician: "Just now, Heng Wei was holding Du Hong's rune eagle sword and was fighting to the death with the little brother, but he was killed by him with two swords.
.”
Since the Battle of the Fire Bone Cave, the Iron Flag Gang has clearly investigated the true identity and characters of the Long family.
So he knew that Heng Wei was someone Long Heng strongly favored.
The eldest son of the Long family didn't know what he was planning, but he always hoped to send Heng Wei to the Zhengyang Martial Arts School's true gate wall.
"Can he kill Hengwei who wields the Rune Eagle Sword?"
The Iron Maniac was taken aback. He blinked in surprise, and then laughed: "This is really a young hero."
When he finished speaking, the figure had slipped out from the bow of the boat and was ten feet away.
The iron madman held his iron gun upside down, stepped on the river, and flew towards the ancient market.
Today was a good opportunity to round up and kill the ice snake of the Long family. He was worried that if he went too late, the snake would escape.
※※※※
Tie Kuangren was still a step late. When he arrived at the ancient market, Long Heng had disappeared.
Tie Kuangren frowned and looked at his brother Tie Xiaosheng with strange eyes.
He laid a dragnet in the ancient market.
In addition to Tie Xiaosheng, eight hundred gang members, eight masters of the seventh level of Yuan Gong, were also arranged.
Can Long Heng escape from this?
Even the few experts that Long Heng brought to the ancient market, such as Elder Long Shifei and others, could not keep it.
"What do you want me to do?" Tie Xiaosheng looked embarrassed and annoyed: "That guy was so slippery that he led people to hide in Shibosi Yamen. I can't rush into Shibosi and kill people."
About twenty-seven years ago, in order to increase tax revenue, Emperor Jianyuan of the present day established 129 shipping offices in the port markets along the coasts and rivers of the world.
The Shibosi of the ancient market is one of them.
Although the powerful gentry in Dongzhou tried their best to resist taxes, the shipping department of this ancient market has never been able to play its role. But this yamen, after all, symbolizes the authority of the emperor.
Tie Xiaosheng then looked at the Nanjie Temple Market in the distance with resentment: "And that Zuo Qingyun is also a bastard!"
If it hadn't been for this person's interference, Long Heng would never have thought of escaping into the Shifusi Yamen.
No matter what, there must be an arm under his sword.
"Shibo Division?"
Tie Kuangren immediately glanced at the tightly guarded Shibosi Yamen three streets away.
His spiritual sense sensed that inside the yamen, there were more than a hundred soldiers holding weapons, hiding behind the door wall.
Unexpectedly, even the shipping company hooked up with the Long family——
He then smiled casually: "Forget it! Just let him stay here. It is easy for this snake to cross the river, but it will be difficult to return to the west bank."
Tie Xiaosheng walked up to a young man not far away with a cold expression.
This man was about thirteen years old, with a high nose and deep eyes, his clothes were messy, and his body was stained with blood. He was being held by two cavalry gang members by his arms and forced to kneel on the ground.
——That’s Long Sheng, the second young master of the Long family!
The Long family only had a few seventh-grade martial arts cultivators who entered the ancient market, and they were lucky enough to follow Long Heng and retreat into the market.
The rest of the seventh rank and below were all captured or killed by Tie Xiaosheng's men, including the second young master of the Long family.
"What do you want to do?" Long Sheng saw Tie Xiaosheng pull out the heavy sword, and his eyes suddenly showed fear: "I am a direct descendant of the Long family, the hereditary flag officer of the Imperial Guard, you dare to kill me?"
Endless regret grew in his chest.
He just wanted to witness Chu Xisheng's death with his own eyes.
Longsheng thought that with the help of the Tianping Army in this battle, and because of his calculations and unintentional intentions, the Long family had no reason to lose, so he followed his brother into the dangerous situation.
If he had known what would happen now, he would never have crossed the Shenxiu River.
Tie Xiaosheng laughed and chopped off Long Sheng's head with a sword.
I failed to kill Long Heng in this battle, so I took out my anger on this young snake first.
